It's fancy, it's fast, it's fun – it's the BMW iX M60 and this all-electric ride left Host of GreenCars, The Podcast, Trish Glose wanting a bit more. Trish was familiar with BMWs, only in the way that her parents drove them and occasionally, they handed over the keys to her. Trish appreciates the consistency in design and technology that carries throughout different BMW models. The iX is no different. Trish wanted a bit more. She wanted more time with the BMW iX M60, to explore all that it can do. Some more experience behind the wheel, and a bit more education to discover all the technology. Trish's short time only scratched the surface of an amazing experience with this Ultimate Driving Machine. Come along with Trish as she shows us the ins and outs of this futuristic fancy EV.Subscribe to our channel @greencarshq and learn more about greener driving options by visiting https://www.greencars.comHave Questions?

The Australian market has lagged on electric vehicles. But that's changing fast says BMW's top marketer Alex McLean, with EV sales this year making up 10 per cent of the total market after notching 300 per cent YoY growth. Next year BMW will have 14 EV variants in Australia – and the market shake-up means the Ultimate Driving Machine must flip its marketing strategy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Latest edition of the @BeardedCarCast with @mikepacheco81 and @friedman_dave. This edition was recorded on I-85 North headed to Charlotte following Mike and Dave's exciting day in the Upstate.
1. Your Podcast drives home your C&C Idea Your Clear & Compelling Idea is the living, beating heart of your business. It's the idea that creates demand for your coaching by communicating your value and who benefits the most from that value. Take BMW for example. Their Clear & Compelling Idea is the Ultimate Driving Machine. That Idea sets that brand apart AND speaks deeply to car buyers who care about the driving experience. That Idea also repels those who care more about other things, like Tesla drivers for example. Your Clear & Compelling Idea sets your coaching apart from other coaches and attracts the right people while repelling everyone else. In a perfect world, even the title and tagline of your podcast communicates your Clear & Compelling Idea, so people are exposed to that idea just by coming across your podcast. Beyond that, you can use the guests you feature, the solo episodes you record and the success stories you share, all together in a strategic push to communicate your Clear & Compelling Idea. All the content revolves around that one idea and drives it home from a thousand different angles. It's the way you look at the world, and no form of marketing allows people to spend as much time with you as podcasting, so it's a perfect place to communicate more information and drive home one idea from a variety of different angles. 2. Podcasting gives you complete control of your message Unlike being a guest, or doing speaking engagements or other forms of marketing, you are in complete control of every element of your podcast. There's no one standing between you and your audience. Want to deliver some hard truths or unpopular opinions? Your podcast is the perfect place, because you can share your reasoning behind it and not get muzzled or shouted down by people who disagree. Want to build credibility and authority? Bring on influential experts in your space and focus on topics that reinforce your message. Dana Malstaff's Boss Mom podcast is a great example, where she brings on people like Amy Porterfield to share how Amy's program fits into the Boss Mom approach. Want to build anticipation for the book you're launching? Record solo episodes where you read excerpts or entire chapters, like Mark Divine is doing on the Unbeatable Mind podcast. Whatever message you want to deliver to your audience at any given time, your podcast gives you complete control to put a message in front of your audience based on the needs of your business at the time. 3. Podcasting is Scalable (Unlike Your Sales Skills) Relying on your sales skills to grow your coaching business keeps you trapped trading time for dollars. You can only talk to so many people one-on-one. Could you close more sales if you get more people on the phone? Of course. But how many sales calls do you want to do? Can you double that number and still take all the calls yourself? As any of my clients can tell you, sales calls are great in the first couple of years, and once you've done enough, they all start to blend together and you get tired of them. Same thing applies to speaking gigs. Could you get more clients by doing more speaking gigs? Of course. But can you double the number of speaking gigs you do in a year? Most of my clients can't. Certainly not without putting their family life at major risk. Yet your podcast can double in listeners, and double again, and again, without zero additional time from you. So of course, leverage your skills. But why not put more time into your podcast where you can double your audience without taking up any more of your time? 4. Podcasting creates converts When the right people hear a Clear & Compelling Idea, leading to a unique Point of View, delivered on a regular basis, from different angles and topics, a certain percentage of them come to see the world in a completely different way. They...
The first thing you need to know about the 2021 BMW M440i xDrive Coupe is that it delivers true Ultimate Driving Machine fun. Plus, it's a true two-door coupe, none of that four-door coupe BS. And yes, it has the controversial schnoz, but even if you don't like it, remember, it's not seen from the driver's seat. And really, don't judge until you see it in person. Tom Voelk checks out a well-equipped M440i that puts a grin on his face as wide as the polarizing twin kidney grille.
Martin is a legend. How many people craft phrases that become part of everyday language like “The Ultimate Driving Machine," "The Antidote For Civilization,” and “The Tightest Ship In The Shipping Business”? He comes from a different time in advertising and communication, as he describes in our conversation.I met him nearly twenty years ago. He was considering investing in the company I cofounded, Submedia, based on the medium I invented. He didn't invest, but he came to my first solo gallery show in Manhattan. We lost touch.Then I saw him speak recently. I confess a slight disposition to expect corporate writers not to engage in depth, which I recognize as a flaw in myself. He spoke about creativity, what it can be, how much we've lost it today, and the consequences of losing it. He spoke with a love of an America in hibernation now, what caused it to sleep, and how to bring it back.We talk about creativity, culture, passion, and more.Interview in Spirit Flesh magazineInsights from Leaders: A Big Idea, by Martin PurisInsights from Leaders: My Definition of a Big Idea, by Martin Puris See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Volkswagen and BMW were bidding for Rolls-Royce and Bentley. VW had just "won" bought Rolls-Royce and Bentley from Vickers for $780m....oops!... all but the Flying Lady and Rolls-Royce Grille trademarks! BMW came in behind and bought those trademarks from R-R Aero (Jet engines) for $66m. So VW owned the name and BMW supplied engines....BMW had yet to be able to use the name...how did Rolls-Royce build an order bank of new Phantoms for production? George Walish, General Manager of R-R North America tells the shocking story! (includes secret warehouses and mock up cars) Also in this episode, George's interest in cars and the business through a neighbor in Penn who managed a Cadillac dealership, his (doing) time at Chrysler, his step off the path with IBM- George as a senior executive at BMW on the intro of Infiniti and Lexus into the USA and the underestimation of them, the creation of the ad tagline THE ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE, the (non) brand awareness of BMW In USA, his getting tapped to head up Rolls-Royce...

The all-electric BMW iX3 is not coming to the U.S. But the X3 xDrive30e is in showrooms now and it offers electrified driving. That’s because the 30e is a plug-in hybrid. Does the efficiency dull the Ultimate Driving Machine dynamics? How far does it go on a charge? Is the 30e prohibitively expensive? Tom Voelk has those answers and more and he checks out a fully optioned M Sport model.

Focus, Purpose & Leadership I decided to create this podcast because in my 40 year career in the advertising, communications and brand strategy worlds, I've come to learn about the fundamental importance of clarity and purpose. Or in my terms, the value of having a 'single organising principle, a principle that a business would live or die by that is single minded and focused and helpful in consistent decision making. In this series I'll be chatting to leaders who have put this into practice whilst developing their own successful businesses. Robert Bean Every business wants an elevator pitch. Sadly few have a truly compelling one. One that’s as motivating internally as it is meaningful externally. Businesses who own such a statement are better aligned, more focussed, more efficient and, ultimately, more profitable. Having worked with BMW and ‘The Ultimate Driving Machine’, Honda and ‘The Power of Dreams’, BT and ‘It’s Good to Talk’, Homebase and ‘Make a House a Home’ and many others, it’s clear to see the focus these statements have provided their owners. Robert is a strategic business consultancy that helps CEOs and Boards define and express their business’ most powerful proposition. In a single sentence. It’s called your ‘Single Organising Principle.’ Once articulated, we help bring it to life across the organisation’s culture, its products & services and reputation.

In this episode I talk to Shamil Thakrar, founder and CEO of the much-loved restaurant Dishoom. In it, we explore the origins of the idea, get taken on a whistle-stop tour of Bombay and discuss how they’ve turned the concept of breaking down barriers into their higher purpose. We sat in armchairs, beers in hand, under a picture of his father at the home of dishoom, the appropriately named Babu House on Shoreditch High Street.

Welcome to the first episode of the the Focus, Purpose & Leadership podcast by Robert Bean. In this episode I talk to Adrian Hosford, previous director of CSR for BT. In it, we discuss the very basis of human communications, the genesis of the 'It's Good To Talk' campaign and how that reshaped a major corporate brand. As you will hear, his passion for the subject remains undimmed despite years passing and technology now leading us to communicate in so many different ways.

UP FOR DISCUSSION:- Costco the Auto Giant: Guess the middle man can be helpful after all- BMW’s Tagline: What happened to “Ultimate Driving Machine”—too steampunk?- GM’s Bryan Nesbitt: Wuling and Baojun… and now BuickSPECIAL GUEST: Al Oppenheiser, Chief Engineer, Chevrolet CamaroAll that and much more with John McElroy, Autoline.tv; Gary Vasilash, Automotive Design and Production; Chris Paukert, Freelance Auto Journalist; Jim McCraw, Freelance Auto Journalist.
Cadillac calls itself “The New Standard of the World” while BMW claims to be “The Ultimate Driving Machine.” That’s all marketing. When it comes down to building the vehicles that can live up to the hype, these top dogs turn to their engineers. This week’s guest, David Leone, the Chief Engineer for Cadillac, has the not-insignificant task of meeting and exceeding the “Standard.” We’ll be asking him how Cadillac plans to knock BMW off the top perch. As usual, you can expect us to take a dive into the biggest news of the week as well. It looks like Mark Fields may just be the executive to succeed Alan Mulally at Ford, and John has some impressions of the powerful Porsche 911 he’s been testing. Joining John McElroy in studio is his After Hours co-host Peter De Lorenzo, the Autoextremist, and Gary Vasilash of Automotive Design and Production!
