In part 1 of this 2-part series, Amazon experts share Prime Day, AI, TikTok, PPC, image testing, and Helium 10 strategies to help sellers prepare, optimize, and win bigger.   In this special Part 1 of a two-part AM/PM Podcast series, Carrie Miller brings together top Amazon, TikTok Shop, PPC, image optimization, AI, and Helium 10 experts to help sellers prepare for Prime Day. The episode focuses on strategies that can be implemented before the rush, from improving conversion rates and campaign structure to using AI tools for faster execution. The first set of experts dives into practical Prime Day tactics, including using AMC audiences to target higher-converting shoppers, scaling international keyword research with Google Sheets AI and Helium 10, and using AI-assisted workflows to build PPC bulk files. The episode also highlights the importance of main image testing, with strategies from PickFu and AMC One Step showing how sellers can benchmark against competitors, test creative angles, and use SERP simulations to improve click-through rates.   TikTok also plays a major role in this episode. Sellers learn how to validate products with Helium 10's TikTok Hot Videos, use TikTok as a top-of-funnel channel for Amazon Prime Day, and create subtle content that drives inbound interest without relying on overt Amazon calls to action. Experts also discuss protecting margins, avoiding unnecessary over-discounting, and using voice-to-text AI tools like WhisperFlow to speed up daily e-commerce workflows.   The episode closes with advanced strategies around external traffic, listing optimization, Market Tracker 360, hybrid Prime Day deal structures, and AI-powered product briefs. The biggest lesson is clear: Prime Day success is not just about running a discount. It is about preparing early, improving conversion, understanding your market, using data wisely, and applying AI where it saves time and sharpens decision-making. This first part sets the foundation for sellers who want to turn Prime Day traffic into profitable, long-term momentum.   In episode 520 of the AM/PM Podcast, Carrie, Shivali, and guest speakers discuss: 00:00 - Introduction 01:37 - Destaney Wishon: AMC Audience Strategy 05:48 - Ritu Java: AI keyword and PPC Hacks 15:38 - Adrienne Van Nimer: Image Testing Workflow 19:18 - Alina Vlaic: Prime Day, TikTok, and AI tips 26:02 - Michelle Barnum-Smith: TikTok Prime Day Strategy 34:58 - Kamaljit Singh: Main Image Testing Tip 41:11 - Leo Sgovio: External Traffic and Listings Strategy 52:39 - Delaney Del Mundo: Deals and Market Insights

Have we made the manager's role more complex without making it easier to make good decisions? Over the past decade, expectations on managers have grown significantly. They're expected to make decisions that are fair, data-informed, and financially responsible - often in real time and under increasing scrutiny. Yet in many organisations, the systems designed to support those decisions haven't evolved at the same pace. So, in this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green speaks with Kenneth Matos, Director of Market Insights at HiBob, to explore what it takes to design better decision environments for modern organisations. Drawing on new global research involving 4,700 people managers, Ken shares why the time spent stitching together data and the lack of a unified HR–Finance view are undermining decision quality - and what leaders must do to enable managers to balance people fairness with financial discipline. Tune in to learn more about: Why decision friction is emerging as a hidden barrier to organisational agility How fragmented data undermines fairness, consistency, and trust in people decisions What changes when HR and Finance operate from a shared contextWhy defensibility is becoming critical in an era of pay transparency and scrutinyHow AI can reduce decision friction when implemented with the right guardrailsWhy designing better decision environments is becoming a core leadership priority This episode is sponsored by Hibob. HiBob brings HR, Payroll, and Finance together into a single platform that employees actually use. With AI throughout, you move faster, work smarter, and empower your people to power your business.

Calibrate Real Estate Podcast #201 In this episode of the Calibrate Real Estate Podcast, host Kyle Malnati sits down with Scott Rathbun, the President and Owner of Apartment Appraisers and Consultants (AANC), to discuss the current state of the apartment market in the Denver Metro Area. This episode provides valuable insights and data-driven analysis for real estate professionals and decision-makers in the Denver Metro Area, as they navigate the current market conditions and plan for the future. Here are key takeaways: The Denver Metro Area is experiencing a slowdown in population growth and employment, which are typically the key drivers of housing demand. The demand for apartments remains high due to the increasing unaffordability of homeownership, leading to a delay in the transition from renting to owning. The apartment market has been overbuilt, resulting in rising vacancy rates and the need for landlords to offer significant concessions to attract tenants. The decline in rents is impacting the affordable housing market, as market-rate rents are now competing with subsidized affordable units. The development pipeline is shrinking, which could lead to a future shortage of new apartment supply and a potential resurgence in rent growth. Investors and developers should closely monitor the market trends and be prepared to adjust their strategies accordingly. Renters may have more negotiating power in the short term, but the long-term outlook suggests the potential for a tightening market and rising rents. Policymakers and affordable housing advocates should consider ways to incentivize the development of affordable units to mitigate the impact of the market-rate rent competition.
