This week we take a step back and listen to some of the tops tips from our previous guests. There is one thing that Jim Reid, Steve Faulkner, Jeff Cowan and Mike Jones all have in common – everything centres round the customer. Whether it's in sales or aftersales, good customer service, and a good customer journey, are the keys to success. Of course, we all know this, but sometimes we get bogged down in the minutiae and forget the basics. A good episode to refocus all our minds for the year ahead. Here are the highlights: {02:27} Chasing the pound {06:11} Importance of upselling in service {08:59} Map the customer journey {13:17} Keep the customer and the vehicle for longer About Symco Training: Symco Training was founded in 2000 by Simon Bowkett and it was his belief that the business had to offer its clients something different. That difference was clear to Simon from his days in the dealership when he experienced many sales trainers who had all the answers, but were unable, unwilling or both to actually show the delegate how they could be implemented. It remains the ethos of the business today. You see, Symco only employ trainers that are committed to delivering not only in spiring and insightful training, but are equally as happy to demonstrate these skills and techniques with real customers in your own showroom. We believe in order for sales training to be effective and in Simon's words ‘real world', it needs to be tried and tested in the only place it matters the showroom floor. There is no room for theory when your goals are for your team to sell more cars, hours or parts and retain more profit. In dealerships around the world the focus applied by many of the sales executives is to try and sell a deal. Symco specialise in getting your teams to focus on selling themselves, the product and then supporting this with the deal. To find out more visit: www.symcotraining.co.uk

You might think that to lose weight you need to do strenuous exercise – pedalling furiously on an exercise bike, for example, or doing lengths in your local pool.您可能会认为要减肥,您需要进行剧烈运动——例如,在健身车上疯狂地踩踏板,或者在当地的游泳池里做长度。 Well, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that lying in a steaming bath can bring the same benefits as exercise, without the need to sweat profusely in the gym!好吧,您可能会惊喜地发现,躺在热气腾腾的浴缸里可以带来与锻炼一样的好处,而无需在健身房大汗淋漓!These were the findings of an experiment comparing the relative benefits of exercise and hot baths that was carried out by Dr Steve Faulkner of Loughborough University.这些是拉夫堡大学的史蒂夫福克纳博士进行的一项比较运动和热水浴的相对益处的实验的结果。 The volunteers first lay in a hot bath and then ate a light meal, while their blood sugar level was monitored and the number of calories they burnt was measured. 志愿者先洗个热水澡,然后吃一顿便餐,同时监测他们的血糖水平并测量他们燃烧的卡路里数量。The experiment was then repeated, but instead of having a bath, the participants did an hour's vigorous exercise on a bike. 然后重复实验,但参与者没有洗澡,而是骑自行车进行了一个小时的剧烈运动。The results from both activities were compared with unexpected results.将这两项活动的结果与意外结果进行了比较。“What we found”, said Dr Faulkner, “was an 80% increase in energy expenditure, just as a result of sitting in the bath for the course of an hour”. “我们发现”,福克纳博士说,“只是在浴缸里坐了一个小时,能量消耗增加了 80%”。You burn 140 calories – not as many perhaps as if you had worked out on an exercise bike, but the same number as if you had been on a brisk walk.你燃烧了 140 卡路里——可能不像你骑自行车锻炼那样多,但就像你快走一样。 The real surprise, however, came in the blood sugar level results.然而,真正令人惊讶的是血糖水平结果。 The peak glucose output, the amount of blood sugar in the blood after a meal, was on average10% lower after the bath compared to that after exercise.与运动后相比,沐浴后的峰值葡萄糖输出(即餐后血液中的血糖量)平均降低了 10%。Dr Faulkner's explanation for this phenomenon is that when you are in a hot bath, proteins, known as ‘heat shock proteins' are released, which help divert the sugar from the bloodstream to the muscles. 福克纳博士对这种现象的解释是,当你泡热水澡时,被称为“热休克蛋白”的蛋白质会释放出来,这有助于将糖分从血液中转移到肌肉中。It's important to keep blood sugar levels down to avoid damage to the arteries and nerves.重要的是要降低血糖水平以避免对动脉和神经造成损害。Don't think, though, that you can hang up your trainers just yet! You should aim to do at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise a week. 但是,不要认为您可以立即挂断您的培训师!您的目标应该是每周至少进行 150 分钟的中等强度运动。But, if you are one of those people who need to control their blood sugar levels – if you have type-2 diabetes for example or find it hard to exercise – why wait? Grab a towel and start running the hot tap!但是,如果您是需要控制血糖水平的人之一(例如,如果您患有 2 型糖尿病或难以锻炼),为什么还要等待呢?拿一条毛巾,开始运行热水龙头!词汇表strenuous 费劲的lengths 泳程,来回(游泳池的长度)profusely 大量地to monitor 监控,监测vigorous 剧烈的expenditure 耗费,消耗to work out 锻炼身体brisk 轻快的(步伐)glucose 葡萄糖phenomenon 现象divert 转化arteries 动脉intensity 强度diabetes 糖尿病

Today we're chatting with Steve Faulkner who is a viticulturalist with Oakridge wines based in the Yarra Valley. They're the unsung heroes behind that beautiful glass of rose or the flavours that jump out at you in your shiraz. Today's chat with Steve covers some technical aspects of wine making which is really interesting. Steve mentions in 2009 there was a significant shift in practices and weather patterns and this has led to adjusting how they actually grow the wines in the vineyard. With harsher, hotter summers and springs like this year that are very wet – the flow on effects of climate change are seeing harvests and seasons change. I had this "A-ha" moment during this. A lot of what Steve talks about around plant health and soil health reminded me a lot of what both Amy Knight in Ep (24) and Steph Geddes Ep (13) were talking about relating to people. As Steve talks about the cross-over between soil management I'm really surprised that more farmers generally aren't talking. I would love to float the idea of bringing together a group of people – not just farmers but from different aspects of the food system to come and chat the translation of healthy soils to healthy people and amazing products.

The South African government has again been criticized for arresting suspected illegal immigrants. The Coalition of Movements Against Xenophobia says the raids were a heavy-handed response that have seen families separated and has led to various human rights abuses. In the latest raid, about 400 immigrants were arrested last Friday in an operation at the Central Methodist Church, a well-known shelter for refugees in downtown Johannesburg. To discuss the matter further Sakina Kamwendo spoke to Steve Faulkner, of the Coalition of Movements Against Xenophobia and spokesperson for the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Migration, Pumla Williams
In Episode 9, ‘Web Accessibility for JavaScript Components and Custom Elements'. Steve Faulkner (@stevefaulkner) from The Paciello Group and Marcy Sutton (@marcysutton) from Substantial discuss the lack of focus in product development today in building accessible applications & services. Many times web accessibility becomes an afterthought in creating a software product, having little prioritization from the business side until it is a problem. Retrofitting such an important part of our development can make web accessibility seem more like a chore with low ROI for the the time taken to implement it. It can be easy if developers know how to do it and hardly any work when it is successfully incorporated into a development process and it's valued at the business level. With recent advances in the past few years in JavaScript MV* frameworks like Angular, React, & Ember we are seeing the need for web accessibility more and more. Heavy JavaScript applications tend to provide little or wrong functionality for things we take for granted like keyboard access. Examples on modifying these to better attend to user experience traditionally meant lots of overhead in development by forking the framework and updating it constantly. Based on the resources developers typically find in online searches & Roles the lack of good developer examples, WAI ARIA & even simple accessibility is easy to misunderstand. Many newer client side frameworks focus on componentization of HTML elements. Angular Directives, Ember Components, React Classes and Web Components. Componentization gives developers a chance to build much faster and easier Web Accessibility using various tools like WAI ARIA roles at a much more focused & reusable level. What is the future of Web Accessibility with these technologies? Why are we so concerned about Web Accessibility?

Web accessibility takes place on a foundation of technologies, the most common of which are developed and maintained by the Worldwide Web Consortium, or W3C. Its success is dependent on how well these underlying technologies support accessible user experiences. Fortunately for us, people like Steve Faulkner devote much of their time to ensure technology specifications, such as HTML5, include the hooks that make it possible to build an accessible and enjoyable user experience for everyone.
