Dr. Joseph Moore is a historian who spent a decade testing every financial strategy Americans have ever tried: he Airbnb'd every room in his house, bought land on the moon, founded a cryptocurrency, and invested in a startup that went to zero — to write How to Get Rich in American History: 300 Years of Financial Advice That Worked and Didn't. He started the project as a "lefty humanities professor" trying to prove the American Dream was a myth. Ten years of evidence later, he'd changed his mind completely. We're all about changing your mind when you know better. We get into why the boomer playbook of saving 10% for 40 years would have failed almost half the time since the American Revolution, why health insurance companies run under 3% margins while funeral homes and self-storage run 10-15%, and the five things that actually predict getting ahead. Joseph also tells the real story of how he got rich — including the tenant who turned out to be running a human trafficking operation out of his first rental property, and the two-block real estate bet that nearly bankrupted him before it made him a multimillionaire. The opportunity was never gone, it just takes longer to find than the get-rich-quick books tell you, and it won't be easy or passive. This is an optimistic view of America from a historian who did the research in books and in his own life.

He shares why even the most advanced technology cannot compensate for an undefined sales process or inconsistent leadership.The conversation also explores the growing role of AI, automation, lead scoring, buying signals, and meeting transcripts. Jason offers practical strategies for reducing administrative work, improving follow-up, and helping sales professionals spend more time doing what matters most—building authentic relationships with their customers.KEY TAKEAWAYSShift your CRM mindset from reporting to revenue generation.Technology cannot fix a broken or undefined sales process.Consistent follow-up builds trust and protects customer relationships.Leaders must model CRM adoption and create accountability across the team.Lead scoring and customer insights help prioritize the right opportunities.AI and automation should reduce administrative work—not replace relationships.Ongoing coaching and reinforcement are essential for long-term CRM success.Strong CRM habits improve consistency, productivity, and sales performance.The best CRM is the one your team actually uses every day.HIGHLIGHT QUOTESSelling from the heart is being authentic, honest, and genuine.The tool alone isn't going to solve the problem.I've never met a salesperson that doesn't want to follow up.Software doesn't solve problems. People solve problems.Once you look away, things can go back to bad habits very quickly.ADDITIONAL RESOURCESExplore the secrets of heart-centered leadership and thriving workplace cultures with Culture from the Heart Podcast!

A new Trump family business has some critics concerned about insider trading. AP correspondent Donna Warder reports.

A few months ago, Kelly barely knew what Substack was. Now it's about to cross $100K in added revenue for the business, and she's convinced it can become a multimillion-dollar trust-building funnel. In this episode, she shares where the Substack strategy stands now, why she's genuinely excited about the platform's new updates, and why a platform taking real steps to protect the authenticity of the human voice is something every creator should be celebrating, especially as the other platforms drown in AI slop. Then she gets into the moves she's making next, including betting on her daughter Madison's business by moving it entirely to Substack, and launching two brand-new publications to show the exact same growth model working in completely different niches. If you've been wondering whether Substack could work for your industry, this episode is going to SHOW you rather than TELL you. What's inside: Why the AI scanner's rocky start is still a good sign What actually makes Substack different from every other platform The two new publications we are growing from 0 (and the strategy behind them) Why now is the moment to claim a leadership position on the platform Timestamps 00:00 — The one platform taking steps to protect the human voice 01:00 — The Substack journey and crossing $100K in revenue 03:00 — Substack's new AI scanner and why the inaccuracy doesn't worry Kelly 06:00 — Why Substack is different: authenticity, trust, and depth 08:00 — Moving her daughter's whole business to Substack 12:00 — The monthly campaigns generating hundreds of paid subscribers 13:30 — A publication for parents raising courageous, confident daughters 16:00 — A publication for all things marketing and personal branding, with Danielle 17:30 — How the whole strategy feeds our programs  18:30 — Claim your leadership position on Substack now while the window is open (Resources & Mentions The Sacred Art of Selling (Substack) — Kelly's main publication, which covers business, sales, thought leadership, faith, and Sacred Art of Selling book updates: https://kellyroachofficial.substack.com/subscribe  Founder Girl (Substack) — Kelly's new parenting publication on raising confident, courageous kids with real-world skills; monthly playbooks and livestreams with Madison for parents of girls ages 7–17: https://foundergirl.substack.com/subscribe  Worth the Follow (Substack) — Danielle's new publication on building a standout personal brand in 2026: https://worththefollow.substack.com/subscribe  Learn more about The Virtual Business School (VBS) membership: https://www.virtualbusinessschool.com/virtual-business-school  Conviction Marketing: Kelly's book on building a conviction-based brand without chasing trends or algorithms: https://a.co/d/09RHa4jv

Despite near-universal condemnation from the rest of the soccer world, the head of FIFA has yet to back down from a controversial plan to sell off a stake in the World Cup. With all eyes on cross-border trade, U.S. officials reject the automated inspections used on some Canadian rail lines. And Canada's human inspectors are applauding that rejection. Scientists in China conclude that extremely spicy food might act as a temporary pain reliever. But at least one guest from our archives would likely disagree. Alberta borrows the zero-tolerance approach its used for rats and hogs — and sends some furry new recruits in to keep invasive bivalves out of the province. A northern B.C. lacrosse team was all set to compete in the provincial championships this week — only to have the rug pulled out from under them at the last minute. At an international conference, the U.S. State Department displays a map of Africa that has the countries in the wrong place — putting the "nation" in "indignation".As It Happens, the Friday Edition. Radio that serves up a continental dog's breakfast.

In an AI-driven world, expertise alone isn't enough. Jeff, Jason, and Mat Zucker explore why professional services firms must move beyond trust to build buyer belief and win more business. The post Selling Belief with Mat Zucker from Prophet appeared first on Rattle and Pedal.

In This Episode Of Business Lunch: A Hartford Financial study found that 75% of business owners regret selling their company. Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss have both lived it, and they get personal about what the wire does not fix: the identity you give up with the business, the buyer promises that rarely survive the close, and why more than half of sellers wind up swooping back in.

You're losing deals before minute 10 because your discovery call feels like an interrogation or a demo. In this episode, Jen Allen-Knuth breaks down her exact playbook, including:

Why isn't your retreat filling? It's one of the questions I get asked more than any other. And while marketing has changed dramatically since this episode first aired-with AI, SEO, and new ways people discover retreats-the core reasons retreats don't fill are surprisingly the same. That's why I'm bringing back this Throwback Thursday episode. In this conversation, I break down the most common reasons retreat leaders struggle to enroll guests and, more importantly, what you can do about it. We cover everything from mindset and messaging to marketing, pricing, and positioning because filling a retreat is never just about posting more on social media. In this episode, you'll learn: Why your belief in your retreat matters more than you think How niching down helps you attract the right guests The importance of writing copy that speaks directly to your ideal attendee Common marketing mistakes that prevent retreats from filling Why lead time matters How pricing, timing, and perceived value all work together If you've ever launched a retreat and heard nothing but crickets, this episode will help you identify where things may be breaking down. The strategies may be timeless- but they still work. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why retreat marketing starts with mindset How to identify and attract your ideal retreat guest Common retreat marketing mistakes Why your messaging may not be connecting The importance of retreat pricing and positioning How to create a stronger retreat value proposition Why visibility takes time Key Takeaways Belief Comes Before Bookings If you don't believe your retreat is worth attending, your audience will feel that. Stop Marketing to Everyone The more specific your audience, the stronger your marketing becomes. Your Copy Matters People don't buy itineraries. They buy outcomes and transformation. Marketing Takes Time One of the biggest mistakes retreat leaders make is starting their marketing too late. Visibility compounds over time. There Is Never Just One Reason Pricing, messaging, timing, audience, marketing, and mindset all work together. Improving just one area may not be enough.   The Retreat Leaders Podcast Resources and Links: Join our Mastermind in Austin!

Why do we size up a rude stranger in seconds and decide they don't belong in our "tribe"? Dr. Benjamin Granger has a term for it: the evolutionary hangover — his phrase for the cognitive biases our brains evolved for savanna survival and never quite retired. As Chief Workplace Psychologist at Qualtrics, Granger spends his days distilling billions of data points on how employees and customers really feel, and in this episode he brings that same lens to his new USA Today bestseller, A Leader Worth Following. The conversation moves from the biological to the deeply practical. Granger traces human speech back only 100,000–200,000 years — a blink in evolutionary time — to explain why we still assume our texts and emails land exactly as intended, and why they so often don't. He and host Peter Winick dig into a favorite (and least favorite) example: the customer satisfaction survey. Whether it's a car dealership coaching you to "circle the five" or a flight attendant joking about the inevitable post-flight survey, Granger shows how well-established science like goal-setting theory gets bent out of shape the moment it collides with real incentive structures. There's also a candid look at what it takes to write a book while holding down a demanding day job — from years of scattered iPhone notes to a publisher's cold outreach that landed within days of deciding to write one. Granger and Winick talk through the tension every corporate thought leader faces: how do you promote your ideas without it feeling like self-promotion? Granger's answer — "I'm selling the message, not myself" — anchors a broader discussion of why academic rigor and real-world readability don't have to be at odds. The episode closes on a personal note: Granger's hope that more leaders will get comfortable with hard conversations with themselves, and a few concrete ways to start — from a two-minute daily reflection borrowed from Marshall Goldsmith to a monthly sit-down with your future self. If you've ever wondered why your best-intentioned message got read the wrong way, or why your company's survey scores don't tell the real story, this one's for you. Three Key Takeaways: • Our brains are running outdated software. Granger's "evolutionary hangover" concept explains why we instantly judge people as "abrasive" or "rude" — a tribal survival instinct that made sense on the savanna but creates friction in modern offices and customer interactions. • Good science can get gamed by bad incentives. Goal-setting is one of the most well-established practices in organizational psychology, but Granger shows how tying compensation to survey scores (like a car dealership's NPS rating) corrupts the very measurement it's supposed to improve. • Selling ideas isn't the same as selling yourself. Granger reframes self-promotion as message-promotion — a mental shift that let him push through years of book marketing discomfort because he believes the underlying research deserves to reach people. Ben isn't the only one turning years of hard-won research into a book built to scale. Bill Sherman, Peter Winick, and Naren Aryal have just released The Thought Leadership Handbook: How the Experts Elevate Their Big Ideas—and How You Can Too — a field guide drawn from more than 700 conversations on this very podcast, mapping out the frameworks and five "thought leadership avatars" that separate an idea stuck in your head from one that actually reaches an audience. If Ben's path from scattered iPhone notes to a USA Today bestseller has you thinking about your own expertise, this is the next book on your list.

Most sales problems start when the seller won't stop talking. Mark Roberge (HubSpot's founding CRO, Harvard Business School lecturer, and co-founder of Stage 2 Capital) joins Matt and Luigi to challenge the loudest myths in sales and startup growth. His take is simple: great selling is not about pressure, slick pitches, or talking someone into a bad deal.    It's about asking better questions, finding the real problem, and knowing when to walk away. The conversation also tackles a mistake that kills promising companies: scaling before customers are getting real value. Mark breaks down why rising revenue can fool founders, how to test product-market fit, and what must be true before a business earns the right to grow faster.

Vertical specialization is one of the most reliable ways to raise both growth and valuation in IT services M&A. In Episode 254 of Shoot the Moon, we break down how focusing on one or two industry verticals, and building the sales team to match, makes an IT services firm worth more to buyers. Most IT services firms start as generalists because it is the fastest path to revenue. But in a market where AI is commoditizing technical skill, domain expertise is what buyers and clients pay for. We cover why vertical focus shortens sales cycles and lifts valuation, how the hunter and farmer sales roles work, and how to compensate and hire for a vertical model. We close with three practical steps you can take this week to find and commit to the right vertical. CHAPTERS Timestamps are approximate and must be verified against the final edit. 0:00 Cold open and intro 4:05 Specialize, verticalize, productize: the framework 7:00 Why vertical expertise matters more in the age of AI 9:30 Why most IT services firms default to generalist 12:30 What verticalizing takes, and the payoff 16:50 The sales team: hunters, farmers, and support roles Revenue Rocket Consulting Group | Shoot the Moon Episode 254 20:40 Hiring for a vertical: fish where the fish are 24:10 Compensating hunters vs farmers 28:00 What buyers see: vertical focus and valuation 32:40 Where to start this week 35:30 Wrap-up KEY TAKEAWAYS  AI is commoditizing technical skill, so domain expertise is the differentiator buyers pay for.  A vertical focus shortens sales cycles, sharpens marketing, and tends to lift valuation.  Selling is a team sport: hunters win new logos, farmers grow accounts, with a handoff inside the first 12 months.  Concentrating in a vertical is a strength; depending on a few clients is a risk buyers discount.  Start by analyzing where your revenue already concentrates, then commit to a market you are passionate about.

Selling a business is one of the largest financial events many entrepreneurs will ever experience... But most owners spend years building their company without spending nearly enough time planning how they'll eventually leave it. Jeremiah and Nic discuss why successful business exits begin long before a purchase offer arrives. They explain why business owners should start planning two to three years before selling, the importance of obtaining a professional business valuation, preparing financial records for buyer due diligence, building enterprise value instead of simply generating income, and coordinating your CPA, attorney, valuation specialist, and financial advisor throughout the process. They also share real client examples that illustrate the dramatic difference between proactive planning and trying to figure everything out after the sale has already occurred. The guys also explore why nearly 92% of small businesses never actually sell, common succession planning mistakes, and why many owners underestimate the value they've spent decades creating. Listeners will hear practical discussions about treating a business as an investment asset, creating retirement income after a liquidity event, and avoiding costly tax mistakes once a large lump sum is received. Jeremiah and Nic cover advanced tax planning strategies, including donor-advised funds, managing large capital gains, charitable giving, and the distinction between ordinary income and capital gains taxation. For business owners and self-employed professionals, the hosts review tax-saving opportunities available through SEP IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, Solo 401(k)s, Cash Balance Plans, Mega Backdoor Roth strategies, S-Corp elections, bonus depreciation, and other planning ideas that can help reduce taxes while building long-term wealth.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com ————————————————————— Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

Send us Fan MailHe went from a foreclosed first home to negotiating $20M-plus deals in the Las Vegas luxury real estate market and he didn't get there by pretending it was easy. We sit down with Kamron, founder and CEO of Luxury Estates International (LEI), to unpack the setbacks that forced him to rebuild twice, the habits that kept him in the game, and the moments that reshaped his entire career trajectory. We get specific about what actually works when the market turns: how he moved from open houses and early struggle into the REO and bank-owned property wave, what it felt like to scale fast, and why losing that business exposed the risks of relying on one income stream. Kamron shares the money lessons most high earners learn too late, including taxes, saving, and why passive income matters if you want to survive real estate cycles without burning out. Then we shift into the world of high-end clients and multimillion-dollar listings. Kamron explains why luxury is not just a price point, it is language and credibility: understanding architects, materials, finishes, and smart home technology so you can speak with confidence in rooms full of accomplished people. We also talk about the Las Vegas luxury boom, feeder markets like California and Seattle, iconic communities like The Ridges and Summit Club, and why he built LEI as an independent boutique brokerage with a long-term vision for a trusted international network. If you care about entrepreneurship, sales, luxury branding, or the Las Vegas housing market, hit play and take notes.

Shawn and Nellie Petersen are some of the best when it comes to selling mules. They take pride in complete honesty and integrity and know how to get a mule broke.

Danielle Vandehei is a world-schooling sailor mum who, with her husband and son, spent the last four years building a life around sailing, exploration and learning through experience.Danielle shares how a breaking point on land — a demanding job, a young child, and a longing for more intentional time together — pushed the family to sell their home, their farm animals, and nearly everything they owned to learn to sail from scratch. She's honest about the messy, non-linear reality behind that decision: budget overruns, a house that took a year to sell, a stint in a minivan through Mexico, and plenty of "we're not in alignment yet, that's okay" moments along the way.How does education actually works aboard their boat — starting not with a curriculum, but with deschooling themselves as parents first. Danielle explains how her son learns numbers through fishing, reading through his fish identification book, and social confidence through navigating world-school hubs full of kids of every age and language.Danielle has created Water World Micro Expeditions, the family's new venture inviting other families aboard to experience sailing, marine life, and reconnection with nature in San Blas, Panama — plus where their vision is headed next.Key TakeawaysDeschool the parent first. Before a child can learn differently, the adult often has to unlearn their own assumptions about what "proper" education looks like.Follow the interest, not the age bracket. Danielle's son learns to read through a fish identification book and does mental math through abacus — because those are his interests, not a set curriculum.Learning is 0 to 99, not 5 to 18. There's no finish line — removing the pressure of a deadline changes how both kids and adults relate to learning.Nothing about this life was linear. Selling a 40-acre property took eight months; the house took a year to sell; they went from camper to minivan to boat and back again. Alignment came in its own time.Resilience is the standout FIRE value here — the willingness to stay in motion through setbacks (a blown transmission, a slow house sale) rather than let fear shut the plan down.Social confidence grows through real exposure, not curriculum: Danielle's son now approaches kids and adults of any age or language unprompted, something she attributes directly to years of varied, real-world interaction.Community over content. Water World Micro Expeditions isn't about replicating school on a boat — it's about giving families a lived experience of sailing, marine life, and reconnecting with themselves and each other.Chapters:00:02 - Introduction to World Schooling04:15 - Transition to a New Way of Living09:51 - Transitioning to a New Lifestyle16:38 - Deschooling and Adapting to New Learning Environments27:47 - Nurturing Well-Being in Education34:22 - Connecting with Nature and Learning through Experience37:50 - Building a Vision for Water Worldhttps://waterworldmicroexpeditions.com/Facebook Danielle Marie VandeheiIG- Legacy_throughmotherhood

Andrea Faulkner Williams is the head mama and co-founder of Tubby Todd Bath Co., which she launched with her husband, Brian Todd, as a solution to her own family's sensitive skin in 2014. For years her family struggled with dryness and eczema, and smooth skin always seemed impossibly out of reach. It was frustrating spending money on one product after another that wasn't helpful, clean, or safe for their little ones. Out of those discouragements came a drive and passion to create clean bath and skincare staples and they spent years developing products and testing them in their own home. Since then, Tubby Todd has grown into an entire line of body care basics. She lives in San Diego with her husband and four little ones.In This Conversation We Discuss:00:00 Introduction01:58 The entrepreneurial dream that started it all04:06 Launching with zero money and no retail shelf04:39 How her husband got the idea from his job06:42 Skipping retail to build direct on Shopify08:30 Sponsor: IntelliGems10:22 What "community-based brands" really means12:22 Why small goals matter more than big ones12:53 Landing as the #1 baby skincare brand14:49 Sponsor: Klaviyo17:24 Balancing family while building a business18:57 Biggest hiring mistakes and lessons learned19:41 Why you should fire people faster20:55 Sponsor: eFulfillment Service21:45 The hardest part of entrepreneurship: building a team23:26 Staying humble and not letting ego run the team24:34 Callouts24:44 Why employment tenure makes you a better founder27:21 Not needing a radical idea, just a better one28:05 Selling 70% of the company to private equity30:01 Starting something new always feels uncomfortable32:35 Breaking down the best-selling three-step bundle33:17 How to connect and where to find Tubby ToddResources:Subscribe to Honest Ecommerce on YoutubeGentle Baby Skincare for Sensitive Skin tubbytodd.com/Follow Andrea Faulkner linkedin.com/in/andreafaulknerwilliams  Book a demo today at intelligems.io/Get your free demo klaviyo.com/honestLower scale costs today eFulfillmentService.com/honest  If you're enjoying the show, we'd love it if you left Honest Ecommerce a review on Apple Podcasts.

Selling an IT services company is far more likely to close and typically sells for about 20% more when you use a specialist M&A advisor instead of going it alone. Here is what the data shows and what an advisor actually does to improve the outcome. In this episode of Shoot the Moon, the Revenue Rocket team breaks down the real economics of IT services M&A: why most owner-led sales never close, how an advisor adds roughly 20% to the sale price, and what makes selling an MSP, cybersecurity, cloud, or software firm different.

Jim Effner is a master sales trainer, author, and founder of P2P Group, where he helps financial advisors and agency leaders achieve stronger results through mindset mastery, proven sales systems, and intentional communication.A former top producer at Northwestern Mutual, Jim now trains financial professionals across the country to develop greater consistency, confidence, and mastery in their sales careers. He is also the author of Bridge Your Gap: Sales Strategies and Systems for Becoming a Top Financial Advisor.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of Selling from the Heart, Larry Levine and Darrell Amy welcome Jim Effner to explore why sustainable sales success requires more than motivation, natural ability, or increased activity. It requires a proven system, disciplined habits, and a commitment to continually practice your craft.Jim explains how a reliable process helps salespeople stop operating according to their mood, energy, or confidence level. He also introduces the idea of becoming “professionally perturbed”—reaching the point where inconsistent performance is no longer acceptable and meaningful change becomes necessary.The conversation explores mastery, accountability, intentional questioning, and authentic relationship-building. Jim shares that prospects need to feel three things: that they can trust you, that you genuinely care, and that you have the knowledge to help them. When those qualities are combined with a proven system and consistent practice, sales professionals can close the gap between their current results and their true potential.KEY TAKEAWAYSStop winging it. Sales results become unpredictable when your actions depend on how you feel that day.Commit to a proven system that creates consistency, sustainability, and a clear path forward.Become “professionally perturbed” enough to stop accepting inconsistent performance.Remember that simple does not mean easy. Mastery still requires discipline, repetition, and effort.Schedule time to practice your sales skills instead of relying only on experience.Create accountability that measures your ability to apply what you have learned.Help prospects feel that they can trust you, that you care, and that you are knowledgeable.Avoid chasing every new sales trend. Choose a proven system, commit to it, and refine it over time.Bring intentionality to every conversation instead of relying on improvisation.HIGHLIGHT QUOTESSystems allow a sales professional to get out of their own way.If you're going to be great in sales, you've got to spend some time working on your art.The moment you find yourself wanting something more for them than they want for themselves, you're dead.Intentionality means the opposite, or the antithesis, of winging it.There's a big difference between easy and simple.ADDITIONAL RESOURCESExplore the secrets of heart-centered leadership and thriving workplace cultures with Culture from the Heart Podcast!

We've reached the midway point of 2026, and with six months of housing market data to pull from, one thing is clear: the headlines don't match reality. The media is full of economic uncertainty, global conflict, and even housing crash predictions. But the actual data points to something else entirely. The 2026 housing market? It's surprisingly stable. No, there isn't a ton of activity. Interest rates remain elevated. We're still in the “Great Stall.” But things are more predictable. And that's all investors need to make informed decisions. Not to mention, there's a third factor—a silver lining—that not nearly enough real estate investors are paying attention to. You won't see it reflected in the data, but investors are scooping up real estate deals at massive discounts. To be clear, this isn't happening in every market. But if it's happening in yours—or a market you're targeting—the next six months could be your window to buy rental properties at prices we might not see again. In This Episode We Cover Why homes are selling for much less than the average sale price suggests The single biggest opportunity for real estate investors in 2026 The markets with the highest percentage of seller concessions right now Updated risk report: what's the likelihood of a housing crash? The often-overlooked benefits of buying in a “boring” housing market And So Much More!

In this episode of The Dept. Omar sits down with Macy McNeely for a powerful conversation on why so many entrepreneurs struggle with sales and what actually makes people buy. Macy breaks down why most business owners are too focused on explaining what they do instead of communicating what people get out of what they do. She explains why people need to feel something before they can understand something, why over-explaining can flatten emotion, and why the best salespeople know how to direct energy instead of dominate it. You'll learn how to make people care about what you sell, how to communicate value without sounding desperate, how to use stories to shift beliefs, and why persuasion is not just something you do it is a place you operate from. If you want to stop over-explaining, sell with more certainty, and help people feel the value of what you offer, this episode is a must-watch.

In today's episode, I sit down with entrepreneur and inventor Sylvester Raymond, founder of Piñata Digital Marketing and Signal to Sale, to talk about building technology that solves real business problems. We discuss why humility creates opportunities, how listening to experienced mentors can change the direction of a company, and the challenge of explaining complex technology in simple terms. Sylvester shares how his ad-free monetization platform evolved into Signal to Sale, a system that helps businesses identify buyers at the right moment instead of wasting time on cold prospecting. We also explore AI, predictive data, sales timing, and revenue velocity.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
