Chad Dern reposted thisChad Dern reposted thisOn Saturday night, the Good Karma Brands John Moser Children's Radiothon was honored by the Wisconsin Broadcasters Assn with the Small Market - Best Significant Community Impact award. Cale Zomer and I had the privilege of serving as Co-Coordinators for this year’s Radiothon, and it was an incredibly meaningful project to help lead. This event takes months of planning, coordination, and execution, all with the goal of supporting kids and families who need it most. While Cale and I helped coordinate the effort, this recognition truly belongs to the entire team at Good Karma Brands Beaver Dam. I'm incredibly grateful to be part of a team that believes in using our platforms to make a real impact in the community.

Chad Dern reposted thisChad Dern reposted thisThis past year, I had the opportunity to serve as President of the Sports Management Association, and I’m really proud of what we were able to accomplish together. As we wrap up with our final event, our annual bowling outing, it’s been great to reflect on the year. We grew to over 50 active members, attended events like the Timberwolves and Gophers volleyball games, and hosted a variety of awesome speakers from across the sports industry. During my time as President, we emphasized the power of networking within the club, creating opportunities for members to build meaningful connections with one another. A huge thank you to my executive board for all the time and effort they put in, none of this would have been possible without them. I’m excited to see what’s next for the Sports Management Association and grateful to have been part of its growth.

Chad Dern liked thisChad Dern liked thisWhat's one job that completely changed the direction of your career? I think almost everyone has one. The opportunity that helped you discover strengths you didn't know you had. The team that challenged you. The company that gave you a chance. At Steinhafels Furniture, that's what we hope to provide, whether you're interested in sales, delivery, customer service, distribution or countless other career paths. Your first role doesn't have to be your last. Sometimes it's just the beginning. Your Career. Grown Here.

Chad Dern liked thisChad Dern liked thisSo gosh darn proud of this team! At Madison West Steinhafels Furniture we are on protection plan training 2.0 this month! This is the second month we have taken the teams’ feedback, suggestions and challenges in selling and capturing our protection plan and turned it into a 45 min brain storm session. They are learning from each other, asking one another questions, providing advice in a non-threatening environment. Sometimes your teams don’t need to hear you (the manager) talk and train again. Sometimes your teams are competent and eager enough to take hold themselves - they just need a facilitator. Listen, plan and change. Do the plan. Leave your team to their own devices and trust them to meet your (really, their own) expectations! Taylor Kwas Chadwick Billy Chad Wyman

Chad Dern liked thisChad Dern liked thisEvery campaign is a team effort. I am so proud to have photographed this years Kohl's Back-to-School campaign. What I am most proud of isn’t a single frame, it’s the collaboration behind it. I loved being invoked throughout the entire process, from preproduction planning and creative development, to helping directing on set, and partnering with post production to being the final campaign to life. Working alongside producers, art directors, stylists, digital technicians, and talented crews is what makes these productions rewarding. Grateful to everyone who helped bring this campaign to life. #kohls #backtoschool AD: Lizzy Lovas Producer: Andrew Majca Brittany Sefiddashti Nicole Allison Stylists: Harley J.

Nationwide brands often mistake lead volume for quality, costing millions. A qualified lead in Florida differs from Minnesota due to seasonality, competition, and intent. Analysis of 2M+ home service leads shows national campaigns waste 37% of media spend with single quality thresholds. The solution: dynamic regional lead scoring. One brand increased booked jobs by 28% without raising lead volume by weighting job urgency, homeowner status, and local close rates. Stop optimizing for national CPL. Build a regional quality framework. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gNduzxv2
