Most business owners obsess over driving more traffic to their websites. But as Brian Schmitt, CEO of Surefoot and a returning guest, explains, the fastest and most efficient way to grow profits is by converting more of the website visitors that companies already attract into paying customers. Surefoot is a data-driven conversion rate optimization agency for e-commerce brands and a leading authority on controlled consumer experiments — also known as A/B testing.  By testing version ‘A' of a webpage against version ‘B,' Surefoot pinpoints which design, headline, graphic, or call-to-action wins more customers. Surefoot's signature methodology is what it calls the “Revenue Friction Roadmap,” a structured way to uncover what potential customers are thinking but not saying out loud. While most optimization experts aim for a 20–25% bump, Brian's clients often see nearly double that impact: a 40–44% increase in sales from existing site visitors. Even minor tweaks, Brian explained — backed by hard data — can deliver game-changing results. On this week's episode, Brian shares actionable steps that any business owner can implement to turn more of their website visitors into loyal customers. Monday Morning Radio is hosted by the father-son duo of Dean and Maxwell Rotbart.

Iofina PLC (AIM:IOF, OTC:IOFNF) CEO Dr Tom Becker talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's record financial and operational performance during the first half of 2025, highlighting over $29 million in revenue and a 40% increase in profit, driven by expansion in iodine production. Becker explained that the company produced more than 305 metric tons of iodine during the period, supported by the launch of IO#11, Iofina's third plant in three years. “IO#11 is now fully online. So we have a range in the market between 400 and 440 tons. Confident in that range as we speak today,” he said, adding that this would likely represent another record for the business. With iodine prices remaining above $70 per kilogram, Becker said Iofina averaged over $74 per kilogram during the first half and expects prices to stay firm due to steady demand and limited excess supply. The company is already progressing toward IO#12, with construction expected to begin before year-end. Iofina is also advancing other projects aimed at boosting production and developing new value-added iodine products through its chemical division. Becker highlighted that the company ended the period with $6.4 million in cash and modest net debt, adding that IO#11 is already paid for and generating cash flow. He noted that a facility with its banking partner positions the company well to fund further plant construction. Looking ahead, Iofina plans to continue expanding while educating the market about its model of extracting iodine from oil and gas brine streams. “We're not a start-up, we have proven technology,” said Becker, who emphasised that consistent execution and outreach will be key to unlocking shareholder value.

Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM) CEO Gary Cottle talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's progress in building a world-class ecosystem for tokenisation and digital assets. Cottle explained that Valereum is now moving beyond development and into delivery. He said the companies within Valereum's ecosystem, including DigiShares and Fideum, are “already quite mature in a very immature market” and are positioned as potential category leaders. He highlighted that Valereum has integrated DigiShares' infrastructure to replace its wallet solution, which is set to be adopted across regulated Valereum markets. The CEO also revealed that the company is expanding its reach through collaborations, including an upcoming partnership with Agentic AI. Cottle said these businesses are “all making good headway, and they're making quick ground in their markets.” When discussing asset focus, he pointed to opportunities in football clubs, real estate, metals inventory, and gold mines — assets he described as ripe for tokenization due to their illiquidity. Valereum has already soft-launched its regulated markets platform and is growing a pipeline of transactions, with several already announced. Looking ahead, Cottle stressed that revenues and growth remain the company's most important milestones. He noted that most of Valereum's current focus is on business development, with partners such as DigiShares and Fideum also pursuing new market opportunities.

Here's the thing. Payments only look simple from the outside. In this Tech Talks Daily episode, I sit down with Roberto “Reks” Kafati, CEO and co-founder of DEUNA, to unpack how a scrappy one-click checkout idea grew into an intelligent payments infrastructure that now touches a large slice of Mexico's online economy.  Reks explains why Latin America's high decline rates aren't just an inconvenience but a growth killer, and how DEUNA's early focus on orchestration and checkout opened the door to something bigger. When a region routinely sees more than four out of ten online transactions knocked back, the bar for reliability sits in a different place. That practical problem set the stage for what came next. Athena, Real-Time Decisions, and 638 Signals per Transaction DEUNA's pivot point came when merchants asked a fair question. With all this payment data flying through the system, what should we do with it? The answer is Athena, DEUNA's AI-powered layer that watches every transaction and feeds merchants real-time insight, routing choices, and suggested actions. It is not another dashboard you promise to check and then ignore by Friday. It is a reasoning engine that sits on top of 638 data points per transaction and turns mess into movement. That is how you recover revenue without punishing good customers with extra friction, how you avoid surprise fees from networks, and how you protect recurring revenue when a processor wobbles. Reks walks us through results that speak plainly. Ramped merchants saw conversion lift from the original one-click experience. The infrastructure tier recovers meaningful GMV and trims fees. Enterprise clients report double-digit ROI and stick around for the compounding effect. Building Through Adversity and Betting on the Right Layer What resonated most was the human story behind the metrics. DEUNA was born in the first months of the pandemic, shaped by the shock that hit real-world businesses when revenue fell off a cliff and marketplaces became a lifeline with strings attached. Reks shares an unvarnished look at a tough 2023, the kind of year founders rarely talk about on record. Revenues dipped, deals went sideways, life got complicated. The team chose resilience and doubled down on a two-year vision. That bet is paying off. Over the past twenty-four months the company has grown at a pace that would bend a chart, and the focus has shifted from commoditizing orchestration to productizing intelligence. Put simply, earn trust at checkout, then make the data work for the merchant in real time. Agentic Commerce, US Expansion, and What Comes Next We also look forward. If chat interfaces begin to mediate more buying decisions, merchants will need infrastructure that can think, not just connect endpoints. That is the territory DEUNA calls intelligent infrastructure, and it is where Athena operates every day.  The company is now in active conversations with major US retailers, confident after winning head-to-head enterprise evaluations. Reks frames the opportunity without hype. If you can see acceptance trends by processor, by country, by card type, and act in the moment, you keep customers, protect margins, and avoid death by a thousand false declines. If you cannot, competitors will gladly welcome your frustrated shoppers. If you care about the real mechanics of growth, this conversation is for you. We talk conversion lift, recovered revenue, and the gritty bits of building a payments company that merchants actually rely on. We also talk about the days that test your resolve and the tenth day that reminds you why you started.

Federal tax changes estimated to reduce state revenues by about $100 million a year.

During Ep. 27 of the Ask the Law Firm Seller Show, Jeremy E. Poock, Esq. addresses the following question: What is Senior Attorney Match's Design Phase?   As Poock explains, Senior Attorney Match's Design Phase involves 4 steps, the cumulative goal of which involves assisting selling law firms determine what they have, who wants what they have, determining their best option(s) for sale, and addressing payment terms to expect from a purchaser. The 4 steps of the Design Phase include the following: Step 1: Step 1 of the Design Phase focuses on determining the value of what a Senior Attorney-led firm has, including analyzing the following 5 components of value: (a) The Selling Law firm's Book of Business, including its clients and referral sources; (b) Client volume by practice area; (c) Revenues by practice area; (d) Bios, skill sets, and experience of key employee lawyers and para-staff; and (e) Digital Value Step 2: Analyze who wants and needs what a selling law firm offers. As Poock explains, there are 2 purchaser options, of which Growing Law Firms present typical purchasers, and internal successors represent infrequent purchasers. Poock points out that Growing Law Firms want and need the following 3 resources that Senior Attorney-led law firms offer: (a) New clients, i.e., instant client growth; (b) An experienced workforce, consisting of lawyers and para-staff; and (c) Treasure chests of Subject Matter Knowledge to convert to digital content to attract the attention of today's and tomorrow's clients who search online for lawyers and law firms to retain. By contrast, internal successors infrequently purchase their boss' law firm because internal successors typically want and need the following per their roles as key employee lawyers: A Reliable, Predictable, and Safe Job. Step 3: Determine a preferred sale option. During this step, Senior Attorney Match explores the following 4 sale options Senior Attorney sellers to consider: (a) Join/Seller to a Growing Law Firm (preferred); (b) Structure and internal sale (potential); (c) Maintain the Status Quo (Risky); or (d) Become a referring attorney per a given state's version of Rule 1.5 of the Professional Rules of Conduct (alternative to a sale and maintaining the Status Quo). Step 4: Address Law Firm Sale Payment Options. During this step, Senior Attorney Match explains the following 3 payment options available to a selling law firm: (a) Law Firm Sales 1.0, which primarily consists of earnout terms, payable as negotiated fee sharing upon collections attributable to a selling law firm's Book of Business during a negotiated period time: (b) Law Firm Sales 2.0, which includes a fixed payment attributable to a selling law firm's digital and brand value, plus an earnout; or (c) Additional payment options, including : (i) A fixed price; (ii) A Buy-Sell Agreement with internal successors or a third party law firm; or (iii) A tiered purchase approach, typically negotiated with an internal successor.

August may be a seasonally-weaker month for markets, but for Summer Weather in Texas, it's hot! Lance shares weekend wedding events, and previews this week's economic data reports: Will inflation stoked by tariffs appear in the numbers? The only question that matters to investors his how the news will affect forward earnings estimates. There is now a 90% probability of a Fed rate cut by September; much will hinge on this week's CPI, PPI, and Retail Sales data. Lance reviews the similarities and differences between the Dot Com bubble and the AI boom. (Lance's ADD is triggered by a story on a TV monitor about adult pacifiers.) Revenues are key to economic growth, and employment is critical. Commentary on debts, deficits, and student loan defaults. Markets are sitting in a contraction zone: 80% of market is not growing.

August may be a seasonally-weaker month for markets, but for Summer Weather in Texas, it's hot! Lance shares weekend wedding events, and previews this week's economic data reports: Will inflation stoked by tariffs appear in the numbers? The only question that matters to investors his how the news will affect forward earnings estimates. There is now a 90% probability of a Fed rate cut by September; much will hinge on this week's CPI, PPI, and Retail Sales data. Lance reviews the similarities and differences between the Dot Com bubble and the AI boom. (Lance's ADD is triggered by a story on a TV monitor about adult pacifiers.) Revenues are key to economic growth, and employment is critical. Commentary on debts, deficits, and student loan defaults. Markets are sitting in a contraction zone: 80% of market is not growing. Global growth forecasts are dismal; debt is not the problem. Debts and deficits are a feature of the economy, not a bug.

Akiba Leisman, President and CEO of Mako Mining (TSX.V:MKO – OTCQX:MAKOF), joins us to review the record Q2 2025 financials and operations results from the San Albino Mine in Nicaragua, along with some ongoing residual leaching during the period from the recently acquired Moss Mine in Arizona.  We also unpack the anticipated mining to begin this quarter at the Moss Mine, and what to anticipate for the several months of ramp up of increased production.  Additionally, we delve into the next key steps for permitting and development work at the Eagle Mountain Gold Project in Guyana; set to be in construction in 2026 and production by H2 of 2027.   This is a longer-format interview where we get into many nuances of operations in all 3 jurisdictions.   Q2 2025 San Albino Operational Highlights 54,354 tonnes mined, containing 10,911 ounces ("oz") of gold ("Au") at an average grade of 6.24 grams per tonne ("g/t") Au and 12,491 oz of silver ("Ag") at 7.15 g/t Ag 52,705 tonnes milled containing 11,153 oz Au and 12,847 oz Ag grading 6.58 g/t Au and 7.58 g/t Ag 41% and 59% from diluted vein and historical dump and other, respectively 595tonnes per day ("tpd") milled at 97% availability, with a mill recovery of 80.3% for gold   Q2 2025 Mako Financial Highlights   Mako total gold sales of 11,476 oz Au for total revenue of $38.1 million in Q2 2025 San Albino Mine sales of 10,104 oz Au at $3,323 per ounce Moss Mine sales of 1,372 oz Au from residual leaching activities at $3,321 per ounce Delivered final 13,500 oz silver payment to Sailfish Silver Loan for a total of $0.4 million in Q2 2025 $1.5 million release of collateral at Moss Mine from Trisura Guarantee Insurance Company Cash Balance of $28.6 million as of June 30th, 2025     There is also a substantial exploration program underway all around the San Albino Project in Nicaragua, around the San Albino Mine, as the Las Conchitas concessions, and of particular interest at the El Golfo concessions.     Akiba points out that the Moss mine has been producing gold the last few month through residual leaching at its beneficiation facilities, but their team is going to start mining again this quarter, and then it will take several months for new materials moved onto the leach pads to charge up increased production again. A technical report and Pre-Feasibility Study is slated to be put out later in the year around October, after a few months of ramping up mining and assessing the resources in place. When the Moss Mine has been debottlenecked over time from a mining and permitting perspective and is producing at the grade and rate they believe is possible,  it could almost double their current production profile with approximately another 40,000 ounces of gold production per year out of Arizona.   Mako is also currently derisking their Eagle Mountain project in Guyana, and working on the next key deliverable of an agreement between the government and local stakeholders, and doing all the background environmental and engineering work to being the process for their EIA permit.  Once it is received back and a construction decision is made, there will be roughly a 1 year build, and then production is slated for Q2 of 2027 at an estimated 60,000 -65,000 ounces per year.  When this added to the production out of Nicaragua and Arizona there is clear line of sight to growing into a mid-tier gold producer.     If you have any further questions for Akiba regarding Mako Mining, then please email them into us at either Fleck@kereport.com or  Shad@kereport.com.     In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Mako Mining at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell more shares at any time.   Click here for a summary of the recent news out of Mako Mining.

What happened with Rentokil this week? Find out on this week's PlayingFTSE Show!It's not been a good week for either Steve – or the FTSE 100, or the S&P 500. Steve W's in between the indexes and Steve D's below them both. Taylor Wimpey is the latest addition to Steve D's portfolio. But the firm made a loss and lowered its dividend as a result of cladding provisions during the first half of the year.That, however, should be a one-off thing. And Steve W has some macroeconomic data to support the idea that the construction industry could be about to pick up.Amazon's share price fell sharply after the firm's Q2 earnings report. And not just because tariff news sent the stock market down more generally. Steve W is putting it down to weak guidance for operating profits in Q3. So is the falling share price an opportunity to get back to buying the stock?Transmedics has been having an outstanding year so far in 2025. The stock market has responded well to the company's latest earnings report – and for good reason.Revenues are profits growing strongly and the firm is working on the next iteration of its product lineup. All of that bodes well for Steve D's investment. We've had a request to talk about Croda International's latest earnings report. The stock market didn't like it at all, but Steve W thinks the picture is more mixed. The dividend is up despite lower free cash flows and sales are growing, but not as quickly as they were.

From 2021 – 2023, Manhattan, Overland Park, and Wichita appeared to use most of their transient guest tax revenue appropriately, but a small portion was inappropriate or unclear. Kansas statute allows cities and counties to charge guests at hotels or other short-term lodgings a tax (called a transient guest tax), which local governments can then use to fund tourism-related expenditures. Most cities with a transient guest tax charge more than the 2% rate in statute because they use the home rule provision in the Kansas Constitution to exempt themselves. The 3 cities we reviewed spent transient guest revenues differently from 2021 to 2023 but most of their spending appeared to be appropriate. All 3 cities used transient guest tax revenues to pay the local convention and visitors bureaus to promote tourism. All 3 cities appeared to use transient guest tax revenues to finance tourism and convention related bonds. Wichita appeared to use transient guest tax revenues to maintain and operate existing tourism facilities. Manhattan and Wichita used transient guest tax revenues on direct grants or sponsorships for tourism. In 2023, Manhattan transferred $100,000 of its transient guest tax revenue to the general fund, but we could not determine if it was used appropriately because of a lack of documentation. Wichita spent $16,000 of guest tax revenue from 2021 – 2023 to cover city administrative and audit fees, which is inappropriate because the expenses are not related to tourism and conventions. Finally, we also found a difference between certain definitions in Wichita's transient guest tax ordinances and state law. As a result, since 1992, KDOR may have collected and Wichita may have received transient guest tax revenues from guests at some hotels and other lodging entities that aren't authorized in Wichita's charter ordinance.

John Broeske is back! In June 2025, the U.S. government recorded a $27 billion budget surplus—the first monthly surplus since 2017—largely fueled by a surge in customs duties, which hit $27.2 billion, a 301% increase from June 2024. This unexpected surplus followed a $316 billion deficit in May and was also aided by a 27% drop in government spending month-over-month.

Who has to try and figure out what to do in the mornings? Find out on this week's PlayingFTSE Show!Another week, another outperformance for one Steve. And the other one hasn't done bad, either…Terry Smith – known to some as Britain's Warren Buffett – has released his shareholder letter for the first half of 2025. And the Fundsmith Equity Fund has been losing money.Chief among the detractors is Novo Nordisk, which has been sold to make way for EssilorLuxottica. But the stocks catching Steve W's attention are Meta and Microsoft…FTSE 250 housebuilder Vistry reported earnings this week and the numbers are… not great. But Steve D has some news that has put the stock firmly on Steve W's list of stocks to buy.The investigation from the CMA looks like it's all but settled. And with the stock having gone nowhere ahead of a £39bn government package, is the opportunity too good to miss?Investors might wonder why shares in Celebrus Technologies jumped 15% this week after earnings. Revenues are set to fall and earnings are going negative in 2026.That, though, is almost entirely the result of a change in revenue recognition. Steve W thinks a closer look reveals a company that's doing just fine – and a stock at a decent price.Steve D has been reverting to type with a South American stock with a name that's difficult to spell. But Tecnoglass is traded on the US exchanges and it looks very interesting.With competitive strengths ranging from low costs (due to vertical integration) to a unique product (due to patents) it's in a strong position. And of course, a balance sheet to match.Only on this week's PlayingFTSE Podcast!► Get a free share!This show is sponsored by Trading 212!

Everyone's talking about tariffs . . . but do we really know what they are, how they work, what their purpose is?Scott and Bob give backgrounder on tariffs from a historical perspective (we're not economists) and discuss the reason they are used in global economic relationships and describe some of the reasons that American founders advocated for them (hint, it's not about revenues--it's for capitalist development of industry). We also discuss the political meaning of the tariff--they're part of a dispute over trade policy between northern manufacturing and southern agriculture (the so-called Tariff of Abominations) from the early 19th century through the McKinley Tariff years. Then we described the advent of the Free Trade era and how tariffs became less important (a federal income tax replaced tariffs as a main source of revenue as the U.S. grew into an economic power--tariff revenues weren't adequate for the needs of a growing imperial power by the early 20th century--and how that began to shift after World War II. And we finished up by briefly discussing how ill-developed and damaging Trump's tariffs will be.------------------------------Outro- "He's A Heartache" by Janie Fricke Follow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast⁠⁠⁠ +Our rad website: ⁠⁠⁠https://greenandredpodcast.org/⁠⁠⁠ + Join our Discord community (https://discord.gg/3a6AX7Qy)+Follow us on Substack (https://greenandredpodcast.substack.com)+Follow us on Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/podcastgreenred.bsky.social)Support the Green and Red Podcast// +Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast +Or make a one time donation here: ⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/DonateGandR⁠⁠⁠ Our Networks// +We're part of the Labor Podcast Network: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.laborradionetwork.org/⁠⁠ +We're part of the Anti-Capitalist Podcast Network: linktr.ee/anticapitalistpodcastnetwork +Listen to us on WAMF (90.3 FM) in New Orleans (https://wamf.org/) This is a Green and Red Podcast (@PodcastGreenRed) production.
