Double-tap — or in some cases just tap — to like. Those little filled-in hearts and thumbs-up used to be the currency of marketing campaigns. How many did you get? Then bots disrupted, and the market for selling likes got out of control. Brands started wising up to the super high customer acquisition costs they were seeing in their marketing reports and they wanted to trim the fat, to know more about who was seeing what and for what reason? Passionate about intricate marketing details like these is Dave Fink the CEO & Founder of Postie. He's seen a lot of change in the social media marketing landscape in his times on the scene. “We were starting from an authentic place, which was a need for more control over our growth - beyond the behemoths that are social and search. Watching those channels take more and more power, and marketers lose more and more power over their growth trajectory, but not wanting to acquiesce and give up all of the technology and tools and data and measurement and predictability that comes from those channels.”The realization that social media marketing on Facebook was extremely volatile and based solely on large corporate algorithm decisions made by the tech giants sobered Dave into action to move away from relying on paid social media and into the physical mail sector. On Marketing Trends, hear more about how Dave built Postie into one of the most data-driven marketing platforms and how companies within the Fortune 500 are using Postie to level up its customer experience. All this next on Marketing Trends.  Main TakeawaysAdvantages of Direct Mail to Marketers: There is so much data and 100% of the possible market to be reached, physically with direct mail marketing. So much focus has been spent in recent years on tracking clicks and cookies and other digital marketing metrics that the cost of direct mail marketing has gone down and the effectiveness of it remains high.Generating Data for Direct Mail Campaigns: To be effective in direct mail campaigns you need a lot of data that can support predictive modeling and auto-optimization. All of this data can be fed to computers thereby increasing the effectiveness of machine learning. Direct mail in the modern era is about using data to micro-target the best possible consumer.Invest in having good mentors: The difference between business owners that have and utilize the wisdom to be gained from mentors is significant. Be aggressive and seek out the mentorships and curate those relationships, as it will be of great advantage to you. Key Quotes“We were starting from an authentic place, which was a need for more control over our growth - beyond the behemoths that are social and search. Watching those channels take more and more power, and marketers lose more and more power over their growth trajectory, but not wanting to acquiesce and give up all of the technology and tools and data and measurement and predictability that comes from those channels.” “We think about data and insights probably in two different buckets. The first bucket is direct mail. It's a channel that can provide big data, both first-party data, and third-party data for all sorts of miraculous things —  predictive modeling, auto-optimization. The same kind of characteristics that social has. You get better with bigger data and you get better with testing and insights. A core focus of Postie is big data and machine learning, The biggest product focus that we spend our time on is thinking about how to give all advertisers access to the same data and mathematical advantage that they get from other channels.”“We think about monster companies like Airbnb, Uber and Lyft -- those are still emerging brands, innovators, and disruptors -- then there's the Fortune 500 that almost always falls in the enterprise -- we service both sides. The other is, ‘Is this a brand that's currently invested in indirect mails as a core channel, or is the brand on the complete opposite of the spectrum?' Depending on what quadrant a prospect or a client falls in will determine how we engage with them and what the education process looks like and how we think about their trajectory in the direct mail channel.” “Think about direct mail as a very specific individualized channel. It's a part of your marketing mix. Those advertisers that I see taking advantage of it with the best performance, with the most scale, most control, are those that start not thinking about just ‘How do we make direct mail work?' But, ‘Who is our customer base? What are our core marketing objectives?' Then thinking about a holistic plan for attacking those goals and affecting the achievement of those goals positively. Direct Mail can be a high performance, highly scalable component, but it all starts with markers and understanding, and being honest with themselves around what they're looking to achieve both in the short term and the long term.” “Remember the days when Facebook advertising was all about building your fan page and buying likes? That wasn't that many years ago and at that time I was involved in many brands that had seven, in some cases, eight-figure annual budgets building monstrous fan pages and investing in even bigger budgets of in-house content creators to engage those fans through storytelling. Then Facebook decided to reach those fans, we're going to charge you. That was the warning sign.” “A start-up is a living breathing entity, and it's a journey, and there are good moments and bad moments, good days and bad days if you're in that bunker with someone else. As a co-founder, that's invaluable. One piece of advice is you've got to have multiple mentors and you have to invest in those relationships. The difference in people's careers that I've seen when they have had mentors versus when they don't have mentors, it's a night and day difference. BioA 15-year consumer-internet veteran Dave Fink, CEO & Founder of Postie, is a revenue-focused entrepreneur.

Garvin Live!,” said Tina Rodriguez, Senior Director, programming & acquisitions, AspireTV. ”We often hear from Black lifestyle television enthusiasts that they love cooking shows, but rarely see themselves represented on screen. It's been our mission to change that perspective and have representation across all lifestyle genres. Chef G. Garvin has been working behind the camera with AspireTV for years on Butter & Brown, so it's an honor to have him step in front of the camera for this all-new series.” In G. Garvin Live!, Executive Chef G. Garvin will take everyday ingredients that are easy to find from any pantry and turn them into great homemade decadent meals in minutes. Chef G. will share recipes that will be smooth and easy for the novice cook and effortless for the culinary veteran. In addition, Chef G. will also be cooking alongside some of his closest friends who love food and love to cook. This experience is a friendly cooking show that will allow you to enjoy the journey from the beginning to the final dish. Dishes featured on the upcoming season will include Lobster Gnocchi, Orange Ginger Shrimp, Pan Seared Salmon, Sauteed Veal Chop, Shrimp & Grits and Bone in Ribeye to name a few. G. Garvin Live! is produced by One Bite Productions with Chef G. Garvin serving as executive producer. Promo Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fw7m8RIesnc About Chef Garvin Restaurateur, Culinary and Hospitality Consulting Specialist, and Chief Culinary Advisor for SodexoMAGIC. Chef Garvin started his culinary career at the age of 13 in his hometown, Atlanta, Ga. Within 3 years, he was working at the Ritz Carlton-Downtown as the youngest line cook working with German Chef Vulker Shupp. He would later move to Palm Springs, California working under Chef Jean Pierre Dubray at the Ritz Carlton-Rancho Mirage. As his culinary career continued to show promise, Garvin relocated to Los Angeles, California, where his career evolved from Sous Chef to Executive Chef, to eventually opening his own catering & events company and signature restaurant. He continued to make a name for himself, and within a short span of time, make the leap to TV with his Turn Up the Heat with G. Garvin show. After 7 seasons, 3 books, and numerous accolades, his increasing popularity would lead to shows on the Cooking Channel, the Travel Channel, and his first James Beard Award nomination. Garvin can now be seen as a special guest on Good Morning America, or on Food Network alongside hosts such as Guy Fieri. He has also opened numerous restaurants in Atlanta through his “LowCountry Restaurants” brand and is actively working to educate and inspire the next generation of culinary professionals with his “G Garvin Culinary and Hospitality Foundation”. Through Garvin's efforts, he hopes to aid in breaking down the diversity barriers within not only the cooking industry but in society as a whole where chefs of color are often categorized more often by race than a profession.

So, it's incumbent upon the product team to steward the rest of the organization through that decision making process.” - Ryan Glushkoff   Topics Covered: 01:36 - What he does as a B2B technology pricing consultant 03:32 - Doing qualitative interviews and quantitative surveys 04:17 - Aha moments when it comes to clients saying what they claim customers value versus what customers say they value 05:16 - Important data points uncovered with qualitative and quantitative interviews 05:57 - What is competitive research and its different types 07:44 - Times when you consider pricing as part science and part art 08:46 - Going the same pricing metric as the competitor versus charging with better options 09:56 - Sharing his concern about using different pricing metrics 10:38 - Perpetual license of moving to SaaS 11:23 - Touching on usage-based pricing 12:43 - Outcome-based pricing being a version of user-based pricing 13:47 - PayPal and tollbooth pricing 14:41 - Are Lyft and Uber subscription-based companies 15:06 - Price structure of AWS and how it's different from Uber 18:48 - Regularly buying diet Coke compared to subscription-based 19:37 - What he thinks of putting pricing online 21:42 - When it's not proper to pricing online 23:28 - His thoughts to a recommendation of putting a price range versus none at all 24:35 - Which way to go -- put price online or not 26:14 - When do companies miss part of their pricing research 26:44 - Where should pricing lives in a company 30:24 - How pricing is screaming for a center of excellence type of approach 31:58 - His best pricing advice that can have a great impact on one's business 32:27 - Does he actually ask, ‘What are you willing to pay' 33:33 - Mark's answer to Ryan's question on why he asks, ‘What are you willing to pay'   Key Takeaways: “Competitive research is something that is really good to know, but since every company has their own unique value proposition that they bring to market, just copying a competitor, you're probably leaving something on the table by doing that, or you're selling yourself short.” - Ryan Glushkoff “If you'd ask which side of the fence I would come on, or land on for, whether to put your pricing online or not, I would err on the side of putting it online. The idea of maintaining positive control of the sales conversation is paramount. Especially if you do your homework and you're confident in the research that you've done that informs the value of your solution, the price that people are willing to pay.” - Ryan Glushkoff “I really think it [Pricing] should live in the product organization because the product owner is really the CEO of the product; the product team has the deepest understanding of the problems that the buyer and the user are facing. They have the deepest understanding of how to go about solving those problems, through the features and capabilities that the solution is offering.”  - Ryan Glushkoff   People/Resources Mentioned: PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/ph/home Lyft: https://www.lyft.com/ Uber: https://www.uber.com/tw/en/ AWS: https://aws.amazon.com/   Connect with Ryan Glushkoff: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/glushkoff/ Email: glushkoff@gmail.com   Connect with Mark Stiving:  Email: mark@impactpricing.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/

Vicky Cakes is a dairy-free pancake & waffle mix made with wholesome ingredients. We got an exclusive interview with co-founder Christian. We discuss how the business started, the development phase and getting recognized by Good Morning America! Black-owned. Woman-owned. Veteran-owned. Based in Dallas, Texas. Web: https://vickycakesonline.com Follow: @vickycakespancakemix As a single mom of four in the late ‘70s, Vicky created this delicious wholesome recipe out of necessity for her children. Then, word spread around town and soon family and friends couldn't resist her light and fluffy pancakes. This husband and wife power couple founded the company in 2019. Christian is Vicky's youngest daughter. Vicky cooked breakfast for the family in 2013 and Cortney immediately fell in love with her pancakes. He suggested they start selling it! Six years later, Christian and Cortney launched Vicky Cakes on Mother's Day as a historical gesture to honor Vicky for her sacrifice as a mother. Vicky Cakes became available on Amazon Thanksgiving weekend of 2019, and Walmart.com in January of 2020. It went on to become available on many online marketplaces and at local grocery stores across the country.

Debt-stricken taxi drivers have entered their 17th day of a round-the-clock protest outside City Hall. They are demanding the mayor and city council cover the massive debts they incurred when the price of a taxi medallion collapsed after the City allowed Uber and Lyft to flood the streets with their own drivers who did not have to pay for medallions. We speak with Bhairavi Desai of the New York Taxi Workers Alliance about how the city reaped hundreds of millions of dollars in taxi medallion sales a decade ago but has since turned its back on cab drivers, many of whom owe upwards of a half-million dollars each.

Hildalyn Hernandez Colon, Director of Policy and Strategic Partnerships at the Workers Justice Project, talks about recent victories at City Hall won by New York City's 65,000 delivery workers and the organizing that went into that among an upsurge in worker militancy across the country spurred by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cash Flow Portal founder and CEO Perry Zheng is on the show with us this week. Join us as we talk about his journey from being a first-generation immigrant to a successful real estate syndicator, as well as how Cash Flow Portal came to be so successful in such a short amount of time. Perry Zheng is the founder and CEO of Cash Flow Portal, a real estate syndication software that helps real estate syndicators raise money, streamline operations, and reach out to more investors. To date, they have over 1,500 units and have raised over $16 million dollars. Perry himself is a lead syndicator with 580 units in his portfolio. He was also a full-time engineering manager at Lyft just recently quit his day job to focus on real estate. Perry is a first-generation immigrant who grew up in a hardworking family. Growing up, he realized that working smarter bears more fruit than working harder. After getting a good education, working his way up the career ladder, and creating Cash Flow Portal, Perry decided to pour his time into real estate—particularly syndications. In this episode, Perry shares his insights on career growth, starting out in the real estate industry, and what it's like to work towards success as an immigrant in the US. We also deep dive into how he built Cash Flow Portal, which is a relatively new company (but is already achieving 80% to 100% growth week-to-week), and how they managed to thrive in the middle of a global pandemic. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Work smarter, not harder. 2. You shouldn't be looking too far into the future; don't underestimate what you can do in the long term. 3. Enjoy the journey; focus on what you can control. 4. Networking is an important tool for education and building experience aside from making connections.

Waymo is working on self-driving taxis. Which is a huge deal. Ridesharing apps like Uber and Lyft have remade cities, allowed people to give up their cars, and generally connected the buttons you push on your phone to real things happening in the world more directly than almost any other app. Nilay Patel talked to Tekedra Mawakana, co-CEO of Waymo, about expanding Waymo's service to other cities, the hurdles in place, and how she thinks the company will make money over time. We also talked about the regulatory issues the industry faces as it tries to roll out self-driving more broadly, and whether things like Tesla's “full self driving” are confusing the issue or helping it.  This was a really fun conversation made even better because we recorded it live, on stage at Code Conference.

In Who Gets What — and Why: The New Economics of Matchmaking and Market Design (Mariner Books, 2015), Nobel Memorial Prize Winner Alvin Roth explains his pioneering work in the study of matching markets such as kidney exchange, marriage, job placements for new doctors and new professors, and enrollments in schools or colleges. In these markets, “buyers” and “sellers” must each chose the other, and getting the prices right is only a small part of what makes for a successful transaction, if cash is even involved at all. Roth's work has led the way in taking microeconomics outside the halls of academic theory to become a practical “engineering” tool for policymakers and businesses. In our interview, we range far beyond the examples from the book to discuss the implications of his work for the design of tech's market-making “platform” businesses like Airbnb, Amazon, Lyft, or Uber, the challenges he faces when countries or people view some kinds of transactions as “repugnant” or morally unacceptable, and the reasons why San Francisco's school district (unlike Boston's or New York's) chose not to implement the un-gameable school choice plan his team devised for them. Host Peter Lorentzen is an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of San Francisco, where he leads a new digital economy-focused Master's program in Applied Economics.

When successful people talk about how they got to be in the position they're in, a good number of them credit luck or circumstances. These folks typically mention a series of fortuitous events that conspired to push them in one direction or another. Then there are the other, more rare, stories. The ones where a person has a definite vision of what they want to accomplish. And the determination to make it happen. Some of the more notable among these laser-focused legends are the empires of Walt Disney, Henry Ford, and Sam Walton. Although they haven't reached the same world-domination-status, yet, these kinds of dream-driven business biographies are also the stories of two local entrepreneurs. Amina Dearman had a successful career in sales. She was Chief Sales and Marketing Officer at jewelry design company, Mignon Faget. It was a great position and she'd spent a work-life building toward it. But in 2019 Amina walked away from security and success, to do what she really wanted. She started a company called Perspectives, a boutique travel consultancy. Evidently, it was a good move. A year later, in 2020, Amina was named by prestigious Travel + Leisure magazine as a member of “The A List of the World's Top Travel Advisors.” When Beth Nettles had her first child, she quickly discovered that getting a ride with Uber or Lyft wasn't quite as simple as it used to be. Not because she had a baby and a diaper bag to juggle – well, that too - but mainly because the Uber and Lyft cars didn't have a baby seat. To solve this problem, Beth did something pretty radical. She started her own rideshare company. Krewe Car is the only ride-sharing car service that offers car seats for their customers.  There are a number of other differences between Uber, Lyft, and Krewe Car too. Krewe Car has fixed prices only – there's no surge pricing. Krewe Car pays its drivers more than Uber and Lyft. Krewe Car has a membership model for customers. But perhaps the biggest difference, in a business sense, is this: in their startup years Uber and Lyft both lost billions of dollars. Krewe Car is already profitable. Sometimes you have to just go for it. You have to believe in yourself and do what you really want, no matter how crazy it might seem. If at any time you need to be reminded of the benefits that can come from following your dreams or, proverbially, jumping off a cliff, you don't need to look any further than Amina Dearmon and Beth Nettles. Amina's and Beth's stories are inspirational. But they're also grounded in smart business practices, and a lot of hard work. Out to Lunch is recorded live over Lunch at NOLA Pizza in the NOLA Brewing Taproom.

In this episode  I am joined by the usual group of Jaime, Hector and Hiram.  Although this time Hiram joins us live in the studio. We think of coming up with a better  name for our garage pod studio.  Jaime talks some UFC that we plan to check out the next day.  He tells us about Nick Diaz's giant following.  We also talk a little boxing and wrestling as the weekend is busy with all kinds of television events.  Jaime has to shove the Dallas Cowboys into the conversation.  We also talk about some sliders that my brother Eric made earlier in the day and ask the question of why people would choose a slider over a burger.  Jaime wants to know the history of sliders so we do a google search and find out who coined the term sliders. Meanwhile we have a brisket on the Pitmaker Safe.  We use the Hector's Little wood method.  We review some popular Michelada beers that are available locally on the shelves. I have the guys sample Modelo, Bud-light, and Sol Chelada beers.  One of them doesn't make the cut white the other two are surprisingly decent.  I then have the guys taste my championship recipe for comparison.  We talk about our night out for my sister's 21st birthday at the Quarter and Hillbilly's .  Let's say there were shots involved and more shots involved. These guys give a shoutout to the waitress and invite her to the podcast. Hiram reminisces about his Mr. Cali-Mari days where he used to review calamari in Los Angeles.  Jaime also invites his Lyft driver to the podcast but she needs permission from her Jaime Daddy. Tune in to the next episode as we are going to be joined by Chillin n Grillin.A bunch of joes that cook like pros!!!Ready Set BBQ Shophttps://www.readysetbbq.com/shop Law Office of Hector Hernandezhttp://hhernandezlaw.com/?fbclid=IwAR3kaG_wQzrsUJ-cVxJLUyjvipMPM1R59xo9YMKFFsiGHaaUgdZ8hd8cB7Y 

Millions of American lives have been forever transformed by the effective treatment options available for addiction recovery, and they deserve to be noticed. National Recovery Month serves to draw attention to the remarkable strides made by those in recovery and to foster a greater understanding among all of us about mental health and substance use disorders. Christine Naman celebrates her daughter's recovery every day. In a story that plays out in far too many households, Christine's daughter, Natalie, became addicted to heroin in spite of a loving family and a comfortable life. Christine traces her daughter's years-long battle with addiction — and her own struggles with denial — in About Natalie, a gripping, cautionary tale of how a child can suddenly end up on the wrong path, meet the wrong people and get lost in the unthinkable. About Natalie takes readers deep inside Christine's emotional and mental turmoil as she grows into her new, unfortunate role as the parent of an addict. She steps on syringes left on the floor and wrestles one from the family dog's mouth. She lives the nightmare of finding an unresponsive child on the floor and uses Narcan to revive her. She chases away a drug dealer and stays up all night waiting for her missing child to come home. She rejoices during periods of recovery and hope and is devastated during relapses. When her daughter suffers, Christine suffers right along with her. Interwoven with Christine's reflections are Natalie's compelling poems that share her personal pain and the unvarnished truth of her struggle. Full of compassion, understanding and hope for addicts, About Natalie is a story of fighting for — and right alongside — the ones we love, no matter how difficult the circumstances. It is a story of keeping the faith, battling hard and never giving up. Bestselling author Christine Pisera Naman is a wife to a beautiful man named Peter and a mother to three fantastic kids named Jason, Natalie and Trevor. In her free time, she enjoys crocheting, which she does poorly; painting, again poorly; and volunteering at her local hospital, which she hopes she does well. She is the author of the Faces of Hope series of books that are now housed in the 9/11 Memorial Museum in New York City. Her other works include Caterpillar Kisses, Christmas Lights, The Novena and The Believers. About Natalie is her heart poured onto paper. She hopes that by sharing her family's difficult story she can bring understanding and knowledge to those who do not know the problem firsthand as well as provide comfort to those who know the nightmare of addiction all too well.

Sam and Emma tackle a huge last week in news, as well as what's coming down the pike in Congress, the courts, and more. They also speak with Bhairavi Desai, Executive Director of the New York Taxi Workers Alliance (NYTWA), to discuss NYTWA's new debt forgiveness campaign for Medallion cab drivers. Bhairavi, Sam, and Emma dive into the recent conflict around the NYC taxi company Medallion, and how after decades of the city inflating the price, making hundreds of millions, while capitalizing particularly on immigrants taking out loans, the city helped bolster Uber and Lyft's unregulated takeover of the market, with some officials even going to work for them following their job in government. Next, they take on how COVID, in particular, created a massive impending problem for Medallion taxi cab drivers, who average $550,000 in debt, which is compounded by the floundering of city policy in effectively handling this, and what the NYTWA's recent protests have entailed, as well as what they're fighting for. Emma and Sam also cover developments in a few longstanding strikes, including the St. Vincent nurses, the United Mine Workers of America strike in Alabama, and the IATSE strike among some production unions, before touching on how Biden's administration has capitalized on pre-existing Trump immigration policy with the use of Title 42. They also look forward to what progression we can see over the next couple of weeks when it comes to the bipartisan infrastructure bill and reconciliation, touching on how Democrats could ensure the raising of the debt ceiling, what Pelosi's September 27th commitment means for reconciliation, and how the recent double backing by corporate Dems could affect what policy survives the next six days. Lastly, they touch on another democratic cop-out as Chuck Schumer hides behind the parliamentarian and the Democrats' relationship to immigration policy. And in the Fun Half: Jacob from Alabama talks unions and Hurricane Ida recovery, Gregory from Oklahoma gives some updates on both his candidacy and his main opponent in his upcoming election, and the MR crew walks through the step by step one-man show that was the blueprint for Pence's election overturn attempt. They also talk COVID updates, dive into the absurdities of Sam Harris, Joseph from Massachusetts grants Sam the unfortunate knowledge of who Logan Paul is, and Tulsi Gabbard joins Tucker to potentially nobody's pleasure, plus, your calls and IMs!
