Podcasts about licensing

Key Topics Covered   Life Lessons from Officiating a Wedding Karl opens up about his experience presiding over his niece's wedding. He shares heartfelt advice on partnership, the value of keeping your inner child alive, embracing life's ups and downs, and why “together forever” is a powerful North Star for couples and business partners alike. The importance of mindset—advancing, not retreating, in marriage and business—is highlighted, along with practical methods for maintaining positivity (like using standup comedy as a daily mood boost).   Licensing vs. Franchising—Profit Powerhouses Explained Karl breaks down the pivotal difference between licensing and franchising, offering memorable real-world examples:   Licensing: Earning royalties from intellectual property (like Disney does by licensing characters for merchandise) with little risk or hard cost.   Franchising: Replicating a full business model with training and brand support (think McDonald's, Subway). He spotlights the Blue Man Group's scalable licensing as a model for exponential growth and contrasts it with Siegfried & Roy's limited, high-earning but labor-dependent Vegas act. Karl also details what makes a business franchisable—and why some aren't.   Warren Buffett's Rules and Strategies for Success Karl distills Warren Buffett's timeless investment wisdom for coaches and entrepreneurs:   Understand and stick to the rules (profit, repeat business).   Seek high-margin, habit-forming opportunities (buy for a penny, sell for a dollar).   “Rule #1: Don't lose money. Rule #2: See rule #1.”   Build a personal brand and keep clients just like getting clients.   Practice extreme clarity: know what to say “yes” and “no” to.   Harness the power of compounding, but don't wait ten years—use marginal utility theory for rapid incremental growth.   Clarity, Focus, and Avoiding Distractions Karl ties elite execution to laser clarity—most entrepreneurs fail because of distraction or lack of clear direction. Eliminating distractions (social media, busy work) is as vital as mastering strategy. He advocates for serving first, delivering value before a sale, and focusing on the biggest problems you can solve.   Coaching Operating Systems and Retention Practical advice centers on using a proven coaching operating system (like Karl's Jumpstart 12 or Profit Acceleration Software) to guarantee client wins, profit acceleration, and long-term engagement.   Ready to elevate your coaching business?

When a woman's body was found in a field, the police found a potential piece of evidence in the grass. But they decided to hold that information back, leading some to wonder if that is what stalled the investigation. If you have any information, call the Burton Police Department at (810) 742-2542 or the Crimestoppers at 1-800-422-JAIL. This case is unsolved.

With over 60 million human-curated Q&A pairs, Stack Overflow is now at the center of AI development — not as a competitor to large language models like ChatGPT, but as a foundational knowledge base that powers them.   Prashanth breaks down how Stack Overflow is partnering with OpenAI, Google, and other LLM providers to license its data and improve AI accuracy, while also protecting the integrity of its community. He explains the rise of OverflowAI, how Stack Overflow for Teams is fueling enterprise-grade co-pilots, and why developers still rely on expert human input when AI hits its “complexity cliff.” The conversation covers everything from hallucination problems and trust issues in AI-generated code to the monetization of developer data and the evolving interface of the web.   If you want to understand the future of developer tools, AI coding assistants, and how human knowledge will coexist with autonomous agents, this episode is a must-listen.   Subscribe for more deep dives into how AI is reshaping the world of software, enterprise, and innovation.

How much do you charge? How much are you? My first question is, How did you interpret that question?  Because you could think I'm going to dive into how to set your fees… and I am. You might have had this question come up with a client and wonder, how do I answer that question. I'm going to answer that too.  You also could be asked this about something you've never even considered, like …  How much would you charge for a presentation ? What are your speaking fees?  How much would you charge to create a series of videos for our membership? Or organization or to provide the movement breaks at our corporate event?  If you haven't thought about your response to any of these questions, or you really wonder how to set your fee structure when you're starting or want to raise your rates, then this is for you.    I'm going to cover each of these in a little series because the two most popular workshops I've hosted in my career:  Offer Creation lab  Coaching Hotties: The HOW-TO for menopause fitness coaches & trainers  And within minutes, when I conduct a Business Better audit with our new Menopause Fitness Specialists, a couple things become clear. Many of us do not know where our biggest profit comes from.  We are not creating products and setting fees in a way that puts us in a profitable position. So let's change that. You no longer need to believe that because you're in a service-oriented business, or that you love it, that you can't also make a profit and have a life you love.  That stops now, don't you think? Stay tuned for the How Much Do You Charge series.   Collaboration Opportunities Impacting How Much Do You Charge  They may say, “How much would you charge for creating a series of beginner videos for our site that we have access to.” They give you a description of what it is that they want.  What's your answer to that?  Listen to How Much Do You Charge Episode 3 to know what to do on collaboration opportunities!   Licensing and Use You're giving them the rights to use your materials on their site, giving you credit.  There is no licensing necessarily. They don't have to come back in 2 years to renew their license. You're just allowing them to use it.    Exclusivity You might say, “Would you prefer exclusivity? I'm creating these programs and videos exclusively for you.”  Mentioning “I won't be using the programs and videos on my site. These will be exclusive and no one else will use them. No one else will have the opportunity. No one else will see them except on your side.”  That's going to be a much higher price. Considering the time to design, create, shoot, edit, is greater.   Limited Licensing Agreement Or you allow them a licensing fee to use for X period of time.  They have to either renew it or have to discontinue use after the agreed period.    In any of these, when you're creating a brand, make sure that there's some kind of legal binding agreement, so it is written.  You should provide Clauses and Agreements that must be very clear on the details and both parties must sign. This now becomes a more expensive project. How much will it cost you to hire a lawyer for the documents? How much time will the process take? Or find a lawyer who can give you some templated formats, created and customized for you.   Value of Your Time and Effort in How Much Do You Charge If you're designing these programs, take the time to shoot and edit these videos. Consider the value of your time. If your time is worth $500 an hour, just an example, you also have to think, are there additional costs? If your team needs you to be doing something else entirely, you need to consider a contractor.  Consider the cost and time in doing the project yourself. Factor in the cost that would be incurred by you being away from your usual work. Or if you could create a product that would be making you passive income, then the cost of you doing this product or project may be extremely high.    So, there you have it. How much do you charge? From consumers, from collaborators, from corporations and businesses. I hope you now have an answer to those questions. I look forward to hearing your response to this. If you've listened, if this was helpful, and or if you've been in an instance where this has come up for you, share with me. So we'll provide you with an opportunity to see a sample of how you respond.   Other Episodes You Might Like:  Part 1 - Key Factors That Determine How Much Do You Charge Part 2 - Include Quality in How Much Do You Charge for a Potential Customer   Resources:  Join The Menopause Fitness Fix to know what you need before you workout again!

In this episode of the EMS One-Stop podcast, host Rob Lawrence kicks off a special series spotlighting national EMS associations, beginning with a deep dive into the EMS Personnel Licensure Interstate CompAct (REPLICA). His guest, Donnie Woodyard Jr., executive director, Interstate Commission for EMS Personnel Practice, brings decades of EMS experience and leadership to the table to demystify what the EMS Compact is, how it operates, and why it matters to the profession today. From improving workforce mobility to protecting public safety during disasters, Woodyard Jr. provides clarity on this critical multi-state agreement. The conversation covers everything from how EMS Compact came to be, to the significance of national registry standards, disaster response logistics, interstate licensure, and even leadership lessons from Woodyard Jr.'s latest book project, “Leadership in action: The Wisdom and stories of EMS innovators”. Whether you're a field provider or policymaker, this episode is a must-listen for understanding how collaborative legislation can shape the future of EMS. In the episode, Woodyard Jr. candidly addresses the ongoing debate in North Carolina over transitioning from a state-only EMS certification exam to exclusive use of the National Registry. Woodyard Jr., while respectful of North Carolina's long-standing EMS tradition, emphasizes the importance of national consistency. He acknowledged that the proposed legislation needed amendments, particularly around grandfathering existing providers, but stood firm in his belief that a single, legally defensible national standard is essential for provider mobility and professional integrity. Drawing on real-world examples, Woodyard Jr. described how providers are often caught off guard when relocating — only to discover their credentials aren't accepted elsewhere. “Maintaining a state-only exam is harmful to individuals,” he said, calling for unified testing standards that support workforce movement and strengthens the profession nationwide. Memorable quotes from Donnie Woodyard Jr “Every EMT and paramedic in the United States should go through a fingerprint background check. You know, babysitters have to do it. Teachers have to do it. EMS personnel absolutely should do it.” “Maintaining a state-only exam is harmful to individuals.

In this second episode of a two-episode interview, host David Mandell continues his conversation with Corey Kleinschmidt, an industry veteran in the locum tenens space.  The episode kicks off with a recap of Part 1 and a reintroduction to Cory's extensive background in the industry, including his work with Jackson Healthcare and his current role at Locumpedia. The focus then shifts to actionable steps for physicians considering locum—starting with educating themselves through resources like Locumpedia's No BS Guide and connecting with other providers who've already taken the plunge. Cory outlines the importance of understanding the business side of locums, emphasizing that physicians are essentially independent contractors. This means getting smart about taxes, possibly forming an LLC, and making strategic choices about which agencies to partner with. He explains how working with staffing firms can simplify everything from job placement to credentialing and malpractice coverage, while also highlighting the variability in agency models—some being high-touch and others more transactional. Licensing and credentialing are also critical topics covered in this episode. Cory discusses the value of multi-state licensing and the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact (IMLC), as well as how staffing firms often assist in navigating these hurdles. The conversation wraps up with a look at contracts, pay structures, and what to expect in terms of housing, travel reimbursement, and malpractice coverage. David and Cory underscore the importance of doing your homework to ensure a successful and rewarding locum tenens experience. KEY INSIGHTS: The No BS Guide on Locumpedia is a comprehensive starting point for understanding locum tenens. Locumpedia's “Locum CME” news roundup keeps physicians up to date on trends, including how AI is shaping the field. Talking to other physicians with locum experience can offer real-world insight into the pros and cons. Most physicians working locums are classified as independent contractors and should understand how this affects taxes and benefits. Many physicians form LLCs to optimize tax deductions and liability protection. Staffing firms play a central role in matching physicians to opportunities and handling all non-clinical logistics. There are over 200 locum tenens agencies, so it's important to research and vet potential partners through reviews and referrals. The Interstate Medical Licensure Compact (IMLC) can simplify multi-state licensing for qualified physicians. Staffing firms often provide malpractice insurance, travel and housing—details that should be reviewed in the contract. Contracts typically include compensation terms, responsibilities, reimbursement policies, and clauses like noncompetes and cancellation terms.
