Send us Fan MailMost sales reps are lucky to get coaching once a week. What's lost in all the conversations nobody sees? Malcolm Walker-Hendricks, Enterprise Sales Executive at SalesAsk, joins Anya Chrisanthon to talk about AI-powered conversation intelligence built specifically for home building, home renovation, and home improvement - recording every sales appointment, generating follow-up, syncing to your CRM, and giving every rep a personal coach.The flashlight versus the light switch A mystery shop or ride-along is a flashlight in a dark room - a snapshot in time. Continuous coaching hits the light switch on the way in: you see the habits, the patterns, and the path to improvement. Unbiased feedback with full context, after every single conversation.Trained on the industry, not generic AI Handing a generic AI your sales conversations is like eating soup with a fork. SalesAsk's model is trained on over 250,000 successful conversations in home building, home reno, and home improvement - it knows the terminology and what good looks like before it ever learns your company.Multi-session tracking for a 300-day purchase cycle New home sales isn't one conversation - it's OSC to sales agent to design center over months. SalesAsk stitches every conversation together so the buyer never has to say "I want green tile in the washroom" three times. Plus a context brief before every meeting: CRM history, past objections, and what actually matters to this buyer - on your phone or Apple Watch before they walk in.Meet CoachDean (soon to be Agent Dean) The all-knowing personal assistant and sales coach - named for legendary North Carolina coach Dean Smith. Follow-up help, reports from past conversations, and role-playing through Rep Lab, where practice scenarios are scored the same way as game day. As one top-100 builder put it during a slow season: instead of waiting for a mystery shop report, reps practice, practice, practice.The recording question, answered How do reps feel about being recorded? Change the mindset: if you could convert more deals without changing anything in your workflow, would you? And for buyers, Malcolm keeps it simple in any state: "Do you mind if I record our conversation so I don't miss anything in our notes?" The result: a +37% average close rate improvement - driven by speed, follow-up, and sales process adherence.The motorcycle story A buyer went MIA. The rep searched his recorded conversations, found a through-line about an upcoming motorcycle trip, referenced it in a P.S. - and closed the house. We're salespeople, but before that, we're humans.Where it's heading Agentic AI: follow-up done on your behalf, context delivered in a click or two, and the mundane automated so reps spend their time where it matters - closing.Connect with Malcolm on LinkedIn or email malcolm@salesask.com. Learn more at salesask.com and replab.ai - and catch the SalesAsk team (and Malcolm's top 20 sneakers) at CoLab in San Antonio this September, where Anewgo and SalesAsk are mutual sponsors.About Anewgo Anewgo is an all-in-one new home sales and marketing platform.

We're adding a whole new dimension to our discussion of the perfect Sonic game. Yes, it's time to create the perfect 3D Sonic game using past game stages as building blocks. This week, Stuart and Lime share their games. Come back next week for the epic conclusion of this 4-part celebration of the blue blur's 35th anniversary.   Theme song of The SEGA Lounge by OSC.

¿Sigues usando find y grep como en los 90? Hace unas semanas me puse a buscar un archivo en un repositorio con git, lancé el find de toda la vida, y cuando volví de tomarme un café —literalmente— todavía seguía buscando. El problema es que find se mete en el .git, en los binarios, en sitios donde no debería. Y grep, pues lo mismo, sobre todo si trabajas con Unicode o con repositorios grandes. Así que llevo un tiempo usando fd y ripgrep, dos herramientas escritas en Rust que son órdenes de magnitud más rápidas. Pero lo mejor no es solo la velocidad: es que puedes combinarlas para crear pipelines que alimenten directamente a tu IA local.fd (44.1k estrellas en GitHub) es un reemplazo directo de find. En los benchmarks oficiales, buscar archivos con fd -u tarda 0.8 segundos donde find necesita 11 segundos con -iname y casi 20 segundos con -iregex. 23 veces más rápido. Y no solo es velocidad: fd respeta .gitignore por defecto, soporta expresiones regulares directamente, y tiene placeholders como {}, {.}, {/} y {//} que te permiten ejecutar comandos sobre cada resultado con -x o pasarlos en lote con -X.ripgrep (67.4k estrellas) es lo mismo pero para buscar texto. En el kernel de Linux, rg tarda 0.08 segundos donde grep tarda 2.67 segundos. 32 veces más rápido. Y tiene superpoderes que grep ni sueña: salida en JSON con --json, búsqueda en archivos comprimidos con -z, soporte PCRE2 con -P para lookaheads, y un flag --passthru que te muestra también las líneas que no coinciden. Desde la versión 15 también soporta hyperlinks OSC 8 y respeta repositorios de Jujutsu.Pero lo que realmente me tiene enganchado es combinarlos. El patrón es sencillo: fd encuentra los archivos que te interesan, ripgrep extrae el contexto relevante, y todo eso se lo pasas a Ollama para que lo procese. Te enseño la función aresumen que me he montado en Bash, y su equivalente en Fish, para preguntarle a mi documentación local sin salir de la terminal. Cosas como "resume todo lo que he escrito sobre Ollama en el último mes" se resuelven con un pipeline de tres comandos. Sin RAG, sin bases de datos vectoriales, sin complicaciones. Solo con un pipe bien puesto y el modelo adecuado.También te cuento cómo usar jq para procesar la salida JSON de ripgrep, cómo montar un buscador interactivo con fzf y bat, y los errores más comunes al construir estos pipelines. Si alguna vez has pensado "ojalá pudiera preguntarle a mis propias notas desde la terminal", este episodio te va a gustar. Y si todavía usas find y grep, te aseguro que después de oír los benchmarks no vuelves atrás.Capítulos del episodio:0:00 — Introducción: fd y ripgrep para alimentar a tu IA2:30 — El problema con find y grep tradicionales5:00 — fd: el find que siempre quisiste tener8:00 — Placeholders y expresiones regulares en fd11:00 — ripgrep: el grep con superpoderes14:00 — Salidas estructuradas con JSON y jq16:30 — La combinación estrella: fd + ripgrep con -x19:00 — Pipelines avanzados para filtrar archivos21:30 — Integración con IA local: fd + rg + Ollama24:30 — Alias, funciones y trucos del día a día27:00 — Despedida y conclusionesRecursos mencionados:- fd (sharkdp/fd): https://github.com/sharkdp/fd- ripgrep (BurntSushi/ripgrep): https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep- Ollama: https://ollama.com- jq: https://jqlang.github.io/jq/- fzf: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf- bat: https://github.com/sharkdp/batMás información y enlaces en las notas del episodio

Antiga demanda entre tutores e a comunidade em geral, o Espírito Santo vai ganhar o primeiro Hospital Veterinário Estadual. A estrutura será instalada em Cariacica, na Grande Vitória, e terá atendimento gratuito para cães e gatos. Para selecionar a organização da sociedade civil (OSC) que ficará responsável pela implantação e operação da unidade, o governo do Estado publicou, na última quinta-feira (13), o edital de chamamento público.Segundo informações da secretaria do Meio Ambiente e Recursos Hídricos (Seama), a nova unidade será destinada à oferta gratuita de assistência médico-veterinária a cães e gatos, com prioridade para animais tutelados por população de baixa renda, protetores independentes, organizações de proteção animal e demais públicos prioritários definidos pelo "Pet Vida".O serviço deverá contemplar consultas gerais e especializadas, atendimentos de urgência e emergência, exames laboratoriais e de diagnóstico por imagem, internações, tratamentos ambulatoriais, procedimentos cirúrgicos, microchipagem, identificação animal e ações educativas de guarda responsável e bem-estar animal.Apesar de estar localizado em Cariacica, o hospital não será exclusivo para moradores do município. O edital estabelece que o serviço terá abrangência estadual, de acordo com os critérios e fluxos de acesso que serão definidos pela Seama. Quem explica detalhes do funcionamento é o secretário de Estado do Meio Ambiente, Victor Ricciardi.

近年，快团团（KTT）已经成为国内精品咖啡豆的重要销售渠道。海外知名烘焙品牌、巴拿马瑰夏、庄园竞拍批次，甚至一些最昂贵的咖啡豆，都在这里流通、成交。这些精品咖啡豆通常批次小、SKU变化快，一支豆子可能只够上架一次，很难适应传统电商依赖长期商品链接、稳定库存和搜索流量的逻辑。快团团上架灵活，基于微信群和朋友圈传播，与精品咖啡原有的熟人关系和圈层信任恰好契合，也降低了小卖家进入市场的运营门槛。当然，快团团并非没有争议，售后保障、平台监管等问题始终伴随着它的野蛮生长。最近，一位咖啡博主对个别快团团卖家的经营方式提出质疑，并借用了“劣币驱逐良币”的说法。没想到，这条视频引发的讨论很快超出事件本身：原本严肃、甚至带有批评意味的标签，被商家和消费者接过去，变成了一场大型网络自嘲。团长上新时自称“劣币开团”，爱好者晒出订单，也主动认领“劣币”身份。一场关于渠道、成本和行业利益的争论，就这样变成了咖啡爱好者争相参与的热梗。这一次在东莞，我找来了三位恰好身处这场变化之中的年轻咖啡人：OSC Shop 的老李，从进口海外烘焙品牌做起，从体量来看，是当之无愧的“ktt四大天王”常驻候选人；曾经叫“穷学生小李”的 LL ROASTERY，从顶级咖啡玩家做到烘焙，如今转向巴拿马生豆；还有17岁的 Strategy Coffee Roaster 主理人权仔，14岁开始烘焙，一边读高中，一边研发自己的咖啡调配水产品。我们从他们怎么买豆、卖豆聊起，也聊到选品、养豆、物流、冲煮和售后中的真实成本，以及那些有趣、偶尔也让人哭笑不得的经历。快团团卖家就是“劣币”吗？他们卖的也可能是品质不错、价格透明的优质咖啡豆。传统烘焙商就一定是“良币”吗？他们在传统电商平台上同样面临不体面的价格竞争。销售渠道、品牌身份和价格高低，显然都不能直接决定谁“良”谁“劣”。那么，究竟什么才是“良币”？它该由一句标签来定义，还是交给这个市场来验证呢？嘉宾：老李｜OSC SHOP 小李｜LL Coffee Roastery权仔｜ Strategy Coffee Roaster� 特别鸣谢：Coffeeplus播客首位100h听友、东莞热心市民梁静女士让我们聚在一起本期内容：00:01:52 正片开始00:02:53 三个东莞年轻人，从顶级玩家到卖咖啡00:07:03 中国特色 ktt 卖咖啡小史00:13:41 快团团就是卷低价吗？00:24:38 和客人、和评价、和偏见的关系00:36:21 “小红书锐评成风”这个现象00:44:01 做精品咖啡，赚钱吗？00:48:28 17岁烘焙师，只喝也只烘巴拿马瑰夏00:51:50 一款能解决“燥感”的调配水产品01:00:03 “买卖和咖啡群，都是双方的互相选择”01:09:21 OSC如何做到头部团长？01:21:35 谁是“良币”，谁是“劣币”？01:28:11 最好卖的是口粮豆和顶级瑰夏！延伸资料：▼（图）快团团 &小程序://LLRoaster/KPQbgCW5id34UQq▼（图）ONE DROP ONLY®️主播：咖啡播客的Yujia小红书：Coffeeplus播客微信订阅号：Coffeeplus播客如果觉得内容还不错，请记得订阅节目，您的每一次评论、转发和分享，都会让这个小播客走向更远的未来！�也可以搜索添加微信yujiajia_wx, 记得备注“播客”哦，邀请您进入微信社群～�� � 8月21日，Coffeeplus播客五周年啦！� 马路咖啡 × Coffeeplus播客 联名咖啡豆即将发售（图）

Jen welcomes DYC Online Sales Coach Molly Adams to the podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about professionalism in online sales roles, covering everything from office setup and equipment to dress code and daily mindset routines. Housekeeping:Online Sales and Marketing Summit - October 1-2, 2026 in Austin, TX - We are in full-on summit prep mode - it is over 70% sold out - so you better get your ticket soon!Jen and Mike recently hosted a virtual online event covering the four things online sales professionals need to do to maintain their "human edge" in an increasingly digital world. If you missed it, don't worry, this topic will be covered at Summit.TITO Shoutout:Kait Estes, OSC at Landmark Homes - Kait is brand new to the role and is stepping into a long-held seat, learning new leads, and diving into her CRM all at once. Excited to watch all that she's doing!Key Takeaways:Setting Up Your Home Office: Jen makes the case for a dedicated office space with a door, positioned so that a window is in front of you (not behind you), and a pretty, professional-looking backdrop.Equipment That Sets You Up for Success: Molly walks through the tech stack for success, including dual monitors, hardwired internet, a separate webcam, good lighting (they use a Lume Cube), a wireless keyboard/mouse, and more.Dress for Success: You're the face of your organization! What does that look like? How are you showing up to work? No one needs full glam, but if you're doing video emails daily - are you showing up ready? If you had to hop on a call, what impression are you making?Mindset & Planning: Both Jen and Molly share their "commute to work" routines to their home offices and how they plan their day each morning, step outside during the day, and close the office door at the end of the day to create boundaries and separation. Skills Check:Evaluate your office setup. Do you need to upgrade? Really check yourself on your professionalism - are you business ready?  

Why do writ petitions so often fail? Judge Tom Fay covers the technical writ rules that attorneys often overlook. In part 2 of our conversation with former lead writs attorney at the Santa Ana Court of Appeal, Judge Fay covers the CRC 8.486 and local rule requirements for your writ petition, the available remedies for a writ petition—Palma notice, alternative writ, or OSC—and the underappreciated complexity of supersedeas.Key points:STAY REQUESTED must be on the cover—in bold, all caps: This single line triggers immediate routing to writ staff.Palma, alternative writ, OSC each signal something different: A suggestive Palma notice generally means the panel agrees with the petitioner; an OSC may mean the panel wants to write a published opinion and could lean toward the trial court.Alternative writs are not law of the case: Roullier v. Cannondale, 101 Cal.App.4th 1180—a trial court that complies with an alternative writ can still be reversed on appeal.Supersedeas is a motion for stay, not a true original proceeding: Veyna v. Orange County Nursery, Inc. (2009) 170 Cal.App.4th 146.Appellate lawyers: what else is on your emergency writ checklist?

Fredrik snackar med Patrik Svensson om Spectre.tui och att dyka ner i saker för att man är intresserad av dem. Patrik berättar om vad Spectre.tui är och hur det kom till, tack vare en lucka mellan uppdrag. På vägen får vi lite koll på hur man ritar i terminaler, vad som är gemensamt med Spectre.console, och varför teckenbredd i Unicode är ett kaninhål. Borde inte alla få möjligheten att bara göra vad de vill då och då? Alla måste inte sträva mot att använda maximalt av universums energi, och de som gör det behöver verkligen inte all den uppmärksamhet och alla de resurser de får. Vi får också en uppdatering av hur det går med Opencli och projektmodellen det använder för att hantera drive by-åsikter och undvika att Patrik blir en flaskhals. Ett stort tack till Cloudnet som sponsrar vår VPS! Har du kommentarer, frågor eller tips? Vi är @kodsnack, @thieta, @krig, och @bjoreman på Mastodon, har en sida på Facebook och epostas på info@kodsnack.se om du vill skriva längre. Vi läser allt som skickas.

Host Jen Barkan welcomes award-winning OSC Alex Neller of Dream Finders Homes into the studio, who shares her journey from bartending to online sales and the mindset and habits that have driven her success. The conversation covers what makes a great OSC from the inside out, touching on authenticity, AI adoption, realtor relationships, and the power of genuine human connection.Housekeeping:We are hiring for an Online Sales Coach! If you have a passion for the role and you want to take that passion into training, coaching, and leading, this is the job for you - apply today.TITO Shoutout:Natalie Smeby, OSC at DR Horton Houston Division - Natalie puts her training and knowledge immediately into action and has been seeing results right away.Key Takeaways:Background and the Bartender-to-OSC Pipeline: Alex shares how her restaurant and bartending background gave her a natural edge in reading the room, adapting to different people, and building rapport. AI Adoption and Overcoming Resistance: Alex was initially resistant when encouraged to use AI, worried it would make her communication feel transactional. She came around by treating AI as a baseline formatter rather than a replacement for her voice, and now uses it daily to operate at a higher level across all her relationships.Superpowers and Kryptonite: Alex names human connection as her superpower, knowing her leads' dogs' names and following through from first contact to close. Her kryptonite is a "buy or die" mentality that can lead to task fatigue from over-assigning follow-ups, though she shared a win of finally booking an appointment with a lead she had been nurturing since 2023.Realtor Relationships Challenge: In today's market, Alex says realtors are being flooded with emails and simply not reading them. Her approach is to get intentional: pick up the phone, text to flag an email, and position yourself as a one-stop resource. She also emphasizes treating realtor partners the way you treat leads, making them feel seen and valued.Skills Check:Check yourself, check your mindset, check your perspective. When you get up in the morning, pause and think about something you're grateful for. Start your day with that mantra, and write it down.Take a moment before you roll into the craziness of the day, pause, look around, and reflect. That will set the tone and shape your mindset.

Host Jen Barkan talks to Emily Tucker, an award-winning OSC with Robuck Homes, about how she goes beyond traditional lead management by visiting communities, creating successful video content, and building relationships with on-site sales agents and realtors to amplify her builder's brand presence.Housekeeping2026 Online Sales and Marketing Summit - October 1-2, 2026 in Austin, TX - According to Emily, if you're an Online Sales Specialist, you have to go!TITO ShoutoutKelly Ward and Athena Azan with M/I Homes - Internet Sales Team of the Year at the MAME Awards.Key TakeawaysBe the face of your brand, not just a phone answerer: Emily makes monthly on-site visits to each community to create video content that humanizes her as an OSC and builds a personal social media presence alongside the company's corporate accounts. A personal brand reaches people differently than a builder's corporate page alone!You don't need fancy equipment to get started: A phone, an inexpensive tripod, and a lapel mic from Amazon are all Emily uses. The bigger barrier is perfection paralysis - use the mantra "progress over perfection" and just do it, even if early videos are rough.One site visit can fuel weeks of content across multiple channels: A single afternoon on-site can generate a month's worth of video content that can be repurposed across social platforms, text prospecting, emails, and realtor outreach. On-site visits strengthen the OSC-to-sales-agent relationship: Collaborating on videos builds trust and connection with on-site agents. Teaching agents video skills and inviting them to participate turns the visit into a relationship-building moment, not just a content-creation task.Skills CheckPick one community, talk to leadership and/or marketing about how you can create some content. Think about how you could leverage this content across multiple channels - marketing, prospecting, and follow up. 

Send us Fan MailIn a market where a lot of builders are pulling back, Jennifer Cooper is making the case for why that's exactly the wrong move. Jennifer is the founder and CEO of Evolution Marketing and Evolution Design Studios - a fractional marketing consultancy with seasoned teams across the country serving home builders of every size. In this episode, she and Anya Chrisanthon of Anewgo get into the real conversations happening in builder boardrooms right now.The budget conversation nobody wants to have If your growth goals are going up but your marketing budget is staying flat, you're setting yourself up to miss your numbers. Jennifer explains why spend has to match growth - and what it signals when leadership doesn't value what marketing can actually do.AI adoption in the field right now Jennifer isn't scared of AI - she's brought it to the table as a strategic partner. She breaks down what smart teams are actually doing with AI, why she keeps an "invisible chair" for it in every strategy conversation, and how builders can use it to work faster without losing their brand voice.AEO, authority, and the PR comeback AI is looking for authoritative content and third-party validation. Jennifer shares how one of her builders built a PR strategy that AI is now actively sourcing - and why blogs, content, and earned media are more important than ever in the AIO era.The CRM conversation we're still having in 2026 Having a CRM isn't enough. Jennifer explains why most builders have it but aren't using it right - and how to think about your full tech stack from OSC tools to self-touring to visualization.Shoppable model homes: the business case Evolution Design Studios brings a full shoppable model program to builders of any size.

Send us Fan MailAnewgo AI Brief: April 2026 - Agents, Buyer Expectations, and the Closing WindowThe AI window for home builders is closing faster than most people think. In this month's Anewgo AI Brief, Anya Chrisanthon - CCO at Anewgo and host of the Anewgo of New Home Sales podcast - delivers her monthly no-hype download on what is actually happening in AI and what it means for new home sales in April 2026.The AI Model Landscape GPT-4 is retired. OpenAI has moved fully to GPT-5 and ships updates every few weeks. Google's Gemini 3.1 Pro leads most independent benchmarks. Claude just shipped a new Opus model on April 16th - their strongest yet for complex reasoning and agentic tasks. 97% of real estate firms now report their teams are actively using AI. This is not early adoption. This is infrastructure.AI Assistants vs. AI Agents An AI assistant is your GPS - it guides, but you're still behind the wheel. An AI agent acts for you: identifies the buyer who's been back three times this week, scores their intent, writes a follow-up script, and pushes a task to your OSC before morning. The buyer never filled out a form. Anya explains how Anewgo's Sophie is already building this into the Anewgo CRM.The Buyer Expectation Gap Cotality (formerly CoreLogic) found that 75% of home buyers now expect AI during the buying process. Not would like - expect. Most builder websites aren't delivering that yet.Three Things to Do in the Next 90 Days (1) Get your website AI-ready with an assistant that knows your floorplans, communities, and inventory. (2) Capture your invisible buyer data - 99.5% of visitors never fill out a form, but the right AI system gives them a profile. (3) Audit your content library - AI can transform a construction site photo into a finished home rendering in seconds.The AI Slop Problem AI does not create slop. Lazy use of AI creates slop. Use it to amplify your brand voice, not replace it.Anya's Take The large builders are not watching AI. They are building. Behavioral data and intelligence compound over time - and so does the gap. The question is whether you are leading that charge in your market or responding to it.Come find us at anewgo.com/podcast - we're happy to nerd out on this with you.

Starting from the chaotic process of managing audio and lighting cues, I walk you through changing the workflow into a seamless experience using QLab, Light Key, and OSC commands. Heard how we’re setting up QLab for audio playback, integrating lighting control through Light Key, and utilizing a Behringer X32 digital mixer to manage audio snippets effectively.

In the first week of our Lenten series, "Snapshots of Jesus," Co-Lead Pastor Jason Coker dives into the story of Jesus' baptism in Matthew 3:13-17. Rather than viewing baptism merely as a strict act of obedience to an institution, Pastor Jason explores its historical roots in the Jewish practice of mikvah and the radical nature of John the Baptist's wilderness ministry. Ultimately, we learn how Jesus stepping into the Jordan River was a profound act of solidarity with the marginalized, the outcasts, and those pushed to the edges of society. Join us as we rethink what baptism means for us today and how it invites us into deeper alignment with the life, teachings, and solidarity of Jesus. Want to Be Baptised This Easter at OSC?

In this episode, Anya Chrisanthon sits down with Leah Fellows (Blue Gypsy Inc.) and Carol Morgan (Denim Marketing) to break down the 2025 Online Homebuyer Mystery Shop and what it reveals about speed-to-lead, follow-up quality, and the widening gap between builders with and without Online Sales Counselors (OSCs).Download the Full Report HEREWe cover what the mystery shop tested (50 builders, real form submissions, 30-day tracking), why “no personalized email within 5 minutes” is still a thing in 2025, and what builders can do immediately without over-automating their prospects into oblivion (yes, we're talking 74 marketing emails in 30 days

Send us a textA simple question opens a complicated story: what happens when you say no to a powerful directive that feels wrong? Rick joins us with 43 years of experience spanning infantry, war-zone logistics, and Pentagon program oversight to recount how refusing an alleged extortion scheme set off a cascade of retaliation, reassignment, and legal battles. The stakes are not just personal—this is about how procurement ethics, whistleblower protection, and culture shape national security and public trust.We walk through his time in Kuwait, Iraq, and Afghanistan, where he says he pushed back on inflated costs, substandard equipment, and pressure to rubber-stamp paperwork. Then we move to the Pentagon, where Rick describes a supervisor's alleged attempt to steer work from one contractor to a competitor to prompt a payoff hidden as a cost overrun. He asked for the order in writing; it never came. Instead, he says doors closed, friendships and office politics complicated oversight, and a familiar pattern emerged: small write-ups, nitpicks about tone and attendance, and a transfer that led to new allegations of harassment and denied accommodations.This conversation goes beyond headlines to examine how DEI can be misused when identity becomes a shield against scrutiny, why fewer veterans in key roles changes decision-making, and where contracting oversight often cracks under pressure. We dig into the alphabet soup—MSPB, OSC, EEOC, ADA—and how slow, costly processes can deter even the most committed public servants. The message is clear: real inclusion requires merit, transparency, and the courage to investigate quickly, document directives, and protect those who speak up. If you care about defense acquisition, government accountability, and protecting taxpayer dollars, this is a story you need to hear.If this resonates, subscribe, share with a colleague, and leave a review with your take: how should agencies strengthen oversight and safeguard whistleblowers without politics?Stories of Service presents guests' stories and opinions in their own words, reflecting their personal experiences and perspectives.

For home builders, the first impression often occurs long before a prospect steps into a model home—it happens online. Yet new data shows that many digital inquiries are still met with slow responses, inconsistent follow-up or silence altogether. Leah Fellows, president of Blue Gypsy, Inc., and Ben Marks, president of Melinda Brody & Co., join Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss what the 2026 Online Home Buyer Mystery Shop reveals about follow-up speed and missed opportunities in today's buying environment. Now in its sixth year, the study continues to reveal a critical disconnect between internal expectations and actual homebuyer experiences. Why Mystery Shopping Reveals What CRM Data Cannot Many builders rely heavily on customer relationship management (CRM) reports to evaluate performance, but those systems only tell part of the story. “CRM reports tell you what should have happened,” Marks said. “Industry shopping shows what actually happened from the customer's perspective.” That perspective matters more than ever in a market where response time, tone and consistency often determine whether a prospect converts or moves on. Mystery shopping serves as an independent check, confirming not only whether contact was attempted, but also whether questions were answered, conversations were personalized and next steps were clearly communicated. Designing a Study That Mirrors the Homebuyer Journey To capture realistic behavior, the Online Home Buyer Mystery Shop is designed to reflect how today's buyers engage with home builders. Shoppers submit inquiries through website contact forms during business hours, asking questions commonly related to current market conditions, including incentives and availability. Unlike shorter studies that focus solely on initial responses, this mystery shop tracks follow-up over 30 days. The extended window often reveals whether builders nurture demand over time or abandon leads after the first attempt. Six Years of Industry Insights and Lingering Gaps The mystery shop began in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, when builders were forced to pivot quickly to online sales. Despite greater awareness, results show progress has been inconsistent. Builders with online sales counselors (OSCs) continue to outperform those without, a trend largely unchanged over time. The Missing Human Element in Digital Home Sales One concerning trend in the latest report is a decline in the number of builders employing OSCs. Without a dedicated role managing online leads, inquiries are often routed to marketing teams or on-site sales agents focused on walk-in traffic, resulting in slower responses and inconsistent follow-up. Even among builders with OSCs, many fail to make the human presence visible online. About half clearly feature their OSCs on their websites. Fellows said, “Having a personalized feel to your website—that there's a real person there to help—can improve calls to action, lead engagement and more. People think they can cover the buyer journey with a chatbot or AI,” she said. “I still don't think we're there yet.” In an industry built on relationships, the absence of a clear human connection can mean missed opportunities to build confidence early. The study also highlights ongoing challenges with follow-up. Phone outreach declined again in 2025, particularly among builders without OSCs. Leads are often deprioritized when a prospect does not respond immediately. Some builders also lean too heavily on automation. Marks cited an example of a builder that sent 74 marketing emails in 30 days without any direct OSC follow-up. Without the personalized connection of an OSC, the emails likely had a high opt-out rate. Why Anonymous Mystery Shopping Drives Real Improvement Since the study is conducted anonymously, it reflects everyday behavior rather than best-case scenarios. “Advance notice changes behavior,” Marks said. “Response times improve, follow-up becomes more polished and the results no longer reflect everyday action.” Beyond evaluation, mystery shopping provides immediate, actionable insight. It highlights strengths, exposes breakdowns and establishes a baseline to measure progress over time. For builders navigating an increasingly competitive digital landscape, the takeaway is clear: consistent systems, timely follow-up and authentic human connection remain essential to converting online leads into homebuyers.

AI-sanctions might get eyeballs, but the bigger sanctions are still for plain old bad lawyering. Jeff also raises this ethical and pragmatic question: who defends the lawyer when sanctions threaten the client? Should counsel facing an OSC retain separate counsel for the sanctions component to avoid divided attention and better protect client interests? What if the costs of independent counsel are likely to exceed the sanction?$25K for using Anti-SLAPP as a litigation weapon. A bare-bones anti-SLAPP was amplified by record emails suggesting the strategy was to inflict cost and pain rather than win on the merits.$13K for relitigating the merits through a fee appeal. The appeal purported to challenge fees, but largely recycled arguments already rejected in the prior appeal. The court finds the effort both objectively meritless and subjectively aimed at rehashing settled ground.

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech Training and Pico TechnologyWatch Full Video EpisodeMatt digs into listener-submitted questions—starting with a deceptively simple one that “freaks him out”: what's the most misunderstood concept in auto repair? From there, the episode becomes a guided tour through the gray area between knowing what's true and knowing what's useful.He revisits a frequent offender in the misinformation world: catalytic converter diagnostics, particularly the old “switch rate” concept, and why it's fundamentally flawed, even when it appears convincing on a scan tool. From there, Matt zooms out into bigger “how-the-universe-works” territory—magnetism, electric fields, and why some of the most fascinating truths about energy flow will probably never help you fix a car (but are still worth thinking about).The back half of the episode shifts into personal updates (family health), a few fun holiday questions (favorite Christmas movies), an unexpectedly intense movie rant (Thor's Endgame arc), and a grounded-but-honest take on the future of EVs and hybrids.Topics CoveredThe hardest balance in teaching and learning: accuracy vs. applicabilityWhy most misinformation in training/resources is usually unintentionalCatalytic converter misconceptions:Why “post-cat O2 switch rate” is a bad diagnostic foundationWhy scan tool graphs can mislead you even when they “look right”What really matters before condemning a converter (fuel control, exhaust leaks, sensor accuracy, updates, airflow modeling inputs)Why OEM catalyst monitoring relies on oxygen storage capacity (OSC)—and why it's not the same as true conversion efficiencyA brief detour into physics for the curious:Magnetism as an effect tied to moving charge (and why special relativity can explain part of it)The “energy comes from the field” idea—and why it's fascinating even if it doesn't help bay workEGR follow-up: throttling losses, flame speed, and thermal efficiencyPersonal Q&A: updates on Matt's dad's recovery and implanted defibrillator; Danielle's long recovery arcHoliday lightning round: favorite Christmas moviesMovie plot that frustrates Matt most: Thor from Ragnarok → Endgame (and why “Fat Thor” was mishandled)EV future: energy density limits, why hybrids may remain the practical middle ground, and where hydrogen might fitKey Takeaways“What looks true” on a scan tool isn't always what the monitor is actually judging.Catalyst diagnostics are more systems-based...

This final episode of 2025 features Brent Johnson of Santiago Capital discussing the year's volatility and the structural global regime shift underway, operating at the intersection of capital flows and geopolitics. Johnson argues that President Trump has effectively dismantled the post-World War II rules-based order by unapologetically saying the U.S. is now acting solely for its own benefit, creating a "brave new world" for markets. A key misunderstanding among investors is the belief that the U.S. will inevitably lose its place in the world, yet Johnson maintains that the Western Hemisphere still provides the best relative opportunities for asset allocation. This shift is marked by the move toward centrally planned, state-sponsored markets, exemplified by the Department of War's Office of Strategic Capital (OSC), which acts as a 21st-century Manhattan Project to secure supply chains. The OSC facilitates this by using public-private partnerships to match government funds with private capital, thereby financing the re-shoring and remilitarization of strategic industries. This government focus on national security is expected to override environmental concerns, creating opportunities in North American natural resource sectors, like energy, earth minerals, gold, and silver, over the next decade or two.
