Show Notes: Chris Freeberg is the co-founder of deck.support, a company that brings some of the best tools for PowerPoint into Google Slides. Chris and cofounder Dimitri Limberopoulos recognized the need for increased functionality in Google Slides as more companies were switching from PowerPoint to Google Slides but wanted a larger variety of tools and functionality for projects. deck.support was launched last month in the Google workspace marketplace as an extension to Google Slides and provides a wide range of  tools to increase creativity and functionality that are available for PowerPoint. deck.support is an affordable and  essential tool for those who prefer working in Google Slides for client or collaboration reasons.     An Introduction to deck.support  deck.support lives within Google Slides and Chris demonstrates how to access the extension. He discusses the use of deck.support which offers various formatting shortcuts and alignment tools. These tools allow users to quickly align images, columns, and objects, and automatically resize them for better alignment.    deck.support Objects and Templates Tutorial Chris explains how to use objects and templates. Objects are text and graphical elements that can be inserted onto a page, such as three-step process wheels or four-step process wheels.  Templates are more elaborate versions of layouts. Templates can include a table of contents, detailed agenda, context, findings, matrix, BFA, call out, box prioritization, traffic light, slide, Harvey Ball, timeline, slide, customer funnels, and more. The founders have tried to replicate the visual languages used in their slides. The collection of templates, key actions, deliverables, and hypotheses is a complete list of 90% of the standard slide designs used in consulting projects. deck.support for Project Goals and Objectives The project also includes charts with more numerous charts to explore the project's goals and objectives. The goal is to provide a more engaging and effective presentation for clients. They have built a roadmap of 10 different chart types to start with, aiming to bring a high level of precision to Google Slides. AI is another feature which allows users to prompt the AI to read a slide and add finishing touches. This is an integration with Open AI, which will look at a slide and add specific notes to the speaker notes at the bottom. The AI suggestions launched at the bottom of the slide include a more action-oriented or informative headline that concisely summarizes the benefits of deck support. deck.support and the Golden Age of Entrepreneurship Chris discusses the importance of remembering who the audience is for a slide presentation to ensure clarity and comprehension. The process of building the tool involved a quick analysis of the potential of Google Slides, and hiring a developer with expertise in Google Apps Scripts. The augmented intelligence provided by AI tools allowed him to understand the process of development and make informed decisions. Chris believes that AI is a gold standard in the field of entrepreneurship, as it provides a demystification of the process, making it easier and more enjoyable for the audience. He also mentions the importance of considering the audience's needs and the potential for advancements in the field. Chris and Dimitri built a roadmap using PowerPoint and AI to understand the purpose of their software. They were guided by 17 years of BCG experience and were familiar with existing tools and their limitations.  Developing, Testing, and Pricing deck.support Chris discusses the development process of their product, which took about six months. The first step was identifying how to communicate what they wanted in terms of tools and functionality, and identifying the limitations of current tools on the market. They used chat GPT to evaluate different jurisdictions for incorporation, such as Delaware, Ireland, Dubai, and Singapore. They landed on Singapore, as it was the best place for two international people selling software. Chat GPT helped them evaluate different options and run simulations of fees, given different revenue levels and currency flows. Each section of the tool became its own block, and they tested each one before launching it in the App Store. They learned that the most valuable aspect of the product was the user-centered approach and understanding how it would be used and integrated into workflows.They currently offer the product for free on the Google workspace marketplace, but the alignment tools will be paid for. The core version of export will have an annual fee of $50 per year, and charts will be an additional feature that people can pay for. The pricing for charts is currently around $300 a year, and efficient elements will be around $100 a year. The overall value of the product is expected to be around $150 a year for charts. AI Tools for PowerPoint The conversation turns to AI tools for PowerPoint and their potential to create specific slides for consultants and professionals. Most people don't want someone to create the entire pitch deck for them, but rather just insert a slide according to their template. Chris believes that AI tools are still a few years away from being able to do this and that the need for AI tools will diminish as knowledge professionals have a better understanding of how to visually bring a presentation to life. He states that AI tools can be useful for high school students and sales professionals, but they may fall short when it comes to the nuance of consulting work. He talks about the limitations of AI models in generating creative campaigns. One of the biggest challenges is their inability to replicate the same character over and over again. AI models today are better at starting from a link sheet and bringing consistency from users on a micro level. The Process of Getting a deck.support into Google App Store Chris shares that getting a product into the Google App Store was painful, as there is a process that requires submission to the Google Workplace Marketplace for approval. This process verifies the app's security, consistency with best practices, and that there is no attempt to steal user information. The challenge was navigating two different teams within Google, all of whom seemed to be based on different sides of the world. The process lasted about six weeks, with cryptic emails asking for approvals and cryptic questions asking for help. Chat GPT helped identify opportunities to fix issues within the Google Cloud console. Security Measures for deck.support When it comes to security, Chris explains that the tool has no ability to see how users use the tool or what buttons they push. Once CRM capabilities are turned on, they capture email addresses and user accounts, but only the slide being viewed is transmitted to Open AI. Open AI returns this information consistent with the Terms of Service. Chris emphasizes the importance of enterprise security, as they have completed an enterprise security assessment for a consulting firm that uses Google Slides. They have documented that there is no image or information capture in the tool, only knowing who a user is, their active account, and the right to press the Layout button.Chris also talks about the use of Google App Script for the Google Slide extension, which ensures compliance with SOC 2 compliance. This means that the tool is not covered by the Google Workplace sandbox, which means it doesn't have to pay $40,000 for its own SOC 2 compliance. Chris explains that the tool lives in the cloud, not on its own. Users can download the tool from the deck.support website. Chris also mentions the limitations of Google Slides extensions, which require users to click on the "Open sidebar" button every time. To fix this, an App Script can be added to Google Slides, allowing users to click on the "Open sidebar" button when opening the slide. The Script can be found in the Extensions menu within Google Slides.  Timestamps: 02:20: Overview of deck.support and Its Features  36:30: Detailed Features of deck.support  36:45: Development and Building of deck.support  36:59: Challenges and Future Plans for deck.support  38:50: User Experience and Availability of deck.support  Links: Website: https://deck.support/ Marketplace Listing for downloads: https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/deck.support_pro_tools_for_google_slides/128114120858 Unleashed is produced by Umbrex, which has a mission of connecting independent management consultants with one another, creating opportunities for members to meet, build relationships, and share lessons learned.

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! This week's episode is the recording of my presentation at NSUOCO, titled "Top 10 Tips for (Financial) Success for Optometrists."   Over the course of the year, I'm privileged to present in front of a variety of optometry schools' private practice clubs and classes. The purpose of the presentation is to help ODs understand the ABCs and 123s of personal finance and how to better understand the business of optometry so that, upon graduation, they are able to make educated and informed decisions about their money. Given that the content and lessons are pretty evergreen, I thought this would be a good "refresher" episode for listeners of the show—young and "seasoned" alike. Even though you won't have the Powerpoint deck to follow along, I tried to present the content in a way that would transfer well to the podcast. Special shout out to my producer Kyle for working his magic with the audio as well as Corbin Lill, a student at NSUOCO, for having me. If you are either in school or connected to a school and would like me to do a similar presentation, please email me at podcast@integratedpwm.com.   As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today's conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center. While there, be sure to subscribe to our monthly “planning life on purpose” newsletter that's filled with tips and ideas to help you plan your best life, on purpose. You can also set up a Triage conversation to learn a little bit more about how we serve in the capacity of a personal and professional CFO: helping OD practice owners around the country reduce their tax bill, proactively manage cash flow, and make prudent investment decisions both in and out of their practice to ultimately help them live their best life on purpose.

 Tech Productivity - AZ TRT S06 EP06 (267) 3-23-2025              What We Learned This Week ChatGPT is an AI chatbot, developed by OpenAI, that can engage in human-like conversations ChatGPT can read docs, edit docs, answer Qs, and transcribe Elevenreader – app that turns any document into audio Google Drive – office suite of tools for spreadsheets, docs, powerpoints, & more Todoist – task management program Pocket – web research tool that saves & organizes links   Guest: Denver Nowicz, President - Wealth For Lifehttp://wealthforlife.net/ Denver is an advisor with nearly 20 years experience working with clients in investments and insurance, designing retirement plans with a combo of both. He takes us through different strategies for clients to get the best allocations for their money over the long term. It is the Combo Strategy of both Offense and Defense, the synergy of the mix, not ‘All or Nothing'.     Notes: Seg 1  https://openai.com/index/chatgpt/   ChatGPT is an AI chatbot, developed by OpenAI, that can engage in human-like conversations and generate various text formats, including articles, emails, and code, based on the prompts it receives.  Denver uses ChatGPT daily for both business and personal use You can have live interaction with ChatGPT where you can actually talk with the AI program using a microphone  Example of this, Denver had to fix his boat motor and suspected something was wrong with the fuel line. Able to turn on the camera on his computer to show it to ChatGPT who helped diagnose the problem in real time. Another example is you can use ChatGPT for cooking to help with recipes It's important to understand how you frame the questions to ChatGPT, to get the best answer as possible. ChatGPT can create work docs and summary docs. Common use is as an editor to what you write.  Denver uses ChatGPT to help with his weekly newsletter. He will voice text into his phone the Notes. Then he copies those notes into the AI program and it helps create and write the newsletter. Then Denver can make edits on it. Can also upload previous docs that you have written, so the AI can figure out your writing style, and philosophy. Then the AI can write future docs in your style. The speed of AI is amazing where it literally saves you time and makes you more efficient.  AI program can even read PDFs and screenshots, or you can give it a link to a video and it can pull the audio transcript. AI can be used as a teacher to discover new things, and even as a psychologist. There is a tech arms race going on in AI with programs like Microsoft Copilot, Google Bard, ChatGPT, and now Deepseek.   Seg 2 Productivity apps recommended by Denver  Many of the apps he uses are free or a very low cost, here are some he likes: Elevenreader AI voice app Turns any document into an audiobook.

Daybell Trial-Flipping the Narrative: Burger King, Cell Phones, and a Suspicious Timeline If Lori Vallow really left the house after Charles Vallow was shot, why was she at a Burger King drive-thru 42 minutes before the 911 call? That was the first red flag for Detective Ariel Werther. When he started digging into the July 11, 2019 shooting of Charles Vallow, it didn't take long to find cracks in Lori's story. She claimed she left the house after Charles was killed, took her son JJ to school, and went about her day. But Werther, who's well-trained in mapping GPS and cell phone data, wasn't buying the timeline. He reviewed Charles' T-Mobile GPS data, which showed his device was still pinging. That data led Werther to believe Lori hadn't gone to a CVS, like she originally claimed, but to a Walgreens instead. After calling seven CVS locations and turning up nothing, Werther rang up Walgreens, asked if anyone matching Lori's description had come in to buy flip-flops, and—bingo—got a hit. Surveillance footage and a receipt confirmed she was there. But the biggest problem was still the fast food stop. Werther checked the surveillance footage at Burger King. He confirmed the timestamp was accurate and watched as Lori pulled through the drive-thru in a red rental car at exactly 7:54 a.m. Yet, the 911 call reporting Charles' shooting wasn't made until 8:36 a.m.—a 42-minute gap that Lori had conveniently glossed over. That gap grew even more suspicious when Werther ran the drive time from the Burger King to JJ's school and back. Given Arizona traffic, it would've been nearly impossible to make that loop in 12 minutes. Werther also obtained Charles' hotel receipt from Tru Hilton and the key card Lori claimed to have found in his wallet. He and Detective Moffatt later searched the hotel room, collecting Charles' laptop and other personal items, which were logged by the Chandler Police Department. Meanwhile, cell phone records from Lori, Charles, and Alex Cox were subpoenaed. Werther compiled a detailed PowerPoint showing GPS data from Charles' phone the morning he was killed. It painted a picture of movement—where the phone had been, what times it had pinged—useful, but not conclusive. After all, GPS shows where the phone is, not necessarily who's carrying it. Still, the electronic trail, plus the physical receipts and surveillance footage, started to stitch together a timeline that didn't align with Lori's version of events. As all of this played out in court, Lori herself took the unusual step of questioning Det. Ynclan during the trial. She asked about her own behavior, whether she was cooperative, if she handed over Charles' phone willingly (she did), and why she had two phones at the time. She even asked about whether stressful situations make people thirsty—an apparent effort to justify why she ordered two bottles of water at Burger King after a supposed fatal domestic altercation. Ynclan noted Lori's calm demeanor as “odd.” Her husband had just been shot. Her brother pulled the trigger. Her kids were there. Yet Lori was described as “chattering” in the car, more like someone heading to brunch than leaving the scene of a homicide. The defense tried to draw attention to minor details—how hot the Arizona pavement was in July, whether walking barefoot would be uncomfortable, and how long the altercation lasted. But it all felt like noise. Because the signal was clear: Lori Vallow said she left the house after the shooting. The evidence says she hit up Burger King 42 minutes before calling 911. #LoriVallow #CharlesVallow #TrueCrime #CellPhoneData Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

He confirmed the timestamp was accurate and watched as Lori pulled through the drive-thru in a red rental car at exactly 7:54 a.m. Yet, the 911 call reporting Charles' shooting wasn't made until 8:36 a.m.—a 42-minute gap that Lori had conveniently glossed over. That gap grew even more suspicious when Werther ran the drive time from the Burger King to JJ's school and back. Given Arizona traffic, it would've been nearly impossible to make that loop in 12 minutes. Werther also obtained Charles' hotel receipt from Tru Hilton and the key card Lori claimed to have found in his wallet. He and Detective Moffatt later searched the hotel room, collecting Charles' laptop and other personal items, which were logged by the Chandler Police Department. Meanwhile, cell phone records from Lori, Charles, and Alex Cox were subpoenaed. Werther compiled a detailed PowerPoint showing GPS data from Charles' phone the morning he was killed. It painted a picture of movement—where the phone had been, what times it had pinged—useful, but not conclusive. After all, GPS shows where the phone is, not necessarily who's carrying it. Still, the electronic trail, plus the physical receipts and surveillance footage, started to stitch together a timeline that didn't align with Lori's version of events. As all of this played out in court, Lori herself took the unusual step of questioning Det. Ynclan during the trial. She asked about her own behavior, whether she was cooperative, if she handed over Charles' phone willingly (she did), and why she had two phones at the time. She even asked about whether stressful situations make people thirsty—an apparent effort to justify why she ordered two bottles of water at Burger King after a supposed fatal domestic altercation. Ynclan noted Lori's calm demeanor as “odd.” Her husband had just been shot. Her brother pulled the trigger. Her kids were there. Yet Lori was described as “chattering” in the car, more like someone heading to brunch than leaving the scene of a homicide. The defense tried to draw attention to minor details—how hot the Arizona pavement was in July, whether walking barefoot would be uncomfortable, and how long the altercation lasted. But it all felt like noise. Because the signal was clear: Lori Vallow said she left the house after the shooting. The evidence says she hit up Burger King 42 minutes before calling 911. #LoriVallow #CharlesVallow #TrueCrime #CellPhoneData Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

“The more you can adjust your communication to fit your customer, the more effective you'll be.” – Rob Broadhead In this episode of Building Better Developers, part of the Building Better Businesses season, hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche explore customer communication strategies. From tone and timing to tools and follow-up processes, they share real stories and practical tips that every developer and entrepreneur should know. Tone and Timing: Keys to Effective Customer Communication Strategies One of the top takeaways? Tone matters. Even when following up on an unanswered email, how you phrase things can shape how your customer perceives you. Rob cautions against saying things like, “As I said in my last email…”, which can feel accusatory. Instead, assume the best: maybe the message got lost, or perhaps they're dealing with their storms (literal or figurative). ⏱ Timing tip: If you don't get a response within 24–48 hours, follow up—but kindly. A quick “just checking in” keeps communication open and positive. Customer Communication Strategies Start with the Right Tools “Don't force your communication tools on your customers. Find out what works best for them.” – Michael Meloche Different customers prefer different channels. Some want a phone call, others prefer text, while many prefer email. Your job? Adapt to their preferences. This can be a game-changer in building trust for developers and entrepreneurs juggling multiple platforms.

We are joined by Colin Bryar, a former Amazon executive and co-author of the outstanding book, "Working Backwards:  Insights, Stories, and Secrets from Inside Amazon".  How did Amazon grow from a tiny start-up to one of the most successful companies on the planet?  What best practices did Amazon leverage to facilitate this success?  Colin was Jeff Bezos' "shadow" (Jeff's Chief of Staff") during those early days and talks to CSI Chat about: - How was Amazon able to hire the best and the brightest employees?  Colin explains Amazon's "Bar Raiser" hiring approach and how it was leveraged to hire 1,000's of Amazon's top employees.   - Amazon has banned the use of PowerPoint within their organization for most meeting presentations.  Why did Amazon ban PowerPoint and what format does Amazon now use for most presentations?   - How has "thinking long-term" and "focusing on the customer" resulted in some of Amazon's life changing products and services including "Amazon Prime" and "Amazon Web Hosting"? End of the day, Colin explains how nearly all of Amazon's best practices can be leveraged by all corporations to facilitate their growth and success.    

Was entsteht, wenn man PreSales eine echte Bühne gibt und das Ganze mit Zirkus-Flair, Workshops ohne PowerPoint und einer Portion Wahnsinn kombiniert?

Warum sich Vorbereitung lohnt, wie aus Sessions echte Erlebnisse werden und was PreSales mit Süßkartoffelpommes zu tun hat, du wirst es nur erfahren, wenn du rein hörst.

We are finally finishing this book! Magnus gets to meet his dad, who sounds hot. We get the big reveal of this book -- X is actually Odin, and was this whole time. Manasa doesn't like this plotline. She also got X confused with Halfborn for half of this book. Erin sees herself in Odin's love for a good PowerPoint. He walks us through the prophecy line by line (probably with crappy PowerPoint animation). Magnus meets up with Annabeth again, and then the book ends on quite the cliffhanger, where we see Randolph and Loki scheming. We discuss our overall thoughts on this book (hint: they're positive!) and wrap up with some final thunder bolt questions for Sword of Summer.

That is why I don't make it a giant moneymaking endeavor. I do this from the heart because I never forget how bad it felt to be unemployed and how awful every day was until I knew what my next job was. That said, I cannot believe when someone is offered free help from someone who has been doing it for as long as I have that they would ignore my invite and not come to the event. All I will say is here is an invite to my next event and if you are a#jobseeker you should come because something I say will help you to get in next great opportunity. It's different for every person, but something will resonate. With all of the people being mistreated and ghosted and punched in the face on this platform by people who have no interest in helping, I offer all I can give you to help you get back on your feet.   Anthony Hines http://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonyhines (Please follow me on LinkedIn to get even more access to my items.)

When your sales territory spans thousands of square miles, and your customers are highly technical decision-makers, you need more than a few cold calls and sales brochures to break through. For Wes Murray, Regional Sales Manager at Hayward Flow Control, that “more” has been LinkedIn and video content. Like many of us, Wes saw a shift in how engineers and specifiers engaged during the pandemic. With travel and in-person meetings on pause, he ramped up his use of LinkedIn—not just to create awareness but to educate.And it worked. When presenting at lunch-and-learns or industry events, Wes started hearing things like:“I loved that post you shared last week.”“That video with your kids—so relatable!”Often this feedback came from people who never interacted with his posts. That's when it clicked: visibility and familiarity were paying off in real conversations.Video isn't always easy. Wes shared the many real-life challenges of filming at home—chaotic dogs, noisy kids, desert wind. But the results are worth it. Video gives people a feel for who you are, how you communicate, and what you stand for—all key ingredients for building trust with skeptical technical audiences.Wes is quick to admit he's not a professional marketer. And yet, his content works because it's authentic. He blends technical insights with glimpses into his personal life—fishing trips with his kids, behind-the-scenes looks at product installs, even the occasional chainsaw cameo.The result?Content that makes people feel like they know him before he ever steps foot on-site.“I want people to have a general idea of who I am and what I'm about. That familiarity helps me earn their time and attention.”Wes had some advice for both sales and marketing professionals.For Marketers: Create tools your sales team can actually use. From videos to application images to PowerPoint decks, think about how content can help a salesperson open a conversation or strengthen credibility.Think beyond spec sheets. Help salespeople connect—not just inform.For Salespeople: Master your message. Content creation sharpens communication. Even if you never hit “publish,” the act of writing or recording helps you prepare for high-stakes conversations.Lean into your strengths. Wes isn't trying to be polished—he's trying to be real. And that makes all the difference.ResourcesConnect with Wes on LinkedInConnect with Wendy on LinkedInLearn more about Hayward Flow Control

This episode is a little different in two ways. First, host Mike Konrad recorded it not in his studio but at the SMTA Pan Pacific Strategic Electronics Symposium, affectionately known as PanPac, in beautiful Maui, Hawaii. Each year, Mike records a Reliability Matters podcast at PanPac. Normally, the format of the show is to ask questions and the guests provide answers. On this episode however, the guests do all the talking. The theme of this episode is Electronics: Down Memory Lane and a Vision for the Future. The guests on this episode share their view of the history of electronics from three different perspectives: Dr. Ron Lasky, Dartmouth College Dr. John Evans, Auburn University Dr. Tom Duval, Auburn University. They share their perspectives on the history of the electronics industry in presentation format. This episode contains three short PowerPoint presentations, which can be viewed in the video version of this podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlDYgZ6Hv6w

In this insightful podcast, Phil  interviews expert maths consultant Rob Vingerhoets about the four mathematical proficiencies that form the foundation of effective mathematics education in Australia. Rob explains that these proficiencies—fluency, reasoning, understanding, and problem solving—are often misunderstood or overlooked despite being fundamental to the Australian Curriculum.Rob passionately argues that these proficiencies are "the thing" in mathematics education, not just supplementary elements. He clarifies that fluency extends beyond knowing multiplication tables to include number sense and articulating mathematical thinking. Reasoning involves justifying and explaining mathematical approaches, while understanding requires grasping concepts rather than rote memorisation. Problem solving is the application of mathematical knowledge to varied situations.Rob mentions a potential fifth proficiency some educators discuss: productive disposition, which relates to student motivation and engagement with mathematics. He emphasises that high-quality mathematical tasks should incorporate multiple proficiencies simultaneously, creating rich learning experiences that engage students.The conversation highlights how teachers can audit their lessons against these proficiencies. Rob suggests that open-ended tasks naturally accommodate different proficiency levels and allow for differentiation. He provides an example of transforming a closed question (12 + 13 = 25) into an open one (what two numbers add to 25?), demonstrating how this simple shift creates opportunities for deeper learning.Rob shares his experience in a Prep-2 classroom using the "three cookie challenge," where young children naturally engage with division and fractions through a meaningful context. This illustrates that even very young students can reason mathematically when presented with appropriate tasks, challenging the notion that certain mathematical concepts should be reserved for older students.Throughout the conversation, Rob emphasises that worksheet-based approaches and excessive PowerPoint use often fail to develop these essential proficiencies, advocating instead for rich, engaging tasks that promote authentic mathematical thinking.RESOURCESRead the blog hereJOIN TEACHIFIC NOW AND SAVE!Join Teachific  today.

Remember, Over the last 14 years, I have done everything I can to help as many hashtag#jobseekers as possible via Power Point presentations, documents , speaking engagements and now LinkedIn presentations that LinkedIn promotes for me. I also, whenever possible, scroll down my feed and every time I see a person that is hashtag#opentowork, I drop an invite to my next hashtag#LinkedInLive event or if I am not having one my hashtag#YouTube page that has hundreds of videos and audio events. I know that I have helped thousands of people in some way to get out of the canyon called hashtag#Unemployment and back into the job world. I could've charged a lot of money to a lot of people over the years because my stuff works and it works fast if you are someone that goes and attacks challenges. I don't charge people a lot of money because they need their money to eat and pay their rent and provide for their family when they are unemployed because they don't know when that nightmare will end. That is why I don't make it a giant moneymaking endeavor. I do this from the heart because I never forget how bad it felt to be unemployed and how awful every day was until I knew what my next job was. That said, I cannot believe when someone is offered free help from someone who has been doing it for as long as I have that they would ignore my invite and not come to the event. All I will say is here is an invite to my next event and if you are a hashtag#jobseeker you should come because something I say will help you to get in next great opportunity. It's different for every person, but something will resonate. With all of the people being mistreated and ghosted and punched in the face on this platform by people who have no interest in helping, I offer all I can give you to help you get back on your feet.   Anthony Hines http://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonyhines    

 When your sales territory spans thousands of square miles, and your customers are highly technical decision-makers, you need more than a few cold calls and sales brochures to break through. For Wes Murray, Regional Sales Manager at Hayward Flow Control, that “more” has been LinkedIn and video content. Like many of us, Wes saw a shift in how engineers and specifiers engaged during the pandemic. With travel and in-person meetings on pause, he ramped up his use of LinkedIn—not just to create awareness but to educate.And it worked. When presenting at lunch-and-learns or industry events, Wes started hearing things like:“I loved that post you shared last week.”“That video with your kids—so relatable!”Often this feedback came from people who never interacted with his posts. That's when it clicked: visibility and familiarity were paying off in real conversations.Video isn't always easy. Wes shared the many real-life challenges of filming at home—chaotic dogs, noisy kids, desert wind. But the results are worth it. Video gives people a feel for who you are, how you communicate, and what you stand for—all key ingredients for building trust with skeptical technical audiences.Wes is quick to admit he's not a professional marketer. And yet, his content works because it's authentic. He blends technical insights with glimpses into his personal life—fishing trips with his kids, behind-the-scenes looks at product installs, even the occasional chainsaw cameo.The result?Content that makes people feel like they know him before he ever steps foot on-site.“I want people to have a general idea of who I am and what I'm about. That familiarity helps me earn their time and attention.”Wes had some advice for both sales and marketing professionals.For Marketers: Create tools your sales team can actually use. From videos to application images to PowerPoint decks, think about how content can help a salesperson open a conversation or strengthen credibility.Think beyond spec sheets. Help salespeople connect—not just inform.For Salespeople: Master your message. Content creation sharpens communication. Even if you never hit “publish,” the act of writing or recording helps you prepare for high-stakes conversations.Lean into your strengths. Wes isn't trying to be polished—he's trying to be real. And that makes all the difference.ResourcesConnect with Wes on LinkedInConnect with Wendy on LinkedInLearn more about Hayward Flow Control

And I'm delighted to be joined by Laurie Smith, who I'm thinking this is gonna be an interesting conversation because Laurie is a soulful speaking coach. Now if that doesn't sound like the most interesting conversation you're gonna have today, I don't know what is. Laurie is, somebody who helps visionaries, empaths, people who are on a soul driven vision to share their magic, share their story on stages, big, small, podcasts, etcetera. So I'm really looking forward to hearing Laurie's stories and Laurie's, advice. And welcome to It's Not Rocket Science 5 Questions Over Coffee, Laurie.Lauri Smith [00:01:12]:Thank you so much, Stuart. I'm so excited to be here with you today having this conversation.Stuart Webb [00:01:18]:Well, let's get into it. Let's start by speaking about those those visionaries, those empaths, those those people who are on that soul centered, journey, and how you how you how they how they are trying to reach what they're trying to do.Lauri Smith [00:01:34]:Well, the thing that can sort of steer them off course is they're wanting to speak in a way that is authentic, wanting to speak in a way that has an impact and transforms the vibe in the room, whether that's a TikTok or a TED Talk. And a lot of the mainstream speaking solutions out there are putting them in a box that was created in different waves of the industrial era. That's one way of speaking, one way of gesturing so that it's creating sort of a mask that doesn't feel like it fits them. And sometimes as a result of that, they go into those rooms and they feel the dissonance and they feel like there's nothing that can help them, or they go into those rooms and they they hide their true selves and they try to fit into the mask or the mold that they're being given as what a leader or a change maker quote, unquote, should be. ThatStuart Webb [00:02:37]:Should be.Lauri Smith [00:02:37]:It's supporting this era that we're now in where people really need to be authentic and to be in alignment with themselves and their 1 in 8,000,000,000 way of showing up.Stuart Webb [00:02:52]:And and and how have they tried to address this before they come across somebody like you, Laurie? What are the what are the things they they tempted with, you know, presumably is everything from speaking in an inauthentic way through to not speaking at all.Lauri Smith [00:03:06]:Yeah. Speaking in in that inauthentic way that they think they should. So, they might try to be hyper intelligent in a left brained way when that's not fully their that's not really their true inner radiance, or they might someone might have told them that they needed to be peppier, or that they needed to work harder or be funny and make the audience laugh and they might have gone to places like toastmasters and not not felt an alignment with that. They might have decided, I'm not a speaker. I'm not a leader, so they're not doing it like you said. Some people have gone to solutions like yoga and mindfulness, and on their own, they're trying to take the wisdom from yoga and mindfulness and having it translate onto the stage. A lot of them will spend a lot of time creating the PowerPoint, trying to come up with the script, the what am I going to say so that they've got the whole entire thing mapped out moment by moment, and they're essentially reading because they think that saying that there is an absolute perfect thing to say and that saying it is gonna get them the impact that they're looking for when it really isn't. It's much more effective to have an outline and to get up from your chair unless you're actually preventing presenting from your chair like I am right now.Lauri Smith [00:04:46]:To get up on your feet, so to speak, and to practice out loud just like a basketball player will practice their free throws again and again and again so that when they go into the game they can make the shot in the high stakes circumstances of the game rather than just thinking about the free throw.Stuart Webb [00:05:08]:Yeah. I often talk to leaders that I work with about important presentations, and many of them, like you have said, are the sort of person that will have a a PowerPoint deck of 50 slides and just put them up and read them. And so often I turn around and say, well, how many times have you actually practiced that? And I'll get practice. I didn't get it until 2 minutes before you start. Yeah. And and I've often said to them, you know, the thing is you should have it 2, 3 days before and get to know it, and then stand in the room where you're actually going to give the speech so that you're used to the place where you're gonna do it. So you're used to the site because it will change, and practice to not get it right, but fail to get it wrong. You know, I'm a I I I I sing when, in the, on on evenings, and we we compete.Stuart Webb [00:06:02]:And and the idea is that we don't sing and get it keep getting going until we get it right. We keep going until we can't get it wrong. You don't forget words because they're ingrained. And that's what speaking has to be as well sometimes. It has to be something which is just coming out of your soul. Isn't it?Lauri Smith [00:06:19]:Yeah. And with speaking, I think of it a lot like Saturday night live, where for Saturday night live, they create a thing, and then they've got a list of scenes and moments that they wanna hit in the scenes backstage and then when they go to do it live, it's semi scripted so they can do it fresh in the moment and speakers, they know their stuff more than they believe they do and they need to practice that structured improv enough to look down, see a bullet point, and know what do I wanna say with this bullet point? And what do I wanna say in the next bullet point? And it can be their same messaging, the thing that they know really deeply and are passionate about and slightly different every single time.Stuart Webb [00:07:13]:Yes. Yeah. So that you hit that audience connection, don't you?Lauri Smith [00:07:16]:Yeah. Absolutely.Stuart Webb [00:07:18]:I think you've got a very valuable, piece of, free advice that you're you're offering, which I'm showing on screen now, which is, voice hyphenmatches.comforward/sorryforward/podcast. Tell us what what we'll find there, Lori, and and how it can help.Lauri Smith [00:07:37]:That is the Soulful Speaking podcast. When you go to that site, you'll get to listen to the podcast for free. A quiz will pop up that you can take that will tell you which mask you're using and hiding behind, probably unconsciously, and then there's a whole bunch of resources and tips that are gonna come back after that. That's the the free free offer to start moving forward. And, I think you also wanted a tidbit of advice that they could put into action right away.Stuart Webb [00:08:11]:That would be great.Lauri Smith [00:08:13]:Yeah. The the advice that I would give to people is to set an intention for what you want the audience to experience emotionally or energetically. And it's not something like I want them to like me. That's an inner critic driven thing and with the intention we're trying to take the reins away from the inner critic and give it back to that highest most confident part of yourself. So it might be something like I want to give the audience hope. If you're going into a networking meeting instead of thinking I hope they hire me or I hope I don't screw up. I hope I don't say the wrong thing. Those are all soul suckers trying to protect us.Lauri Smith [00:08:57]:I'd like to give the audience a glimmer of hope either for themselves or for a friend they've got that is struggling. It might be something like I wanna see people expanding or opening as if they're opening their heart which is a little bit more of an energetic or a physical thing and when we do that instead of looking for what might go wrong and then that becoming a self fulfilling prophecy we're connecting with that soul driven mission that we're here to do and then aligning with, a mile marker of that and we'll start to notice shifts toward people feeling more hope rather than shifts toward, oh, I think I might said I think I just said the wrong thing.Stuart Webb [00:09:50]:That's a really wonderful tip. That's a really wonderful tip. And it it's you're right. We all need to sometimes learn to silence that inner critic, don't we, and take away the oxygen.Lauri Smith [00:10:00]:Yeah.Stuart Webb [00:10:01]:What is it? What is it, Laurie, that got you, to become the soulful speaker? Was there a particular moment in in your career or your your journey? Was there a a book, a course, something which sort of took you from where you are to where from where you were to where you are now?Lauri Smith [00:10:17]:The the key there have been a lot of different bread crumbs along the way that I followed, and the key that I talk about a lot was in an acting class that I took. Many people think that acting is about lying. It's actually quite the opposite. It's about authenticity and mirroring things back to humanity. And in my favorite acting class ever, there was an exercise one day where I was up there by myself instead of being up there with a colleague or 3. And I kept pulling myself together between these little bits of the exercise, very similar to these masks that industrial speaking is consciously or unconsciously asking us to wear. And Richard, my teacher, stopped the exercise and said, whatever that is that you're doing in between, stop doing that. And I said, I'm not that comfortable having everyone's eyes on me.Lauri Smith [00:11:21]:And he took off his glasses and he said, well, then you've picked a strange set of careers for yourself. You're an actor, a teacher, a speaker, a leader. Part of you wants this. In fact, part of you knows you're meant to be here. And that really struck me. And even my protectors and inner critics deeply trusted him, so it was like my heart and soul knew he was right. And because I trusted him and the space that he held, I jumped back into the exercise and was actively releasing those masks, and it felt like decades of protection were melting away in a kind of combination of fire and ice and when the exercise was over I looked out at my classmates and I felt completely in sync with them. I felt like I could see and feel what kind of a day they were each having.Lauri Smith [00:12:18]:And I now say it was my first moment of being in flow or in oneness that lasted beyond the sport or beyond the acting. I had had them while acting before. I had had them while playing basketball in high school where time just doesn't seem to exist. And when it's over, people ask you about a certain play or a moment, and and you're you kind of don't know what they're talking about because you were so in it. And what I realized from that is that our charisma, our one of a kind presence comes from allowing ourselves to be seen while also holding the room in kind of an energetic hug. And that's at the root of how I work with speakers today. It's the same way that that acting instructor worked with me. Instead of thinking that you need to reach for something other than what you are, It's about letting go of everything that the world has told you that you should be and then learning how to expand your energy from there.Stuart Webb [00:13:32]:That's a wonderful story, and I think we all we all need a Richard. Don't we? We all need we all need that somebody who looks at you and tells you how it is and helps you to uncover the truth behind what you're hiding. And I know I have had Richards in my life who have been exactly the same, not with acting, but with with with other things. Yeah. Laurie Laurie, there must be one question that I have not yet asked, which you are really itching, witching an issue that I could could ask you. So what is what is the one question that you think I should be asking? And, obviously, when you ask it, you need to give us the answer.Lauri Smith [00:14:15]:Yeah. That's always the rub, isn't it? I I lead networking groups, and I will come up with great questions and forget that I have to answer them. The the question that popped into my mind when you asked that was theStuart Webb [00:14:28]:why. Mhmm.Lauri Smith [00:14:30]:Why am IStuart Webb [00:14:30]:Love the question.Lauri Smith [00:14:32]:Yeah. I and the short answer is it's my calling. And the longer part of that that I that I've kind of lived into or I am living into is I believe that speaking soulfully is actually part of raising consciousness on the planet. That is the biggest why. So the more soulfully our leaders and change makers can speak, the more it's gonna have a ripple effect. I see there's that image that we also in, like, a science class of evolution of humans, where they're hunched over, little bit taller. And to me, the way most of the western world is speaking is a generation or 2 back. It's actually not aligned with our our highest selves, our most courageous selves, and helping us to oddly, not oddly, recapture the kind of expressiveness we had as babies while marrying that to our sense of purpose or our intention or our mission as an adult.Lauri Smith [00:15:48]:Primal and presence coming together, primal and purpose coming together and creating a more resonant presence is it's it's a it's a huge thing, and it can also be paired down to tiny, small moment by moment things.Stuart Webb [00:16:06]:Brilliant. I love I love the message. I love the way that you put it. And I think you're right. We all need to, we all need to grasp those moments. We all need to find those moments. Even if we're not in front of a stage, we need to grasp them for ourselves anyway. Yeah.Stuart Webb [00:16:21]:Laurie, it's been wonderful having you speaking to us.
