Podcasts about Value proposition

Nick presents founders and business owners with a powerful diagnostic tool—the Business Model Diagnosis—to address stalled growth, which is often mistakenly attributed to poor marketing or sales. He breaks down the five core components of any successful business model—Customer Segments, Value Proposition, Revenue Model, Delivery Mechanism, and Operational Excellence—and presents 15 key questions designed to evaluate and optimise the entire business engine KEY TAKEAWAYS Stalled growth is often a symptom of a broken business model (the core engine of the business) and not just a marketing or sales problem, requiring a shift in perspective to look at the business from a higher, 30,000-foot perspective. The business model is comprised of five core, interrelated components: Customer Segments, Value Proposition, Revenue Model, Delivery Mechanism, and Operational Excellence. A powerful strategy is to trim product lines and audiences and "cut to your most profitable customer" to reduce complexity and focus resources on what is driving the most valuable growth. Founders can unlock rapid growth by re-engineering the revenue model, which includes adding recurring revenue, introducing tiered pricing, or offering performance-based upsells to increase order value and customer lifetime value. BEST MOMENTS "If growth is stalled, it's probably not your sales team, it's probably not your marketing funnel either. The truth, most of the time from my experience, is your business model. So let's fix that today." "You don't need perfect scores, but if you've got weak points across, as I said, two to three of these areas, that's likely the root cause of your growth issues for now." "When your business model is right, everything else gets easier. When it's wrong, nothing works. So you've got to fix the business model first."

Larry Allen Morgan, CFM, SFP, FMP is Senior Facilities Manager and Environmental Management System SME at SAP where he is focused on results driven leadership within the corporate & commercial real estate facilities management industry. Mike Petrusky asks Larry why he believes that FM is “not what we do, but why and how we deliver the value” and they explore historical industry shifts, post-COVID impacts, and transformation of the built environment. Larry says that FM professionals must move beyond surface-level discussions and align with the broader strategic goals of the organization, focused on having a horizontal impact, not a vertical one, to better align with cross-functional needs. Traditional financial metrics are necessary but insufficient, so facility managers need to measure the success of their efforts in terms of impactful outcomes and employee experience. Mike and Larry agree that professionals must continuously upskill and expand their networks to stay relevant, so they recommend IFMA connections and offer the practical advice and inspiration you need to be a Workplace Innovator in your organization!

Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins us to review why the value proposition in the exploration alpha plays are based around news catalysts and milestones, more so that higher metals prices.  For this very reason, he's less interested in the sector sentiment turns we've seen in the valuations of producers and advanced developers in the higher underlying metals price environment, and more animated by the fundamental prospectivity of the explorers that haven't moved up as much yet, but have the biggest potential for gains if they deliver on their thesis and make a discovery and define a significant future economic deposit.   Erik discusses some of the nuances around valuing the potential upside in gold and copper exploration companies, that have compelling drill targets, large strategic shareholders that have already vetting the projects and management teams, are in the right jurisdictions, and that have the potential for rapid upside moves if they make compelling discoveries while expanding resources.     >> The companies we discussed in the interview are:   Red Canyon Resources Ltd.

There's something happening in the financial coaching world that's got a lot of us feeling uneasy. Maybe you've heard the whispers, or maybe you've been losing sleep over it yourself. AI is coming for our jobs, they say. Clients can just ask ChatGPT for financial advice now. Why would they need us?I've been watching this conversation unfold in coaching groups and on Reddit, and I've got to tell you—the fear is real, but it's also missing the point entirely. Because here's what I've learned from working with coaches who are already experimenting with AI, and from my own experience using these tools: the question isn't whether AI will replace us. It's how we're going to use it to become even better at what we already do.Think about the last time a client came to you. Did they need someone to crunch numbers? Or did they need someone who could see the hesitation in their voice when they talked about starting that business? Someone who noticed their body language shift when debt came up? Someone who understood that their financial decisions weren't really about money at all, but about the stories they've been telling themselves for years?That's the thing about transformation. It's messy in a way that AI simply can't navigate. And transformation is what we're really in the business of, isn't it?I've had clients try AI tools for financial guidance, only to come back because they missed something they couldn't quite name. They missed the relationship. They missed being truly seen and understood. And they missed having someone who cared about their success in a way that went beyond just giving them the right answer.And while AI can't replace what we do, it can absolutely make us better at doing it. I've been experimenting with ways to use AI as my behind-the-scenes assistant, handling some administrative stuff that drains my energy so I can focus on the human work that only I can do. And the results have been pretty remarkable.This week, I'm sharing more about this timely topic and why AI isn't going to replace you. Instead, I want you to understand exactly what makes you irreplaceable so you can use technology to lean into those strengths even more.Links & Resources:Ultimate Growth GuideJoin the Facebook groupKey Takeaways:AI can analyze numbers, but it can't feel the pit in your stomach from buyer's remorse or recognize the fear behind someone's excitement about starting a business. THIS is what makes you irreplaceable.Use AI to handle the mechanical tasks so you can spend more time on the meaningful work that transforms lives.What is rare becomes priceless. As technology advances, human connection becomes increasingly valuable, not less.Your clients need more than information. They need someone who notices their body language when discussing money topics and hears the hesitation in their voice.Pick one repetitive task that doesn't require your unique expertise and experiment with AI handling it this week.Be upfront with clients about how you use AI in your business. This builds trust and shows them where technology ends and your human expertise begins.Double down on your humanity. The coaches thriving with AI aren't replacing their human touch. Rather, they're using technology to create more space for deeper, more personal client interactions.

Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins us to review the value proposition that has his attention in the 3 gold exploration companies, that have compelling drill targets, large strategic shareholders, and the potential for rapid upside moves if they make more compelling discoveries while expanding resources.     >> The companies we discussed in the interview are:   Headwater Gold Inc. (CSE: HWG, OTCQB: HWAUF) announced July 22nd that it has signed a non-binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with a subsidiary of OceanaGold Corporation (TSX: OGC, OTCQX: OCANF). The parties propose to enter into a definitive agreement within 90 days for OceanaGold to acquire an option to earn up to a 75% interest in Headwater's TJ, Jake Creek and Hot Creek projects in Nevada through staged exploration expenditures totalling up to US$65,000,000 and the completion of Pre-Feasibility Studies.   Additionally, Headwater Gold announced on July 24th that drill permitting has advanced through the formal public scoping phase on Headwater's Lodestar project, located in western Nevada. Project scoping marks a significant step toward securing final drilling approval following the submission of a Plan of Operations to undertake a proposed 3,500-metre drill program. The Lodestar project is being explored in partnership with Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM, TSX: NGT, ASX: NEM) through an earn-in agreement announced on May 9, 2023.   Altamira Gold Corp. (TSXV: ALTA) (FSE: T6UP) (OTCID: EQTRF) – On July 17th announced the mobilization of a diamond drill rig to the Cajueiro gold Project, in Brazil. Drilling will initially focus on testing depth and lateral extensions to the recently defined maiden mineral resource at Maria Bonita, followed by the drill testing of several recently identified porphyry targets within the Cajueiro district.   The company is cashed up for this exploration program after having raised $5.28 Million in a non-brokered Private Placement announced on July 2nd.   Cabral Gold Inc. (TSXV: CBR) (OTCQB: CBGZF) announced today the results of an updated Prefeasibility Study ("Updated PFS") on the development of near-surface gold-in-oxide material at the Cuiú Cuiú gold district in Brazil.   (we had recorded this interview yesterday and were unaware that this news would drop literally the next day, but this PFS shows the value proposition Erik outlined in the plan to develop and mine the saprolite for gold and earlier on cash flows from production to feed the exploration).   The Updated PFS, led by Ausenco do Brasil Engenharia Ltda. ("Ausenco"), resulted in significant improvements to the amount of gold produced, mine life, Net Present Value and Internal Rate of Return. These results confirm the Cuiú Cuiú gold-in-oxide starter project provides a high return and a low capital entry point to mine gold, with production possible within 12 months from an investment decision.     * In full disclosure, some companies mentioned by Erik in this interview, are positions held in his personal portfolio, and also may be site sponsors of The Hedgeless Horseman website at the time of this recording.   Click here to follow Erik's analysis over at The Hedgeless Horseman website

Most value propositions stink. They're boring, generic, feature-heavy garbage that make buyers' eyes glaze over. And the worst part? Most salespeople don't even realize their value proposition messaging is hurting them. On this week's Sales Gravy Podcast, Lisa Dennis breaks down her process for building value propositions that actually work—the kind that grab buyers by the heart and don't let go. But before we get to the solution, let's talk about why most value propositions fail miserably. Reason #1: You're Talking About Yourself, Not Them Here's the fundamental problem with 90% of value propositions: They're all about you. “We're the industry leader with cutting-edge technology and award-winning customer service that delivers best-in-class solutions…” Blah, blah, blah.  Do you hear that sound? That's the sound of your prospect mentally checking out. Here's a hard truth about human nature: Nobody cares about you. They care about themselves. Every buyer wants to talk about their problems, their challenges, their goals, and their pain points. When you launch into your pitch about incredible features and market-leading capabilities, your buyer is silently thinking, “What does this mean for me?” And if you don't answer that question immediately, you've lost them. Your value proposition isn't a corporate brochure. It's not a marketing slick. It's the value-bridge between what you do and what they need.  If it's a monologue about you, your company, and your product features you've lost the game before kickoff. What to do instead: Make your value proposition a laser-focused spotlight on them. Start with their problem, not your solution. Lead with their pain, not your product. Reason #2: You're Using Generic, Meaningless Buzzwords Most value propositions include phrases like “industry leader,” “best-in-class,” “cutting-edge,” or “world-class customer service.” “We're a one-stop shop with purpose-built solutions that increase efficiency and decrease costs.” Really? And I suppose your competitors specialize in decreasing efficiency and increasing costs? These phrases and buzzwords make you sound exactly like every other salesperson who's ever walked through your prospect's door: boring.  Here's the brutal truth: If your competitor could copy and paste your value proposition and use it for their company, it's not a value proposition—it's forgettable noise. What to do instead: Get specific. Use numbers. Use their language, not yours. Instead of “increase efficiency,” say “reduce your monthly reporting time from 40 hours to 4 hours.” Instead of “industry leader,” show them exactly how you're different and why that difference matters to them. Reason #3: You Haven't Done Your Homework Most salespeople build their value propositions standing in their own shoes rather than those of their buyers. If you don't know what keeps your prospects awake at 3 AM, if you don't understand their specific challenges, and if you haven't talked to real customers about why they bought from you (or didn't), then your value proposition is built on sand. Guesswork rather than research. What to do instead: Talk to three groups of people and gain insight through their lens. Your Lovers: These are your raving fans. What do they say about you when you're not in the room? What specific problem did you solve that made them heroes in their organization? Your Likers: These are satisfied customers who aren't writing love letters about you. What almost made them choose your competitor? What reservations did they have? Your Haters: These are the tough conversations. The prospects who chose someone else or the customers who fired you. Why? What did they feel you were missing? This insight helps you shape your messaging so that it connects with the buying motivators of potential customers.
