In this episode of The Brilliant Body Podcast, host Ali Mezey, co-producer Florence Popoff and guest Karen Bellone discuss the often avoided topics of death, dying, and the natural capability of the body. They explore deep-seated fears surrounding death, how modern society is distanced from it, and the importance of having open conversations about mortality - of humans and other animals. They also dive into the idea of conscious living and dying, the discrepancies in generational attitudes toward death, and how engaging with the natural cycles of life can expand awareness. Reflective of cultural beliefs and personal experiences, this episode encourages listeners to open up and discuss these difficult yet enriching topics.MORE ALI MEZEY:Website:  www.alimezey.comPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course information:www.alimezey.com/personal-geometry-foundationsTransgenerational Healing Films: www.constellationarts.comMORE FLORENCE POPOFF:Website: www.gamriegardens.comInstagram: @gamriegardensMORE KAREN BELLONE:The Seventh Sense website: www.theseventhsense.orgFilm Website: www.kbfilms.comBIO:Founder, Doula, Educator: Karen Bellone, MFA, is a Certified End-of-Life Doula and Death Educator.

Prior to embracing her passion for end-of-life work, Karen has had a long career as an award-winning filmmaker and internationally collected photographer. She received a BFA in Film Production from New York University, and did graduate work with the world-renowned Actors Studio, through their inaugural program at the New School for Social Research.After training and becoming certified with INELDA (International End of Life Doula Association), Karenworked with an innovative hospice in Los Angeles where her skills as a death doula were developed and broadened. In addition to working with patients in various stages of their life journeys, she was responsible for training the volunteer staff, nurses and other hospice and medical professionals to bring more understanding, humanity and compassion into their work with the dying. She spoke regularly with groups, such as the Alzheimer's Project, about the role of the doula at end-of-life, and the space that can be held to bring about ‘a good death'. She believes strongly in the ability to demystify and assuage the fear that surrounds death in our culture and to foster safe passage for the dying, as well as to aid the families and loved ones through grief and bereavement.As a visual artist and storyteller, Karen acquired a multitude of skills throughout her career that unlocked a deep passion for the healing power of visual and auditory perception on human consciousness. She integrated these strengths and resources into tools to bring aid and comfort for those imminently facing their mortality. Working with somatic and sensory awareness, Karen utilizes visual, sound and meditation therapy, personalized guided imagery, and commemoration of the sacred in the form of ritual, legacy and memory work, in order to bring comfort - physically, emotionally, spiritually to celebrate and commemorate the life of the individual. In addition to her ongoing private practice, Karen is currently directing a feature film about living American artist Michelle Stuart, whose work also engages with the elemental and ineffable nature of existence.RESOURCES:Edgar Allan PoeExit strategy for dying (Karen's monthly newsletter)All the Little DeathsAllen GinsbergKaren's Episode A 'Good Death', Death Doula: Embracing Life & Mortality PART ONEIn Buddhism, death is viewed as a natural part of the life cycle and an opportunity for spiritual growth. The concept is deeply intertwined with the notions of impermanence (anicca) and rebirth (samsara). Rather than being an end, death is seen as a transition, where the energy of one's consciousness continues in a new form, influenced by karma—the cumulative effects of one's actions, thoughts, and intentions. The ultimate goal is to break free from the cycle of death and rebirth through enlightenment, which means reaching a state of liberation (nirvana) where the mind is free from suffering and attachment. Mindfulness and acceptance of death are considered essential practices, as they help individuals live more fully and prepare for the moment of death with clarity and peace.Green burial is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional burial practices that emphasizes simplicity, sustainability, and minimal impact on the earth. It typically involves using biodegradable materials, avoiding embalming chemicals, and opting for natural settings like conservation areas or designated green cemeteries. The goal is to allow the body to decompose naturally, returning nutrients to the soil, and preserving the surrounding ecosystem.Lambing season in Scotland, typically from March to May, is a busy and vital time on farms, as thousands of lambs are born each spring. This period is crucial for the meat industry, with farmers carefully tending to both ewes and newborns to ensure their health and growth. While lambing is often seen as a symbol of renewal and the start of spring, it is also a time of intense labor and long days for shepherds, who balance the joy of new life with the practical realities of raising livestock for food production.A Dream Within a DreamBY EDGAR ALLAN POETake this kiss upon the brow!And, in parting from you now,Thus much let me avow —You are not wrong, who deemThat my days have been a dream;Yet if hope has flown awayIn a night, or in a day,In a vision, or in none,Is it therefore the less gone?

THIS IS PART TWO - Listen to part one hereCONTENT HEADS UP:  This episode contains discussions of death, dying, end-of-life care, and sensitive topics related to mortality, including chosen suicide and medicalization of death and illness. Listener discretion is advised, especially for individuals who may find these topics distressing or triggering. Please prioritize your emotional well-being while engaging with this content.Also, Ali wants to note that when she asks Karen about her thoughts on suicide, she meant to make a disctinction between “chosen” suicide (when someone wants to live but they are in too much physical pain/their body is too deteriorated without hope of recovery) and “suicide under duress” (meaning due to emotional/psychological/spiritual pain, that may or may not be accompanied by an unavoidably dying body, the person does not want to live). Of course facing a death someone does not want can also be considered duress!  SYNOPSIS:What does good acting and dying have in common?

They focus on the interconnectedness of life and death, the significance of conscious living, and the complexities of end-of-life care. Karen shares her experiences working with dying individuals, highlighting the challenges of the dying process, including issues related to dementia and Alzheimer's. They discuss the importance of compassionate and holistic approaches to end-of-life care, emphasizing the need for conscious decision-making aligned with personal values to achieve a good death without regrets. Throughout the conversation, they reflect on the essence of embodiment and the importance of being present in the moment, trusting the intelligence of the body to embrace a richer life and ultimately a better death.  ALI & KAREN EXPLORATION POINTS:-  The concept of a 'good death,' this discussion emphasizes the significance of conscious decision-making and holistic approaches to end-of-life care, challenging societal norms and perceptions surrounding death.  -  The complexities, ethical considerations and medicalization surrounding end-of-life decisions, highlighting the need for open dialogue and support for individuals facing such choices.-  The role of a Death Doula, illuminating the profound support and guidance provided by these compassionate professionals in assisting individuals and families through the dying process, fostering a sense of empowerment and comfort.-  How our physical and emotional bodies communicate and play integral roles in the dying process, highlighting the importance of listening to and honoring the body's wisdom. -  Insights into embracing conscious living, pursuing meaningful experiences, and aligning actions with personal values to cultivate a sense of fulfillment and purpose.-  Sensory experiences shape our perception of life and death, emphasizing the significance of sensory elements in the dying process and fostering connections with loved ones.To be an angel to the podcast, click here: To read more about the podcast, click here: MORE ALI MEZEY:Website:  Personal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course information:Transgenerational Healing Films: MORE KAREN BELLONE:Film Website: Website: The Seventh Sense BIO:Founder, Doula, Educator: Karen Bellone, MFA, is a Certified End-of-Life Doula and Death Educator.

I had a chance to interview William Duggan, professor at Columbia Business School and author of Strategic Intuition. He explained how Kendo led him to his big idea, the difference between creative/strategic intuition and expert intuition (with examples including Howard Schultz, Henry Ford, and Elizabeth Holmes), and the roles of memory, passion, and presence of mind. Quotes that stuck with me: There is no now. Everything is history. … There is no other guide to the future. You don't have to have the passion before you have the idea. The idea gives you the passion. Oh great, this is what I'm gonna do. How do you judge an idea when you have it? Is it based on real knowledge and experience? Real pieces of the puzzle. That's how you judge. The moment you step into the battle, you forget everything. Meaning that you let your brain make the correct connections. That's the presence of mind, where your mind is clear. In martial arts, it's very fast, but it's really the same idea. It's to clear your mind and let your brain make its own connections, according to the situation and the circumstances. A lot of people think Henry Ford invented the assembly line. He did not. The assembly line was invented a hundred years before, at the start of the Industrial Revolution. He invented a certain kind of assembly line, meaning he put together the old assembly line with something new. I like to distinguish the natural flash of insight … Steve Jobs was good at it. He'd search and search and search and then something would strike him. I don't know if you know about the origin of Starbucks. Howard Schultz was working for a coffee company, high quality coffee, where you fill up your bag and take the coffee beans home. He goes to Milan for the first time in his life and he sees the coffee bar and he says, oh, okay, well we should clearly convert all our stores into that.

What's up everyone,If you haven't checked out our previous 3 episodes in our AI series you might want to before this episode, we give you a lot of context around some of the events that have happened and will shape the conversation today.So basically How fast could AI change or replace marketing jobs? How marketers can stay informed and become AI fluent Exploring new paths to future-proof your marketing career in the age of AI Today we're diving into specific tools… there's a lot of noise out there right now.What tools you should play around withIn TMW #107 | ChatGPT and the artificial marketer, Juan Mendoza explains that“...generative AI tools are already everywhere. From text generation to video and audio production, to image creation, there's a thriving industry of technologies taking small slices out of our creative talents, packaging them up, and selling them as a SaaS product on a recurring revenue model. If you're wanting to stay relevant five years from now in the marketing technology industry, you're probably going to have to learn some of these platforms. In 2010 we used to say: “there's an app for that”. In 2023, we will be saying: “there's an AI for that.””OutlineHere are some of the topics for this third AI episode: Key AI technology definitions and how to differentiate real AI tools vs all the noise out there Deep dive into tools Content marketing tools Email and marketing automation tools Predictive analytics tools Text to presentation and pitch deck tools 3D animation tools for product marketers Sales and outreach tools Text to website creator tools Ad and social creative tools AutoGPT and AI agents And a bunch of other tools like conversational search engines, 1-1 convos with celebrities and an even longer list of honorable mentions  Here's today's main takeaway:The key to future proofing your marketing career with the ever changing AI landscape is to stay curious, get your hands dirty and experiment fearlessly: Fill out some forms, spin up free trials, get on wait lists, and give new AI tools a chance. It's only by actually getting your hands dirty that you'll discover which tools truly work for you and which are just part of the ever growing sea of gimmicky AI tools.Definition of tech termsI'll be using some of these terms throughout my analysis of some of these tools so here's a primer explaining the three most common AI technologies used for marketing applications: MLMachine Learning): ML is a way to teach computers to learn by themselves, without having to be programmed for every task. They learn from examples and data patterns to make predictions or decisions. Applications include segmentation, predictive analytics and propensity models. NLPNatural Language Processing: NLP is a subset of ML and focuses on enabling computers to understand, interpret, and generate human language. Includes sentiment analysis, machine translation, named entity recognition, text summarization, and more. NLP techniques usually helps computers understand and communicate with humans using everyday language. GNNGraph Neural Network: GNN also a subset of ML is a type of neural network that aims to handle graph-structured data, data organized like a network or web of connected points. Applications include analyzing relationships between different things like users in a social network or users in your database or recommending additional products based on past purchase history. Real AI vs noisePart of the reason AI gets a really bad rep, especially in martech, is that anything that's built on if statements or simple Javascript logic gets called AI. There's still plenty of AI startups that shout about their proprietary AI when it's probably just a few decision trees and a few interns running spreadsheets.Now though, you have an even bigger bucket of noise that's essentially “slight tweak on Chat-GPT”. Developing AI that was comparable to human performance was a challenging feat prior to GPT's arrival. To achieve this level of sophistication, a company would have had to: make a substantial investment, amounting to millions of dollars developing its own algorithms performing extensive data cleanup But it's so easy now because GPT is so good out of the box. Allen Cheng puts it simply. Starting a new AI venture can be achieved by simply assembling a few elements:  a product developed on GPT-4's user-friendly API a website,  and a marketing campaign.  This is why we're seeing hundreds of AI tolls pop up every week.A lot of these GPT-based products are pretty much indistinguishable from one another. Maybe a handful  have a significant advantage over others but most are gimmicky. And over the next few months, every tool is going to be integrating ChatGPT features inside their products in the hopes of making it stickier.The threat of GPT-nThe part that I find trickiest and the most discouraging about building anything on top of GPT is that any progress you make on fine tuning GPT-4 will totally be wiped out by GPT-5 or GPT-n… Kind of like we talked about in a previous episode with all the tools GPT's plugins killed. So let's cut through the noise and dive into legit AI tools, the ones you should be playing with and experimenting. Content marketing toolsCopy.ai and Jasperhttps://copy.ai/ https://jasper.ai/ AI text generators are very common these days, the two most popular tools, especially for marketers are Copy.ai and Jasper. Both allow you to bypass the initial stage of writing where you face a blank page. The promise of these tools is that they help you in generating ideas, saving time on brainstorming and drafting, and ensuring a consistent production flow, freeing you to focus on higher-level strategic tasks, original research, and connecting with your audience.I've played around with both Jasper and Copy.ai before ChatGPT came out… and they were super unique. But both Copy.ai and Jasper are built on top of GPT, they essentially rent usage of the platform. So they built a pretty nice UI on top of GPT… but now that ChatGPT came out, I'm sure they've seen a drop in usage. Plus GPT-4 is 3 times more expensive.They still offer marketing specific value though and can get you up to speed faster than using CGPT in the form of templates, prompts and workflows. Both are super powerful, you could make a case that Jasper outshines its counterpart a bit, especially on the longer content format but it's also way more expensive. Miguel Rebelo from Zapier has a solid breakdown comparison here https://zapier.com/blog/jasper-vs-copy-ai/ GramarlyGOhttps://www.grammarly.com/grammarlygo Grammarly, the popular spelling and grammar checker which has been using AI for over a decade already, also entered the generative AI niche last month unveiling GrammarlyGO. You guessed it, built on GPT. It has a particular advantage because Grammarly is already widely used and this is just an extra feature so to speak. Instead of just checking your grammar it can now also help you with drafting documents, composing and responding to emails, editing writing for tone, clarity, and length, and brainstorming ideas or outlines for projects within the apps you're already working in. Lots of tools are going the Grammarly route in adding GPT features to their product, like Notion and more recently Superhuman.Other AI writing toolsSome of these specialize in SEO, some in long form content, some in short form… they all do similar things:Copysmith https://copysmith.ai/ Anyword https://anyword.com/ Writesonic https://writesonic.com/Copymatic https://copymatic.ai/ Yaara https://www.yaara.ai/ Rytr https://rytr.me/ Frase https://frase.io/ EmailEmail is just a channel of potential generative content tools so it's not totally distinguishable from the tools we chatted about in the content category. Chances are that the Marketing Automation platform or the customer engagement platform you're already using as a suite of features they are throwing AI next to. Most of these though are just ML.  Some tools like Iterable and Braze have propensity models to find users that are likely to perform a purchase event, that's ML, and it's only based on your data set.  Some tools like Seventh Sense throw AI in front of Send Time Optimization features, these have been around for a long time and are only based on your recipients. This is also ML.  Some tools throw AI in front of Sentiment Analysis features allowing you to analyze and classify the emotional tone of text into useful data. This is a subset of NLP that uses ML. Some tools like 6sense throw AI in front of conversational email assistants that are supposed to be a step up from static drip emails sequences. This is also a form of NLP and generative AI. You're likely to start seeing copy assistants and additional AI features powered on GPT inside of these tools. I wanted to chat about one product that I feel like stands out from others in terms of being built around AI rather than it simply being a feature on the side.Persadohttps://www.persado.com/ One example I've seen (but haven't used myself) of a CEP using more advanced AI is a tool called Persado. The two co-founders are former founders of Upstream in the mobile marketing space. Similar to 6sense's conversational email platform, they've been around for a decade and they claim to leverage NLP + ML to create, optimize, and personalize engagement messaging. So they essentially analyze a bunch of data and identify the most effective emotions, CTAs, language, phrases to drive engagement. It's worth calling it out because it's more than just predicting user behavior and optimizing the best time to send a message, it takes it a step further by also incorporating NLP techniques, understanding the nuances of human language, and generating custom marketing messages that resonate with a unique user. One thing that makes Persado unique is it's not built on GPT, it has its own model that's trained on more than 100 billion digital business language impressions across industries. Potentially less data points than GPT but arguably better and more relevant impressions. As Lisa Spira, VP of Content Intelligence at Persado explains in an interview with Martechseries, “models like OpenAI's ChatGPT are trained on the entire “Wild West” of the Internet, so their results, while delivered confidently by the model, can be riddled with inaccuracies, or even offensive content”. She adds that “Generative AI tools might be capable of writing anything, but we're able to cut through that noise, and train our generative AI to write in a way that motivates recipients to take actions: to open an email, convert on a shopping cart webpage, or stop scrolling and click on a social media ad.”And not just generative AI. Persado is pushing a term called Motivation AI and they have a really cool example of it. Let's say you're in D2C and you're selling sweaters. Generative AI gives you level 1 and 2 content which is Intelligibility and Relevance so it might spit out content like: Sweaters are a knitted garment that usually have long sleeves and are designed to be worn over other clothing In the fall, sweaters provide an extra layer of warmth in the cooler temperatures. They are stylish choice for fall fashion because they come in a variety of colors and styles But the next stage of this is including Emotion to get an output like this:You're going to love these cozy sweaters for fallAnd the following stage, where Persado claims to play is Motivation where you would get an output like this:A cozy invitation: indulge in our luxuriously soft sweaters this fallNow this might all be semantics. I'd argue that with great prompting you can get to generative content that includes motivation and emotion. Optimovehttps://www.optimove.com/ This tool could actually go in the CRM, the CDP or even the email category with the acquisitions they've made in the last few years but another name that I've heard a few times is Optimove. They play in the enterprise arena and primarily serve retailers and gaming operators but they have an interesting suite of AI tools for marketers. I've personally not used the tool but they claim to provide personalized recommendation campaign orchestration with their AI-based marketing bot (Optibot). It provides what they call self-optimizing campaigns that are essentially advanced A/B/n campaign testing that automatically serves the best treatment to individual customers through the use of ML. Source: https://www.optimove.com/pdf/Optimove-Product-Features.pdf Predictive AnalyticsPredictive analytics is a super cool niche of AI application. It essentially enables us to anticipate trends and patterns of consumer behavior based on a bunch of user data. Done right, you can do cool things like uncover users ready to buy amongst a sea of tire kickers, find free users primed for upsells and anticipate customers about to churn.Vidora Cortex (mParticle Intelligent Attributes)https://www.vidora.com/platform/ I wanted to start by calling out a few no-code / low-code predictive analytics / ML pipeline platforms. There's not a ton in this space but it has been growing over the past few years. Many of the big analytics players like Qlik's AutoML, IBM's Watson Studio, Amazon SageMaker, Google's AutoML, have a ML specific tool that does this but it's built for data scientists. Vidora is worth calling out here because it was built more for knowledge workers.Vidora was founded by 3 academics while pursuing their Ph.Ds Caltech and Berkeley, they built systems that utilized machine learning to convert raw data into informed decisions. Their initial vision was to democratize machine learning capabilities. They are a small 20 person startup in SF but their product offers huge potential, so much so that they were acquired by mParticle, a popular CDP. Vidora's platform, Cortex, provides you with the ability to build distinct pipelines for your customer data, so you can then produce various predictive attributes tailored for particular applications. For example if your goal is to identify the customers with the highest probability of purchasing your product in the next 30 days, the pipeline allows you to enhance your retargeting ROI by focusing on this user segment. Similar: https://www.pecan.ai/  https://www.akkio.com/  6sensehttps://6sense.com/It's worth highlighting 6sense here as well. Not specifically an ML tool but it has a wider set of use cases that are a mix of intent data and predictive analytics and a slice of lead scoring… but they've been around for a decade. They use real-time data about your buyers to predict their buying intent and what their current purchasing stage might be. They uncover some of the magic in a blog post about their predictive engine here. They claim to be using: Intent data, web visits, content engagement (1st party) and 3rd party user behavior data from all over the Internet Historical data, events that led up to sales in the past ICP, firmographic and technographic data So they layer intent data on top of historical data and filter it through your ICP and the output is a target list of accounts that show intent to buy and are a good fit for your solution.The secret sauce here is really the 3rd party intent data. This is hidden data that they are able to assign to leads and accounts. Part of the source here is 6sense's proprietary intent network and other B2B review sites like G2, TrustRadius, and PeerSpot.Kumohttps://kumo.ai/ Founded by Jure Leskovec, former Stanford University computer science professor who's known for his bold assertion that AI would eventually be capable of predicting the future. He partnered with the former CTO of Pinterest and Airbnb as well as the former Head of Growth AI at LinkedIn to build Kumo.Using Kumo, companies can not only analyze past events but also predict future opportunities. Kumo uses GNNs (Graph Neural Networks) to identify patterns and relationships in complex data sets that cannot be easily analyzed using traditional statistical or machine learning techniques. This essentially allows marketers to anticipate customer behavior (how much they will spend, which new products they will be more interested in, things that would make them leave for a competitor) and offer personalized product recommendations, promotions, and communication.Predictive analytics isn't a new concept though. We talked a bit about this in our first episode when we mentioned propensity models which tons of larger companies employ today. But this is operationalizing it a step further and not just on your company's datasets. And imagine unlocking this capability for startups. So the idea is that marketing operations teams would change their focus to future customer behaviors. PresentationTomehttps://beta.tome.app/ There are countless AI productivity tools that are all super similar. But one that's been buzzing lately is Tome. They are founded by product leads from Facebook and Instagram, and recently got $43 million in their Series B funding round. They launched an innovative document-to-presentation AI tool, which utilizes GPT-4 to generate text and images and transform a document into compelling presentations, narratives, and stories. Tome's tile system sets it apart from other generative PowerPoint tools on the market and gives Microsoft a run for its money. Not only does it offer robust functionality, but it also boasts a sleek and impressive design.https://gamma.app/ 3D AnimationSpline AIhttps://spline.design/ai Spline AI was created by Alejandro León, it's a YC21 startup that's building a 3D design platform comparable to Figma, it basically allows you to convert text to 3D. For decades, creating in 3D has been super hard. Spline is changing this.You can easily create objects and scenes, edit objects, colors, and properties, add physics and randomness, create animations and events, generate style alternatives, collaborate with others in real-time, and much more. The applications for videos and product marketing are endless here, see a demo here. SalesAI-powered sales tools are popping up every week. Especially in the niche of email outreach. Personalization, subject line optimization, send-time optimization, sales rep coaching, auto suggest follow-up cadences… just a few of the areas where AI can enhance your email campaigns. NLP can analyze email responses and suggest appropriate next steps, helping your sales team respond efficiently. There's tons of players in this space like Cresta, Lyne, Regie. Cresta was funded out of the AI Grant program organized by some of the brightest tech minds in AI. Their founder, S. Zayd Enam chose to leave his PhD program at Stanford to establish the startup. They specifically provide AI guidance software and support that elevates each representative, behavioral mentoring of agents to enhance performance and locate solutions and areas to streamline monotonous tasks.AI Sales Email Coach. It assists you in real-time. Get more positive replies and write better emails faster.https://www.lavender.ai/ https://cresta.com/ https://lyne.ai/cold-email-ai/ https://www.regie.ai/ Web creatorsButternut AIhttps://butternut.ai/ Tagline says it all: Create a website for your business in 20 seconds with AI. Butternut.ai uses generative AI technology that allows users to create websites by simply answering text prompts. The AI technology is designed to function like a personal developer, providing users with an efficient and cost-effective solution for creating and editing websites.Butternut.ai is continuously improving its website builder and is currently working on its v2 version that will offer more design and editing functionalities. Users can even command the AI to perform specific tasks like creating a pricing page with a CTA to sign up.http://Stunning.so https://10web.io Ad and social creativeAlbert.aihttps://albert.ai/ Albert is an autonomous and self-learning digital marketing tool that uses ML + NLP as well as analytics to automate and optimize your paid ad campaigns, specifically Google's search and programmatic channels, as well as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Bing. It can automate bidding and budget allocation, keyword and audience targeting, as well as creative testing and optimization. So obviously the part that stands out here is that unlike many other campaign AI tools that just spit out recommendations and then a marketer takes the action, Albert claims to be one of the first tools that's an autonomous AI, it does the action also. Not only that, it's also making adjustments and improvements constantly. You seem to be able to set guardrails of course. They also claim the ability to identify trends, uncover new audience segments, and optimize ad placements. In their docs they say they are more useful in large data sets and B2C environments. AdCreativehttps://adcreative.ai/ AutoGPT and AI agentsI don't think we can go a full episode about AI tools without talking about AutoGPT and AI agents.Essentially you can assign an objective to an AI agent and they work on tasks that lead to accomplish this objective. It's making prompting a bit easier, instead of giving full instructions, the AI identifies the necessary steps to achieve your goal and some of the more advanced ones generate additional AI to assist. You may have seen this on Twitter, I think the first true demo was Yohei Nakajima's impressive demonstration of babyAGI.Things started blowing up with AutoGPT, released by SigGravitas just last week. Described as a self-running AI agent that can write its own code, heal itself from errors, and access the internet via Google search. It does sound really cool for several reasons: Internet access,  long-term and short-term memory management,  text generation,  and integration with 11 Labs for AI text to speech generation.  It's arguable that all of this will be possible with GPT plugins but this is doable today and has different applications, let's unpack a few examples:Social media is primed for automation, lots of the work here can already be automated. But imagine setting an AI agent loose with the objective of creating content, scheduling posts (not just posting them) and replying to comments and questions. Replying to questions is a huge part of customer service, you could argue this is another area that's already being automated with chat bots, especially the better ones connected to help docs. But imagine setting an AI agent loose with the objective of really understanding customer questions (not just picking up a keyword and recommending a help article), it could speak any language and you could train it on your brand tone.We're still early but there's already been a ton of innovation here.Here are some of the tools you can play around with today without reading a GitHub repo:Cognosyshttps://www.cognosys.ai/ Cognosys allows you to operate your personal AutoGPT Agent in-browser which is currently available and free to utilize. I've personally played around with it quite a bit and it's pretty wild, it's not perfect yet but it's really cool seeing how it will add new tasks to get to the objective. The beta is still on GPT-3.5. Here's my favorite example:Main objective was to: Build a list of AI tools that have a marketing application, that were released in the last 3 months. Here were the follow-up tasks it added to get to the objective: 1. Retrieve a list of AI tools that were released in the last 3 months. 2. Filter the list to only include tools that have a marketing application. 3. Compile the filtered list into a final list of AI tools with marketing applications released in the last 3 months. The final list of AI tools with marketing applications released in the last 3 months is as follows:  1. Receptiviti: A tool that uses AI to analyze consumer emotions and sentiment in order to optimize marketing strategies.  2. Cortex: A platform that uses AI to help marketers personalize content and improve customer engagement.  3. Adext AI: A tool that uses AI to optimize ad campaigns and improve ad performance.  4. Acoustic: An AI-powered marketing platform that helps businesses automate and optimize their marketing strategies.  5. Pathmatics: A tool that uses AI to provide insights into ad spending and campaign performance for competitive analysis.  It then added a few extra tasks because it didn't seem satisfied with the list. Research and compile a list of AI tools that have a marketing application and were released in the last 6 months. The result was 6 tools, but not all 5 from the first task were there. Identify the unique features and functionalities of each AI tool on the list and create a comparison chart to evaluate which tools are most suitable for specific marketing applications. Conduct a survey of marketing professionals to gather feedback and opinions on the identified AI tools and their effectiveness in improving marketing strategies.But then it apologized and said it cannot perform that task…  Research and compile a list of case studies showcasing the successful implementation of AI tools in marketing campaigns.It spun up a case study about Coke using "Albert" to optimize their social media advertising campaigns and Amazon using "Rekognition" to analyze customer behavior and personalize their shopping experience.  Create a step-by-step guide on how to integrate an AI tool into a marketing strategy, including best practices and potential challenges.The step by step wasn't too bad.  1: Define the problem or opportunity,  2: Identify the right AI tool by researching and comparing different tools,  3: Understand the data requirements like type of data, format, frequency updates,  4: Prepare the data for integration like cleaning and formatting  5: Integrate the AI tool  Research and compile a list of AI tools that have a marketing application and were released in the last 2 months.Not sure why it did this for 2 months but this time it gave me tools with release dates which was pretty cool but also obvious that I wasn't getting tools released in the last 2 months, I was only getting tools released in the last 2 months since GPT's latest batch of data which was mid 2021.  Create a comparison chart to evaluate the unique features and functionalities of each AI tool on the list and determine which tools are most suitable for specific marketing applications. Also try: https://agentgpt.reworkd.ai/  https://app.hyperwriteai.com/earlyAccess  https://godmode.space/  OtherRewind.aihttps://twitter.com/dsiroker/status/1646895452317700097?s=20 https://www.rewind.ai/ You may have seen their public investor pitch on Twitter, the founder is the former creator of Optimizely and his team built a way for you to record and store everything you've said or heard or seen and they make it searchable. Obviously there's huge privacy considerations with something like this. But people don't seem to care haha they went from 0 to 700k in ARR in 3 months. Perplexity AI https://www.perplexity.ai/ Perplexity is a startup that's changing the way we search the web. With their conversational search engine, you can ask questions in plain English and get accurate answers from various sources. And with $26 million in Series A funding, (including investments from Ed Gil) they're looking to revolutionize the search engine game.Their AI technology sets it apart from traditional search engines like Google, and their chatbot-like interface is user-friendly and intuitive, it is built on top of GPT.Perplexity's focus on accuracy is a breath of fresh air in an era where search engines can be manipulated by advertisers and search engine optimization. The Series A funds will be used to optimize their knowledge database and expand their reach. All in all, Perplexity AI is definitely one to watch in the coming years!Character AIhttps://beta.character.ai/ Imagine being able to have a one-on-one conversation with your favorite celebrity or fictional character - well, that's now a possibility with Character.ai, an innovative AI website created by two former Google engineers. The platform has been growing in popularity since its launch last September, offering users the opportunity to chat with a wide range of characters for free. What's more, the interactions are so seamless that some users have reported spending hours chatting with their chosen personality, almost forgetting that they're talking to a machine.However, there's a catch - the interactions are not real, and the AI's responses may not always be accurate or reliable. Despite this, Character.ai has been embraced by fans who are looking for new ways to engage with their favorite personalities, particularly online. This is especially true for fan fiction lovers who are excited about the tool's potential for creating new experiences and making the barrier to entry for writing fan fiction much lower.But as with any new technology, there are concerns about its impact on real-world relationships, especially if users spend more time on it than with the people they care about. Furthermore, the AI technology could be used by stans to go after a perceived enemy of their favorite star, which could be a problem if it leads to harmful interactions or behavior towards other users.Despite these concerns, Character.ai represents a new frontier for fan culture, offering a new way for fans to engage with their favorite personalities and characters. The platform's growth in popularity is a testament to the human need for connection, and while it may not substitute actual interactions, it provides a unique and exciting way for fans to engage with their favorite personalities.Magichttps://magic.dev/ Magic, a startup developing an AI-driven tool to help software engineers write, review, debug, and plan code changes, just raised $23 million in a funding round led by Alphabet's CapitalG. The platform's CEO, Eric Steinberger, was inspired by AI at a young age and is using his experience as an AI researcher to create a tool that will communicate with users in natural language, helping to improve the speed and cost of developing software.Steinberger claims that Magic can understand legacy code and collaborate with users on code changes, operating like a pair programmer that learns more about the context of both coding projects and developers. The AI colleague that Magic offers will be able to understand code and can help developers navigate it, allowing companies to scale the impact of their current employees and train new employees with less personal coaching.What sets it apart is that it allows developers to describe what they want in English, and the AI will understand it and collaborate with them on the changes. This means that developers can work with Magic like a colleague and send messages telling it what changes they want to be made to the code. This one isn't built on GPT, the company has developed its own neural network architecture that can rapidly read code and is capable of detecting, warning about and overcoming potential bugs in the code. Honorable mentionsGalileo AI - Create editable UI designs from text descriptionhttps://usegalileo.ai/ Notocat - Write your newsletters in Notion and send them to your subscribershttps://twitter.com/razvanilin/status/1643565644061999104 Brainf FM - music made by AI that's scientifically proven to increase focushttps://www.brain.fm/ Meeting notes and transcription appshttps://tldv.io/ https://vowel.com/ Image Vectorizer - Turn small images to vectorhttps://vectorizer.io/Speech-to-text generator for podcasts that creates notes, timestamps and summary contenthttps://castmagic.io/ https://podsqueeze.com/ Text-to-speech AI voice generatorhttps://murf.ai/ https://beta.elevenlabs.io/ Text-to-music AI music generator https://mubert.com/ Text-to-SQL query, connect your database, ask a question, get an answerhttps://usechannel.com/ Teachable's AI course curriculum generatorhttps://teachable.com/ai-curriculum-generator https://twitter.com/teachable/status/1641154548419969048?s=20 The opportunities are endless with AI tools and applications go far beyond marketing. I see too many people on Twitter dunking on using it to help you generate text or as a search engine or fact checker… and they're missing the big picture. People are using AI to Help them build custom meal plans Custom exercise plans Help them build sleeping plans Help them build routines and schedules with their newborns Planning road trips Planning date ideas Acting as a therapist Getting movie and book recommendations Planning a party or event Designing personal budgets Assisting with resume and cover letter writing Summarizing long articles and youtube videos Write SQL queries Explain python and CSS code in plain English ConclusionIt's not like our marketing jobs are gonna vanish overnight, but the shift is happening faster than many of us realize. AI's no longer just a loosely backed buzzword; it's doing things today that we used to think were impossible. So, as marketers, we've gotta take this tech seriously.There's 4 main things marketers should be doing to future-proof their careers: Instead of asking if AI's gonna replace our roles in marketing, we should be talking about how quickly it could happen and what it'll look like if it does. Staying informed and learning from some of the best podcasts and newsletters about AI. Ben's Bites, No Priors Podcast, A Guide for Thinking Humans and the AI Exchange are great resources.    Now is the time to figure out if you need to make changes to your current area of speciality. Ask yourself if you should double down on additional areas like data and API services, getting closer to product and customers or starting to learn about ethics and data privacy. Stay curious, get your hands dirty and experiment fearlessly: Fill out some forms, spin up free trials, get on wait lists, and give new AI tools a chance. It's only by actually getting your hands dirty that you'll discover which tools truly work for you and which are just part of the ever growing sea of gimmicky AI tools. ✌️--Intro music by Wowa via UnminusCover art created with Midjourney

The 16:9 PODCAST IS SPONSORED BY SCREENFEED – DIGITAL SIGNAGE CONTENT Montreal's SACO Technologies doesn't have anywhere near the mindshare of the largest LED display manufacturers in the pro AV industry, but it's nonetheless the supplier behind some of the biggest and most interesting display jobs lighting up these days. That is SACO's LED light stick technology cladding the world's tallest building - the Burj Khalifa in Dubai - and turning it into a colossal media display that can do everything from mood lighting and still images to motion ads for movies, like this recent spot for the new Batman blockbuster. While the other major players in big direct view LED displays work with pro AV consultants and integrators, and media owners, SACO engages with architects and building engineers to fully integrate active, addressable LED lighting into the facades of buildings and, in some cases, the overall structure of the building. For example, the home grounds of the new MLS team in Cincinnati designed active, changeable lighting into the entire stadium exterior, as opposed to bolting a big conventional display to its side. That huge low rez LED display on the top of SoFi Stadium in LA - where the Super Bowl was just held - that's SACO, too. The back-story of SACO is super-interesting and super-different. The company's roots are in supplying the blinking indicator lights you'd see in old school control rooms, like the walls in power plants. Back in the mid-90s, one of SACO's founders wondered if the colored LEDs could be put together and controlled to create a video display. A small reference design proved the concept, and within a couple of years, SACO was providing a massive version as a digital backdrop for U2's PopMart tour. That led to more concert tours, and by the mid-2000s, the company was also a major player for large format stadium and arena displays. These days, much of SACO's work is custom and specialized, and not the kind of work suited to the more mainstream, high-volume LED guys. I had a really interesting chat about SACO with Co-CEO Jonathan Labbee. Subscribe to this podcast: iTunes * Google Play * RSS TRANSCRIPT Jonathan, thank you for joining me. Can you describe what SACO as a company does and how long has the company been at it?  Jonathan Labbee: Yes, absolutely. SACO was founded 1987 by the Jalbout brothers, Fred and Bassam Jalbout, and originally started off as a company that specialized in nuclear controlled room equipment. So SACO actually stands for Systems Automation Control, a very far cry from what we're doing today, but essentially if you've watched a Steven Seagal movie and you see these big control room panels on these oil rigs and all that kind of stuff, that's the type of stuff that SACO used to do. And in those panels are a lot of little tiny blinking indicator lights, and some other control equipment that SACO used to manufacture, and eventually they started experimenting with LED technology, and one of the brothers, Bassam, came up with the idea of creating a display using these solid state lights. At the time it was only red and green and eventually was working with one of the premier LED manufacturers still to this day, and when they invented the blue LED, they provided that to the team back in Montreal, and essentially created the very first video display on earth. It was a small little sample. It was maybe like a one foot by two foot sample. It was quite small, but it was able to demonstrate the capabilities of putting up an image and eventually a moving image, and this caught the eye of certain advertising companies and more importantly at the time a rock band, and we got a challenge from the band U2 to create this 50 foot by 150 foot wide video stage, a backdrop to replace Sony jumbotron that they were planning on putting on PopMart. And we took up the challenge, designed and built this thing and deployed it with success on the PopMart tour, started in Las Vegas, and then we toured with U2, essentially showing off these new capabilities.  This was in 1997.  Wow. So that first reference design that you talked about, was that 97 or a little bit before then obviously?  Jonathan Labbee: The reference design was in 93, that's when the blue LED was invented. We had, at that time, already created a red, green display as a prototype. But then eventually we did build a red, green and blue version. So an RGB version, a full color version and I think we met the band maybe like the end of 1994.  That's quite a transition from doing a control room to working with Bono.  Jonathan Labbee: It completely changed the company. At the time we called the technology, smart vision. We did a tour with success and picked up a bunch of other bands and then eventually started doing permanent installations, like the Baltimore Ravens stadium and Washington Arena and so on. And then if we fast forward a little bit, we end up in 1999 when we built the very first NASDAQ screen in Times Square.  So the sort of curved one with the knockouts for all the windows, that's you guys?  Jonathan Labbee: That's us, and that's actually a really interesting story. Already making a curve was going to be a big deal, no one had ever seen a curved video screen of that magnitude, and then we had gotten the project. It was a full display at the time, and then the client, NASDAQ came to us and told us that the main tenant in the building was no longer willing to have their windows covered. So we created his knockouts and everybody was worried about how it would look, I guess it would look odd with these holes in it. With a little bit of convincing, everybody went with it, and the very first piece of content that we put on there for testing was Pac-Man.  Which makes sense, because it would work around the hole. Jonathan Labbee: Exactly. Interesting. So you started out doing, I guess, almost like mesh LED curtains, and then the NASDAQ's display was quasi conventional LED cabinets, although albeit a little bit curved and all that, and in the past seven years, really, all these other LED companies have come on the market with their own cabinets on all that and you guys haven't really stayed in the conventional LED cabinet business. You've gone in other directions, right?  Jonathan Labbee: Yeah, that's correct. We still have some “standard” type products. Although they're really more there to support some of the iconic projects that we're doing, and some of the more complex projects that we're doing. So for example, if we have a client that wants to do this kind of nighttime identity thing on their building, that highlights the architecture, and so on, like some of the projects like FC Cincinnati, in some cases, they may require some video screens down at the bottom on the marquee or inside and stuff like that and so we do have offerings to be able to support them with it.  So is a lot of what you do custom then?  Jonathan Labbee: Yeah. I would say most of what we're doing today is highly customized, not full custom, but highly customized, and there's a difference there, in the sense that our product is really the technology itself and then how we package it is the customized portion of it for the client. A lot of the reason that you get attention, I gather at least, is that unlike the vast majority of the companies who are selling “conventional LED products”, they're working with AV integrators, whereas you guys, by the looks of it, at least tend to work with architects.  Jonathan Labbee: Yeah, that's a very good observation. So our main drive is really with architects. We have seven architects on staff here at SACO. We have mechanical engineers, of course, electronics engineers, but also structural engineers. So when we go into a project and usually the earlier, the better, because we're able to detail down to the level of the building and at the same time, we're able to influence how things get integrated, because we know how we can make things.  We're able to work with the architects to integrate the product in the building facade or wherever it's supposed to go where it looks integrated and not bolted on, and that subtle difference makes all the difference in the world. It also makes a difference in terms of the engineering, right? Because even though the individual light rods probably aren't all that heavy, if you have thousands of them, it adds weight to a building, right?  Jonathan Labbee: It does, and so if we were to come on, say after a building's already up, we would normally be adding not just a product but we'll be adding, like the bracketing and whatever else that we're doing. If we're there early enough in the early stage, maybe the extrusion for the window will be designed differently to accommodate the product.  So there's some savings in terms of weight and potential costs, but also the final look is very different.  Going back in the past decade or so, you started to see signature buildings in a landscape that would be lit at night for different purposes. They might have a certain kind of baseline set of colors that they use. But if like right now there would be buildings that are in blue and yellow because of the situation Ukraine has.  That seemed to be the way things were being done for quite some time now, but with the Burj in Dubai, that's more than just a sort of ambient lighting. It's a media facade. Was there a moment when it changed and you're able to do that or has that always been possible and it just hadn't been done?  Jonathan Labbee: We've always been able to do that. I think that the market and the clients, as they evolve and they see things and they have ideas and then we start exploring ideas with the clients, then I think that's truly when things get revealed, right?  So we may have the capability to do something, but then you also need to get the client that has a vision that allows that to happen.  Okay. So with the Burj, the world's tallest building, at least I think it still is, but with that one, you've got your product on at least one side of the building. Is it just on the one side kind of facing the mall and all that, and that goes from top to bottom, was it built in or was it added after the fact? Jonathan Labbee: So this was added after the fact, and actually what happened there is that the client had tried something, they had acquired some products, I don't know exactly where and had put it up. So they had this idea of wanting to do this. I believe it was a DMX based system. It did what it was supposed to do, but the problem is that I don't believe that it lasted as long as they needed it to. So a year and a half in or something, we connected with them and then we designed for them a system that would fully integrate with the fin, we have these really beautiful stainless steel fins on the building. That's what gives it shine during the day.  So we wanted to respect that, but it was also the perfect area to attach these things. So we designed this kind of fin, like a nose piece for the fin that integrated the product, all the cabling and everything, and then we installed that at the end of 2007.  Okay. So with that building, as huge as it is, you can actually do a full motion ad, like the recent one for the new Batman movie from street level, all the way to the top, right? Jonathan Labbee: Oh, absolutely. Everything that we do is basically either a full video screen or a deconstructed video screen, and in the case of Burj Khalifa, it is what we would refer to as a deconstructed video screen. So it has a twenty five millimeter pixel on the height, but then a meter and a half on the width. So it goes in between the windows and obviously with distance and so on, your brain is able to put the image together.  It's interesting, in the past four or five years with LED marketing, it's all been about finding pitch pixel pitch, and it's 0.9 versus 1.2, and oh my God, 1.2 is awful by comparison, and you're talking about a meter and a half pixel pitch.  Jonathan Labbee: Yeah. Everything has to do with distance and contrast, at the end of the day it can be broken down as that. It's in the distance and contrast.  So what's involved in putting up something like that? God knows, I wouldn't want to be one of the technicians who told me to go up to the 110th floor and go outside and put this on. Jonathan Labbee: It's a really interesting process and much like other projects that we've done, it was the first time that we were doing something. Like this and by like this, I mean, at that height with no cranes and difficult to access and so on, the building itself is almost a kilometer tall. Everything is done with rope access people.  And then the other complexity that comes into play is time. So between when we got the contract and we turned the screen on, It was seven months. So that's not a lot of time to design a new product. We actually had to design a new product for this project, did the engineering, the testing validation, certifications. So essentially what we did is, we had our factory in Montreal. We design and manufacture everything in Montreal by the way, and then we replicated a portion of our factory in Dubai, and we did a lot of final assembly and insulation within the extrusion pieces and so on, and the cabling, everything we did there in Dubai.  The client was very instrumental in helping us set up all of that capability there, and then we just staged everything everywhere that we could in every empty space of the building, and then started deploying these via rope access team, and obviously part of it is a hotel, part of it is are residences. So you are very limited in the amount of time that you can spend. At night, you can't be in front of the hotel portion, during the day, you can't be in front of the residences. So we needed to plan across a whole building how to get these things in place.  And is it set up in such a way that if you're in one of these residences, you don't see the light emitting from these fins that it's just pointing out?  Jonathan Labbee: Correct, so you have no idea if you're inside the residence that there's actually lighting on the building. Which is a problem for some of the media facades I've seen that are just mesh LEDs because you're now looking through this grid system to see outside. You've still got your view, but it's compromised.  Jonathan Labbee: Yeah, exactly, and that's actually one of the reasons why the horizontal pixel pitch had to remain at one and a half meters was because we didn't want, nor our client, didn't want anything in front of the windows.  These media facades on buildings seem to be a thing certainly in China, but I'm starting to wonder when we'll start to see more of them in North America. Are you seeing the demand there to do this?  Jonathan Labbee: Yes, absolutely. Although things have shifted, I think that with the introduction of the Burj, FC Cincinnati, SoFi Stadium on the roof, I think clients and architects are realizing that a media facade doesn't need to be just a rectangular or square video that takes up all their front real estate. They're starting to look at it more as a way to enhance the architecture that can also do media, and being able to prove that you don't have to have the same pixel pitch on the vertical and horizontal. You can do different things and it just makes it more unique and interesting to the building while you're still communicating the message that you want to from the advertiser or from whatever you're trying to communicate.  Is it your control system as well for the software that's driving it?  Jonathan Labbee: So we do everything up to the video processor. So the video processor, what takes a signal and then we work with a variety of companies like Disguise or Seventh Sense depending on the type of project. But anything that has a very complex geometry, we usually work with this Disguise.  Yeah, you're not going to get a setting out of the box for a client or a building.  Jonathan Labbee: No, not all, however, our team does produce all of the 3d coordinates for the software to understand it. So you don't have to have a human sitting there trying to figure out the map, because we already have the map created with a tool set that allows us to take the map and turn it into the coordinates for the systems that we work with. So mapping a building is actually fairly simple, and if you were to change something or you had to adjust something in your final drawing sets, you can just re-upload that file to the server, and the server will change the pathways for the video image. image. Now, when you're working with a giant scale surface like that, because the pixels are a meter and a half apart, at least in that job, does that limit the amount of light that's coming out? One of the things I wonder about with city bylaws and all that is, if you tried to do something like this on a building in New York or Montreal, what would be the citizen reaction? Would they say, “We can't tolerate this. It's going to blind us. It's going to feel like a tanning salon in our house”? Jonathan Labbee: Yeah, actually a very valid point. We went through that exercise just recently with a client, and that really becomes more about being a responsible corporate citizen. That onus falls on the client, but also on us to provide the tool set to their client for that. But again, if you remember what I was talking about contrast earlier, if something's too bright anyway, then I'm sure you've driven on the highway and seen digital signs for where their brightness wasn't turned down at night and it hurts your eyes. So I bet you don't remember the ad that was on that screen because your brain was too busy hurting. So in any case, to be able to show off the very best of that building and what you're trying to show, you have to have the right level of contrast. So if it's very bright outside, obviously it could be just light pollution, then you'd want to pump up the power, but if you don't have a lot of competing lights, you would want to j, drop the power down and then the brightness. So we can do it in a few ways. Obviously we can set levels based on time of day and with light sensors and so on which we do for several clients, or there's just just bypass where the client can select it or at night it's just that level. The Burj is a special case, but if there were other tall buildings in major cities that wanted to do this sort of thing, would they be looking to do it as a media model or do they see it as a way to distinguish their building with ambient lighting that's interesting to look at?  Jonathan Labbee: Yeah, that really depends on the client. I think that some clients go in with the idea of wanting to create a media building. So if you look at the Hard Rock hotel, for example, like the Guitar hotel in Hollywood, Florida, their intent was clear of what you want it to do. It is media focused from the very beginning.  Some of our other clients, I'm thinking of one of the embassies that we did in New York, for example, originally started off as a way to highlight the building. So there was more kind of a highlight on the edge of the building. But when they saw us testing, they realized, wow, I think there's more capability here, and I think that each client goes through a level of evolution on how to utilize the product.  And I guess there's a delicate balance that they have to reach as well that you were saying earlier, you can be good corporate citizens and do something visually interesting with your building, but then you can cross the line and start selling mortgage broker services  Jonathan Labbee: You could do that or you could strobe and there's a lot of things that you could do that you wouldn't necessarily want to do and some of the clients, obviously we have some very sophisticated clients that have a media strategy for that, and they have a team, but some of the other clients just want to do something beautiful, and when that happens, we have a division inside of SACO called the Media Collective, with a Creative Director and so on, and we usually put together a base package for them, just to be able to kinda understand how to utilize your building.  Is the Media Collective in-house designers, or is it a collective of people who have the skill sets and experience to work with your technology? Jonathan Labbee: So we have some animators in-house but the whole reason we have a media collective is really to build a collective of external firms that we work with because we actually get a lot of work through design firms. So we don't want to end up competing with them so if we do end up having a project that requires some content, Burj was a perfect example. In the beginning, we built a bunch of content for them. So we directed the whole thing, but we had, I think, six firms that worked with us to provide different flavors.  When you have a specialized project, somebody like another Montreal company, Moment Factory might come to you guys and say, “Hey, we need to do something on this monumental surface. Can you help us?”  Jonathan Labbee: Yeah, correct. Actually Moment Factory, there are several projects where we've collaborated together. One of them being the AT&T project in Texas. We have our product inside of the A looking thing.  Yeah, that kind of a spherical walkway thing that kind of leads you to the building? That's a very cool project. So when you are working with these different companies, are they coming to you directly or does it tend to come through an architect?  Jonathan Labbee: No, when we're working with these with design firms, they'll usually either contact us or again, vice versa, if we have a media request, we'll contact them.  There are any number I would imagine of companies out there that have LED light sticks that can do kind of mood lighting for a building. Do you compete with them or their control systems really meant to like, change this block to blue and change this block to yellow so we can have the Ukrainian flag? Jonathan Labbee: I would say that in certain times, we'll see them on projects, but those companies are usually DMX based, whereas we're video based and there's a really big difference there in the overall approach and also in the ability to display color and bitrate and stuff like that. So just coming from a video background, the type of clients that usually seek us out, or that we seek out have a vision for media, not just for lighting.  Do they also come to you because of the scale that you've done these ginormous projects?  Jonathan Labbee: Absolutely, because you also have to be game to do this. These challenges are filled with unknowns, and I think that the team at SACO thrive on them.  Yeah, I'm sure there are all kinds of companies who, if they were approached to do some of these large scale projects, they'd go, sure, and then they'd go back to the engineering team and look at each other and go, okay, now what?  Jonathan Labbee: Yeah. We've had a few instances where, let's call them competitors, in certain spaces that got a project and had no idea how to do it and they came to us and we worked with them. It's a small industry, so we're friendly with everybody,  You mentioned earlier the idea of shape and you worked with FC Cincinnati on this new MLS stadium, right? Could you describe that?  Jonathan Labbee: The working part or the project part? The stadium is a curved kind of bowl thing, and the whole outside of it is a bit like the Bayern Munich stadium in that you could eliminate the whole thing. Jonathan Labbee: Yes, exactly. Here the architect is Populous, a company with whom we worked with in the past, and we have a very good working relationship there. So when they took over that project, I believe it was with a different architect prior, and they came up with this kind of vision of these angled fins where you could see through the building and so on, they created this very light structure which at night needed to be highlighted.  So when they brought us on board to start taking a look at the designs and giving our ideas and stuff like that, obviously it made a lot of sense to highlight the edge of that. The product is very much recessed inside of the fin. So it's completely invisible during the day or when it's not on, and I guess there were several ideas there, but I guess one of the guiding principles there is that it needs to be integrated and needed to highlight the architecture at night and keep that sense of emotion like that whole stadium has this static motion to it. So based on that, we ended up designing a solution for it, and also created the base content for the client and it's been highly efficient for the client.  Is it actually less costly to do it the way you're describing as opposed to doing like a full LED mesh curtain and all that, just because there's less hardware, fewer LED diodes and so on, or it does balance out because this is custom engineering? Jonathan Labbee: Yeah, I think I think maybe it balances out. It's probably overall it's maybe a little cheaper because you're integrating early but that only happens if you're integrating early, if you're retrofitting, it's usually it usually balances. But the big thing that it does though, is that it does become unique to that property.  When you just start adding video screens, and again, I'm a big fan of video screens. That's what we do for a living. But video screens, like what we refer to as traditional video screens, have their place. But on a building, it just ends up looking like advertising, if you just put it up a building, right? So if you really want to enhance the building and kind of blend art and media, I think that's a highly effective way of getting your message across because then there's no mistake in if someone takes their Instagram shot or whatever, there's no mistake in where that is.  And I'm sure that you spend the time with the clients, for them to understand, look, this is low resolution. This is in a lot of cases meant to be seen from a hundred meters away or further away. If you want to put pricing propositions on the screen, that's probably not going to work, but logos and things like that's going to work well.  Jonathan Labbee: Yep. Exactly. And again and as you approach the building or as you approach a property or as you're walking through a property, your experience is going to change. So that video element will now become more of a lighting interesting kind of ambient element, but then you'll have something else in the Causeway or whatever with maybe that has a tighter pixel pitch or something to just continue that whole experience as you walk through the property. Do you strictly work with outdoor products or are you doing anything indoor?  Jonathan Labbee: Oh no, we do lots of indoor stuff.  Is that more conventional, like LED modules, cabinets, that sort of thing?  Jonathan Labbee: Yes, actually, in its construction, I would say yes but in its deployment oftentimes it's different. We did this art piece, which is actually a media piece with Jenny Holzer, which sits inside of the Comcast headquarters in Philadelphia, and there are custom tiles that are 6.32 millimeter pixel pitch at the exact 8 inches wide, and they needed to fit in between these wood slabs on the ceiling and the entire ceiling has video strips going right through it, right through the escalator and everything.  Oh, so is this tied in with the big LED wall it's already in the lobby there?  Jonathan Labbee: The LED wall is in the other building.  Gotcha. The other building is fantastic, what they've done there.  Jonathan Labbee: Yeah, exactly. So we'll also deploy, like we have a project right now going on, I can't really say what it is yet, but it has a bunch of really high res stuff, and these kinds of monuments in a curved fashion, all interactive. So high res video screen type stuff that we do a lot, and we do a lot of touring also. All tier one, so the Paul McCartney's of the world and Lady Gaga's utilize a lot of SACO equipment on their tours.  And these again, would be stuff that you can put up and take down pretty quickly. They're lightweight and there's a pastor, so you can see it and behind it, all that? Jonathan Labbee: Yeah, exactly. So what we do for touring is actually use our frames called Fast Frames and they're very fast to set up and rugged. And, in touring speed is extremely important because time is money there, as you're loading and unloading, others are waiting on you. So we came up with this system that's very fast.  I'll give you an example. When we came up with this new product called the S series. One of our very first clients was Bruno Mars, and this is obviously through some partners, rental partners, and it was a 50 foot wide video screen by 20 feet tall and that took 13 minutes and 13 seconds to set up, from the carts to image on. We actually made t-shirts that said 13:13.  Yeah. That's a good thing. Cause somebody's going to ask, what does that mean? And then you're immediately pitching,  Jonathan Labbee: Well, exactly, and also touring does allow us to have a customer base there that is always hungry for the latest in things. Although we have more standard products there that can do their main elements, we'll build a lot of custom stuff for touring as well, and so on the Taylor Swift tour, for example, we had a bunch of 12 millimeters and some 9 millimeters, but because the thing went up like a half pipe in certain areas. We designed these custom triangular tiles to fill in the gap to provide a monolithic look and so on. So we have clients that are willing to try new things there, and then we take all of that knowledge and then we apply it to our more permanent projects afterwards.  You're obviously pretty well known in the live events community and I guess in architectural design, not really in the digital signage or LED display community or at least the conventional side of that. Does that matter, or are you quite happy with just stealthily building up your business?  Jonathan Labbee: Very good question. I would say that in the beginning more, more on like the 2000s stuff, we were doing a lot of arenas and stadiums, like the traditional center hongs or ribbon boards, we were heavily heavily involved there. But when so many companies came out with offerings, there were some differentiators of course, between what we offered and what other people offer, but the cost just kept getting driven down and down, and all of a sudden, you're now operating in a commodity based business. That's not where we necessarily like to be, we're innovators at heart, so we like to focus on areas where our talents can be fully exploited, and so as soon as you introduce a little bit of complexity and there's a lot of clients that want something complex and context could be something as simple as a curve, an angle, a shape, an installation, we ended up finding ourselves almost alone.  Yeah. Interesting. I know there's a big project that you're not able to talk about yet but I'm sure maybe we'll get back together in a year or so when you're allowed to talk about this thing running and it's amazing, and unfortunately we can't talk about it at the moment. Jonathan Labbee: No, but I'll be happy to speak with you when we can.  Absolutely. All right. Thank you very much for spending some time with me. That was terrific. Jonathan Labbee: It was a pleasure.

Her acting background in local theaters and her love of audiobooks led her to her career as a narrator. She says the name of her game is strength and persistence in everything she does. Narrating audiobooks allows her to flex her acting muscle every day. She particularly loves the tension of a thriller, the intimacy of a memoir, and the educational aspect of nonfiction narration. Her educational background in medical massage therapy and intensive anatomical studies, including the performance of human dissections, lends itself well to medical narration with anatomical and biological terminology. Finally, she is a passionate Masters CrossFit athlete.

Today on the Modern Day Intuitive Podcast I have something a bit different for you today!  Instead of reading for a person, I do a reading of the energy around an intuition based project "Seventh Sense" by Priyanka Kumar, who is completing her MA in New Arts Journalism at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.  This reading is really interesting and helps us explore the following topics.  What it can feel like in your body as you begin to connect more deeply with your intuition.  The importance of vulnerability and authenticity on your intuitive journey.  How there are no coincidences in life, that they are actually synchronicities that are  guiding us towards a deeper understanding of ourselves.  That we are not alone, or separate from each other but rather all connected at the soul level.  That we have a spirit family supporting us and by connecting to our intuition we can tap into their guidance.  Plus, I lead you through an exercise you can practice to open your heart and connect to your intuition.    Priyanka Kumar - Seventh Sense Publication  www.inyourseventhsense.com What is your Intuitive Superpower?

Freed partner Maggie Partin joins me again to talk about her new company and what has changed in her professional life since you heard her in the first episode of the podcast. Maggie's new company is called The Seventh Sense and is a loungewear line intended to support strong emotional and mental health. Maggie discusses what inspired the clothing line and details what the objective of it is, and she also shares what developments she hopes the loungewear line will see over the next five years. In addition, Maggie offers some helpful advice to anyone who might want to walk a similar path as hers. She clarifies that in order to start an online retail company, you need five tools: (1) an LLC (limited liability company), (2) a professional email address, (3) a Shopify account, (4) a graphic designer if you don't do your designs yourself, and lastly, (5) merchandise and a manufacturer to make your merchandise if you don't do that yourself. She also shares with us a few fun facts about herself, such as what her first major job was and how she felt about it (indirectly providing some invaluable insight into what makes an effective leader and/or supervisor), what sources of support and mentorship have benefitted her over her lifetime and what she learned from those sources, and even how she feels about personal ads! It was so much fun having Maggie on the podcast again to share updates on how her professional life has been progressing and to talk about The Seventh Sense, and I look forward to talking to her again in the future!

The original intent of the program was to help police find missing children. However as cases met with success, the various departments and agencies began to enlist the remote viewers in other projects.Presently, Problems Solutions Innovations continues to work with both public service agencies and the corporate world to train and make use of talented and qualified Controlled Remote Viewers.

My conversation today with Howard Lake was a much anticipated one; I recall our first interaction a couple of years ago when he  graciously offered to help promote my new book. I remain very grateful for his help in spreading the word in the UK and beyond. Howard describes himself as a digital fundraising entrepreneur. In 1994, he began publishing UK Fundraising, the world’s first web resource for charity fundraisers; and, in 1996, he a few years later wrote the first book on the subject. Because Howard is able to keep a pulse on where fundraising is headed, I was eager to hear his thoughts about the Captain Tom story and some other events in our space.  Despite what he has already achieved in our sector Howard is quite convinced that there is far more work to be done and that much of that work will be accomplished in the digital space. It was contemplating these possibilities that was the focus of our conversation today. Howard and I talked about whether perhaps the constraints of consumer theory and institutional control were the primary barriers to achieving what he imagines is possible. I certainly share Howard’s optimism and concur that much of what we have seen as of late is only scratching the surface of what is possible. Our listeners might want to check out Jeremy Heimans and Henry Timms New Power as well as Joshua Cooper Ramo‘s The Seventh Sense.  As always, we are grateful to our friends at CueBack for sponsoring The Fundraising Talent Podcast.   #unpredictable  #responsivefundraising

Highlights from my conversation with Alex include: If you want to get in front of big brands, Alex recommends that you start by identifying industries where you've had strong performance or a great track record. Then develop a "no brainer offer" for other businesses in that industry. Alex says that enterprise level companies want to see that you've done work with other companies of their size and in their industry. If you can nail those two things, then cracking into big companies becomes much easier. If you don't have a relevant track record, he suggests going after a smaller company in that industry and then gradually working your way up in company size.  Once you have identified the industry you are targeting and you have your no brainer offer, the next step is to build a landing page for it. Alex recommends creating four different variations of the landing page and testing to see which performs best. When it comes time to email the target audience, use a short subject line. Alex says "Quick question" performs best for him. The first sentence of the email is then a custom compliment aimed at the recipient (the emails are one-to-one). Alex has found that adding this in produces 10X the responses. That is then followed by a one sentence case study highlighting work you've done for a similar company in the same industry, and a pitch to meet with the recipient. Start by testing different subject lines with small audiences of 50 to 100 people to see which ones work best. The goal is to get a subject line that has an open rate of 80% or greater. Alex generally strives for a 4% meeting book rate (so, four meetings or every 100 emails sent). Alex likes to test different times for sending emails, but has found in general that Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday at 10 am works best. The strategy that Alex uses works best for companies that sell a product or service valued at $1,000 or more. Below that, Alex says that a company is better off using Facebook ads. The biggest mistakes that companies make when implementing this strategy are outsourcing it, not customizing the emails correctly, and giving up too soon. It can take several tries at testing to land on a really powerful subject line and offer, and the best marketers are the ones that stick with it.

Transcript Kathleen Booth (Host): Welcome back to the Inbound Success Podcast. I'm your host Kathleen Booth, and today my guest is Alex Berman who is the chairman of Experiment27. Welcome, Alex. Alex Berman (Guest): Thanks for having me, Kathleen. Alex and Kathleen recording this episode together . Kathleen: Yeah you know, I was intrigued to read your background and your profile. It talks about how you help clients get meetings with billion dollar brands. So like, land the big whales, if you will, and I'm really excited to talk to you about that, but before we dig into it, will you just give my listeners a little bit of background on who you are, what you do, and what Experiment27 is? About Alex Berman and Experiment27 Alex: Sure. So Experiment27 is part of a bigger holding company that I run. X27 does "done for you" lead generation. So we help companies match with billion dollar brands, but then we also have Email 10K which is of course where people it for it, or they can do it themselves following the course, and there's also consulting for advanced entrepreneurs, but we just kind of help them with lead generation. So basically, if it has something to do with lead generation in the business to business space, that is my specialty. We've been doing this for almost a decade now, and also I run a YouTube channel where we have I think over 28,000 subs, and all we do is post about free business to business sales training. Kathleen: Oh, I love it. And how did you get to be such an expert in lead gen? Alex: A lot of trial and error. It's the same thing that we talk about ... I mean, it's like any marketing channel where the first time you try lead gen, the first I tried it I tried it all wrong. I was spamming a lot of people. I didn't have the offer down, and what I learned is by sending in small batches and by customizing the messages, it allows you to get a lot more feedback quicker, and if you're able to get feedback quicker, you're able to improve the emails constantly. So the main thing that I teach is it's an iterative process of testing a campaign, sending it out there, seeing what the results are, improving it, and then getting a new list of leads that hasn't seen the previous campaign and testing that optimized campaign with email, and then continuing to improve that over and over again. And what that allows you to do is, one, you can get a bunch of sales with cold email which is really cool, but the other thing it does is it really strengthens your offer. So when you do use inbound, you use social media, you use YouTube like we do, it makes the offer that much more likely to convert. Designing Marketing Campaigns That Target Billion Dollar Brands Kathleen: Hm. So walk me through this. If I am a marketer, and I come to you, and I say, "I'm looking to reach people at these huge companies," the billion dollar brands that you talk about, those can be hard target markets to crack into. Walk me through your process from beginning to end if you're going to do this for me. Alex: Sure. So if you're an established company, the first thing I'm going to do is ask what case studies you have and what sort of companies you've worked with in the past. And from there, what I want to do is try to find patterns. So for instance, a lot of our clients are software as a service businesses or services businesses where, let's say, you had a good case study with a potato chip company like a consumer packaged goods company. Then what we're going to do is create an offer just around that company. I call it a no-brainer offer, and what we want to do is come up with an offer that is so good that people can't say no. For instance, for lead generation which is what I sell, it might be something like we're gonna book ten meetings in the next week with people in your ideal customer base, or we're going to give you the money back. Something like that is what we really want to nail down in an ideal situation, and you could do it across ditches like video production we help some people. Usually it's coming up with either a video idea that they like or their money back or coming up with a list of what the video is going to be like bullet points, an outline. From there, once you have the no-brainer offer, it's writing that in a way that highlights the case study, and we could talk about this in a second what to actually put in that email because it's very similar to what we put in Facebook ads when we do that too. But once you have that no-brainer offer and you frame it in a way that is extremely niche specific, then you test it in the market and see what they say. What I've found is with enterprise companies, what they want to see is ... they want to see you've done work with the companies of their size, and they want to see that you've done work with companies that are very similar, as similar as possible, to them. If you can nail those two things, then you're all set to scale the enterprise. If not, I would not approach someone like a Fortune 500 but instead go after people that are $5+ million in revenue, and then try to get one of those smaller case studies that you can then leverage to get these large enterprises. How To Get Started Kathleen: Okay, so that was going to be my question which is, obviously everybody's got to start somewhere. So, it sounds like what you're saying is you start within the same industry or product service, vertical, but you just start with a smaller firm. Correct? Alex: Exactly. So one mistake that a lot of companies make, even big enterprises, is they don't have marketing that's specific for one vertical. So for instance, let's say you're running a software as a service business and you're crushing it with live events, and you're also crushing it with CPG, or you're also crushing it with retail. They will be sending all three of those customers to the exact same funnel, they exact same website. So one of the things that we focus on is not only separating the marketing, so we'll have three different websites for each of those, or one different website for each one of those verticals. Kathleen: A full website, not just a landing page? Alex: Well, a landing page is basically a website. Kathleen: Or a microsite, a microsite. Okay. Alex: It's like a microsite, it's a one or two page site. Usually it's just a headline, some kind of testimonial, some case studies, and then the contact form. Maybe a breakdown of the services. But yeah, and then it's not just coming up with that, but it's coming up with three or four of those options and then testing all four in the market, seeing which one gets the best response, and then only at that point doubling and tripling down on the marketing. Because a lot of entrepreneurs, they have a theory for what their customer looks like, or they have a theory, even if they've been running a business 10-15 years, they kind of know who their customers are, but they actually haven't done a real analysis and figured out one, who are the customers that will be most successful when using this, and then two, who are the customers that I actually make the most money from? And it's cool to do that analysis and then also compare it to which one of these offers actually gets people to buy most often, and then hopefully you find an overlap there. If not, you need to do more research. Developing An Email Outreach Strategy Kathleen: Okay, so you craft the offer, you develop your case study, and then you're sending ... it sounds like you're starting with an initial email. Is that right? Alex: Yeah. It's normally a short email. We can breakdown what the email says if you want. Kathleen: Yeah, let's do it. I love to get as specific as possible. Alex: Okay. So the first thing that I like to test is the subject line. Normally I'll just say if people are writing their first email from scratch, I would say just go with "quick question" because I've sent over 2 million emails now, and that one still outperforms cross niche. So the highest chance to get an open rate is with "quick question." So sending that as a subject line's good. Then what we do is the first sentence of the email is a custom compliment towards the person's business, and this is not something you can outsource, this is not something that you can kind of fake, especially at the enterprise level. It needs to be a custom compliment, and it sounds something like, "Hey Kathleen, really love your Inbound Success Podcast. Long time listener. Love the interview you did with Alex Berman." Just something like that. Or if it's someone at Sony like, "Hey," director of marketing name, "congrats on the Q4 growth. Loved the latest earnings report." You know, just something that's very specific to their business, and what that does is it gets them to keep reading the next part which is the one sentence case study which usually goes like ... Let's say you are talking to Sony, and you worked with ... Who's a competitor to Sony? Like Hitachi. So that custom compliment. So, "Hey, I really love what you're doing with Sony. Love the Q4 growth. We just wrapped a project with Hitachi where we optimized their entire backend, and we were able to generate a 14% increase in," I don't know like new user engagement or whatever you guys did. "We'd love to do the same for Sony. Are you around for a quick call later this week? Let me know, and I can send over a couple times." Kathleen: You know, and I can serve as a testimonial to the fact that this approach works because all right, I'm going to actually read the email that you sent pitching me for the podcast which totally follows your formula. So the subject line was "Huge fan," and you said, "Hey, Kathleen. Just listened to your interview with Sangram Vajre from Terminus, and I was really impressed with the idea of using AI to fit data and automatically build landing pages and ABM campaigns for prospects." That was the initial compliment line, and then you said, "It would be incredible to come on your show as a guest. I run a YouTube channel with over 23,000 subscribers and have been on more than 100 podcasts including," and then you listed some out. So totally following the format you just described which is awesome. I love that you practice what you preach, and it worked, and I got back to you and said, "Yes!" So there you have it. Alex: Yeah. We practice what we preach because every other way is inefficient. Like okay, what I found is when we started doing the personal lines, when we started doing that we got a ten times increase. I know it takes more time. That might have taken four or five minutes. Like I had to look up that podcast episode, we had to listen to part of the episode and figure out what it was, and then after we booked, I did check out the actual episode so I wasn't lying. That all takes time, for sure, but the response boost is worth it, and the conversion rate increase which you might not even see when you send the emails out, but you'll see it like three, four months later. The number of people that work with you or get you on their podcast or whatever from an email like that is much higher than one of these generic cold emails that people are sending out. Kathleen: Absolutely. Now, you mentioned ... I love that you have this formulaic approach. I mean, it's formulaic, but it's like customized formulaic I would say. It's a blueprint more so than a copy and paste. So you apply this blueprint to the email, and you mentioned sending it out to a smaller group in the beginning. So define small. Alex: Small would be anywhere from ... So you want to make sure you get enough data. I would say a minimum of 50 people, a maximum of 100 people with a pitch like this. And what you want to test is a few things. So for instance, what was the subject line that you just read? Kathleen: Huge fan. Alex: Huge fan, okay. So huge fan might have been iteration number four or five, and the first thing that we're looking for is, and by the way this is all broken down in our course, Email 10K, email10k.com. What we want to do is you want to find the subject line that gets over an 80% open rate. So for instance, for podcasts if you open that, that's amazing. Quick question might have gotten under 80% so that was optimized out. When we were sending to breweries, actually the one that won when we were doing ... It was digital marketing for breweries in the United States, it was a beer emoji, and when we were sending to the entertainment companies like Netflix and TV Land and stuff like that, what was booking meetings was, "I was born to work with HBO," or "I was born to work with your company." Benchmarking Success Alex: So that is found through ... Yeah, just hardcore testing. 100 at a time. That's the first thing you're looking for is ... Well two things you're looking for, one is are people opening the email? You want at least an 80% open rate before you even touch anything else, and then two, are the emails any good? Meaning if you get a super high bounce rate then you're going to want to change the way you're finding leads. Kathleen: Now quick clarifying question on that. So you're testing these subject lines. Are you testing simultaneously different subject lines with different small audiences, or are you testing sequentially? Like, you send one, it doesn't work, you send another one? Alex: Sequentially's usually enough. Because the numbers that we're talking about ... So what you want is an 80% open rate. You want at least a 4% meeting book rate. So every 100 emails, you're getting 4 people signed up. So when you're dealing with numbers like that, it's a little easier to see when things are failing or they're succeeding. You'll be able to see pretty quick because you're either going to get a 14% open rate or like a 30%, or it's going to be 90. Right? And that's ... You're really going for those major win emails. Kathleen: All right. So it sounds like shorter subject lines work really well also. Alex: It completely depends on the niche. What I've found is in some niches, yeah, "quick question" works really well, shorter subject lines work really well, and that's because your custom compliment can be seen. If you look at Gmail or even Outlook, you'll see the subject line, and then you'll see that first line of the email. So if you have even just "Quick Q," which also works pretty well, they see that subject line, but then they also see the first line of the email before they open. So a good first line also will improve open rates. Testing Email Copy Kathleen: Yeah, that makes sense. So all right, you test this out, you land on a good subject line. You already have the body copy within the email written. Are you testing that as well? Alex: Yeah. So the main thing I want to make sure first is the subject line gets over 80% before we touch anything to do with the body. I would stick to the exact template that we talked about earlier. That's the baseline template, and then from there if 80% of the people are opening, and you're getting ... Usually it's about 20% reply or less, then we're rewriting the body of the email. Usually it's messing around with the case studies or messing around with the personalized compliments. A lot of people when they first start the compliments, they either go too far in one direction. So for instance, if I was sending this email to you and I had pointed out something specific about the Terminus podcast and written this long paragraph to you, the chances that that would work, especially to an enterprise level company, would be very level. But what people are trying to find and what we're trying to find is you want a compliment that's short enough but it's not super creepy. Like, you don't want it to look like you did a crazy amount of research. Kathleen: Yeah, you're stalking them. Alex: Yeah, exactly. But you also don't want it to be too generic. So part of it is finding that balance. How Long To Run Email Tests Kathleen: Now how long do you wait after you send those initial emails out to kind of close the test? Because obviously, I don't know, in my experience I find that some people look at their email right away, and then for other people it could be a day or two, and they might still open it. What's the right amount of time for that? Alex: After seeing hundreds of these campaigns, it's kind of evolved a little bit because I don't want it to say ... Like, the gut feeling is we should wait a couple days on our tests. What I've found is when a campaign works, it works so well that you can tell after like three or four hours. Kathleen: Wow. Alex: Especially if you're sending at the right times. For instance, the best time I've found actually is a couple hours before this. It's like Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 10:00AM Eastern time is usually the best because it overlaps early morning Pacific, and then the other best time is later in the afternoon. So like 3:00 Pacific so you hit like 3:00-4:00PM Pacific. Kathleen: Okay. Alex: But if you're sending on those times, you should be able to see opens and engages. And then the other thing I'll do sometimes with replies is, and this is a little bit of an advanced tactic, but if someone does reply to your email and you're trying to follow up, you can see when they reply and then queue your followups to go out whenever they're checking their emails. Kathleen: Yeah, there's actually a great platform that we've used called Seventh Sense that does that for you which is pretty cool. It just tracks email open times, and then it develops a personal send time for everybody in your database. It's like magic. Alex: Yeah no, it's sick. Because I just sent 50 followups the other day, and it was crazy. Some people only do emails at like 3:00AM Pacific, or maybe they'll do emails at like midnight. Kathleen: Yeah. Yeah. Alex: You just can't tell. Kathleen: So if you have such a short amount of turnaround time that's necessary to conclude a test, it sounds like you can go through this entire process within a week. Alex: You can, and one of the things that I talk to new entrepreneurs about is especially when you're starting your business or if you have a business for a while and you're trying to find what market is worth investing in for your inbound, I would run 10-20 tests. Just even test different offers and different positions within that. Like before you even deal with optimizing or making sure the subject line works or whatever, stick to that basic template of "quick question" and write an email, and then write 10 different emails for 10 different offers. Like maybe one is selling your company like you only work with chip manufacturers. Or only work with software as a service startups, whatever. Just doing what we talked about with the case studies. Because what I've found is one of those ten, or even two of those ten, are going to blow away all the other tests, and then you only focus on those two. Kathleen: And then you just slightly change the contents to adjust for different industries and roll it out? Alex: The ... Yeah, you change the one sentence case study. So we just worked with this company, and we did this thing. Following Up On The Initial Email Send Kathleen: Okay, great. So I love this format. So is there something that comes after the email iterations, or is that it? That brings in the meetings? Alex: That brings in the ... So there are followups on top of it. One, and I broke all of these down in the course, but one is just like, "Hey, I'm sure you're busy and wanted to make sure this didn't get buried." That's a couple days later. Then the third one is, I call it like the big win. So something like, "Hey, we just had a big win working with this solar manufacturer we did that ..." like basically a second one sentence case study, and then asking them for another call like, "Hey, we'd love to talk. If you're around ..." I always try to end emails with question marks, too. Kathleen: Yeah. Alex: "Would you mind if I sent over a few times for a quick call?" is how I'll usually end them. Or I'll just say, "Let's talk?" Alex's Results Kathleen: Great. You teach this method, you've done this with different clients. Talk me through what kinds of results you've seen, and is it specific to a certain type of business or industry or company size? Alex: Is it specific ... So anyone that sells to people that check their emails. That's ... This is what I like to think about, so- Kathleen: A narrow target audience. Alex: It's narrow ... Well so if you think about it though like some businesses aren't good for this. So for instance what I found is loans or mortgages aren't really good because with those you just have to hit so many people that Facebook ads is a better thing. Used cars is also not a good niche for this. But most of the B2B. Anyone that's selling to manufacturers or anyone that works in an office. Things like that are best for this sort of thing. Revenue size I've found does not matter. We've met with most of the Fortune 500 for our clients and for ourselves, and we've met with smaller ... Like everyone from local businesses up to billion dollar brands this is good for. I try to avoid companies under $5 million in revenue because I mean, I like dealing with people that can actually afford this service. I don't like dealing with local businesses. Kathleen: Yeah, yeah. But I guess a local business could presumably take your class or if they heard this they could test out executing it for themselves. They could DIY. Alex: Yeah, for sure. Okay, so what businesses are benefiting from this? Kathleen: Yeah. Alex: I thought you were talking about what businesses are worth selling to. Kathleen: Oh, oh, oh, oh. Yes. Okay, got you. Yes. Alex: So what businesses are benefiting from this? It's usually any sort of business that has a higher ticket. Because this sort of thing like we're talking about, we're personalizing the emails. Every single email, it takes a decent amount of time. So I would say if your cost is under $1,000 per user, it's probably not worth doing this. You should probably do like Facebook ads or something. But if you're selling a service, like my background is selling mobile apps to the enterprise so we're used to selling $100,000 apps, or like $200,000 applications, websites, that sort of stuff, or even a lot of our clients will sell like $25,000 packages, $30,000 packages. Cold email is perfect for those. Kathleen: Great. Okay. So considered purchases, if you will. High dollar value sales. Alex: High dollar value sales, and sometimes they're not considered. I mean, you get the right no-brainer offer. Our initial marketing reviews were $8,500, and we would sell those after a couple weeks, and then that would just go into the retainers. It all depends on the type of client you're going after. Right? Because like for Sony, or for Home Depot or whoever, like $8,500 is very small. Kathleen: Yeah, that is not a considered purchase for them. Very good point. So talk me through the results that your clients are seeing with this, and how long does it take to see those results? Alex: So if you get an email right off the bat ... I actually just saw something in our private Facebook group this morning, some guy sold ... his name was Mark O, he sold $4,500 and then $4,000 off a month like two days after starting, but that's when everything goes perfectly if you get the offer right. If you're willing to put in the time and you're willing to test and you're willing to be wrong 9, 10, 11 times and just keep going back and iterating, I mean it could work pretty quick. It 100% depends on how fast you are, how intuitive you are with the data, and then how much you're willing to actually put into it because a lot of people, they find cold emailing extremely boring, and I did too until ... I had to purposely reframe each email as, "Okay, this email's worth $3. This email's worth $5," like whatever, like I had to reframe it just to get myself to actually work because it is super tedious work. Kathleen: Yeah, but it sounds like it gets easier over time. Alex: It does, and it gets faster. And once you have an offer, it's much better. The hardest part and the thing where you can get stuck for months at a time is trying to find the way that your business should be positioned to get massive amounts of money, and I know it sounds kind of weird, but it's like there is a way to frame any business where it becomes a no-brainer for clients, and then everything else becomes easy. And if you're not at that point where it feels easy and things are like going, until you've been there it's hard to describe it, but there's ... And you'll see it once you get it. There's such a difference between a business that works and a business that just kind of works. Kathleen: Hm. Interesting. Well I love it. 10x improvements like you were talking about are certainly attractive, and the fact that you can do all of this in a week is also very attractive. It's just it sounds like it's really just a matter of time and elbow grease. Alex: Yeah, and if you compare it to something like Facebook ads, like we run Facebook ads as well, and it's a similar strategy where you're filming 10-20 ads and putting budget behind all of them. Those actually take time to get the data in, and it costs money. Right, if you compare it to something like cold email, all that costs is time which for some people is money, but if you're a new entrepreneur and you're not charging like $700 an hour, it's not that much money. Common Mistakes Businesses Make When Targeting Big Brands Kathleen: Yeah. Now what do you see as the most common mistakes that people make when trying to do this? Alex: First most common mistake is they think they can outsource it all, and they don't want to do the customization. I recommend against that, especially in this initial ... the hardest phase, the research phase. Once you have something that works, you can scale pretty easy. They try to outsource too early, too. They customize in the wrong way. A lot of our clients are ... well actually, not a lot of our clients. Some of our clients are international. And so English isn't the greatest for them. Even if they come from like Germany or some Western country. So framing that compliment in a way that doesn't come off as like too crazy is actually something that I struggle with a lot with our coaching clients. That's number two. And then number three would be giving up too soon. And actually giving up too soon/settling too soon. Because you might try three tests, and like test one and test two book zero meetings, and then test three books two meetings. Then you might be like, "oh, I'm going to put my entire business onto test three," when really if you had tested like four or five more times, you might have sent an email that got eight meetings. Kathleen: Yeah. How do you know when to stop testing? Alex: So I would never stop testing. I know even with our ... so with the course part of our business, we spend 30% of our revenue on research and development. So just testing new ads and doing all that stuff outside of scale. I would never stop testing. It's always surprising. What we saw our add to cart cost go from $100 to $6 this week just by testing a new series of ads. Kathleen: Wow. That's crazy. Alex: Right? You can only get those improvements by constantly throwing stuff out there and seeing what works. Kathleen: Yeah. Very cool. And I love how specific you've been just in terms of sharing guidance on the actual wording of subject lines that works and the wording of some of the emails. It's really helpful. If somebody wants to try this, how do you recommend narrowing down your list? Because a lot of the people I know ... You said send it to 50 or 100 people. A lot of the people I know have lists that are much larger than that. Is it just literally a matter of, "All right, I'm going to export this list of 10,000 people, and I'm just going to take the first 100," or is there some other way ... Do you start with like a certain subpopulation? Alex: So what I would do is if you have an inbound list, I would actually ignore it for now. So you have marketing that works for your inbound list, right? Keep that going. What I would actually do is go over to Upwork or go over to LinkedIn and just start making lists of your ideal clients. I would send 100 cold. I would make a list of these people cold instead of going through the people that are subscribed. Because what you want is you test with the cold traffic where you can quickly iterate, and then once you have something that's working with those cold people, then you can take it back to your main list, and you know it'll work versus burning your main list on an offer that may or may not be okay. Kathleen: Do you have any concerns around if somebody does that, jeopardizing their sender score just because people hitting spam or what have you? Alex: Yeah, so normally ... And actually if you "Alex Berman how to avoid the spam box," on YouTube, I broke it down. But normally I'll recommend starting with a brand new domain for cold email, and then you warm it up over like two weeks. You subscribe to some newsletters, you make it seem like a normal email, and actually I would have a different domain for your cold emails, a different domain for your inbound like your email list emails, and a third domain ... actually even a third and fourth domain. Like third domain for cold ad traffic lists, right just in case, because spam is an issue there. And even a fourth domain for just customer communication. That way you protect everything. You keep it all super segmented. Kathleen: Does that get really confusing? Alex: Not for me. I mean, for our ads we've got like alex@X27.io, like alex@X27Marketing.com is our other list. alex@Experiment27.com. It's all pretty easy. Kathleen: And I'm assuming they all redirect at some point to...? Alex: They all redirect ... Yeah they all go to my normal inbox. Kathleen: Okay, got you. Very helpful. All right. Alex: It's a good way to protect your sender score there. Because what you'll also do is a lot of times if you want to test a bunch of different cold email campaigns also, you might, and what I make people consider a lot is you might want to buy a domain for each one of these different niches as well, and then that domain will just redirect to a website that's specific for that niche. The Impact of GDPR Kathleen: Do you worry at all with European like GDPR rules and the increasing focus on doing something similar in the US, do you worry at all that that approach is going to get tougher to use because cold emailing will begin to become disallowed essentially under regulations? Alex: If it's illegal, I recommend not doing it. What I've found is there's always a place for a personalized compliment. The personalizing the emails thing is ... that's what increases our response rate, and it's also what takes it out of the spammy territory. We're not sending messages to 10,000 people. We're not robocalling. It's nothing crazy like that. But I would ... Yeah, if you're in like ... Especially if you're in Europe or the UK or Canada or Australia, definitely consult a lawyer before working with someone like us or doing anything related to this. Kathleen: Yeah, it is getting- Alex: As far as I know, in America it's totally good so far except for maybe California is a little iffy right now. Kathleen: Yeah, definitely. Definitely. But it's interesting the direction everything's heading. It'll be interesting to see where it goes. Okay. Well- Alex: It will be, but it's not like these go away. You can use these same strategies ... Once you get this testing strategy down, you can use it for Facebook ads, you can use it for cold LinkedIn messages. You can use it for text messages. You can use it at events just like testing your elevator pitch at events. It's all the same kind of thing. Just taking words and trying to test the way that you're phrasing things to find ... it's almost unlocking a lock. You want to find a way of wording your business that gets people to buy. How To Learn More About Alex's Strategy Kathleen: Yeah. I love all of this. You've mentioned a couple things like you have a course and you have a YouTube channel. Can you say a few words about if somebody's intrigued and wants to learn more, where they can go to find more information? Alex: Sure. If you want us to do this for you, I would actually just start at the YouTube channel, AlexBerman.com will go right to the YouTube channel, and if you do want to learn this kind of stuff, it's Email10K.com, that's the course. Kathleen's Two Questions Kathleen: Okay, love it. Now, we can't finish up this interview without me asking you the two questions that I ask all of my guests. The first one being we talk a lot about inbound marketing on this podcast. Is there a particular person or company that you think is really just killing it right now with inbound? Alex: Really killing it with inbound. I'm actually not ... I haven't been impressed with very many people when it comes to inbound. Even the greats, I don't know if they're testing or what they're doing, but I see a lot of weird stuff. Kathleen: Oh yeah? Alex: Who have I really ... I actually like Russell Brunson, what he's been doing with his ad strategies, and he runs a SaaS. It doesn't even seem like it. He's selling a software as a service, but he's selling it like an info product. There's some real next level stuff that Russell Brunson's doing. Kathleen: Oh, I'll have to check him out, and I will share his name and the link to his stuff in the show notes. Alex: He does a two week free trial, and then it's only like $150 a month for his software, and somehow he's been able to frame his thing in a way where it appeals to B2B, it appeals to entrepreneurs, and it appeals to ... He's going after like people that are selling multilevel marketing. He's got everything down in terms of how he's framing his thing. Kathleen: Interesting. I can't wait to check that one out. Second question, the biggest kind of complaint I hear from marketers is that digital is changing so quickly. There's so much to keep up with. It's like drinking from a fire hose. How do you personally stay up to date and keep yourself educated on latest developments? Alex: So this sounds kind of counterintuitive, but what I've found is if you stick to the basics and you just try to get like those fundamentals right, everything comes into play. So for instance, when I was getting into Facebook ads, all I had to do was take the offer that I knew worked and put it in general targeting, and then the Facebook AI figured out what it was because we knew the offer worked. Same with YouTube videos. We just have to create content, and it'll find an audience because our offer system. So I think if you create a product that people want, and you phrase it in a way that is very hard to say no to, you'll win, and it doesn't matter if you're at an event or if cold emails get banned, or like cold calling doesn't work anymore. None of that will matter if you can crack that, and then number two is just go where your customers are. I've gotten a surprising amount of work off of Instagram recently. Like to the point where I barely even use LinkedIn anymore. Kathleen: Wow. Alex: But that just comes down to who my target audience is, right? I'm going after younger people now, especially for this course offer, and they're mostly on Instagram versus when I was going after office workers ... Actually, all the office workers are on email versus any of the other social media channels. So I honestly, I don't worry about that at all. Kathleen: That's great. You have figured something out, then, because the vast majority of the other folks I talk to stress about it a lot, so there's definitely a lesson to be learned on the approach that you're taking. Alex: Ooo, okay. So I actually did figure this out. So if you want to figure out where your clients are, write a super targeted Facebook ad and put like $100 in it, and what'll happen is you put no targeting in. The way that Facebook works now is they'll find buyers, and what I've found there is not only will they find out who your ideal buyer is, for instance one of our ads is targeting ... it's converting really good with women between ages 25-65+ which is crazy, and then one of our other ads is only for men which is great, but the main thing that I've found was if you go to placements, it'll tell you exactly where your ads are converting. So for instance, some of our ads do really well on Facebook. Actually, one of my consulting clients was only selling on Instagram. Like hard pitching Instagram, and when we did this ad test we found out a bunch of his people were on Facebook, and he went out and did the same cold pitching on Facebook, and it was like 10-20 minutes, and he already had a bunch of leads coming in. So that's another easy way to find it out. Kathleen: Yeah, you know it's interesting you bring that up because I found that too that paid ads in general are the fastest way to test messaging because you instantly can see what's working and what's not. Alex: Yeah, exactly. You can test messaging there, you can test placements, and then the way that Facebook ... Facebook's getting so smart in terms of their machine learning. So it'll give you data you didn't even know you had. The ad that I wrote, I had no idea it would appeal ... The one that hits women, I think it was getting add to carts for like $10 for $1,000 course which is crazy, but for men it was $16 with the same ad. So I had no idea. Kathleen: Which is still reasonable, but $10's better than $16 every day. Alex: Exactly. Especially when you're comparing it to ... I was at $100 before. Kathleen: Oh, that's great. Alex: But no, you have no idea. It's only the machine learning that taught me that this type of ad works for this market. Kathleen: Yeah, it's crazy what Facebook can do now. It's a little scary sometimes, but it's also really cool. Alex: Yeah. How To Connect With Alex Kathleen: Great. Well if somebody wants to connect with you, has a question, wants to learn more, how can they reach out to you? Alex: Best way to talk to me is to grab the course, Email10K.com. I'm in the Facebook group right now. It's unlimited consulting. If you do just want to like, talk for free, I would go to the YouTube channel. AlexBerman.com will go there. And just leave a comment. I'm usually in there. You Know What To Do Next... Kathleen: Okay. Great. I'll put those links in the show notes, and if you're listening and you liked what you heard or you learned something new, of course I would really appreciate it if you would leave a five star review on Apple Podcasts. That goes a long way to getting the podcast in front of other listeners like yourself who could find value, and if you know somebody doing kickass Inbound marketing work, tweet me @WorkMommyWork because I would love to interview them. Thanks, Alex. Alex: Thanks.

The Tamil film industry, commonly referred to as Kollywood, is a difficult place to break into and navigate as an artist. Nepotism is a mainstay, misinformation and competing interests regularly run amok, and projects can get stalled at every step of production. How does an actor stay sane in this crazy place? How can he chart a career when so many factors influencing it are out of his control? And how can he maintain a healthy balance between his public image and his personal life? These are the questions we discuss with actor Ashwin Kakumanu today. Ashwin has been working in Kollywood since 2011, when he acted in Nadunisi Naaygal (trans: Midnight Dogs, 2011). He then went on to work with established stars like Ajith (Mankatha) and Surya (7aum Arivu, trans: Seventh Sense), after which he branched out into leading projects himself in films like Megha (2014) and Zero (2016). He recently starred in one of the first Tamil webseries in the industry - Nila Nila Odi Vaa (2018) - available for viewing on the streaming platform Viu. Our discussion with Ashwin is a deep dive into Ashwin's journey in cinema, from starting out a huge Star Wars buff to short filmmaker to actor, and it's also an honest discussion of the challenges he has faced in the industry. He also discusses his move into the digital space - he's working on another webseries - and how he's building his brand outside the multiplex. It's a candid look at Kollywood from someone who has made a career in it over the last eight years. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we did.

The Swedish Scene – 50 Jahre EMS Stockholm | Symposium 14.06.2014 Wiebke Spieker will give a (short) overview about Åke Parmerud‘s biography in the first part of her talk. As a composer working in the electronic and electroacoustic music scene in Sweden since the late 1970s, the developments of the three institutions Fylkingen, EMS, and Sveriges Radio have been decisive for his biography. To get a complete overview about Parmerud‘s work, she will extend her considerations to the subjects ‚installations‘ and ‚stage art‘./// For his music and media art works Parmerud won several prizes, including the Giga-Hertz- and Walter-Fink-Prize awarded by the ZKM./// At the end she will shortly present the two works that won the Giga-Hertz-Prize (2008: La Vie Mécanique) and the Walter-Fink-Prize (2011: The Seventh Sense (together with Mireille Leblanc), and the comissioned works by these prizes. Wiebke Spieker studied musicology and Scandinavien studies at University of Cologne (bachelor degree since 2012). Therefore she travelled to Sweden to study the history of electronic and electroacoustic music at the EMS Stockholm and to do an interview with Åke Parmerud in Gothenburg for her bachelor thesis. In October 2012 she proceeded with her studies in musicology for her upcoming master degree. Besides her studies, she is working in the field of concert organisation, mostly for contemporary music and (urban) sound art.

Fast food chains in China have stopped using products supplied by a Shanghai meat processing plant over allegations that it was supplying stale meat and mislabeling expiration dates. Shanghai-based Dragon TV aired a news program on July 20th, claiming that Shanghai Husi Food Company had supplied products tainted with reprocessed stale meat to a string of fast food chains and restaurants across China. The expose is another blow to western fast food chains like McDonald's and KFC, which have been implicated in a number of food safety scandals involving suppliers over the years. McDonald's issued a statement over the alleged malpractice at Husi, saying it had stopped using all food materials supplied by the meat processor. In a separate statement, KFC said some of its restaurants in south China's Fujian Province will stop selling certain products due to the food safety incident. Shanghai's municipal food and drug watchdog has ordered that production at the company's food processing plant in suburban Shanghai be suspended following the television expose. The company is an "A-Level enterprise" graded by the local regulator, and is subject to two reviews every year. Sampling tests the company underwent during its review for the first half of this year showed no problems. Officials from Shanghai's municipal food safety office said the fact that regulators take action only after violations are exposed suggests that their day-to-day oversight is not effective. This is NEWS Plus Special English. Ailing Chinese moon rover Yutu, the "Jade Rabbit", might have been damaged by knocking against rocks on a lunar surface that is more complicated than expected. Yutu is China's first moon rover. It drove onto the lunar surface in December last year as part of the Chang'e-3 lunar mission. But in January, it suffered a "mechanical control abnormality" which has continued to trouble it ever since. Experts' initial judgment for the abnormality was that the rover was "wounded" by colliding with stones while moving. A major challenge for the robot has been the temperature fluctuation of 300 degrees Celsius on the moon. When the sun sets, the solar-powered rover must hibernate to survive the night. Yutu has fulfilled all its missions including surveying the moon's geological structure and surface substances, as well as looking for natural resources. Yutu has managed to survive seven lunar nights so far. One lunar night is equivalent to around 14 days on Earth. Night temperatures can fall to minus 180 degrees Celsius. You are listening to NEWS Plus Special English. I'm Yun Feng in Beijing. China will launch a high-definition Earth observation satellite, Gaofen-2, to space this year. The Gaofen satellite series is one of China's major science and technology projects. It helps in areas such as geographic and resource surveys, environment and climate change monitoring, precision agriculture, disaster relief and city-planning. Gaofen-1 was launched in April last year and still in service. Gaofen-2 was the first of several satellites to be launched for high-definition Earth observation before 2016. Equipped with cutting edge technology, the satellite will be able to "see" clearly a one-meter-long object on earth in full color. This is NEWS Plus Special English. China's largest telecom firm China Mobile has revealed plans to build 500,000 4G base stations by the end of this year. 4G international roaming services will be opened in another 50 countries and regions which Chinese tourists frequently visit. China Mobile's services currently cover the United States, Brazil, Japan, South Korea and Singapore, among other countries. Its customers can access 4G services through a new 4G Universal Subscriber Identity Module card without changing their number or going through registration. China Mobile will also do more to handle the problem of malware, junk messages and pornography. You are listening to NEWS Plus Special English. I'm Yun Feng in Beijing. The music video for Chinese pop singer Jane Zhang's latest single "Forever" has premiered online. "Forever" is the leading track from the singer's new album "The Seventh Sense" which came out earlier this month. The video uses 3D effects to build a surreal setting, highlighting the song's message of eternal love. The music video first premiered on sina.com's entertainment channel. Zhang rose to fame after coming in third-place in the first season of China's TV singing contest "Super Girl" in 2006.
