A new study confirms what you may have already suspected, banks are making big profits, even out doing their international counterparts. The four main players have focused on making money rather than investing in technology that could lead to a more competitive market. The Commerce Commission draft report concludes there are weak incentives for the major players to compete on price. It said ongoing disruptives forces need to be baked in to address the lack of obvious, aggressive competition, that means customers are missing out. It warns right now Kiwibank's not big enough to be that force. Minister of Commerce and Consumer Affairs, Andrew Bayly speaks to Lisa Owen.
Real Estate Investing With Jay Conner, The Private Money Authority
Private Money isn't asking, it's offering the opportunity. In Jay's Private Money world, you're the bank. Protected and privileged. And the secret sauce? Self-directed IRAs for tax-smart moves!In today's episode of Raising Private Money, Jay joins Jeremy Dyers' The Freedom Point Real Estate Podcast where he unravels the motivating force that fuels his impressive track record, including steering over $118,000,000 in transactions. Alongside his wife, Carol Joy, Jay spearheads a coaching program that orbits around the power of private funding, a revelation that will redefine your investment strategy.Private Money: The Unconventional TeacherEmphasizing education over solicitation, Jay Conner champions teaching people about private lending. By sharing knowledge with associates from various spheres of his life, he has not only facilitated high-return avenues for them but also profoundly impacted their retirement years. Jay's approach demystifies the private money program, encouraging a seamless tax-free transition of retirement funds into fruitful investments.Building Blocks for New InvestorsUnderstanding the plight of investors in the context of the global crisis of 2009, Jay Conner advocates for investment strategies that are resilient and adaptable. His experience during this tumultuous time led him to harness private funds, underlining the importance of seeking solutions and growth during periods of difficulty. For new investors, Jay's insights provide clarity on structuring investments and the inherent protection mechanisms akin to traditional banking systems.Single-Family Investments: A Banking PerspectiveIn the single-family home investment paradigm, Jay Conner describes investors as 'the bank'—lending money secured against real estate with terms highly favorable when compared to traditional banking products. This secured method, he says, not only yields higher returns but also maintains a conservative loan-to-value ratio, ensuring a buffer to protect the investor's capital.Private Lending vs. Syndication: A Comparative GlimpseJay Conner's explanation of the stark contrasts between single-family investments and multifamily syndications sheds light for passive investors on the distinction between the two. While the former involves a direct lending process secured by individual properties, the latter pools investor funding into a larger fund managed in collaboration with an SEC attorney.Securing the Investor's InterestThe podcast delves into the safeguards inherent in private lending, such as inclusion in insurance and title policies, which Jay Conner emphasizes as critical to secure investors' interests similar to any institutional lender. Innovatively, these protective measures provide a clear perspective on risk management in private real estate deals.Future Prospects and Tax ImplicationsTackling the question of plans, Jay Conner discusses how a self-directed IRA facilitates tax-advantaged growth for investors, though private lenders might miss out on certain benefits like tax depreciation. Nonetheless, a self-directed IRA remains a powerful tool enabling investors to direct their retirement funds into real estate without incurring taxes or penalties.The conversation with Jay Conner and Jeremy Dyer not only illuminates the rich potential within the real estate market but also offers invaluable wisdom for both seasoned and aspiring investors. Unlocking the secrets to lucrative investments, Jay's journey inspires many to consider private lending as a pivotal step towards financial liberty.Mastermind Mentorship in Real Estate Investing: "Nothing else gives me more, makes me more happy, and gives me more joy than m
Effective employer branding is not just about attracting candidates but also about retaining existing employees. A positive work environment and reputation increase employee satisfaction and reduced turnover. As a recruiter, how can you partner with your client companies to achieve employer branding objectives? To answer this question, I am delighted to have a very special guest, Bryan Adams, CEO and founder of Ph.Creative, an award-winning employer branding agency with offices in Liverpool, London, San Diego, and Auckland. Bryan shares insights and strategies on creating an effective storytelling framework to apply this branding philosophy: repel the many and compel the few. Bryan helps his clients define their essence as a company, both in its uniqueness and what it stands for, and then crafts and aligns those aspirations with the people his clients are looking to attract. They've worked with famous brands such as Apple and Nike. He is also a two-time best-selling author. His latest book is Give & Get:Repel the Many and Compel the Few with Impact, Purpose, and Belonging. He has written for the Harvard Business Review, Inc.com, the Entrepreneur magazine, and has been featured in Forbes. Episode Outline and Highlights [02:22] How Bryan launched his branding agency. [05:45] DIscussion on employer branding and the philosophy of attracting the right people. [13:01] Roadmap in helping your client attract the right people. [18:02] What are the components of a good employer brand? [27:41] Bryan gives us key stories from his book, Give & Get Employer Branding. [30:36] What mistakes do companies make concerning employer branding? [37:31] How can recruiters partner with their client companies in achieving the objectives of employer branding? [43:00] Book recommendations and references on storytelling. [48:10] Employer branding case studies on small to medium-sized businesses. Repel the Many and Compel the Few - A Guide on Employer Branding Recruiters are ambassadors of their clients. Understanding the employer brand of the company they represent is crucial to attracting the right candidates. Effective employer branding is critical for attracting, engaging, and retaining top talent. It goes beyond just salary and benefits; it encompasses the company's values, culture, work environment, opportunities for growth, and overall employee experience. Contrary to the notion that the correct branding should attract as many candidates as possible, Bryan believes that doing it right should only compel a few, well-screened candidates. He said: “And it's interesting still in a recent survey, 70% of employer brand leaders still cite an increase in volume of applicants and traffic to their career site as a success metric when delivering an employer brand. I've never met a TA leader, a talent attraction leader who just wants more applicants, more noise, more admin, and more work to get to the people who are ideally matched.” Bryan shared case studies of corporations and small-medium businesses they worked with and how the right employer branding worked well to find the right people. Bryan pretty much defined the right approach to branding when he said “The idea is, if you're confident and clear enough to know your culture and what it takes to drive the organization forward, and you also can answer some fundamental questions of not just why people join, but why they stay, then you can craft a give and get proposition which is a two-way value exchange of not just what you stand to get as an employer but actually what you're willing to give in return candidates and employees alike can make very informed career decisions as to whether it's an ideal match.” How to Strategize a Good Employer Brand Bryan shared the mistakes companies make when envisioning and strategizing their employer brand. He also shared vital pointers and elements to consider in designing and marketing effective talent branding. It leads to creating a communication framework, which should include the following: Research - the goal is to look for something authentic enough for employees to try on and recognize their personal experience in the messaging that you will put out. Ask the right questions - organizations need to ask the right questions and get the right information to create a messaging that makes sense for them while compelling a segment of the talent audience that they are targeting. Messaging - Bryan described it clearly: get a 360 view and design the messaging to touch a very tangible bridge between the reality of today and the aspiration of tomorrow. Brand Essence - just like Nike's “Just Do It” campaign, a clear brand essence needs to start a conversation where people can look at the sentiment of what you are saying and be intrigued or make an interpretation that can create an affinity with the audience. Bryan also discussed the importance of storytelling. He mentioned that this is part of what makes their company successful and also shared books and references that you can look into if you plan to begin engaging in this skill. How Can Recruiters Promote Their Client's Employer Brand? How can recruiters partner with their client companies in achieving the objectives of employer branding? I was interested in picking Bryan's brains on this question and he was able to give insightful advice which is to focus on creating a compelling story structure. “The formula is this: empathy, curiosity, surprise, insight, and action,” Bryan said. This approach to creating a story structure he shared is interesting as it is backed up by psychology. This is how he explained it: “Empathy is an emotional immediate connection to the organization, what they're trying to do, and the purpose and vision of the organization. Curiosity is something that differentiates you from everybody else and gets people to lean in. So there's an emotional connection and now we're leaning in. Surprise is here's three things that you didn't know. You weren't expecting this. So what we're doing is we're playing with, we're opening the right side of the mind now, the right side of the brain, such that you're now ready to receive facts and information, insights and specific that you can deliver about the role. So we've talked about the company, maybe there's curiosity about the team and the specific objectives in that team, then insight around the specific role, and then we make a call to action. Usually, the call to action ties everything together from a purpose perspective. And if you walk through that formula, it's incredibly powerful if you have a proposition that's compelling and true that plays on all of the strengths that we've talked about.” Our Sponsor This podcast is proudly sponsored by i-intro i-intro® is an end-to-end retained recruitment platform.

Sales and marketing teams play similar roles in a company. However, many business owners fail to understand the relationship between sales and marketing, costing them resources and the opportunity to efficiently scale their businesses. When it is understood, cultivated, and optimized, a balance of sales and marketing can create happy, long-term customers while boosting a company's growth. In this episode, I discuss the relationship between sales and marketing. I define what sales and marketing teams are and describe their tasks and responsibilities within a company. I explain how the collaboration between sales and marketing teams increases efficiency and creates long-term, happy clients. I also highlight why margin matters more than volume and underscore why business owners need to include sales and marketing together in their strategic plans. “Sales and marketing are like a hand and a glove, like pepperoni and pizza, and like peanut butter and jelly.” - Justin Goodbread This week on the Financially Simple Experience: Why many businesses don't see the relationship between sales and marketing The definitions of sales and marketing How sales teams convert qualified prospects into satisfied customers The importance of growing your business through a long-term relationship strategy The sales team's mission to convert prospects into long-term, happy clients How marketing teams identify the perfect customer Why sales and marketing teams need to collaborate Resources Mentioned: Book: Guerilla Marketing: Easy and Inexpensive Strategies for Making Big Profits from Your Small Business by Jay Conrad Levinson Our Favorite Quotes: “People do business with people, not companies.
