The episode emphasizes that visibility requires purposeful posting, not just increased quantity; creators often feel invisible despite frequent posting due to ineffective strategies.Host Karena Calhoun experienced a breakthrough by realizing engagement and the right messaging were key after feeling overlooked in her content journey.A three-part Visibility Formula is introduced: Positioning (clarity in messaging), Engagement-Based Content (conversational posts), and Consistency Over Volume (focus on quality with 3-4 impactful posts).Positioning example illustrates specific messaging: 'I teach introverted entrepreneurs how to attract online clients without feeling drained' shows the power of niche targeting.Three myths are debunked: 1) Daily posting isn't essential for relevance; 2) Algorithms reward engagement, not mere presence; 3) Smaller followings can yield higher sales.Engagement is a two-way street; creators must initiate interaction to boost visibility and solve low engagement problems.Understanding the audience is crucial; creators should actively analyze DMs, comments, and competitors to better meet follower needs.The podcast stresses the importance of being visible on preferred platforms where the audience is most active, enhancing genuine engagement.Lastly, visibility requires smarter strategies rather than just harder work; immediate fixes are attainable for creators facing visibility challenges.

Your firm's site greets visitors long before a proposal or a handshake. In this episode of the PSM Show, co-hosts Damion Morris and Deirdre Booth sit down with content strategist and copywriter Ben Culbreath to unpack what your homepage is really saying—and why that message may be turning prospects or future hires away.   Ben shares field-tested ways to move a reader from “nice photos” to “let's talk,” beginning with a simple litmus test—searching for the word you—and a copy layout known as the F pattern. He explains how clear headlines, client-focused language, and specific calls to action guide visitors through services, culture, and career paths without forcing them to hunt for key details.   The conversation covers: • Positioning your firm through story instead of slogans • Using client interviews to surface authentic phrases that spark attention • Showing the how behind your work to add value and context to price discussions • Turning the careers page into a true recruiting tool that filters fit and boosts retention • Fresh alternatives to the tired “contact us” button that invite low-pressure conversations   Whether your goal is stronger pursuit support, a more magnetic talent funnel, or copy that simply reads like a human wrote it, Ben's advice will help your website start better conversations.   Listen now, then run his quick audits to spot exactly where small edits will create a major impact.

#HRhelpdesk #IndiaHRGuide #Mandeep Singh an HR expert with 24 years of experience, explains the concept of percentile positioning in salary benchmarking and compensation philosophy. Percentile positioning helps organizations compare their pay levels against competitors by showing where they stand relative to the market—for example, at the 60th or 90th percentile. Unlike percentages, percentiles reflect comparative positioning rather than absolute numbers. This concept is crucial when building compensation strategies and interpreting salary benchmarking reports. Understanding where to position your organization's pay—whether leading, matching, or lagging the market—ensures you attract and retain the right talent effectively.

Whether we're considering domestic or international equities, market movements and valuations seem to be reflecting sentiments rather than underlying fundamentals. Moving into the second half of 2025, it's crucial to look beyond inflated valuations and seek pockets of opportunity that offer both value and quality.In this episode, Matt and Emily talk to podcast host John P. Bryson about how investors can navigate today's volatile market even as economic slowdown worries persist. Here's a sneak peek into the conversation.1 What's U.S. economic data indicating?Matt: The employment picture is still holding up okay, with monthly job gains of about 150,000. Initial jobless claims have come up a little bit but are still at a low level historically. Overall, it's not amazing growth, but it's not too slow either. It seems like no one's appreciating the slowdown in inflation, but the data's showing it. In our view, some of the current market movements may have rotation or opportunities presenting themselves because the U.S. economy's holding up all right.2 How is the bond market reacting to U.S. economic data?Emily: Bonds aren't getting the memo as it relates to the macro backdrop. Normally, you would think that bond yields would be falling meaningfully as inflation comes down. We're not really seeing that. We're sort of chopping around in the 4.50%-ish range.Housing, for example, is a critical component of the Consumer Price Index (CPI). There is a lot more housing supply coming online, and that is bringing inflation to the lowest level since 2021.1 That's a really notable dynamic that is just not being picked up by the bond market right now.3 What should investors focus on for the second half of 2025?Emily: We want to be careful about chasing risk here. We need to think about where we can find value. Where can we find the best earnings growth on a relative basis? Where can we find parts of the market that are on sale? We want to be careful about not getting pushed into momentum-driven areas of markets that are just rallying on sentiment.1 U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

If you've ever wondered whether speaking at an unpaid event is worth it—or how to make the most of every speaking opportunity—this solo episode is for you. Lauren breaks down a framework she's developed after speaking at (and attending) more than 100 events and hosting conferences herself.

Lauren outlines three powerful categories to assess any speaking invitation: People and Platform, Perks and Promotion, and Proximity and Positioning. From evaluating audience alignment and email list growth to networking strategy and event values, she provides actionable questions that will help you determine if a speaking opportunity is right for you and how to turn it into long-term value for your brand and business. Whether you're a seasoned speaker or just getting started, this episode will help you say “yes” to the right opportunities and confidently pass on the ones that don't serve your goals. Plus, get a sneak peek at Lauren's Memorable Personal Brand Mastermind, opening again in August for entrepreneurs who want to grow in community. Connect with Lauren V.

In this episode, Gordon Frost, Mercer's Global Rewards Solution Leader, is joined by two colleagues, Peter Boreham, European Executive Compensation Practice Leader, and David Thieke, Head of US and Canada Executive Rewards Practice. They discuss the effects of current economic uncertainty and market volatility and how companies are adjusting their executive reward plans to keep pace with the rapidly changing business environment.  Interesting moments:Positioning exec compCompanies are placing increased value and weighting on telling their compensation story. They are centered as much around the how and why for executive pay level and program designs as the quantum of how much the executives are paid. Innovation in compensationMany people think innovative executive compensation programs have the most bells and whistles. But sometimes what it means is a streamlined and targeted program fit to their situation.  Regulatory impactsWe have binding votes on compensation policy where, every four years in the EU and three years in the UK, you get the policy approved. Once that's approved, you cannot go outside it without shareholder approval. That held down executive compensation.  Global vs. localGiven their proximity to the US, some Canadian organizations are more attuned to practices and pay levels in the US. If they are going to recruit in this global talent market, they need to be a little bit more flexible. https://www.mercer.com/insights/people-strategy/future-of-work/podcast-new-shape-of-work/

This week, I'm joined by the brilliant Rebecca Gunter—brand strategist, copywriter, and my long-time business bestie—for a conversation that goes far beyond algorithms and automation. We're talking about the rise of AI in coaching businesses and how to use it in a way that's powerful, ethical, and very human. We dig deep into: - Why using ChatGPT or other AI tools isn't cheating—and how it's really just a modern form of word processing (with echoes of the past!) - The fears coaches have around AI: being replaced, losing their originality, or damaging trust - How to flip the script and use AI as a creative partner, not a crutch - Why generosity, transparency, and trust are the real differentiators in today's crowded coaching industry - The shift from “show me what you know” to “show me what you can see”—and how this change can unlock your true thought leadership - What it really means to “be a villager” in the AI age This episode is for every coach who's ever felt unsure, guilty, or conflicted about using AI tools. It's also for every coach who's ready to step up and be a bold, discerning, human-first business leader.

A weekend so profound in it's news that I am going to push this beyond the paywall. Let's start abroad… Israel-Iran Conflict Erupts with Fatal StrikesThe military confrontation between Israel and Iran intensified over the weekend, pushing the region toward a broader conflict. After Israel initiated Operation Rising Lion, Iranian ballistic missiles and drones pierced Israeli defenses, leading to 13 fatalities and hundreds of injuries. Iran, in turn, reported nearly 400 deaths, many of them civilians, following retaliatory strikes on its infrastructure and military assets.Israeli airstrikes included the bombing of energy depots in Tehran and targeted assaults on military aircraft. The Israeli government, under Prime Minister Netanyahu, emphasized that the current response was merely the beginning of a broader campaign intended to dismantle Iran's nuclear ambitions and proxy forces.Meanwhile, President Donald Trump denied American involvement but warned of U.S. retaliation should Iran target American interests. A backchannel veto of a potential Israeli strike on Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei suggests complex coordination between the U.S. and Israel.Iran's capacity to fund regional proxies like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis has drastically diminished. This could signal a potential collapse of its foreign influence model. Mossad operations inside Iran, along with America's preemptive repositioning of military personnel, hinted at foreknowledge of the Israeli offensive. As the G7 summit approaches, international leaders are poised to make de-escalation a top priority.Political Assassination Rocks MinnesotaA horrifying attack in Minnesota has left two dead and two more wounded in what authorities are calling a politically motivated assassination. State Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed, while State Senator John Hoffman and his wife were critically injured. The suspect, Vance Luther Boelter, remains at large.Boelter, 57, reportedly used a fake police vehicle and latex disguise to enter the homes of his victims. A manifesto and target list naming politicians and abortion providers were discovered, suggesting a premeditated campaign of terror. Boelter, with a background in security and missionary work, sent a farewell text to his roommate before the attacks and has since vanished.Authorities continue to investigate the full extent of Boelter's motivations, but his prior service on a Minnesota government workforce board and links to evangelical missions underscore the unpredictable nature of ideological radicalization. Political leaders have called for unity and condemned the violence as a tragic escalation of political extremism.No Kings Day Protests and D.C. Parade Are Mercifully DocilePresident Trump's 79th birthday coincided with massive "No Kings Day" protests, as hundreds of thousands across more than 2,000 cities demonstrated against what organizers describe as authoritarian governance. Backed by groups such as the ACLU and teachers unions, the protests, both domestic and international, were largely peaceful, although one protester in Salt Lake City was injured by a firearm discharged from within the crowd.In Washington, D.C., the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary parade presented a striking contrast. With more than 6,000 troops, historical reenactors, and military hardware on display, the event drew cheers and selfies rather than vitriol. Even MSNBC coverage noted the upbeat atmosphere, starkly different from the usual tension of Trump rallies.Despite criticism of the $45 million price tag and corporate sponsorships by firms like Northrop Grumman and Coinbase, the event appeared largely apolitical. Trump delivered a brief, focused speech and administered the enlistment oath to 250 new Army recruits, marking the occasion as a rare moment of bipartisan recognition for military service.Episode Chapters and Time Codes* Intro and Father's Day Reflections (00:00:00)* Israel-Iran Conflict Analysis (00:02:18)* Michael Leiter Interview on Israeli Defense (00:04:08)* Strategic Implications and U.S. Positioning (00:08:12)* Domestic Fallout and Trump's Dilemma (00:13:54)* Netanyahu's Political Calculations (00:18:02)* Minnesota Assassinations and National Impact (00:20:06)* Senator Klobuchar's Tribute (00:20:06)* Suspect Background and Manhunt Details (00:22:36)* Reflections on Political Violence (00:26:32)* No Kings Day Protests Recap (00:33:49)* Army Parade Overview and Public Response (00:35:28)* Final Thoughts on American Expression (00:44:01) This is a public episode.

In this episode of the Admittedly Podcast, host Thomas Caleel speaks directly to rising seniors and their families. First, congratulations—junior year is done. Now it's time to look ahead. The next six weeks before the Common App opens are critical. This is when you take everything you've done and shape it into a focused, compelling strategy. Thomas outlines how students should be using this time: revisiting standardized test plans, reflecting on academic interests and potential majors, and identifying the schools and environments that truly fit. He emphasizes the importance of deeper research, from courses to campus culture, and how these insights should inform your application narrative. Key Topics Discussed: Start With Testing: ACT and SAT scores are becoming more important. Decide now if you need to retake your test, and explore free resources, tutoring, or study groups to help you succeed. Build Your College Framework: Work backward—think about your intended major, then identify the right-fit schools. Research deeply and critically: course offerings, campus culture, and opportunities for involvement. Strategize for Essays: Don't write yet, but start reviewing last year's supplemental essay prompts to understand what different schools value. Shape your approach based on what each school is actually looking for. Summer Isn't Just for Applications: Highly selective schools expect you to be engaged. Volunteer, get a job, read, or explore something that moves you forward. This is your final summer—use it well. Advice for Parents: Support your student, but give them room to process. If your child doesn't want to share their essay, that's okay—find a third-party expert to help with feedback. Get Ahead on the Common App: Create your account and start basic data entry. Getting organized now will save stress later. You don't need to have everything figured out today—but you do need to start moving with purpose. Thoughtful planning now can make the difference between a chaotic senior year and a strategic, confident one. Where are you in the process?

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they dissect polls showing voters still trust Republicans more on the economy, shudder at Border Czar Tom Homan's concern over major terrorist attacks in the U.S. due to Biden's open borders, and size up the Democrats already dipping their toes into the water for 2028.First, they highlight CNN's Harry Enten reporting that Americans increasingly see Republicans as the party of the middle class and more trustworthy on economic issues. Enten appears frustrated by the trend, but Jim and Greg explain that the shift is no surprise—Democrats keep ignoring inflation, cost-of-living spikes, and pushing radical economic policies voters don't want.Next, they react to dire warnings from Border Czar Tom Homan, who says the Biden administration's border failures have allowed two million “gotaways” into the country—migrants who deliberately avoided processing at the border. Homan warns it's only a matter of time before some of these individuals commit a major terrorist attack inside the U.S.Finally, they joke about the preemptive presidential campaigns begun by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Maryland Gov. Wes Moore. In recent appearances in South Carolina, Walz called Trump a "wannabe dictator" and urged supporters to bully Trump. Meanwhile, Gov. Moore inists he's not running for president in 2028 but keeps doing events like this. His record as governor is also not that great. And they also discuss the indecision of Kamala Harris over running for governor of California next year.Please visit our great sponsors:Upgrade your skincare routine with Caldera Lab and see the difference.  Visit https://CalderaLab.com/3ML and use code 3ML at checkout for 20% off your first order. If your revenues are at least in the seven figures, download the free e-book from NetSuite, “Navigating Global Trade: 3 Insights for Leaders” at https://Netsuite.com/Martini
