Recorded December 18, 2020 (Producer's Note: There's some background noise throughout this episode that we didn't catch until after the recording.  Lo siento con carne!) It's January, so let's plan for summer!   Chris is really, really upset with “Classrooms of the Future” (but not necessarily for the reasons you think) and give them both barrels.  Do you have a Classroom of the Future?  Isn't it just the bee's knees?   Then, the AV SuperFriends recover and share their take on how to get ready for summer projects and Justin again tries to explain the wacky budgeting process at WKU.  Also, Rachel has been getting lots of questions from AV manufacturers about forecasted spending from colleges and universities— budget decreases for some, increases for others, and mysteries for everyone.  Hint: Put all your funding requests into hybrid teaching technologies. 

Clean. Enjoy. :)

  Kevin Siskar and Tim Shisler are at it again, discussing the current news in our world today. Each person brings one topic to the table and they talk about them both. Kevin’s Topic: The Future of American Cities. Kevin starts by discussing how he lived in NYC for a full decade and how he has seen the cost of living has increased significantly, but at the same time, the storefronts are leaving! This is due to the commercial investors also increasing their rent too much where small shops are no longer able to handle the cost. Kevin found a statistic: 50% of all restaurants in NYC are going to close due to COVID 19, currently being 12,000 being closed already. So many people think the city and other big cities are dying, but looking at the next few years, will the economy be able to come back? Tim’s Topic: Working from home, the rise of remote work! Tim talks about how it was hard to transition for him to remote work once COVID-19 forced a lot of our workforce to remote. It is a lot about having a plan and being diligent about time and how you carve it out. Routine is key. There is a fine line between work life and home life, the separation needs to be balanced. Should you be working at 8pm when you have a significant other? When working in an office, the commute is there to help you shift out of work mode, what do you do when you are working from home. This is also the time where it really shines on the people that really care about their work, vs. the people that were just working to have a job. This is a big topic right now, because working from home is definitely not for everyone.

Episode #1084 is another special edition installment, recorded at our Marketing School Live event in LA.  Tune in to hear Neil discuss the future of digital marketing and what you can do to stay on top. TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES: [00:54] Today’s Topic: The Future of Digital Marketing According to Neil Patel [01:30] When you work with companies of all sizes, you notice trends and patterns in the industry. [02:40] I see every single side of marketing. [03:20] There are at least a billion blogs on the Internet. [03:30] Do we honestly need this many blogs? [04:15] All companies are leveraging digital marketing. [06:22] We are all worried about another recession. [06:32] However, during the last recession, Google’s revenue went up. [07:32] Marketing is going omni-channel. [07:47] Google has the majority of the revenue, with Facebook a close second. [10:06] In general, social shares are declining. [10:25] Google doesn’t penalize for duplicate content. [12:25] If you don’t keep updating your content, you won’t maintain your rankings. [14:11] Conversion rate optimization is not sexy, but it’s effective. [14:35] It’s the smallest investment with the biggest ROI. [17:09] There are so many tools to use to compare your competitors stats with your own. [19:45] Growing traffic used to be a manual process, but can easily be automated using Clickflow. [24:05] Uber and Dropbox came in with so much hype, but when they went public, their stocks didn’t do as well. [24:40] For visibility and omni-channel marketing, always use the Rule of Seven. [27:01] Email and push notifications are still a great way to market. [30:00] The more you focus on conversions, the better off you will be. [30:14] Conventional CRO tactics won’t work anymore. [32:55] Personalized messaging is a great tactic. [33:12] Chat is responsible for 28% of Neil’s sales. [36:15] Anything you do in marketing and business should be researched and tested.

Have you ever wondered why you know why you wanted?

News: Elon Musk is prepping for Mars SpaceX announced that they are building the first Mars, or interplanetary ship, and they think we'll be able to do short trips and flights by early 2019 NEXT YEAR!! Their original plan was to send a cargo ship to Mars in 2022, thus making these test flights. SpaceX's BFR rocket system is expected to travel to other planets, and be fully reusable AND a flight will cost less than the initial Falcon 1 flights, which Musk estimated in the $5 to $6 million range. He hopes if BFR launches, others will believe Mars travel is possible, and follow suit. Musk noted that as soon as all of the necessities for life are installed on Mars "then really the explosion of entrepreneurial opportunity [will begin], because Mars will need everything from iron foundries to pizza joints.”   NASA is sending another lander to Mars!   InSight, (Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport), is a Mars lander designed to measure the inside of Mars: its crust, mantle, and core. NASA will be launching InSight from Vandenberg Air Force Base on May 5th as the first planetary mission launched from the West Coast!   Today’s Topic: The Future of Humans on Mars   Mars 2020 Rover   Launch: July/August 2020 Landing: February 2021 Mission Duration: At least 1 Mars Year (687 Earth Days)   4 Science Goals Determine whether life ever arose on Mars Characterize the Climate of Mars Characterize the Geology of Mars Prepare for Human Exploration   To support these goals, Mars 2020 has 4 Science Objectives Determine Habitable Environments Seek signs and biosignatures of past life Collect rock and Soil samples and store them on MArs Test Oxygen Production from the Martian atmosphere The atmosphere is 96% Carbon Dioxide. Mars 2020 will test technology (MOXIE- Mars Oxygen ISRU Experimaent) to extract the oxygen for humans to breathe. Potential Landing Sites Gusev Crater (goo-sev) Jezero Crater Northeast Syrtis (seer-tis)   NASA’s Journey to Mars   NASA is on a journey to Mars with a goal to humans there by 2030s. We’ve actually already started this process with satellites, rovers, private companies, international cooperation and Mars 2020. NASA has classified this journey into 3 thresholds: Earth Reliant Proving Ground Earth Independant   Earth Reliant ISS operation through 2024 Commercial development of Low Earth Orbit Development of deep space systems, life support, and human health ISS, Orion… Proving Ground (Cislunar space) Regular crewed missions and spacewalks in cislunar space ISS is hours away from home, cislunar space is days, Mars is months Verify deep space habitation The first of these missions will launch NASA's powerful new rocket, the Space Launch System (SLS). The mission will carry the Orion spacecraft (without astronauts) thousands of miles beyond the moon during an approximately three week mission. Then, astronauts will climb into Orion for a similar mission, traveling farther than humans have ever traveled before. Also in the 2020s, we'll send astronauts on a yearlong mission into this deep space proving ground, verifying habitation and testing our readiness for Mars.   Earth Independant Demonstrate Entry, Descent, landing and ISRU Conduct robotic round trip with sample return in late 2020s Send humans to orbit Mars in the early 2030s   How has Trump changed any of this? On Dec. 11, Trump signed Space Policy Directive 1, a document that shifts U.S. policy, directing NASA to land astronauts on the moon before sending them on to the Red Planet. "This time, we will not only plant our flag and leave our footprint, we will establish a foundation for an eventual mission to Mars," Trump said at the event. President Trump said Thursday that he wanted to "top" President John F. Kennedy's ambitions to send a man to the moon by pursuing a trip to Mars. "We're looking at Mars, by the way," Trump said. "Trying to top [Kennedy]. We're going to get there. It's moving along pretty good. A lot of things have happened ... having to do with that subject. Way ahead of schedule."   So… in his 2019 budget request The Lunar Orbital Platform-Gateway (LOP-G) is a concept for a crew-tended cislunar space station led by: ESA, NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA and CSA. Formerly known as the Deep Space Gateway, the station was renamed in NASA's proposal for the 2019 United States federal budget. The station would be used as a staging point for the proposed Deep Space Transport, which is a concept of a reusable vehicle that uses electric and chemical propulsion and would be specifically designed for crewed missions to destinations such as Mars. This is the new Proving Ground

Topic:The Future of Cycling as a Mode of Transportation In This Episode:[01:59] Guest Carlton Reid is introduced. [02:49] Carlton explains the history of the bike boom. [07:24] Carlton tells why there was a bike boom in the early ’70s. [09:18] Carlton talks about cycling as a mode of transportation, not just for recreation. [10:32] Carlton informs us of the degree to which bicycling is popular in the U.S. [13:07] Carlton addresses the percentage of modal sharing in the Netherlands compared to the U.S. [14:34] Carlton discusses having the bicycle infrastructure be more favored than the auto infrastructure. [19:58] Carlton mentions his support for cycleways. [22:05] Carlton gives his thoughts on the unpopularity of cycling among women, ethnic minorities, and the urban poor. [24:21] Carlton addresses Mike’s comment about the trend that may reverse the number of cars on the road and individual car ownership. [27:20] Carlton answers the question, what is the future of biking? Guest and Organization: Carlton Reid is executive editor of BikeBiz magazine and is writing a book about the recent history of roads. He is author of Roads Were Not Built For Cars and Bike Boom: The Unexpected Resurgence of Cycling. He also writes adventure travel articles for publications such as National Geographic Traveller and The Guardian – his forte is cycle touring. Founder and rider-manager of the first ever British mountain bike team – which competed in the World Championships in France in 1987 –Reid was inducted into the MBUK Mountain Bike Hall of Fame in 2008, one of the first 20 inductees. He has ridden solo in the Sahara and Kalahari deserts and, from his mountain bike in 1994, he researched the first guidebook to Lebanon since the end of that country’s civil war.
