Send Jackie A Message!Before every onsite VIP day, I send an anonymous upward feedback survey to my client's team. It's the fastest way to read the real culture of a studio, the stuff owners can't see because they're too close to it. And after running this survey at studio after studio, the same three things come up every single time.In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on exactly what your teachers say when no name is attached to their answer. Not to make you nervous, but to give you a head start, because there's a very good chance your teachers are feeling the same way right now.TIMESTAMPS[00:00] Welcome[02:15] What a VIP day is, and the anonymous upward feedback survey explained[04:30] Why this survey matters: leading a mostly part-time, passion-driven team[06:10] #1 Teachers want more feedback on their teaching[08:00] The 3-to-1 feedback ratio and the one-thing-only rule[10:15] #2 Teachers want more continuing education[12:30] How to build a CE budget and quarterly cadence without losing time or profit[14:20] #3 The one that surprises owners: teachers want more business communication[17:00] What teachers actually want to know about the numbers[18:30] The fear of transparency, and the question to sit with if it feels loud[20:40] The simplest move of all: just askKEY TAKEAWAYSAn upward feedback survey is the fastest way to read the real culture of your studio, because owners are usually too close to see it themselves.When you give a teacher feedback, name three specific things you loved for every one thing to work on. Give just one thing, then follow up in two weeks.Set a continuing education budget at the start of the year and aim for one event per quarter. Who shows up tells you who your all-in teachers are.You cannot over-communicate with your team, but you can communicate badly. Streamlined beats scattered group texts every time.Sharing your membership goal and progress rarely leads to raise requests. It usually makes teachers more bought in and more willing to help you grow.PULL QUOTES"Your teachers are hungry to grow. They are just waiting for someone to help them.""Give one clear thing to work on. If you overwhelm them with too much, nothing gets integrated.""I have never walked into a VIP day and heard that an owner over-communicates. Only the opposite.""If you want to know what your teachers want, ask them."FAQQ: What is an upward feedback survey? A: An anonymous survey that lets your team give honest feedback to the person who leads them. It surfaces what it is really like to teach at your studio.Q: How often should I give teachers feedback on their classes? A: You do not need to be in every class every week. Aim for intentional, specific feedback with a two-week follow-up so teachers can actually improve.Q: Will sharing business numbers make my teachers ask for raises? A: Rarely. Teachers do not see your full P&L, so they lack the whole picture. You decide what to share. Most teachers just want to help you hit the goal.Q: How much continuing education should I offer? A: One event per quarter is plenty. Use the feedback patterns you notice across your team to choose what to teach.Have a topic you want covered on the podcast?

If you've ever watched a crab dart across a beach, you've probably noticed something strange - that they almost never walk forward. Instead, they scuttle sideways with surprising speed and agility, a movement so iconic it has practically become the defining feature of crabs themselves. Now, scientists have published in the journal eLife that they believe they know where this unusual walk came from. Researchers studying crab movement discovered that sideways walking likely evolved only once in the history of “true crabs,” a group known scientifically as Brachyura. That's remarkable because in evolution, useful traits often appear independently many times. Wings evolved separately in birds, bats, and insects. Streamlined body shapes evolved in dolphins and sharks despite them not being closely related. But sideways walking? Scientists think crabs only invented it once, and then stuck with it. The researchers studied how 50 different crab species moved, filming them individually in specially designed arenas that mimicked their natural environments. When they mapped those movements onto the crab family tree, a striking pattern appeared - most modern crabs inherited their sideways movement from one ancient ancestor. At first glance, walking sideways seems awkward. But for crabs, it may actually be a survival superpower. Crabs have wide, flattened bodies with legs that naturally extend outward. Moving sideways allows them to move faster and more efficiently without constantly twisting their bodies. A sideways-moving crab can rapidly dart left or right in unpredictable bursts, making it harder for predators to anticipate where it will go next. Today there are nearly 8,000 known species of true crabs living in environments ranging from deep oceans to rivers, forests, and even land. The scientists believe this evolutionary shift happened shortly after one of Earth's major extinction events: the Triassic–Jurassic extinction around 200 million years ago. At that time, the world was changing dramatically and nature was opening up entirely new ecological opportunities. Crabs may have arrived with the perfect new adaptation at exactly the right moment. Scientists often talk about “carcinization” the repeated evolution of crab-like body shapes across different crustacean groups. Oddly enough, becoming crab-shaped has happened multiple times in evolutionary history. But sideways walking appears to have been much rarer. That suggests some behaviours are surprisingly difficult to evolve, even if they turn out to be highly successful once they appear. It's easy to dismiss a crab's sideways scuttle as just a quirky detail of nature. But this study suggests it may have been one of the most important movement innovations in marine evolution. A single change in how an animal moved may have helped crabs spread across the planet, adapt to countless environments, and become one of the most successful groups of crustaceans on Earth.

In this episode, Benny and Dennis sits down with Channing Moreland to talk about one of the biggest questions business owners eventually face: Are we really ready to exit our business? Together, they explore what “exit readiness” actually means—beyond just selling a company—and why many owners overestimate how prepared they truly are. The conversation focuses on the practical, financial, and personal realities of exiting a business, including how well the business runs without the owner, how clean and transferable the operations really are, and whether the owner is emotionally and financially ready for life after the sale.This episode is a candid look at common mistakes business owners make when planning an exit, the warning signs that a business is not yet ready to sell, and the key steps owners should be taking now—even if an exit is still years away.Whether you are thinking about selling soon or simply want to build a stronger, more valuable business, this discussion will help you better understand what it truly takes to be ready for a successful exitChanning Moreland the Co-Founder of EVA, a technology-driven platform transforming how companies book entertainment for their events.

In a recent episode of the award-winning Consumer Finance Monitor podcast, Alan Kaplinsky was joined by Nick Bourke, Kate Griffin, and Ballard Spahr partner Joseph Schuster to discuss a groundbreaking new report from the Aspen Institute Financial Security Program: United We Stand: A National Strategy to Prevent Scams. The episode builds on Nick and Kate's prior appearance on the podcast last July, when the report was still in development. Now finalized, the report offers one of the most comprehensive frameworks to date for addressing what has become a systemic threat to American households and the broader financial system. The Scope of the Problem: A Systemic Threat Frauds and scams are no longer isolated consumer protection issues. According to the report, U.S. households are losing an estimated $196 billion annually to scams — roughly $1 billion every couple of days. One in five American adults reports having lost money to an online scam. As Nick Bourke explained, today's scams are: ·                 Technology-enabled ·                 Highly organized and industrialized ·                 Often operated by transnational criminal organizations ·                 Accelerating due to AI and faster payment systems The so-called scam "lifecycle" includes four stages: 1.     Lead – Hooking the victim 2.     Deceive – Building trust (often through impersonation or relationship-building) 3.     Bleed – Extracting funds 4.     Clean – Laundering proceeds, often through cryptocurrency or offshore channels Different sectors see only fragments of this lifecycle; social media platforms may see the "lead," financial institutions the "bleed," and law enforcement the "clean." That fragmentation allows criminals to scale operations while defenders remain siloed. Why Scams Are Rising Despite Heavy Investment As Kate Griffin noted, industry and government are investing heavily in prevention. Yet scams continue to grow. Why? ·                 Fragmentation across sectors: No single actor sees the entire attack sequence. ·                 Outdated reporting infrastructure: Federal systems at agencies like the FBI and FTC remain manual and technologically antiquated. ·                 Regulatory uncertainty: Financial institutions and technology platforms face unclear expectations about what data they can use and share. ·                 Speed of modern payments: Faster money movement means faster losses. Joseph Schuster emphasized that many financial institutions are strongly incentivized to prevent fraud as they often bear reputational and financial risk when scams succeed. But legal ambiguity, especially under statutes like the Fair Credit Reporting Act, can chill data-sharing and innovation. Core Recommendations from the Aspen Report The report outlines both high-level national reforms and granular operational improvements with more than 180 specific ideas. 1. Elevate Scam Prevention to a National Priority The report calls for: ·                 A designated federal lead (or "czar") to coordinate strategy ·                 A whole-of-government approach ·                 Clear national goals and metrics Without centralized leadership, enforcement and regulatory actions remain fragmented.  2. Modernize Law Enforcement Reporting Systems Federal reporting portals, including Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs), the FBI's complaint systems, and the FTC's databases, require modernization. The report recommends: ·                 Streamlined, automated reporting ·                 Backend data interoperability across agencies ·                 Advanced analytics and AI tools for enforcement 3. Establish Clear Duties to Act Paired with Safe Harbors One of the most important themes discussed was the need for: ·                 Clear expectations for banks, telecom companies, and digital platforms ·                 Safe harbors that protect companies when sharing scam intelligence in good faith Countries like Australia have already codified such frameworks. The U.S. has yet to establish similarly coordinated standards. 4. Build a Cross-Sector Information-Sharing Ecosystem Effective scam prevention requires: ·                 Exchange of scam indicators (malicious URLs, compromised phone numbers, device patterns) ·                 Interoperable information-sharing platforms ·                 Privacy-preserving architecture ·                 Legal clarity to mitigate antitrust and consumer reporting concerns Joseph noted that industry appetite for collaboration is strong but clarity and guardrails are essential. 5. Consider a U.S. National Anti-Scam Center The report explores the idea of a centralized "front door", potentially something like stopscams.gov, that would: ·                 Serve as a national reporting hub ·                 Provide victim resources ·                 Facilitate coordination among law enforcement ·                 Support public education campaigns Social Media and Platform Responsibility The discussion also addressed the evolving role of digital platforms. Scam activity frequently originates through: ·                 Paid advertisements ·                 Dating applications ·                 Direct messaging ·                 Fake investment websites Compared to banks, social media companies operate within a less clearly defined regulatory structure. Courts are increasingly developing theories of "platform liability," but statutory clarity is lacking. The report urges policymakers to define reasonable expectations for platforms — paired with safe harbors and practical tools that empower prevention rather than merely assign blame. What Happens Next? The key question: who implements this strategy? Kate Griffin emphasized that this is a whole-of-society problem requiring coordinated action by: ·                 Federal leadership ·                 Congress ·                 Financial institutions ·                 Telecom and digital platforms ·                 Law enforcement ·                 Civil society There have been encouraging developments, including: ·                 Treasury and State Department sanctions targeting transnational scam networks ·                 A joint DOJ–FBI–Secret Service initiative targeting Southeast Asian scam operations o   But much more remains to be done. Nick Bourke suggested that, one year from now, real success would include: ·                 A designated federal anti-scam lead ·                 A congressional commission ·                 Measurable national prevention goals ·                 Corporate adoption of formalized anti-scam strategies Joseph Schuster added that industry innovation is ongoing, particularly in artificial intelligence, biometrics, and authentication, but warned that fragmented state-level regulation could complicate progress. Key Takeaways Alan Kaplinsky closed the episode with several important observations: ·                 Fraud and scams are now a systemic threat, not a niche compliance issue. ·                 Prevention, not just reimbursement, must be the organizing principle. ·                 Coordination matters as much as authority. ·                 Good-faith companies need regulatory clarity, not just enforcement pressure. ·                 Reducing scams strengthens trust in the U.S. financial system and digital economy. The Aspen report reframes the debate. Rather than assigning blame, it calls for aligned incentives, shared responsibility, and coordinated national action. If the title of the report, United We Stand, becomes reality, the United States may finally begin to bend the curve on one of the most costly and fast-growing threats facing consumers today.

On February 24, the Council of the European Union officially adopted the ‘Omnibus' directive. Key aspects of the ‘Omnibus' directive include changes to the scope of entities subject to the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) as well as guidance on simplified European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), sector guidance, assurance standards, and value chain reporting. This approval and other recent milestones in the EU legislative process and standard setting efforts are shaping the next phase of sustainability reporting. In this episode, we provide an update on the Omnibus package and discuss the latest developments in the proposed revisions to the ESRS. We explore what is expected to be finalized soon, where there is still opportunity for change, and the key implications for companies preparing for upcoming reporting requirements. In this episode, we discuss:2:48 – Updated scope and timing requirements for EU and non-EU entities11:14 – Streamlined general disclosure requirements and cross-cutting changes14:31 – Changes to double materiality and flexibility in the assessment process17:34 – Clarifications on mitigation, remediation, and assessing impacts22:54 – Reporting boundary updates, including the impact of leased assets and GHG emissions27:51 – New reliefs: reasonable and supportable information, acquisitions and disposals, and metric flexibility36:07 – What's next in the European Commission process and how companies can prepare nowLooking for more on sustainability reporting?Read PwC's Sustainability reporting guideCheck out other episodes in our sustainability reporting podcast seriesAbout our guestDiana Stoltzfus is a sustainability partner in the Professional Practice Group within the National Office.

Lany brings her banking background to this conversation - branch operations, mortgage processing, risk management, the whole deal. She's seen what happens when businesses don't have proper controls in place. She's also seen the theft, the fraud, and the embezzlement that follows. They walk through why your bookkeeper just paying the bill isn't oversight. Why the "put it on your personal card and expense it" model doesn't work anymore. Why most employees probably don't need company cards at all. And what to do instead - purchasing processes, approval limits, the works. If you've got company cards floating around and you're not 100% sure where they're saved or what they're being used for, this episode is for you. 00:00 - Introduction and WinCo shopping conversation 00:45 - The company credit card discovery story 02:00 - How easy it is to add cards to personal accounts 03:15 - Why checks and balances are critical 04:15 - Understanding financial leakages and OPM 05:15 - Risk tolerance and compliance boundaries 06:00 - The bookkeeper's role in reconciliation 06:30 - Small business vulnerabilities 07:00 - The American Express expense report model 08:00 - Individual card numbers and identification 09:00 - Generational differences in floating expenses 09:30 - Two-factor authentication and dual signers 10:00 - The four-step purchasing process 11:00 - Setting spending limits and approval levels 12:30 - Trusted contractors and liability 14:00 - Ethical contractor practices 15:00 - Who really needs a company card 16:00 - Onboarding and credit card policy documentation 17:00 - Honest mistakes vs. intentional fraud 18:30 - Simple prevention: stickers on business cards 19:00 - The debt obligation reality 20:00 - Rethinking your approach 21:00 - Executive branch only recommendation 22:00 - Streamlined purchasing processes 23:00 - Questions for your bookkeeper 24:00 - Real theft, fraud, and embezzlement experiences

Have an idea or tip? Send us a text!If your studio juggles spreadsheets, calendars, and three different apps just to run picture day, this conversation will feel like oxygen. The Dead Pixels Society sits down with Scott Rodgers and Peter Koop from Airstudio to unpack how a platform built by school photographers solves the messy middle of volume photography—linking CRM, senior bookings, staff scheduling, payroll, equipment, workflows, and e‑commerce integrations into one place.We start with the pain: Homegrown tools and generic CRMs can't handle the unique layers of school photography—schools as clients, parents as buyers, students as subjects—each with different needs and deadlines. Rodgers and Koop share how Airstudio centralizes everything from first contact and session reminders to school deliverables like PSPA exports and ID specs. With open APIs and data exchanges, it plays well with platforms such as GotPhoto, Captura, and Timestone, so you keep the storefronts you like while unifying the back office. The result is faster coordination, fewer errors, and a clear view of every job.Using a gross contribution model, studios can see what each school truly costs after direct expenses, staffing, and workflow time—often revealing accounts that quietly drain resources. You'll hear candid stories of running P&Ls on every account, cutting unprofitable schools, and seeing margins and morale rise. We also cover flexible senior booking paths for districts that won't sPhoto Imaging CONNECTThe Photo Imaging CONNECT conference, March 1-2, 2026, at the RIO Hotel and Resort in Las Vegas, NMaking Good: Small Business Marketing PodcastMaking Good helps you do better marketing so you can make a bigger impact.

Send us a textWhat if your training plan wasn't just about miles, but the mindset that keeps you steady when life tilts? Jamee joins us to share how running became the backbone of nine years of sobriety, a pressure valve for anxiety, and the bridge back to endurance after three kids. From a fearless first half marathon run too fast and unfueled to a deliberate, coached build for Chicago, her story shows how structure, community, and small daily choices add up to big change.We dig into the nuts and bolts of marathon prep: rebuilding a base after pregnancies, time-boxing workouts around a full-time job, and discovering that speed work can coexist with long, easy days that train patience. Jamee breaks down the fueling strategy that saved her late in the race—timed gels, simple carbs, and a no-drama approach that kept her head clear. She also talks candidly about the mental side: missing family at mile 19, walking the inclines to reset heart rate, and the roar of Chicago's neighborhoods that makes headphones optional.Beyond the splits, there's the power of a run crew. Saturday long runs turned into a lifeline, replacing late nights with early laughs, stories, and accountability. We talk post-race blues, processing grief, and the simple truth that movement is medicine. Jamee's eyeing a sprint tri and a 70.3, weighing another Chicago start with the wisdom of experience, and proving that goals can be both a compass and a comfort. If you're chasing your first 5K, rebuilding after a break, or aiming for a marathon PR, you'll find practical, compassionate guidance here—plus a reminder that the best plan is the one you can live with.If this conversation sparked something, follow the show, leave a review, and share it with a friend who needs a nudge.

Send us a textAre your consultancy's processes holding back your growth potential? In this revealing episode of the Consulting Growth Podcast, we dive deep into how Professional Service Automation (PSA) software can transform small and medium-sized consultancies.Guest Behram Khan, co-founder of Avaza PSA software, shares how the right systems can help consultancies escape the "spreadsheet trap" that drains productivity and profits. Born from his own frustrations as a project manager, Khan explains how fragmented processes using separate tools for tasks, communication, time tracking, and invoicing create costly inefficiencies that compound as businesses grow.The benefits of implementing a PSA system are substantial and measurable. Most consultancies see a 5-10% improvement in billable resource utilization – equivalent to gaining an extra team member without additional salary costs. Status meetings become more focused, email threads more manageable, and project profitability more visible. Perhaps most critically for growing firms, PSA systems significantly improve cash flow through streamlined invoicing and payment processes.Khan makes a compelling case for early PSA adoption: "Adopting a PSA tool should be part of the initial business setup." Starting with basic functionality and expanding as you grow establishes solid processes before bad habits form. The ideal solution balances ease of use with sufficient flexibility to adapt to your specific workflows.Beyond technology, Khan offers valuable advice for consultancy growth: invest time researching how to reach prospective clients, maintain consistent marketing messaging with clear calls to action, keep existing customers happy through clear communication, and automate repetitive activities wherever possible. Most importantly, ensure your business can function smoothly even without you present – a key indicator of a truly valuable consultancy.Ready to transform your consultancy operations? Listen now to discover how the right systems can unlock your firm's full potential and position you for sustainable, profitable growth.Prof. Joe O'Mahoney helps boutique consultancies scale and exit.

Imagine this: a copywriter who knows your voice, a strategist who doesn't need a Zoom link, a therapist who won't side-eye your fourth cup of coffee, and a hype girl who's ready 24/7. That's what ChatGPT has been for me. And I get it… maybe “AI” makes your eyes glaze over or your gut clench. But this episode? It's different. It's not about tech for tech's sake. It's about prompts that gave me peace, clarity, confidence… and yes, even a few hours of my life back! In this episode, you'll hear how I used AI to: Finally nail a meal plan that didn't make me hate grocery shopping. Write emails that said what I meant, without sounding like I was apologizing for existing. Build content, clarify launches, and even realign with my goals when things felt… fuzzy.
