#455 - Brent Keltner gets REAL about The Revenue Acceleration Playbook
Buyer Personalization Drives Revenue Generate more qualified leads that close and upsell faster from each buyer or customer interaction. https://winalytics.com/ According to Gartner, Forrester, and McKinsey, 75% of B2B buyers expect deep personalization, and companies that get this right grow 2x faster than their peers. Easy to say, harder to do. Buyer personalization means not product pitching but telling a personalized story about value in each buyer interaction. Top sales teams understand this is only possible with shared sales playbooks to capture and share best practices for personalized messaging. Top marketing teams tell the same story about value across their website, content, campaigns and sales conversations. Brent Keltner, Ph.D. is founder and President of Winalytics LLC, a go-to-market- and revenue acceleration consultancy. He is also author of The Revenue Acceleration Playbook. Winalytics helps clients reach their top growth potential by shifting from product-driven conversations to authentic conversations that anchor on buyer-defined value. Before starting Winalytics, Brent spent more than a decade as a revenue leader in enterprise to early stage companies, including Kaplan, Eduventures, Plus Delta Partners and CollegiateLink. He began his career as a Ph.D. social scientist and spent 10 years conducting qualitative research interviews at Stanford University and the RAND Corporation.

#454 - Eli Packouz gets REAL about a Perfect Floss Every time in 10 Seconds!
Instafloss automatically flosses all your teeth in under 10 seconds. It is comfortable, fast, and effective. Instafloss uses multiple water jets to give an effective and comfortable floss in only ten seconds. A small tank holds water which is pumped to the mouthpiece (at your desired pressure). The mouthpiece aims pulsing water jets at 90° to the gumline (the most effective cleaning angle, as per Eakle WS, et al.) on both sides, front and back, of your top and bottom teeth. As you sweep the handle from one side of your mouth to the other, the jets automatically floss 360° around every tooth.

#451 - Cari Jacobs-Crovetto gets REAL about becoming a Highly Effective Uniquely HUMAN
I occupy a wide spectrum of expertise - creating "from scratch" brands based in applied customer insights to growth hacking and supercharged customer relationship marketing programs that create loyalty beyond reason; from going deep and wide in growth and acquisition marketing, brand strategy, customer cross selling to building loyalty programs / CRM, and events, experiential, comms and PR; and from assembling, coaching and leading high performance teams to coaching c-suites and executives on creating business strategies that are as impactful as they are "felt in the bones" to easing anxiety and improving communications for a CEO. You might ask yourself, “what’s the Venn diagram between business strategy, stellar marketing and executive coaching?” It all starts with a core governing belief: When we understand the core practice of empathy for another person – for the customer, for others and for ourselves, it all becomes a cake walk from there; ) I love understanding people. What makes them feel, or act, or think. That comes alive as much in customer journey mapping, customer personas and segmentation as it does in a deeply grounded coaching session. But it is not enough just to understand the customer, or the client. It is how that understanding comes to life in application. And how it is then transformed into action. I have applied years of on-the-job operations to now help leaders and organizations surface their best strategic thinking, deepen customer understanding and self-awareness, build better brands, create breakthrough stories and live from an emotionally intelligent and wide space.

Investing in a website that is not optimized for conversions is like pouring water into a leaky bucket with a hole in it. You are likely spending thousands of dollars on your digital marketing efforts, all to have your website not properly optimized to convert that traffic into buyers.

With the increased cost of customer acquisition, it’s crucial that your brand converts as many visitors into buyers as possible. That’s where ThrillX comes in. We are a Canadian-based UX/UI Design and Conversion Rate Optimization agency helping eCommerce and B2B brands improve conversion rates without even touching your ads. We put you in a position to scale your marketing efforts so that when you receive more traffic, the revenue you generate is amplified. How do we do it? We have a unique data-driven and repeatable conversion optimization process that we use to increase your conversion rates and all your KPIs (AOV, RPV, etc) sustainably over time. Our process combines our expertise in human psychology and behavioral science with analytics tools such as heatmaps, scroll maps, user-testing, surveys, A/B testing, custom landing pages, and customer interviews to identify pain points and motivations. Every decision we make is based on real data and statistics, eliminating the guesswork and maximizing results.

#438 - David CM Carter gets REAL about How the Entelechy Academy Limited is changing the World
Entelechy Academy is the intentioned ‘entelechy’ of David’s career and life purpose – his mentoring legacy project – where he wants to make a positive difference to millions by supporting them (and himself) to actualise their potential and become the very best version of themselves. A 40+ year career has had a ‘red-thread’ of creating new business concepts and making them become a reality, despite being regularly told ‘that's not possible’. A tenacious visionary who bravely and courageously ‘gets stuff done’ that others often thought impossible. During his life, David has built a unique and precious asset. Not only has he understood the fundamental importance of character qualities as the foundation of personal growth and development. He has and for the first time, codified those qualities and developed a framework that links those qualities to the soft and technical skills that people need to succeed. During his twenties, David spent ten years in investment banking and private equity (living abroad in the USA, UK, Europe, Middle and Far East) where he learned a lot about how to do business in many key cultures around the world – as well as being involved in many business verticals. In his thirties he transitioned from advisor/consultant to be an entrepreneur in the UK leisure sector, including two start-ups, the first of which was sold, and the second launched on the AIM stock market. David spent the next 14 years building and leading, as Founder, CEO and Chairman, Merryck & Co., which eventually became the world’s leading CEO Business Mentoring Company. In 2010, he exited — and launched himself as THE MENTOR — using the techniques in his first book BREAKTHROUGH. David has enjoyed the highest of personal and business successes — as well as survived a few failures and near disasters, plus 20 years as a single parent, each time making a comeback as a ‘better version of himself’. David is a zen master at equanimity, and would be described by those who have worked with and for him as high impact, determined, creative, intelligent, imaginative, curious, interesting, and interested. David’s belief in others is matched only by his restless frustration that so little is done to unlock the potential that we all have. The Entelechy Academy practically addresses this challenge, for the benefit of individuals and society alike.

#434 - Nik Tarascio gets REAL about Building an Private Jet Airline Company in 2023
Understanding how to utilize private jets to serve your lifestyle or business needs can feel like a complex undertaking. At Ventura Air Services, we help people who want to charter or acquire an aircraft as well as those who already own but want to reduce costs or want support in maintaining their aircraft. I welcome the opportunity to discuss our services with you. https://venturajet.com/ Growing up at my parent’s flight school, I was immersed in the world of private aviation. My earliest memories are of completing my coloring books from the back of a prop plane. At 16, I earned my license to fly solo and mechanics certification. By 19, I was piloting jets. As CEO of Ventura, I help people create their own private aviation lifestyle. This is how we make it possible: • Define and source the right aircraft for your mission and secure financing • Set up ownership structures to maximize tax and financial benefits • Manage all aspects of your plane so you only need to show up for flights • Help make a financial return while reducing ownership costs • Hire and provide experienced pilots and crews • Find the right type of charter aircraft for your travels to anywhere • Provide certified and licensed aircraft maintenance, avionics services and complete aircraft upgrades I’ve heard colleagues say that the number one thing they would do if they made a big exit or had a big financial win is buy a jet. Once I show them the numbers, most are shocked that chartering and owning don’t require as much investment as expected. This inspired my book: Own Your Own Plane: It Costs Less Than You Think. Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Own-Your-Plane-Costs-Think-ebook/dp/B079SDH2RG To make the dream of owning a plane possible, we created an aircraft ownership program that allows for an incredible tax benefit while eliminating fixed costs and provides a revenue stream to offset costs. When I am not flying or leading Ventura, I write and perform music in NYC. I enjoy biking, snowboarding, and talking about big ideas.

#432 - Kevin Lisitsin gets REAL about starting in Insurance & Scaling Food Businesses
Kevin Lisitsin was born in Modesto, California, the first of three sons. His mother, Cindy, is a Central Valley native, and father, Keith, is originally from the San Francisco bay area, the son of a Russian immigrant. Kevin learned from his parents at an early age the value of hard work and self-sufficiency. He has been promoted and has brought greater productivity and profitability to every company he’s worked for, and he has a long history of youth development, volunteering as a mentor to middle school-age students including inmates in local juvenile justice programs and involved in many professional non-profits that help bring education to home ownership for all. Currently, Kevin owns a local Farmers Insurance Agency which serves the greater Fresno area in auto, home, commercial, and life insurance. He is also co-owner of Rocket Dog Gourmet Brats and Brew, a locally owned and operated one-of-a-kind eatery currently and Summer Fox Brewery in 2019, with two locations. He is co-founder of a non-profit that will be working with foster kids form 15-25 years of age, called Diligent Heart. But Kevin’s most important job and source of greatest pride is his family: Sarah and his children Claire, Nolan, and Elijah. It’s his strong convictions, deeply-held values, and fierce commitment for success that propels Kevin to work as hard as he does.

Two-time award winning TEDx speaker, #1 International Best-Selling Author, Innovative leader of helping healing professionals to harness the power of their healing voice for health, wellness and feminine empowerment. Healing Music Pioneer, Founder of Voices of Eden, ► [email protected] ◄ & ► 310.951.3947 ◄ ► www.VoicesOfEden.com/etworkshop Many people have been mesmerized by my unusual voice. When I was 8, I received a gift of Hebrew music and learned all the words sung in this ancient tongue, by heart. At 13, in Israel, a wise woman leader encouraged me to sing. This healed my humiliation of having my mouth washed out with soap when I’d express my truth, even when it contradicted what others thought was best for me. I learned to follow my inner voice. It guided me to leave the US, broadcast the Olympic Games for CBS, give two TEDx talks, and initiate the world’s first live healing music medical research project in a 50/50% Israeli-Palestinian neonatal intensive care unit that got featured in the worldwide press (and I’m not even a medical doctor)! I love helping leaders to trust their inner voice and tap into the ancient wisdom of feminine leadership. These are unprecedented times. It’s time we lead in unprecedented ways.
