This episode of the Profit Cash Growth Podcast helps business owners identify the single metric or small set of metrics that will most improve profitability. We take you through a practical KPI workshop: identify your biggest monthly cost, link that cost to turnover with a clear ratio or metric, and segment your business into no more than five categories. Track the chosen KPI for each segment, analyse the top and bottom performers using repeated "why" questions to find root causes, then clone successes and fix or remove failures.

Joining BJ on the show today to discuss the finance side of real estate is Ward Fitzgerald. He is the former CEO and Senior Managing Principal of Exeter Property Group, which was acquired by EQT in 2021. Ward is now the current CEO of ExCorde Capital, a real estate investment platform that delivers unprecedented value creation with a strong focus on sharing love. Ward holds an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School and a B.A. in Business Administration from the University of Notre Dame. Join the conversation as they delve into Ward's journey that led him to real estate, hear as he unpacks the greatest gift he's ever been given in the business of real estate, and how bringing old-world organizational culture has added to the innovation of the model. He also shares his leadership secret sauce, how he integrates his faith into his business life, and highlights the focus of ExCorde Capital.For all this, and more, be sure not to miss another insightful conversation on Leadership Blueprints, the podcast!Key Points From This Episode:How Ward landed in the real estate industry (and the Wildwood boardwalk story).Ward highlights his education and career path that led him to real estate. He unpacks the greatest gift he was ever given in the business of real estate. Ward shares innovation inside the model: old-world organizational structure.Ward shares his leadership secret sauce to attack the market aggressively.He details what ExCorde focused on: sharing love.Quotes:“I think that one of the things that led to our ability to grow consistently was the ability to focus on what was important and not get caught up in things like politics, [and] things like closed-door meetings.” — Ward Fitzgerald“A lot of the things they taught at Harvard Business School about running an organization, I didn't do. And people would be horrified to know some of this!” — Ward Fitzgerald“Father Johnson said — ‘Faith is not one of the pillars of your life. It's not one of the silos of your life.

When was the last time you questioned whether you're tracking the right metrics for your Amazon business? In this eye-opening episode, we tackle what might be the most dangerous number in your Amazon dashboard: ACOS (Advertising Cost of Sale).Unlike other platforms where return on ad spend makes perfect sense, Amazon creates a unique ecosystem where your advertising directly impacts your organic ranking. This "rocket fuel" effect means your ads aren't just generating direct sales—they're influencing your entire marketplace performance. Yet ACOS completely ignores this crucial relationship.We dive deep into why focusing solely on ACOS leads to misguided decisions, including how agencies often manipulate this metric by concentrating on branded search terms that artificially inflate performance. You'll learn why proper campaign segmentation matters and how to spot when your numbers look good but your business is suffering.The real game-changer? Understanding that different products in your lineup serve different purposes. Your "tripwire" products designed to acquire customers shouldn't be held to the same standards as your high-margin complementary items. We explore how contribution margin, lifetime value, and your business lifecycle stage should all factor into which metrics actually matter for your unique situation.Whether you're struggling with plateaued growth or simply want to ensure you're measuring what truly counts, this episode provides actionable insights to help you look beyond ACOS and focus on the numbers that actually put money in your pocket. Ready to transform how you evaluate your Amazon advertising performance? This is your roadmap to better metrics and sustainable growth.

Positive Business Outlook or Work-Life Balance - which is more important? The "Grindscore" metric combines the two to determine the attractiveness of a company for employees. Dave "CAC" Kellogg and Ray "Growth" Rike discuss the metric from many different angles including:The origin of the Grindscore metricPositive Business Outlook (PBO) + Work-Life Balance (WLB)Sample of Private and Public Company GrindscoresWhy a high PBO and high WLB scores the same as a low PBO and an average WLB (flaws of the metric)This episode covers a metric that most software companies are not using - and the conversation may put a light on some of the reasons why?!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Episode 181 is another installation of our Page to Screen series, this time with Scott Pilgrim! We read the comic series by Bryan Lee O'Malley and watched the film adaptation. It might be the most Toronto thing we've ever read or watched!Show NotesThe Scott Pilgrim comic series was released in six digest-size volumes between 2004-2010, and was originally published in black and white. Hardcover colour versions were released between 2012-2015.Edgar Wright directed the film, with Bryan Lee O'Malley as executive producer, and he nails the stylized look so that the film feels like a comic book come to life.Both the book and the film feature some iconic Toronto locations, including Casa Loma, Sneaky Dee's, the Toronto Reference Library, and Honest Ed's (RIP).This cast is stacked! In 2020, for the 10-year anniversary of the film, most of the cast reunited for a table read of the script. You can watch it on YouTubeShout out to Canadian bands Broken Social Scene and Metric for writing songs for the fictional bands in the film (Crash and the Boys and The Clash at Demonhead respectively), and to Chris Murphy of Sloan for being the musical performance supervisor on the film. Beck wrote the songs for Scott's band, Sex Bob-omb.We truly had a blast reading and watching this. It was just so much fun! We're definitely going to watch the anime series, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off.  We're officially kicking off spooky season with our next episode on October 1. We'll be talking about Auralee Wallace's recent relsease, The Late-Night Witches. Apparently, we're also keeping the CanCon going because it takes place in PEI!There's going to be three episodes in October, so stick around for our 7th anniversary episode in the middle of the month on the 15th, and then we're wrapping up Halloween season with Mariana Enriquez's new release, Somebody is Walking on Your Grave.Other Books and Media MentionedBy Bryan Lee O'Malley: Lost at Sea, Seconds, SnotgirlDirected by Edgar Wright: Hot Fuzz, Last Night in Soho, Baby Driver

Oracle's stock recently jumped 37% — and the driver wasn't just revenue growth or earnings per share. The market reacted to one SaaS metric: RPO (Remaining Performance Obligations), which surged 359% year-over-year. In episode #312, Ben Murray explains the RPO metric, how it's calculated, and why investors are paying close attention to it. From Oracle's $455B backlog to Snowflake's disclosure practices, you'll learn why this metric is becoming more important for both public and private SaaS companies. If you want to improve your investor metrics and maximize your company valuation, RPO should be on your radar. What You'll Learn What RPO is (Remaining Performance Obligations) and how it's calculated. Why RPO is a leading indicator of future revenue and business model stickiness. How Oracle's massive RPO growth drove its stock surge. How public companies like Snowflake define and disclose RPO. Why private SaaS companies should start tracking RPO alongside ARR, MRR, and retention. How RPO supports investor confidence in fundraising and exit conversations. Why It Matters for SaaS Operators & Investors Investor metrics such as RPO create visibility into future revenue streams. RPO growth signals stronger customer commitment and drives higher valuations. Private SaaS companies can use RPO as a complement to retention metrics when preparing for fundraising. Resources Mentioned

This special link also gets you a FREE custom nutrition plan:bit.ly/wwpu-free-plan--Is your strength training actually building muscle?Scale weight fluctuates, body fat measurements are inconsistent, and progress photos depend on lighting and angles.There's one metric that cuts through all this noise:Fat-Free Mass Index (FFMI)It shows your actual muscle development regardless of whether you're carrying extra fat or feeling bloated, and once you understand yours, it changes everything about setting goals and how to focus your training.Most lifters have never heard of FFMI. Unlike body weight or even body fat percentage, FFMI isolates your actual muscular development from everything else, giving you clarity about your progress that no other measurement can.Main Takeaways:FFMI measures your muscularity independent of body fat percentageTwo people with the same training experience can have vastly different FFMI numbers, requiring completely different approachesBuilding muscle takes years, while losing fat takes months, so you need a more precise way to track thisYour FFMI determines whether you should prioritize muscle building or fat loss (vs. your feelings or the mirror)Episode Resources:Chef's Foundry non-toxic ceramic cookware (50% off): witsandweights.com/chefsfoundryBody Recomp Workshop replay and bonuses at live.witsandweights.com (includes free custom nutrition plan)Timestamps:0:00 - What is FFMI and why it's a game changer 5:06 - 2 scenarios that reveal everything about your training focus 8:16 - FFMI values explained (what your number actually means) 11:15 - How FFMI determines whether you should cut vs. bulk 17:12 - Natural vs. enhanced FFMI limit 19:45 - Why low FFMI means muscle building is your priority 22:14 - How the fitness industry gets muscle vs. fat loss backward 25:29 - Tracking FFMI over time to validate objective progress 27:03 - Muscle development vs. body compositionSupport the show

Matt Sciannella hosts Dale Harrison in a three part summer event series to cover the intricacies of Brand and Performance marketing. This is the first part of the final event: covering where Marketing ROI fails, and digging into the problems with measuring Revenue. Dale and Matt get into the conventional approaches to calculating marketing ROI, highlighting their limitations and presenting a more comprehensive framework. The discussion sets the stage for a robust understanding of marketing's true impact on a business's financial health.Throughout the episode, Matt and Dale critique traditional metrics used by major platforms like Facebook, HubSpot, and Salesforce, arguing that these models fail to capture the real contributions of marketing efforts. They stress the importance of focusing on gross margins rather than revenue, and present a compelling argument for using contribution margin as a more accurate representation of marketing's ROI. The conversation also touches on the historical neglect of brand marketing in favor of performance marketing, particularly in the B2B sector, and the repercussions that this shift has had on long-term business value.Episode topics: #marketing, #demandgeneration, #brand, #B2BSaaS, #digitalmarketing #ROI #return #investment______Subscribe to Stacking Growth on Spotify and YouTubeLearn More About Refine LabsSign Up For Our NewsletterConnect with the hosts:Matt SciannellaDale Harrison

In this episode of Leading Human, host Chad interviews Radhika Dutt, author of 'Radical Product Thinking' and the forthcoming book 'Escaping the Performance Trap.' Dutt challenges the conventional wisdom of goal-setting in performance management, arguing that tools like OKRs and KPIs often backfire. Instead, she introduces an alternative framework focused on detailed vision statements, puzzle setting, and puzzle solving, which encourages continuous learning and adaptation. The conversation explores the history of goal-setting, its limitations in complex environments, and practical steps for implementing Dutt's approach. Author of Radical Product Thinking, a speaker and entrepreneur, Radhika Dutt has participated in 5 acquisitions, 2 of which were companies she founded. She's an advisor on Product Thinking to the Monetary Authority of Singapore. She's also an MIT grad with SB and M.Eng in EECS, and speaks nine languages.01:12 Challenging Traditional Management03:38 The History and Problems with Goal Setting07:25 Alternative Approaches to Alignment14:56 Implementing Puzzle Setting and Solving20:30 Overcoming Resistance to Change26:23 Lightning Round and ConclusionRadhika's LinkedIn profileRadhika's WebsiteRadical Product Thinking (website for the methodology and Radhika's first book)Speaker reelLinks to the OHL framework/ toolkitWant a communication and wellbeing workshop that actually sticks?

What if I told you there was one metric that could truly move your business forward—and most business owners aren't even paying attention to it? That's what we're diving into in this episode of More than a Few Words. I had a conversation with jake Tlapek, aka the Wizard of Marketing, who's spent the last decade helping struggling brands become high-growth success stories using battle-tested SEO and creative problem-solving. Episode Recap: When most people think of marketing metrics, they zero in on traffic, leads, or social likes. But Jake makes the case for a bigger-picture indicator: Share of Brand Voice—a measure of how often your brand shows up compared to competitors. It's not a tidy little number you can find in a single report. Measuring it requires stitching together insights from a variety of sources. It's not a tidy little number you can find in a single report. Measuring it requires stitching together insights from a variety of sources. But if you're serious about building a visible, respected brand, this metric can't be ignored. We talked about why it matters more than ever in the era of AI search, and what you can start doing right now—even if you don't have access to fancy tools or a big team. Key Points: Share of Brand Voice is about visibility in your space: how often your brand is mentioned, cited, or seen versus your competitors. It's not easily measured in one place—you'll need to combine analytics, branded search volume, and SEO tools for a clearer picture. Tools like SparkToro and Search Atlas can help if you're ready to go deeper. Don't overlook your Google Search Console and branded keyword searches—they're a great place to start. AI Search is Changing the Game AI doesn't just answer one query. It generates dozens of variations before delivering results. To show up in AI overviews, your content should answer multiple versions of the same core question. Visibility in AI results depends on pattern recognition—the more your brand appears across the web, the more likely it is to be included in AI-generated answers. Actionable Takeaways for Women Business Owners: Start by tracking branded searches in Google Search Console. If no one is looking for you by name, it's time to build awareness. Answer variations of your most-asked questions across your blog, website, and social platforms. Repetition is your friend. Get featured elsewhere. Guest blogs, podcast interviews, and external mentions help create brand signals AI can detect. Create short-form video content. Every video gets transcribed and indexed—boosting both search and AI visibility. Don't just post—get credited. Whether you're guesting on a podcast or writing for another site, make sure your name and brand are clearly attached. Jake Tlapek Jake, often called the  Wizard of Marketing has spent the last decade turning struggling brands into high-growth businesses using no-fluff strategy, battle-tested SEO, and a heavy dose of creative problem-solving. From WordPress to PPC, content to conversion, he  break down the complex so business owners can actually win online.

You wouldn't run a business without KPIs, so why are you running your body without them?Data is only helpful if it leads to better decisions. In this episode, I walk through the five (5) key metrics I track which range from cardiovascular fitness to micronutrient intake, blood pressure, and sleep quality.

What if everything you thought you knew about heart disease was wrong? In this eye-opening episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi sits down with Dr. Philip Ovadia, a heart surgeon who once followed the standard medical playbook until he realized it wasn't helping his patients or himself.
