In this episode, I sat down with @Sharon Toerek from Innovative Agency to talk about the real shifts happening in agency business development — and the constant evolution that comes with them. We unpacked why 2025 is the year agencies need to get honest about their positioning, how trust — not information — has become the key currency, and why specialization isn't just smart, it's essential for survival.⏱️ Timestamps0:00 – Welcome and introduction: why the agency landscape feels confusing in 2025 2:10 – The “trust recession” and why agencies are more anxious than ever 5:00 – Why information is cheap but credibility is expensive 6:30 – Specialization as a core sales lever (not just a niche tactic) 9:45 – The fear that keeps most agencies from focusing 12:00 – What ruins deals when you're not specialized 13:30 – Why the “show, don't tell” principle beats overblown ROI claims 15:00 – Thought leadership as a frictionless entry point 17:30 – How to build thought leadership around your ICP (not your ego) 19:00 – Should the founder always be the face of the content? 21:30 – Balancing new client acquisition with organic growth 23:00 – Dan's “Trust Matrix” for prioritizing outbound calls 24:30 – Systematizing referrals (without being weird about it) 26:00 – The three “food groups” of agency sales 28:00 – Why most agencies over-engineer outbound and underdeliver 29:30 – What's surprised Dan about agency sales in recent years 31:00 – What smart agency owners are doing differently 32:00 – Where AI helps — and where it's just shiny object syndrome 34:00 – Why more agencies will start to look like consultancies soon 35:00 – Where to go to learn more about Dan's model

Academia do Prazer - Episódio #04 - O cotidiano eróticoO prazer não acontece só na cama. Ele acontece no cotidiano — e é justamente aí que tantas vezes ele se perde. Entre notificações que não param, o barulho da cidade, a mente que não desliga e a rotina que engole o corpo, o erótico se vê sequestrado todos os dias. Mas o prazer também se infiltra nesses mesmos espaços. Ficou curiosa?

Presidential historian and Ronald Reagan Institute Senior Fellow Tevi Troy is in for Jim today. Join Tevi and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down President Trump's plan to end the war in Gaza, Joy Reid actually getting something right, and Chuck Schumer accusing the New York Times of bias.First, they examine Trump's 21-point plan to resolve the Gaza war by removing Hamas and the threat of terrorism, securing the release of Israeli hostages, and launching a strategy to rebuild Gaza. Tevi explains why he supports the proposal and hopes it moves forward. They also analyze America's security commitments to Qatar, why it's happening, and whether it's a good idea.Next, they are stunned as former MSNBC host Joy Reid actually gets something right but in a hilarious way. Reid warns that Republicans want to eliminate income tax, roll back business regulations, and allow families to pass along 100 percent of their inheritance. Well, of course. Tevi reveals why Reid thinks those are dangerous objectives and Greg wonders what other obvious policy positions Joy Reid plans to reveal.Finally, they review the new partial government shutdown and laugh at Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer calling the New York Times biased for publishing a poll showing Americans strongly oppose Democrats forcing a shutdown. They also weigh Schumer's political future and note that any potential New York Democrat successor would likely be even more radical.Please visit our great sponsors:Get 20% off your first purchase of classic menswear.

Neste episódio do Bom Dia, Obvious, quem conversa com Marcela Ceribelli é a criadora de conteúdo e historiadora Robertita. Em um papo sincero e profundo, ela compartilha o que aprendeu ao respeitar seus próprios tempos, as transformações que viveu dentro e fora das redes, e como construiu um espaço de potência — sendo uma mulher negra, fora do padrão, em um território ainda tão excludente como o do mercado de luxo.Robertita fala sobre afeto, planejamento, identidade, pertencimento e dinheiro — sem deixar de lado o peso simbólico e político de cada escolha estética. Com a sabedoria de quem já se desconstruiu algumas vezes para se reconstruir de maneira mais íntegra, ela lembra que estar presente é, também, um ato de resistência.Nos acompanhe também:Instagram da Obvious: https://www.instagram.com/obvious.cc/TikTok da Obvious: https://www.tiktok.com/@obvious.ccChapadinhas de Endorfina: https://www.instagram.com/chapadinhasdeendorfina/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1592iJQt0IlC5u5lKXrbyS?si=0fbc7820427446b2Marcela Ceribelli no Instagram: https://instagram.com/marcelaceribelli/Robertita no Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/larobertita/Livro “Sintomas — e o que mais aprendi quando o amor me decepcionou”, Marcela Ceribelli: https://a.co/d/9GvhMJmLivro "Aurora: O despertar da mulher exausta", Marcela Ceribelli https://a.co/d/2qUiCOw

Academia do Prazer - Episódio #03 - Prazer como poderO prazer feminino nunca foi só íntimo: sempre foi também um campo de poder. Negar o orgasmo das mulheres foi negar sua dignidade. Apenas uma minoria chega ao clímax com penetração, mas ainda assim mulheres foram chamadas de “difíceis” ou “defeituosas”. Este episódio fala do prazer como afirmação de humanidade, mostrando como tabus e mitos se tornaram formas de controle.E este é o terceiro episódio da minissérie em áudio Academia do Prazer⁠, criada pela Obvious⁠ e a fragrância ⁠Her Code Clímax⁠de ⁠O Boticário apresentada por ⁠Marcela Ceribelli.Nos conta o que achou do episódio nos comentários?===============================================Referências e sugestões:Mari Williamshttps://www.instagram.com/mariwilliams/Joana Waldorfhttps://www.instagram.com/joana.waldorf/?hl=enLivro Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic As Power de Audre Lordehttps://www.amazon.com.br/Uses-Erotic-As-Power/dp/1888553103Nos acompanhe também:Instagram da Obvious: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/obvious.cc/⁠TikTok da Obvious: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@obvious.cc⁠Chapadinhas de Endorfina: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/chapadinhasdeendorfina/⁠Marcela Ceribelli no Instagram: ⁠https://instagram.com/marcelaceribelli/⁠Novo Her Code Clímax | Nada pode parar o seu prazer | O Boticáriohttps://www.boticario.com.br/her-code-climax-eau-de-parfum-50ml/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=pago&utm_campaign=her_code&utm_content=obvious&utm_term=influs

Comida é base. E neste episódio, a conversa com a nutricionista Maria Alvim, no NUPENS/USP, e com a pesquisadora de cultura alimentares Patty Durães aprofunda os seguintes temas: o intestino como "segundo cérebro", o efeito dos ultraprocessados na nossa saúde e como é necessário valorizar a "comida de panela". Afinal, alimentação é um dos pilares mais importantes para o nosso bem-estar, ao lado do sono e da atividade física.Esta temporada de Chapadinhas de Endorfina.doc tem patrocínio de Itaú Uniclass, e é sobre se apaixonar pelo o que seu corpo é capaz de fazer, pela endorfina que ele libera e pela liberdade que ele proporciona.

It's another Throwback Thursday, where we dig into the vault and find gold from days gone by. In 2008 to 2014 Rich hosted a webinar series called “Innovation Hour” where he would work on innovation strategies for various kinds of businesses. That's what we're grabbing for today… and honestly, this is pretty freakin' cool. Rich uses an innovation formula he calls “Captain Obvious” to ask this question: What things could we do to make it 100% super obvious that we deliver on the brand promise we're making in our identity?

Remgro CEO Jannie Durand tells BizNews why the group's five-year strategy is finally paying off, with earnings and dividends up more than 30% and a special payout for shareholders. From taking Distell private with Heineken, to navigating Vodacom's massive deal, to sitting on a cash pile while SA Inc struggles, Durand explains how Remgro is positioning for long-term growth - and why property rights and pro-growth policies remain critical for South Africa's future

The only way you go from who you are today to who you want to be is through evidence.Most of us want to skip ahead. We think we can just decide to be someone new, leap across the ravine, and instantly become the person with the outcome we want. But the truth? No one leaps. They build a bridge — one tiny, consistent plank at a time.This episode dives into why identity isn't about “faking it till you make it,” and why it's completely normal — even warranted — to feel like you don't deserve the outcome yet. If you already fully owned the identity, you'd already have the result. Change isn't about forcing belief; it's about taking the steps that slowly prove to yourself who you are becoming.We'll unpack:Why your brain resists change and labels new identities as “lies”How to use James Clear's framework (make habits Obvious, Attractive, Easy, Rewarding) to build consistencyWhy integrity shows up most powerfully in failure, not successWhat radical personal responsibility looks like when the shame hits and you want to hideYour thoughts aren't facts. Feeling like a failure doesn't disqualify you — it's simply part of the process. You don't need to know exactly who you want to be yet; it's enough to know you don't want to stay stuck.Because becoming the person you want to be isn't about leaping. It's about building the bridge.If you're ready to do whatever is required to succeed for your health goals, then book a free consult with our team to talk about making that a reality.https://fitwithplants.com/schedule-your-call-6

Very Obvious Lies Healthcare People Hear by Maine's Coast 93.1

On the Tuesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey and insider Ray Fittipaldo gauge the Steelers' growth through three games. Is coach Mike Tomlin's defense improving, even if it's still giving up too many yards? How encouraged should we be that T.J. Watt and Cam Heyward produced like the stars they're supposed to be in NFL Week 3 against the New England Patriots? Is RB Jaylen Warren's elevated role in the offense a good thing? Do he and fellow RB Kenneth Gainwell have any chance for success behind a struggling offensive line that includes Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu? Have those guys shown progress themselves? And what did we learn about DBs Jaylen Ramsey and Jabrill Peppers in facing Drake Maye and the Patriots? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

Emily Hitchcock joins me to discuss Maria Konnikova's The Confidence Game.

Game development is tough, but shipping games can be tougher. These days, having a polished release with lots of options is bare minimum. If a game has obvious technical hiccups, they can easily hurt player perception, & possibly tank a game launch. Yet, time & time again many developers launch their games that despite being technically *done*, feel rushed & incomplete, sinkings like a brick in the ocean. But do not despair! This talk will give you the details you need to make your game feel as finished as possible.

It's been assumed for a while that the Orioles will be looking for a new manager this offseason, but Tony Mansolino has delivered a winning record in his time at the helm. Is there any chance they could keep him around full-time?

Inventory management is an important part of David's work with bike shops.As we've brought on more dealers to the Digital Advisor Services program, some trends have emerged, offering useful tips for other stores. Obvious, you say? If they are obvious to you, that's great, but they come up often enough that we think they are worth covering.

Academia do Prazer - Episódio #01O prazer feminino é interrompido todos os dias. Pela rotina que engole horas, pela pressa que nunca se dissipa, pelo cansaço que não tem fim. É interrompido também pelos mitos que herdamos e pelas vergonhas que aprendemos a guardar. Por isso, Obvious e a fragrância Her Code Clímax de O Boticário lançaram a Academia do Prazer, uma minissérie em áudio para olhar de frente para as interrupções que nos afastam do prazer. Serão quatro episódios apresentados por Marcela Ceribelli que falam dos mitos que cercam o orgasmo, do desejo sequestrado pela carga mental, do peso invisível que ocupa corpo e mente. Porque o prazer não desapareceu. Ele só foi interrompido. E insiste em voltar, mesmo quando tentam pará-lo. Nos conta o que achou do primeiro episódio nos comentários?===============================================Nos acompanhe também:Instagram da Obvious: https://www.instagram.com/obvious.cc/TikTok da Obvious: https://www.tiktok.com/@obvious.ccChapadinhas de Endorfina: https://www.instagram.com/chapadinhasdeendorfina/Marcela Ceribelli no Instagram: https://instagram.com/marcelaceribelli/Novo Her Code Clímax | Nada pode parar o seu prazer | O Boticáriohttps://www.boticario.com.br/her-code/

In this episode of Tim Stating the Obvious, we dig into “How to Design the Life You Want: A Practical Framework.” Too often we ask ourselves “What do you want to be when you grow up?” when the real question should be, “What do you want to grow into?” Because success isn't about a single job or destination—it's about designing the life you want step by step. Using the Army's Be, Know, Do philosophy as a guide, we'll explore a time-tested tool for designing the life you want to lead. First, clarify who you are becoming—the values and character that define you. Then, identify the knowledge and skills you need, and finally, take decisive action. This is about more than motivation—it's about how to design a system to get your goals accomplished and live the life you want. The bottom line: remember, it's up to you, and only you, to design the life you want. If you don't take ownership, someone else will—and their version may not match designing the life you really want. By the end of this episode, you'll walk away with a clear path to start designing the life you want today.   Connect with Tim: Website: timstatingtheobvious.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/timstatingtheobvious Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHfDcITKUdniO8R3RP0lvdw  Instagram: @TimStating Tiktok: @timstatingtheobvious   00:00 The ‘Be, Know, Do' Framework 02:26 Why ‘Being' is Most Important 07:00 Auditing Your ‘Being' 10:31 Knowing & Doing: Taking Action 13:03 Critique and Implementation 15:22 Final Thoughts and Call to Action

O que é ser rico no Brasil? E mais: o que é parecer rico? Dos bordões eternizados por Caco Antibes em Sai de Baixo às tiradas ácidas de Odete Roitman em Vale Tudo, a cultura da riqueza sempre deixou escapar códigos invisíveis — gestos, expressões e formas de viver que dividem muito mais do que classes sociais: dividem linguagens, estilos de vida e até a maneira de enxergar o mundo.O episódio #311 do Bom Dia, Obvious é com o antropólogo Michel Alcoforado, autor do livro "Coisa de Rico: a vida dos endinheirados brasileiros" (Todavia). Uma investigação profunda sobre os símbolos que determinam quem pode atravessar o tapete vermelho e quem fica na rampa.Referência citada neste episódio:Livro "Uma história da desigualdade", Pedro Ferreira de SouzaNos acompanhe também:Instagram da Obvious: https://www.instagram.com/obvious.cc/TikTok da Obvious: https://www.tiktok.com/@obvious.ccChapadinhas de Endorfina: https://www.instagram.com/chapadinhasdeendorfina/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1592iJQt0IlC5u5lKXrbyS?si=0fbc7820427446b2Marcela Ceribelli no Instagram: https://instagram.com/marcelaceribelli/Michel Alcoforado no Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/michelalcoforado/Livro "Coisa de rico: a vida dos endinheirados brasileiros": https://a.co/d/imX8NWGLivro “Sintomas — e o que mais aprendi quando o amor me decepcionou”, Marcela Ceribelli: https://a.co/d/9GvhMJmLivro "Aurora: O despertar da mulher exausta", Marcela Ceribelli https://a.co/d/2qUiCOw

Let me take some pressure off. Your problem is not discipline. Your problem is not organization. Your problem is not that you have yet to stumble upon the perfect schedule. And your problem is not that the folks at home demand too much of your time. The problem is this: there's not enough time to get everything done that you're convinced—or others have convinced you—needs to get done. That's a quote by Andy Stanley, an author and church leader and perfectly captures the topic of this week's episode.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  It's easy to create a productivity system on paper, working with theories and concepts. The challenging part comes when that system is confronted with real-life events.  The upset customer who demands immediate action, a colleague off work sick and a boss who thinks you can drop everything and work on their latest wheeze.  It's not that these productivity systems don't work, they do, it's that a system is only as good as the person adopting it is willing to slow down and consider how important the demand in front of them really is.  It's also understanding what you have control of and what you don't.  You don't have control over whether your daughter's after-school class is cancelled at short notice or not. You do have control over putting in place a contingency in case it happens.  In the real world, things change fast. An urgent email you received at 9:15 a.m. Is resolved on its own by 9:28 a.m. A meeting you spent all weekend preparing for get's cancelled two hours before it's due to begin. The list is endless.  Yet, having some kind of system still helps you.  And that's what this week's question is about. How to use a productivity system in a fast moving, chaotic world.  And so, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Alan. Alan asks, hi Carl, how would you advise someone that is struggling to set up a system because their work is always changing. My customers expect me to be available all the time and my boss keeps calling meetings without any notice. I never have any time to do my work.  Hi Alan. Thank you for your question.  I think it was Jim Rohn that taught me to understand that there are a lot of things in life that we cannot control. Obvious ones would be the weather, or a train breaking down that prevents you from getting into work on time.  Yet, there are also things like phone calls and urgent messages that can significantly change your plans for the day.  This is what I suppose we call life. Life has a nasty habit of getting in the way of our plans.  However, it's always been like that. Life has always been unpredictable and yet many people have managed to deal with it.  There are a number of things you can do that will help you to stay on track, yet have the space and time to deal with the unexpected when they occur.  The first one is when planning the week, don't focus on tasks, focus on objectives.  What I mean by this is when you focus on scheduling tasks for the week, it's likely 60% or more will not get done. Either you don't have the time or things change and they no longer need to be done.  Too much can change over seven days.  I've seen people carefully schedule out an exercise plan for the week, only to pick up a calf strain on Tuesday that prevents them from doing any more running for the rest of the week.  Yet, had they set the objective to exercise four times that week, the calf strain would be a minor inconvenience and perhaps to fulfil their exercise objective they could go swimming or to the gym and do non-leg exercises instead.  Similarly in the work environment, if you were to plan out a project's tasks for the week, and you keep getting pulled into a last minute “urgent” meetings, the chances are by the end of the week you will have done practically none of the tasks you scheduled for yourself.  If you had instead set the objective of doing some work on the project, you would give yourself more flexibility to choose what to do given the changing circumstances of your week.  This way, although you may have only done three things on the project you still completed your objective. That's a win.  Had you set yourself up to complete ten tasks on the project and only done three, you would consider that a failure and feel planning the week is a waste of time.  It's as if all you are doing in a weekly planning session is scheduling tasks you won't do. Which then makes it feel like a waste of time. But It's not a waste of time if you are setting yourself realistic objectives based on what your calendar says you have time for.  Tasks are assigned at a daily level.  When you assign your tasks at a daily level you can take into account the changing nature of the week.  I've had clients have their complete week destroyed because of a crisis with a client in another country. They go into work with one expectation and by 11:00 am they are driving to the airport to catch a flight to the other side of the world to resolve a crisis.  This is why weekly and daily planning go hand in hand.  Another tip I would recommend is to avoid scheduling anything for the first thirty minutes of your work day.  Use that time to get a heads up on the day.  Go through your messages and emails to see what is happening.  I don't subscribe to the idea that you should not check your email or messages in the morning. That to me is a ridiculous idea. When you stop yourself from processing your messages, you start to worry that there might be something in there that is important.  That worry causes distraction and it becomes difficult to focus on anything else.  The chances that there is a crisis that needs your urgent attention is slim and if there is a crisis that needs your attention better to know about it early so you have time to slow down and consider the best steps to resolve it.  But more importantly, those first thirty minutes gives you a chance to get a feel for the day, confirm your plan and decide when best to do whatever work you had decided to do that day.  To give you an example. I woke early this morning for a meeting at 8:00 am. I did my morning routines, and as I was preparing for the meeting, I got a text message informing me that the meeting had been cancelled.  That gave me back an hour I had not planned for.  So, I looked at my plan for the day and decided that the best use of that hour would be to begin writing this podcast script. Doing that would take the pressure off the rest of the day and give me a chance to bring forward other work.  All this does not mean having a system is pointless. Having a system means you can switch focus quickly and you know where to look to make better decisions on what to work on next.  For example, having a quick and simple way to collect stuff is a no-brainer. A paper notebook open on your desk with a pencil ready to go allows you to quickly jot something down when on a call or in the middle of doing something else.  Making sure that your phone and computers are set up for quick capture is also important. Ideas and requests can happen at any time. Being able to collect those ideas with the minimum of fuss is important. Then, allowing yourself ten to fifteen minutes at the end of the day for processing what you collected so you can delete the unnecessary and ensure that what is left is either scheduled or dealt with.  This is why I urge everyone to take the free COD course. COD stands for Collect, Organise and Do and it's the foundations of every solid productivity system.  I'll put a link in the show notes for you if you haven't taken the course yet.  Another thing you can do, which is linked to the first thirty minutes of your day is to mentally map out when you will do something. This is where you use the power of “implementation Intentions”.  This is where you used an “if this, then that formula”  If it's 2:00 pm then I will spend an hour clearing my actionable email. If it's 5:30 pm, I will stop and plan tomorrow for ten minutes.  I like to use the first thirty minutes of the day to review my calendar and then visualise the different times in the day what I will be doing at that time.  It really helps to get you focused and prevents you from getting involved in things you do not need to be involved in.  Don't be too strict with yourself. If you planned to respond to your actionable emails at 2:00 pm and it's now 2:20 pm, it doesn't matter. Just start going through your actionable emails. Whether you spend an hour or forty minutes on this activity isn't the issue. What matters in you spent some time doing it.  Being consistent and allowing yourself to get back on track is what really matters. When it comes to things like emails and messages and daily admin, it's never going to be about clearing everything in one day. It's always about spending some time doing it daily.  If you're just starting out on an exercise programme, it's not really about the quality of your workout initially, It's about spending time doing exercise. Getting fit and healthy doesn't happen with one workout. It's an accumulation of many workouts done consistently over a period of time that results in your increased physical fitness.  A final point is if you work in a dynamic environment. This is work that involves multiple interruptions each day and rapid changes in focus.  Here we have to be careful. Many people believe their jobs are dynamic, but often the chaos is not the job, but the way they are structuring their day.  I remember once being contacted by someone who worked in customer support. They worked in an office and they were customer facing. There was no place to go and do other work without the risk of someone coming in and interrupting them.  In this instance asking what is their core work gave then the answer they were looking for. They were employed to deal with customer issues, face to face.  The priority here was to be available for customers coming in to their office. If there was a lull, then they could make calls or follow up people they were waiting to hear back from. If there wasn't a lull, then as long as they were in front of the customer, they were doing the job they were employed to do. The solution in this instance was to arrange with their team leader to allow the customer support team to have thirty minutes each day away from talking with customers face to face to deal with any follow up issues.  As it happened in that case the team leaders realised that this was a good idea and allowed all customer support people to have two thirty minutes periods each day. Those times were fixed where possible so the team could better plan their days.  The key here is to protect periods of time in the day for doing the non-dynamic work. You can do this weekly or daily. If you do it daily, the daily planning will become more important as you will be fixing in these protected times when you do your daily planning. And remember, thirty minutes is always going to be better than zero minutes.  I hope that has helped, Alan. Thank you for your question and thank you to you too for listening. It just remains for me now to wish you all a very very productive week.   

Burnout, Normalized Stress, and Reclaiming Balance with Michelle Niemeyer Burnout isn't just a buzzword—it's a growing epidemic in high-pressure careers like law, medicine, and corporate leadership. In this episode of Tim Stating the Obvious, I sit down with attorney Michelle Niemeyer to unpack the reality of burnout and the hidden dangers of “normalized stress.” Michelle shares her powerful story of pushing past her limits as a lawyer, only to face severe health consequences, including an autoimmune condition triggered by chronic stress. We explore why ignoring stress is so dangerous, how integrating your personal and professional life creates healthier relationships, and why leaders must treat employees as whole human beings—not just job titles. Michelle introduces practical tools like identifying your “sparks”—the activities that bring joy and energy—and conducting a “sword analysis” to cut out goals that don't align with your true desires. This conversation goes deeper than quick fixes. We talk about holistic wellness, workplace culture, leadership strategies that build trust and loyalty, and even how lifestyle changes can reverse long-term health conditions. Whether you're a leader trying to reduce turnover, a professional facing burnout, or someone seeking clarity in your next chapter, this episode offers a roadmap to balance, resilience, and purpose.
