Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Charelle Lans. A six-time award-winning author, motivational speaker, and business strategist known as the “business therapist.” Here's a detailed summary of the key insights and takeaways:

Howard M. Cohen, a seasoned expert in the managed service provider (MSP) sector, discusses the current state and future potential of artificial intelligence (AI) for MSPs. He highlights that while adoption rates are still low, with only a small percentage of partners and customers fully integrating agentic AI, there is a growing interest in practical applications. Cohen emphasizes the importance of moving beyond the hype surrounding AI and focusing on real business tools that can enhance service delivery and client engagement.Cohen shares insights from his experience, recalling the excitement of the early days of personal computing and drawing parallels to the current AI landscape. He notes that many discussions around AI lack depth and practical understanding, urging MSPs to seek out genuine applications that can drive results. He cites examples of MSPs successfully implementing AI solutions, such as virtual agents in boutique hotels, which demonstrate the tangible benefits of AI when applied thoughtfully.The conversation also touches on the challenges MSPs face, including data security, compliance concerns, and the need for internal expertise. Cohen argues that MSPs should take a consultative approach, engaging with clients to understand their business processes and identifying opportunities for AI integration. He believes that by focusing on practical applications and outcomes, MSPs can better position themselves in a rapidly evolving market.Finally, the discussion shifts to the implications of changing pricing models in the AI space. With a significant increase in per-use pricing among AI software companies, Cohen warns that MSPs must be prepared to define what constitutes usage and outcomes clearly. He stresses the need for MSPs to adapt their service offerings and pricing strategies to align with these new models, ensuring they can deliver value while navigating the complexities of AI integration.

I'm sure you know how the math works. You've probably sat down more than once to calculate exactly what you need to charge to make a profit. There is no problem until when it is time to say that number out loud to a client. It is then that it suddenly feels almost impossible. Belive me, it is not jut you. Here's the truth: pricing is never just about the math. You can have the most perfect spreadsheet in the world, but if your mindset isn't there, none of it matters. In this episode, we're going to talk about what's happening in that gap between knowing your numbers and actually holding them in a conversation. We'll look at why fear shows up when you raise your rates, why your brain reacts like you're in danger, and how to train yourself to move through it so quoting your price feels calm and confident. Beyond that, I also share one of my favorite tools to help you anchor your value. If you've been struggling to hold firm on your rates, or if you find yourself freezing up when you get to the money conversation, this is for you. We're going past the spreadsheets and into the psychology of pricing—because the numbers are only half the story.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: Why fear is a normal response when you raise your prices How to retrain your brain to feel safe quoting your real number The difference between math protecting your business and mindset sustaining it How to use hero metrics to speak about your value with clarity   RESOURCES:   Apply for Private Coaching: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/privatecoachingapp Enroll in Staging Business School Accelerate Track: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/accelerate Join the Staging Business School Growth Track Waitlist: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/growth Follow the Staging Business School on Instagram: www.instagram.com/stagingbusinessschool Follow Lori on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rethinkhome If you want to learn how to streamline your operations so you can grow with less stress and burnout in your staging business, enrollment is open for Staging Business School Accelerate Track.

US assembled computers, electronic components, tires, and home textiles saw very abrupt increases in price, and the proxy for profit margins expanded for sectors like clothing stores.

Kiren Sekar is the CPO of Samsara, a company that brings real-time visibility, analytics, and AI to physical operations. Before Samsara, Kiren was an early leader at Meraki, which was acquired by Cisco for $1.2B. In this episode, he walks us through Samsara's origin story: from hardware hacking in a basement to scaling a cross-industry IoT platform. He shares how early customer feedback loops led to the company's first product, why starting with the mid-market was a deliberate choice, and how Samsara kept a startup mindset even as it scaled. In this episode, we discuss: Lessons from Meraki's acquisition by Cisco How Kiren hires for intrinsic motivation Why Samsara was built for operations industries The early hardware prototype and the Cowgirl Creamery insight Building broad vs. niche from day one The shift from founder-selling to a scalable sales motion Organizing product teams around revenue vs. experience How Samsara uses LLMs and AI today What Kiren learned from longtime co-founder Sanjit Biswas Where to find Kiren: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kirensekar/ Where to find Brett: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brett-berson-9986094/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/brettberson References: Cisco: https://www.cisco.com/ Clay: https://www.clay.com/ Cowgirl Creamery: https://cowgirlcreamery.com/ IBM: https://www.ibm.com/ Meraki: https://meraki.cisco.com/ Microsoft: https://www.microsoft.com/ Salesforce: https://www.salesforce.com/ Samsara: https://www.samsara.com/ Sanjit Biswas: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sanjitbiswas/ Uber: https://www.uber.com/ Timestamps: (01:27) Meraki's growth and acquisition by Cisco (03:25) The "evaporating" exit strategy from Meraki (04:42) Identifying the IoT market gaps (07:38) The early keys to success at Samsara (09:39) What does quality mean to Kiren?

In this episode of Building Better Developers with AI, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit their earlier discussion on “Estimation Essentials” and explore how AI helps sharpen project pricing. The theme is clear: estimation is less about numbers and more about setting expectations. Developers who learn to price with confidence gain credibility, avoid stress, and build long-term client relationships. Why You Must Price With Confidence Estimation impacts far more than budgets. A clear, honest number builds trust and predictability. Vague requirements like “integrate with multiple systems” can't be priced accurately—so instead of guessing, developers must clarify scope. Saying “not enough detail to price this yet” protects both sides from disappointment. Honest estimates strengthen trust. Don't guess—clarify. Common Pitfalls When You Don't Price With Confidence The hosts highlight mistakes that derail projects: Underestimating to win a contract, then burning out. Ignoring hidden costs such as meetings, testing, and documentation. Forgetting risk buffers, leaving no room for the unexpected. Leaning on gut instinct rather than repeatable methods. By failing to price with confidence, developers risk missed deadlines, blown budgets, and damaged reputations. Frameworks to Help You Price With Confidence Rob and Michael recommend proven approaches: Bottom-up estimation – Break work into small tasks. Top-down estimation – Use data from past projects. Three-point estimation – Balance optimistic, pessimistic, and likely outcomes. Risk-first sequencing – Attack uncertain features first. These frameworks bring structure, reduce surprises, and give clients realistic options. Choosing Models That Let You Price With Confidence Pricing isn't just about numbers—it's about risk allocation. Time & Materials (T&M) – Risk stays with the client, who pays for actual work. Fixed Price – Risk shifts to the developer; scope must be crystal clear. Beware hybrid models like “T&M with caps,” which push risk onto developers without fair compensation. The key is aligning incentives so both sides win. MVP Thinking: Another Way to Price With Confidence Defining a minimum viable product (MVP) early protects the project when scope changes or budgets tighten. By locking in must-have features at the start, you can deliver value even if time or resources run short. This approach ensures clients get results and developers maintain credibility. Practical Steps to Price With Confidence Callout: Break tasks down, add a 20–30% buffer, and communicate assumptions. Follow these steps on your next project: Clarify requirements first – No assumptions left unspoken. Break into small tasks – Accurate estimates come from detail. Add buffers – Protect against risk and scope creep. Track actuals vs. estimates – Learn and refine over time. Explain assumptions – Clients trust numbers when they know the “why.” Challenge: Practice Pricing With Confidence Review your last three estimates. Where did you miss hidden costs like testing or meetings? On your next project, add a 25% buffer to that category and track whether accuracy improves. Small tweaks create more reliable pricing habits. Closing Thoughts The path to better client relationships isn't perfect numbers—it's predictable delivery. Developers who price with confidence clarify scope, tackle risks early, and communicate openly. The result? Trust, repeat business, and less stress.

Pressure on the Fed to cut interest rates couldn't be more clear, according to Rebecca Walser. That said, she believes Jerome Powell and company remain in a "rock and hard place" following Thursday's CPI data and jobless claims print. Rebecca says markets are pushing for 75bps of cuts through the end of 2025. She adds that Powell has responded to markets before, though tariffs can complicate the situation even more.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Pricing Lives: The Political Art of Measurement (Oxford UP, 2023) discusses how human lives are equated with the material, and argues that pricing lives lies at the core of the political; in fact, as in Plato or Hobbes, and in the Weberian ethics of responsibility, measurement is considered to be one of its central features. Ariel Colonomos argues that this measure relies primarily on human lives and interests, and that the material equivalence to lives is twofold. The equivalence is a double equation, as we pay for lives and we pay with lives. This double equation constitutes the measurement upon which the political equilibrium of a society depends and is thus a key constitutive part of the political. The book adopts two approaches, both with an interdisciplinary perspective: one explanatory and the other normative. First, it explains the nexus between existential goods and material goods, drawing on a detailed analysis of several case studies from contemporary politics, both domestic and international. Second, it discusses normatively the material valuation of human lives and the human value of material goods. Value attribution and the question of the material equivalent to lives are of relevance not only for political theory and philosophy, but also for sociology, history, international relations, and legal studies.

Nestled between the towering Himalayas, Bhutan offers more than just scenic vistas and ancient monasteries; it encapsulates a philosophy of travel that is radically sustainable and deeply mindful of cultural preservation.

Sari, the owner and chief strategist at Passages of Distinction, shares her insights on Bhutan's captivating allure.

With her trademark mix of honesty and encouragement, Shauna Lynn challenges entrepreneurs to stop learning everything the hard way and instead build habits, systems, and support networks that make business not just profitable but genuinely enjoyable.Tune in to hear how you can stop waiting for the “cockroaches” in your business before making the changes you already know you need.

Marty covers the Space Black color rumor and internal chip bump for the next Apple Vision Pro as reported by Zac Hall at 9to5Mac, relaying Mark Gurman's Bloomberg preview ahead of Apple's September 9 event. Primary SourceApple Vision Pro could soon have a whole new look — Zac Hall, 9to5Mac (Sept 5, 2025)https://9to5mac.com/2025/09/05/apple-vision-pro-2-space-black/  What the reporting says·       Apple has tested Space Black as a color option for the next Vision Pro.·       Expect a chip upgrade from M2 to a newer generation (M4 or possibly M5) to headline internal changes.·       External design shifts may be modest—think Apple Watch Ultra → Ultra 2—though a single head‑strap has also been rumored for comfort.·       Apple is exploring a cheaper/lighter headset and even smart glasses over the next two years (per Bloomberg's preview referenced by 9to5Mac). Why this matters·       Color as a visible “tell”: a Space Black finish could be the easiest way to spot the new model if most changes are internal.·       Performance bump: newer silicon should improve latency, video encode/decode, and multitasking headroom for spatial apps.·       Comfort cues: if Apple moves to a single strap, setup friction could drop and long-session stability could improve. What to watch for at/after Sept 9·       Any explicit mention of new Vision Pro colorways or retail images that show Space Black hardware.·       Release notes or developer guidance hinting at higher default rendering targets or new media pipelines tied to newer chips.·       Pricing moves: color alone won't move the $3,499 needle; look for hints about a lower-cost model later on. Quick takeaways·       If the look matters to you, waiting for official confirmation could make sense.·       If you prefer value, keep an eye on first‑gen promotions/refurbs once the refresh lands.·       Expect incremental hardware this round; bigger shifts may come with a lighter/cheaper model or eventual smart glasses.Follow the live stream at YouTube.com/@VisionProfiles on Monday nights at 9 PM EST or catch the video later on Youtube or audio on any pod catcher service Email: ThePodTalkNetwork@gmail.comWebsite: ThePodTalk.Net

Send us a textIn this episode of the Hello Hair Pro Podcast, Todd and Jen tackle one of the most hot-button topics in the hair industry: booth and suite rental vs. commission salons.They break down the hidden costs of going out on your own, the predatory marketing tactics some rental salon owners use, and why many stylists actually make less money renting than they would in a well-run commission salon.You'll also hear about Jen's unique apprenticeship program, how demand and merit (not time) should drive pricing, and why the future may be swinging back toward commission salons that innovate, lead with vision, and provide real support to stylists.If you've ever wondered whether renting really means “keeping all your money,” or if you're considering making the jump, this episode will give you the clarity you need.Key Takeaways:The myth of “keeping all your money” — why rental comes with major hidden costs like software, insurance, licensing, cleaning, and taxes.Predatory practices in rental salons — from targeting new grads to dangling “amenities” that erode profitability.The rental vs. commission mindset — it's less about freedom and more about whether you want to be left alone or guided.Apprenticeship success stories — why Jen's program produces stylists who can raise their prices even before they're licensed.Future industry trends — why rental is plateauing, and why well-run commission salons are primed for a comeback.Episode Timestamps:[00:00] Welcome & opening banter[00:01] Todd's “seed planting” approach to partnership and decision making[00:05] Jen celebrates Madison, her apprentice, hitting 1,500 hours[00:07] Pricing apprentices fairly: demand vs. time in the industry[00:11] Rental vs. commission: not good vs. bad, just different needs[00:13] Why “you keep all your money” is predatory marketing[00:14] The danger of targeting new grads for rental[00:16] Loneliness and stagnation in suites — why many return to community[00:18] Business basics renters MUST know: mission, vision, P&L, insurance[00:20] The importance of marketing and curating like-minded renters[00:23] Why commission salons lost ground — and how they can bounce back[00:26] The constant need to evolve in business[00:27] Hidden costs checklist: rent, licenses, equipment, insurance, software, accounting, taxes, education, and more[00:35] Commission salon advantage: stylists get to focus on creativity[00:36] Todd's renter's checklist — what to have in place before you jump[00:38] Why industry infighting (rental vs. commission) is hurting everyone[00:39] Wrapping up & newsletter inviteResources & LinksSubscribe to the 321 Pro Push Newsletter: Real business lessons, strategies, and challenges delivered weekly.Listen to more episodes: the Hello Hair Pro podcastFollow us on Instagram: @hellohairproLinks and Stuff:Our Newsletter Mentoring InquiriesFind more of our things:InstagramHello Hair Pro Website

Ever wondered if online courses are still worth it in 2025? With AI, free content everywhere and a crowded market, you might be questioning whether your audience would really pay for one.In today's episode, I chat with Sara Vezensek, who went from private chef on luxury superyachts to building her freedom-based business online. We dive into the realities of online courses, what makes them succeed (or flop), and why YOU already have a million-dollar course idea inside you.Here's what we cover:Sara's story from “golden cage” yachting life to online coaching freedomWhy online courses are still thriving in 2025 (if done right)How to figure out your course idea when you feel “not expert enough”The biggest reason most online courses fail (and how to avoid it)Pricing and mindset tips to sell with confidenceListen in to get inspired and finally take action on that course idea you've been sitting on!ABOUT SARA VEZENSEK:Sara Vezensek grew up in Slovenia, a place where the luxury yacht world wasn't even something people believed was real outside of movies. But by her early 20s, she was living it: working as a private chef on superyachts, flying private, managing million-dollar deals, and earning $10K/month. From the outside, it looked like a dream. But on the inside, she felt trapped, constantly on call, and completely disconnected from her own freedom and purpose. Now, she's an online business coach and mentor who helps ambitious women turn their lived experience into profitable, freedom-based businesses. Sara is known for helping her clients package their brilliance into high-impact offers, shift their money mindset, and finally stop trading time for money. She's bold, real, and passionate about showing women how to build a business that actually supports the life they want.CONNECT WITH SARA:Website: www.saravezcoach.comFREE offers: https://sara-vezensek.mykajabi.com/freedownloadshereInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/saravezensek/Intro 0:00Interview 1:18Wrap Up 42:08Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/R5dHVO7fRnkRead on the Blog: http://whitedeer.com.au/ep230/WORK WITH JACQUI:// DIY Design My Biz: The best course for business owners DIYing their own brand and graphics in Canva.

PJ hears from Michael who thinks the comments are not fair to the hotel trade Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Our testers put the new reMarkable Paper Pro Move digital notebook through it's paces. Seem more about the device here. reMarkable Paper Pro Move digital notebook reviewed Our testers liked the previous, larger sized version of the tablet, so they were enthusiastic about getting their hands on this product. They pulled out the device, noted it's change in size, and quickly cracked on with putting it through it's paces. First time around the block, their response was succinct, it is great, or rather it is smaller, handier to move around with them, but that is it for now. It is just as good as it was before, but more portable. They happily played around with it, and reported that they would happily continue to use it. Since the testers had their time on the device, it seems that there are new features, which can be unlocked, perhaps as an upgrade for new users, so it seems like we will need to do a second 2.0 review, once we get our testers to assess these extra features. Meantime, several of the team have commented that they have seen ads for the reMarkable product family in a variety of good, high profile media outlets. This would suggest that the company is gearing up to reach more eyeballs via a higher level of advertising and promotion. The challenge, and opportunity for reMarkable may well be simply about getting the word out there, as the product seems to be in a good place now, and it is more about getting more people using it. The company seems to have a positive approach to sustainability and a light footprint on the planet, so it will be interesting to see how things progress for this Norwegian company. Their website has a good, and informative section on their approach to sustainability, and we have included an excerpt below to give you a sense of how they are aiming to making a deeper dive and more transparent approach to this side of things. It could be an interesting blue print going forwards for sure. More about the reMarkable Paper Pro Move The 7.3-inch digital notebook has been designed for work that happens anytime, anywhere, and with anyone. It slips easily into a bag or jacket pocket, perfect for working professionals whose jobs take them out of the office. Existing ways of capturing ideas on the go all have their drawbacks. Paper is hard to organise, tricky to share, and easy to lose. Balancing laptops on knees can be uncomfortable, and when meeting someone, the big screen immediately gets in the way of collaboration. And on our phones, our attention can be hijacked by endless scrolling and social media. After listening closely to users, reMarkable learned that many wanted the same distraction- free experience of its other paper tablets, just in a smaller size. The idea? For working professionals to bring their workspace with them and do their best thinking - wherever they go. "reMarkable Paper Pro Move is a new, flexible option for capturing your thoughts," said Phil Hess, CEO of reMarkable. "It's big enough to hold your work, yet small enough to not get in the way. Whether you're meeting at a conference, airport, or café, you're able to be fully in the moment during your conversation." Pricing and availability reMarkable Paper Pro Move is available to order today on remarkable.com and rolling out through selected reseller partners. On remarkable.com, it comes bundled with a Marker (£399) or Marker Plus (£439). For a discount, add a Book Folio in polymer weave, Mosaic weave, or premium leather. New reMarkable users get a 100-day free Connect trial. After the trial, Connect costs £2.99/mo. Cancel anytime. reMarkable 2 and reMarkable Paper Pro will continue to be sold alongside reMarkable Paper Pro Move on remarkable.com. Built-in templates, including grids, lines, and planners, make it simple to jot down notes over coffee. Need more room to write? Just turn reMarkable Paper Pro Move sideways, and the display rotates automatically. Notes can be converted into text with a tap and sent by email directly fro...

I'm not an Angela Rayner fan. Not for a second. I think she is a button-pushing hypocrite who is the living embodiment of the socialists George Orwell described in Animal Farm. But I also rather suspect she is not nearly as monstrous as she is depicted by those on the other side of the political argument. I also don't think we have seen the last of her and she'll be back again within 18 months.However, I do not buy this narrative that she took bad advice. She's no different to the rest of us. She doesn't like paying tax. She wants to minimize what she has to pay.I've taken advice many times on all matter of subjects. We all have. Often I've been given advice I didn't want to hear - and as a result I've chosen to ignore it. Instead, I've listened to the advice that was what I wanted to hear, even if it was bad.Trying to fob this off on bad advice is both disingenuous and a deferral of responsibility.We all know what is or isn't going to be our main home. It's only when confronted with the option of paying £70,000 or £30,000 that we start mentally to fudge things and get into grey areas and legal niceties.Of course, she knew she had to pay the full £70,000. But like anyone faced with an OTT £70 grand tax bill, she's thinking "Shoot, that's a lot of money. I don't want to pay that." I don't blame her for thinking that. The reason most people in this country who would otherwise be moving are not is that same cost of Stamp Duty.It's patently an awful tax. It punishes people for moving, and so creates immobility. It gums up the housing market. It gets in the way of all the knock-on economic activity that stems from people moving. It taxes transactions not wealth: two people with identical houses pay totally different amounts of tax depending purely on whether they've just moved. It hurts the young and mobile most. It disincentivises downsizing. And on and on and on.Now this "house tax" has undone, of all people, the Housing Minister. Surely that in itself should tell the powers that be that it needs doing away with, as, more generally, the complexities of almost all UK taxes. But there is no chance of that happening, and Chancellor Rachel Reeves and those who advise her will go on wondering why they can't get Britain's economy moving.If you are buying gold or silver to protect yourself in these “interesting times” - and I urge you to the way things are going - my recommended bullion dealer is The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.I used to go out with a tax lawyer once upon a time and she would always say, “Don't try and evade taxes. It's not worth the agro”. Here we have a case in point. Now Rayner not only has to pay the full amount, plus fines, she has lost her job and a large chunk of the income by which she would pay it with the result that, not only has trying to dodge forty grand cost her her career, she might lose her new flat to it as well. And - do you know what? - given the way the housing market is going, because, in part, of Stamp Duty, I bet she won't find a buyer who'll pay the £800 grand she paid for it.After all the times she has called out others for not paying taxes, and nastily, there is a lot of karma here. Whatever. The more important message is that for umpteen reasons Stamp Duty needs abolishing.Until next time,DominicPS If you missed my midweek commentary here it is:PPS And if you haven't yet bought my book, WTF?!The Secret History of Gold is available to at Amazon, Waterstones and all good bookshops.

In this insightful episode of the HVAC School podcast, Bryan Orr sits down with successful small business owner Matt Bruner to discuss how to build and maintain a thriving HVAC business without the typical stress and overwhelming challenges that many entrepreneurs face. Matt, who has been running his own HVAC company for about two and a half years, shares his refreshingly honest perspective on small business ownership and debunks many of the common myths about entrepreneurial stress. Matt's journey from technician to business owner offers a compelling alternative to the traditional "grow fast or fail" mentality that pervades much of the business world. His approach centers on building a business aligned with personal values, particularly the desire to maintain work-life balance while still delivering excellent technical service. Rather than focusing on rapid expansion, fancy equipment, or impressive marketing, Matt chose to start lean, borrow minimal money (only $10,000 from his father for a van down payment), and grow organically while keeping overhead low and stress manageable. The conversation delves deep into the financial discipline required for successful business ownership, emphasizing the critical importance of separating personal and business finances, understanding your true hourly costs, and charging appropriately from day one. Matt candidly discusses his learning curve with business finances, from initially relying on advice from online communities to eventually working with a business coach and reading key books like "Profit First" to truly understand the numbers behind his operation. Both hosts stress that financial literacy isn't optional for business owners—it's a learnable skill that requires dedication but isn't as intimidating as many people believe. Throughout the discussion, both Bryan and Matt emphasize that there's no single "right" way to build a successful contracting business. While some entrepreneurs thrive on rapid growth, multiple locations, and eventual private equity buyouts, others find fulfillment in staying small, maintaining direct customer relationships, and focusing on technical excellence. The key is knowing yourself, understanding your values, and building a business structure that supports your personal and professional goals rather than chasing someone else's definition of success.
