What if I told you one of our clients added 80 new families to her enrollment for the upcoming school year, and five more who enrolled on the spot, in under 30 days? Not through luck. Not through crossing her fingers and hoping tours would convert. Through a system.In this episode, I'm walking you through the enrollment gear: what it actually looks like to build an enrollment ecosystem instead of just doing enrollment activity. I'm sharing the real story of a client, Missy, who runs multiple locations and turned one of her struggling centers around by building accountability into her calendar instead of hoping her team would just remember to follow up.We're covering the four levels of work every gear needs (strategic, implementation, support, and classroom), the difference between green and red activities in your enrollment process, and why your calendar is the real battlefield where enrollment either happens or doesn't. I also get into why disturbances and interruptions throughout your day aren't a sign something's broken. They're actually part of the job, and there's a mindset shift here that changes how you lead.What You'll Learn:The three systems Missy put in place that helped her center enroll 80 new families in under 30 daysThe four levels of work (strategic, implementation, support, classroom) and who owns each one in your enrollment processThe difference between green activities (closest to the cash) and red activities (busywork that feels productive but doesn't move enrollment)Why your calendar, not your to-do list, is where enrollment actually gets won or lostHow to know when your enrollment gear can move into strategic maintenance instead of constant hustleWhy interruptions and disturbances throughout your day are an invitation to practice leadership, not a problem to eliminateResources Mentioned:Five Gears Diagnostic: https://hub.schoolsofexcellence.com/fivegearsConnect With Us:Join us on Substack: https://chaniewilschanski.substack.com/

CRM is heading for the same automation wave that erased the ad operations team fifteen years ago — and brand marketers aren't ready. Eric Miao of Attentive explains what survives, why most companies don't really have a brand, and why earned media is getting impossible to trust.Rick Watson talks with Eric Miao, chief strategy officer at Attentive, about the coming shift in CRM: why the daily hand-made-decision model was always a gap filled by weak tools, why channel best-practices keep getting confused with brand voice, and how fake avatars and planted virality are draining trust from earned media. Eric also cools the Google-to-zero panic for commerce, points to shopping as the lowest category for LLM referrals, and lays out what CMOs should stop doing — and where their people's real advantage lives.This episode is sponsored by Avalara.

Most roofing contractors don't have a lead problem—they have a sales-system problem.In this episode, Dave Sullivan sits down with sales expert Ryan Groth to explain how roofing contractors can build a sales organization that converts leads consistently, even when the owner isn't personally involved in every sale.EPISODE DESCRIPTIONHiring salespeople doesn't automatically fix your sales problems. Without a defined process, training, accountability, and consistent follow-up, adding salespeople can create even more chaos.Dave Sullivan and Ryan Groth break down what roofing contractors need to build a predictable sales organization. They discuss speed-to-lead, booking rates, consultative selling, sales meetings, coaching, and the key performance indicators every contractor should track.Ryan explains why many salespeople rely on “quote and hope” instead of following a repeatable process. Dave shares how he managed his own sales organization, used reports to stay informed while away from the business, and held his team accountable without becoming involved in every sale.The message is simple: before you spend more money generating leads, make sure you have a system that converts the leads you already have.This conversation was originally published in October 2025. We're bringing it back because contractors are paying more than ever for leads, making sales conversion and follow-up even more important today.YOU'LL LEARNWhy more leads won't fix a broken sales processHow speed-to-lead affects your booking rateWhy salespeople need a defined, repeatable processThe difference between consultative selling and “quote and hope”How to set realistic individual and team sales goalsWhich sales KPIs every roofing contractor should trackHow to structure an effective weekly sales meetingWhy ongoing coaching and role-playing matterWhen the owner should manage sales—and when to delegate itHow better follow-up increases sales without lowering your priceRESOURCESReady to Find Out Where Your Business Is Losing Money?Schedule a free Roofing Business Review with Dave Sullivan.

No false comfort.

In this episode of To The Root, the host for today is Abby Malloy, who sits down with Clear Skin Lab client Carita to discuss her long and emotional journey with cystic acne and the transition from conventional treatments to a functional, root-cause approach to healing.After developing severe acne in her mid-20s, Carita found herself struggling not only physically, but emotionally as well. She shares how acne affected her confidence, daily life, and overall well-being, including the frustration and fear that remained even after completing a full course of Accutane. While conventional treatments initially provided temporary improvement, the acne eventually returned, leaving her searching for answers beyond symptom management alone.Through comprehensive functional testing and personalized support, deeper imbalances were uncovered, including digestive dysfunction, gut imbalances, mineral deficiencies, chronic bloating, fatigue, and stress-related depletion that were contributing to both her skin concerns and overall health symptoms. Abby and Carita discuss the importance of addressing the body holistically and how foundational support for digestion, nutrient status, and gut health became key components of her healing journey.They also explore the emotional side of healing chronic skin conditions, including the patience required when progress feels slow, the discouragement that can arise during setbacks, and the mindset shift necessary to move away from chasing quick fixes. Carita reflects on how personalized guidance, data-driven testing, and long-term foundational care helped her build confidence not only in her skin, but in her overall health.Listen now!HighlightsCarita's experience developing cystic acne in her mid-20s after previously having clear skinThe emotional impact of chronic acne on confidence, mental health, and daily lifeHer experience with conventional acne treatments, including Accutane, antibiotics, and topical therapiesWhy symptom-based approaches failed to address the deeper causes of her skin concernsHow functional testing uncovered digestive dysfunction, gut imbalances, and mineral deficienciesThe connection between gut health, nutrient absorption, inflammation, and acneWhy mineral support became a foundational part of improving energy, digestion, and skin healthThe importance of patience and consistency throughout a long-term healing journeyHow progress tracking and retesting helped provide reassurance during setbacksWhy restrictive elimination diets were not the long-term solution for her healing processThe role of practitioner guidance and personalized support in navigating chronic skin concernsHow addressing overall health improved not only her skin, but also her energy, mood, and confidenceWhy true healing often requires supporting the entire body rather than focusing only on symptomsConnect with Robyn:Instagram: @nutritionbyrobyn Website: https://www.theclearskinlab.com

This is how you scale a contracting business without burning yourself out.Sam Wakefield and Doug C. Brown just became business partners. Sam's been training contractors on sales and systems for years. Doug took Tony Robbins' sales team from seventeen point eight percent close rates to forty-three point two percent in four months. He's worked with ClickFunnels, E-Myth, and dozens of trades companies.When they combined forces? Exponential results.In this episode, you'll see exactly how we scaled a plumbing business from forty-five thousand dollars per month to one hundred fifty thousand dollars per month in ninety days. That's three times revenue in a quarter. But here's where it gets good. When Doug looked at the numbers, he cut the plumber's expenses in half. Then we added process around everything. And within two and a half weeks into the month, this guy had his best sales day, best sales week, and was on track for his best month ever.That's revenue growth plus expense reduction plus process improvement happening at the same time.How We Scaled This Plumbing Business:Step one: revenue growth through sales training and systems. Step two: expense restructuring and profit optimization. Step three: process implementation around everything. Result: triple the revenue in ninety days, cut expenses in half, best month ever by week two point five.The Formula:Money in minus money out equals result. That result equals the owner's quality of life. If you improve both sides of that equation at the same time, you transform the owner's life.Key Teaching Points:Why most contractors build the business on their own backHow to get it off your back through process and systemsThe axiom: success happens at the speed of implementationNinety percent of your time should be spent selling when growing to your first millionBut selling at a profit, that's the differenceSam's strength: revenue growth, sales frameworks, communicationDoug's strength: expense reduction, profit margins, process, efficiencyTogether: exponential growth contractors never thought possibleThe right tool at the right time, why most people fail with softwareMost contractors buy wrong tools at the wrong time or right tools at the wrong timeSoftware doesn't fix broken business fundamentalsNo magic bullets in businessDigitized follow-ups and AI call centers are distractions if the timing is wrongWhy random tools and software waste contractor's moneySame concepts apply whether you're two hundred K or two hundred million in revenueBut your focus changes at each stageRussell Brunson was Doug's student at Tony Robbins before ClickFunnelsDoug's credentials: Tony Robbins, ClickFunnels mentor, E-Myth, trades companiesRevenue growth without profit improvement equals owner crushedProfit improvement without revenue growth equals leaving money on the tableYou need both at the same time with proper processThe synergy of growing revenue, cutting expenses, and adding systems simultaneouslyReal Results from This Episode:Virginia plumber, forty-five thousand dollars per month in sales. After ninety days with Sam's training, one hundred fifty thousand dollars per month. Then Doug restructured the expenses, cut them in half. Then we added process. Week two point five into the month, best sales day ever, best week ever, best month ever.

If your fundraising strategy is built around giving them something in order to get something back, that's the give-get model, and it might be exactly what's slowing your organization down.In this episode, I'm breaking down the difference between a real SPRINT™ campaign and an old-school fundraising method wrapped in new language. I talk about why events, raffles, auctions, and 5Ks aren't inherently bad, but why building your entire fundraising strategy around them adds friction, drains people's power, and quietly signals that you don't trust the mission to be enough on its own. If you've ever said, "Why don't we just do a raffle?", this episode is for you.Topics:What a SPRINT™campaign actually is, and what it isn'tWhy wrapping an old-school fundraiser in SPRINT™ language doesn't make it a sprintHow events add friction for donors and where the money gets lost in the processThe give-get mentality and why donors don't need to be bribed to giveQuestions to ask before choosing your next campaign vehicleWhy defaulting to events usually means you don't yet trust the ask, and what to do insteadFor a full list of links and resources mentioned in this episode, click here.Bloomerang is the complete donor, volunteer, and fundraising management solution that helps thousands of nonprofits deliver a better giving experience and create sustainable, thriving organizations.

Description: The site visit isn't a measuring trip — it's a date. And how you run it determines whether you get the signature or get ghosted.In part 2 of this two-part series, Clark and James pick up right where part 1 left off and walk through everything from the on-site estimate to landing the signed contract. This is where the real money is made — or quietly lost.They cover:How to run a site visit so the client sees you as a guide, not a note-takerThe "have you considered" questions that build instant trust and unlock bigger budgetsHow to read a client's level of pickiness before you bid the jobThe smart way to talk through finish levels (drywall, trim, fixtures) so clients self-select their price tierWhy your line items need to speak to three audiences — the client, the crew, and future-youThe 48-hour window after the site visit where most contractors lose the emotional momentumHow to talk about price without apologizing or negotiating against yourselfWhen and how to pitch the CEA — the "meet the parents" moment of your sales processThe follow-up plays that keep you in the game between presentation and signatureWhy a CEA you can't deliver on is worse than no CEA at allIf you've been stuck losing jobs to cheaper bids or watching estimates go cold — this is the playbook that flips it.If you're doing $350K–$2M a year in revenue, coaching pays for itself. A 5% efficiency gain alone covers the cost — and that's before we even talk about growth. We help contractors stop losing money on crews, change orders, and inefficient operations — and start scaling. Ready to have the conversation?

Most successful people have a retirement number. Very few have a retirement reason.That's the gap Jason Wendt has spent 15 years closing. After watching client after client arrive with a solid portfolio and a hollow plan, he wrote a book about it. And now, fresh off an Amazon bestseller ranking and a feature segment on NBC Chicago, he's bringing that message to a wider audience.Episode SummaryIn this episode, Gabe McManus sits down with Jason Wendt, a Chicago-based financial advisor and author of Beyond the Numbers, to explore what it really means to build a financially efficient life. Jason shares why he starts every client relationship with the question "What's important about money to you?" rather than a statement of assets. He talks about the three phases of financial life most advisors forget to address, how childhood money narratives quietly shape the decisions of even the wealthiest clients, and why he considers himself the CEO of his clients' financial lives. Jason walks through the specific frameworks, client stories, and planning tools he uses to help people move from saving for a number to building a life around what actually matters to them.About Jason WendtJason Wendt, AIF®, APMA®, CEPA®, is a financial advisor at Ameriprise Financial in Chicago, Illinois, with over 15 years of experience serving high achievers, business owners, and professionals navigating complex financial lives. He holds the Accredited Investment Fiduciary, Accredited Portfolio Management Advisor, and Certified Exit Planning Advisor designations. Jason is the author of Beyond the Numbers: A High Achiever's Guide to Financial Freedom Without Sacrifice, an Amazon bestseller in the financial services category. He recently appeared as a financial expert on NBC Chicago and has been invited to speak at universities in the Chicagoland area.What We CoverWhy Jason's first question to every new client is "What's important about money to you?" and how that one question changes the entire planning processThe three phases of financial life: accumulation, distribution, and enjoyment, and why most financial plans never address the third oneHow childhood money narratives keep wealthy clients from enjoying what they've builtWhat financial paralysis looks like for high-earning professionals and business owners, and how to break through itWhy Jason positions himself as the CEO of his clients' financial lives, with a network of 17 specialists across insurance, estate planning, taxes, and investment managementProactive vs. reactive tax strategy: asset location, Roth conversions, and why timing matters more than most people realizeConnect with Jason WendtWebsite: beyondthenumbersbook.comLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jasonwendtEmail: jason@beyondthenumbersbook.comBook: Beyond the Numbers on AmazonSupport the show

Data centers don't exactly have a reputation for being climate heroes… but what if they could be? This week on Everybody in the Pool, Molly sits down with Jasper de Vries, co-founder and CEO of Lucend, to talk about the surprisingly wild world of data center optimization — and why the industry has been leaving billions of dollars and millions of megawatt hours on the table.In this conversation, Jasper explains how Lucend's platform uses machine learning and sensor data to make data centers dramatically more efficient. He also lays out a vision for the industry's future; one where data centers generate their own renewable power, store it in batteries, and feed flexibility back to the grid on demand.We talk about:Why data centers are sitting on a goldmine of untapped efficiency, and why they haven't captured it until nowHow Lucend uses 280 billion sensor readings to open up the "black box" of data center operations, saving customers an average of 25% on energy and 30% on waterWhy it's so hard to make even the smallest changes in how a data center operatesHow "transparent AI" builds operator trust by showing every step of the recommendation processThe water vs. energy trade-off in cooling, and why it's more complicated than headlines suggestWhy Scope 3 emissions from hardware are the dirty secret behind Big Tech's broken climate pledgesThe vision for data centers as flexible grid assets, and what's needed to get them thereLinks:Lucend: https://www.getlucend.com/All episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Join our Discord! https://discord.gg/2EsDhwQC2zSubscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member for the ad-free version of the show: https://everybodyinthepool.supercast.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Just yesterday I was speaking with a dear client about the fear a woman feels as she gets older. The idea that we'll arrive at a certain age, feeling full of regret over not having done enough, saved enough, risked enough, or made enough of our lives. So this fear runs us, prodding us from behind like a pitchfork, pushing us further away from ourselves and our deeper, truer desires. But then something happens when we enter mid-life.The rushing outwards starts to spiral back inwards. And while not always the case, we tend to arrive at the fearsome place feeling like we've arrived right on time, and in style. Now all of this sounds great, until you start calling a woman a crone.

What happens when your company grows faster than your ability to lead it? In this episode, Cam and Otis sit down with Rajesh Nagjee, a CEO mentor and self-described "business physicist" who helps scale-stage founders solve what he calls the Velocity Crisis—the widening gap between sophisticated business systems and a CEO's capacity to run them effectively.You built a Ferrari: sophisticated systems, frameworks, and infrastructure. But no one upgraded your inner operating system," Rajesh explains. Drawing on 30 years of experience across 15 countries and inspired by Tim Gallwey's Inner Game principles, he reframes leadership through a powerful equation: Scaling = Systems (Outer Game) minus Interference (Inner Game).What makes this conversation particularly compelling is Rajesh's unflinching approach to CEO development. From telling fear-based founders "there's no future for you” to advocating for "fixed outcome, variable process" frameworks, he challenges conventional wisdom about control, values, and leadership. His signature CEO Freedom OS framework, including Command Center OS, Delegation OS, Client Magnet OS, and Personal Brand OS, has helped clients like Amex KSA and Nielsen MEA achieve returns exceeding 500%.Whether you're a founder feeling overwhelmed by growth, a CEO struggling to delegate effectively, or a leader interested in building decision maturity within your team, Rajesh's systems-based approach offers a roadmap for scaling sustainably without becoming the bottleneck.More About Rajesh:Rajesh Nagjee is a CEO mentor and business physicist who helps scale-stage founders solve what he calls the Velocity Crisis, the widening gap between a company's systems and a CEO's capacity to run them at scale. You built a Ferrari: sophisticated systems, frameworks, and infrastructure. But no one upgraded your inner operating system. As growth accelerates, you become the bottleneck, driving a supercar with sedan instincts. Drawing on 30 years of experience across 15 countries, Rajesh reframes leadership through a systems lens inspired by Tim Gallwey's Inner Game: Scaling = Systems (Outer Game) minus Interference (Inner Game). His signature framework, CEO Freedom OS, includes four interlocking components: Command Center OS, Delegation OS, Client Magnet OS, and Personal Brand OS. Clients such as Amex KSA, Nielsen MEA, and BNI Middle East have used it to reduce overwhelm, build decision maturity, and scale sustainably with returns exceeding 500%.Chapter Times and Titles:Introduction: The Business Physicist [00:00 - 05:30]Welcome and meet Rajesh NagjeeWhat is a "business physicist"?The Velocity Crisis: when systems outpace leadership capacitySetting up the Ferrari metaphor"You Built a Ferrari, But Nobody Upgraded Your OS" [05:30 - 12:44]The gap between sophisticated systems and the CEO's capacityWhy founders become bottlenecks at scaleThe Inner Game vs. Outer Game frameworkScaling = Systems minus InterferenceFixed Outcome, Variable Process [12:44 - 18:40]The choice: fixed process/variable outcome vs. fixed outcome/variable process. Guardrails and swim lanes instead of rigid processesWhy business school frameworks often fail in practiceCreating freedom within structureThe beautiful father-son relationship exampleIf You Think You Can Control Anybody, Try Controlling Yourself [18:40 - 24:16]The illusion of control in leadershipWhy consistency is harder than we thinkShowing up in your individualityAligning on outcomes, not micromanaging the processThe coffee-making consistency exampleConfronting the Fear-Based CEO [24:16 - 32:00]How Rajesh helps CEOs overcome the fear of delegation"You're never going to come out of that fear psychosis."The provocative approach: telling them there's no futureBuilding decision maturity in leadershi

You had the vision. You felt the fire. You started strong.And now? You're stuck in the middle—questioning everything.What if nothing is wrong?What if the silence, the delay, the frustration…is actually the most important phase of your success?In this raw and deeply honest episode, Kellan exposes the truth most people never hear: the phase where nothing looks like it's working is often where everything is being built.Key Takeaways:The “valley between vision and arrival” and why it feels so hardWhy success often feels invisible before it becomes realThe dangerous mindset of “What did I do wrong?”The difference between certainty and timelineWhy creation and timing are NOT the same processThe emotional toll of delayed results and unmet expectationsThe “invisible construction phase” of building something meaningfulHow internal belief systems (like depression and self-worth) distort progressWhy faith is direction—not a stopwatchThe truth about effort, patience, and long-term visionThe choice you face in the valley: quit or keep building

This week on the Mainly Moonology podcast, I'm joined by the incredibly talented artist behind the Dark Moon Oracle Cards, Lindsay Kokoska.If you've seen the deck, you'll know the artwork has touched people deeply. The response has been extraordinary. In this episode, we go behind the scenes and explore what it really takes to bring a mystical deck to life.We talk about what happened when Hay House first approached her to illustrate a deck focused on the Dark Moon and divine feminine archetypes, especially since her personal work tends to focus on oneness, integration and the merging of light and shadow.You'll hear:How Lindsay approaches creating an oracle card deckWorking with shadow work and Dark Moon energyThe card she found most challenging to illustrateWhy Nyx became one of her favouritesWhat it's really like to receive feedback from multiple editors and art directorsThe balance between creativity, motherhood and commercial deadlinesHow meditation, walking in nature and stepping away from the canvas are essential parts of her processThe difference between commissions and licensing for artistsWhy she rarely gives faces to the women in her personal artworkHer perspective on oracle cards as a tool for guidance rather than predictionWe also talk about astrology, lunar living, the pull of the Dark Moon, and how working on this deck deepened her own understanding of Goddess energy.Lindsay shares insights into:Living between Nova Scotia and MoroccoHow place influences artistic expressionCreating as meditationTrusting intuition over external validationMaking a living as a modern artistIf you've ever wondered how an oracle deck is actually created, or if you're an artist yourself dreaming of bringing your own deck into the world, this conversation is full of wisdom and practical insight.And if you already have the Dark Moon Oracle Cards, this episode will help you connect even more deeply with the energy behind the images.Connect with LindsayInstagram: @infinite_mantraWebsite: infinitemantra.caResources MentionedThe Dark Moon Oracle CardsAvailable www.darkmooncards.com and wherever oracle decks are soldIf you loved this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs a little Dark Moon magic in their life.And as always, stay in tune with the Moon.Join the Mainly Moonology inner circle: https://moonmessages.com/magical––Follow Yasmin on socials:✨ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/yasminbolandmoonology✨ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/moonologydotcom/––Mainly Moonology is a podcast for people looking to manifest their dream life leveraging the power of the moon.

Jeremy is the founder of the Help Portrait movement, which has provided free portraits to hundreds of thousands of people around the world, and he has spent years pushing the boundaries of what photography can look like through experimentation, technology, and empathy.But this episode is bigger than photography.It is about curiosity.It is about courage.It is about what happens when an artist refuses to stop learning.Jeremy shares how he moves between photography, fine art, AI, augmented reality, humanitarian storytelling, and wildly experimental creative processes without losing his sense of purpose. He talks about why experimentation matters, why so many creatives stop learning too early, and how staying curious has opened unexpected doors in both commercial and personal work.We also talk about his latest project, If You're Breathing, a powerful concept built around using art and storytelling to help people in extreme financial need.
