Speak Like A CEO | November Ep 13
<p>Lazy language is the fast food of the 21st century.</p><p>There's four steps to remove lazy language, each matched to levels of awareness.</p><p>At first you wonder why people don’t understand you. You blame how others think instead of how you speak. </p><p>Then you start hearing the maybes, I thinks, literallys, ums, and likes. You hear yourself mean well yet sound rude. </p><p>Next, you think of the word and stop yourself before you say it out loud. </p><p>Lastly, you’re back to being unaware, but now people lean in to hear what you have to say. You sound like you belong in the board room.<br>If you turn on the jargon, you turn on the smoke machine.</p><p><strong>Pick one of these to stop saying this month.</strong></p><p>Lazy labels: Turn them into actions.</p><ul><li>"The opposite of slow is flow"</li></ul><p>Especially</p><p>Very</p><p>Thing</p><p>Kind of</p><p><strong>Corporate Jargon</strong></p><p>Innovative </p><p>Robust</p><p>Seamless </p><p>Impactful</p><p>Cutting-edge</p><p><strong>Non-committal ly words.</strong> </p><p>Probably </p><p>Possibly </p><p>Potentially </p><p>Personally </p><p>Ideally </p><p>Hopefully</p><p><strong>October carry-overs:</strong></p><ol><li><p>you know what I mean</p></li><li><p>basically</p></li><li><p>essentially</p></li><li><p>I think</p></li><li><p>just</p></li><li><p>stuff</p></li><li><p>something</p></li><li><p>maybe</p></li><li><p>interesting</p></li><li><p>Let’s do it later</p></li></ol><p><strong>Cut it if it’s vague, too polite, or too proud.Use it if it’s short, simple, and observable.</strong></p>

No More Lot Sitters | Ep 12
<p>This episode introduces LoRalot.</p><p>The parking system that enforces itself.</p><p>If you own a grocery store, a bank, a mall, a restaurant, or a parking lot, and wonder why your lot is full but your building isn't, or why revenues don't add up on busy days, this episode was made for you.</p><p>You'll hear my description of the tradeoffs to each current parking management solution and then I'll explain ours at LoRalot.</p><p>To counteract my bias, I want to give you a framework you can use to decide if this is right for you. </p><p>Any parking management solution needs each of the following three pillars.</p><p>If it's missing only one, then lot sitters love you.</p><p>Loud honking, customers circling, and the occasional swear word will all be the too common appearance. </p><p>Here are the three pillars:</p><p>You need a way to track the cars. </p><p>Which means you know exactly which parking spots are occupied at any time. </p><p>A way to time the cars. </p><p>How long each car has been in your lot and when they overstay the time limit.</p><p>And a way to alert to tow the cars.To quickly let your staff or tow partner know if needed.</p><p>Track, Time, and Tow.</p><p>Use this framework to make informed decision for yourself.</p><p>How does how you manage your lot align with track, time, and tow?</p><p>Here's how we approach managing your parking lot:</p><p>Sensors are laid in the ground in each spot. They see when cars come and when they go. </p><p>They update a live map. It shows grey spots open, green spots taken, red spots overstayed. </p><p>If time runs out, an alert of your choice is sent. Warn, ticket, tow, or anything you'd like. No need to tow if you don't want to. </p><p>Next, the sensors collect lots of data. Average stay time, total cars parked per day, peak hours, busiest spots, turnover percentage, legal hours, illegal hours, occupancy rate and more.</p><p>But I truly believe that unless data is applied it’s useless. If it’s a metric that sits there and it doesn’t change behavior you don’t need it.</p><p>We focus on the actions to take that make your lot so that people parking in it are happier and spend more.</p><p>We avoid expensive cameras and it's privacy friendly. Plus no more running around.</p><p>Run our self-enforcing solution through the track, time, and tow framework.</p><p>Up to you if it checks each box.</p><p>If you’re listening before we talk, it’s very nice to meet you. </p><p>We start with our free 7-day No More Lot Sitters System. </p><p>To see if it's a good fit for you.</p><p>Looking forward to answering any questions you may have.</p><p>Thanks so much for your time.</p>

Trillion Dollar Questions | Day 10
<p>Two trillion. That's the amount that one of the big three consultant firms thinks AI models needs to generate in annual revenue by 2030.</p><p>Today? AI makes 50 billion dollars per year.</p><p>1.95 trillion short.</p><p>Why do they predict such a timeline? What happens if the gap doesn't close in five years?</p><p>I had no idea where to even start to get to the bottom of this.</p><p>So I asked a founder who lived through the internet bubble and has a company with a market capitalization of 2.27 trillion.</p><p>In my mock interview with Jeff Bezos, he teaches us about the potential of an AI industrial bubble. And what it would be like to live through it.</p><p> Before my interview, I knew that billions of dollars were being invested in data centers and GPUS, but I didn't realize what could go wrong.</p><p>Has overexcitement led to overinvestment?Is this really the price of progress?</p><p>This episode is my attempt at grasping at a simple understanding of the future of AI.</p><p>Thanks for listening to day 10 of Off Payroll.</p>
