The Simple Shift That Turned My Low-Converting Offer Into Scalable Success Let me say something that might feel like a relief: you don't need more offers. What you actually need is a clear path for your audience to say yes. In this episode, I'm sharing a massive mindset and strategy shift I made in my own business—one that took me from trying to push the “perfect” pre-course product to finally understanding how to guide my audience in a way that felt seamless (and profitable). After realizing only 8% of students who bought List Builders Society went on to join Digital Course Academy, I knew something was broken. That's when I created a simpler, faster offer that actually met my audience where they were—and completely changed how I think about selling. This episode will help you see where your current offers might be out of alignment, how to build momentum before your signature offer, and why fewer, more intentional offers are the key to long-term success. P.S. I've been experimenting with how I start each episode. Do you like it when I get right to the story, or would you rather I slow down and say a proper hello? DM me on Instagram (@amyporterfield) and let me know what you prefer. I truly want your feedback! HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Just Because an Offer Delivers Results Doesn't Mean It's Aligned – If your audience isn't naturally progressing into your signature program, it might be time to rethink the journey instead of the content. 2️⃣ One Strategic Offer Can Unlock Bigger Results Than Five Random Ones – The right next step, designed to build belief and momentum, can do more for your business than a library of products ever could. 3️⃣ Success Starts With Simplicity and Clarity – When your audience knows what to do next (and feels ready to do it) you'll convert more, scale faster, and serve better.

Hannah Cole is back on So Money — and just in time. You may know her as the founder of Sunlight Tax, or from her game-changing workshops that help creatives and freelancers make sense of their money. But today, she's here to share insights from her forthcoming book, Taxes for Humans, which might just be the most approachable — and dare I say, funny — tax book you'll ever read.In this conversation, Hannah and I dive into the emotional baggage so many of us carry around taxes: shame, intimidation, even fear. She opens up about being dismissed by a traditional accountant early in her career, and how that lit the fire for her to become a voice for those often left out of financial conversations — women, artists, freelancers, anyone who's ever felt like a “weirdo” in the world of money.We talk about how to avoid the dreaded tax bill shock, what the IRS really cares about, why freelancers need to understand quarterly taxes, and what you should know if you're married and your spouse is handling the taxes (spoiler: pay attention!). Plus, Hannah shares the number one thing new business owners should do to feel confident and in control of their taxes.
You DON'T need a huge network, online presence, or social media following to invest in real estate. This small-town investor got started the old-fashioned way—picking up the phone and pounding the pavement—which helped him scale his real estate portfolio to 25 rental units in just five years. Want his personal playbook? Then stay tuned! Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! When the University of Minnesota Crookston dropped its football program, former offensive coordinator Jared Hottle didn't know where to turn. After moving back to his home state of Iowa in search of his next career move, a friend introduced him to BiggerPockets. Jared caught the real estate bug, became a licensed agent, and started driving for dollars. It wasn't long before he had closed on not one but two duplexes—in the same week! Since then, Jared has scaled to 25 rental units in just a few years. What's more? He's done it without a big personal brand, social media presence, or podcast, and prefers to hustle offline and host his own local meetups. In this episode, he'll share why real estate investing is a “contact sport,” how to use partnerships to grow your portfolio faster, and when to pivot to another investing strategy! In This Episode We Cover How Jared built a real estate portfolio with 25 rental units in just FIVE years How to find off-market deals using the driving for dollars strategy Estoppel agreements explained (and why you NEED one when inheriting tenants) How to build your investing network without a strong online presence The secret to a successful real estate partnership (and how to structure one!)

Our CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson explains how his outlook on earnings and valuations give him a constructive view on U.S. equities for the next 12 months.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Mike Wilson: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley's CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist. Today on the podcast I'll discuss where there is the most push back to our Mid-year outlook and why I remain convicted in our generally constructive view on U.S. equities for the next 12 months.It's Monday, June 2nd at 11:30am in New York.So, let's get after it.To briefly summarize our outlook, we have maintained our 6500 12-month price target for the S&P 500 this year despite what has been a very volatile first five months – both in terms of news flow and price action. Part of the reason we didn't change this view stems from the fact that we expected the first half to be challenging for U.S. stocks but to be followed by a more favorable second half. Much of this was related to our view that the new administration would pursue the growth negative part of their policy agenda first. This played out -- with their focus on immigration enforcement, spending cutbacks and tariffs. In addition to these policy adjustments, we also expected AI capex to decelerate in the first half after such fast growth last year. All of these factors conspired to weigh on both economic growth and earnings revisions.Second, the way in which tariffs were rolled out on Liberation Day was a shock to most market participants, including us, and served as the perfect catalyst for what can only be described as capitulation selling by many institutional investors. That capitulation has set the stage for the very reflexive snap back in equity prices that is also supported by a positive rate of change on policy, earnings revisions breadth, financial conditions and a weaker U.S. dollar.The main push back to our views centers on our constructive earnings outlook for high single digit growth both this year and next and our view that valuations can remain elevated at 21.5x forward Earnings. On the earnings front, our calendar year earnings estimates already incorporate a mid-single-digit percent hit to bottoms-up consensus forecasts. Second, our Leading Earnings Indicator which projects Earnings Per Share growth 12 months out is suggesting a sideways consolidation in growth in the high single-digit range over the next year.Third, a weaker dollar, elements of the tax bill and AI-driven productivity should be incremental tailwinds for earnings that are not in our model. Fourth, we have experienced rolling recessions for many sectors of the private economy for the last 3 years, which makes growth comparisons easier. Finally, and most importantly, the rate of change on earnings revisions breadth has inflected higher from a very low level after a year-long downturn. On valuation, our work shows that if earnings growth is above the long-term median of 7 percent and if the fed funds rate is down on a year-over-year basis, it's very rare to see multiple compression. In fact, Price Earnings multiples have expanded 90 percent of the time under these conditions to the tune of 9 percent over a 12- month period. Therefore, in some ways we're being conservative with our forecast for the S&P 500's price earnings ratio to remain flat at current levels over the next year.With respect to our favorite valuation metric, the equity risk premium, it's interesting to note that in the week following Liberation Day, the Equity Risk Premium reached the same level we witnessed in the aftermath of the 9-11 shock in 2001 and even exceeded the risk premium reached during the Long-Term Capital Management crisis in 1998. Both episodes resulted in 20 percent corrections to the S&P 500 much like we experienced this year only to be followed by very strong equity markets over the next year.The bottom line is that I remain convicted in both our earnings forecast for high single digit earnings growth for this year and next; and my view that valuations can remain elevated in this classic late cycle expansion of slower economic growth that typically elicits interest rate cuts from the Fed.Thanks for tuning in; I hope you found it informative and useful. Let us know what you think by leaving us a review; and if you find Thoughts on the Market worthwhile, tell a friend or colleague to try it out!

On a recent coaching call, we spoke with a new teacher who was feeling great about a math quiz her students had just aced—until she wasn't. The quiz focused on using the array model for multiplication, and students were awarded points for drawing the array and getting the right product. But when we looked deeper, something didn't sit right: Did these scores truly reflect her students' understanding and grade-level expectations? In this episode, we unpack what was missing from the math assessment and why simply getting the “right answer” isn't enough. We explore the importance of strategy sophistication, the difference between additive and multiplicative thinking, and how to design math assessments that actually measure mathematical proficiency.In this episode, you'll discover:High scores don't always mean high levels of understanding in math.Strategy sophistication matters—especially in assessing multiplication.Math assessments should reflect not just answers, but the thinking behind them.Teachers can refine math assessment practices to better capture student growth and proficiency.Not sure what matters most when designing math improvement plans?

It's easy to get caught up chasing likes and followers, only to realize none of it's actually moving the needle in your business. Social media can feel like shouting into a void—constant posting with little return. The real frustration kicks in when you see attention but not action, interest but no income. Most of the time, it's not about doing more, but understanding what actually makes people stop, trust, and buy. Without that clarity, all the noise just becomes more weight on your shoulders. Lindsey Anderson has redefined how entrepreneurs use digital tools to attract clients and grow online. With two decades of experience and a sharp focus on results, she's built a system that turns social media into a consistent lead generator. Today, she breaks down how AI, especially tools like ChatGPT, can streamline content creation and boost client acquisition. Her message centers on taking radical responsibility, building smart systems, and showing up with a clear plan. It's not about chasing trends—it's about using the right tools with purpose.

I would very like to get a review from you. Please send a note to me. Thanks, Peter! like to much appreciate a review from you!! Thank you!The growing economic power of the Hispanic community in America presents an unprecedented opportunity for savvy PR professionals. When Susana Mendoza joined the Public Relations Review Podcast, with host Peter Woolfolk, she illuminated why reaching this vital demographic isn't just smart business—it's essential strategy."Right now, Latinos make up about 65 million people, approximately 19% of the overall population," Mendoza explains, before revealing the projection that truly demands attention: by 2050, the Hispanic population will reach 100 million. With the annual US Latino GDP hitting a staggering $4.1 trillion in 2023—growing faster than China and India—this represents a market segment too powerful to ignore.Yet many PR agencies still treat Hispanic outreach as an afterthought or special add-on rather than a fundamental component of comprehensive campaigns. Mendoza challenges this approach, advocating for intentional inclusion that recognizes the nuances within Hispanic communities. "The mistake that PR companies make when dealing with Hispanics is thinking they're a monolith," she cautions, noting that cultural differences between Hispanic communities in different regions require tailored approaches.The conversation delivers practical insights on navigating Spanish-language media landscapes, creating family-centered events that resonate with Latino audiences, and building authentic partnerships with Hispanic community organizations. Perhaps most valuable is Mendoza's insider perspective on the current state of Spanish-language newsrooms, which face even greater staffing shortages than their English counterparts. Her advice on providing ready-to-use content and maintaining direct relationships with journalists offers PR professionals a roadmap for successful media placement.Whether you're looking to expand your PR agency's service offerings or seeking to connect with the Hispanic market for your organization, this episode provides the cultural context and strategic framework for meaningful engagement.

On this episode of The Horizon, John discusses the recent court ruling striking down President Trump's tariffs and its broader economic and real estate implications. He explains how the legal back-and-forth introduces uncertainty, raising recession risks and inflationary pressures, which in turn could stall business investment and construction. John then examines how various commercial real estate sectors—apartments, retail, office, and industrial—are likely to be impacted by the economic turbulence, highlighting apartments as a relative safe haven. He closes with a deep dive on the timing of buying and selling real estate in light of potential tax code changes, especially the return of 100% bonus depreciation, and why he believes long-term fundamentals still support strategic acquisitions.

After the federal court's ruling against Trump's reciprocal tariffs, and an appeals court's temporary stay of that ruling, our analysts Michael Zezas and Michael Gapen discuss how the administration could retain the tariffs and what this means for the U.S. economy.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Michael Zezas: Welcome to the Thoughts on the Market. I'm Michael Zezas, Morgan Stanley's Global Head of Fixed Income Research and Public Policy Strategy.Michael Gapen: And I'm Michael Gapen, Chief U.S. Economist.Today, the latest on President Trump's tariffs.It's Thursday, May 29th at 5pm in New York.So, Mike, on Wednesday night, the U.S. Court of International Trade struck down President Trump's reciprocal tariffs. This ruling certainly seems like a fresh roadblock for the administration.Michael Zezas: Yeah, that's right. But a quick word of caution. That doesn't mean we're supposed to conclude that the recent tariff hikes are a thing of the past. I think investors need to be aware that there's many plausible paths to keeping these tariffs exactly where they are right now.Michael Zezas: First, while the administration is appealing this decision, the tariffs can stay in place. But even if courts ultimately rule against the Trump administration, there are other types of legal authorities that they can bring to bear to make sure that the tariff levels that are currently applied endure. So, what the court said the administration had done improperly was levy tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).And there's been active debate all along amongst legal scholars about if this was the right law to justify those tariff levies. And so, there's always the possibility of court challenges. But what the administration could do, if the courts continue to uphold the lower court's ruling, is basically leverage other legal authorities to continue these tariffs.They could use Section 122 as a temporary authority to levy the 10 percent tariffs that were part of this kind of global tariff, following the reciprocal trade announcement. They also could use the existing Section 301 authority that was used to create tariffs on China in 2018 and 2019, and extend that across of all China imports; and therefore, fill in the gap that would be lost by not being able to use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to tariff some of China's imports.So bottom line, there's lots of different legal paths to keep tariffs where they are across the set of goods that they're already applied to.Michael Gapen: So, I think that makes a lot of sense. And with all that said, where do you think we stand right now with tariffs?Michael Zezas: So, if the court ruling were to stand then the 10 percent tariffs on all imports that the U.S. is currently levying, that would have to go away. The 30 percent tariffs on roughly half of China imports, that would've to go away. And the 25 percent tariffs on Canada and Mexico around fentanyl, that would have to go away as well.What you'd be left with effectively is anything levied under section 232 or 301. So that's basically steel, aluminum, automobile tariffs. And tariffs on the roughly half of China imports that were started in 2018 and 2019. But as we said earlier, there's lots of different ways that the authority can be brought to bear to make sure that that 10 percent import tariff globally is continued as well as the incremental tariffs on China.But Michael, turning to you on the U.S. economy, what's your reaction to the court's ruling? It seems like we're just going to have a continuation of existing tariff policy, but is there something else that investors need to consider here?Michael Gapen: Well, I'm not a trade lawyer. I'm not entirely surprised by the ruling. It did seem to exceed what I'll call the general parameters of the law, and it wasn't what we – as a research group and a research team – were thinking was the most likely path for tariffs coming into the year, as you mentioned. And as we, as a group wrote, we thought that they would rely mainly on section 301 and 232 authority, which would mean tariffs would ramp up much more slowly. And that's what we had put into our original outlook coming into the year.We didn't have the effective tariff rate reaching 8 to 9 percent until around the middle of 2026. So, it reflected the fact that it would take effort and time for the administration to put its plans on tariffs in into place. So, I think this decision kind of shifts our views back in that direction. And by that I mean, we originally thought most of 2025 would be about getting the tariff structure in place. And therefore, the effects of tariffs would be hitting the economy mainly in 2026.We obviously revise things where tariffs would weigh on activity in 2025 and postpone Fed cuts into 2026. So, I think what it does for the moment is maybe tilts risks back in the other direction. But as you say, it's just a matter of time that there appears to be enough legal authority here for the administration to implement their desires on trade policy and tariff policy. So, I'm not sure this changes a lot in terms of where we think the economy's going. So, I'm not entirely surprised by the decision, but I'm not sure that the decision means a lot for how we think about the U.S. economy.Michael Zezas: Got it. So, the upshot there is – really no change from your perspective on the outlook for growth, for inflation or for Fed policy. Is that fair?Michael Gapen: That's right. So, it's still a slow growth, sticky inflation, patient Fed. It's just we're kind of moving around when that materializes. We pulled it into 2025 given the abrupt increase in in tariffs and the use of the IEEPA authority. And now it probably would come later if the lower court ruling stands.Michael Zezas: Right. So, sticking with the Fed. Several Fed speakers took to the airwaves last week, and it sounds like the Fed is still waiting for some of these public policy changes to have an effect on the real economy before they react. Is that a fair way to characterize it? And what are you watching at this point in terms of what determines your expectations for the Fed's policy path from here?Michael Gapen: Yeah, that's right. And I think, given that the appeals court has allowed the tariffs to stay in place as they review the lower court, the trade court's ruling, I think the Fed right now would say: Okay, status quo, nothing has changed.So, what does that mean? And what the Fed speakers said last week, and it also appeared in the minutes, is that the Fed expects that tariffs will do two things with respect to the Fed's mandate. It'll push inflation higher and puts risks around unemployment higher, right? So, the Fed is offsides, or likely to be offsides on both sides of its mandate.So, what Fed speakers have been saying is, well, when this happens, we will react to whichever side of the mandate we're furthest from our target. And their forecasts seem to say and are pretty consistent with ours, that the Fed expects inflation to rise first, but the labor market to soften later. So, what that means for our expectations for the Fed's policy path is they're likely to be on hold as they evaluate that inflation shock.And we'll keep the policy rate where it is to ensure that inflation expectations are stable. And then as the economy moderates and the labor market softens, then they can turn to cuts. But we don't think that happens until 2026. So, I don't think the ruling yesterday and the appeal process initiated today changes that.For now, the tariffs are still in place. The Fed's message is it's going to take us at least until probably September, if not later, to figure out which way we should move. Moving later and right is preferable for them than moving earlier and wrong.Michael Zezas: Got it. So bottom line, from our perspective, this court case was a big deal. However, because the administration has a lot of options to keep tariffs going in the direction that they want, not too much has really changed with our expectations for the outlook for either the tariff path and it's not going to fix to the economy.Michael Gapen: That's right. That's, I think what we know today. And we'll have to see how things evolve.Michael Zezas: Yep. They seem to be evolving every day. Mike, thanks for speaking with me.Michael Gapen: Thank you, Mike. It's been a pleasure. And thanks for listening. If you enjoy the show, please leave us a review wherever you listen and share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or colleague today.
Our Head of Corporate Credit Research explains why the legal confusion over U.S. tariffs plus the pending U.S. budget bill equals a revived focus on interest rates for investors.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Andrew Sheets: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Head of Corporate Credit Research at Morgan Stanley.Today I'm going to revisit a theme that was topical in January and has become so again. How much of a problem are higher interest rates?It's Friday, May 30th at 2pm in London.If it wasn't so serious, it might be a little funny. This year, markets fell quickly as the U.S. imposed tariffs. And then markets rose quickly as many of those same tariffs were paused or reversed. So, what's next?Many tariffs are technically just paused and so are scheduled to resume; and overall tariff rates, even after recent reductions towards China, are still historically high. The economic data that would really reflect the impact of recent events, well, it simply hasn't been reported yet. In short, there is still significant uncertainty around the near-term path for U.S. growth. But for all of our tariff weary listeners, let's pretend for a moment that tariffs are now on the back burner. And if that's the case, interest rates are coming back into focus.First, lower tariffs could mean stronger growth and thus higher interest rates, all else equal. But also importantly, current budget proposals in the U.S. Congress significantly increase government borrowing, which could also raise interest rates. If current proposals were to become permanent. for example, they could add an additional [$]15 trillion to the national debt over the next 30 years, over and above what was expected to happen per analysis from Yale University.Recall that prior to tariffs dominating the market conversation, it was this issue of interest rates and government borrowing that had the market's attention in January. And then, as today, it's this 30-year perspective that is under the most scrutiny. U.S. 30-year government bond yields briefly touched 5 percent on January 14th and returned there quite recently.This represents some of the highest yields for long-term U.S. borrowing seen in the last two decades. Those higher yields represent higher costs that must ultimately be borne by the U.S. government, but they also represent a yardstick against which all other investments are measured. If you can earn 5 percent per year long term in a safe U.S. government bond, how does that impact the return you require to invest in something riskier over that long run – from equities to an office building.I think some numbers here are also quite useful. Investing $10,000 today at 5 percent would leave you with about $43,000 in 30 years. And so that is the hurdle rate against which all long-term investments or now being measured.Of course, many other factors can impact the performance of those other assets. U.S. stocks, in fairness, have returned well over 5 percent over a long period of time. But one winner in our view will be intermediate and longer-term investment grade bonds. With high yields on these instruments, we think there will be healthy demand. At the same time, those same high yields representing higher costs for companies to borrow over the long term may mean we see less supply.Thank you as always, for your time.

Kurt Carlton discusses the inefficiencies of the MLS for a good real estate investment strategy. It's currently hard to find good deals, an MLS doesn't show the scale of vacant housing in the U.S., and some sellers often prefer off-market options that avoid inspections and repairs. We also talk broader market dynamics as today's challenges stem not from distressed sellers, as in 2008, but from an aging housing stock and a severe shortage of new construction. Local real estate investors are best positioned to help restore inventory by rehabilitating vacant homes, offering a scalable solution to a long-term housing crisis. We discuss... Kurt Carlson has nearly 20 years of experience in real estate, specializing in distressed and value-add residential properties. Unlike the MLS, Kurt's real estate platform targets off-market and undervalued properties not suited for traditional homebuyers. The MLS is inefficient for distressed properties, as typical buyers are discouraged by repairs and inspections. Investors view property issues as opportunities to create value through design, rehab, and operational efficiency. Many realtors prefer listing distressed homes on Kurt's marketplace rather than handling inspections and contractor coordination. Local investors can rehab properties more efficiently and cost-effectively than distant or uninformed sellers. There are roughly 15 million vacant homes in the U.S., presenting massive hidden inventory potential. Despite high housing demand, new construction is at historic lows—fewer homes are being built now than in 1992. Builders face high regulatory costs, land expenses, tariffs, labor shortages, and unpredictable demand cycles. Government programs often inflate demand rather than addressing supply constraints in affordable housing. Local real estate investors are critical to solving the housing crisis by repurposing vacant homes into livable inventory. Supply-demand imbalance persists because builders can't profitably create affordable housing in high-demand areas. There is plenty of capital in the market, but the housing market is not clearing due to mismatches in pricing and affordability. Out of all homes sold in the U.S., one in five is purchased by a real estate investor, the majority of whom buy fewer than 10 homes per year. The perception that Wall Street is dominating the housing market is misleading; most activity is by small business operators. There is strong demand for single-family rentals (SFR), especially for families who don't want to live in apartments. Revitalizing a few homes in neglected neighborhoods can start a chain reaction that attracts more investment and increases values.

Key Topics Covered Life Lessons from Officiating a Wedding Karl opens up about his experience presiding over his niece's wedding. He shares heartfelt advice on partnership, the value of keeping your inner child alive, embracing life's ups and downs, and why “together forever” is a powerful North Star for couples and business partners alike. The importance of mindset—advancing, not retreating, in marriage and business—is highlighted, along with practical methods for maintaining positivity (like using standup comedy as a daily mood boost). Licensing vs. Franchising—Profit Powerhouses Explained Karl breaks down the pivotal difference between licensing and franchising, offering memorable real-world examples: Licensing: Earning royalties from intellectual property (like Disney does by licensing characters for merchandise) with little risk or hard cost. Franchising: Replicating a full business model with training and brand support (think McDonald's, Subway). He spotlights the Blue Man Group's scalable licensing as a model for exponential growth and contrasts it with Siegfried & Roy's limited, high-earning but labor-dependent Vegas act. Karl also details what makes a business franchisable—and why some aren't. Warren Buffett's Rules and Strategies for Success Karl distills Warren Buffett's timeless investment wisdom for coaches and entrepreneurs: Understand and stick to the rules (profit, repeat business). Seek high-margin, habit-forming opportunities (buy for a penny, sell for a dollar). “Rule #1: Don't lose money. Rule #2: See rule #1.” Build a personal brand and keep clients just like getting clients. Practice extreme clarity: know what to say “yes” and “no” to. Harness the power of compounding, but don't wait ten years—use marginal utility theory for rapid incremental growth. Clarity, Focus, and Avoiding Distractions Karl ties elite execution to laser clarity—most entrepreneurs fail because of distraction or lack of clear direction. Eliminating distractions (social media, busy work) is as vital as mastering strategy. He advocates for serving first, delivering value before a sale, and focusing on the biggest problems you can solve. Coaching Operating Systems and Retention Practical advice centers on using a proven coaching operating system (like Karl's Jumpstart 12 or Profit Acceleration Software) to guarantee client wins, profit acceleration, and long-term engagement.

When it comes to data protection, the word “immutability” often feels like it belongs in the realm of enterprise giants with complex infrastructure and massive budgets. But during this RSAC Conference conversation, Sterling Wilson, Field CTO at Object First, makes a strong case that immutability should be, and can be, for everyone.Wilson brings a grounded perspective shaped by his experience on the floor at RSAC, where Object First made its debut as a sponsor. The energy, he notes, was contagious: not just among vendors, but also from practitioners expressing serious concerns about their ability to recover data post-incident. These conversations weren't hypothetical; they were real worries tied to rising insurance premiums, regulatory compliance, and operational survivability. And at the core of all this? Trust in the data backup process.Agentic AI, AI capable of making decisions independently, is one of the trends Wilson flags as both promising and risky. It offers potential for improving preparedness and accelerating recovery. But it also raises concerns around access and control of sensitive data, particularly if exploited by adversaries. For Sterling, the opportunity lies in combining proactive readiness with simplicity and control, especially for those who aren't traditional security practitioners.Object First is doing just that through OOTBI: Out of the Box Immutability. And yes, there's a mascot: OOTBI. More than just a marketing hook, OOTBI represents a shift toward making backup and recovery systems approachable, usable, and, importantly, accessible. According to Wilson, the product gets users from “box to backup” in 15 minutes... with encrypted, immutable storage that meets critical requirements for cyber insurance coverage.Cost, Wilson adds, is a key barrier that often prevents organizations from reaching data protection best practices. That's why Object First now offers consumption-based pricing models. Whether a business is cloud-first or scaling fast, it's a path to protection that doesn't require breaking the budget.Ultimately, Wilson emphasizes education and community as critical drivers of progress. From field labs where teams can configure their own Opi, to on-location conference conversations, the company is building awareness, and reducing fear, by making secure storage not just a feature, but a foundation.This episode is a reminder that effective cybersecurity isn't only about innovation; it's about inclusion, practicality, and trust... both in your tools and your team.Learn more about Object First: https://itspm.ag/object-first-2gjlNote: This story contains promotional content.
