You've heard of the points guy, but this is the gift card guy, or as Larry Rubin calls himself, the gift card guru. This recording is aimed at marketing for both of our client subsets, private members clubs and boutique hotels. Usage, Revenue Streams, Departments Inspected And Enhanced Through gift cards, clubs and hotels can track usage of new and returning members and guests when given free money or points. Marketers can introduce a club or a hotel property at really no cost if the gift card is combined with a payment toward membership - many clubs already give statement credits to members who bring in new members, there's no difference with a gift card. Or a hotel, during a light time of year, can use gift cards to offer free rooms, adventures or services. All would add more revenue and find business they wouldn't have had otherwise. Rubin, who is president of SwipeIt.com, has been doing this for decades and now sees a new trend in which you incentivize the use of a gift card by giving another gift card upon arrival. Imagine getting a prospective member to the club through a gift card with funds toward a summer membership. Upon presentation and use of that card, that guest receives two free rounds of golf - no cart or caddie fees. An incentive upon an incentive. Pickleball, Hard To Monetize, Can Be A Revenue Stream With Gift Cards In what is fast becoming a digital domain, private members clubs, boutique hotels and resorts are turning toward digital wallets. Rubin uses as an example a new pickleball facility within a retail mall. Through gift cards available throughout the mall, possible new members were enticed to the restaurant and retail store within the pickleball facility, adding revenue. And here's a statistic we all know is true through our own use of gift cards: 90 percent of gift card users spend more than the value of the gift card. That's found money for a hotel restaurant, private club food and beverage outlet. or golf or tennis pro shop. Clubs are revaluating their marketing strategies. Through membership apps, newsletters, revamped websites and text and push communications, clubs should perhaps look at building already existing revenue streams, or possibly finding new ones, through the use of gift cards.

Jeffrey Specter, with his extensive experience in radio and digital entrepreneurship, has played a pivotal role in transforming how content creators approach monetization. As the digital content landscape evolves, he has observed a significant shift from broad, mass-market audiences ("oceans") to niche, targeted audiences ("ponds"). This shift has driven the need for new monetization strategies that allow creators to generate revenue without relying on large audiences or traditional ad models like CPM, which often fail to benefit smaller creators. To address these challenges, Specter introduced CodeADX, an innovative commission-based platform that enables content creators to earn a percentage of sales they generate, rather than being dependent on audience size. This approach allows creators to choose brands that align with their niche and values, promoting products in ways that resonate with their specific audience. CodeADX's integration with platforms like Shopify makes it easier for creators to track and manage sales, offering a more flexible and effective monetization model compared to traditional advertising.

Susan Guthrie spent decades as a successful family law attorney, but when life pushed her to relocate and reimagine her career, she embraced innovation instead of starting over. Now, she's a nationally recognized mediation expert, online business owner, and podcast host, helping legal professionals expand their skills beyond traditional practice. In this episode, Susan shares how she transitioned from courtroom litigation to a thriving mediation business, the importance of leveraging technology in law, and why attorneys should think bigger when it comes to using their expertise.Lawyer Side HustlesSusan's career pivot didn't just lead her to mediation—it led her to building multiple successful businesses. When she first moved her practice online, colleagues started asking her how she did it, which led to the creation of Learn to Mediate Online, a training program that has now educated thousands of professionals.“People kept coming back and saying, ‘Well, what more can you teach me?' So I started creating programs on online marketing, website development, and podcasting. It all grew from people asking me for more information,” shares Susan Guthrie in Episode 185 of You Are a Lawyer.In addition to her mediation training programs, Susan also hosts The Divorce & Beyond Podcast, where she shares insights on family law, conflict resolution, and life after divorce.

Logicalis, the leading global technology service provider, has released its annual CIO Report, which reveals that 95% of CIOs are actively investing in technology to create new revenue streams within the next 12 months. According to the report - which surveyed 1,000 CIOs from across the globe, including Ireland - the CIO role is no longer focused on enablement but on shaping business strategy and driving value, with nearly all CIOs (94%) regularly reporting to the board on return on investment (ROI). This expanded mandate is heightened by the rapid emergence of new technologies. The report found that almost all organisations are exploring how next-generation technologies can specifically support commercial growth. This trend shows no sign of slowing, with Artificial Intelligence (AI - 95%), machine learning capabilities (93%), and Internet of Things (IoT - 89%) initiatives among the most widely adopted emerging technologies over the past 12 months. Realising value from these investments remains a challenge with 85% of CIOs reporting a growing pressure for technology to demonstrate tangible business impact and many (64%) acknowledging that their next-generation technology investments have yet to deliver anticipated returns. As the gap between balancing investments and realised value intensifies, CIOs remain optimistic about the potential of these technologies. Still, most tech leaders (93%) continue to juggle limited time and resources to ensure better business outcomes. As CIOs consider innovations that support future growth, they must continue to navigate business-critical objectives. Despite unprecedented spending on security solutions, 88% experienced cybersecurity incidents in the last 12 months last year, with 43% enduring multiple breaches raising questions about the effectiveness of security spending. One area where they are beginning to see tangible financial results is through the integration of environmental technologies. Nine in ten (91%) CIOs have realised direct commercial benefits, and over half (53%) report these as significant. With a good track record, it is no surprise that those investing in environmental sustainability initiatives have risen from 92% in 2023 to 95% over the past 12 months. On this year's report, Bob Bailkoski, Global CEO of Logicalis Group, said: "For almost every business, technology has become the primary engine of innovation, growth and resilience. With this dependence comes a new expectation of CIOs - they're no longer just enablers of business strategy but drivers of commercial success. Whether through maintaining a keener focus on ROI from next-generation technologies, optimising security spending or maximising the financial benefits of sustainability initiatives, technology leaders need to seek out the right investments and partnerships that can help them deliver on their business goals." While most CIOs are confident that their IT spending is yielding a return, many (91%) believe there is room for improvement. As challenges around complexity, resources and performance visibility remain, the report highlights the importance of fostering strong technology partnerships to help CIOs meet this changing landscape, alleviate pressures and unlock value. Additional findings on innovation 94% agree the CIO role is becoming a key part of shaping business strategy and direction 94% report their organisation is exploring how next-generation technology can support their commercial growth 94% of CIOs are actively seeking opportunities to incorporate AI into their business, compared to 89% last year 86% report growing pressure within their organisation to ensure ROI from AI Additional findings on sustainability 95% say their organisation is increasing their investment in environmental sustainability initiatives and/or technologies, compared to 92% last year 94% think IT is core to the success of their organisation's sustainability goals, compared to 93% last year 93% report their organisation se...
