    The Truth About Influencer Marketing: Fake Engagement vs. Real ROI, With Sarah Saffari

    Influencer marketing can drive massive growth — or quietly drain your budget if you’re partnering with the wrong creators. In this episode, Sarah Saffari breaks down how brands can instantly identify fake engagement, spot inauthentic audiences, and predict campaign performance before spending a dollar. We dive into the data-driven strategies behind choosing creators who actually influence buying decisions instead of just looking popular online. You’ll learn how to evaluate creators beyond vanity metrics, recognize the biggest red flags in influencer partnerships, and scale campaigns that generate real ROI, real trust, and real sales. Whether you’re a brand owner, marketer, agency, or entrepreneur, this conversation will completely change the way you look at influencer marketing. Tune in to hear Sarah’s thoughts on: How can you predict results before running an influencer campaign? How can brands instantly detect inauthentic engagement? What type of influencers are the most likely to provide positive ROI?

    Why Your Best Sales Moments Aren’t Scalable (Yet), With Judy Tsuei

    Most founders and sales leaders have spent years building powerful instincts—how to read a room, build trust quickly, and know when to push or hold. But that hard-won insight stays trapped in their heads, nowhere in their systems, and nowhere their teams can access or replicate. In this conversation, Judy Tsuei breaks down how unconscious identity patterns shape sales behavior, why top performers close from a neurological state most people never intentionally cultivate, and how to extract the invisible methodology behind your best sales moments so it becomes teachable, scalable, and truly yours. This isn’t about scripts or surface-level tactics. It’s about understanding influence as identity. You’ll walk away with a new lens on how you sell—and a clear starting point for identifying and shifting your own unconscious sales patterns. Tune in to hear Judy’s thoughts on: You talk about a “hidden code” behind every sales conversation—what is actually happening beneath the surface that most founders completely miss? So many founders know what to say in sales, but still struggle to convert—what internal patterns or identity blocks are usually getting in the way? How does nervous system regulation show up in real-time during a sales conversation, and what does it look like when someone is unintentionally operating from dysregulation? For someone listening who feels like they’re constantly “leaving influence on the table,” what’s the first shift they can make to start showing up with more confidence and authority? And much, much more! @media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-2{margin-top:30px!important; margin-right:!important;margin-bottom:30px!important;margin-left:!important;}} Invitation From Our Guest Gain access to Judy Tsuei’s Executive Inner Blueprint Profile: https://inner-blueprint-reveal.lovable.app @media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-3{margin-top:30px!important; margin-right:!important;margin-bottom:30px!important;margin-left:!important;}} Connect With Our Guest Website: https://www.judytsuei.com Social Media LinkedIn Instagram .fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-1{width:100% !important;margin-top : 0px;margin-bottom : 70px;}.fusion-builder-column-1 > .fusion-column-wrapper {padding-top : 0px !important;padding-right : 0px !important;margin-right : 1.92%;padding-bottom : 0px !important;padding-left : 0px !important;margin-left : 1.92%;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-1{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-1 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}@media only screen and (max-width:640px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-1{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-1 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}} .fusion-body .fusion-flex-container.fusion-builder-row-2{ padding-top : 0px;margin-top : 0px;padding-right : 0px;padding-bottom : 0px;margin-bottom : 0px;padding-left : 0px;} The post Why Your Best Sales Moments Aren’t Scalable (Yet), With Judy Tsuei first appeared on The Influencer's Edge Podcast with Speaker Paul Ross.
