Podcasts about Magic number

We first met Peter Komendowski at Canoecopia. A life-long wilderness traveler originally from Chicago, and now living in Iowa, Peter completed three solo canoe trips over the last 13 months. In Part One of this two-part conversation we hear about his most recent trip, a 14 day paddle of the Lady Chain, Alton Lake, Kelso and Sawbill. Early in the trip, he gets drenched, sustains a mild injury and reframes the way he approaches portaging. An advocate of "detoxing" from technology, Peter describes how his solo Wilderness trips lead to a deep exploration of aging and what he refers to as the transition between "an objective world to a subjective world."

Reviews are one of the most powerful levers for your dental practice's visibility — but not always in the way most dentists think. In this episode, I sit down again with local SEO thought leader Colan Nielsen from Sterling Sky to cut through the noise about Google reviews, rankings, and how to actually get found by more patients. Colan and his team run ongoing SEO testing (so you don't have to) and bring real data on what matters — and what's just hype. We discuss what moves the needle on your Google Business Profile, how review quantity and recency affect map pack rankings, and why hitting that “magic 10” review milestone matters more than you realize. If you've been guessing at local SEO or feel stuck competing with practices with hundreds of reviews — this conversation will give you clarity and actionable next steps.   What You'll Learn From This Episode The truth about keywords in reviews — why telling patients to mention “dental implants” or “Invisalign” doesn't help you rank. The magic number to hit first — how going from 9 to 10 reviews gives a measurable boost in local rankings. Why recency beats volume — keeping a steady stream of new reviews is more important than chasing huge totals. Primary vs. secondary categories — how your Google Business Profile category choices impact visibility. Tools & metrics that matter — see how Sterling Sky measures you against top competitors month to month. When (and when not) to run branded Google Ads — stop wasting budget where it's not needed. — Key Takeaways 00:46 Introduction to Google Reviews and SEO 04:50 The Importance of Customer Service in Rankings 07:50 Understanding Local SEO and Google Business Profiles 12:57 The Impact of Review Text on Rankings 22:24 Review Velocity and Its Effect on Rankings 25:38 The Magic Number: 10 Reviews 27:58 The Role of Review Recency in SEO 34:35 Primary and Secondary Categories in Google Rankings 39:13 The Future of Reviews and AI in SEO 40:44 Branded AdWords and Their Effectiveness   — Connect with Colan Website & Newsletter: www.sterlingsky.ca YouTube Channel: Sterling Sky Inc   — Learn proven dental marketing strategies and online reputation management techniques at DrLenTau.com.

Mike Caulfield shares about using AI as a co-reasoning partner and his Deep Background tool on episode 590 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode Critical thinking problems with students turn out to be critical doing problems. -Mike Caulfield AI doesn't naturally think in terms of provenance, in terms of how it got this piece of information. It's a little bit of a bolt on afterthought. -Mike Caulfield Searching for information is a journey. How can we get the benefits of AI but still preserve that feeling of a journey? -Mike Caulfield I'm working on this issue of follow ups with AI. It is magic to get students to think of these responses as not a single transaction. They're coaching the AI through a process, not to get a specific answer that they want, but to look at the sorts of sources that matter for the question. -Mike Caulfield Resources Deep Background: A “Superprompt” to change the way you use LLMs Reading the Room with SIFT Toolbox New SIFT Toolbox Release (Substack) SIFT Method (The Four Moves) Verified: How to Think Straight, Get Duped Less, and Make Better Decisions about What to Believe Online, by Mike Caulfield and Sam Wineburg Interview with Mike Caulfield on Deep Background (AACE Review) Is the LLM Response Wrong, or Have You Just Failed to Iterate It, by Mike Caulfield Episode 492: Verified with Mike Caulfield on Teaching in Higher Ed Starlight Bowl in San Diego Sound of Music “Everything Could Have Been a Huge Disaster”: Nathan Fielder on Making ‘The Rehearsal' Season 2 It Runs Through Me, Tom Misch (feat.

Luton got back to winning ways with a much more encouraging 1-0 over Doncaster Rovers on Saturday afternoon. Kev is joined by The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe to reflect on a day which offers up more hope than plenty that have gone before it. The boys reflect on the 90 minutes of action, the formation change and the key performers who shone particularly in the first half before turning the attention to all the talk either side of the game. There is a discussion around the future of the club in light of the interview given by Gary Sweet to BBC 3CR and what it all means for now and then. All this and so much more on the longest-running, award-winning Luton Town podcast. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks to the team at Marsh House for our new podcast studio.

We can't think that way. Uncle Stevie is the bright light in the middle of the dark. We're going to be an amazing (or at the very least respectable) team this team. We Gotta Believe.

It's been a tough time for party leaders. After Ontario Liberal leader Bonnie Crombie resigned following her 57% leadership review score, Marit Stiles of the Ontario NDP managed only a little better with 68%. Over in British Columbia, John Rustad of the Conservatives scored 70%. While Crombie couldn't hold on, Stiles and Rustad plan to stick around. But what number is good enough to stay on as leader — and what number should Pierre Poilievre aim for in his upcoming leadership review to keep his job safe?This week on The Numbers, we chat about these leadership review results and what they mean. We also discuss new federal polling numbers and the opening moves of the NDP leadership race for contenders Avi Lewis and Heather McPherson. Plus, we break down some new provincial survey results out of Quebec, Manitoba and Nova Scotia.

The Eagles head to Kansas City for a Super Bowl LIX rematch against the Chiefs in Week 2. Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid were thoroughly embarrassed last February for the championship, and Mahomes has never lost 3 straight games at any point in his professional career. The Birds are coming off a division win at home against Dallas and have their star lineman Jalen Carter back for this game, after he was ejected from the Week 1 matchup in the Spit-Gate incident with Dak Prescott. Jalen Hurts played like MVP-Jalen and made all the right moves last Thursday Night in the opener, after the Eagles raised their Super Bowl LIX Banner. He will look to lead the team to a 2-0 start and keep the good vibes rolling with Head Coach Nick Sirianni leading the troops. The Phils dismantled the Mets in Philly this week, completing a four-game-sweep and ending New York's hopes of an NL East Title. With their Magic Number sitting at just 5 games, the Fightins are in firm control of the 2 seed in the National League, which would give them a bye for the Wild-Card Round. The Royals come to town this weekend for a 3-game set at the Bank as the red-hot Phils look to keep truckin'. Segments include: VetPhact, Prem's NFL Picks.

The SaaS Magic Number is one of the most Googled SaaS metric posts — but it's also one of the most misunderstood. In episode #310, Ben Murray explains what the SaaS Magic Number really measures, why investors care about it, and the benchmarks you should use to evaluate your own business model. From the formula (revenue growth vs. sales & marketing spend) to the nuances (why churn and expansion impact the metric), Ben shows SaaS operators how to avoid common pitfalls. You'll also hear the latest benchmark data from Ray Rike at Benchmarkit.ai, giving you investor-ready context for your next fundraising or valuation conversation. What You'll Learn: What the SaaS Magic Number is and how to calculate it. Why it's more than just a sales and marketing efficiency metric. The nuance: contraction, churn, and customer success also affect the number. Why ARR size and ACV segmentation are critical for accurate benchmarking. When the metric is most useful (short sales cycles, PLG) vs. when to be cautious (enterprise sales cycles). Why It Matters for SaaS Operators & Investors: The Magic Number is a widely used investor metric to gauge efficiency. Clean reporting builds confidence with investors and supports higher company valuations. Benchmarks by ARR and ACV provide a realistic picture of growth efficiency. Using the wrong interpretation can lead to bad decisions in finance strategy and fundraising.
