  Where Is Your Marketing Money Actually Going? Turning Ad Spend Into Real Customers with Chris Kennedy

  Sep 22, 202620 minS196

  What if the problem with your marketing isn't that you need more leads but that you're not getting enough value from the leads you're already generating? In this episode, we sit down with Chris Kennedy , CEO and co-founder of Astrafuse , to explore what it really takes to turn advertising spend into real customers and measurable business growth. With about a decade of experience helping major home improvement companies manage millions in ad spend, Chris has built the software, systems, and strategies designed to help businesses understand where their marketing money is going and whether it's actually working. We explore how business owners can determine what they can afford to spend to acquire a customer, why "we need more leads" is often the wrong diagnosis, and how to identify whether the real problem is the ad platform or what's happening inside the sales funnel. Chris also breaks down the mistakes businesses make when scaling paid advertising, how to grow without relying on questionable tactics, and the metrics business owners should actually be paying attention to when evaluating their marketing performance. The conversation also dives into AI and marketing , including where AI genuinely creates value and where it can become little more than an impressive demo. As an operator who has been building technology both before and during the AI boom, Chris brings a practical perspective on separating useful innovation from hype. If you're a business owner, founder, marketer, or home improvement professional looking to make smarter marketing decisions, improve your customer acquisition, and get more from your ad spend, this episode offers practical insights you can start applying immediately. More leads aren't always the answer. Sometimes, the real opportunity is understanding what's happening between the click and the customer. #ChrisKennedy #Astrafuse #Marketing #DigitalMarketing #PaidAds #Advertising #LeadGeneration #CustomerAcquisition #MarketingStrategy #BusinessGrowth #HomeImprovement #Entrepreneurship #AI #AIMarketing #MarketingAnalytics #ConversionRateOptimization #SalesFunnel #AdSpend #GrowthMarketing #Podcast #DesignWave

If you're interested in personal branding, LinkedIn, PR, thought leadership, entrepreneurship, visibility, or building a business without burning out , this episode offers practical strategies and a fresh perspective on turning expertise into influence. Your expertise can open doors but visibility helps make sure the right people know you're the one who can walk through them. #KarenYankovich #GoodGirlsGetRich #PersonalBranding #LinkedIn #LinkedInStrategy #PR #ThoughtLeadership #Visibility #Entrepreneurship #BusinessGrowth #WomenInBusiness #BrandStrategy #MediaVisibility #Leadership #ImposterSyndrome #PersonalGrowth #DigitalMarketing #Influence #Podcast #DesignWave

  The New American Dream: AI, Opportunity & Human Potential with Bradley R. Aman

  Sep 16, 202625 minS193

  What happens to the American Dream when artificial intelligence changes the way we work, create, and build wealth? In this episode, we sit down with Bradley R. Aman , author of American Dream AI , to explore the evolving relationship between technology, human ambition, and opportunity in the modern world. Bradley shares his perspective on how AI is redefining what is possible for individuals across industries and why the conversation shouldn't only focus on what technology might replace, but on what it can help people accomplish. We discuss how artificial intelligence can become a partner that amplifies human capability , rather than simply a tool that automates tasks. Bradley explains why learning to understand and integrate AI into everyday work and decision-making could become increasingly important for people looking to adapt and create new opportunities. The conversation also explores innovation, leadership, economic transformation, personal growth, and the changing definition of success in the twenty-first century. Rather than approaching AI from a purely technical perspective, Bradley brings a human-centered view of technological change encouraging people to remain adaptable, curious, and willing to rethink traditional ideas about work and achievement. If you're interested in AI, entrepreneurship, innovation, leadership, technology, or the future of work , this episode offers a thought-provoking look at how humans can adapt and thrive alongside rapidly advancing technology. #BradleyAman #BradleyRAman #AmericanDreamAI #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #FutureOfWork #Entrepreneurship #Innovation #Leadership #Technology #EconomicTransformation #BusinessGrowth #AIForBusiness #PersonalGrowth #HumanPotential #DigitalTransformation #Success #Podcast #PodMatch #DesignWave

  Beyond Prompting: Building a True AI Partnership with Summer B Joy

  Sep 11, 202621 minS193

  What if the next evolution of AI isn't about making smarter machines, but about creating better partnerships between humans and AI ? In this episode, we sit down with Summer B Joy , an entrepreneur, strategist, and unlikely tech founder who turned to AI after COVID disrupted her family business and challenged everything she believed about strategy, coaching, and creating results. Summer shares how her experience working with elite business masterminds led her to a deeper question: why can smart, capable people have the right strategy, resources, and support and still struggle to take action? That question became the foundation for SoulCoded AI —an approach to AI designed to understand not just the strategy, but the person using it. We explore the difference between generic AI, trained AI, and AI as a strategic partner , and why better prompting may not be the real answer to getting more from AI. Summer explains how AI can help people recognize their default patterns, strengthen decision-making, and move from knowing what to do to actually doing it. We also discuss the risks of relying too heavily on AI, including losing our originality, judgment, and ability to think for ourselves. The goal isn't to let AI replace human thinking, but to use it to become more intentional, more effective, and more unmistakably ourselves . If you're a founder, entrepreneur, strategist, creative, or professional exploring how AI can genuinely improve the way you work and make decisions , this conversation offers a fresh perspective on what human-AI collaboration could look like. #SummerBJoy #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #SoulCodedAI #Entrepreneurship #FutureOfAI #AITools #AIForBusiness #BusinessStrategy #Innovation #Leadership #DecisionMaking #EntrepreneurMindset #Technology #PersonalGrowth #FutureOfWork #HumanCenteredAI #Podcast #PodMatch #DesignWave

  Sep 10, 202623 minS191

  What if your book could do more than sit on a shelf? What if it could become a powerful tool for building your brand, attracting the right audience, and growing your business? In this episode, we sit down with Sarah Bean , publishing and book marketing expert at Book Launchers , to explore how authors can think beyond simply writing and launching a book and start using it strategically. With more than 20 years of experience across traditional publishing and self-publishing, Sarah has worked with 800+ authors , celebrities, athletes, and bestselling authors, giving her a unique perspective on what makes books succeed and why many publishing strategies fail. We explore how to determine whether a book is actually the right strategy for your goals, how to position yourself as an authority without needing a massive following, and how authors can align their message, audience, and business vision. Sarah also shares insights from behind the scenes of publishing, including what publishers look for, the role of storytelling and publicity, how to approach book marketing, and why the future of publishing may be less about mass audiences and more about communities, authority, and multi-format content . We also dive into the growing role of AI in book marketing , building communities around ideas, and turning intellectual property into something that can support a broader business ecosystem. If you're an entrepreneur, expert, consultant, thought leader, creator, or aspiring author , this episode offers practical insights into transforming your knowledge into a book and transforming that book into a meaningful business asset. A book isn't just something you publish. Done strategically, it can become the foundation for what you build next. #SarahBean #BookLaunchers #BookMarketing #Publishing #SelfPublishing #Authors #Entrepreneurship #PersonalBranding #ThoughtLeadership #BusinessGrowth #ContentMarketing #Storytelling #BrandStrategy #AuthorityBuilding #AI #AIMarketing #AuthorMarketing #Publicity #CommunityBuilding #Podcast #DesignWave
