ODN: Measuring Risks For Safer Roads With Carey Anne Nadeau

Tue, 11 Feb 2020 11:00:00 GMT

There is no predicting of what may happen on the road. The best thing we can do is take precautionary measures. Taking that to heart, Carey Anne Nadeau founded ODN—a company that builds AI products that augments what insurance carriers know about who their customers are with information about where they drive and their risk exposures on the road. In this episode, Carey explains further to us how they do this and the risk rating methods they use to measure environmental hazards on the road. She also taps into the use of big data, shedding light on how far we’ve come in terms of the technologies we have to predict and protect ourselves. With technologies like this, the future is bright for the taking. All we need is to take advantage of services like that from Carey’s ODN.

Stepping Into The Spotight: Your Guide To Being Noticed With Tsufit

Tue, 08 Oct 2019 10:00:00 GMT

Being noticed has become a necessity in this modern day and age. One of the key persons who can share her genius about how to get noticed is former lawyer, singer, and comedienne Tsufit. Through her unique expertise, she has recently been featured in Forbes and is the author of the award-winning book, Step Into the Spotlight!: A Guide to Getting Noticed. Her life has become a topic of interest for many mainly because of how she has gracefully transitioned from a stable law practice with four small children to leaving all that behind and going on the road to become an actress and a comedienne.

Designing a brand to swim against the current and stand out. Ben Baker

Tue, 13 Aug 2019 22:09:13 GMT

The power of a developing your brand with Ben Baker Ben Baker - author, keynote speaker, and consultant - helps develop stories for clients in compelling ways. Every brand (personal or company) needs a unique story that should engage their audience, draw them in, and help them understand the value of the brand. Ben’s job is to help us find that story and tell it in ways that are compelling, authentic, and memorable. In this show, we cover the essential characteristics of a great marketer and how we, as a brand, can use our story to stand out. Here's what we cover. Here's what we discuss in this week's show: When people ask Ben what he does, how does he like to reply? Are comparisons and our easy access into the world of other people putting pressure on today's worker? “Who I am as a person, and who you are as a person, should not be determined by the things in our lives.” For many, do things define their brand? What does the future look like for personal branding? "Why fit in if you were born to stand out," Dr Suess. Is it getting harder to swim against the current and stand out? Growing up, Ben was expected to sit at the table and converse with the friends of his parents. Why does he believe this is valuable? Why do we continuously get disappointed by companies and salespeople who don’t truly listen? What does history tell us about what is likely to happen in the future? What are the key characteristics of a great marketer? How does Ben record his learnings from books, podcasts, blogs, video? Why does Ben choose articles to read more than books? What is Ben still trying to discover about his brand? What is Ben most nervous about today? Was there a moment in time when Ben trusted his voice? When targeting your perfect customer, it’s about focussing on champions. Ben describes a champion. When did Ben last say no? Ben was in a Mastermind, how does that work, what’s the format? How can our mistakes build trust? The Mojo Radio Show - © Gary Bertwistle & Darren Robertson Products or companies we discuss are not paid endorsements. They are not sponsored by, nor do we have any professional or affiliate relationship of any kind with any of the companies or products highlighted in the show.... sadly! It’s just stuff we like, think is cool and maybe of interest to you our listeners. “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!” ― Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967

Ep: 042 Ben Baker on the GoAscend Podcast Nov 5 2018

Mon, 05 Nov 2018 17:06:32 GMT

Show Notes: Ben has lived all over the U.S. but has settled in Vancouver, Canada. He loves all of the things to do there. People buy from people. Relationships are important. The habit that makes Ben more successful is getting up early and reading for about an hour. It helps him get a broader scope of the world around him. Every brand (personal or corporate) has a story. Ben believes that companies should get rid of their vision and mission statement and tell their brand story instead. Companies have vision and mission statements that they’ve spent so much time perfectly & crafting and yet no one remembers them. Who are we? What are we? Where are we going? What are we doing? Give your employees and customers something to grab onto and interact with. You want to have your customers tell your story for you. It’s building marketing that you’re not paying for. Everybody needs a helping hand. People need to be able to sell themselves. If you write it down, it’s real. Defining your brand is how you show up. You can say whatever you want, but until you act it’s not real. What do we really do at the core of our business? Who are our customers we serve and why do they care? Ask your customers: What you do well. What you can do better. If you aren’t gathering data and making sense of it, it’s useless. Don’t ignore problems because your customers won’t ignore them. Companies need a differentiating factor. Someone always sells something similar so why do people want to buy from us? 3 Steps Insight and Discovery Where are you today? Are we happy where we are? Is our brand relevant? Do my employees understand my brand story? Get your story on the same page. Does everyone get what you do? Start Building Your Brand. A logo is not a brand. A brand is what people think of you when you’re not in the room. Make sure your brand is consistent and that staff understands your brand otherwise they can’t relay it to customers. Listen When Dealing with Marketing. It’s the comments that are gold. Negative comments tell you to pay attention to something. Respond to comments while helping people understand why you care about them. Be authentic. It’s not a sliding scale. Either you are who you are or you aren’t. Ben Baker’s Recharge Round Share with us how you believe your mindset affects your life? Mindset absolutely affects life. If you believe you can, you can. If you believe you can’t, you are also right. What do you do daily to bring Energy into your life? He tries to go for a walk everyday because it allows him to clear his head and refocus. Share the number one connection that has made the biggest impact on your life? His dad was always an entrepreneur. He said that it’s not about failures but about what you learn and how you move forward. What advice has Influenced you the most in your life? Do what it takes to take care of your customer. If you take care of a customer, they’ll take care of you. Define in one sentence or less, what legacy you want to leave on the world? He wants to make the world a little better by educating people.
