  • Proven Steps That Will Improve Your Front Line Performance
    2026/02/09

    What if improving front line performance—not more marketing or new leads—was the fastest way to grow your business worth?

    If you're feeling pressure to grow revenue while controlling costs, this episode speaks straight to that tension. You'll hear how leaders in hospitality use front line performance, personalization, and smart systems to capture revenue that's already there—while creating better customer experiences and stronger loyalty. The same thinking applies to any business with customer-facing teams and real growth goals.

    What you'll gain from listening:

    • How front line performance directly impacts revenue and loyalty, without turning your team into pushy salespeople

    • What it really takes to evolve from a services model to SaaS, while keeping your culture and your people intact

    • Where AI disruption actually adds value today, helping managers coach better and make faster, data-driven decisions

    Play the episode to spot practical front line performance ideas you can use right now to increase revenue and strengthen your business worth.

    Check out:

    • ~10:30 – Unlocking revenue through front line performance
      Where the conversation digs into how connecting frontline teams to real guest needs drives incremental revenue without hurting the experience—and why this applies far beyond hospitality.

    • ~28:00 – AI disruption that actually works at the front line
      A practical discussion on how AI is being used to analyze performance data, deliver coaching insights, and improve results—without replacing people or overcomplicating the system.

    • ~44:00 – The real challenge of moving from services to SaaS
      A candid breakdown of the cultural and identity shifts required to transition from a services model to SaaS, including what leaders often underestimate and how to bring the team along.

    About Geoffrey Toffetti

    Geoffrey Toffetti is the CEO of Frontline Performance Group (FPG), based in Florida. The firm partners with over 2,500 hotels across 120+ countries, helping them drive millions in incremental revenue. His personal journey in hospitality started humbly, as a car valet at a Florida hotel.

    Today, Geoffrey leads FPG, where they work with top brands like Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt, among others. He has guided the company through strategic growth, including the acquisitions of the company's primary competitors—Drake Beil in the U.S. and TSA Solutions in Asia, the latter during the height of the COVID-19 crisis.

    Geoffrey can share insights on conversion from a services business to SaaS, global expansion, leading a remote workforce, how leaders can build resilience by making bold yet calculated decisions, staying agile in unpredictable markets, and building a corporate tribe rather than a team. FPG is always pushing forward and he excited to say their next bold move is just around the corner.

  • Your Digital Assets and How to Protect Them
    2026/02/02

    Is your business worth more than your physical inventory… because of the digital assets you don't even realize you own?

    If you're like most CEOs, you've delegated websites, domains, ad accounts, logins, and even AI tools to other people—and assumed everything was automatically "yours." But this episode is a wake-up call: your digital assets are some of the most valuable (and vulnerable) parts of your business, and losing control of them can create chaos during growth, vendor changes, or a future sale.

    Paige Wiese breaks down how to protect what you've built before it becomes a costly blind spot.

    By listening, you'll walk away with:

    • A clearer understanding of what counts as critical digital assets—from domains and hosting to analytics, SaaS tools, and intellectual property

    • Practical questions to ask vendors and agencies so you don't get locked out of accounts you paid for

    • A smarter way to prepare your company for scaling, exiting, or AI disruption by organizing and safeguarding your digital footprint

    Hit play now to learn how protecting your digital assets today can increase your business worth tomorrow—and save you from painful surprises later.

    Check out:

    • 5:40 – The most important questions to ask before hiring an agency
      Paige explains how CEOs can avoid losing ownership of domains, ad accounts, and logins right from the start.

    • 12:15 – The hidden danger of email and asset transfer during an exit or sale
      A practical discussion on why business emails, history, and contacts become a major issue when transitioning ownership.

    • 21:30 – How AI tools are becoming the newest digital asset risk
      Paige shares why companies need policies around AI accounts now—before employees unknowingly train tools on proprietary data.
