    Aug 10 2025

  • From Ticketing Chaos to Fan-First Drops: Michael Dodsworth of Fanfare on Building Fair, Hype-Proof Launches
    Aug 5 2025

    In this episode of Behavioral Profit, Debbie Longo sits down with Michael Dodsworth—founder and CEO of Fanfare, the platform engineered to rescue brands and fans from meltdown-prone product launches. After two decades battling midnight server crashes and scalper bots, Michael explains how he reverse-engineered Ticketmaster-style pain points into a “fair-play” system that rewards true loyalty instead of speed or spending power . We probe whether scarcity marketing genuinely deepens fandom or merely shifts profit to resellers, and Michael makes the case that transparent queues, data-driven VIP tiers, and under-market pricing create longer-term brand equity than gouging ever could . He also reveals how experiential commerce—think backstage-level perks or real-world pop-ups—turns a simple transaction into a memory that fans amplify for free on social media . Along the way we test the limits: Can legacy brands adopt sneaker-culture tactics without burning out their audience? Michael argues yes—if they curate halo products, respect supply-demand signals, and keep quality un-compromised . Whether you’re launching a new SaaS, a limited-edition tumbler, or the next stadium tour, this conversation shows how to turn hype into sustainable growth while keeping fans on your side.

  • Identity-First Branding: Turning Inner Truth into Market Impact with Katie Fitzgerald
    Aug 2 2025

    Brand strategist Katie FitzGerald joins Behavioral Profit to unpack why the fastest-growing companies often start by looking inward instead of chasing every algorithm shift. She explains her “identity-first” approach—using tools like Myers-Briggs and VARK—to craft marketing that mirrors who you are, sustains sales confidence, and outlasts cookie-cutter trends. We explore how personality-driven strategy prevents burnout, why clarity beats raw visibility, and where most executives’ sabotage growth by masking their real strengths. If you suspect one-size-fits-all templates are stalling your revenue, this conversation shows a more profitable path and offers practical first steps you can apply today.

  • Unlocking Success with Speaking Gigs: Interview with Leisa Reid
    Jul 17 2025

    Host Debbie Longo sits down with Leisa Reid, founder of Get Speaking Gigs Now, to unpack how a single signature talk can transform a business. Leisa walks through her shift from “hoping for referrals” to engineering a referral engine that books her—and her clients—consistently. You’ll hear exactly when she realized public speaking could out‑perform traditional marketing, the pivotal systems that moved her company to six figures, and the mindset required to stay visible without burning out. Debbie challenges Leisa on whether speaking is still worth it in today’s crowded market and presses for proof that “talk ready to rock” really converts. Leisa answers with concrete examples, sharing how she maximizes every stage appearance—from capturing leads on‑site to turning one gig into a cascade of future bookings—while still protecting family time and sanity. Together they debate the lure of hustle culture, the fine line between healthy peer pressure and shiny‑object syndrome, and how to decide which invitations to decline when you finally have options. If you’re serious about using the mic to grow revenue—or you’re skeptical it still works—this conversation delivers actionable strategies, cautionary truths, and a reminder that human connection is the ultimate differentiator in a digital age.
