There's one moment that can completely transform your career trajectory, the job interview. Yet most of us approach it with outdated advice, generic answers, and crossed fingers. We rock up thinking we can wing it, hoping they won't ask about our biggest weakness and secretly panicking about whether we've done enough research. Meanwhile, there's always that one candidate who seems to have it all figured out, asking thoughtful questions and making genuine connections. What's their secret? The truth is, interviewing is a skill that can be mastered. And when you get it right, it opens doors you never thought possible. This week on BIZ, we're breaking down how to turn interview anxiety into interview advantage.

A new pitch has been made for a two-hour ferry link between the North and South Islands. The ‘North South Express' would see a new port built at Clifford Bay, near Blenheim, through a public-private partnership. The plan proposes a multi-use terminal, with no speed restrictions, and boosted logistics productivity. CB Port Limited Spokesperson Dr Stephen Grice told Mike Hosking they can have the port up and running by 2029 – potentially even earlier. He says they're bringing new engineering and capabilities to the project so the port with a floating wharf can be developed and designed overseas.

If you're showing up, pitching big, and still walking away with a “we'll think about it,” let's fix that. Far too many high-level women are losing out on five- and six-figure deals—not because their offer isn't valuable, but because their pitch is killing the deal before it even starts. In this solo episode, I'm breaking down the five most expensive mistakes I see entrepreneurs make when they're pitching high-stakes deals—and how to avoid them. From sounding like a vendor instead of a partner to drowning decision-makers in unnecessary details, this episode is your wake-up call to step up, sharpen your strategy, and position yourself as the most obvious, lowest-risk, highest-ROI choice in the room. Let's shift from “we'll get back to you” to “where do we sign?” What You'll Learn: The #1 reason your pitch is falling flat—even if your offer is solid The difference between sounding like a seller vs. a strategic partner Why information overload is costing you credibility and clarity How to follow up without being annoying (and stay top of mind) The mindset shift that turns one-off wins into long-term deals Mentioned Resources: DM Shayna on Instagram @shaynarattlerdavis and say you listened to this episode to explore how she can help you land your next big deal.

This week on Better Business, Better Life, host Debra Chantry-Taylor is joined by venture capitalist and bestselling author Ben Wiener to unpack the art and challenges of startup pitches. With only two out of ten startups likely to succeed, Ben shares how founders can stand out using his H.E.A.R.T. framework: Hypothesis, Enormous Stakes, Alternatives, Radically Different, and Team. From his journey in law and venture capital to writing Fever Pitch, Ben offers practical insights into what investors really want to hear and why storytelling matters as much as strategy. He explains how anticipating questions, neutralising competition early, and presenting a differentiated solution can make all the difference. Beyond pitching, Ben emphasises the value of active reading, empathy, and paying it forward - reminding us that business success is often rooted in doing the right thing for others. Whether you're a startup founder, a leader refining your communication, or simply curious about what makes ideas resonate, this episode is packed with wisdom and actionable tools.

Send us a textTired of feeling like you need to choose between making sales and maintaining your integrity? This episode of Tiny Marketing reveals the secret to selling effectively without the pushy tactics that make everyone uncomfortable.Sarah Noelle Black pulls back the curtain on "Silent Selling" – a powerful approach that allows you to upsell naturally without triggering resistance in your audience. The psychology is fascinating: when people sense a hard sell coming, they immediately disengage. But when you build curiosity instead of pressure, they'll often sell themselves on your offer.Discover three game-changing strategies you can implement immediately. First, learn how to create private invitations that feel exclusive and personal, targeting only your most engaged leads. Second, master the art of offer threading – weaving mentions of your services naturally throughout your content instead of saving it all for an awkward pitch at the end. Third, explore how to "slip into the DMs" consensually, moving from public webinar conversations to one-on-one sales opportunities in a way that feels helpful rather than intrusive.Perhaps most valuable is Sarah's insight on nurturing attendees who don't convert immediately. She shares her proven framework for creating email sequences that continue to educate while gently reminding prospects how they can work with you when they're ready. The truth is, most sales happen during the nurture phase, not during your initial presentation.What makes this approach so powerful is how it shifts the dynamic: instead of pushing for a sale, you're creating an environment that makes it easy for prospects to take the next step naturally. Your audience maintains their autonomy while you maintain your integrity – and your conversion rates will likely improve as a result.Ready to transform your sales approach?

Send us a textIn a first, Charlotte FC sweeps FC Cincinnati for 2025 with 1-0 away win back in MLS play, after both teams crash out of the Leagues Cup with an eerily similar record against the same Liga MX opponents. Both teams start evenly matched, but the tide turns when Cincinnati earns a repeat performance red card, Wilf Zaha scores a banger, and Kahlina looks his old self from last year.

This week, Scheana and Kiki are back in the studio—still a little flustered after a run-in with the hot mailman. They catch up on Kiki's RHOC storyline and Scheana's unique take on the #RoofieGate discourse, then dive into California's new anti-drugging nightclub measure (and why it's bad news for turtles). Plus: surprise hookups Down Under, what RHONJ might look like without Teresa, mom-shaming comments, and the time Scheana tried to set Lala up with her garbage man. And Scheana reveals the idea she just pitched to Andy Cohen—one that got an enthusiastic reaction. Tune in to find out!
