Lured Up Podcast 368 Live Streamed on - 10/21/25 Publish Date - 10/24/25 Pokémon Trainers everywhere are torn between Legends Z-A on Switch and the Level 80 grind in Pokémon GO! Luckily for PGO Trainers, the Legends Z-A Event gave us some slight crossover to scratch the itch. It was Mega Rayquaza Raid Day however, that brought the Trainers out over the weekend. Communities everywhere were putting in big numbers to take down the Sky High Pokémon. With Raid numbers like we are seeing, we can only imagine what Mega Dragonite or Mega Mewtwo will do. Spooky Season is officially here with the return of the Halloween Event, which brings a little bit of everything over the rest of the month. New Pokémon, new Shinies, and new Costumes will fill our inventories as we continue our push to the upper levels. We check in on our progress and share some best practices for some of the initial tasks to complete after Level 70. We still have plenty of time in October, but we already have the November Content Update which of course includes the Wild Area. This event has proven to be exciting and a fantastic draw for Communities. We have a feeling that GMAX Grimmsnarl will keep us on the grind along with Shadow Darkrai. The Wild Area hype can only be bested by one thing, GO Fest hype. The local Fox news affiliate in Chicago dropped a bombshell that Pokémon GO will be returning to Grant Park in 2026 with the option of 2027. We are VERY excited for this announcement as Grant Park provided an incredible backdrop for GO Fest, with great terrain, views, and a straightforward layout. The City Experience element will bring new experiences for Trainers, and we have plenty of time to prepare.  Legends Z-A Event Mega Rayquaza Raid Day GO Pass Halloween Halloween Part 1 Halloween Part 2 Level 80 Grind November Content Update Enchanted Hollow Into The Wild GO Fest Chicago Stay up to date by adding our Google Calendar to your account!

Suneera Madhani built Stax from an idea her employer rejected into a $1B fintech unicorn processing over $25B in payments. In this interview, the Stax co-founder shares how she went from selling credit card terminals out of her car to pioneering the first subscription-based payment processor, raising over $500M in capital, and scaling a company now generating $120M+ in revenue.

What you'll learn from this interview: • How Suneera turned a rejected idea into a billion-dollar company • The scrappy marketing tactics that got her first 250 customers • Why she turned down a $17.5M acquisition offer early on • The lessons from raising over $500M in funding and navigating investors • How to build an MVP using white-label solutions and customer feedback • The importance of execution and focus over “big ideas” • Why resilience, intuition, and community are critical for long-term success • The rebrand from FatMerchant to Stax and what it taught her about scaling By the end of this interview, you'll walk away with proven insights for scaling a fintech or SaaS company from zero to unicorn status—so you can apply the same strategies to grow your own business with focus and resilience.

Think your “brand” is a logo, font, and color palette? That's polish—not branding. Real ecommerce branding makes customers feel understood, builds instant trust, and increases conversions across your product pages, emails, and social. In this episode, I break down what I've learned working with branding expert Camille Moore on our new Ecommerce Branding Blueprint inside Foundr+. You'll get the principles and system I wish every founder used before launching—so your store stops feeling “nice” and starts feeling necessary. Here's what you'll take away: • Why logo ≠ brand: your brand is the feeling a customer has the first time they see you • The trust shortcut: people don't buy when they understand you—they buy when they feel understood • The 4 brand pillars that drive sales: product, story, experience/consistency, visual identity • Signals that cost $0 but increase conversions: clear messaging, cohesive copy, on-brand emails, credible packaging/photos • Social proof that compounds: why ambassadors (from micro-creators to industry names) build authority fast • Why branding must be a system, not a vibe—and how to apply it storewide If you implement even one of these trust signals this week, you'll feel the lift: lower bounce, higher add-to-cart, and a brand that finally reads “this is for me.” This is a brand new solo series I'm testing, and I'd love your feedback. Email me directly at nathan@foundr.com — I read every reply. Hope you enjoy it.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode Joe Marconi, former shop owner, Elite Worldwide coach, is defining the challenge in today's automotive aftermarket: the need for specialization. The End of the Generalist Era - Modern vehicles are too complex for the “all makes, all models, all repairs” approach. Marconi shared that when he tried doing everything—from transmission rebuilds to diagnostics—profitability disappeared. The time, training, and tooling required simply didn't make sense. Specialization: The Smarter Path Forward - Like medicine's cardiologists and neurologists, automotive professionals must focus their expertise. Specialization boosts productivity, profit, and performance while creating better outcomes for customers. Redefining Professionalism and Language - Replace “mechanic” or “tech” with “technologist” or “specialist.” - Use precise titles like “calibration specialist” to build client confidence. - Adopt “Essential Skilled Occupation (ESO)” to better reflect the professionalism of today's technicians. Building Career Paths and Attracting Talent - Specialization creates clear career pathways and helps combat the technician shortage, offering young people a profitable, purpose-driven alternative to a four-year degree. Listeners can explore Carm's evolving document, The Rise of the Specialist—now in its 23rd version—online. https://remarkableresults.biz/rise Joe Marconi, Executive Council Member, Elite Worldwide. Auto Shop Owner.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode How much should you invest in your shop? Forget the spreadsheets! We're challenging the conventional wisdom of ROI with three industry titans who discuss building resilience, culture, and high-tech expertise in any market. We sat down at ASTA 2025 in Raleigh with Matt Fanslow, Tommy Markham, and Zeb Beard to dive deep: - The Constableville Paradox: Hear from Tommy Markham about investing in full ADAS calibration equipment for a town that "has exploded to 300 people" and has no stoplights. His motivation? Simply "doing the job right" and ensuring local body shops don't have to flatbed cars 35 miles away. Tommy also stands firm on pricing, refusing the "$99 alignment dilemma." - The Zeb Beard Investment Strategy: Zeb Beard reveals why traditional ROI calculations are sometimes useless: you can "talk yourself out of buying anything". His massive 62,000 square foot shop (which once had clouds inside and includes nine bedrooms) is itself a "worldwide marketing tool." When in doubt, Zeb's famous advice is always: "Pull the trigger!" - Navigating Volatility: Since COVID, Zeb notes that business graphs now fluctuate wildly between record high months and record low months. The solution? Being resilient and focusing on "doing the right thing." The conversation also explores the balance between working in and on the business, the importance of continuous learning, and how authenticity and integrity keep shops resilient through economic swings. remarkableresults.biz/a455 https://astausa.org/pages/asta-expo Thanks to our Partner, NAPA TRACS NAPA TRACS will move your shop into the SMS fast lane with onsite training and six days a week of support and local representation.

Lured Up Podcast Live Streamed on - 10/15/25 Publish Date - 10/17/25 The wait for the Level 80 rebalance made October 15th one of the longest days ever. From little to no communication from Niantic, Trainers had no clear answer as to when the rebalance would happen. As the day went on patience grew thin, the anger started boiling over, and the crash outs began. Finally, at around 4pm ET the update launched and the community took a deep breath and focused on the path ahead. The last week of gameplay included the Harvest Festival and Solosis Community Day, which gave Trainers some fun and varied gameplay. Mossy Lures covered the gameboard and the events and bonuses stacking made for an awesome Sunday. Even with the failed launch of Weekly Challenges, many Trainers had an awesome time playing over the weekend. The Legends Z-A event hits this week, and the event is a bit lackluster. While it does bring a branching Timed Research, this event on paper seems to be a bit slower than what we have been used to lately. This weekend however, brings the return of Mega Rayquaza which will surely bring Trainers out. We look to Pokebattler and GO Hub to put together a Raid Guide and Battle Party.pro-tip, bring Ice. We close things out with a discussion around November's Into The WIld event. With an event ticket and it's own GO Pass, it begs the question of how much is too much. The overlapping spending opportunities press our ability to say no, especially when the Silver Bottle Cap is part of the rewards for the Deluxe GO Pass. Let us know what you thing, not just about the amount of event tickets, but the newer trend of overlapping GO Passes, which may put some Trainers over budget.

Tezza Barton bootstrapped the Tezza app from a two-person passion project into a 25M+ download, $38M/year creative-tech brand—with just 15 employees and zero paid ads for the first four years. In this interview, Tezza breaks down the scrappy path from negative bank balances and collage kits in a 250-sq-ft apartment to building a category-defining editing app and community that creatives actually love. From community-led growth and brand-first product design to pricing pivots, lean teams, and culture-shifting collabs, you'll learn exactly how she scaled profitably while staying fan-obsessed and creatively uncompromising. What you'll learn from this interview: • How Tezza grew a bootstrapped, creator-led app to 25M+ downloads and ~$38M revenue • The community-first playbook: DMs, feedback loops, and building demand before launch • Product-led marketing: naming filters (e.g., “Wildflower”), seasonal drops, and experiential launches • Pricing and retention: recovering from a bumpy subscription rollout and increasing LTV • Why a lean, high-leverage team can out-execute bigger competitors • Collaboration strategy: pitching value, co-creating effects, and tapping partner audiences • Creative brand building: designing an app like a beauty brand, not a utility • Where AI helps (ops, grunt work) without replacing human taste, curation, and intent By the end of this interview, you'll walk away with a proven roadmap to build, market, and scale a profitable consumer app—so you can turn audience insight and great creative into durable, compounding growth SAVE 50% ON OMNISEND FOR 3 MONTHS Get 50% off your first 3 months of email and SMS marketing with Omnisend with the code FOUNDR50.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode Scott Brown shares his insights on key challenges in the automotive aftermarket, including ADAS, EV maintenance, and industry adoption. ADAS Calibration and LiabilityScott emphasizes the importance of proper ADAS calibration, required by manufacturers after certain repairs. Skipping it exposes shops to liability, and he advises refusing jobs if required calibration is declined. Despite its necessity, the industry adoption is low. EV Tooling and SafetyWhile basic shop tools suffice for many EV services, high-voltage work demands safety training and PPE. Looking ForwardUsing his aviator metaphor of “runway,” Scott stresses that shops must evolve, specializing in ADAS and EV maintenance to stay competitive as EVs become the future of mobility. Scott's insights make one thing clear: the automotive industry is changing fast, and shops that embrace ADAS and EV expertise now will be the ones leading the market tomorrow. Staying informed, trained, and prepared isn't just smart—it's essential for long-term success. Scott Brown, Founder of Diagnostic Network. Scott's previous episodes HERE.

Paul Durelli returns to The Corporate Escapee Podcast one year after his first appearance to share what's changed, what's working, and where he sees the biggest opportunities for corporate and medical professionals looking to escape traditional systems.In this conversation, Brett and Paul explore how AI, automation, and virtual assistants can help GenX escapees scale their businesses without hiring full-time employees. Paul also explains how he's helping medical professionals escape the bureaucracy of healthcare and build profitable, flexible practices in functional medicine.They cover why every solo business owner eventually pays an “Ignorance Tax,” how to turn that into an automation advantage, and why building your digital backbone early—CRM, SMS, AI follow-ups—can save years of frustration. Paul also shares a powerful “found money” idea: adding an ADA accessibility widget to your site that qualifies you for a $5,000 federal tax credit every year.What You'll Learn:• The Ignorance Tax: when to stop DIY-ing and pay for speed and expertise• The tech stack every solo business needs to scale (CRM, SMS, email, AI)• How to delegate effectively and build your first small remote team• Lessons from doctors escaping into functional medicine and how that model applies to corporate escapees• How to find “found money” opportunities like the ADA tax credit that deliver instant ROIKey Moments:00:00 – Welcome back and recap of Paul's first appearance02:00 – Why medical professionals are escaping corporate medicine09:00 – The Ignorance Tax and when to hire help10:30 – The best automation and CRM tools for solos20:00 – ADA tax credit: how it works and why it matters28:00 – How small, AI-enabled teams are outpacing big companies35:00 – The mindset shift from worker bee to queen bee39:00 – Continued learning, avoiding the comfort trap, and staying curious41:00 – Where to connect with Paul and learn moreResources Mentioned:• Paul Durelli – Digital Kahuna: www.digitalkahuna.com• CRM Tool – Go High Level• Book – “Pro Voice” by JT O'DonnellConnect with Paul:Visit www.digitalkahuna.com for courses, automation services, and details on the ADA $5,000 tax credit offer.

Silent Beacon panic button for personal and workplace safety: how a stuntman's accident sparked a Bluetooth emergency device that now protects home-health workers, educators, social services, and more—with 911 calling, dashboards, and OTA updates. Kenny Kelley, CEO and founder of Silent Beacon, shares how a motorcycle crash inspired a hands-free panic button that pairs with your smartphone to call 911 and alert contacts when you can't reach your phone. The product started as a consumer safety device for runners, students, and seniors, then demand shifted during COVID as businesses needed discreet protection for staff entering unknown environments—home healthcare, social services, education, nonprofits, and government. Kenny explains real-world use cases, from mental-health interventions where responders needed both hands free, to lighter moments (like rescuing someone stuck in a tree house) that show the device's range. He outlines the tech evolution: improvements in Bluetooth stacks on iOS and Android, Qualcomm chipsets, better mics/speakers, and over-the-air firmware updates for rapid fixes. For organizations, the dashboard shows connection status, triggers parallel alerts (push, SMS, email, phone) to teams while 911 or a monitoring center is contacted, and supports company-wide follow-ups after events. Design trade-offs matter: keep it sleek and discreet for daily wear while ensuring buttons are deliberate enough to avoid false alarms. Kenny also addresses accessibility and dignity for seniors and people with disabilities, noting plans for a standalone cellular version for environments where phones aren't allowed. Finally, he clarifies connectivity: 911 calling works without a data plan; location “blips” require Wi-Fi or cellular data.

You might expect my favorite interviews to be with Richard Branson, Tony Robbins, or Barbara Corcoran. But one that surprised me — and stuck with me more than most — was with Scooter Braun. In this episode, I share the lessons Scooter taught me about resilience, humility, and the real human side of entrepreneurship. From his honesty about burnout and blind spots, to Jeff Bezos' reminder that true success is simply about evolving, this conversation hit me harder than most. Here's what you'll take away:• Why resilience and self-reflection matter more than achievements• The trap of chasing milestones instead of being present• Why building a family and community beats building an empire If you've ever felt the pressure to keep proving yourself, this episode will remind you that success isn't just about what you build — it's about who you become along the way.

Pia Mance started Heaven Mayhem in 2022 with just $900 and scaled it into a $10M accessories brand in under three years. In this interview, Pia breaks down the scrappy steps she took to launch her first collection, the grassroots marketing hacks that made her products go viral, and how celebrity moments like Hailey Bieber wearing her designs gave the brand instant credibility. From handmaking necklaces in her living room to building an accessories empire stocked in global retailers like Selfridges, Pia shares exactly how she grew fast without outside investment—and the mindset shifts that kept her moving forward. What you'll learn from this interview: • How Pia launched Heaven Mayhem with just $900 • The scrappy tactics she used to get her first sales • Why “done is better than perfect” became her growth mantra • How grassroots marketing can look like a $50K campaign (on a $300 budget) • What happened when Hailey Bieber wore Heaven Mayhem • How to scale products from handmade to factory production • Why community-first brand building is more powerful than metrics • How she scaled to $10M in revenue without outside funding By the end of this interview, you'll walk away with a proven blueprint for taking an idea from scrappy beginnings to a multi-million dollar brand—so you can apply the same principles to your own eCommerce journey.

Lured Up Podcast 366 - Find Your Way Live Streamed on - 10/7/25 Publish Date - 10/10/25 It's another news heavy week as Niantic continues to pump out blog after blog. With the last week including Mega Metagross and DMAX Duraludon, many Trainers had an active and busy weekend of gameplay and it doesn't appear to be letting up anytime soon. This next week brings us the Harvest Festival, which if Trainers want to make the most of, will put the GO Plus+ on the back burner and require faces to be in front of screens. This is a great technique by Niantic to get Trainers re-engaged with focused gameplay. GMAX Grimmsnarl has been announced for the GO Wild Area, as the event keeps getting stronger and stronger. This event has cemented its place in the annual major event lineup and is getting the features and releases to back that up. Hopefully we will see significant differentiation between it and other events like GO Fest or GO Tour. Perhaps they can deliver a unique experience via a GO Pass or Special Research. We skim over a bunch of events that will arrive in the coming weeks, with the most notable being the return of Mega Rayquaza. This is one of those events that will have the hand of Eternatus reaching into Trainer's pockets and urging them to Raid as much as possible. There aren't too many Pokémon that will bring people out than Rayquaza. Still no word on if we will see any guaranteed Meteorites or how that will work this time around. Wayfarer has detailed their 2025-2026 roadmap, and it looks to become a more personal tool. From monthly recognition emails to the mention of a new Wayfarer map, this is a great time to get involved. We discuss the incredible feeling of having a POI added to the game as well as the agony of defeat when things get rejected. Some Wayfinders consider Wayfarer its own game, and the roadmap is looking to support it with new tools and features. Make sure you check out the Wayspotters Podcast to learn more about how you can get involved!

At Viirtue Connect in Nashville, Jason Moravec, Senior Channel Account Manager at Xima Software, joined Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, to discuss how Xima's advanced contact center solutions are helping MSPs expand revenue, strengthen customer relationships, and enhance user experience. Xima Software delivers cloud-based contact center and customer experience platforms designed to integrate seamlessly with leading UC systems like NetSapiens, which powers Viirtue and other Crexendo partners. “We focus on helping businesses communicate more effectively across every channel—voice, SMS, email, chat, and WhatsApp,” Moravec explained. “It's all about elevating the customer experience.” Through its integration with NetSapiens, Xima offers white-label, multi-channel contact center solutions that partners can brand as their own. The platform enhances standard UC capabilities with detailed analytics, cradle-to-grave reporting, and intelligent call routing—all designed to help MSPs deliver a premium service that customers can't easily replace. “Contact centers are incredibly sticky,” Moravec said. “When partners win the contact center, they often win the entire business. It's one of the most profitable and high-value parts of the UC ecosystem.” Xima also integrates AI and speech analytics to improve agent productivity and customer outcomes. From sentiment and tone detection to AI-powered chatbots and voice assistants, the platform uses automation to reduce call volume, speed up responses, and provide data-driven training insights. “Our AI isn't about replacing humans—it's about getting people to the right place faster and making agents more effective,” Moravec emphasized. For MSPs and Viirtue partners, Xima's solutions represent a powerful opportunity to differentiate, expand service offerings, and grow recurring revenue.

With over 30 years in wireless—from helping pioneer intercarrier SMS to running mobile identity operations across Americas and Asia Pacific — Eddie DeCurtis saw what others missed: 967 of 1,000 global mobile network operators lack the infrastructure to monetize CPNI data while protecting customers from fraud. The technical challenge isn't building APIs. It's that operators spent billions on 5G infrastructure and now lack capital, internal expertise, and operational frameworks to launch authentication services. In 18 months, Shush went from PowerPoint to 30 employees, supporting 47 network APIs with full GSMA Open Gateway compliance. Eddie shares how understanding regulatory frameworks by jurisdiction, not just deploying technology, became their competitive moat—and why hiring the executive who built T-Mobile USA's authentication platform gave them credibility no competitor could match. Topics Discussed: Why operators repeatedly said "we want to do it, we have no idea how, we have no money, we don't have a platform" Validating the thesis with former AT&T Communications CEO John Donovan before launching Securing a POC with a major operator pre-incorporation—with only a PowerPoint deck The three-legged stool: technology, network integration, and business operations (where competitors fail) Why knowing privacy regulations for CPNI data sharing by country became a deal-closer Reducing network integration from dozens of touchpoints to three specific network elements Supporting 8 Linux Foundation Camara APIs and TS.43 GBA AKA authentication standard Going from 3 to 30 employees and launching at Mobile World Congress on a $75/night Airbnb budget GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Validate with the person most likely to kill your idea: Eddie deliberately chose John Donovan—former CEO of AT&T Communications, board member at Lockheed and Palo Alto Networks—specifically because "he's going to be rough, he's going to totally ask the really hard questions." When Donovan's response was "go raise $40 million and own this space...you're not going to be alone for long," the validation carried weight because it came from someone incentivized to find fatal flaws. Most founders validate with friendly audiences or investors looking for deals. Find the battle-tested executive who has nothing to gain from being kind. Convert pre-product conviction into design partner commitments: Eddie secured a POC agreement with a major operator before Shush incorporated. "I had nothing. I didn't have software. We had an idea, we had a PowerPoint presentation." This only works when you've spent decades building domain expertise and relationships. The lesson isn't "sell vaporware"—it's that deep industry knowledge lets you articulate problem-solution fit so precisely that sophisticated buyers commit before seeing code. Infrastructure founders with 10+ years in-market can accelerate 12-18 months of product-market fit by converting expertise into early design partnerships. The enterprise moat is operational knowledge, not technical capability: Eddie's thesis: "Anybody can come up with the technology. You walk down the street in the Bay Area, 10 developers will develop it for you." Shush differentiated by answering questions competitors couldn't: How do you price SIM swap detection per query? What are CPNI data sharing regulations in Indonesia versus Brazil? How do you navigate internal stakeholder alignment across legal, privacy, and regulatory teams at a tier-one operator? When Eddie told an operator "here's the privacy rules for your country" after they admitted "I have no idea," he closed a knowledge gap that pure technology vendors can't fill. In regulated infrastructure markets, execution expertise beats technical superiority. Target the ambition-capability gap in capital-constrained buyers: Operators told Eddie the same story: eager to launch authentication services, zero clarity on execution, budgets decimated by 5G spending. This created perfect conditions for a full-stack solution. "Mid-market is hard because you have a buyer with problems that are not basic anymore, but they lack the ability to execute." Shush didn't sell point solutions—they delivered technology, integration, and business operations as a turnkey package. Identify buyers with sophisticated needs, strong intent, and constrained internal resources. That's where full-stack platforms win over point tools. Hire the operator who ran your exact use case at scale: Eddie cold-called John Morrowton, who "built this actual product and service offering at T-Mobile USA, from its inception to its execution and ran it for four years." His pitch: "I'm Eddie DeCurtis, how are you? You want a job? You're Chief Product Officer." Hiring someone who'd operationalized authentication services at a tier-one carrier gave Shush instant credibility with operator buyers and compressed years of trial-and-error into institutional knowledge. In infrastructure sales, hiring executives from reference customers eliminates "can you actually do this" objections before they surface. Minimize integration surface area to accelerate deployment: Mobile operators run highly secure networks with limited external access points. Shush "narrowed it down to three network elements that we can communicate with to provide all 47 APIs." Fewer integration points means faster deployment, lower implementation risk, and reduced operator IT overhead. This architectural decision became a sales accelerator. Infrastructure founders: identify the minimal viable integration that unlocks maximum API coverage, then make that your differentiated deployment story.   //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Most founders obsess over tactics, hacks, and strategies. But the truth? None of it matters if you don't have the right mindset. In this episode, I share the mental frameworks I've learned after a decade of building Foundr and interviewing 100+ of the world's most successful entrepreneurs. From why 50% of success comes down to belief, to how to reframe failure as data, these are the mindset shifts that will keep you in the game long enough to win. Here's what you'll take away: • Why every founder needs to think in decades but act in days• How to stop comparing your chapter 1 to someone else's chapter 20• The simple shifts that turn fear and failure into growth If you're feeling impatient, doubting yourself, or wondering why success is taking so long, this episode will give you the perspective and tools to reset, refocus, and keep building.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode This episode explores how the automotive industry can attract and retain skilled professionals by transforming both its language and its workplace culture. The words we use shape public perception, influence recruiting, and build long-term respect for the profession. Beyond language, the discussion dives into the physical and cultural environment of repair shops. Topics include maintaining clean, professional spaces that foster pride, offering work-life balance to prevent burnout, and ensuring fair pay progression with clear career paths. To build a sustainable future, the automotive industry must evolve in how it speaks, works, and cares for its people.Professional language, modern environments, fair pay, education, and a sense of pride in quality will redefine automotive careers as essential, respected, and rewarding.

The world feels unsettled, people are anxious, and as leaders, we're left asking: What does this mean for my business?

It's 24 pages of the exact frameworks, conversation starters, SMS templates, and tracking tools I've used with high-performing practices to make retail feel like patient care instead of sales.

W pierwszym odcinku przewodnika "Plan Działania", poświęconym alarmom i alertom, dowiesz się, jak kluczowe dla bezpieczeństwa są wiedza i przygotowanie. Wyjaśniamy działanie kilku systemów ostrzegania, w tym Alertu RCB (SMS-a, który jest prostą i skuteczną informacją, porównywaną do budzika) oraz bezpłatnej aplikacji RSO. Poznaj również znaczenie sygnałów syren alarmowych – modulowany dźwięk oznacza ogłoszenie alarmu, a ciągły jego odwołanie, przy czym oba trwają 3 minuty. Ponadto omawiamy aplikację Alarm 112, która szybko przesyła Twoją lokalizację służbom, a także dlaczego warto mieć listę ważnych kontaktów zapisaną na kartce, gdy sieć jest przeciążona i SMS-y przechodzą szybciej niż połączenia.

A handful of news stories have caught our eye recently, so we're rounding them up this week. We start with a pair of stories about everyone's least favorite subject, SMS spam, one involving an organized crime ring and the other vulnerable everyday infrastructure. Then we move on to a recent blog post by one of iRobot's founders, in which he expresses extreme wariness about the safety of humans interacting with humanoid robots. Lastly, with only a week and change to go until Windows 10 EOL, we look at Valve's ending support for the 32-bit Steam client (and the end of 32-bit Windows in general) and some predictions for how things might go when the deadline comes... assuming Microsoft doesn't blink at the last minute.‘SIM Farms' Are a Spam Plague.

Phoebe Gates went from failed prototypes in her Stanford dorm room to building one of the fastest growing fashion-tech startups in the world. In this interview, the co-founder of AI shopping app Phia shares how she and her co-founder Sophia Kianni scaled from 200 early users to half a million downloads, raised $9M from investors like Kleiner Perkins, Kris Jenner, and Sara Blakely, and turned their vision into a personal AI shopping assistant trusted by a new generation of consumers. From building in public and hacking growth with feedback loops to pitching high-profile investors and navigating privilege, Phoebe breaks down the exact strategies that fueled her rapid rise as a young founder. What you'll learn from this interview: • How Phoebe went from 50+ failed ideas to finding product-market fit in fashion-tech • The grassroots tactics she used to get her first 200 users • Why feedback loops and “pizza nights” became their biggest growth hack • How she pitched and secured investors like Kleiner Perkins, Kris Jenner, and Sara Blakely • The mindset shift that helped her see failure as experimentation • Why building in public became an unfair advantage for distribution and community • How to leverage AI and automation as a young founder to scale faster By the end of this interview, you'll walk away with a playbook for finding your idea, validating it with real users, and scaling it into a fast-growth business—so you can apply the same principles to your own entrepreneurial journey.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode The Karen Cooper Foundation, founded by Bob Cooper and his daughter Michele, honors the legacy of Bob's late wife, Karen, by bringing Christmas joy to shelter dogs through toys and treats. What began as a family tradition in San Diego has grown into a nationwide nonprofit, gifting thousands of dogs each year while raising awareness for adoption and responsible pet ownership. As a 501(c)(3) charity, every donation goes directly to the animals, providing enrichment, comfort, and hope until they find their forever homes. The foundation's roots trace back to an annual tradition Karen and Bob started years ago. Inspired by Karen's question, “What happens with all these dogs on Christmas morning?” she suggested, “Why don't we bring Christmas to them?”—sparking a mission that continues today. In 2023, after life-changing events including Bob's sale of Elite Worldwide and the heartbreaking loss of Karen in a Memorial Day weekend car accident, Bob and Michele formalized the foundation to honor and celebrate Karen's legacy. The Karen Cooper Foundation operates with three key goals: Bring Christmas joy to shelter dogs, ensuring they experience the magic of the holiday.Raise awareness about adoption, helping dogs and puppies find their forever homes.Honor Karen's legacy, keeping her spirit alive through every act of giving. Through every gift and act of kindness, the Karen Cooper Foundation ensures Karen's spirit lives on, bringing hope, joy, and a brighter future to dogs in need. https://www.karencooperfoundation.org/ Thanks to our Partner, NAPA TRACS NAPA TRACS will move your shop into the SMS fast lane with onsite training and six days a week of support and local representation.

Lured Up Podcast 365 Live Streamed on - 9/30/25 Publish Date - 10/3/2025 When you think about it, this week was completely normal. Wake up, open the game, go to work, come home, go to bed, then repeat. The culture of routines that this game has created provide Trainers with the consistent backbone to their day. As Pokémon GO Trainers, we really do have a unique approach to how we game, with gameplay styles that are diverse and personalized. Being a current Pokémon GO Trainer is a great thing.  Mega Camerupt gave IRL Trainers the opportunity to have another day of grinding which could evolve into a Trade Day afterparty. With most events happening on Sundays, it lines up perfectly, but for next Saturday's Meta Metagross Raid Day, we may see the first stand alone Trade Day Campfire events. We can't hype up enough how awesome Trade Days are and how they managed to create a weekly event that pairs perfectly with off screen activities.  Looking at the October Calendar, we see a balanced month of events, new releases, and the return of the Halloween Event. Mega Metagross has been a long time coming so we put together a Battle Party and check out Pokebattler and GO Hub to review what counters to bring. Hopefully we see some fun and unique battle parties out there as the Counter list is exceptionally diverse. Let us know what you are bringing! We wrap things up by spending a hypothetical $20 in the webstore and opening a conversation about spending in general. One thing the game does well is to tap into our emotions to influence spending, even when the purchase may not lead to what you want or expect. Impulsive behaviors, FOMO, and so many other factors play a role in how much and how often we spend. Does this give Trainers agency to be an individual, or does it drive Trainers apart? We dig in deep!

Are you ready to finally get your planner or journal into the hands of customers? In this episode, I share 10 powerful strategies to sell your planner, plus the pros and cons of each. From Kickstarter campaigns to email marketing, I'll show you what's worked for me over the past decade running a 7-figure planner business. You'll learn: The best way to launch without spending your own money Why Shopify is the gold standard for selling planners The truth about wholesaling, Amazon, and subscription boxes How to leverage influencers, conferences, and corporate gifting Why email + SMS marketing are the secret to repeat customers Whether you're just starting out or ready to scale, this episode will help you create a plan to grow your planner business with confidence. About me: I'm Polly Payne, CEO and founder of Horacio Printing. I've sold over 45,000 Dream Planners worldwide, along with Bible studies and journals. Now, I teach other dreamers how to do the same through Print School. Your Next Steps:

Most founders think they need a completely original idea to succeed. The truth? Great businesses are often built by borrowing brilliance — and putting your own spin on what already works. In this episode, I break down the concept of “good artists copy, great artists steal,” and show you how to apply it in your business. From how I grew Foundr's Instagram to how I built and exited my ecommerce brand, Healthie, this approach has helped me create traction faster without reinventing the wheel. Here's what you'll take away: • Why borrowing proven strategies beats starting from scratch • Real examples of how top brands like Canva, Airbnb, and Dollar Shave Club modeled what worked • How to ethically “steal” ideas, put your own twist on them, and win in your market If you're stuck thinking you need the next revolutionary idea, this episode will free you to focus on what matters most: finding what already works, making it better, and making it your own. This is a brand new solo series I'm testing, and I'd love your feedback. Email me directly at nathan@foundr.com — I read every reply. Hope you enjoy it.
