What if your guests aren't buying what's on the menu, they're buying who you are?That's the philosophy guiding today's guest, the CEO of Philz Coffee and the man behind some of the most successful turnarounds in hospitality. After scaling Wingstop and reviving Chuck E. Cheese, Mahesh didn't come to Philz for the margins, he came for the mission.In this conversation, Mahesh breaks down why culture is the only sustainable advantage, how he trimmed 87 priorities down to five that actually mattered, and the high-stakes leadership moves required to reignite passion from the top down. We also unpack the loyalty trap most brands fall into, and how Philz is turning casual customers into community superfans.This isn't just about fixing broken brands. It's about leading with clarity, choosing people over product, and building a coffee shop that everyone has to visit and no one wants to leave.To learn more about Philz Coffee and their community-driven mission, visit philzcoffee.com._________________________________________________________Today's episode was brought to you by Square.

#914 Everything has changed. That's my answer to the question of how the world of online business is today versus how it was when I started. Of course, that was in 2008. But my answer is actually the same if I were to compare right now to this time last year. That's why we have a big change coming at SPI! Listen in on today's session because I need to address the "passive income" elephant in the room. Don't get me wrong, not trading your time for money is still a valid goal to shoot for in business. That said, certain terms associated with this concept have developed a scammy connotation. So tune in to hear how this is all contributing to my shift in a new direction! The big change is right around the corner, so join me to hear about my renewed focus on helping you build a business around your superfans!

Great customer experience doesn't lose customers to competitors—it loses them to apathy. And it creates superfans when ownership of the experience is clear. In this episode of The Modern Customer, customer experience speaker and author Brittany Hodak explains what actually turns customers into superfans—and why tools, automation, and AI alone aren't enough. Drawing on her work with organizations like American Express, Benihana, and Keller Williams, she shows why ownership, accountability, and human judgment drive lasting loyalty.

#912 Perfection is out. Authenticity is in. As the world is flooded with polished content and AI noise, this is becoming increasingly true every day. That's why the more you edit yourself, the more you'll blend in. It's also why, if you show your real self, you'll stand out and attract a community of superfans! So how do you fight back against the slop and build a personal brand? In this episode, I look at the countermovement emerging in response to our artificial modern landscape. In fact, my inspiration for this episode comes from Medieval Mindset on YouTube labeling this as the Second Renaissance. I love that idea because it means that now is the best time to show up and lead the charge. You'd do exactly that by participating in something like my 30-day video challenge. So tune in because, when you don't overproduce, reality seeps in and you attract the right people!

En 2025, el pop-up deja de ser una “anécdota” y se convierte en una herramienta real para destacar en un mercado saturado: no vende solo un single, crea relato (“yo estuve allí”). El episodio explica las 4 claves del formato: cercanía, sorpresa, tiempo justo y exclusividad/FOMO, además de sus límites (permisos, seguridad, ruido y convivencia con la ciudad).Se comparan ventajas frente a la campaña clásica (menos impactos, más “momento-evento” y mejor ángulo para prensa) y se proponen métricas para medirlo en 7–14 días (guardados, expansión geográfica, UGC vs. contenido oficial, menciones en medios y cambios en escucha). Con casos como Lorde, The All-American Rejects y el playbook de DJs, se concluye con lo clave: el pop-up solo cambia carrera si se trabaja el post (captura de datos, curación de clips, continuidad y comunidad) para convertir el pico en relación.

What if your show had a format designed only for your super fans? Today, we look at what a private podcast actually is and how it works behind the scenes. We're joined by trusted podcasting expert Cliff Ravenscraft, who helps us understand the mechanics: how access is controlled, how episodes are delivered, and why a private feed functions differently from a public show. Cliff explains how creators use private podcasts for focused communication, training, or more personal updates, and why clarity on purpose matters more than fancy tools.

#902 I just earned $40,000 in four days selling t-shirts! That's bananas, but these are the kinds of things you can expect to happen if you focus on building true superfans. From day one, you can follow my system and start generating income from your passion. From ad revenue and affiliate marketing at the casual level to VIP experiences and five-figure consulting gigs at the top of the audience growth pyramid, I cover it all in today's session. This is not about chasing vanity numbers and buying fake subscribers, either. None of that stuff matters! The Superfans system is the key to building real connections online in the age of AI. One experience for a top follower can outweigh hundreds of small sales, so tune in for a look at the opportunities available to you right now. I know you haven't even considered some of these methods yet, so don't miss this episode!

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I brought in one of my secret weapons from Inner Circle and Atlas, Jason Friedman. Jason is the guy I think about when I hear “customer experience” and “retention.” I am obsessed with funnels, traffic, and selling online, but Jason walked into our Mastermind in Paradise and basically said, “Cool… but what happens after they say yes?” What followed was one of the clearest frameworks I've ever seen for turning customers into raving recruiters so your revenue grows without buying more clicks. Key Highlights: ◼️Why entrepreneurs stay “addicted to strangers,” and how Jason reframes ROAS as Return On Audience Success so your funnels stop leaking profit. ◼️The theater director who scripted audience reactions on command, and how that principle lets you choreograph customer transformation instead of hoping it happens. ◼️Jason's Kinetic Customer Formula that ties attitude, behavior, momentum, and friction into a system that drives renewals, ascensions, and referrals. ◼️Simple retention moves you can apply immediately, like accelerating time-to-first-value, creating win streaks, and fixing hidden friction points. ◼️How personalization, gamification, and “unreasonable” small touches create emotional connection and make your programs sticky. ◼️Why the future of online business belongs to entrepreneurs who build back-end funnels that turn current customers into their strongest promoters. If you run funnels, sell courses or coaching, or drive any kind of online sales, this episode will help you make more money from the customers you already have while building something that is AI-proof and future-proof. Listen in, take notes, and then start redesigning your customer journey so your experiences compound long after the initial sale! ◼️If you've got a product, offer, service… or idea… I'll show you how to sell it (the RIGHT way) Register for my next event →⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ ◼️Still don't have a funnel?

In this episode of the Unlearn Podcast, I sit down with Cass Pratt, Chief Human Resources Officer at Progyny, to explore how HR is evolving into a design discipline that blends human connection with AI-powered productivity. From building bots to boost employee experience to reshaping how we think about roles in an automated world, Cass shares an honest look at how she's bringing people along on a transformation journey—with curiosity, experimentation, and heart.We discuss her pivotal decision to say yes to opportunities beyond her comfort zone, the strategic shifts she's leading inside a fast-scaling company, and why the future of HR is about enhancing humanity, not replacing it. If you're wondering what leadership looks like when AI meets empathy, this one's for you.Key TakeawaysUnlearning expertise-dependence: Cass shifted from relying on experts to co-creating solutions with AI tools before engaging others.AI as a force for elevation: At Progyny, AI is used to give employees time back, not take roles away—enabling deeper focus on human-centric work.Low-code leadership: Cass, a self-described non-technical leader, built HR bots and reimagined policies through practical AI applications.Scaling culture through consistency: AI chatbots improved response times, standardized answers, and gave insight into employee concerns.Embedding experimentation: Teams are encouraged to ask, "What should I stop doing?"—sparking a culture of reinvention and initiative.Additional InsightsProgyny's “Super Fans” initiative reframes AI gains as an opportunity to deepen customer and employee relationships.Training is done in cohorts to build shared understanding and reduce AI anxiety.Cross-functional collaboration with junior team members—like the intern who built the HR bot—shows how innovation can come from any level.Cass uses AI to simplify and globalize complex frameworks like competency models, improving alignment across teams and geographies.Episode Highlights00:00 – Episode Recap Cassandra Pratt shares how embracing discomfort led her to leap into healthcare, build a transformative HR function, and lead with AI—not to eliminate roles, but to elevate people and amplify their impact.02:37 – Guest Introduction: Cassandra Pratt Barry introduces Cass Pratt, Chief People Officer at Progyny, a fertility and family-building benefits company scaling rapidly with a human-first, tech-empowered culture.04:48 – Saying Yes to Growth Cass reflects on a missed opportunity that taught her the cost of saying no—and set her on a path to jump into unknowns with conviction.08:04 – Startup Lessons and Leadership Growth From 50 to 850 employees, Cass shares what it means to grow with a company and embrace mistakes as part of the journey.11:00 – Diving into AI Without a Tech Background Despite lacking technical skills, Cass threw herself into generative AI—learning by doing and discovering intuitive ways to drive value.13:10 – Unlearning the Expert Reflex Cass rethinks her default of turning to experts first—instead starting with AI to shape stronger ideas and bring others in as collaborators.15:13 – Redesigning Processes, Not Just Tools AI opened up opportunities to rethink workflows from scratch, not just automate existing inefficiencies.20:35 – Making AI Safe and Human Cass shares how transparent messaging, training, and cultural reinforcement helps ease AI anxieties and keep
