Key account management (KAM) isn't merely a sales function—it's a transformative business model that bridges organizations with their most valuable customers. Too often misunderstood or underleveraged, KAM has the potential to drive deep strategic value and foster long-term growth. In this episode of Sales Reinvented, Mark Davies and I unpack the essentials of effective key account management, the common pitfalls organizations face, and the concrete strategies for building world-class account relationships. Mark, chairman of the Association of Key Account Management, visiting fellow at Cranfield, and founder of Value Matters. With deep expertise as both a buyer and seller, including leadership roles at BP and in the pharmaceutical industry, Mark brings a wealth of insight into what sets key account management apart from traditional sales approaches.    Outline of This Episode [00:00] Who are key account customers? [03:55] Challenges in key account management [07:26] Understanding the customer's big picture [10:25] Talking to customers at different levels [16:14] Building a customer-focused strategy plan [22:18] Unlocking growth through collaboration Avoiding Common Mistakes in Key Account Management One of the biggest traps companies fall into is believing that training alone can transform their KAM results. Mark cautions that KAM is more than just the key account manager, it's a company-wide mindset and approach, not a solo endeavor. A critical organizational misstep is continuing to reward key account managers on short-term sales targets while expecting them to deliver multi-year account growth. Metric systems must evolve to reflect longer-term, value-driven objectives, not just monthly or quarterly transaction goals.   What Makes an Effective Key Account Plan? A living KAM plan is not just a glorified document; it's a dynamic framework for strategy, internal alignment, and customer engagement. Mark recommends structuring plans around five pillars: capturing value insights, developing tailored value propositions, defining account strategies, securing internal buy-in (the "internal pitch"), and ensuring robust value delivery backed by measurable outcomes. Regular leadership reviews and organizational engagement are essential to keep the plan actionable and relevant—a "set it and forget it" approach simply won't work.   Top Do's and Don'ts for Key Account Management Key account management is ultimately about building trust, understanding, and value for both parties. With strategic leadership, disciplined processes, and a focus on genuine customer partnership, KAM can elevate selling from transactional to transformational. Here are Mark's dos: Do treat KAM as a distinct business model and change process Do start with a focused set of accounts Do engage the broader organization And here are his don'ts: Don't measure KAMs solely on short-term sales Don't overload them with too many accounts Don't neglect the fundamentals of value-based selling   Mark shares a powerful example of when key account management works from a business that, after implementing collaborative KAM strategies across its merged business units, unlocked organic growth so significant that they struggled to meet the surge in demand. Mark's story illustrates how the right KAM process can transform relationships and drive sustainable business results.   Connect with Mark Davies Mark Davies on LinkedIn     Connect With Paul Watts  LinkedIn Twitter    Subscribe to SALES REINVENTED Audio Production and Show Notes by PODCAST FAST TRACK https://www.podcastfasttrack.com

We've all heard the classic business cliché: "You have to spend money to make money." But honestly? I've never really loved that phrase. It leaves out the most crucial part of the equation. What if we rephrased it to: You have to spend money to make money, but you also need to know if the money you're spending is actually working. In this episode, I'm challenging product-based business owners to stop looking at Return on Investment (ROI) purely through the lens of digital ad spend. The truth is, every single dollar that leaves your business is an investment, and every investment deserves a return. From hiring team members to investing in photography, copywriters, and coaching programs, I break down how you might be flying blind with your capital and how to start tracking profit metrics instead of vanity metrics. I also share a simple, three-question audit you can start using today to ensure every dollar has a job and is doing it well. Key Takeaways The ROI Reframe: ROI isn't just a marketing metric. If cash is flowing out of your business in a dozen different directions, you need to measure what is coming back in return for every single one of those streams. The Danger of Raw Ad Metrics: Generating $3,000 in sales from a $1,000 ad spend sounds great on paper (a 3x ROAS). But when you factor in a 50% cost of goods ($1,500), agency fees, fulfillment labor, and shipping, you might actually be paying to run yourself out of business. Measuring the Unmeasurable (Employees): Hiring feels like growth, but without tracking output, it's just added overhead. Employees don't always generate direct revenue, but they must generate a measurable return—whether that's freeing up your time to bring in new accounts or increasing production speed. Learning vs. Implementation: Buying a coaching program, course, or mastermind and only implementing 20% of it means you are losing money. Learning is not a return on investment; implementation is the return. The Secret of Profitable Businesses: The most profitable product-based businesses aren't necessarily the ones with the highest revenue. They are the ones with the fewest dollars going out the door that don't serve a clear purpose. The 3-Question ROI Audit To keep yourself from flying blind, I want you to perform this quick audit this month on any expense—whether it's a software subscription, a new piece of equipment, an employee, or a mastermind: What did it cost me? (Be sure to include your time, not just your money). What specific outcome was I expecting from it? (Name a tangible, concrete result). Did I get that outcome? (Yes, partially, or not at all). My Advice: Once you have your answers, act on them immediately. Double down on what's working, fix or re-engineer what is underperforming, and ruthlessly cut what isn't producing.

Something interesting is happening inside organizations right now.New tools, like AI, are being introduced.New tool adoption is being encouraged.And in some cases… it's being measured.That sounds normal.But there's a pattern here.A familiar one.The kind that starts with good intentions… and slowly shifts into something else.You've probably seen it before. In different forms. In different environments. With different outcomes.And if you work in internal audit… you're usually one of the first to see where that shift actually leads.In this episode, we explore what happens when measurement becomes more than observation… and starts shaping behavior. Not just at the organizational level… but inside the very systems auditors are expected to evaluate.Because sometimes the risk isn't the process itself. It's what the process is quietly encouraging.

When your schedule is packed, it's easy to assume your practice is healthy—but “busy” can hide low productivity and weak profitability. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt brings in ACT Dental coach Robyn Theisen to explain why volume masks inefficiency longer than any other metric, how “busy” becomes a false proxy for performance, and what to measure instead. You'll learn how to compare number of visits with production per visit and production per hour, what inefficient schedules look like, and how to build a strategic schedule that slows down on purpose while producing more. Listen to Episode 1045 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:A full schedule can look healthy while profitability is not there because volume can hide inefficiency.“Busy” is a false proxy and has zero value unless you connect it to productivity and profitability.Compare number of visits with production per visit (PPV) and production per hour (PPH) to see whether you're churning through patients or producing efficiently.Low PPV and low PPH often show up as lots of short, low-value appointments and reactive treatment planning that keeps the day running long.Inefficient volume creates physical fatigue and mental fatigue when the activity doesn't match what ends up in the bank account.A practice that gets it right builds a strategic schedule with the right mix of procedures, not just filled spots, and matches time to clinical complexity and value.Start by planning the year (days worked, vacations, holidays, CE, meetings), set an annual production goal, and break it down into a daily target to build the schedule around.Snippets:00:00 Why a busy schedule doesn't automatically mean a profitable schedule.03:10 Why “busy” is a false proxy and what “time is the new rich” looks like.04:05 The homework metric: calculate PPV, PPH, and compare them to number of visits.06:00 What inefficient volume looks like in the schedule and treatment planning.08:05 What it looks like when a practice gets it right with a strategic schedule.11:05 The first step: plan your year, set annual goals, and convert them into a daily production target.12:00 Why write-offs matter and how inaccurate assumptions can hide the real numbers.Guest Bio/Guest Resources:Robyn Theisen brings an entire life and legacy of dental experience to the team and every team with which she works as the daughter and sister of dentists.

Sally Lait joins Robby Russell on Maintainable to explore software maintainability through a different lens… not just code quality, but how teams work together over time. Sally is a fractional technology leader and advisor with more than two decades in the industry. You can follow her on LinkedIn or Mastodon. They start with a familiar question: what makes software well maintained? Structure and standards matter, but Sally shifts the focus to signals around the edges… documentation, onboarding speed, knowledge sharing, and especially how confident people feel making changes. That confidence becomes the thread throughout the conversation. Teams with high confidence move faster and adapt more easily. Teams with low confidence hesitate, avoid parts of the system, and struggle to make progress… regardless of what the code looks like. Robby and Sally also dig into why maintenance work often struggles to get traction. It rarely speaks for itself. Leaders need to connect it to outcomes the business already cares about… risk, hiring, delivery speed, and long-term sustainability. Sally references a LeadDev panel she moderated on why maintenance still feels “stuck in 2015”: Why Software Maintenance Is Stuck in 2015. They also discuss modernizing legacy systems and moving away from long-standing in-house software… work that is rarely just technical. It requires trust, clear communication, and navigating the emotional attachment teams have to what they've built. The episode closes with advice for engineers joining older codebases: stay curious, build relationships early, and use onboarding gaps as opportunities to improve things for the next person. Episode Highlights [00:01:02] What Makes Software Maintainable: Technical quality matters, but cultural signals often tell the deeper story. [00:05:45] Why Progress Still Feels Slow: Even with improvements, teams can feel stuck due to perception gaps. [00:07:30] Communicating Small Wins: Lack of visibility into incremental progress impacts morale and confidence. [00:12:40] Influencing Without Manipulating: Maintenance work needs to be framed in business terms. [00:16:00] Technical Debt as a Hiring Problem: Outdated systems affect recruiting and retention. [00:20:22] Modernizing a Siloed System: Unlocking legacy data required both technical and organizational change. [00:26:55] Building Trust for Change: Surprise proposals fail… alignment takes time. [00:32:39] Letting Go of “Our Baby”: Replacing systems involves emotional and cultural dynamics. [00:46:25] Joining an Older Codebase: Practical advice for onboarding and building confidence quickly.

Letting insurance fee schedules become your “real” fees creates bad data, bad decisions, and an unnecessary production treadmill. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt coaches with Robyn Theisen on why every practice — even PPO-heavy practices — must use a master fee schedule, bill full fees, and track adjustments correctly so you can see the true gap between UCR and contracted rates. You'll learn how insurance-driven fees distort write-offs, inflate gross production, hide profitability, and anchor patients to allowance instead of clinical value — plus what to do today to start fixing it. Listen to Episode 1042 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:If your practice management system uses insurance fee schedules instead of a master fee schedule, your production, adjustments, and write-offs become inaccurate.Without regularly comparing UCR to contracted fees, you can't see the true adjustment gap or make good plan-by-plan decisions.When practices bill contracted fees, gross production may look strong while net production tells a very different story.Insurance-driven fees can force doctors to produce more volume to reach the same results, creating scheduling and profitability challenges.Billing full fees and categorizing adjustments by insurance plan allows you to identify where discounts are coming from and how large they are.Getting granular with adjustment categories can reveal hidden issues, like different doctors operating under different insurance fee schedules.Auditing a small sample of EOBs weekly helps you validate whether adjustments and payments match what you think is happening.Snippets:00:01 What “the hidden cost of letting insurance set your fees” actually means.03:00 What it looks like when practices get this wrong: distorted adjustments, write-offs, and inflated gross production.05:40 Why not using a master fee schedule creates “fake news” everywhere in the practice.06:30 What it looks like when practices get it right: billing full fees and tracking adjustments by plan.08:50 How granular write-off categories reveal deeper problems — including huge write-offs and mismatched fee schedules.11:10 What you can do today: check how adjustments are entered and get more specific by insurance company.12:20 Why anchoring patients to allowances instead of clinical value hurts your practice long-term.Guest Bio/Guest Resources:Robyn Theisen brings an entire life and legacy of dental experience to the team and every team with which she works as the daughter and sister of dentists.

Capital spending usually signals how a company is positioning itself for the future. Our Global Head of Fixed Income Research Andrew Sheets explains why this metric is getting more attention from investors.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Andrew Sheets: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Global Head of Fixed Income Research at Morgan Stanley. Today: Why capital expenditure is rapidly becoming one of the most important numbers in earning season across asset classes.It's Thursday, April 30th at 2pm in London. This is a high-risk episode in the sense that it may already be obsolete by the time that you hear it. But then again, maybe that's fitting for a discussion of record capital spending on cutting edge technology.We are in the middle of the busiest part of earning season, and yesterday four of the largest companies in the world reported numbers. These companies – Alphabet, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta – have a combined market cap of nearly $12 trillion. Yet, while the focus of earning season is traditionally about earnings, another line item is rapidly rising in importance. Capital spending on AI infrastructure – the chips, power cooling, and connections that are required to build and run AI models is soaring. And the companies that reported yesterday are at the leading edge of this trend. The first thing about all this spending is simply the scale. For this year alone, Morgan Stanley estimates that it will amount to over $600 billion across the largest U.S. hyperscalers. To put that in perspective, that means just a handful of U.S. tech companies are now set to spend almost as much on capital and equipment this year as every non-technology company in the S&P 500 did in 2025. And as big as that spending is, it's been accelerating. That over 600 billion spending number that we forecast for 2026? Well, a year ago we thought it would be roughly half that, and that estimate was well above consensus at the time. U.S. companies have repeatedly guided their spending higher as they seek to capture the AI opportunity. And we think that continues. By 2028, my Morgan Stanley colleagues estimate that this U.S. hyperscaler capital spending could hit an annual rate of $1 trillion. In other words, as big as these numbers may seem, much of the spending story still lies ahead. All of that investment, both recently and in the future, has big implications. First, one company's spending is another company's revenue, and many of the stock markets recent winners have been directly tied to this historic buildout. As of this recording, U.S. semiconductor stocks have risen over 30 percent this month alone. Second, while these large U.S. tech companies have enormous financial resources, this spending is at a scale that still requires significant borrowing. Our credit strategy teams expect record bond issuance this year, with U.S. tech borrowing a big part of that. And so far, it's playing out. The first quarter was the busiest quarter for U.S. investment grade bond issuance on record. Which brings us back to these recent earnings – and a dilemma that seems negatively skewed for credit relative to equities. If these companies continue to sound confident about their capital spending plans or even raise expectations further, that could support AI suppliers and the broader equity market. But it would mean even more borrowing needs to be absorbed by the corporate bond market, a credit negative. The results we got yesterday certainly hint at a continuation of this trend. On the other hand, if capital spending is guided down, that could undermine a key pillar of recent market strength and broader risk appetite, which could drag credit wider by association. In the near term, the risk reward seems better in other parts of fixed income, such as mortgage-backed securities. The implications of yesterday's results may also extend to the Federal Reserve. As we discussed last week, Kevin Warsh, nominee to be the next Fed Chair, believes that large levels of investment can boost productivity, lowering inflation, and thus justifying lower interest rates. And so, what these large spenders do, how confident they feel about the future, and what all of this spending can ultimately deliver – well, the implications of that may extend even into the monetary policy story.

From a man named Porky Bicker stockpiling 70 tires for three years to fake a volcanic eruption in Alaska, to a pair of pranksters who stomped around Clearwater, Florida in giant lead penguin feet for a decade, to Saskatoon radio hosts who convinced an entire province (and a sitting member of Parliament) that Canada was switching to "metric time" — this is a masterclass in long-form mischief. The hosts close with a naturally occurring iceberg off the coast of Dildo, Newfoundland that defies all earthly explanation, before pivoting — somehow — to a serious reflection on Easter weekend, public accountability, and the fragility of moral character under the spotlight. Hosts Dr. Tim Hindmarsh & Dr. May Hindmarsh – Husband-and-wife physician duo, hosts of DocTales with Cocktails, broadcasting from their newly Florida-tized studio. What We Covered The DocTales episode 13 lunar prank — how the hosts convinced longtime friends they'd been chosen for a NASA mission, complete with the now-infamous "Personal, Reproductive and Intimacy Capsule" (PRIC) — and why people were still asking about the moon launch a year later Why the Artemis launch on April 1st may itself be the greatest prank of the modern era Porky Bicker, Sitka, Alaska, 1974 — the three-year tire-hoarding operation that faked an eruption of Mount Edgecumbe and won the Ingenuity & Patience Award Clearwater, Florida, 1948–1958 — the giant penguin feet hoax, a 10-year prank involving lead footprints, a fooled cryptozoologist, and a confession that didn't come until 1988 Saskatoon, 1975 — the Wally and Den Show's "metric time" prank: 10-hour days, 100-second hours, the fictional Dutch physicist Larmen Kohler, panicked watch owners, and a member of Parliament who stood up and confronted Pierre Trudeau on the floor of the House of Commons A long detour into UFOs, alien donations vs. crashes, the Trinity Site theory, and whether the real cover-up is alien tech or human tech we never released Kate McKinnon's SNL alien abduction sketch (a public service mention) Dildo, Newfoundland and the Phallic Iceberg — Ken Perry's drone footage of a 30-foot anatomically suggestive iceberg, and yes, the town really is called Dildo The "thread of truth" theory of pranks — and why the same principle explains how psyops, social media campaigns, and accusation-without-evidence work A serious turn: Erika Kirk, public grief, and how visibility creates targets even when the criticism is despicable The Billy Graham coalition meeting of the late 1940s — pastors sitting down to identify their failure modes (money, marriages, message drift) and building guardrails that held for 70+ years Spiritual humility, brokenness, and why "I come as I am" matters — especially during Easter weekend Memorable Moments Tim's instant categorization: Porky Bicker wins Ingenuity & Patience, the Clearwater penguin guys win Longevity, and the Saskatoon radio guys win Cultural Damage May trying to imagine how anyone in 1974 stored 70 tires (answer: "It's Alaska, it's probably in his front yard") The metric time bit — a real MP standing up in Parliament and pointing at Pierre Trudeau: "Mr. Trudeau, you've gone too far. We're not doing metric time." "In Dildo, there's no D batteries available. Those would be triple As." Tim's running thesis that the Roswell crashes weren't crashes at all — they were donations The market moving a trillion dollars on a single Trump statement: "I had a big turd this morning and Trump's colon's feeling much better — market's up like 3%" May's reaction to the seamless segue from giant ice schlong to scripture: "We are geniuses.

Are you producing at a high level but still feeling tight on cash? In this episode, Kirk Behrendt brings back Carlie Einarson, ACT Dental coach, to explain why strong production doesn't automatically mean strong cash flow. You'll learn the two metrics that reveal what's really happening—collections percentage and AR days—plus the practical steps to tighten your financial systems so the money you've earned actually makes it to the bank. Listen to Episode 1039 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Strong production does not guarantee strong cash flow because production does not automatically convert to money in the bank.Collections percentage and AR days are two key metrics that reveal why a practice can feel tight on cash even when schedules are full.If you are not collecting 100% of net production, profitability is being impacted and the practice is leaving money on the table.Over-the-counter collections must be consistent, with confident same-day payment conversations at time of service.AR days reflect how long it takes to collect what you're owed, and the goal is roughly 30 days or less.A clear financial policy and an AR management system reduce delays from patient balances and insurance claims.Improving collections systems can create a cascading effect, including healthier financial behavior, better compliance, and more consistent processes.Snippets:00:00 Producing a lot but still tight on cash—why this happens.02:20 The two metrics that reveal the story: collections percentage and AR days.04:40 What “getting it wrong” looks like when cash doesn't match production.05:35 Why AR days creep up and how delays compound.07:40 What “getting it right” looks like inside a healthy practice.08:35 Why 95% collections is not acceptable in dental practice management.11:05 Targeting 30 AR days and tightening follow-up systems.12:00 Moving to deposits and collecting in a more consistent process.13:10 Action plan: financial policy alignment and AR management systems.15:00 Where to find BPA resources for financial policies and AR systems.Guest Bio/Guest Resources:Carlie Einarson is a lead practice coach who has a passion for helping others succeed in the dental field.

Der perfekte Song ist genau 3 Minuten und 33 Sekunden lang – das zumindest behauptet Metric-Sängerin Emily Haines. Und sie muss es wissen: Schliesslich hat die Frontfrau der kanadischen Indie-Veteranen schon einige geschrieben. Das neue Album ihrer Band ist bereits das zehnte in ihrer Karriere. Und es ist eine Art musikalische Rückbesinnung für die Band aus Toronto geworden. Nach den beiden eher experimentellen Alben «Formentera» (2022) und «Formentera II» (2023) verliebte sich die Band auf der begleitenden Jubiläumstour erneut in ihr viertes Album «Fantasies» – und drehte jetzt für die neue Platte das Rad der Zeit zurück: gleicher Produzent, gleiches Studio wie damals 2009. Gelingt der Blick zurück? «Romanticize the Dive» ist das neue Sounds! Album der Woche: Jeden Abend gibt's Vinyl und CDs zu gewinnen – nur live in der Sendung.

When patients don't say yes to treatment, it's easy to assume the problem is fees, timing, or motivation—but the first place to look is your data. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt sits down with ACT coach Carlie Einarson to break down two key performance indicators that reveal where case acceptance is actually breaking down: diagnostic percentage and case acceptance percentage. You'll learn how to define and track these metrics, what “low” numbers typically indicate inside your systems, and the first practical steps to improve diagnosis, presentation, and scheduling outcomes. Listen to Episode 1036 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Key performance indicators are “indicators” because they point to which systems are working and which are not.Diagnostic percentage measures what percentage of patients are diagnosed with new treatment.Case acceptance percentage measures what percentage of patients with treatment presented schedule something before leaving that day.A low diagnostic percentage can indicate missed or inconsistent diagnosis, unclear philosophy, or “watching” treatment instead of recommending it.A low case acceptance percentage often reflects rushed conversations and unclear explanations rather than patients simply refusing because of cost or time.Improving both metrics starts with writing down and aligning the practice's standard of care and treatment philosophy across the entire team.Pulling two to four weeks of diagnostic and case acceptance data helps identify whether the breakdown is happening in diagnosis or in communication and scheduling.Snippets:00:00 What to look at first when patients aren't saying yes.02:06 Why KPIs are called “indicators” and what they reveal.03:06 Diagnostic percentage defined with a simple example.03:42 Case acceptance percentage defined as scheduling before leaving.04:10 What low diagnostic and case acceptance numbers usually mean.06:07 What it looks like when diagnosis and case acceptance are strong.07:25 Why diagnosis is a priority and why “winging it” fails.09:18 The first steps: write down your standard of care and pull recent data.10:12 What to review with your team to strengthen diagnosis systems.11:20 What to fix when diagnosis is strong but case acceptance is low.12:05 Raising the standard of care and bringing the team with you.12:41 The value of periodic comprehensive sit-downs for patients.13:12 Holding doctors accountable with daily tracking.15:18 The two metrics to start with when patients aren't saying yes.Guest Bio/Guest Resources:Carlie Einarson is a lead practice coach who has a passion for helping others succeed in the dental field.

Emily Crutcher, Senior Vice President of JLL's Government and Education Division, and Elsa Wilson, Senior Analyst in Research at JLL, join the show to discuss their analysis of 18 university anchored innovation districts across the United States. They explain how these districts — from Stanford Research Park to Kendall Square — foster innovation through concentrations of research institutions, startups, corporate partners, and venture capital. Office properties in these districts command up to a 36% rent premium and retail rents see a 28% premium compared to national benchmarks. The conversation covers case studies in Cambridge, Pittsburgh, and at Arizona State University, the role of entrepreneurial retail concepts in activating these districts, and why innovation districts are increasingly relevant for investors, occupiers, and public sector leaders.

You can check every box of religious life and still be miles from God. The real spiritual metric is simpler — and much harder. Raghunath and Kaustubha open with a passage from Fyodor Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov — the dying words of the monk Father Zosima: love everything, love everyone, even in their sin, and you will perceive the divine mystery in all things. It's a vision shared across traditions — by Tolstoy, Martin Luther King, Black Elk, and Jesus himself, who loved those who were crucifying him — and it maps precisely onto a verse from the Srimad Bhagavatam, an ancient Sanskrit text on consciousness and devotion, where Krishna describes the saintly person as one who sees no friend, no enemy, and no stranger — only the same sacred spark in everyone. A better metric for loving God is not the intensity of your practice but how you love the people God puts in your life — including the difficult ones. The episode then moves into the opening of the Govardhan Lila, where Krishna poses a quiet but penetrating question: do you actually understand what you're doing — and why? ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

3. Westmoreland's three-phase plan focused on building massive infrastructure and then launching "crushing operations" to force North Vietnamese negotiations. However, the "search and destroy" metric of success—body counts—failed because 90% of operations made no enemy contact. The NVA often disappeared into trackless jungles to live to fight another day. Meanwhile, President Johnson respected Cambodian and Laotian neutrality despite NVA exploitation. He feared that widening the war into these vast sanctuaries would require massive troop increases the U.S. could not sustain, choosing instead to focus combat within South Vietnamese borders. (3)
