Podcasting isn't just about content, it's about connection, trust, and building something that works with your life, not against it. In today's episode, I'm joined by my longtime business coach, Stefanie Gass, for a powerful conversation about how podcasting can become a sustainable growth engine for your business without hustle, pressure, or constantly reinventing the wheel. We talk about what's changed in the podcasting space, why audio builds trust faster than most platforms, and how clarity around your message and offer is what actually leads to consistent sales. If you've been curious about podcasting, or you've already started but feel like something's missing, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and a next step that feels aligned. xoxo, Chelsi Jo . . . . .

In this weeks' Scale Your Sales Podcast episode, my guest is Orrin Thomas.   His career has spanned three separate pillars starting out as a political researched after graduating from university, He then worked in higher education and the EdTech space mainly being a recruiter for universities where he was responsible for attracting students to study in the UK, and most recently having had senior sales positions at Gartner for sales leaders helping countless companies make successful changes in their GTM models.   In today's episode of Scale Your Sales podcast, he shares why critical questioning, active listening, and process-driven discipline have become essential capabilities for today's top sales performers.

Almost every growing business experiences a moment when success starts creating as many problems as it solves. Sales are up. The team is bigger. The product line is broader. And suddenly, the systems that got you here start to break. That's where Liz Picarazzi finds herself right now. “We're in the valley of death,” she says. “And we really need help.” Liz's company, Citibin, made the most recent Inc. 5000 list, but Citibin has also hit that dangerous in-between stage—too big to run on improvisation, too small to have put in place all of the processes it needs.So Liz is trying to grow her way out of the valley. She's hired a marketing agency. A growth consultant. And two AI advisors. She's testing new domestic fabricators. And she's rebuilding her website from the ground up—because right now, it's generating no more than 10 percent of sales, and she knows it can do better. The site hasn't kept up with her expanding product line, and it isn't even optimized for search engine discovery, let alone for generative AI discovery.Talking it through with Paul Downs and Jaci Russo, Liz confronts some uncomfortable questions: How much copy is “enough” for AI? How transparent should pricing be—especially for a premium product whose prices could scare away some customers? And who has a better feel for the company's story—the owner who's lived it or the agency that has more experience helping businesses connect with customers? Not surprisingly, Liz and Jaci have different instincts on that one. What follows is a candid look at what it takes to rebuild a growing business at the dawn of a new era.

Get free marketing videos every week from Don at WeeklySoundbite.com   Every day, businesses lose sales because their message is hard to understand. If your website or sales pitch uses complicated words or vague ideas, customers will move on. That's because it creates mental friction, and the brain's natural response is to check out. You might think you're sounding smart, but unclear communication often makes people feel confused or uninterested. And when people feel confused, they don't buy. So how can you tell if your message is too complicated?   In this episode, Donald Miller breaks down the concept of "cognitive load" and how it silently kills marketing efforts. You'll learn how to simplify your messaging, why "putting the cookies on the lower shelf" works, and how a billion-dollar company shifted gears by making its value proposition crystal clear. Whether you're running a political campaign, pitching investors, or just trying to sell more sweaters, this episode shows you how to make your message lighter, clearer, and more effective without dumbing it down.   --   Click HERE to get in-person help creating your marketing at the next available StoryBrand Your Business LIVE event!   Click HERE to find a StoryBrand certified marketing coach to help you grow your business!   Learn how to make your marketing and messaging work using a proven framework in the updated book, Building a StoryBrand 2.0. Order it now on Amazon  or wherever you buy books!

Eric introduces the concept of "sales pathology", which he defines as a repeated pattern of dysfunction in how contractors communicate with potential clients. He argues that many professionals suffer from "speech disorders" in sales—such as inconsistent pacing, over-explaining, or sounding uncertain—which ultimately destroy trust and lead to lost revenue. By comparing these issues to physical ailments or speech impediments, he emphasizes that these behaviors require specialized diagnosis and rigorous training to correct. Triplett highlights live role-playing as the essential "prescription" for identifying these hidden flaws that marketing alone cannot fix. Furthermore, the discussion touches on leadership and legacy, exploring how contractors can grow their businesses while supporting the personal goals of their employees. Through community accountability, Eric aims to help contractors break through financial plateaus and achieve a better quality of life. Key Takeaways: Identify and address your personal "sales pathologies," which are repeated patterns of dysfunctional communication that can create distrust and lower your value with clients. Commit to regular role-play training with peers to expose and correct communication blind spots that you may not be able to identify on your own. Maintain a consistent tone and cadence throughout your sales conversations, ensuring you sound just as confident when discussing pricing as you do when explaining the technical scope of work. Prioritize improving your sales communication skills before increasing your marketing budget to ensure you don't waste new leads on a dysfunctional sales process. Surround yourself with a community or peer group that provides the necessary pressure and accountability to help you maintain high standards and continuous professional growth.

In this episode of the Sales Maven Show, Nikki Rausch dives into one of the most overlooked parts of a successful sales conversation: conversation starters. Not scripts. Not pitch openers. But intentional ways to create safety, clarity, and connection from the very beginning of a sales conversation. Nikki explains why so many smart, capable professionals feel awkward or disconnected on sales calls, and why this has far less to do with skill and far more to do with pressure and mindset. When you stop trying to "say the right thing" and start focusing on building rapport, sales conversations become calmer, more natural, and far more effective. Nikki reminds listeners that relationship selling is about flow, not performance. A strong conversation starter sets the emotional tone and direction for the entire call. It invites collaboration instead of control and curiosity instead of convincing. When you enter a sales conversation grounded and regulated, you build trust. And when trust is present, movement happens. Nikki also emphasizes the importance of managing your emotional state before the call, noting that you do not need to show up as a perfect version of yourself. You simply need to show up as the best version you are capable of in that moment. The episode walks through three practical conversation starters designed to help prospects feel heard while giving you critical insight into their needs, readiness, and decision-making process. Nikki explains how each starter positions the buyer as the expert in their own experience, reduces pressure, and prevents overexplaining. She also shares why listening fully, pausing instead of jumping in, and taking notes are essential skills that directly impact your ability to guide the conversation and close cleanly. Listeners will learn how conversation starters help reveal urgency, communication style, emotional drivers, and fit, all without sounding salesy or scripted. Nikki also offers coaching on how to practice these conversation starters intentionally by choosing one and testing it across multiple sales conversations. This approach builds confidence, strengthens presence, and makes sales conversations feel lighter and more effective over time. This episode is especially valuable for consultants, coaches, and service-based business owners who want sales conversations to feel less heavy and more human. When you shift your focus from performing to connecting, conversation starters become one of the most powerful tools in your sales process. Nikki invites you to join the Sales Maven Society.

Hour 1 for 2/9/26 Drew spoke with John Egan, Director of Marketing & Sales and Assistant Professor of Practice, at the Bush School of Business (1:04) about the Super Bowl Ads (19:54), and the Budweiser Ad (22:28). Then, Dr. Saverio Perugini covers what AI can and cannot do (28:06), and if people should consider a job change (36:08).

IT spending continues to expand, with North America projected to lead a 12.6% increase to $2.6 trillion, primarily due to hyperscaler investments in AI infrastructure. However, the proportion of technology spending funneled through channel partners is declining, now at 61% compared to over 70% four years ago, according to a survey by Omnia. This shift signals that while the market is growing, traditional margin and resale opportunities for MSPs are narrowing as vendors redirect a larger share of revenue direct while still relying on partners for implementation, support, and customer operations.Data from Salesforce underscores a near-universal trend toward partner involvement in sales, with 94% of surveyed global salespeople leveraging partners to close deals and 90% using tools to manage relationships. Despite this, Dave Sobel clarifies the distinction between involvement and compensation, highlighting that partner influence on deals does not guarantee economic participation at previous levels. These dynamics reinforce that MSPs must adapt to a reality where their role in the value chain is being separated into influence and execution, with the middle tier facing increasing pressure.Additional analysis draws attention to labor market changes and technology commoditization. U.S. job openings have fallen to their lowest point in over five years, undermining MSP growth strategies dependent on seat expansion. Simultaneously, the AI market is fragmenting at the application layer—with Google's Gemini app, Grok, and OpenAI's ChatGPT shifting market shares rapidly—while hyperscalers like Alphabet (Google) commit unprecedented capital expenditures, fueling an infrastructure arms race even as front-end AI tools become more interchangeable.The practical implication for MSPs and IT service providers is increased pressure to re-evaluate business models, operationalize AI offerings, and focus on defensible, productized services. Reliance on a single vendor or seat-based growth forecasts presents heightened risk. Successful adaptation will require a shift toward managed services around AI operations, governance, and productivity—emphasizing accountability, optionality, and measurable ROI—rather than assuming historic revenue models will persist.Three things to know today:00:00 Partners Essential to Sales but Losing Economic Share, Survey Shows05:44 US Job Market Shows Low Hiring, Low Firing Despite Falling Openings       08:00 Alphabet Plans $180B AI Capex as Gemini Hits 750M UsersThis is the Business of Tech.   Supported by: Small Biz Thoughts Community

Most sales opportunities aren't lost at the end; they're lost in the very first meeting. In this episode of Sales Lead Dog, Chris sits down with sales strategist and bestselling author Lee Salz, creator of The First Meeting Differentiator, to unpack why traditional “discovery calls” are broken and what top-performing sales professionals do instead. Lee explains why salespeople rely too heavily on logic, features, and self-focused questions… while buyers leave meetings feeling like they got no value. The result? Ghosting, stalled deals, poor qualification, and wasted pipeline time. You'll learn how to turn your first meeting into a consultative, value-driven conversation that builds emotional engagement, qualifies opportunities early, and creates clear next steps. If you're in B2B sales, sales leadership, or building a structured sales process, this episode is a masterclass in modern selling, qualification, and sales psychology.

A Nintendo Direct packed with Xbox-adjacent announcements signals just how normalized multi-platform publishing has become. At the same time, new data shows hardware sales continuing to slide across the industry, even as engagement and monthly active users remain strong. The discussion also digs into the Epic Games Store's record year, what multiple storefronts could mean for future Xbox hardware, and why competition — not exclusivity — may be the defining force of the next generation. Additional topics include: Xbox titles becoming expected on Nintendo platforms Why engagement now matters more than boxes sold The risks and rewards of pricing games at $70+ Live-service optics vs actual game quality What a Windows-based future could mean for consoles

I'm saying the quiet part out loud: if you don't build your sales muscle, growth stalls - no matter how talented you are. In this episode, Julia Arpag, CEO and Founder of Aligned Recruitment, shares with me how she went from five weeks postpartum and laid off to building a seven-figure tech recruitment firm by treating selling as service, investing early in mentorship, and using LinkedIn + networking like a real funnel.Julia's journey began in August 2023 when she was unexpectedly laid off while on maternity leave. What could have been a destabilizing moment became the catalyst for something extraordinary. While briefly accepting a W-2 role, she started selling for a friend's startup recruitment venture on the side. Within months, she closed three retainer clients. That early traction forced a pivotal decision: continue playing it safe, or step fully into entrepreneurship despite fears around sales, taxes, and “not knowing enough.” She chose the leap. Rather than trying to figure everything out alone, Julia invested her earliest earnings into mentorship by hiring an executive coach who had sold a recruitment agency for $28 million, a LinkedIn writing coach, and systems experts. Inspired by Carol Dweck's Mindset and the philosophy of “Who Not How,” she built her sales muscle, reframed selling as service, and adopted a growth mindset that became foundational to Aligned Recruitment's rapid success. She reminds us that for women entrepreneurs especially, seeking support is often the difference between staying small and scaling meaningfully. We also explored Julia's tactical wisdom as a recruiter, including why job seekers should treat their search like a sales funnel, how to optimize LinkedIn to be discovered, and why networking consistently outperforms cold online applications. At a deeper level, Julia challenges the idea that business success must come at the cost of personal well-being. Her philosophy is clear: build a business around your life, not the other way around. This conversation is a powerful reminder for all of us that profitability, purpose, and peace can coexist. Tune in to hear my conversation with Julia Arpag and how she is redefining what it looks like for women to lead, sell, and scale without losing themselves in the process. Chapters: 01:12

Matt Ferguson is a seasoned sales leader and coach with a global reach, having worked with clients in over seven countries. Known for his direct, story-driven teaching style, Matt focuses on sales fundamentals, leadership alignment, and the importance of clear communication. He joins the podcast to unpack the noise in modern sales, the misuse of technology, and the role of fundamentals in driving consistent success. Three Key Quotes from the Podcast with Matt Ferguson "Stories that other people go through benefit people way more, and I think that's in your head." "We all have the same problems in some way…because you're dealing with people." "You saying stuff all the time—you're almost kinda looked at as dad. Like, 'Oh, there goes dad again.'" In this lively and thoughtful conversation, Matt Ferguson and host Mike explore the true fundamentals of sales—storytelling, project management, communication, and mindset. They tackle AI tools, fake content, and the importance of real human connection in leadership and selling. The episode is packed with insights, humor, and authentic experiences. ales fundamentals, sales leadership, AI in sales, sales tools, sales communication 5 Key Takeaways and Their Catalyst Connection 1. The Right Tools Only Work When You Use Them Intentionally AI note-takers like Elephant are only helpful if you revisit and apply what they capture. Sales leaders often hoard tools without gaining insight—intent matters more than tech. Use tools like rangefinders in golf: they're useful when aligned with real awareness. Catalyst Connection: Intentional use of tools sparks clarity and momentum. 2. Fundamentals Beat Noise in Sales Fundamentals include: asking questions, storytelling, time management, and project management. The sales world is filled with "fake fundamentals" that distract from what matters. Clarity in fundamentals is what helps reps and leaders progress confidently. Catalyst Connection: Re-centering on true fundamentals activates consistent growth. 3. Communication is the Core of Everything Misalignment in teams and sales processes usually stems from poor communication. Clarify, verify, and create space for others to share—especially in leadership. Don't assume people understood what you said; ask them to reflect it back. Catalyst Connection: Clear communication removes blocks and empowers action. 4. Storytelling Makes Lessons Stick Matt brings client stories into conversation to make abstract lessons real. Stories create emotional connections and help teams remember and apply learnings. Don't hide lessons from clients—share them (respectfully) to help others grow. Catalyst Connection: Storytelling ignites empathy and shared learning. 5. Leadership Doesn't Mean Doing It Alone Leaders often believe they must solve every problem solo. Team alignment and shared ownership make challenges easier to overcome. Create space for "players-only meetings" and organic collaboration. Catalyst Connection: Asking for help or offering collaboration can be the spark that changes everything. Find Your Catalyst at findmycatalyst.com

Today's episode is a real estate conversation with one of the most impressive young agents in the business. Cooper Murphy is 23 years old and closed 58 deals in his first full year as a real estate agent in 2025 — in a market where most people say it's “too hard to sell.” We break down exactly how he did it. We discuss what real work looks like day-to-day, why intention matters more than scripts, and how creating real value is the fastest way to build referrals and momentum. Cooper walks through his daily schedule, how many hours he's actually working, how he structures his calls and follow-ups, and why consistency beats talent every time. We also get into:Why networking works when it's done with the right intentionHow one great deal can turn into 10–15 moreThe difference between buyers and listings and where Cooper focused earlyWhy working with people your own age can compound long-termHow to think about lifetime client value instead of quick winsCreative financing and subject-to strategies and why they matter in this marketHow to analyze worst-case scenarios so you don't over-leverageWhy content and deal-sharing builds trust faster than traditional marketingThis episode is a blueprint for young agents, new agents, and anyone who wants to build a real estate business that compounds instead of burns out.

Every advisor wants more referrals, but very few have built a business that consistently earns them.In this conversation, I sat down with Duncan MacPherson to unpack what actually makes an advisory firm referable. Duncan is the founder of Pareto Systems and one of the most respected coaches in financial services, with nearly 30 years spent working alongside top advisory firms. He explains why the advisors who scale fastest stop pitching products, start positioning a clear planning process, and build businesses that get found instead of chased.3 of the biggest insights from Duncan MacPherson…#1.) Advisors Don't Need More Referrals, They Need to Be ReferableMost advisors focus on asking for referrals, but Duncan explains why that actually creates friction. The real breakthrough happens when clients clearly understand (and can easily explain) what makes your process different. #2.) The Best Advisors Don't Sell Products, They Position Their ProcessThe biggest shift in financial services isn't technology, it's philosophy. The most successful advisors have moved on from pitching products by effectively using branding and clearly articulating a proprietary process, creating deeper engagement, stronger loyalty, and a business that scales without becoming more complicated.#3.) A Business That Depends on You Is a Business That Limits YouOne of the clearest signals of a healthy business is whether it can operate without the founder's constant presence. Duncan explains why documenting intellectual property, empowering teams, and depersonalizing the business isn't about ego—it's about freedom, sustainability, and enterprise value.

This marked the lowest temperature recorded in February since 1923. - Iguanas dropping from tress all over the streets - Iguanas can survive temperatures down to the mid-40s Fahrenheit (around 7°C) by entering a "cold-stunned" state, where they appear dead but are just temporarily paralyzed and immobile; however, prolonged exposure to temperatures in the 30s and 40s, especially below freezing, can be lethal, particularly for smaller individuals, leading to tissue damage and organ failure. - They get sluggish below 50°F (10°C) and fall from trees as they lose grip. - The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) issued Executive Order 26-03 on Friday, allowing residents to collect and surrender cold-stunned green iguanas without a permit during an unprecedented cold weather event. Right on Schedule - Remember we talked about how the Nat Gas price was going to reverse, just as quickly as it spikeed? - Nat gas down 25% today - down about 28% from recent high - Still about 50% higher than it was before the spike. THIS! - Nvidia Corp. Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang said the company's proposed $100 billion investment in OpenAI  was “never a commitment” and that the company would consider any funding rounds “one at a time.” - “It was never a commitment,” Huang told reporters in Taipei on Sunday. “They invited us to invest up to $100 billion and of course, we were, we were very happy and honored that they invited us, but we will invest one step at a time.” Then Oracle announced that it will do a fundraiser in the form of equity and debt - needs to fund more datacenter build-out. - What happened to the OpenAI $300 Billion committment? - Or is the money that NVDA "committed to OpenAi, that they must have committed to Orcle, not a committment - GIGANTIC CIRCLE JERK Fungus - -Interesting - Did you know? Botrytis cinerea, a fungus causing grey mold, affects grapes by causing bunch rot, ruining fruit in high humidity. - While it often destroys crops, specific dry, warm conditions can transform it into "noble rot," concentrating sugars and creating high-value dessert wines (e.g., Sauternes, Tokaji) with honeyed, raisin-like, and apricot flavors. January Economic Review Employment — Job growth was nearly flat in December, with 50,000 new jobs added and earlier months revised lower. — Unemployment dipped slightly to 4.4%, but it's still higher than it was a year ago. — Long-term unemployment didn't change and remains high, and the labor force participation rate slipped to 62.4%. — Average hourly earnings rose 0.3% in December and are up 3.8% over the past year. — Weekly jobless claims stayed close to last year's levels, showing a labor market that is cooling but not weakening sharply. FOMC / Interest Rates — The Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged at 3.50%–3.75%. — Most policymakers agreed the economy continues to grow at a solid pace, though job gains are slowing and inflation remains above target. — Two committee members supported a small rate cut, but the majority preferred to wait. - Fed Chair Powell: Clearly, a weakening labor market calls for cutting. A stronger labor market says that rates are in a good place. It isn't anyone's base case right now that the next move will be a rate hike. - The economy has once again surprised us with its strength. Consumer spending numbers overall are good, and it looks like growth overall is on a solid footing. - Upside risks to inflation and downside risks to employment have diminished, but hard to say they are fully in balance. We think our policy is in a good place. - Overall, it's a stronger forecast since the Fed's last meeting. Haven't made any decisions about future meetings, but the economy is growing at a solid pace, the unemployment rate is broadly stable and inflation remains somewhat elevated, so we will be looking to our goal variables and letting the data light the way for us. - Most of the overrun in goods prices is from tariffs. We think tariffs are likely to move through, and be a one-time price increase. - Dissent: Miran and Waller (Miran is a admin shill and Waller wanted job as Fed Chair) GDP & Federal Budget — Economic growth remained strong in Q3 2025, with GDP rising at an annualized 4.4% driven by strong spending, higher exports, and reduced imports due to tariffs. — Investment was mixed, with business spending increasing while housing activity declined. — The federal deficit for December rose to $145 billion, though the fiscal year-to-date deficit is slightly smaller than last year. Inflation & Consumer Spending — Personal income and consumer spending rose moderately in October and November. — Inflation, measured by the PCE index, increased 0.2% in both months and roughly 2.7% year-over-year. — The Consumer Price Index rose 0.3% in December, with shelter, food, and energy all contributing. — Producer prices also increased, though 2025 producer inflation slowed compared to 2024.
