This episode features an interview with Cristy Garcia, CMO, impact.com, a partnership management platform that automates business partnerships, at scale.In this episode, Cristy shares the do's and don'ts of marketing, and the primary reason for failed partnerships. She also discusses the evolution and importance of using influencers in marketing, and what it's like marketing to marketers.Key Takeaways:Influencers have been around for awhile, but they became even more important during the pandemic. If you aren't working with influencers as a marketer, you're being left behind. When partnerships fail, it is most often due to lack of communication. Make sure to be very clear about payments, expectations, and what you are promoting. You can generate significant revenue through partnerships, for some companies, as high as 28 percent of their total revenue. Quote: “If you're not working with influencers right now as a marketer, you're left behind. This is happening now. The rise of influencers, they've been around for a long time, I spoke at mommy blogger conferences back in 2012, so it's not new. But what is new is sort of the heightened awareness and demand for influencer content. And I think it all happened around the pandemic when people were at home with their phones, creating social interaction, buying things online, and the influencers really took off.”Episode Timestamps:*(3:06) The Trust Tree: The rise of commerce content*(14:20) The Playbook: THe dos and don'ts of partnerships*(35:55) The Dust Up: Knowing your worth*(37:28) Quick Hits: Cristy's quick hitsSponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com, the #1 Conversational Marketing platform for companies that use Salesforce and the secret weapon for pipeline pros.

In this episode, the hosts discuss the new games coming to Fortnite, including Lego Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival. They also analyze the trailer for GTA 6 and share their thoughts on the game's world and characters. Finally, they speculate on the possibility of next-gen consoles being released alongside GTA 6. The conversation covers topics such as GTA 6, Dragon Age, Game Pass partnerships, Shohei Otani's destination, ownership of digital movies, physical media, and Game Awards predictions. In this episode, the hosts review the movie Die Hard and discuss whether it is a Christmas movie. They praise the pacing and setting of the film, as well as the flawed and relatable protagonist. The hosts also discuss the sequels to Die Hard and share their thoughts on the upcoming Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora game release. They conclude the episode by inviting listeners to join them for their live coverage of the Game Awards. Website: https://strangelyawesomegames.com/ Vote for our 2023 Best of Awards here! Takeaways Fortnite is introducing new games within its platform, including Lego Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival. The trailer for GTA 6 showcases a vibrant and detailed world set in a fictionalized version of Florida called Leonida. The hosts are excited about the potential of GTA 6's story mode and the intimate, low-level crime focus. The release of GTA 6 may coincide with the launch of next-gen consoles, offering an enhanced gaming experience. GTA 6 is expected to have marketing partnerships with Sony or Microsoft. Dragon Age is targeting a full reveal and potential release in summer 2024. Game Pass is unlikely to be available on PlayStation or Nintendo platforms. Shohei Otani's destination is uncertain, but Toronto is a potential contender. Ownership of digital movies on PlayStation is at risk due to rights issues. Physical media, such as steel books, can provide a more tangible and secure ownership experience. The Game Awards predictions include categories such as action-adventure, narrative, and game of the year. Die Hard is a classic action movie with a Christmas setting, making it a popular choice for holiday viewing. The pacing and setting of Die Hard contribute to its success, creating a claustrophobic and intense atmosphere. The flawed and relatable protagonist, John McClane, adds depth to the film and makes it more engaging. The sequels to Die Hard vary in quality, with Die Hard 3 and Die Hard 4 being particularly well-received. The hosts are excited about the upcoming release of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and invite listeners to join them for their live coverage of the Game Awards.

Golf. Hard to believe there are other sports played here in The Valley as everywhere you look is a golf course. But one organization in particular is celebrating 100 years this year, the AZ Golf Association. The AZ Golf Association serves as the official governing body of amateur golf in Arizona. What started as a small group of golfers who got together to run the annual Amateur Championship has grown to an association of more than 700 men's and women's clubs, serving nearly 80,000 individual members. Today, the AGA is a volunteer-based organization directed by amateur golfers promoting the game of golf and providing valuable benefits and services to its members. This week I have Chris Montgomery who is the Dir of Marketing & Partnerships at AGA. Hopefully I can learn a thing or two about the game. We also have two of our favorites, Jeremy Mueller of State Farm Insurane and Dr. Rob DiVito of AZ Center for Laser Dentistry.

Jenna is the CMO of IPSY, a direct to consumer business which happens to be the largest beauty subscription brand in the world. Prior to that, she was the CMO for 7 for all mankind, the denim brand, and was recognized as Forbes top 50 Entrepreneurial CMOs. Jenna talks about how the creator economy and developing a tiered approach with influencers has been a significant growth driver for IPSY. She goes into the KPIs that are important to them like Earned Media Value and how that ties to organic traffic which is a direct source for acquisition and how these partnerships serve as a primary communication vehicle for product announcements and earned media to drive existing subscriber AOV. One of the sources IPSY has at their disposal is an influencer network that reaches north of 20M brand proponents. Not only do they have distribution at scale, but the brands and personalities of their creators, also then drive even more brand loyalty. So it's two feedback loops. One for distribution and another for brand sentiment. --- Where to find Jenna: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennahabayeb/ Where to find Patrick: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pcmoran/ --- Sources we discuss: https://www.tribedynamics.com/blog/earned-media-value https://www.ipsy.com/about --- (2:42) A description of IPSY as a business and when it got started (4:14) Brand Partnerships as a supply source of products, Marketing Partnerships for amplification, and Creator Partnerships (7:21) The differences between Marketing Partnerships and Creator Partnerships (9:11) How IPSY got started building their creator economy (11:44) Breaking down the creator economy into three tiers (16:35) Using Earned Media Value to determine effectiveness (19:34) Impacting new subs and driving engagement (21:29) Building non-transactional and authentic relationships with creators (24:03) The emergence of de-influencing (25:26) Using the community and customer forums for real time feedback and establishing deeper relationships (28:26) How the internal teams leading creators, the community, and paid acquisition work with each other (30:25) How brands and companies can get started with a strong influencer strategy and build larger and stickier communities (33:51) Defining effectiveness by aligning to business objectives (37:14) Investment approach for influencers and tying to the right KPIs (38:45) Starting small and thinking about creators as partners in both distribution and content

I'm Josh Cooperman and this is Convo By Design with a podcast episode about podcasting and how this form of communication is finally getting the attention of those in the shelter industry. Moderated by a longtime friend, Breegan Jane and empaneled by new friends who you will meet in just a moment. I learned a long time ago that you can't force people to embrace any ideas until they are ready to do it themselves. Podcasting is something I am extremely passionate about because I have been doing it for such a long time. At the start of this show, 10 years ago, I really wanted to gain the attention of the established media because I felt like I was providing a product not available. telling the stories behind the design instead of just showing the work itself because that has always been of greater interest to me. It took far longer than I thought it would and the reason why? Because showing pretty pictures is much easier to do. Talking about the celebrity designer, starchitect or celebrity client is the design porn that gets clicks and shares instantly. it takes far more time to listen to a 30 or 60 minute conversation where the ideas build. I'm going to keep the preamble short because following is a longer conversation about the growth and development of podcasting in our industry. I was fortunate to be invited by Kim Porter, Senior Programming Manager with IMC, and Las Vegas Market, who also gives the introduction at the very beginning. In this episode, you will also hear from; Justin Honaman of Contender Cast, Daniel Russo of The Design Exchange and Michelle Sherrier of The Retail Whore. And this panel was deftly moderated by a friend of the show and previous guest, Breegan Jane. Designer Resources ThermaSol - Redefining the modern shower experience. Episode 271 featuring Mitch Altman Moya Living - Beautiful, durable powder coated kitchen, bath & outdoor kitchen cabinetry Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home! What you are going to find is an entirely different conversation than you might expect. It covers everything from how and why to the stories that drew each of us to the platform and what the future of arts and design focused podcasting sounds like. We'll get to that right after this. Thank you Breegan, Michelle, Daniel, John. I really am so furtunate for an opportunity to share a stage with you. Thank you Kim for making this possible and Thank you to CXD partners and sponsors including ThermaSol, Moya Living, Design Hardware.. Thank YOU for taking the time out of your day to download, subscribe and listen to the show. I appreciate you and I hope this show helps you do that thing you do better.

“Control what you can control.” That's the mantra that Phoenix Suns SVP of Marketing Partnerships Tom Fletcher spoke to himself as his playing days in the NFL came to an end. It was his vow to never let his future be left to the capricious whims of some unknown team executive. With that, Tom began his sports business career by focusing on what he could control: building solid relationships, saying yes to opportunities, working with great teams of people, and so much more. That focus has seen him through some ups and downs throughout his career. In our conversation, we touch upon some of his unique challenge, what the transition away from being a professional athlete was like, and lessons he picked up hanging around Coach Nick Saban an the U Alabama football team.

This podcast is about big ideas on how technology is making life better for people with vision loss. Today's big idea is the power of virtual reality - how people are using VR to remap sight and help people with vision loss in their daily lives Dr. Roberts visits with Grace Andruszkiewicz and Dr. Frank Werblin about how emerging technologies help people with low vision access the areas of vision they still have, by using a virtual reality system. They also talk about how sight works biologically, and how one such device, IrisVision, works to connect people socially. The Big Takeaways: Virtual reality changes the sensory inputs our brain receives, to change the visual field our eyes are scanning and the sounds we are hearing. These new inputs trick the brain into thinking we're in a different reality. IrisVision is a combination of a Samsung phone and a headset for virtual reality that modulates the visual field of a person with low vision so they can see better. The technology re-maps the visual world they're seeing so it becomes resonant with their individual pathology. The development of IrisVision technology started as a device to improve macular degeneration, but has evolved to resolve any type of visual pathology (retinal versus cortical), including magnification or “minification” (reducing the size) to modify the visual field depending on the user's visual function. IrisVision re-mapping provides the brain access to the raw material; after using the device for a few months, users' native vision is often improved, ultimately leading to a renewed social connection for users. People who use the device need to have some remaining vision. Tweetables: “What's really meaningful too is helping people go back to places that are really emotionally meaningful from their past. When they feel like they're back in that place or doing that thing, they come alive again.” - Grace Andruszkiewicz describing senior's experience with virtual reality “Because the screen is a half an inch from your eyes, it's not uncommon for people to see something clearly for the first time in a VR headset.” - Grace Andruszkiewicz “It occurred to me that what was needed was a low-cost, non-invasive device that could recode the visual message in a way that would resonate with those islands of sight that people still have remaining.” - Dr. Frank Werblin on the development of IrisVision “Assisting patients with visual loss has a much broader function - it reconnects people with each other. IrisVision assists people in seeing the visual world, but what it's really doing is reconnecting them socially.” - Dr. Frank Werblin Contact Us: Contact us at podcasts@lighthouseguild.org with your innovative new technology ideas for people with vision loss. Pertinent Links: Lighthouse Guild Rendever IrisVision Guest Bios: Dr. Frank Werblin, Co-Founder, Chief Scientist, IrisVision IrisVision was founded by Dr. Frank Werblin, an MIT graduate, Guggenheim Fellow, and professor at UC Berkeley. Dr. Werblin is renowned for his scientific contributions to our understanding of retinal functioning. He has dedicated his life to innovating, developing and delivering an affordable non-invasive solution for millions of people with low vision. With the help of our research partners at Stanford, Johns Hopkins, UC Berkeley, UPMC, The Chicago Lighthouse for the Blind, and other institutions contributing to low vision science, IrisVision is the realization of that lifetime of work. He is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of low vision solutions by continuing to expand the relationship with top vision scientists and technology powerhouses like Samsung.

It just means you get to choose the terms upon which you partner with others. When you do, you further your success, and theirs.
