So Eric Trump is suing Jen Psaki. And I don't even care what the lawsuit is about. Seriously. At this point, if a Trump sues a Democrat, I assume somewhere there's a fax machine crying and three MSNBC producers stress-eating hummus.But I love the symbolism of it. Because for years these people weaponized government against Trump, weaponized the courts, weaponized intelligence agencies, weaponized leaks, weaponized social media. Democrats turned America into the world's first bureaucratic escape room. Every day under Trump was another clue: “To continue your presidency, solve this puzzle hidden inside a subpoena wrapped in a Russia hoax.”Now? Eric Trump says, “Cool. Your turn.”And suddenly the Left discovers legal fees are expensive when USAID isn't covering them.That's the beauty of MAGA. It's not just political anymore. It's cultural gravity. Trump didn't simply survive. He turned political persecution into a franchise model. Democrats thought they were building his prison cell. Instead they built a gymnasium where conservatives learned how to fight.And spare me this media fairy tale that MAGA is “falling apart.” They've been predicting the death of MAGA longer than Al Gore's been predicting the death of the planet. According to cable news, MAGA has died more times than Kenny on South Park.They tell us conservatives are furious with Trump over war policy, personality, tariffs, tone, Truth Social posts, golf scores, the angle of his tie, and probably the migration pattern of geese. Yet somehow, every Republican who publicly betrayed Trump politically evaporated like cheap cologne in Phoenix.Ten out of ten House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump? Gone.Five Republican Senators tied to impeachment efforts? Gone, including Bill Cassidy.The Bush dynasty? Politically taxidermied.Cheneys? The political equivalent of Circuit City.Romneys? Finished.Pence? Mike Pence has less support in the Republican Party than gluten-free biscuits at a Texas rodeo.And this matters historically because the Republican establishment used to operate like a country club with a velvet rope. You got approved by donors, consultants, think tanks, and guys named Whitaker who own loafers without socks. Trump bulldozed that system. MAGA voters looked at decades of “managed decline” from polished Republicans and said, “Maybe the billionaire from Queens screaming at CNN is onto something.”And here's the part the Left still cannot process: MAGA isn't held together by government dependency. That's why it survives attacks.Leftism? Different story entirely.Leftism would collapse inside a month if it had to survive without taxpayer subsidies and foreign influence money. One month. Thirty days. The political equivalent of a juice cleanse.Because modern Leftism produces almost nothing organically anymore. Every institution props it up artificially: academia, entertainment, NGOs, government grants, corporate DEI departments, media partnerships, foreign donors. It's the ideological version of a patient connected to fourteen machines going beep-beep-beep while MSNBC doctors stand around saying, “Vitals look strong!”No they don't.Imagine if Leftists had to balance a budget. Imagine if they had to run cities without deficits, corruption, or dependency. Imagine if they couldn't endlessly siphon taxpayer money into “equity initiatives” that somehow always end with consultants buying vacation homes.Meanwhile, conservatives already do what Leftists only hashtag about. They donate more privately. Volunteer more. Build businesses. Create jobs. Show up after disasters with chainsaws and bottled water instead of interpretive dance and pronoun worksheets.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Kevin Jackson Show, where common sense still has a pulse.You know, I spent some time recently out in the country. Fishing. Sitting with friends and business partners. No panels. No focus groups. No blue-check hysterics screaming about “our democracy” while eating ethically sourced quinoa from a bowl shaped like oppression.Just real people.And I'll tell you something that hit me like a shovel upside the head: Conservatives are winning, because conservatives still understand life at its molecular level. We understand how things actually work.You get up early. You work. You build. You solve problems. You help your neighbor because one day you might need him pulling your truck out of a ditch instead of posting a hashtag about your emotional journey.That's America.And the Left has drifted so far from that reality, they look like tourists in their own country. These people couldn't bait a hook if the fish signed a consent form. They've become entirely institutionalized. Everything they know comes from an app, an activist professor, or a nervous HR department.Out there in the country, nobody cares about your pronouns when the generator dies.Nobody asks your carbon footprint when rain's coming and fences need fixing.Nobody forms a committee to determine whether the fish feels “seen.”Reality has standards. That's why conservatism keeps winning every time life gets serious.And the Left can feel it happening. They're scattered right now. Fragmented. They don't even share a common purpose anymore beyond hating Donald Trump and trying to turn normal people into suspects.One faction wants socialism. Another wants censorship. Another wants open borders. Another thinks math is racist. Feminists are fighting trans activists. Environmentalists are fighting unions. Pro-Hamas activists are marching with people who think vegan cheese is violence. It's ideological dodgeball played inside a burning Whole Foods.Meanwhile conservatives are out here building businesses, raising families, creating wealth, producing energy, inventing technology, and yes, occasionally sitting by a lake with a fishing pole remembering that peace and quiet are still legal in parts of America.That contrast is what today's show is all about.Because while the media keeps trying to sell this fantasy that MAGA is collapsing, reality says otherwise. Trump's enemies keep disappearing politically. Woke cultural movements are sputtering out once the propaganda machine slows down. And every day Americans are rediscovering something simple but powerful:Common sense isn't extremist. It's survival.Today's lineup proves it.We'll get into the collapse of the anti-Trump Republicans, why the Left's cultural intimidation campaigns are failing, why Democrats can't survive without taxpayer oxygen tanks, and why the people lecturing America about tolerance increasingly look like the angriest cult members at the airport.And somewhere in there we'll talk about Thomas Massie, burner phones, Pride parade ghost towns, and the fascinating phenomenon of Democrats endorsing Republicans they secretly hope will help destroy the Republican Party from inside the building.So buckle up.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this final installment of our three-part series, we dive deep into the world of troublesome clients and the traps even experienced sales professionals like "Fresh Prince" (not his real name!) fall into. We look at the "quote-quote-quote" game where you send multiple invoices only to hear its "too expensive" and why this happens when you fail to use a proper conversation framework.I break down the BANT framework (Budget, Authority, Need, Timeline) as a simple mental map to qualify prospects before you ever hit "send" on a PDF. We discuss why money conversations must start with your mouth, not an invoice, and why "unprincipled concessions" are killing your profit margins and your status as a professional. You'll learn how to handle the "Big Boss" who offers "exposure" or "promotion" in exchange for a lower price, and why your greatest security in sales isn't closing one big deal, its prospecting. We wrap up with a secret trick: the absolute best time to pick up the phone and hunt for new business is immediately after you've collected a big commission, while your confidence is at its peak.

Matt Osman is back... and this time we're going deep on one tool that can dramatically reduce the cash you bring to a co-living acquisition: the invoice authorization.In simple terms, it's an addendum where the seller agrees to pay your contractor directly at closing. Done right, it lets you fold renovation costs into your loan, keep the seller whole, satisfy the lender, and walk into a co-living-ready property with a fraction of the out-of-pocket spend.Matt shares real examples (including a $100K invoice authorization on one deal), the front-end vs. back-end negotiation playbook, how to position it with listing agents, and why the appraisal is the linchpin of the whole strategy.Connect with Matt: Email: matt@investslb.com Ask about the Co-Living Agent AcceleratorFollow Us: Miller - www.instagram.com/millermcswainCraig - www.instagram.com/craigcurelopIf you got value from this one, share it with an investor who's about to close on a co-living property, it might save them five figures.

The Business Tools That Actually Keep Your VO Career Running One of the biggest misconceptions in voiceover is that success comes from talent plus a good booth. And yes, performance matters. Audio quality matters. But what actually creates consistency in this career is operational support. It's the systems you build that allow you to track opportunities, manage relationships, understand your income, organize your marketing, and reduce decision fatigue. Because decision fatigue is real, and it will stop you in your tracks and you will end up doing nothing. So today I want to walk you through some simple, accessible tools that you can use right now. Even if you don't have a team. Even if you don't have fancy software. Even if you feel completely disorganized. These are the tools that turn creative chaos into professional clarity. Excel or Google Sheets I know. A spreadsheet is not anyone's favorite thing. Nobody got into acting because they love spreadsheets. But spreadsheets give you something emotional actors often lack, which is objective data. If you don't have data, how will you know what's working and what isn't? How will you know how much time to keep spending on something or when to let it go or if you're underpricing yourself in a certain category? You can track auditions, bookings, client names, rates, follow-ups, usage conflicts, marketing outreach. When you track patterns you stop guessing. And we cannot have a successful career if we are constantly guessing. A spreadsheet is not restrictive. It's clarifying. Canva Canva is essentially the modern actor's design department. I know nothing about design and luckily Canva is there for social media graphics, pitch decks, rate sheets, lead magnets, ebooks, presentations. Actors often think marketing has to look DIY. It doesn't. Clean visual communication builds trust before you ever speak. I send cold leads lead magnets all the time. Sometimes it's an ebook like how to hire a voiceover actor or a checklist of what to expect when you've hired one. When you are the authority and expert in the room that's when you have true leadership within the role. Canva helps you look like a business with structure instead of a freelancer who's improvising. I use Canva Pro. You don't have to. There is plenty on the free version that makes it worth having in your arsenal. A Lightweight CRM When I say CRM a lot of actors panic. Customer relationship management systems can feel very corporate. But you can create a lightweight version with Airtable or Notion or even a spreadsheet. I have one I can send you the link to. The things you want to track are simple. Who you contacted, when, what their response was, what your email subject line was. Without those few things you can end up re-pitching the same person too soon or forgetting a warm lead entirely. Consistency beats charisma in client development. I promise you. A Calendar System Your calendar is not just for appointments. It's for marketing blocks, financial review days, audition batching, content creation, relationship maintenance. Actors live in reactive mode. A structured calendar helps you move into intentional career design. Time becomes something you allocate strategically instead of something that constantly feels like it's slipping away. When I transitioned into my block calendar system it changed my life. I know that sounds dramatic but I was constantly chasing minutes and feeling like I never had enough. Now I have control. I can actually plan things out and I'm never just too busy or not busy enough. It really did change my life. File Organization I know this sounds tiny. It is not. Clear folder systems on your desktop. Client name, project, scripts, finals. Demos organized by vertical and year. Invoices separated into paid and unpaid. Contracts sorted by active versus expired. When your files are organized you move faster. Speed is a competitive advantage in this industry, especially if you are working with agents or pay to plays. Disorganization creates friction that drains your creative energy. Spend twenty minutes on this. I promise you will feel so much better and more in control. A Password Manager This one is very adult and very real. My information was recently hacked and someone stole a significant amount of money from me and spent it all on DoorDash. I was very upset. Actors juggle casting sites, payment portals, editing software, social platforms. A password manager like LastPass or 1Password protects your business infrastructure. Security is professionalism. Nothing screams professional like having your shit together. A Capture System for Ideas Your brain is a constant working creative machine. But ideas disappear. How many times have you had a great idea and then completely lost it two minutes later? Use your notes app, voice memos, Notion boards, Trello. Capture content ideas, client leads, script concepts, branding language. Marketing consistency comes from capturing inspiration before it evaporates. I create a note, title it something like TikTok ideas, make a checkbox list, and add ideas as they come. When I've done it I check the box. I don't delete it because I might come back to it someday. I wish I had been doing this years ago. The Bottom Line Tools make you more sustainably creative. They don't make you less creative. They reduce chaos and they reduce the emotional decision-making spiral that actors can get wrapped up in. The actors who last in this business are not always the most naturally gifted. They're just the most together. Your homework this week is simple. Choose one tool and implement it imperfectly. It doesn't have to be beautiful or complete. Just begin. Because actors are not built in grand gestures. They are built in small systems that compound over time. Want to Keep the Conversation Going? Send me an email at mandy@actingbusinessbootcamp.com about the tools you're using or maybe a tool I haven't mentioned that's been a game changer for you. I love to hear from you. Find me on TikTok  or on Substack at The Actor's Index.    

In this episode, Logan and guest co-host Ryan Criswell tackle one of the most honest conversations in the event industry: being great at producing and planning events doesn't automatically make you great at running an event business. They explore the gap between event skills and business skills — from the early moments that revealed what they didn't know, to the systems and habits that have helped them grow on the business side. If you're an event planner or event producer who feels more confident behind a run-of-show than a balance sheet, this episode is for you.SHOW NOTES:Purchase our on-demand How to Start an Event Planning Business Workshop: https://bettereventspod.com/workshopLearn More About Ryan:Website: ⁠www.cutestoryevents.com⁠Instagram: ⁠www.instagram.com/cutestoryevents⁠LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-c-048216263/kedin.com%2Fin%2Fryan-c-048216263%2F⁠Facebook: ⁠www.facebook.com/cutestoryeventsLogan's YouTube Video on What to Include on an Invoice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iuac6BAwD7o&t=3sRegister interest for the 2026 Better Events Conference: https://forms.gle/caX87sth8DpgyZPi6Learn more about the pod, Better Events Conference and more: https://bettereventspod.com/the-latestWant our updated free run of show template?

Laura completed the work, sent the proposal, and then froze. The invoice is sitting there — unsent — because she's convinced this is the moment she loses a client she can't afford to lose. Clay and Preston dig into the freelancer's oldest enemy: the story you tell yourself before anything has actually gone wrong. They walk through exactly why she should send that invoice, how to respond if the client pushes back, and how to break the habit of catastrophizing before you've even given reality a chance.

"What you think of as the data isn't the right data."  This observation from FineTune COO Brian Gamble shines an (uncomfortable) spotlight on one of procurement's biggest challenges: AI has the potential to completely transform the function (in a good way) and drive a significant amount of value for the business, but only if organizations first acknowledge how inadequate their current data actually is. In the twenty-ninth episode of "Buy: The Way...To Purposeful Procurement," Philip Ideson, Rich Ham, and Kelly Barner reflect on recent conversations with procurement tech pioneer Jason Busch and category expert Brian Gamble. They explore the troubling reality that procurement's future with AI depends almost completely on having the right data, while most organizations don't even know what the right data looks like. This conversation exposes the gap between what practitioners call "the data" and what actually constitutes useful information for decision-making. Invoice details, contracts housed in various systems, and perhaps some quarterly business review reports make up most of what the average procurement professional considers their data foundation.  Suppliers have systematically reduced invoice transparency over the years, removing fields that enabled auditing, all under the guise of creating "easier to read" formats, and procurement is left to deal with the fallout.  The episode also connects back to Buylaws 5 and 6, prioritizing comprehensive high-quality data and developing expense-specific systems of measurement, while simultaneously setting up the next conversation about how compensation models and hiring practices must evolve for procurement's uncertain future.  Links: Rich Ham on LinkedInLearn more at FineTuneUs.com

Martin McNicoll, founder of Distillerie des Cantons de l’Est This is the first episode in an occasional In The Channel series called “Life after the channel” – conversations with people who built careers in the Canadian IT channel and then went on to do something completely different. Martin McNicoll founded Gurus Solutions, originally ERP Guru, and grew it into one of NetSuite’s most decorated Canadian partners over nearly two decades – President’s Club, nine consecutive years as a Five Star Award winner, and offices from Montreal to Chicago. He sold the company in 2022 and turned his attention to something that had been brewing since a 50th birthday trip to Scotland: whisky. Distillerie des Cantons de l’Est is a grain-to-bottle operation in Mansonville, Quebec, where Martin and his team are growing organic barley and rye using regenerative agriculture, distilling on-site, and aging their whisky in oak casks. First barrels went in in December 2024, with the first whiskies expected around 2028. In this conversation, we talk about the failed attempt to buy a cask at Balvenie that started it all, the sale of Gurus and what made him finally say yes, why the skills he built running an ERP consultancy translate surprisingly well to running a distillery, and what it means to retrain a SaaS-speed brain for a product that takes years to mature. Martin also shares the story behind the McNicoll brand – his Scottish ancestors who came to Quebec with the 78th Fraser’s Highlanders in 1757 – and talks about the fight to get a distillery approved on Quebec agricultural land, replanting American oak for barrels that won’t be ready for 30 years, and what’s coming next, including a butterscotch liqueur later this year. Read Full Transcript Robert Dutt: Hello and welcome to In The Channel from ChannelBuzz.ca, bringing news and information to the Canadian IT channel community for the last 16 years. I’m Robert Dutt, editor of ChannelBuzz.ca and your host for the show. This episode is a little different from what you’re used to hearing on In The Channel. It’s the first in what I’m hoping becomes an occasional series I’m calling “Life After the Channel” – conversations with people who built careers in the Canadian IT channel and then went on to do something completely different. My guest today is Martin McNicoll. If you were in the NetSuite ecosystem in Canada at any point over the last two decades, you probably know Martin. He founded ERP Guru, which was later rebranded to Gurus Solutions, grew it into one of NetSuite’s top partners in the country, picked up every award in the book, and eventually sold the company in 2022. And then he went and did something that nobody saw coming. Martin’s now building a grain-to-bottle whisky distillery in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, growing his own organic barley and rye, aging his own barrels, and building a brand rooted in his family’s Scottish heritage going back to the 1700s. It’s a great story. So let’s get right into it, my chat with Martin McNicoll. [MUSIC] Robert: Martin, thanks for taking the time. Thanks for joining us. Martin McNicoll: Robert, it’s great to be here with you today. Robert: Nice to catch up. We ran into each other a lot at SuiteWorld. And for years, when I talked to Craig West about the channel in Canada for NetSuite, you guys would be one of the first names that came up. President’s Club, Five Star, the whole nine yards. And now you’re making whisky in the Eastern Townships. Walk me through that. How did we come to be where we’re at today? Martin: Well, it’s a note on Craig. He was my RSM. He was the guy managing me and Gurus when you started. He wasn’t like head of the channel. He actually came down to Montreal to help me start the practice. So we connected for all that time. But to go back to the whisky business, I’m a Scotch fan. I’m a whisky fan. And now, like eight years ago, for my 50th birthday, I went to Scotland with a bunch of friends and had a great time visiting distilleries for a full week, just drinking Scotch and having fun and eating good food. And when we came back, a couple of years later, it was COVID. And COVID, I think, happened and a lot of people got ideas of what they really want to do. And I have a cottage in the Eastern Townships, which is, for your listeners, a bit up north of Vermont. I’m 15 minutes from Jay Peak, which is a ski resort in Vermont, on the Canada side. Beautiful place. And we stayed there for the first year of COVID. We had amazing success with Gurus. I think for everybody in the channel, cloud services companies really boomed during that time. Everybody wanted to run their business from home. It was a great time. And I said, what can we do? We had supply chain issues our customers were trying to solve. And I said, what can I do? What can I contribute? I started with ideas of being a farmer. These were shut down pretty fast. But a friend of mine said, you know what, we can grow barley and rye and we can make whisky. And I said, oh, that’s a great idea. And then the hunt was on. We found some land – I mean, that’s the only thing we could do during COVID, drive around and look for land – and found great land with a great combination of good water and enough acreage to grow the cereals. And it started like that. And then a French company approached us to buy Gurus. And it was just the right timing. So everything happened. It just gave me more money to spend on booze, sort of saying. Robert: As it should be. So to your point on that 2018 trip to Scotland, I read that the dream sort of began with a mission of bringing home a cask of whisky. Is that true? Martin: It is true. We tried to, actually. When we went to the Balvenie and we said we’d like to buy one of your casks. And they looked at us like aliens. It’s like going to a Michelin restaurant and asking to buy the pan of the chef, right? Because the cask is part of the process. That’s what gives some of the aromas to the whisky. That’s where it’s aging. So you just can’t leave with the cask. You just can’t. I mean, I guess there were some barrel programs today, but you leave the cask there. You buy the liquid that’s in the cask, that’s all yours, but you can’t leave with the cask. But that was funny. That led to very interesting conversations at the distilleries in Scotland. Crazy Canadians trying to buy a cask. That’s the IP. That’s the trade secrets of the industry. Robert: So you had Gurus for 18 years, Alan Allman Associates comes knocking. You said initially you didn’t want to sell. What changed your mind? How much of it was about making room for the distillery that was already percolating in the back of your mind versus just feeling like it was the right time to do something new? Martin: I mean, it was that. I wanted to dedicate more time, because at that point the guy running Gurus was my COO, Dominic, and he was doing a great job. I was taking more time off and giving him more bandwidth on the business to run it. And I wanted him to be the president and continue running it. And these guys came in and they said, “We want to buy your company.” I said, “Okay, I’m not interested.” So they came back a couple times and the second time said, “Okay, how much do you want?” And I gave what I thought was a crazy number and they said yes. So I was done. And today it’s one of the most profitable businesses they have in their portfolio, and they’ve added other ERPs to the mix buying other companies in North America. And for the French, Quebec and Canada is kind of the bridgehead to go to the rest of Canada and the US. They needed a company that can speak English, which Gurus dealt with very well all the time. Not all of them do. But it was great for them. A great acquisition on their side. I’m still sitting on their board in Montreal every quarter, so it keeps me connected to the business, having fun there and very proud to see the company continue to thrive. Robert: You guys built Gurus through a string of acquisitions – Enabled Success, NetStra, MD Technical Resources. You had offices from Montreal to Chicago. When you look at what you’re doing now with the distillery – buying land, building infrastructure, hiring a master distiller – does it feel like it’s the same muscles that you built in building up Gurus, or is it completely different? Martin: It is the same thing. That’s very funny. I thought it would be something else. It’s not. It’s just managing people, managing providers. I mean, the problems are different – it’s like a truck being stuck emptying a cargo of casks going to the distillery, or a pump that is broken. But it’s like following up with the providers, finding the right partners, researching, researching, researching, reading. And all the skills that I’ve developed in BI and everything that we’ve built with Gurus is fully applied here at the distillery. So I started with cloud solutions first, and we’re using all the Google stack, which I always used, with their Google Cloud. All the data of the distillery is stored in a Google Cloud database and we can do analysis. It’s just great to look at it from a data perspective and have the right people to do the job. And I recognize what I’m good at and what I’m not good at. So I break stuff sometimes. That keeps me away from some pieces of equipment. Robert: One thing that jumped out on the website for the distillery was the grain-to-bottle concept. You grow the grain, you distill it, you age it, you sell it. You control the whole chain. For 20 years you kind of sat as the middleman doing the consulting and implementation in between NetSuite and the customer. Was it something about that experience that made you want to own the whole thing this time around? Martin: Definitely. And as you know, Robert, in the ERP channel, it’s not your software, it’s NetSuite. And my team understood the software, and the best successes we had were when we found a customer, sold NetSuite, understood the requirements, gave them a realistic estimate, implemented, and took them live with the right time frame. So that to me was like the perfect – everything that would work great, boom, boom, boom. We sold, we implemented, we took them live, converted all their data. Happy customers stayed with us for years. And that was a bit of that, right? Where the channel model is changing – like the Salesforce model, even NetSuite is changing where there’s more of a side where you need to work with a direct sales team, which by definition have different objectives. Their objective is to sell the software for as much as possible. As for a partner, when you do the implementation, there’s a lot in it for you also in year two and year three. So you want the whole thing to go as smooth as possible. Different pros and cons there. And I think that was definitely an inspiration in owning the whole supply chain and making the product. And even then, I need to buy bottles from China. Robert: Yeah, it’s the classic case study, right? If one person could make a nail, it would be completely impossible to gather all the skills you would need to go from getting the metal out of the earth to producing a nail, much less a bottle of whisky, much less enterprise ERP. The distillery website says patience is part of your essence, and whisky obviously is a product that has to age for years before you can sell a bottle. In the channel, again to the contrast you were just describing, everything’s about this quarter’s numbers, this year’s President’s Club. It’s fast, it’s iterative, things change very quickly, new features are added rapidly. How do you retrain your brain from SaaS speed to whisky speed? Martin: I’m still impatient. But you know what, you go out in the field. And in the last couple years we had a lot of rain. And we had issues with weeds going into our fields, because we took fields that were used for hay to give to cows. So there’s a lot of seeds that you need to take out of that land. And we’re doing it with regenerative agriculture techniques, where we don’t use Roundup, we don’t use chemicals. And sometimes you just sit there and you prepare the soil and then you go into the field and you make it super nice and you plant. And then two weeks later it’s full of weeds. Like hectares of weeds just popping up on top of your barley. And you’re like, yeah, what are you going to do? You try, you go in there first and you try to pull them out, and then you realize the scale of this. It’s impossible, right? So patience is pushed on you, I would say, in agriculture. And for the whisky, I mean, we’re tasting it. I love whisky. And we have now barrels that are one year old. And these are rye – rye is something that grows very fast, very high, super easy. It’s like a weed in itself if you talk to the farmers. So we had a great crop of rye and we made our first rye last year. So we were opening up that cask and tasting it now, and it is great. But you can taste after one year the immaturity of the whisky. So I think you have to trust your taste buds and say, okay, this is great. There’s something nice, nice colour, this is the direction I want it to take. But it’s not ready. So you sit on it, you put the cork on top of it, hammer it down, and then just wait again. And I’m telling people, when is it ready? It’s going to be ready when it’s ready. It’s going to be great. Robert: Can’t rush it. You’re working 60 acres of organic grain, you’re building your rickhouse, you’re hiring a master distiller, you’re planning a tasting centre. This doesn’t sound like a hobby thing for retirement. This is a full second career. Do you find you’re working harder now than you were when you were running Gurus? Martin: Definitely. Because at the end, when you build a business, you assemble a team and people know what to do. You’ve got a PMO office, a back office, and a marketing team. And now you’re alone. So I’m like, can I get some help here? I have nobody. So you’re back into entering data in QuickBooks. No, I’ve solved that, I delegated that. But it’s tough. And the problem is, when I sold the business, I told my wife I’m retiring. And she said, yeah, yeah, you’re retiring. But I didn’t think, and she didn’t think, it would be this intense in terms of running it. And you’re fighting against all the bureaucracy and you have to understand all the rules, environmental rules. And you have to understand, to be a farmer, you have to apply for a permit to be a farmer. So what’s your background, sir? Well, I’m a software engineer. So really, good thing. Do you know about farming? Absolutely not. Okay, what are you going to do about it? Well, I’m going to hire someone. Who is it? I don’t know. Well, you need to get the licence first. So no, I found someone actually that really helped me and was working in the prairies in Saskatchewan for more than 10 years, working with cereals there. So it’s assembling a team, making it work together, putting all the resources in place so they can succeed. It’s the same thing. What I like is the manual labour, which you don’t get in tech. I’ve lost some weight. So that’s good, being out there and working with the equipment. One of the projects we’re working on now – for your listeners, we’re in March and mid-March in Quebec, it’s still very cold, it’s like minus 15 Celsius – so it’s the last time we’ll be able to go in the forest. And what we’re doing is harvesting some trees to plant oak trees. We’re introducing Quercus alba, which is the American oak, into our forest, because we have more forest than we have land. And the goal would be in, I don’t know, 30 years – I won’t be there – to make some barrels, maybe. So again, in that supply chain of getting there. But there’s no more oak in the area. It was all cut down for the lumber industry. So we’re replanting. That’s one of the side projects. So we’re going to go out with the equipment on Friday and go in the woods and cut some trees. That’s something I didn’t used to do. And that’s what my job involves now. A chainsaw. I’m happy. Robert: This is what you get to invent for yourself. And if you’re happy, that’s brilliant. You’re making three types of whisky as I understand it – a single malt, you touched on the rye, and a Canadian bourbon, which is not a concept I’d heard before. Very interesting. I enjoy a whisky, I am not a well-educated drinker. But for those who are listening, what’s the vision of the distillery? What are you going for with the whisky products? Martin: So we’re looking to develop high-end whisky. We’re talking about $100 bottles. So it really needs to be fine-tuned to the taste of the different products that you build. When you talk about rye whisky, it’s mainly – the cereal has to be rye. Single malt is just barley. And when you talk about bourbon, or if you talk about bourbon in Kentucky, it’s mainly based out of corn. So we have corn also on the land and we’ve added some wheat that we’ve tried. It’s a mix of different – they call it a mash bill. So our mash bill, the cereals that get taken into the equipment for the mash to create a beer. We make a beer, then we distill that beer and that’s the whisky at the end. The big difference is the cereals. So that batch we had, I think it was two years ago, big winter, and we couldn’t get the rye out of our silos because of the amount of snow and ice that was out there. So we said, hey, we have some corn there. Why don’t we make some – it’s all Canadian whisky, right? If you look at the official denomination, it’s Canadian whisky. Don’t confuse marketing with the real stuff. But it’s a mash bill that involves more than 50% corn. In this one I think it’s 65% corn. And it has that – you’ll recognize it if you’re a bourbon drinker – that very sweet, mellow taste of corn that you get into the whisky. That’s what you get from bourbon. So that’s what we’re making with that corn. Robert: I look forward to trying that, actually. Hopefully someday. On your website, I love the clan story – the McNicoll ancestors coming over with the 78th Fraser’s Highlanders in 1757, fighting at Louisbourg and Quebec, settling in La Malbaie. And now you’re bringing that Scottish whisky tradition back to Quebec soil. How much of this, as well as the ability to play with the chainsaw and hopefully bring in some casks, how much of this is about honouring that heritage? Martin: Well, that was a big part. When I started to enjoy more whisky and go back to Scotland, I went back to the land of my ancestors. So that was Portree, close to the Isle of Skye. And there’s another area also, another region, that there’s two big areas that the McNicoll clan were. So I got to visit that. That was always part of the story. And then as I was publishing some of my content on Scotland, a professor from a university here in the Eastern Townships contacted me. He said, you know, I wrote a book on the McNicoll clan, the whole story. So we started to talk and that became a very nice collaboration between him and the distillery to tell more of the story, to the point where we decided to call the whisky McNicoll. So the whiskies are going to be called McNicoll, with the different types of whisky we’re going to sell. The brand itself is my last name, which is an honour to this Scot who came to America, really, because they fought down, they went down to New York with the 78th, and the original dude came back north. And my mother has French ancestry – she’s a Chevalier, she’s French, French, French – and then Scottish, Scottish, Scottish. And then there’s a mix. You can see there’s a mix in between those two. And you look at the genealogy, and that professor went back and he found all the ancestors and all the churches here in Quebec and went down to New York, went to Scotland to find all the origins. Very interesting to see the different clans and the French into making our population today. Robert: Very cool. You touched a little earlier on the bureaucracy and that kind of fun. You went through an interesting fight with Quebec’s Agricultural Land Protection Commission to get permission to build a distillery on farmland. Without getting too deep into the legal weeds, what was that like? And is that a challenge other people thinking about agritourism or value-added agriculture should be ready for? Martin: Definitely. And doing business in anything that involves food – there are some guidelines and some rules of law that you need to follow, which is, I would say, much harder than to open a NetSuite provider or a NetSuite partner licence. I had offices all across the US and also in the rest of Canada. It was 100 times easier to open an office in California than to start an agri business in Quebec, or even I would say Canada. Some provinces are easier than Quebec, but it was always a challenge. But I knew I was right. So one thing you learn is that you surround yourself with great people. My lawyers – that’s the thing you can do when you have money, you just lawyer up. But they were great at understanding everything that was going on. I found the expert and this woman knew exactly what was happening. She found some other people that were able to go through it. And we just had to go through all the legwork and convince the commission that what we’re doing is okay. And here’s why. But it’s a process and it’s frustrating because you’re there and you want to do this project. And you’re like, I’m going to be environmentally friendly. I’m going to do this from the grain to the bottle. I want to do all those different things. And then you see all those obstacles. But I think it’s part of the challenge, going through them and winning. At the end, I won. So that’s what counts. Robert: It is exactly what counts. So if someone in the channel who’s in a place that you were at when you were with Gurus is listening to this and thinking, I’d love to do something like that someday – not necessarily to be a competitor to you, but to sell the practice, go off and do something completely different, that’s their dream – what would you tell them, having gone through this process as far as you have now? Martin: I think the fact that they have done it before – starting a consulting firm and running it and dealing with customers – they’ve built their knowledge and their expertise and their resilience into doing anything else. I would always say that implementing an ERP system is the Formula One of computer science, because you have so much complexity. And if you fail, the company can die. They will not operate. Products will not ship. Invoices will not go out. You can cripple a business by doing a wrong implementation. So I would say you’re really prepared to do anything, in my mind, after the channel, after running that type of business. I think it’s just to look at what you like to do and what’s your ambition and take it head on. Robert: Good advice. Good advice from someone who has done it and is doing it. And my last and no doubt most important question – when do we get to actually taste the whisky? When do you get to market with your products? Martin: At least two years. So to be whisky, to be called whisky, it needs to be three years in a cask, in an oak cask. And for us, we just reached our first anniversary in December. So we still have a good two years to go. And we have to decide if we are going to put it in a bottle or not. We’re going to taste it and say, is it ready or not? And if not, I’m just going to sit on it again. However, we’re coming out with a liqueur that we’re making. It’s a butterscotch liqueur that our master distiller has been developing. And he’s working also on another liqueur that we want to put out, and we’re going to sell locally. Just to get some things out of the distillery with a Scottish-type accent. Our master distiller has also some Scottish ancestry. He went to school at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh to learn about the trade. So he’s got all those ancient recipes of Scottish liqueurs. We’re pulling out of that book to create some interesting products. So that should come in a couple of months, hopefully, if I can get my bottles from China. Robert: Fascinating stuff. Good luck. It’s been very interesting catching up and it’s always fascinating to hear about the journeys of folks who’ve made a career in the channel and see what they’re doing afterwards. All the best with getting that liqueur out, and the longer term getting those three whiskies out the door. Martin: Thank you, Robert. Robert: There you have it – Martin McNicoll, formerly of Gurus Solutions, currently of Distillerie des Cantons de l’Est. I’d like to thank Martin for his time and honestly for his openness. It’s not every day that someone walks you through what it’s actually like to trade quarterly SaaS targets for fields of organic barley and barrels that won’t be ready for three years. A couple things that stuck out for me in this conversation. First, the idea that the same muscles that Martin built running a channel business – the acquisitions, the growth planning, the systems thinking – are the same muscles he’s using to build the distillery. Different industry, same instincts. I think anyone running a channel practice will recognize themselves in that. And second, the patience piece. Martin talked about planting trees today for barrels he won’t use for 30 years. That’s a fundamentally different relationship with time than most of us have in the tech world. And I think that’s something worth sitting with. If you want to learn more about what Martin’s building, you can find the distillery at distilleriedescantons.ca, and we’ll have a link for that in the show notes. Keep an eye out for the butterscotch liqueur, which should be available before the whisky is.

For Pete's Sake

If you got an invoice you'd been waiting for from your builder for work done, you'd get ready to pay it, wouldn't you?And if, a couple minutes after that, you got another invoice from the builder saying that actually he'd made a mistake and he'd given you the wrong bank details, you'd think nothing of it and proceed to pay.Well that's exactly what the reader who contacts our consumer affairs correspondent Conor Pope did. She sent the requested €30,000 to her builder and thought nothing more of it – until a week later when her builder contacted her politely wondering if where the payments was.She is tech savvy, has been made aware through her work about all kinds of fraud, and is cautious by nature yet she had been the victim of payment redirection fraud – also known as invoice fraud.Conor Pope came into the studio to explain how this scam worked and why this particular case should be a lesson to everyone who believes invoice scams are only targeted at big business.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Think you're safe because you never downloaded TikTok? We unpack why that's a myth, how a tiny pixel follows you across unrelated sites, and what to do right now to shut it down. From there we dig into a subtler dilemma hiding in your camera roll: computational photography that quietly invents detail, polishes your face, and reshapes memories. It looks great—until it doesn't. We trade quick tips for getting more honest photos, including RAW capture, disabled scene “optimizations,” and when to favor control over convenience.The conversation then turns to surveillance on your street. A glossy Ring ad promised neighborly teamwork; what many saw instead was a blueprint for crowdsourced tracking layered on top of license plate readers and a standing law enforcement portal. We walk the line between investigative value and normalized monitoring, and share concrete steps communities can take—warrants where appropriate, tighter retention windows, clear opt‑in controls, and public transparency logs.We also open our mailbag for three scams worth saving to muscle memory: a fake Netflix billing email that leads to a sketchy multi‑service “store,” a highly convincing invoice from a compromised vendor account, and an Amazon credential harvester that ends with a fake password‑changed screen. Our playbook is simple and effective: never pay from an email link, verify invoices by phone using a known number, enable multi‑factor authentication, and avoid ACH unless absolutely necessary. Then a hard lesson from the Odido breach in the Netherlands, where millions had full identity records exposed—why port‑out PINs, credit freezes, and vigilant monitoring matter more than ever.Yes, we still make room for pleasure: a Weller Full Proof tasting and a chuckle at a drone‑powered umbrella that follows you around. Through it all, our goal stays the same—decode the tech shaping daily life and hand you tools you can use.

In episode #351 of SaaS Metrics School, Ben breaks down one of the most misunderstood areas of SaaS finance: the difference between bookings, invoices, and revenue. Using the SaaS revenue cycle as a framework, he explains how a signed contract flows through invoicing, revenue recognition, and ultimately cash collection — and why confusing these concepts leads to bad metrics, poor forecasting, and cash flow surprises. Resources Mentioned Blog post: https://www.thesaascfo.com/bookings-vs-invoicing-vs-revenue/ SaaS Metrics Course: https://www.thesaasacademy.com/the-saas-metrics-foundation What You'll Learn What a booking actually represents in a SaaS or PLG business How bookings differ between sales-led and self-service models Why invoices are not the same as revenue under accrual accounting How deferred revenue works and why revenue must be recognized over time The full SaaS revenue cycle: bookings → invoices → revenue → cash Why understanding this flow is critical for financial modeling, forecasting, and cash flow planning Why It Matters Prevents overstating revenue or ARR in Board and investor reporting Improves accuracy in cash flow forecasting and runway planning Ensures go-to-market metrics like CAC payback and cost of ARR are built on the right data Reduces confusion between CRM data and accounting system source-of-truth Creates better alignment between finance, sales, and leadership teams

Color is one of the largest expenses in your salon… and yet most owners are still guessing.

The Part of the Business We Avoid I don't know many actors who got into this work because they love paperwork. Money. Invoices. Contracts. Admin. I avoid this side of the business not because I think it's beneath me, but because it makes me uncomfortable. It forces me to look closely. At numbers. At patterns. At choices I've postponed. And lately, I've been reminded how common that is. Why Admin Creates So Much Anxiety I've had several conversations recently with actors who are genuinely scared of the financial side of their career. Taxes coming up. Receipts scattered. Invoices unpaid. Contracts sitting unread in inboxes. Avoiding it feels easier than facing it. It feels responsible. I'll deal with it later. When I have more energy. When I feel more prepared. But avoidance doesn't stay neutral. It compounds. What Avoidance Actually Costs The longer we don't look, the bigger it feels. Money becomes emotional. Following up feels confrontational. Rates feel uncertain. Admin starts to feel like proof that we're "bad at business." None of that is about talent. It's about fear. Clarity, even when it's uncomfortable, is kinder than avoidance. What Being Professional Really Means This episode isn't about becoming an accountant or loving spreadsheets. It's about becoming available. Available to book work without panic. Available to follow up without guilt. Available to understand where your money is coming from and where it's going. Being organized doesn't make you less creative. It gives your nervous system a break. What I'm Practicing Right Now Smaller steps. Looking at the last few months instead of everything at once. Canceling subscriptions I forgot about. Sending invoice reminders before they're overdue so they don't turn emotional. Treating admin like maintenance, not a personal failure. It's quieter this way. A Question I'm Sitting With If my business were actually supporting me instead of stressing me out, how would my work feel different? That question changes how I approach this part of the job. You don't need to fix everything at once. You just need to stop pretending this part doesn't matter.

A check in conversation with Stef van Dongen, founder of The Pioneers of Our Time. Sitting at the fireplace we trace how neighbors who barely spoke began phoning across ridgelines, how tourism money are flowing uphill to fund forest work, and how a dense, abandoned woodland started opening into a living mosaic that holds water, softens fire, and invites wildlife back. We walk through the mechanics of a cost-based climate credit that pays for what a hectare truly needs over 15 years measured across water, carbon, biodiversity, and fire safety. It's a public–private framework that the regional government helps certify: pilots sold out, and a thousand credits are now in sight as the valley scales from dozens to thousands of hectares, all within a 40,000-hectare fire prevention plan designed to be holistic from day one.The conversation goes deeper into governance and replication. How do you manage a watershed you don't own? Start with trust, map the layers- forest, water, biodiversity, agriculture, economy- and build a campus where scientists, foresters, and investors can monitor, learn, and iterate. We compare desalination's billion-euro price tags to the cheaper, cleaner gains from soil sponge restoration. We talk predators and grazers, “green deserts” and beavers, and the hard pivot from carbon-speak to water security, a narrative that resonates across politics because everyone needs a shower, a harvest, and a forest that won't explode each summer.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

This Podcast Is Episode 644, And It's About Five Hidden Ways Contractors Lose Profits (And How To Stop It) Where did the money go? If you've ever looked at your bank account at the end of a busy month and thought, "I did all that work—so where did the money go?", you're not alone. This is one of the most common frustrations we hear from small business owners in the construction industry. You're booking jobs, staying busy, and delivering great work—but the profit doesn't seem to match the effort. As construction bookkeeping specialists, we've seen behind the numbers of dozens of small contractors. And time and again, we find the same hidden leaks draining their profits. The good news? Once you know what to look for, you can fix them—and finally start keeping more of what you earn. Here are five common ways contractors lose profits (without even realizing it)—and what you can do to stop the leaks. 1. Untracked Labor Hours: Working More Than You Billed Labor is often your most considerable cost. But for many small contractors, labor tracking is one of the weakest parts of their system. If you (or your crew) aren't logging actual hours worked on each job, you're likely underestimating how much time the project really took. That means you're effectively working for free on those "extra" hours. Real example: A contractor estimated a bathroom remodel at 40 hours of labor. The job actually took 55 hours. At $50/hour, that's $750 of lost profit—just from labor under-tracking. Multiply that across several jobs, and you can see how the profits evaporate. How to fix it: Use a simple time-tracking tool (like QuickBooks Time, or even a shared spreadsheet). Log hours daily—not at the end of the week when details are fuzzy. Compare estimated vs. actual hours after each job. This helps you improve future bids and spot inefficiencies. Bookkeeper's tip: If you track hours properly, I can show you job profitability in real time—and you'll see exactly which jobs (or crew members) are eating into your margin. 2. Unapproved Change Orders: Giving Away Work for Free Scope creep is the silent profit killer. A client asks, "Can you just add this?" and you say yes because it seems like a minor request. But those "little extras" add up quickly—and suddenly your margins are gone. Real example: A deck project initially included a standard railing. Midway through, the client asked for an upgraded design. The contractor agreed but never adjusted the invoice. The upgrade cost him $500 in materials and 10 extra labor hours—completely unpaid. How to fix it: Create a straightforward change order process. Stop work when clients request something new until the change is approved in writing. Even if it feels awkward, remember: change orders protect both you and the client by keeping expectations clear. Bookkeeper's tip: Keep a change order log for each job. We can help track approved vs. pending changes—so nothing slips through the cracks. 3. Material Waste and Overruns: Small Leaks, Big Losses Materials are another common leak. If you're not reconciling receipts against your estimates, you may be spending far more than you realize. It's not always theft or big mistakes—it's the little things: over-ordering, miscuts, lost supplies, or last-minute runs to the hardware store. Real example: A contractor estimated $5,000 in materials for a kitchen remodel. By the end, he had spent $5,800. That $800 didn't seem huge—but on a project with a $2,000 expected profit, it wiped out nearly half. How to fix it: Match every material receipt to the job. Track waste (e.g., lumber offcuts, unused drywall sheets). Build a small buffer into estimates (5–10%) to account for inevitable overruns. Do weekly check-ins: Are material costs still aligned with the budget? Bookkeeper's tip: If you send us your receipts consistently, we can flag when a job is trending over budget before it's too late. 4. Late Invoicing and Slow Collections: Cash Flow Gaps Many contractors do the work first and think about invoicing later. The problem is that late invoices result in late payments. And late payments can create cash flow crunches that force you to dip into savings, use credit, or delay your own bills. Worse, some clients "forget" to pay unless reminded. If you're not consistent about invoicing and follow-ups, you might never collect everything you've earned. Real example: A contractor finished a $10,000 basement project but didn't invoice until six weeks later. The client delayed payment for another four weeks. That's 10 weeks without income—while the contractor was already paying subs and suppliers. How to fix it: Invoice immediately at milestones—not weeks later. Use progress billing: collect deposits upfront, then bill at set phases. Set clear payment terms (Net 15, Net 30) in your contracts. Automate reminders using software like QuickBooks, Joist, or FreshBooks. Bookkeeper's tip: We can set up a system where invoices go out automatically and overdue payments are flagged—so you never have to chase clients down again. 5. Forgetting Overhead: Missing the True Cost of Running Your Business This is one of the biggest mistakes we see: contractors price jobs based only on direct costs (labor + materials) and forget to include overhead. Overhead is everything it takes to keep your business running, like: Truck payments and fuel Insurance and licenses Office supplies and software Marketing and advertising Your own salary! If you don't factor in overhead, you might think you made a profit—but really, you just broke even. Real example: A contractor charged $15,000 for a renovation. Materials and labor cost $11,000, so it looked like a $4,000 profit. However, once overhead was factored in (including fuel, insurance, phone, bookkeeping, etc.), the actual profit was closer to $1,200. How to fix it: Calculate your monthly overhead. Divide that into your billable hours or projects. Add it to every estimate. Bookkeeper's tip: We can calculate your overhead burden per job, so you'll know exactly how much to add to every quote to stay profitable. Recap: 5 Hidden Profit Leaks Untracked labor hours Unapproved change orders Material waste and overruns Late invoicing and slow collections Forgetting overhead Each of these may seem small, but together they can drain thousands of dollars from your business every year. The Bottom Line: You Don't Have to Keep Losing Money The difference between "busy and broke" and "busy and profitable" isn't more jobs—it's better control of your numbers. When you track your labor, materials, change orders, invoices, and overhead, you stop the leaks and keep more of the money you've already earned. And you don't have to do it alone.
