Filmmaker and tech founder Drew Schettler shares how he went from a strictly ministerial college path and church media work to running a production company and building Atlas, a modern all‑in‑one workspace for filmmakers. He talks about learning business the hard way as a creative, navigating burnout and feast‑or‑famine freelance cycles, and then spending seven months using AI and no‑code tools to ship a real SaaS product for his own industry. On this episode we talk about:   Growing up in a ministry “bubble” and how Drew slowly leaned into photography and filmmaking   Building a freelance video business serving churches, nonprofits, and commercial clients   Discovering AI/no‑code app tools and deciding to build Atlas for filmmakers   Product–market fit, MVPs, and iterating based on user feedback instead of over‑polishing   Why creators need to think like entrepreneurs and how to escape the freelance hamster wheel Top 3 Takeaways 1.  Creatives who want to go full‑time have to think in systems, margins, and client outcomes—not just in terms of making beautiful work.2.  You do not need a massive dev team to validate a software idea; a scrappy, AI‑assisted MVP is enough to start selling and get real feedback.3.  The most sustainable path is often using your high‑ticket services as a cash‑flow engine while you build scalable products that can eventually overtake client work. Notable Quotes   "You have to lead with how you're solving the client's problem, not just how good your video looks."   "If everyone has the cheat codes with AI, it stops being cheating—it's just who executes better and faster."   "Most creatives are trying to impress other creatives instead of building something that actually moves the needle for a client."

Friction is part of every workplace. It shows up in the meetings that don't need to happen, the unclear steps, and the small barriers that make work harder than it has to be. It's a cost we've come to accept, but it doesn't need to stay that way. When we look more closely, we start to see the real experience of work where people get stuck, where energy drains away, and where better design could help them thrive. In this episode, Dart and Stephanie Denino discuss what friction really means, how language shapes the way we think about work, and why AI is putting new pressure on workflow design.Stephanie Denino is Head of Advisory at FOUNT Global and a Managing Director at TI People. She helps leaders understand friction in workflows and redesign work so people can get things done with less effort.In this episode, Dart and Stephanie discuss:- Why friction is “the tax you pay when work is poorly designed”- How workers describe friction in their day-to-day tasks- Why focusing on workflow changes how leaders see problems- The two types of workflows inside organizations- How language shapes the way leaders talk about work- Why HR is becoming central to workflow design with AI- What friction reveals about customer outcomes and capacity- How process diagrams mask the lived experience of work- How product thinking improves workflow design- And other topics…Stephanie Denino is the Head of Advisory at FOUNT Global and a Managing Director at TI People, where she helps organizations identify and reduce friction in employee workflows using data and design. Before joining TI People, she spent more than a decade at Accenture in experience design and talent transformation roles.

In this week's episode of Open Tech Talks, host Kashif Manzoor takes you through a convenient, real-world guide to building your first AI workflow, even if you are not technical. After last week's conversation (Episode 175) with Rose G. Loops on Ethical AI, Human Safety & AI Identity Protection, this episode returns to the foundations of GenAI adoption for professionals and enterprise teams. It also continues the learning from Episode 173, How GenAI Is Changing Every Career. Most people know how to write a prompt. Very few know how to connect AI to their real work. This episode solves that gap. Kashif breaks down the entire concept of an AI workflow into four simple building blocks: trigger → input → AI processing → action, and shows how ANY professional can build practical, repeatable workflows using ChatGPT, OCI Gen AI, Claude, Gemini, and more. You'll also hear four real enterprise examples from sales, finance, customer support, and legal, across industries. These examples are practical, repeatable, and immediately usable for working professionals, leaders, and teams starting their GenAI adoption journey. What You Will Learn in This Episode By the end of the episode, listeners will be able to: Understand exactly what an AI workflow is (with a simple formula) Identify the four components every workflow needs Choose the right triggers, inputs, and context for reliable AI output Use LLMs for summarization, classification, analysis, forecasting, and writing Turn repetitive tasks into automated workflows using No-Code tools Understand enterprise considerations: privacy, compliance, cost, integration Build a complete workflow using input → AI → output Apply AI to real departments: sales, finance, legal, customer support Start building repeatable AI processes that improve productivity every week Resources:  Starter AI workflow Library

Amir Haramaty, Co-Founder and President of aiOla, joins SlatorPod to talk about how spoken, multilingual data can transform enterprise workflows and unlock real ROI.The Co-Founder introduces himself not as a serial entrepreneur but as a serial problem solver, focused on one core challenge: most enterprise data remains uncaptured, unstructured, and unused.Amir emphasizes that traditional speech tech fails in real-world conditions, where accents, noise, and hyper-specific jargon dominate. He illustrates how he tackles this challenge by building workflow-specific language models that extract only the data relevant to a process.Amir says aiOla converts speech not into text but into structured, schema-ready data, allowing organizations to automate workflows, improve compliance, and identify trends long before humans can. He explains that the company focuses on narrow processes rather than general conversation, enabling precision in niche environments.Amir shares how aiOla routinely cuts multi-hour procedures down to minutes, drives efficiency across frontline roles, and creates previously unavailable datasets that feed enterprise intelligence. He highlights ROI examples from supermarkets, airlines, manufacturing, and automotive industries.Amir explains that after proving aiOla's value, he realized the fastest way to scale was through firms already embedded in enterprise digital transformation. He notes that aiOla now partners with UST, Accenture, Salesforce, and Nvidia, creating a distribution engine capable of replicating wins across thousands of clients. He calls this channel strategy a force multiplier that shortens sales cycles and embeds aiOla inside broader modernization initiatives. Amir adds that these partners not only bring scale but also domain expertise aiOla deliberately chose not to build in-house. Amir outlines future priorities, including product-led growth, speech-based coding, and speech-prompted AI agents. He predicts that agentic systems will rely heavily on high-quality spoken data, making aiOla's role even more central.

In the final installment of our three-part series with manufacturing leader Sivaram Jambunathan, we dive into what may be the most pivotal element of successful workflow learning: measurement. Hosted by Con Gottfredson, this episode unpacks how Siv and his team transformed their manufacturing organization by building a clear, practical, and deeply disciplined measurement strategy—one that protected organizational will, aligned stakeholders, and proved real value every step of the way. Siv shares how his team forecasted impact before implementing a single change, identified the highest-value opportunities, and used the PDCA cycle to stay adaptive when real-world conditions shifted. From reducing time to proficiency, to calculating cost-to-competence, to building cultural habits of learning application and knowledge-sharing, Siv offers an honest, insightful look at what it takes to measure workflow learning in a way that actually matters. If you're responsible for learning, performance, or transformation in any industry, especially one where precision and speed are non-negotiable, this conversation is a must-listen.

As AI reshapes the world of work, Learning and Development faces a defining moment. Will the profession double down on creating faster training or finally step up as a true driver of performance? In this episode of The Learning & Development Podcast, David James is joined by Bob Mosher - Chief Learning Evangelist at APPLY Synergies and one of the world's foremost advocates for workflow learning. Together, they explore why L&D's obsession with “shiny pennies” and new delivery modes risks missing the real opportunity AI presents: to transform how people perform on the job, not just how they learn. Bob shares why the long-standing cycle of “stakeholders ask for training, L&D delivers it” is more dangerous than ever, what it really means to become a performance architect, and how workflow learning lays the foundation for L&D to stay indispensable in an AI-powered world. If you're serious about shifting your team's focus from learning outputs to business outcomes - and using AI to elevate performance where it matters most - this episode is essential listening. Take your L&D to the next level Take advantage of thousands of hours of analysis. Hundreds of conversations with industry innovators and 25+ years of hands-on global L&D leadership. It's all distilled into one framework to help you level up L&D. Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS If L&D keeps focusing on creating training faster rather than addressing performance, they will be left out of the conversation. Embracing technology is essential. But don´t simply do what you are doing now, only faster.  Demonstrate to your organisation that these tools enable you to go beyond training and enhance performance. Courage and leadership are required to break old habits and proactively guide organizations through disruptive change, even when it's uncomfortable. Bob shares how to have those conversations. BEST MOMENTS “We have to move beyond this training, learning deliverable mindset, to performance and productivity.” “Don´t confuse busy with relevance.. .that´s the danger of perceiving our value by the ask, or how many people are at the door.” “We have to be able to be seen as that learning professional, that performance professional and not the L&D department that we all know.” “I´ve been at this, 43 years. I've never seen anything as disruptive as this.” Bob Mosher BioBob Mosher is Chief Learning Evangelist at APPLY Synergies and a pioneering voice in workplace learning with over 30 years of experience helping organisations drive measurable performance. A co-creator of the Five Moments of Need® framework, Bob has spent decades challenging traditional training models and championing workflow learning - an approach that supports employees at the point of need, not just in the classroom. Before founding APPLY Synergies, Bob served as Global Chief Learning Strategist for Microsoft, where he helped redefine how the company enabled performance at scale. Today, he works with global organisations to implement learning strategies that close the gap between learning and doing. Renowned for his candor, practicality, and unwavering focus on business results, Bob continues to shape the conversation about what truly effective learning looks like in the AI era. https://www.linkedin.com/in/bmosher/https://applysynergies.com/ VALUABLE RESOURCES L&D Master Class Series: https://360learning.com/blog/l-and-d-masterclass-home https://twitter.com/davidinlearning https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidjameslinkedin L&D Collective: https://360learning.com/the-l-and-d-collective https://360learning.com/blog This Podcast has been brought to you by Disruptive Media. https://disruptivemedia.co.uk/

Another week, another pile of machining problems we didn't ask for but somehow ended up dealing with anyway.In this episode, the guys dig into Instagram questions and end up covering everything from engraving tools to CAM strategy to finding work for a new shop — all wrapped in the usual chaos of real machine-shop life.They talk about jobs that show up already late, material that's the wrong size (but you don't find out until it's on the machine), tooling that mysteriously disappears right when you need it, and customers who expect parts before they even send the drawing. If you've ever assumed something was correct only to find out you definitely shouldn't have, you'll feel right at home.Drop your best “something went wrong in the shop” story in the comments — we'll read some next episode!Timestamps:01:34 Being Behind on Work16:47 Engraving Techniques20:30 3D Contour Finishing Tips 35:13 Finding Work When You're a New Shop49:27 Improving Shop Efficiency and Workflow 01:20:00 Tip Of The Episode

So many photographers swear their workflow is “the exception” — too many what-ifs, too many touchpoints, too many edge cases to fit inside any kind of universal framework. But here's the truth: every single client journey still moves through the same five phases… and that's exactly why the CRM Blueprint works for every photographer.In this episode, I'm breaking down how weddings, births, branding, newborns, seniors — all of them — share a common structure, and how the Blueprint uses genre-specific templates and a universal framework to make your workflows both personalized and predictable.I'll also walk you through what makes this launch different: the live Map Your Process workshop, the 3-week support sprint, and why this is the closest the DIY course ever gets to done-with-you support. If you've been telling yourself your systems are too complicated to fix… this episode is the proof they aren't.Grab the Birthday Bash Bonuses before they're gone!https://coliejames.com/blueprint

In dieser Soloepisode ziehe ich mein persönliches Fazit aus 25 Stunden Podcastproduktion, 15 Interviews und einem Jahr, in dem meine Masterclass im Zentrum meiner Arbeit stand. Ich erkläre, warum Kampagnen meinen Workflow radikal vereinfacht haben, wieso ein Redaktionsplan nicht stresst, sondern befreit – und weshalb echte Kreativität nur entsteht, wenn man ihr bewusst Raum gibt. Außerdem teile ich meine Erkenntnisse zu einer zentralen Frage: Was performt besser – Audio oder Video auf Spotify? Ein kompakter Rückblick auf ein Jahr zwischen Strategie, Reichweitenaufbau und vielen Experimenten.

But nothing will make you scream into the void faster than losing a session you swear you saved. In this episode of Inside the Recording Studio, Chris & Jody grab you by the shoulders and lovingly scream, “BACK UP YOUR STUFF!” They dive into backup options from “cheap but risky” to “Fort Knox for audio nerds.” Drives, RAIDs, clouds, offsite bunkers—okay, maybe not bunkers, but close. You'll hear their own cautionary tales, including technical ghosts that haunted their studios and files that pulled Houdini acts at the worst possible moment. The guys break down how they organize projects, why simple habits beat complicated systems, and how to build a backup routine that doesn't feel like flossing. It's equal parts education, comedy, and therapy for anyone who's ever lost a take. And yes, Friday Finds is here to save the day with tools that keep your sessions safer than your last ex's Netflix password. #music production workflow #home studio gear essentials #recording setup tips for producers #pro audio gear insights #DAW backup strategies #audio engineering tips #studio gear organization #creative workflow protection

In this episode, Aydin sits down with Ryan McCready, who went from hating AI to becoming one of the most creative AI-powered content builders on the internet. After getting laid off in mid-2025, Ryan realized that every job interview demanded AI fluency. So he went all-in, teaching himself Zapier, Lovable, Supabase, and advanced prompting to engineer a “Content Factory” that turns a webinar into blog posts, clips, and social content in minutes.He shares the mindset shift from “AI is plagiarism” to “AI is an input-output engine,” why content engineering is the future, what makes AI workflows actually work, and how breaking big tasks into many small steps is the secret to non-sloppy AI content.You'll see how he built a 30-step Zapier workflow that analyzes a webinar transcript, extracts frameworks and insights, turns them into pitches, builds outlines, writes social posts, and even generates clip candidates for Descript. If you create content or run marketing—this one is a masterclass.Timestamps0:23.00 – Why he believed AI was a “plagiarism machine”2:04.00 – Getting laid off and realizing every employer wanted AI skills4:37.00 – The workflow that kickstarted his learning (LinkedIn voice extraction + employee advocacy shares)5:40.00 – Learning Lovable and Supabase by building real projects6:51.00 – Why “everyone is a builder now” because of AI tools7:52.00 – Introducing “Content Engineering” and why most marketers can't do it9:03.00 – Example: turning a webinar into 10+ pieces of content10:58.00 – Why webinars usually die after they're aired—and why that's a waste11:43.00 – The “Webinar Content Flywheel” teaser16:30.00 – Why Ryan moved back from n8n to Zapier17:55.00 – Zapier vs. n8n: simplicity, stability, and architecture19:03.00 – “Start small”: a two-step Zap example20:09.00 – Interface demo: uploading a transcript and hitting “Go”21:22.00 – Why Zapier Interfaces make deployment easy22:40.00 – Step-by-step breakdown of the workflow24:06.00 – Example: webinar analysis output (themes, chapters, frameworks)27:02.00 – Creating three blog pitches from the transcript30:43.00 – Sending the pitches to Slack for review31:03.00 – Clip extraction workflow + Descript integration32:14.00 – How he uses Descript's “Underlord” to auto-cut clips33:20.00 – Why this beats automated clip tools like Riverside for B2B35:02.00 – Social content workflow (framework angle, data angle, hot take, wildcard)37:12.00 – Why prompting manually is wasteful—build once, automate forever40:11.00 – “Big → small → big” framework: the secret to non-sloppy AI content41:21.00 – Google's “AI content penalty” myth, according to Ryan42:47.00 – Why your input quality determines whether your AI output is good43:44.00 – What excites him most in the next 12 monthsTools & Technologies MentionedZapier: Automation platform used to chain 30+ steps together: analysis, pitch creation, clip extraction, social content, Notion updates, etc.AI by Zapier: Zapier's built-in LLM module used for analysis, extraction, outline generation, and writing.n8n: Open-source workflow automation platform.

About Nikhil Buduma:Nikhil Buduma is a San Francisco–based entrepreneur, scientist, and engineer working at the cutting edge of AI and healthcare. He is the co-founder and CEO of Ambience Healthcare, an AI platform built to supercharge every healthcare worker with intelligent automation. Under his leadership, Ambience has grown into one of the most well-funded AI healthcare startups in the world, raising over $343 million from top investors, including a16z, OpenAI, Kleiner Perkins, Oak HC/FT, Optum Ventures, and industry pioneers such as Jeff Dean and Pieter Abbeel. Before becoming CEO, Nikhil served as Ambience's Chief Scientist, leading the development of its core AI systems that streamline documentation, coding, and clinical workflows for healthcare systems, including the Cleveland Clinic and St. Luke's.Prior to Ambience, Nikhil co-founded Remedy Health, where he applied machine learning to advance value-based care models, backed by Khosla Ventures and Greylock. He also co-founded Lean On Me, a nonprofit organization that supports mental health and wellness across U.S. college campuses through anonymous peer-to-peer text support networks at institutions such as MIT, Duke, and UC Berkeley.A graduate and valedictorian of Bellarmine College Preparatory, Nikhil earned both his bachelor's and master's degrees in computer science and engineering from MIT. His career reflects a rare blend of technical mastery, compassion, and vision—using AI not to replace clinicians, but to restore the human joy in the practice of medicine.Things You'll Learn:Health systems often see low real-world usage of ambient tools; when daily adoption crosses most clinicians and visits, the ROI conversation becomes meaningful. This requires solving fundamentals across specialties, not just shipping features.If AI generates notes that don't align with payer rules and codes, organizations incur rework and risk. Integrating HCC, ICD-10, and CPT selection, along with supporting language, at the point of care helps prevent denials.Revenue integrity upside: Bringing CDI intelligence forward can reclaim large sums from work already done but not credited. This strengthens both financial sustainability and compliance posture.Continuous third-party auditing and domain-specific modeling are essential because general reasoning models often struggle with the nuances of revenue cycles. Independent validation builds organizational trust.Patient Summary anticipates questions and data needs before the visit, while Chart Chat answers complex, EHR-aware queries in seconds, helping to democratize top-tier standards of care in rural settings.Resources:Connect with and follow Nikhil Buduma on LinkedIn.Follow Ambience Healthcare on LinkedIn and visit their website.

We recorded this episode live at the TLTF Summit and the energy in the room made it feel like the perfect place for a conversation about growth, training, and the rapid climb of legal tech. We grabbed our gear, claimed a corner in the podcast room, and pulled in two guests with front row seats to the changes hitting the industry. Joining us were Kyle Poe from Legora and our friend and guest host, Zena Applebaum of Harbor. The Summit attracts a focused group of founders, investors, and leaders, and the four of us jumped straight into what this event represents and what attendees hope to get from it.Kyle had been on the job for only two months, but Legora moves at a pace that feels closer to dog years. In that short time the team doubled, a new round of funding closed, and the company introduced a major product release. Kyle walked us through Legora's new Portal experience, which brings clients inside the legal workflow in a controlled, collaborative environment. Instead of long email chains and static work product, the Portal supports shared editing, direct review of diligence work, and a more responsive model for client engagement. In an era when clients expect quick turnarounds, this shift sets up a new dynamic for firms.Zena added helpful perspective from her prior trips to TLTF. She described the Summit as a place that rewards conversation, curiosity, and hallway exchanges. It is also a place to study the different stages of the legal tech journey, from early ideas on the startup stage to the seasoned players on the scale stage. She also brought timely news of Harbor's acquisition of Encore Technologies, a move that strengthens Harbor's ability to support training and adoption workflows across firms and corporate legal teams. Her focus on education paired well with Kyle's insights on how Legora approaches enablement through its team of legal engineers.Training became the heart of the conversation. We compared old habits with the expectations of a generation of associates who have been taught to avoid AI until they enter a firm. Kyle stressed the need to anchor attorney training in real use cases and to give them early wins so they build trust in the tools. He described the shift from task-based training to workflow-based thinking. We also talked about how AI is influencing both the pace and structure of client service. Kyle shared examples of how Legora uses prior work product to build integrated workflows, such as interrogatory response generators that pull from a full library of past responses. This not only speeds up production but also increases consistency and helps attorneys understand the reasoning behind revisions. Zena pushed the idea even further, noting that these systems give associates a chance to study the rationale behind changes in a way that human reviewers rarely have time to provide. This leads to better training and stronger validation of the final work product.We closed with our crystal ball question. Kyle sees more adoption on the horizon but also anticipates uneven impacts across different practices as firms figure out how to adjust their business models. Zena pointed to the operational challenges ahead, especially the pressure to invest in data management and cloud infrastructure that supports true AI enablement. Her message was clear. If firms want the benefits later, they need to start organizing the foundations now. This episode blends optimism with realism, and it highlights the practical work ahead for firms, vendors, and everyone in between.

"The More You Know" - Robin Deal A million-gallon-a-day perspective, distilled into actionable steps. Robin Deal, AquaPure Product Manager at Hubbard-Hall unpacks how seasoned pros can squeeze more performance—and less sludge—out of industrial wastewater systems without compromising compliance or plant uptime.    From "clear water in a jar" to stable discharge in the field  Robin details a practical jar-testing workflow: start from upstream processes, target pH using hydroxide/sulfide solubility curves, choose the right coagulant (aluminum, iron, calcium, lanthanum, or organics), and validate against metals/COD/BOD/phosphorus before scaling. The test bench isn't the finish line; it's the feasibility gate when you're treating 150,000+ gpd.  Lean wastewater: cost center or controllable system?  Commodity choices (lime, alum, ferric) can generate 70–85% more sludge than optimized blends—driving hazardous waste hauling, clogging lines, and shortening pump life. Robin reframes the "penny-per-pound" price war into a total-system economics conversation: sludge recyclability, maintenance cycles, and realistic break-even targets.  PFAS: remove now, plan to destroy  For hex-chrome platers and other industrial dischargers, Robin shares near-term and emerging options: carbon filtration for immediate removal, evaporation/condensation where capital exists, and destruction pathways under evaluation—advanced oxidation, electrochemical oxidation, "thermobotic agglomeration," and ball milling—with an eye on evolving limits and cost realities.  One Water thinking for manufacturers  "Water is water." Robin introduces the One Water mindset for plant leaders: tighten internal loops, reduce community draw and discharge impact, and align non-contact, potable, and wastewater under one stewardship model. It's not a club—it's a decision framework that's already influencing global brands and drought-stressed regions.  Treat each round of testing as a hypothesis check, each chemical as a system lever, and each gallon as a shared resource. That's how leaders turn compliance into predictable results. Stay engaged, keep learning, and continue scaling up your knowledge!    Timestamps  16:45 - Trace Blackmore shares insights on current industry events, an upcoming conference, the "magic button" idea for user-friendly wastewater control and announces The Hang to build community engagement 17:50 - Water You Know with James McDonald  23:04 - Interview begins: Robin Deal introduced as AquaPure Product Manager, origin story and family context   28:12 - First Jar Test Story   32:17 - Jar testing Workflow  42:34 - One Water concept  54:12 - Regulations   Quotes  "Just say yes to the job."

If your product strategy stops at the download, you're leaving impact—and revenue—on the table. In this conversation, I sit down with Ghazenfer Mansoor, CEO & founder of Technology Rivers, to talk about building software that actually gets used, loved, and shared. Ghazenfer has been in mobile since the pre-iPhone days and has led the build of nearly 60 apps, primarily in healthcare. We explore ideas from his forthcoming book, Beyond the Download, including why retention beats acquisition, when a mobile app truly makes sense (and when a web experience is smarter), and how AI-driven, proprietary workflows can become a company's real moat. We also step into leadership, including what it takes to fix “broken” projects, the values that guide his global remote team (transparency, fairness, and getting things done), and why peer networks and coaching matter for founders. It's a practical, fast-moving chat for leaders who want their technology to create efficiency, differentiation, and long-term value. Here are some highlights: -Retention over acquisition: Ghazenfer shares practical ways to design for daily use and bring people back because downloads without engagement aren't success. -“Do you really need an app?”: We unpack decision criteria for native vs. web, and why solving a real, repeat problem is the first gate before writing any code. -Workflow is the moat: How codifying proprietary processes, especially in healthcare and HIPAA-sensitive environments, creates efficiency, margin, and higher valuations. -Fixing broken projects: Common failure patterns (from feature chasing to UX missteps) and how to course-correct so you “build it right the first time.” -Leading a global team: The operating system behind Technology Rivers; clear KPIs, remote-first communication, fairness, and a growing commitment to women in tech. Plus the role of EO/Vistage-style peer groups and coaching for tough decisions. About the guest:  Ghazenfer Mansoor is the founder and CEO of Technology Rivers, a Washington, D.C.–area software firm specializing in HIPAA-compliant healthcare SaaS and mobile apps. A mobile veteran since the pre-iPhone era, he has led the build of 59+ apps and numerous AI-powered workflow platforms that help service businesses scale, boost margins, and increase valuation. Known for “building it right the first time,” Ghazenfer is frequently tapped to rescue broken software projects. He's the author of the forthcoming book Beyond the Download: How to Build Mobile Apps That People Love, Use, and Share Every Day and host of the podcast Lessons from the Leap. Active in EO and other CEO peer groups, he leads a global, values-driven team grounded in transparency, fairness, and getting things done.

Earmark Media Presents a bonus episode of Earmark Podcast:Blake sits down with Mary Delaney, CEO of Karbon, and Kenji Kuramoto, co-founder of Acuity, to explore how standardizing workflows can unlock growth without sacrificing the artistry of advisory work. They discuss Karbon's acquisition of Aider, the power of time studies to identify automation opportunities, and why getting senior advisors to embrace process requires framing workflow as empowerment rather than micromanagement. Kenji shares lessons from building Acuity's advisory practice and why workflow due diligence became critical during their 14-firm merger with Sorren.Meet Our GuestsMary DelaneyLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marywdelaney/Learn more about KarbonOfficial website: http://karbonhq.comKenji KuramotoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kenjikuramoto/Learn more about AcuityOfficial website: https://acuity.coNeed CPE?Get CPE for this episode: https://earmark.app/c/2877Get CPE for listening to podcasts with Earmark: https://earmarkcpe.comSubscribe to the Earmark Podcast: https://podcast.earmarkcpe.comGet in TouchThanks for listening and the great reviews!

Building B2B analytics and AI tools that people will actually pay for and use is hard. The reality is, your product won't deliver ROI if no one's using it. That's why first principles thinking says you have to solve the usage problem first. In this episode, I'll explain why the key to user adoption is designing with the flow of work—building your solution around the natural workflows of your users to minimize the behavior changes you're asking them to make. When users clearly see the value in your product, it becomes easier to sell and removes many product-related blockers along the way. We'll explore how product design impacts sales, the difference between buyers and users in enterprise contexts, and why challenging the “data/AI-first” mindset is essential. I'll also share practical ways to align features with user needs, reduce friction, and drive long-term adoption and impact. If you're ready to move beyond the dashboard and start building products that truly fit the way people work, this episode is for you.   Highlights/Skip to:  The core argument: why solving for user adoption first helps demonstrate ROI and facilitate sales in B2B analytics and AI products  (1:34) How showing the value to actual end users—not just buyers—makes it easier to sell your product (2:33) Why designing for outcomes instead of outputs (dashboards, etc) leads to better adoption and long-term product value (8:16) How to “see” beyond users' surface-level feature requests and solutions so you can solve for the actual, unspoken need—leading to an indispensable product (10:23) Reframing feature requests as design-actionable problems (12:07)  Solving for unspoken needs vs. customer-requested features and functions (15:51) Why “disruption” is the wrong approach for product development (21:19)   Quotes:  “Customers' tolerance for poorly designed B2B software has decreased significantly over the last decade. People now expect enterprise tools to function as smoothly and intuitively as the consumer apps they use every day.  Clunky software that slows down workflows is no longer acceptable, regardless of the data it provides. If your product frustrates users or requires extra effort to achieve results, adoption will suffer. Even the most powerful AI or analytics engine cannot compensate for a confusing or poorly structured interface. Enterprises now demand experiences that are seamless, efficient, and aligned with real workflows.    This shift means that product design is no longer a secondary consideration; it is critical to commercial success.  Founders and product leaders must prioritize usability, clarity, and delight in every interaction. Software that is difficult to use increases the risk of churn, lengthens sales cycles, and diminishes perceived value. Products must anticipate user needs and deliver solutions that integrate naturally into existing workflows.  The companies that succeed are the ones that treat user experience as a strategic differentiator. Ignoring this trend creates friction, frustration, and missed opportunities for adoption and revenue growth. Design quality is now inseparable from product value and market competitiveness.  The message is clear: if you want your product to be adopted, retain customers, and win in the market, UX must be central to your strategy.” —   “No user really wants to ‘check a dashboard' or use a feature for its own sake. Dashboards, charts, and tables are outputs, not solutions. What users care about is completing their tasks, solving their problems, and achieving meaningful results.  Designing around workflows rather than features ensures your product is indispensable. A workflow-first approach maps your solution to the actual tasks users perform in the real world.  When we understand the jobs users need to accomplish, we can build products that deliver real value and remove friction. Focusing solely on features or data can create bloated products that users ignore or struggle to use.  Outputs are meaningless if they do not fit into the context of a user's work. The key is to translate user needs into actionable workflows and design every element to support those flows.  This approach reduces cognitive load, improves adoption, and ensures the product's ROI is realized. It also allows you to anticipate challenges and design solutions that make workflows smoother, faster, and more efficient.  By centering design on actual tasks rather than arbitrary metrics, your product becomes a tool users can't imagine living without. Workflow-focused design directly ties to measurable outcomes for both end users and buyers. It shifts the conversation from features to value, making adoption, satisfaction, and revenue more predictable.” — “Just because a product is built with AI or powerful data capabilities doesn't mean anyone will adopt it. Long-term value comes from designing solutions that users cannot live without. It's about creating experiences that take people from frustration to satisfaction to delight.  Products must fit into users' natural workflows and improve their performance, efficiency, and outcomes. Buyers' perceived ROI is closely tied to meaningful adoption by end users. If users struggle, churn rises, and financial impact is diminished, regardless of technical sophistication.  Designing for delight ensures that the product becomes a positive force in the user's daily work. It strengthens engagement, reduces friction, and builds customer loyalty.  High-quality UX allows the product to demonstrate value automatically, without constant explanations or hand-holding. Delightful experiences encourage advocacy, referrals, and easier future sales.  The real power of design lies in aligning technical capabilities with human behavior and workflow.  When done correctly, this approach transforms a tool into an indispensable part of the user's job and a demonstrable asset for the business.  Focusing on usability, satisfaction, and delight creates long-term adoption and retention, which is the ultimate measure of product success.” — “Your product should enter the user's work stream like a raft on a river, moving in the same direction as their workflow. Users should not have to fight the current or stop their flow to use your tool.  Introducing friction or requiring users to change their behavior increases risk, even if the product delivers ROI. The more naturally your product aligns with existing workflows, the easier it is to adopt and the more likely it is to be retained.  Products that feel intuitive and effortless become indispensable, reducing conversations about usability during demos. By matching the flow of work, your solution improves satisfaction, accelerates adoption, and enhances perceived value.  Disrupting workflows without careful observation can create new problems, frustrate users, and slow down sales. The goal is to move users from frustration to satisfaction to delight, all while achieving the intended outcomes.  Designing with the flow of work ensures that every feature, interface element, and interaction fits seamlessly into the tasks users already perform. It allows users to focus on value instead of figuring out how to use the product.  This alignment is key to unlocking adoption, retaining customers, and building long-term loyalty.  Products that resist the natural workflow may demonstrate ROI on paper but fail in practice due to friction and low engagement.  Success requires designing a product that supports the user's journey downstream without interruption or extra effort.  When you achieve this, adoption becomes easier, sales conversations smoother, and long-term retention higher.” —

What if every morning you woke up to the biggest breakthroughs in your industry - already summarised and ranked before your first sip of coffee? In this Quick Win episode, I speak with Morgan Brown, Vice President of Product and Growth at Dropbox, about how he uses AI to simplify his workday - from automating his inbox to designing a daily AI briefing that scans and summarises the entire landscape of research papers, newsletters, tweets, and podcasts. Starting with one simple prompt, Morgan built a system that cuts through noise and delivers only what really matters. Morgan and I discuss: How Morgan uses AI to automate routine tasks like email triage and information curation. The process he followed to build a personalised daily AI news digest. Why his approach started not with coding, but with one simple question: What do I keep checking every day? How he refined his system through prompts, iteration, and feedback loops — just like editing a great piece of writing. The mindset shift from consuming more information to filtering for signal over noise. KEY QUOTES “I realised there was no way to stay on top of that volume consistently - so I started with a prompt.” “I didn’t start with coding or fancy tools. It started with asking, what sources do I keep checking and how can I pull them together?” Connect with Morgan Brown on X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and his website https://www.morganbrown.co/ Check out Morgan’s book Hacking Growth.
