Helaine Knapp is Founder & CEO of CITYROW, the fitness phenomenon that focuses on smart fitness for the modern consumer. CITYROW pairs rowing with strength and mobility exercises – creating a workout that works. But a workout only works if you do it, and consumers today need choice, motivation and accountability. CITYROW clients can take classes at any one of our studios nationwide, from the comfort of their own home via on-demand classes, and everything in between. It's top-notch programming combined with giving consumers the ability to participate when, where and how they want – giving CITYROW the ability to reach and impact more consumers. Prior to CITYROW, Knapp, spent a number of years climbing the corporate ladder in media and participated in two SaaS tech exits – Buddy Media (sold to Salesforce.com for $800MM in 2012) and Olapic (which sold to Monotype for $120MM in 2016). During this time, Knapp fell in love with group fitness. But, years of spinning and bootcamp classes left Knapp with lower back pain and minimal results. She set out to find a better and smarter way to maximize results and still enjoy group exercise. Here she uncovered a tried-and-true fitness tool, the rower. Knapp saw the opportunity for a smarter approach to fitness and thus CITYROW was born.   LINKS: https://cityrow.com/en-us/ INSIDETRACKER - Gift cards and clothes are impersonal and expected… so why not get your loved ones a gift that is truly special and unique to them.

The Keys to Intrinsic MotivationHow we can stop waiting for external factors to kick us into high gear and find the power within to push us towards our goals.EPISODE QUOTE:“Those that know this is a calling and believe so deeply in what we're doing, and the communities they are building, and the people that they are literally changing are the ones that are going to come out of this. If you survive, you win. But it is not easy to survive.” — Helaine KnappGUEST BIO:Helaine Knapp is the founder of CityRow, an in-studio and at-home rowing experience that is exploding all over the country. An expert in intrinsic motivation, Helaine realized that the only workout that matters is the one you actually complete, so she built the power of choice, motivation and accountability into CityRow— with incredible results.Prior to launching CityRow, Helaine worked in media and participated in two high-profile tech company sales: Buddy Media's $800M sale to Salesforce.com and Olapic's $120M sale to Monotype. A longtime proponent of group fitness, Helaine launched CityRow six years ago and it now operates 20 studios with over 60 planned nationwide while also helping innovate the in-home, on-demand rowing fitness space.Learn more about Helaine & CityRow:CityRowHelaine's LinkedInForbes Profile on HelaineOPENING MONOLOGUE:After spending years climbing the corporate ladder, Helaine Knapp left the world of publishing for startup life. Group fitness was her outlet, and after a major physical setback, Helaine persevered and went on to found CityRow, an in-studio rowing fitness experience that has scaled massively across the United States, both in-studio and in people's homes. Helaine has been featured as a business leader and wellness expert on Today, Women's Health, ABC, Vogue, Yahoo! Finance and People, and she's done it all by unlocking the power of her intrinsic motivation— and helping others unlock their own.CORE TOPICS + DETAILS:[8:02] Getting Tactical About InnovationInnovative thinking doesn't just happen. You need to create the space and environment for it.How often do you take time out from the day-to-day emails and to-do lists and reset your priorities? Innovative thinking won't make time for itself. You have to make time for it and dedicate your mind and the resources of your team to fostering that innovation even when it seems like you're drowning in the day-to-day.--[14:39] Ideas Are Hard. Bringing Them to Life is HarderHow do you have the courage to execute on ideas?The idea-generating process is the fun part. But how do you execute on that idea? The key is to move one decision at a time. Don't focus all your energy on your massive, ten-year, multibillion-dollar point on the distant horizon. Focus on what needs to happen today and go from there.--[21:00] How Do You Know You're Doing What You Love?Gauging how you feel about the way you spend your daysEach day take stock of what you're doing and how you feel about what you're doing. Sometimes you can like something that is also draining of your energy. Find out where everything sits in relation to whether you love it, hate it, or tolerate it, then adapt your life and career to add more to the buckets you love and remove things from the buckets you hate or only tolerate.--[26:19] What's Your Why?Helaine explores why she does what she does so wellIf you're going to jump into something vulnerable like entrepreneurship for money, fame, or a title, you're going to lose your way. For Helaine, the goal was to help people move their bodies in a better, smarter way for lifelong health. Your personal ‘why' may be something different, but you have to begin the journey of finding it now— not simply wait for it to show up somewhere along the way.--[37:17] From Job to CareerExploring the most difficult leap in professional lifeWondering how you can find a career that could turn into a calling? Get to know yourself first. Think about your strengths and weaknesses. Be real with yourself. Then use that to shape the way you spend your days. Get a sense for who you are, and you'll end up with a sense of what you're meant to do.--[42:31] The Core Tenets of CityRowHelaine talks about why guiding principles are so important in life and businessAt CityRow, Helaine believes in following a set of core tenets that lead her and everyone at the company. They include accessibility, scalability, and a culture that makes people proud to work there. If you're leading a team, an organization, or simply your own personal mission, identify your core tenets. Get clear and explicit about what they are. Then use them to guide you forward.--[50:08] Double Down on Strengths or Correct Weaknesses?There's no right answer, only the right answer for youIt's a time-honored question: is it better to home in on our strengths and help them power us or work on our weaknesses to fill out our capabilities? Helaine believes in a hybrid approach, which involves doubling down on strengths but also surrounding ourselves with people who are strong where we're weak, effectively filling those gaps with the skills of others. But to do this takes awareness. Take the time to identify your own strengths and weaknesses, even if it may be uncomfortable at first.--[53:57] Helaine's Final ThoughtsThe queen of rowing's take on the topic of optimizing for happinessSometimes the simplest answers are the truest. Helaine's advice: do what makes you happy. Discover your strengths, find your intrinsic motivation, and pursue the things you're truly passionate about. Life's too short to do anything else.RESOURCES:[00:28] Purpose Labs[01:10] CityRow[25:21] Inc Magazine Article on Helaine & CityRow[41:15] Good to Great and Built to Last, by Jim Collins[46:05]Brené Brown[56:10] High-Performance Team ScorecardMAKE A PLAY:Let's score where we stand on our purpose, choice, progress, and impact.

Chrome's Ad Blocking Update Gets a Release Date! - Dec. 20, 2017

The Buyer's Journey

Today's Commexis Cast discusses the announcement of the release of Google Chrome's ad blocking update in early 2018, influencer marketing requiring "authenticity", and video being 61% of mobile app marketing. There's been a lot of discussion earlier in the year about when Google Chrome's ad blocking update will hit the browser. Yesterday, Google announced February 15th as the release date for the update. Ads will be blocked based on violation of standards set by the Coalition for Better Ads (CFBA). This includes "autoplay videos with automatic sound and prestitial countdown ads, which are full-page takeovers that activate before entering a site." If you're uncertain if your ads are meeting the conditions, don't fret. According to AdExchanger's James Hercher, "[b]eginning in January, the [CFBA] will certify publishers and supply-side networks that agree to abide by the standards and block ads to those that don't" using their Better Ads Experience Program. Aaron Baar on MediaPost breaks down new research from CITE Research, commissioned by Olapic, that discusses consumers' desire for "authenticity" in influencer marketing. Baar explains, "42% said 'authenticity' was a top reason for trusting an influencer," though that may make brands who wish to control their message more a bit uneasy. For those brands, however, it's important to remember that "nearly a third (31%) said they have purchased a product or service based on social influencer content. Additionally, nearly a quarter said they have made a recommendation based on a post." So, maybe letting an influencer have a little leeway isn't too bad of a thing. eMarketer's Rahul Chadha shares new data from Ad Colony that shows nearly 61% of app install marketing budget was spent on video. Specifically, "most of that—30%—was directed toward full-screen video, while 24% of app install ad spending went to social video. In-feed video accounted for substantially less than either of those, at 7%." Check the full stats in the image below. For those working on app advertising, these numbers are hard to ignore.

Thank you Katie Shea for introducing me to today's guest Helaine Knapp ( https://twitter.com/HelaineKnapp ) , founder and CEO of CITYROW ( https://www.cityrow.com/ ). CITYROW ( https://www.cityrow.com/ ) is a boutique fitness studio which started in New York City that specializes in a total body, high-intensity, low-impact workout using a water-based rowing machine and strength-training exercises. They have since launched Cityrow go, taking the boutique rowing experience into your home with on demand classes. I highly recommend following her on twitter @HelaineKnapp ( https://twitter.com/HelaineKnapp ) A few books that inspired Helaine: The Four Agreements ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1878424319?camp=1789&creativeASIN=1878424319&ie=UTF8&linkCode=xm2&tag=theconsumervc-20 ) by Don Miguel Ruiz Shoe Dog ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1501135929?camp=1789&creativeASIN=1501135929&ie=UTF8&linkCode=xm2&tag=theconsumervc-20 ) by Phil Knight Good to Great ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0066620996?camp=1789&creativeASIN=0066620996&ie=UTF8&linkCode=xm2&tag=theconsumervc-20 ) by Jim Collins Questions I ask Helaine: * Let's begin before you became an entrepreneur. How did your experiences at Olapic and Buddy Media help you as a founder? * What was your attraction to fitness and athletics? * What was the insight the led you to founding CITY ROW? * Why rowers? * What were some of the biggest hurdles when starting out? * Why did you decide on the franchise model? * Since we haven't discussed the franchise model on this show before, could you walk us through some of the innerworkings? * How did you think about growth? * What led you to create CITY ROW Go? * What were some of the biggest challenges when you decided to introduce this product? * What has been some of the challenges with the roll out? * What has been some of the effects of COVID? * How do you think about the future of the in store rowing experience once we all have the vaccines and people are able to work out in studios and gyms? * Walk me through your fundraising process. * What was the biggest hangup from investors? * People invest in what you know * What's one thing you would change about the fundraising process? * Not so much of a dance, wish more of a equality * What's one book that inspired you personally and one book that inspired you professionally? * What's the best piece of advice you've ever received? * What's one piece of advice for founders?
