Right now there's a wave building in our industry, and most advisors are standing on the beach pretending it isn't there.AI isn't coming. It's here. And the gap between the advisors who lean into it and the ones who keep waiting is about to get a lot wider.In this episode, I sit down with Michael Hyatt — New York Times bestselling author, longtime entrepreneur, and someone who's quietly built an entire team of AI agents running inside his own business.We get into the tension every financial advisor is thinking about: privacy, client data, compliance, technical knowledge, and where AI actually fits in a relationship-driven business.Michael also explains where this is all headed, and why the biggest opportunity may not be replacing human work, but creating more space for the work only humans can do.If you've been telling yourself you'll figure AI out later, or that it doesn't really apply to a business like ours, this conversation might change your mind about how much time you actually have.3 Insights From This Week's Episode…#1.) The Story That's Quietly Costing Advisors Their FutureWhen AI comes up, a lot of smart, successful advisors check out. They decide it's too technical, too risky, or too late to start. Michael explains why that reaction has nothing to do with age or ability, and everything to do with something far more dangerous.#2.) The Client Data Objection Everyone Hides Behind"I deal with people's finances, so AI doesn't apply to me." It's the most common wall advisors put up, and on the surface it sounds responsible. We dig into why that thinking is more outdated than you'd expect, and what hiding behind it might be costing you.#3.) The New Advantage in a Relationship Business Financial advice is built on trust, presence, and human connection. We explore why AI may actually increase the value of great advisors by helping them show up more prepared, more focused, and more available for the work only humans can do.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/173FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALXInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.

Est-ce qu'on peut rester dans une niche quand on a l'impression de plafonner ? C'est la vraie question de cette leçon.Mon invitée aujourd'hui est Alizée Méhats, fondatrice de Maison Massillon, une marque de bijoux en porcelaine blanc et or, née sur Instagram alors qu'elle travaillait encore chez Chanel, et qui s'est imposée en 10 ans comme une référence auprès des futures mariées.Sa spécialité ? Réveiller un savoir-faire ancestral : les couronnes de cire que portaient nos grands-mères le jour de leur mariage. Un univers singulier avec un positionnement fort.Mais une question travaille Alizée : sa niche commence-t-elle à montrer ses limites ? Faut-il élargir la cible, se diversifier, attaquer un marché plus grand ?Avec Alizée, on explore une alternative souvent négligée, celle d'élargir sa niche plutôt qu'en sortir et on aborde un sujet que peu d'entrepreneurs osent vraiment poser : mesurer la valeur de ce qu'on a déjà construit avant de tout remettre en question.Une leçon très concrète pour celles et ceux qui hésitent entre approfondir leur singularité et courir après un marché plus grand, et qui veulent apprendre à choisir sans se brûler les ailes.Bonne écoute ✨CHAPITRAGE 00:00 – Introduction et la question d'Alizée02:11 – Le parcours d'Alizée : de Chanel à Maison Massillon06:24 – Sortir du mariage : est-ce vraiment la bonne question ?09:03 – Le « non bridal », une concurrence avec la terre entière13:56 – Élargir à l'international (États-Unis, Japon) plutôt que sortir de sa niche18:00 – Distribution, marketing push et pull, et ne pas se brûler les ailes Notes et références de l'épisode Pour retrouver Alizée Méhats : Sur LinkedInPour retrouver la Maison Massillon : Sur le site internetSur InstagramPour retrouver ma formation “Avoir une communication puissante” : Sur Demian.educationLe Replay du Grand Live - Les clés d'une marque incopiableHébergé par Audiomeans.

AI is one of the most powerful tools available to business owners right now.It's also making a lot of real estate agents completely forgettable.In this episode, we're talking about the AI pandemic happening across social media and why so many agents are accidentally blending into the noise instead of standing out.The problem isn't AI itself. The problem is how we're using it.When every flyer looks the same, every caption sounds the same, and every profile photo feels more artificial than authentic, we stop building the one thing that actually drives business: trust.We'll talk about:Why AI-generated marketing is becoming white noiseThe danger of losing your authentic voice onlineCommon AI mistakes real estate agents are makingHow to stand out in a sea of identical contentWhat to do instead if you actually want clients to know, like, and trust youBecause at the end of the day, real estate is still a people business.The agents who win won't be the ones using the most AI. They'll be the ones using it strategically while still showing up as real humans.If you're ready to create content that actually connects, this episode is for you.✨ Free Training:https://www.rosemarylewis.com/training✨ Join the Bestie community (email list):https://www.rosemarylewis.com/list✨ Six Figure Bestie (for agents building to $100K+):https://www.rosemarylewis.com/sixfigurebestieJoin the Six Figure Bestie, the community for women in real estate who are ready to build a six-figure business with Christ at the center.

Resale is forcing brands to rethink product design, pricing, and customer acquisition from the ground up. Ryan Rowe (Archive) and Alison Buchanan (Lululemon) join Brian and Alicia to unpack how lululemon's Like New evolved from a sustainability pilot into a meaningful commercial channel. We unpack messy reverse logistics, the AI agents now quietly running warehouse decisions, and the organizational vision required to make circular commerce work across a vertically structured enterprise. When the Future of Commerce Is Circular, Every Brand Is A Secondhand Brand Key takeaways: Resale has shifted from a sustainability gesture to a commercial channel with P&L accountability. Branded resale wins where third-party marketplaces can't: data integrity, trust, and brand language. Like New must operate to tackle a fundamentally different eCommerce problem — one-of-one inventory breaks mainline systems. AI is moving from assisting warehouse operators to serving as autonomous agents that optimize pricing and routing. Circular commerce is an acquisition engine; roughly half of resale shoppers are new to the lululemon brand. Key quotes: [02:41] "It's a very technical problem. It's a large-scale platform problem that touches virtually every piece of a brand's business." — Ryan Rowe [06:12] "Commerce is, is obviously just a space that we are starting to realize is a strong commercial lever… Like New for our business is really sitting at this intersection of business and impact." — Alison Buchanan [08:40] "Resale of lululemon was happening at scale already all around us. And it was either let it happen without us… or uphold our brand standards." — Alison Buchanan [26:26] "A lot of customers are actually trying brands for the first time with a used item… because it's a way for them to test things like fit and material and quality at a much lower barrier to entry." — Ryan Rowe In-Show Mentions: Archive Like New by Lululemon Associated Links: Check out Future Commerce on YouTube Check out Future Commerce Plus for exclusive content and save on merch and print Subscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce world Listen to our other episodes of Future Commerce Have any questions or comments about the show?

The Agents #007: Our AI Agent Negotiated a Vendor Renewal, Became a CFO and a Better SDR .. But Does He Have Too Many Guardrails? Episode 7 of The Agents, SaaStr's weekly show on the trials and tribulations of running a company with 21 AI agents, 3 humans, and a dog. This week Jason and Amelia debrief life after SaaStr AI Annual and discover that the agents didn't slow down just because the event ended. 10K is already planning SaaStr 2027, negotiating vendor renewals on his own terms, and somehow became a CFO while nobody was looking. Meanwhile, a guardrail problem quietly broke one of SaaStr's most-used apps for weeks, and the website agent is now outperforming every AISDR in the stack. This week: 14 guardrails pushed the VC pitch deck analyzer into rejecting everything, and the lesson is that over-guardrailing is just as dangerous as under-guardrailing. 10K got hooked up to Bill.com and found 8 years of collections automation that nobody had turned on. The AI VP of Marketing is now also running finance because convergence is real and agents do not care about org charts. And 10K sent a vendor a list of API demands before agreeing to renew, which the vendor did not love. Also: why losing your FDE might make you churn the vendor entirely, why Annie the website agent is writing better outbound than the actual outbound tools, and how 442,000 chats turned into 614 meetings with zero humans in the loop.

Money talks (and so should your P&L). This week, the guys are getting fiscal. Conrad and Gyi bring in two heavy hitters. First up, Leah Miller, fractional CFO and Founder of Firmly Profits, sits down with Conrad and Gyi at the PILMMA Super Summit and breaks down what your finances actually say about your marketing. The big (and predictable) surprise? Most firms are undercapitalized and under-measured. She and the guys dig into the real benchmarks: what healthy marketing spend looks like (you're probably low), what KPIs a CFO actually cares about, and why doubling your intake means nothing if your average case value is tanking. Consider this Chapter One. Then, Josh Porte from Holland & Knight demystifies the MSO model in plain English in a conversation recorded at Vista Consulting Team's A Seat at the Table event. If you've been nodding along to private equity conversations while secretly Googling "what is Rule 5.4," it's time to get schooled. Josh walks through how money flows between a law firm and an MSO, where the ethical guardrails actually live, what rollover equity means for sellers, and why the management services agreement you sign today might be with you for the next 20 years. Minimum. Advanced material, but we believe in you. Whether you're running a tight PI shop or eyeing an acquisition, this episode is a masterclass in treating your law firm like the business it actually is.

Most creators don't struggle because they lack expertise. They struggle because tech overwhelm, scattered tools, and indecision keep them from turning their knowledge into a scalable business. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Bryan McAnulty, founder of Heights Platform, shares how solopreneurs can use AI-powered tools to build profitable online courses and communities, without sacrificing authenticity or getting buried in tech headaches. Brian pulls back the curtain on Heights Platform, an all‑in‑one course creation and community platform used by creators in over 100 countries. Instead of using AI to churn out low-quality “slop content,” Heights uses AI to act like a virtual assistant and coach, helping you set up your programs, structure offers, handle technical details, and even plan your marketing, while you stay focused on the one thing only you can do: teaching from your real-world experience. You'll hear how features like live lessons, built‑in video calls, and gamified communities make it easy to deliver a premium, high‑touch learning experience. Bryan explains how you can run live cohorts directly inside your platform, automatically turn those sessions into course content, and use community features both to increase student results and to attract new leads with public community posts that rank in search, essentially turning your community into a living, SEO-friendly knowledge base under your own brand and domain. A big part of the conversation dives into pricing psychology and offer design. Bryan challenges the common trap of selling $10–$20 mini products and hoping volume makes up the difference. Instead, he walks through why most experts underprice themselves, why transformation and outcomes should drive your pricing (not video length or course size), and how adding community and live coaching can justify premium price points while delivering far better results for your students. https://youtu.be/_Vi-niuEZYs?si=EWdDlQeT8A_efrS5 Finally, Bryan shares a powerful perspective on thinking bigger with AI. As AI tools get faster and more capable, the real differentiator won't be who has access to AI; it will be how you work, how you think, and how clearly you communicate your vision to these tools. From internal dev tools that used to cost tens of thousands to build, to weekend projects now powered by AI, Bryan shows how creators and entrepreneurs can ride this wave instead of getting left behind. If you've ever felt stuck between too many platforms, too many decisions, and not enough momentum, this episode will give you a concrete path to launching (or relaunching) your online course and community with confidence. Quotes: "I don't see AI replacing the humans for this kind of expertise. Our goal is to assist you, because most people don't wake up every day excited to use software, they're excited about the outcome the software helps them achieve."  "If every business has this magical AI agent that can do anything, then what makes the difference between you and any other business? If everyone can generate unlimited content and unlimited software, the difference comes down to how you do things."  "There weren't really many platforms that were actually focused on helping your customers get results. Marketing is kind of a solved problem, but learning is not a solved problem."

Important Quotes from the podcast on Business and Entrepreneurship   There is no skill called “business.” Avoid business magazines and business classes. - Naval Ravikant   You have to work up to the point where you can own equity in a business. You could own equity as a small shareholder where you bought stock. You could also own it as an owner where you started the company. Ownership is really important.     Everybody who really makes money at some point owns a piece of a product, a business, or some IP. That can be through stock options if you work at a tech company. That's a fine way to start.

In this episode of BRAVE COMMERCE, Rachel Tipograph and Sarah Hofstetter sit down with Felicia Zhang, Head of Marketing at Bar Keeper's Friend, to discuss what it takes to modernize an iconic brand while maintaining the trust that made it successful in the first place. Drawing on experience across global brands including Nike, Oreo, and Nestlé, Felicia shares lessons from her transition to a smaller, more agile organization, where speed, experimentation, and continuous improvement are critical to success.The conversation explores why brands perform best when they're willing to launch, learn, and iterate rather than waiting for perfect conditions. Felicia also shares how her approach to leadership has evolved over time, including the importance of empowering teams to take action, embracing uncertainty, and finding optimism through periods of change.Key TakeawaysLaunching a strong V1 and improving through iteration often drives more progress than waiting for a perfect launch.The most effective teams combine strategic thinking with a willingness to roll up their sleeves and execute.Leadership becomes more effective when leaders focus less on controlling outcomes and more on empowering people and solving problems.

Think your business needs more marketing? Think again. In this episode, Ambrosia Carey shares why most beauty professionals don't have a marketing problem, they have an order problem. Learn the five foundations of sustainable business growth, from client experience and retention to referrals, value, and visibility. If you've been posting more, working harder, and still not seeing the results you want, this episode will help you identify the real bottleneck holding your business back. Plus, discover which business archetype you fall into and the simple shifts that can create more growth without burnout. Join our FREE 10 Day Business Challenge Try GlossGenius at 50% off Gold or Platinum using code SUCCESSFUL: http://glossgenius.com/successfulstylist Key Take-aways: 1. Many beauty professionals assume they need more visibility, followers, or content. In reality, growth often stalls because of weaknesses in retention, referrals, client experience, or value creation. 2. The strongest businesses create an experience worth talking about. Marketing may attract attention, but exceptional experiences create loyalty, trust, and word-of-mouth referrals. 3. Increasing retention by even a small percentage can generate thousands of dollars in additional revenue without attracting a single new client. 4. Referred clients often arrive with built-in trust because someone they already know has recommended your business. 5. Sometimes the solution isn't increasing volume, it's increasing the value you provide through better services, experiences, systems, and client outcomes. 6. Marketing doesn't fix weak systems. It magnifies them. Strong businesses focus on experience, retention, referrals, and value before scaling visibility. 7. Whether you're the Visibility Addict, Technician, Discount Queen, Busy But Broke Stylist, or Foundation Builder, identifying your patterns can help reveal your next opportunity for growth. 8. Consumers are craving authenticity, conversation, and connection. Community-based content is becoming more effective than highly polished marketing. 9. Email lists, podcasts, downloads, partnerships, and communities create long-term stability that isn't dependent on changing social media algorithms. 10.  Before investing more time into marketing, ask yourself: If 100 new clients showed up tomorrow, would your business retain them, serve them well, and turn them into advocates? 11. The fastest-growing businesses aren't trying to fix everything at once. They're identifying the next bottleneck and focusing their energy where it will create the greatest impact. 12. Growth becomes easier when you understand whether your challenge is retention, referrals, pricing, value, or visibility...and stop treating every issue like a marketing problem.

This video is sponsored by Salesforce. This week on The Modern Customer Podcast: Amber Armstrong, CMO of Agentforce Applications at Salesforce, joins me for a conversation recorded live at Salesforce Connections. Everyone is talking about AI agents. But according to Amber, the biggest question customers are asking is surprisingly simple: "Where do I start?" We discuss what's separating companies seeing real results from those still stuck in experimentation, why data readiness matters more than most people realize, and how AI agents are helping marketers engage customers, generate pipeline, and focus more on strategic work. As Amber explains, the future isn't about replacing marketers. It's about giving them the tools to do more of what humans do best. #SalesforcePartner Blake Morgan was called "The Queen of CX" by Meta.

#136Josh and Mike sit down with Ming-Tai Huh, restaurateur, MIT graduate, former Toast and Square executive, and co-founder of Cambridge Street Hospitality Group. Ming shares the unlikely path that took him from management consulting and technology into the restaurant industry, beginning with a spontaneous decision to open a restaurant after becoming deeply involved in his local Cambridge community. He reflects on his early days at Toast, helping to build foundational products such as online ordering, loyalty, APIs, and partnerships, and explains how his experience as both an operator and a technologist shaped the way he thinks about restaurant software.The conversation dives into the future of restaurant technology, AI, SaaS, restaurant operations, and why supply chain management remains one of the industry's biggest unsolved problems. Ming discusses the rise of AI agents, the growing gap between experienced operators and first-time restaurateurs, the realities behind scaling restaurant software, and why he believes marketing attribution and ROI measurement remain major opportunities for innovation. Along the way, he shares stories about getting married inside an unfinished restaurant, building Puritan & Company from scratch, and what operators can learn from both the restaurant and technology worlds.Links and resources

Marketing is the topic photographers ask about more than any other, and for good reason: you can have beautiful work, smart pricing, and a solid business model, but none of it matters if the right clients can't find you. For this best-of episode, we pulled six conversations from the Season 5 archive that, side by side, read like a complete marketing curriculum. Together they offer a clear, practical answer to the question underneath so many late-night worries: how do I get seen by the people I actually want to work with? In This Episode: Why scattered, inconsistent marketing falls flat, and the framework that gives you something strategic to start from Foundational tactics for building visibility from scratch, whether you're in a new town, a new niche, or a quiet season A "be seen" approach to putting yourself in front of the right people with simple, tangible actions Why email is a relationship tool, not just a sales tool, and the cadence that gives you permission to show up consistently The deliverability mechanics behind every email, and why quality of audience beats vanity metrics every time The throughline across all six conversations: your story is the one thing no one, and no AI, can replicate Each of these educators is part of TMA in some way, whether as a mentor, a featured educator, or a guest who shaped how the community thinks about this work. If these conversations leave you wanting a marketing system like the ones you heard, and the room where that work happens between episodes, this is your invitation.

Concern about short-termism among marketers jumped from 25% in 2022 to 55% in 2025. Budget allocation barely moved. The funnel may not be dead, but it might be damaging your brand.This week, Elena, Angela, and Rob debate whether the marketing funnel still belongs in the boardroom. They unpack why the funnel persists despite strong evidence against it, how ad platforms reinforce flawed thinking for commercial reasons, and what alternatives actually work. Topics covered:•    [01:00] Marketing Week article on why funnel reinvention is backfiring•    [02:00] The funnel as a mental shortcut vs. a map of how people buy•    [05:00] How ad platforms built funnel logic into their products for commercial reasons•    [07:00] Categories where the funnel fits (and where it falls apart)•    [11:00] The say-do gap: marketers believe in brand investment but budgets barely moved•    [15:00] Tom Roach's alternative: building, nudging, and connecting•    [18:00] How to plan media without the funnel•    [20:00] What great creative looks like when you stop thinking in funnel stagesTo learn more, visit marketingarchitects.com/podcast or subscribe to our newsletter at marketingarchitects.com/newsletter.Resources:2025 Marketing Week Article: https://www.marketingweek.com/reality-check-funnel-reinvent/Google Messy Middle Research: https://business.google.com/us/think/consumer-insights/navigating-purchase-behavior-and-decision-making/WARC Multiplier Effect Report: https://page.warc.com/the-multiplier-effect-reportThinkbox Profitability 2 Report: https://www.thinkbox.tv/profitability2Get more research-backed marketing strategies by subscribing to The Marketing Architects on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Go here: https://easybuttonrealestate.com/Summary:This week I sat down with Greg, a seasoned real estate operator out of the Seattle area who's been in the trenches of this business for years and this conversation did not disappoint. We kick things off with a raw story about a deal I fumbled. Signed too fast, left $30K on the table, and the buyer ended up regretting the whole thing too. It's one of those lessons that stings but the kind you actually learn from. From there, Greg and I go deep on what really separates the operators who last in this business from the ones who burn out or burn bridges. And spoiler: it's not AI, it's not the hottest software, and it's definitely not how loud you are online.We also get into some real talk about AI in real estate. What's actually useful, what's smoke and mirrors, and why the fantasy of automating your way to deals is setting a lot of people up for failure. Greg breaks down how he's using tools like his Atlas system to get in front of motivated sellers faster, but we're both clear that the money is still made in the room. In negotiations, relationships, and reputation built over years. If you're a real estate agent or investor trying to figure out how to actually build something that lasts, this one's for you.Connect with Cole Ruud-JohnsonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/coleruudjohnsonTwitter: https://twitter.com/coleruudjohnsonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/coleruudjohnsonTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@coleruudjohnson

Looking for daily inspiration?  Get a quote from the top leaders in the industry in your inbox every morning. Scott Brown is an attractions marketing leader with a career that spans family entertainment centers, digital solutions for attractions, and nearly a decade leading marketing initiatives for Family Entertainment Group. From working at miniature golf courses as a teenager to becoming a GM and marketing executive, Scott has built his career around creating memorable experiences and helping attractions connect emotionally with guests. Throughout the conversation, he reflects on the intersection of service, operations, and marketing, while sharing lessons learned from both leadership and frontline experience. In this interview, Scott talks about being an ambassador for service, how everything is marketing, and serving your niche. Being an ambassador for service “Excellent service is easy to understand, but it is very difficult to execute.” Scott explains that his passion for guest service was heavily inspired by his admiration for the Disney parks and their ability to create emotional connections with guests. Early in his leadership career, he immersed himself in service training philosophies and focused on teaching teams not only what to do, but why service matters. He emphasizes that excellent service is easy to understand but difficult to execute consistently because it requires leadership commitment, operational alignment, and emotional buy-in from employees. He also discusses how scalable service culture cannot rely solely on slogans or surface-level friendliness. Instead, it must be embedded into leadership behaviors and daily operations. Scott believes that service starts with leaders who genuinely care about their teams, understand employee challenges, and reinforce the broader vision behind the guest experience. By doing so, organizations create teams that continue delivering exceptional experiences even during difficult or stressful moments. Everything is marketing “Everything is marketing and marketing is everything.” Scott describes marketing as far more than advertisements, coupons, or social media campaigns. In his view, every guest touchpoint contributes to the marketing of an attraction, from the condition of the parking lot to the attitude of frontline employees. He explains that marketing and guest service are inseparable because marketing creates expectations while operations and service fulfill them. He shares that the strongest organizations intentionally align their messaging with the actual emotional experience guests will have on-site. When marketing promises one experience but operations fail to deliver it, the organization damages trust. Conversely, even attractions with weak advertising can generate powerful word-of-mouth marketing if the guest experience exceeds expectations. Scott repeatedly returns to the importance of emotion and “feel,” explaining that the best marketing communicates how guests will feel during the experience, not simply what they will buy. Serving your niche “If you want to be something for everybody, you're going to be something for nobody.” Scott believes one of the biggest mistakes attractions make is trying to appeal to everyone instead of identifying a distinct audience and emotional position in the marketplace. He explains that attractions are not simply competing against businesses with similar offerings, but against every experience that competes for guests' discretionary time and money. Using an example from his work with an entertainment center in Massachusetts, Scott describes how his team focused on positioning the venue as the place “where fun families come to compete and play.” He explains that the phrase was intentionally crafted to shape both the attraction's messaging and the emotional identity of the guests they hoped to attract. By clearly defining the type of guest experience they wanted to create, the organization was able to communicate more authentically and differentiate itself from competitors. Scott believes the most successful organizations are the ones that deeply resonate with a specific audience rather than attempting to broadly appeal to everyone.   Scott can be reached on LinkedIn, as well as by email at browngator1@gmail.com.

“Everybody's voice and their experience is so important.” - Allie ChandlerOne of the most frustrating realities in healthcare is that clinical excellence and visibility are not the same thing. Some of the most skilled, thoughtful, and effective practitioners struggle to talk about their work, while some of the loudest voices online don't have the depth of expertise to match their reach. For practitioners who genuinely want to help people, marketing can feel uncomfortable, performative, and disconnected from the reason they entered healthcare in the first place.But communication is part of care. If the people who need your help can't find you, understand what you do, or recognize themselves in your message, they never have the opportunity to benefit from your expertise. And that doesn't mean becoming someone you're not. It means learning how to communicate your work in a way that feels authentic, clear, and aligned with the people you're best equipped to serve.In today's episode, I'm joined by Allie Chandler, CEO of Upsell Health, and a marketing strategist who specializes in helping integrative and functional medicine practitioners find their voice and connect with the right clients. Drawing from her own healing journey through Lyme disease, mold illness, POTS, and complex chronic illness, Allie shares why authentic messaging matters so much in healthcare. We talk about identifying your ideal client, understanding your unique communication style, using AI without losing your voice, building trust through education, creating effective lead magnets, transitioning from a brick-and-mortar practice to an online or hybrid model, why nervous system regulation is an essential business skill to develop, and more.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!---Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/marketing-for-womens-health-professionals-with-allie-chandler/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).Find and follow us @integrativewomenshealth on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@integrativewomenshealth) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/integrativewomenshealth/).

AI is great at writing drafts, pulling data, and generating variations, but marketing has never really been about that kind of output. In this episode of Content Amplified, Sarah Balli, an external communications specialist who also does content creation, influencer marketing, and streams on Twitch, makes the case for keeping the human element in marketing during the AI era. Sarah explains why companies are looking to replace labor, not people, and why the parts of the job that matter most (taste, timing, and understanding people) are the parts AI cannot do. She likens this moment to when Microsoft Word and PowerPoint first arrived and everyone feared for their jobs, then turned those tools into ways to do better work. She walks through the Wendy's-style real-time marketing example AI can never pull off, how to hold a standard of excellence no matter which tool you use, and what to say when leadership asks whether a $200-a-month subscription can replace a team. If you are trying to figure out where you fit in an AI marketing world, this conversation will help you breathe and get tactical.About SarahSarah Balli is an external communications specialist who also does content creation and influencer marketing on the side.

En este episodio reflexionamos sobre una parte de la paternidad de la que pocas veces se habla: la presión de querer estar presente, proveer, guiar y al mismo tiempo sostener todas las responsabilidades del negocio y la vida. Hablamos de cómo muchos padres viven entre la culpa, el cansancio y la exigencia de "poder con todo", sin detenerse a reconocer lo que también necesitan como personas. Una reflexión para mirar la paternidad con más honestidad, entender que estar presente no significa ser perfecto, y recordar que también se puede construir una vida donde la familia, el negocio y el bienestar personal tengan espacio.

So many business owners are pouring their energy into creating more content, improving their visibility, tweaking their messaging, and chasing reach. Meanwhile, they've got discovery calls they never followed up on, warm leads sitting in their inbox, referral partners they haven't spoken to in months, and past clients who would happily buy again if they were simply invited. This episode is about shifting your focus from constantly attracting new people to making better use of the opportunities already sitting in front of you. I walk you through what sales maxxing actually means in practice. No sleazy tactics. No awkward scripts. No pressure. Just becoming more proactive about conversations, relationships, follow-up, objections, referrals, and helping people move from interest to commitment. Because sales isn't about convincing people to buy. It's about making it easier for the right people to say yes. You'll also leave with a simple challenge designed to help you uncover sales opportunities you may have been overlooking. If you've been feeling frustrated that your visibility efforts aren't translating into enquiries or revenue, this episode might just help you spot where the real opportunities for growth are hiding. What You'll Learn in This Episode What “sales maxxing” means Why more content isn't always the answer to revenue growth The difference between marketing activity and sales activity Signs you may be overlooking warm opportunities Where to find hidden sales opportunities in your business A simple exercise to help you generate more conversations and enquiries "Sales maxing is simply looking for every possible opportunity to make it easier for people to buy from you." If this episode has made you realise you've been marketing maxxing instead of sales maxxing, I've got something exciting for you.

Send us a note about this episode. We'll reply and thank you on a future episodeEvery communications campaign you have ever built had a choice architecture inside it. The order you sequenced your calls to action. The option you listed first in a petition. The default you set in an employee survey. The way you structured a crisis response. You made all of those decisions. Some of them deliberately. Most of them by instinct, habit, or convention. And the difference between those two things, between deliberate design and accidental design, is the difference between a campaign that moves people and one that wonders why nobody moved. This episode was recorded live on stage at the IABC World Conference in Toronto on June 14th, 2026, in front of an audience of communications professionals from around the world. Listen For4:20 What Choice Architecture Means5:52 The Default Effect6:50 Printer Defaults Example8:15 Removing Friction from Sign-Ups9:31 The EAST Framework Guest: Ann-Marie BlakeWebsite | True Website | LinkedInDougSubstack | Website | LinkedIn Are you a brand with a podcast that needs support?

This is an AI-generated episode of The Storage Marketplace Podcast, created from the first-ever Storage Meetup Show & Tell: AI & Automations, recorded live on June 5, 2026. Unlike a traditional webinar full of slides and talking heads, this event featured live demonstrations of AI tools, automations, and workflows that self-storage operators, managers, and vendors are using right now. In this episode, we explore: • AI-powered customer service and communication tools • Marketing automations designed to generate more leads and rentals • Operational workflows that reduce manual work and increase efficiency • Revenue management and optimization opportunities powered by AI • Real-world examples of automation being implemented inside self-storage businesses today • The biggest themes and takeaways from the industry's first AI-focused Show & Tell event The biggest takeaway:

Nearly every marketing leader has been told to "do more with AI" — and many of them are now sitting on a pile of pilots, a growing bill, and not much to show their CFO. So why is it that adoption of AI in marketing is so high, while the number of organizations actually getting predictable returns from it is so low?Agility requires the discipline to reimagine how work gets done before automating it — because pointing AI at a broken process just produces a faster broken process.Today, we're going to talk about:- Why so many enterprise AI initiatives stall between ambition and production, and what separates the organizations that succeed from the ones that quietly cancel their projects- How marketing and CX teams can move from disconnected experiments to a governed, agent-powered operating model that turns a brief into live 1:1 engagement- How to make the economics of AI predictable — so the people approving these investments can actually forecast both outcomes and costTo help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Don Schuerman, CTO & Head of Marketing at Pega.
