Margins are tight, costs are up, and yet one of the biggest opportunities for hashtag#hotels might be right in the lobby — the bar and restaurant. I connected with Aaron Olson and Chris Manley of Crestline Hotels & Resorts to talk about how they're using food and beverage as a profit engine rather than a cost center — and why now is the time for operators to get creative. We break it all down on hashtag#NoVacancyNews, from mocktail menus to lighting, sound, service training, and Instagram-worthy presentation. Because even small improvements — 1 to 2 points of margin — add up fast when done across a portfolio.

Great Practice. Great Life. by Atticus

Great Practice. Great Life. by Atticus

What if you could transform a legacy law firm while staying true to your personal goals? In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life®, attorney Lauren Presser reveals the law firm growth strategies that transformed her practice, creating clarity, balance, and sustainable growth. After buying out her uncle's 50-year-old family firm in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, Lauren partnered with Atticus to modernize every part of her practice. The result was a 35% increase in revenue within one year, without sacrificing her family time or her sanity. This is a compelling narrative of courage, mentorship, and strategic innovation in a traditionally static industry. Lauren's transformation began with a clear why: she wanted to be fully present for her children while leading a thriving practice. Every change she made flowed from that intention. With coaching and focus, she trained her legal assistants to lead initial consultations, replaced discounts with fixed-fee packages, and introduced structured scheduling: no walk-ins, time templates, and set client touchpoints. Lauren's story is a masterclass in law firm growth strategies that actually work. Her firm's culture evolved too. Lauren implemented a simple bonus structure built around three measurable KPIs, aligning her team and inspiring accountability. The result was a calm, collaborative environment where everyone knew what success looked like. Lauren's story proves that growth doesn't require burnout. By setting boundaries, empowering her team, and leading with purpose, she built a profitable firm that supports her life instead of consuming it. Her journey is a powerful example of what's possible when you pair intentional leadership with practical systems and a reminder that success at work means little if you miss the moments that matter most at home. In this episode, you will hear: Lauren Presser's transformation from associate to principal owner of a 50-year-old law firm Strategies for achieving a 35% revenue increase while maintaining work-life balance Implementation of fixed pricing models and bonus structures based on key performance indicators Overcoming challenges in a family-run firm and navigating systemic changes with the help of mentorship Strategic moves, such as relocating to a larger office space to accommodate a growing team Importance of setting boundaries to ensure personal well-being and professional success Empowering non-lawyers to conduct initial consultations and the benefits of adopting innovative business practices Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

We always hear about how little service workers are paid because restaurants operate on such thin margins. Jeremy Bradley calls BS on that. Why? "Explain $14 less-than-full glasses of wine when I can buy an entire bottle for $4 at Trader Joe's," he says. "I'm paying $7 for a side of fries that equals one potato. Would you ever pay $7 for one potato?" Yes, factor in the prep time (if potatoes are cut in-house), materials (oil, fryer, etc.) but isn't $7 a little extreme for a fried potato? On top of that, JB takes issue that he's expected to "reward" staff for walking back and forth to do their jobs when it comes to tipping. Later, he explains that he doesn't appreciate apps that solicit customers to tip before anything is even done with an order -- and manipulate customers with messaging like "orders with higher tips are often taken first" or "it's raining, tip generously." NMP, he says -- not - my - problem -- about workers earning low wages or driving in rain if they agreed to take the job.

State of AI 2025 with Nathan Benaich: Power Deals, Reasoning Breakthroughs, Real Revenue

Power is the new bottleneck, reasoning got real, and the business finally caught up. In this wide-ranging conversation, I sit down with Nathan Benaich, Founder and General Partner at Air Street Capital, to discuss the newly published 2025 State of AI report—what's actually working, what's hype, and where the next edge will come from. We start at the physical layer: energy procurement, PPAs, off-grid builds, and why water and grid constraints are turning power—not GPUs—into the decisive moat.From there, we move into capability: reasoning models acting as AI co-scientists in verifiable domains, and the “chain-of-action” shift in robotics that's taking us from polished demos to dependable deployments. Along the way, we examine the market reality—who's making real revenue, how margins actually behave once tokens and inference meet pricing, and what all of this means for builders and investors.We also zoom out to the ecosystem: NVIDIA's position vs. custom silicon, China's split stack, and the rise of sovereign AI (and the “sovereignty washing” that comes with it). The policy and security picture gets a hard look too—regulation's vibe shift, data-rights realpolitik, and what agents and MCP mean for cyber risk and adoption.Nathan closes with where he's placing bets (bio, defense, robotics, voice) and three predictions for the next 12 months.

S&P Futures are pointing lower this morning as investors digest a wave of earnings, Fed commentary, and geopolitical updates. Mega-cap tech continues to deliver strong margins, though Microsoft's softer PC outlook weighed on its guidance. Fed Chair Jerome Powell struck a hawkish tone in yesterday's press conference, signaling that a December rate cut is not a foregone conclusion. Meanwhile, U.S.–China talks wrapped up as expected, easing trade tensions with no surprises. We'll also touch on YouTube's expiring agreement with Disney, the FDA's push to streamline biologic drug testing, and the latest corporate movers — from GOOG and LLY to META, MSFT, and MRK. After the bell, all eyes turn to Apple, Amazon, Coinbase, Reddit, and Roku, with ABBV, CVX, and XOM set to report tomorrow morning.

Death is the great equalizer, but not all deaths are created equal. In recent years, there has been an increased interest and advocacy concerning end-of-life and after-death care. An increasing number of individuals and organizations from health care to the funeral and death care industries are working to promote and encourage people to consider their end-of-life wishes. Yet, there are limits to who these efforts reach and who can access such resources. These conversations come from a place of good intentions, but also from a place of privilege. Too Poor to Die: The Hidden Realities of Dying in the Margins (Rutgers UP, 2025), is a collection of closely connected essays, takes the reader on a journey into what happens to those who die while experiencing homelessness or who end up indigent or unclaimed at the end of life. Too Poor to Die bears witness to the disparities in death and dying faced by some of society's most vulnerable and marginalized and asks the reader to consider their own end-of-life and disposition plans within the larger context of how privilege and access plays a role in what we want versus what we get in death.

Episode #355 - 10 Creative Holiday Offers That Don't Hurt Your Ecommerce Product Margins When you think “holiday offer,” you probably think discount. 20% off, 30% off… like Oprah's handing out promo codes: you get a discount, you get a discount, everybody gets a discount! But deep discounts aren't the only way to win during BFCM. In fact, for some brands, they do more harm than good — eroding margins, cheapening perception, and training your customers to only shop sales. In this episode, I'm sharing 10 creative, margin-friendly holiday offers that drive sales without cutting into your bottom line — plus tips to make them shine in both email and SMS.
