[FREE WORKSHOP] How to use story selling

What’s up everyone!!

This week I’ve got something up my sleeve that I think will absolutely blow you away!

People ask me all the time, “What’s your secret sauce, Russell??”

Well… That’s EXACTLY what I’m going to reveal to you in this FREE STORY SELLING WORKSHOP!!

For the next few days, I’ll be sending you links to a free Story Selling Workshop, where you’ll discover how to sell more, convert better, and never feel “sales-y” again.

This is the secret weapon I use… And I’m guessing your competitors are using it too! So you need to know this!!

Here’s the BIG IDEA: The best marketers don’t “sell.” They tell stories that make people WANT to buy.

It’s not about pressure, tactics, or gimmicks, it’s about leading people to the “a-ha” moment where they convince themselves.

SIGN UP FOR THE FREE STORY SELLING WORKSHOP HERE >>

Here’s what you’ll see on Day 1 of the workshop…

✔ Why stories break down resistance (and how to craft yours)

✔ The #1 mistake that kills conversions - and how to avoid it

✔ How to replace “selling” with simple, powerful storytelling

It all starts with Lesson 1 of the Workshop! Are you in??

SIGN UP FOR THE FREE STORY SELLING WORKSHOP HERE >>

Stay tuned… tomorrow, we go even deeper into this game-changing strategy. (Spoiler… I’m going to be talking about the epiphany bridge!)

See you in the workshop!

Russell Brunson

P.S. Don’t forget, you’re just one funnel away…

What’s the CEO’s role in M&A? A leader’s guide

Leading Off

Share this email

ESSENTIALS FOR LEADERS AND THOSE THEY LEAD

Brought to you by Alex Panas, global leader of industries, & Axel Karlsson, global leader of functional practices and growth platforms

Welcome to the latest edition of Leading Off. We hope you find our insights useful. Let us know what you think at Alex_Panas@McKinsey.com and Axel_Karlsson@McKinsey.com.

—Alex and Axel

Will 2025 bring a resurgence in M&A after three years of sluggish dealmaking? These days, uncertainty is the new normal in M&A. New McKinsey analysis finds that most companies are being cautious, as geopolitical tensions and postpandemic economic shocks continue to reverberate across sectors and regions. Yet there are also some signs that M&A activity may accelerate soon. As the year in dealmaking begins to take shape, we look at the most important roles leaders can play in the M&A process to create value and growth at their companies.

AN IDEA

An image linking to the web page “CEOs in M&A: Five actions only the chief executive can take” on McKinsey.com.

Do what only the CEO can do

The question of which tasks CEOs and senior leaders should do themselves and which to delegate to others is age-old—and depends on the area of the business. When it comes to M&A, there are some duties that only the top boss can fulfill. McKinsey’s Anna Mattsson and Mieke Van Oostende have identified five “must do” activities for CEOs to manage before, during, and after a deal to improve the odds of success. These include defining M&A priorities while establishing the overall long-term corporate strategy and spearheading large, transformational deals while assigning other leaders to oversee smaller deals. “This will mean leaning in at all phases—for instance, helping to convince the target company to enter the deal, defining the integration strategy and the pace and degree of change, and taking any other steps required to get the deal over the line,” the authors say.

A BIG NUMBER

12%

That’s the percent increase in the value of global deals over $25 million from 2023 to 2024; the total value rose to $3.4 trillion, up from $3.1 trillion the year before. The number of companies changing hands also increased (by 8 percent, from 7,206 in 2023 to 7,784 last year), and the average global deal value rose 4 percent (to $443 million, up from $424 million). McKinsey’s Jake Henry and Mieke Van Oostende observe that more favorable macroeconomic conditions and the financial strength of corporations in the market for deals could lead to sharply accelerated M&A activity in 2025. But they caution that fresh geopolitical, trade, or other policy-related changes could slow dealmaking momentum, “like an unseasonable frost landing on a green shoot.”

A QUOTE

“Culture is everyone’s business, and getting full commitment from across the organizations involved in the deal is the only way to achieve sustained value creation and transformation through M&A.”

That’s McKinsey’s Emily O’Loughlin, Kameron Kordestani, and Rebecca Kaetzler on why managing culture is critical in dealmaking. McKinsey research indicates that to do this well, leaders should focus on three steps in their deal discussions: diagnosing how work gets done, setting cultural priorities, and hard-wiring and supporting cultural change. The authors say it’s important for leaders to take these actions early in the process and involve key stakeholders from both the parent and target companies, including employees, HR leaders, senior executives, and boards of directors.

A SPOTLIGHT INTERVIEW

An image linking to the web page “XPO’s Brad Jacobs on building businesses through M&A” on McKinsey.com.

Acquiring companies is not such a difficult task in its own right—for leaders, the bigger challenge is in bringing two organizations together. That’s the view of Brad Jacobs, CEO of the technology company QXO and executive chairman of the logistics company XPO, who has built several billion-dollar companies and led some 500 deals over four decades. “The real work starts after you own the business: integrating the companies, harmonizing the cultures, merging the technology and shared services, and getting the customers and employees of the business you acquired to buy into your vision,” Jacobs says in an interview with McKinsey Senior Partner Andy West . Jacobs also emphasizes that communication is key to successful integration. “You have to communicate through many channels: digitally, live, on Zoom calls, in town halls, in writing. And the communication must be precise,” he says. “If you have a large organization with thousands of employees, it’s a tall order to get everyone to understand where we’re going and how we’re going to get there.”

HOLD ON TIGHT

An image linking to the web page “Retain, integrate, thrive: A strategy for managing talent during M&A transactions” on McKinsey.com.

Employees generate value for an organization in so many different ways—from those who are in charge of critical processes and important initiatives to the influencers who motivate others to do their best. They can also be hard to keep once a merger closes, which is why retaining valuable employees after an acquisition is an essential responsibility for leaders. McKinsey’s Emily O’Loughlin and John Chartier say that leaders can retain top talent during all phases of dealmaking by actively identifying high-potential performers, keeping employees focused before and during integration of the companies, and continuing to engage high performers after the deal closes. “When looking at talent in both the parent and target companies, they should consider employees at all levels, not just in the first few management layers,” the authors say. “We all know people who play vital organizational roles without lofty titles or dozens of direct reports.”

Lead by leaning into dealmaking.

Sporting goods: Explore the latest trends

On McKinsey Perspectives

DELIVERING ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS ON THE DAY’S NEWS

Brought to you by Alex Panas, global leader of industries, & Axel Karlsson, global leader of functional practices and growth platforms

Shifts in sporting goods

In the news

•

Pajama pants as sportswear. After decades of form-fitting leggings and tops, women’s athletic apparel is trending toward looser styles that more closely match their everyday looks, The New York Times reports. Sportswear business owners, women athletes, and personal trainers all say that women are prioritizing personal style and ease of movement at the gym. In that spirit, many brands—including large US retailers—are offering more relaxed fits, such as waffle T-shirts, long tunics, and cargo pants. [NYT]

•

Generation Active. Among younger adults, wellness is a core part of their identities that, according to Entrepreneur, shapes their spending and lifestyle choices. In fact, Gen Zers and millennials make up 80% of today’s gym members, according to a study of 12,000 people in 22 countries. To connect with health-conscious Gen Z consumers, fitness-based businesses can build trust through a vibrant, storytelling-focused online presence (since Gen Z usually explores brands through digital channels), give consumers a range of payment options, and provide flexible offerings, including virtual workout sessions. [Entrepreneur]

In McKinsey’s latest Sporting Goods Report Consumer Survey, 81% of respondents said they attended in-person fitness classes in the past year.

On McKinsey.com

•

Slowing growth. 2024 was a tough year for the sporting goods industry, with companies tested by softer growth opportunities, ongoing inflation, and careful consumer spending. Yet despite these obstacles, the industry maintained an annual growth rate of 7% from 2021 to 2024, according to McKinsey Senior Partners Becca Coggins and Gemma D’Auria and their coauthors. From 2024 to 2029, the rate of growth is expected to settle at a more modest 6% per year, prompted by slowdowns in Asia–Pacific, Latin America, and Western Europe.

•

Empowering consumers. For sporting goods executives, reaching physically inactive consumers will likely be high on this year’s agenda. Globally, there are 1.8 billion people—equivalent to twice the size of India’s adult population—who fall short of meeting WHO’s recommended levels of physical activity. Some sporting goods leaders have already taken steps to encourage consumers to become more physically active, but it’s a sizable opportunity for the entire industry. See the report, Sporting Goods 2025—The new balancing act: Turning uncertainty into opportunity, for more on the critical themes that could shape the sporting goods sector in 2025.

TIMELESS INSIGHTS—AND WHY THEY’RE AS RELEVANT AS EVER

Brought to you by Alex Panas, global leader of industries, & Axel Karlsson, global leader of functional practices and growth platforms

Welcome to the latest edition of McKinsey Classics. We hope you find our perspectives useful. Let us know what you think at Alex_Panas@McKinsey.com and Axel_Karlsson@McKinsey.com.

March 2025

In honor of the 60th birthday of McKinsey Quarterly, the McKinsey Classics newsletter is dedicating a full year to enduring Quarterly articles that were ahead of their time. Enjoy, and check out other celebration highlights such as special themed issues and bonus digital features.

Closing the gender gap: A missed opportunity for new CEOs

CEO transitions present a crucial opportunity for companies to support—and boost—gender diversity in leadership roles. Management reshuffles can serve as “unfreezing moments” to dramatically improve women’s representation at senior levels. Yet as the authors of this McKinsey Quarterly classic observe, CEOs often don’t take advantage of this window or opportunity. Why?

The stagnation at the top is often the result of two issues. First, diversity eventually hits a ceiling, the authors find. CEOs hired in industries with more diverse teams often don’t make as many gains on diversity as those in less diverse industries, and more diverse companies tend to become complacent over time. Second, CEOs who are hired externally are more susceptible to unconscious bias. This gives internally hired CEOs an edge—they already know where the talent is, which can help ward off the biases of other senior executives.

To make lasting progress in advancing gender diversity at the top, new CEOs can focus their efforts on a few critical areas, including clearly communicating the strategic imperative of a diverse top team, accelerating women’s advancement through the pipeline, and then ensuring that women are supported and helped to succeed. For more, read Carolyn Dewar, Kurt Strovink, and Michael Birshan’s 2018 classic, “Closing the gender gap: A missed opportunity for new CEOs.”

How women can steer toward growing industries and companies

New McKinsey analysis shows that women are not amassing as many on-the-job skills and experiences as men—and are less likely than men to be promoted to their first manager role. This advancement gap represents a “broken rung” for women, which only worsens over time. But the broken rung is far from insurmountable. Read our latest insights on the topic from Kweilin Ellingrud , Lareina Yee , and María del Mar Martínez . And for more on the steps women can take to build their experience capital and take control of their careers, read the authors’ new book, The Broken Rung: When the Career Ladder Breaks for Women—and How They Can Succeed in Spite of It.

Mobile System Design Interview

The first drafts of these books are complete, and we’re looking for reviewers to help make them better.

If you’re interested in serving as a reviewer, we’d love to hear from you! Please send an email to hi@bytebytego.com with a brief introduction, specify which book you’d like to review, and include a link to your LinkedIn profile. Thank you for considering this opportunity!

Please note that this is a volunteer position (not paid). As a token of our appreciation, we’ll include your name in the book’s acknowledgments if you help with the review process.

What is MCP?

Why is everyone talking about it? Let’s take a closer look.

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a new system introduced by Anthropic to make AI models more powerful.

It is an open standard (also being run as an open-source project) that allows AI models (like Claude) to connect to databases, APIs, file systems, and other tools without needing custom code for each new integration.

MCP follows a client-server model with 3 key components:

Host: AI applications like Claude that provide the environment for AI interactions so that different tools and data sources can be accessed. The host runs the MCP Client.
MCP Client: The MCP client is the component inside an AI model (like Claude) that allows it to communicate with MCP servers. For example, if the AI model wants data from PostgreSQL, the MCP client formats the request into a structured message to send to the MCP Server
MCP Server: This is the middleman that connects an AI model to an external system like PostgreSQL, Google Drive, or an API. For example, if Claude analyzes sales data from PostgreSQL, the MCP Server for PostgreSQL acts as the connector between Claude and the database.

MCP has five core building blocks (also known as primitives). They are divided between the client and server.

For the clients, the building blocks are Roots (secure file access) and Sampling (ask the AI for help with a task such as generating a DB query).
For the servers, there are Prompts (instructions to guide the AI), Resources (Data Objects that the AI can reference) and Tools (functions that the AI can call such as running a DB query).

How to Design a System like Instagram

Here’s a simple step-by-step approach to build the core functionality:

Users perform an action on their device like tapping the like button, uploading a picture, or following another user.
The request goes through a gateway to the backend server built using frameworks like Django, Express, or anything else.
The data is stored in the database.
- Structured data such as user profiles, comments, and relationships are stored in relational databases like Postgres.
- Data items requiring high write throughput such as user feeds and activity logs can be stored in eventually consistent databases like Cassandra.
- Frequently accessed data is stored in cache (for example, Redis or Memcached).
Images and videos are stored in an object storage and corresponding metadata is stored in the database.
Asynchronous tasks like sending notifications are sent to a queue.
Background workers (like Celery) retrieve the task from the queue and perform the necessary processing.
Celery worker also performs the necessary updates in the databases.

Over to you: What else will you add to build an Instagram-like system?

How to load your websites at lightning speed

Check out these 8 tips to boost frontend performance:

Compression
Compress files and minimize data size before transmission to reduce network load.
Selective Rendering/Windowing
Display only visible elements to optimize rendering performance. For example, in a dynamic list, only render visible items.
Modular Architecture with Code Splitting
Split a bigger application bundle into multiple smaller bundles for efficient loading.
Priority-Based Loading
Prioritize essential resources and visible (or above-the-fold) content for a better user experience.
Pre-loading
Fetch resources in advance before they are requested to improve loading speed.
Tree Shaking or Dead Code Removal
Optimize the final JS bundle by removing dead code that will never be used.
Pre-fetching
Proactively fetch or cache resources that are likely to be needed soon.
Dynamic Imports
Load code modules dynamically based on user actions to optimize the initial loading times.
