With publication of the GC's response to summer 2023 consultation replies being apparently imminent (based on white paper timelines stating that affordability checks will become a mandated requirement by summer 2024), is this too little, too late or do we think the parliamentary debate might actually throw a spanner in the regulatory reform works? Either way it will make for fascinating viewing for anyone connected to the U.K. gambling sector. #kudos to the Racing Post for getting it to this point, not something I expected when they started their campaign! #gamblingindustry #regulatoryreform #parliamentarydebate #affordabilitychecks https://lnkd.in/evKtpPT7

100 Million Dollar Offers? The danger of running a crazy race… In the wild world of offers, especially in the online business space, It can often feel like a race to see who can make the boldest, most outlandish claims; After all, it seems like everyone read Alex Hormozi's "100 Million Dollar Offers,” And decided to go up the ante, pushing their promises to the absolute edge. But while big, bold offers can definitely grab attention, There's a big problem lurking beneath the surface: The ability to actually deliver on those promises. Making a crazy offer might get you some quick wins in the short term, But in the long run, it can do more harm than good. The risk of overpromising and underdelivering is real, And it can turn a potential goldmine into a reputation nightmare. So, how do you avoid falling into this trap? The key is to start with that bold, attention-grabbing offer, But then work your way back to what you can actually deliver consistently. For example, if you’re tempted to offer a “Lose 20 Pounds in 20 Days or Your Money Back” guarantee, Take a step back; Can you really ensure that every single client will hit that target? Probably not. But maybe you can promise, “Lose 10 Pounds in 20 Days with Our Proven System or Your Money Back.” Which is still a strong offer, but one that’s more realistic and sustainable. This approach doesn’t mean you have to water down your offer to the point of being boring; Instead, it’s about finding that sweet spot where your promise is compelling and achievable. Your customers will appreciate the honesty, And you’ll build a reputation for delivering exactly what you promise or even better. To spice things up even further; Be upfront about the things you cannot do as well as the potential downsides of working with you; But then counter that with a positive that negates said downside. An example is: “We don’t have any client testimonials under our belt But that means that we will do everything in our power to make you our first client that testifies to exceptional services.” Well, there you have it, Stop running the ‘craziest offer’ race and run a race of your own. You’re welcome #marketing #sales #business #people

GOLF-flation? The demand for prestige golf club membership is growing, and so too are membership prices: The exclusive La Gorce Country Club in Miami Beach costs $700,000 to join, up from about $200,000 before the pandemic.....that's 250% inflation in 5 years! More proof that the wealthiest are experiencing - and driving - some of the biggest inflation numbers by far.....and can afford it, especially those that have eliminated 5-12% in state and city taxes because of a move to a low or no-state tax state. That is tons more disposable income that enters the local economy and more proof that those selling to the wealthy - or anyone - who sees that their audience has more money to spend, simply raises prices. That's the free market! (FT)

Big update on Manchester City’s 115 charges hearing: Manchester City are gearing up for a crucial hearing starting next month regarding the 115 alleged violations of Premier League financial regulations. The Premier League’s investigation, launched in 2023, has accused the club of breaching Financial Fair Play rules up until the 2017–18 season. According to a report by Martyn Ziegler, the chief sports reporter for The Times, the hearing is set to commence in mid-to-late September and is expected to last approximately ten weeks. The proceedings will be overseen by an independent commission, with a verdict anticipated in early 2025. The Premier League’s charges against Manchester City are not limited to financial discrepancies. The club is also accused of failing to cooperate with the investigation and withholding necessary documents over five seasons, from 2018-19 to 2022-23. Potential consequences for Manchester City if found guilty If found guilty of the financial charges, the consequences for Manchester City could be severe. Possible punishments include point deductions, the potential stripping of titles, or even relegation from the Premier League, though the latter two are considered less likely. A guilty verdict could also lead to the reallocation of previous titles, a prospect that would be welcomed by clubs like Liverpool and Arsenal, who have finished as runners-up to City in recent years. The consequences could extend beyond the pitch. Financially, the club could face heavy fines and the loss of commercial partnerships. Reputationally, the damage could be even more significant, with the club’s global brand potentially taking a severe hit.

Last month, the club was fined £2.09 million for consistently starting matches and resuming play after half-time later than the scheduled time. The club acknowledged these 22 breaches, which occurred without sufficient reason. Should the club be found guilty, the ramifications could be severe and wide-ranging. On the sporting front, Manchester City could face significant penalties, including point deductions, potential title stripping, or even relegation from the Premier League, albeit the chances of the latter two are slim. The potential sanctions could also lead to a reallocation of previous titles, which would come as music to… http://dlvr.it/TBqyR1 | nexxtgen.pro

Great coverage in Estate Agent Today with our analysis of the most recommended national estate agency brand. Fine & Country is #1, followed by Knight Frank, Bridgfords, and eXp UK. It's worth considering that F&C is just over two decades old and made up of local independent agencies, and eXp is a total newcomer to the UK and made up of self-employed agents. It's also nice to see two brands I ran taking the top two slots. Full article and analysis in the comments. We Are Unchained #recommendation #nps #linkedinleadbetter #unchainedsocial #unchainedfriday
