PURAVAI Is the purest prepackaged storage water in the emergency preparedness market. When it comes to emergency storage water, even one little bacterium in the water can multiply over time and become billions of bacteria. It's called CFUs (or Colony Forming Units of Bacteria). Tested independently by one of the top labs in the world, our biggest competitor measured in at 3,330 CFUs per mL, yet when PURAVAI was tested by the same lab, the result: ZERO CFUs. That's a HUGE deal because what that means is your PURAVAI water is able to remain safe to drink, even decades later!!

EP. 43 Veterans Issues and Resources Jan 11, 2018

Show notes

High Caliber Community All founders of High Caliber Community (HC2) are veterans or currently serving. We have all been in the Armed Forces long enough to recognize the need for the services HC2 will provide. Our ultimate goal is to decrease the rising rate of veteran suicide by helping vets find other vets and locate resources, without having to search large databases or read through a great deal of content before realizing a specific service may not even be available to them. The veteran suicide rate is increasing at a devastating pace; we all see this problem every day, and many of us relate to it personally either by our own experiences or by the loss of loved ones. We are fighting the war against veteran suicide; High Caliber Community is designed to be a fighting force to help win that battle We bring a variety of talent to the team; leaders in the military and in civilian life, running non-profit organizations, volunteering to help Veterans in America, starting up veteran-owned businesses, serving in elite positions in the military and as a contractor. Each member of the core team is dedicated to creating an exceptional service for the veteran community. We are committed to giving back to those who have served and leaving an impact, in a significant way. Warrior Built The mission of “Warrior Built” seeks to honor the service and sacrifice of combat veterans and wounded service members who served our country by providing vocational and recreational opportunities. Vocational and recreational opportunities break through walls and foster an environment of healing, where great memories are born and new support systems are formed. “Built” by combat veterans for combat veterans “Built” on our core values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment “Built” with the unrelenting drive to make a difference “Built” remembering the Warrior Ethos we learned serving our country PURPOSE The purpose of our foundation is to provide new motivation, camaraderie and to spark their imagination while most importantly offering a release to cope with similar difficulties in a positive and therapeutic way. We do this in a safe, fun and supportive environment all while providing much needed different forms of therapy. “Building Spirits, Souls and Machines” OBJECTIVES Vocational therapy is conducted in our “Warrior Built Garage” where we give combat veterans the opportunity to be exposed to the world of fabrication and the mechanics of different types of vehicles. Whether it is an off-road vehicle, race car, classic car or motorcycle, we give them a chance to figure out if they want a future in the fabrication and mechanic industry. Recreational therapy consists of attending different events that fuel the motivation and adrenalin for our combat veterans. We do this by bringing them to events such as dirt bike races, drag racing, off-road racing, concerts, and planning camping trips to the sand dunes, off-road parks, rivers, lakes etc… We also help combat veterans pursue their desires to enter and compete in different types of action sports and races such as the Baja 1000 off-road race. The camaraderie and motivation that sparks from these projects we build and the events we attend have changed the lives of the combat veterans who have given so much to our country.

EP. 41 Communicating to the Masses Lessons From a Spy Dec 28, 2017

Show notes

Pete Turner guides organizations in developing and implementing content-based marketing strategies. These strategies are achieved by linking the tactical demands of the market with corporate goals/outcomes. The methods he employs were developed while advising US govt elements in conflict zones. Through hundreds of interviews with industry leaders, Pete come to realize, the same "Ground Truth" focused practices that worked in Afghanistan, Iraq, Bosnia etc. also apply repeatedly and reliably to goals and outcomes in corporate settings. In all cases, creating desired emotional responses within the target audience leads towards consistently advancing market dominance. Quality content and how it's presented, inspires clients/customers in ways that cannot be matched. Trading influence with industry peers and external influencers enhances the cultural impact of a company. NOTHING is more powerful than creating an externally-verified cultural change in one's favor. The tactical base required to leverage a robust content-centric approach requires elements including: Branding, Voice, Influence, Digital Strategy, Social Media, SEO, SEM, etc. Pete analyzes and improves an organization’s ability to apply the correct tactics in a manner that creates constant tactical wins that feed strategic requirements. Pete authored peer-reviewed and editorial board papers on topics like: "Transition Operations: A Discussion with 29 Articles," "On the Advancement of Human Rights: Exploring the Ethical Pitfalls of Female Engagement Operations," and "Promoting Political Development through Action Research: Evidence from Rural Afghanistan."
