@natelagos Glad I snagged one before you sold out

It’s called creative strategy

@drewfallon12 “While maintaining composure” 🤦🏻‍♂️

@SchroedsBiz @HelloTidalwave Very smart

Is a 3PL a media company? Can be. This month, @HelloTidalwave launched a new service to clients called "Content Pass". We make professional behind the scenes content for your brand. Thesis: Give our brands another tool in the toolbelt to succeed on Facebook. They sell more stuff, we ship more stuff, we all win. Creative fatigue is higher than ever, and this style of content historically has worked well. If you use a 3PL, this style of content is either not possible, or prohibitively expensive. We charge $200/mo (now). Our upside is ... your ad pops off and I can ship thousands of incremental packages.

Do temporary, event-specific extensions, not blanket 23-hour service. Tie it to World Cup match days and fan-zone areas, require extra security and responsible-service plans, add rideshare/transit staging, collect police/EMS incident data nightly, and sunset it automatically after the tournament. That addresses the safety risk while without pretending there’s no commerce upside.

Zero need for bars to be open 23 hours per day. The downside of this policy far outweighs the upside.

@QuintonLucasKC Or here’s a thought …who drinks at 6am? Degenerates. Maybe push that to 8am and extend bars late night hours a few . Everyone enjoys an extra hour at night . I’m no politician , but this is your no tax on tips opportunity to gain some easy goodwill and you’re missing it.

I’ve proposed keeping bars at normal hours this summer: What do you think, Kansas City? I tend to believe with openings at 6am, you can still enjoy yourself quite a bit.

Just read the comments of your constituents here for a pulse check on your policy. Pretty instant feedback people want more commerce vs. less. Open bars aren’t just about more fun. More $ for KC small business bar and restaurant owners, more $ for Uber drivers struggling to pay ends meat. A once in a lifetime World Cup event seems like an absolute no brainer to make an exception.

@BlackThanos22 With the same hours as today.

I respect fun. I respect freedom. But, Kansas City doesn't need bars operating 23 hours. I've introduced an item that would leave bar operating hours to their standard operating times (3AM some; 1:30 others; etc) during the World Cup--rather than 23 hours permitted by the state.

@katsuxbt Smart use of AI

Mark Cuban says one of his companies is saving $50K/month using an AI agent that just takes pictures "One of my Shark Tank companies is called RebelCheesedotcom, they sell vegan cheese and ship it all over the world and they like a lot of companies that ship products in boxes" "You know there's different size boxes for UPS or DHL and there's a different price to ship to a different zone, also they don't ever charge you the right price" "So they wrote a little agent that took a picture of the box when it's getting ready to ship and determined the size looked at the price list, look at the invoice, took a picture of the invoice, compared them and when they were different created the credit request and are saving $50,000 a month and it's all automated they don't have to touch it"
