I'm Sean, and I'm a Machine Learning Scientist for AWS

I apply a machine learning and Big Data technology to personalize our customer support

we will be able to quickly recommend relevant solutions video to the customer

Any engineer or scientist who

have a desire to serve customers and want to develop

customer facing products. I feel AWS support is really the best place to be.

The OA Minute, Episode 3, "GrantSolutions Center of Excellence." - Duration: 2:27.

Hi, I'm Renee Lobanovskyy and I work for the GrantSolutions Center of Excellence within

the ACF Office of Administration.

GrantSolutions is an OMB nationally designated line of business that provides end-to-end

innovative grants management solutions across the federal government.

We have a unique culture at GrantSolutions, that is, agencies that use GrantSolutions services

are partners and our combined mission success is what drives priorities.

This collaborative culture is evident in how partners are encouraged to work with each

other to find government wide solutions.

By working to fully understand each program, GrantSolutions is able to support partners

in achieving efficiencies and removing redundancies.

It is this mindset that enables us to leverage emerging technologies to solve common problems.

For example, last year by collaborating with a partner in finding ways to use existing

data to improve workflow efficiencies, GrantSolutions developed Business Intelligence Dashboards.

These Dashboards enable Partners to quickly see where opportunities for improvements exist.

The results were immediate for one particular partner; who was able to reduce the number

of awards put on restriction by more than 67% over the previous fiscal year.

GrantSolutions' collaborative mindset includes other government agencies as well as private

sector collaborators.

As new technology and ideas emerge, GrantSolutions strives to improve the ability to measure

and increase the return on Federal grant investments.

One area of innovation we have been working on is the HHS ReImagine/ReInvent Grants Management

Initiative.

RGM is a collaborative effort between GrantSolutions, NIH/eRA, Grants.gov,

PSC, other financial assistance programs and our partners to streamline the entire grants

management lifecycle.

It is always exciting to see such great work being done at HHS.

Having been a recipient of financial awards like the Pell and Academic Competiveness Grants,

I am personally invested in delivering a smarter and more effective government, and I know

that is only possible if partnership continues to be a priority.

Thank you.

What it's like to build software at Amazon Web Services? - Duration: 2:09.

That's what we all come to work every day for. It's not just turning the knobs

it's really kind of inventing your way out of problems that are

at a scale that nobody else has.

Day in and day out we ask ourselves the question how can we do this better?

My name is Sunil Nirmal and I work for a team called AWS Trusted Advisor.

We build a service that analyzes a customer's AWS resources and provides them with

options on how to prevent security issues and how to have cost savings. I'm Gary Gross I'm the Director of Software Engineering

Training and Business Operations for AWS Support.

We're the front line so these roles are the ones are going to be building and delivering the software working directly with our software engineers and

setting the roadmap the strategy

how we execute on our goals and ultimately

delivering for customers. So it's mission-critical.

A lot of our work too is working across the AWS services because these checks which are basically

areas of best practices or improvement require a lot of collaboration with the different service teams like EC2

DynamoDB, S3, RDS all the rest of them.

I'm Alex, I'm a Developer a part of

AWS Support, specifically the Trusted Advisor team. I feel myself growing

both as a leader and my technical chops on a day to day basis

The leaders are genuinely interested in our development.

I'm working on challenging problems every day

and I'm working with a group of super talented people who genuinely care about our customers

I'm Wynter, I'm a Software Developer for AWS Support.

I probably spend 40 percent of my job focused on hiring

retention and people development. If you've had a chance to read our Amazon leadership principles

they're probably the most important things that drive who were trying to hire. We're looking for an Amazonian heart. Basic software development

chops are a must for our software developers and for our data scientists a good background and machine learning

but beyond that I think it's really important to be interested in invested in the customer experience.

Focus on people focus on our customers have fun to make history

How to Determine Your Most Profitable Services - Duration: 6:09.

Welcome to Entrepreneurship by the Numbers, where we help unlock the potential of your business with data-driven metrics

Hi, I'm Gareth Pronovost and in this video

I am going to be showing you the exact steps you need to take in

Order to determine which of the things you're doing in your business that are

Costing you money

And which of them are actually producing a lot of revenue and profit for you. Now this video is

specifically for the business owner who feels like they can't stop working in the business

I'm sure you've heard this before, but the saying is you want to work on your business not in your business and

Many many small business owners and entrepreneurs get stuck working in their business and the reason is because they are

They're doing too much. They find clients (and this might be you) find clients that

Have new needs and have additional wants and so they try to provide those

Clients with those solutions and before you know it that business that started with one or two offerings is now

Trying to do 20 different things and service everybody this causes two major problems for your business. Problem number one is

You don't have a consistent marketing message anymore because when you're doing 20 things how in the world can you explain?

It succinctly what it is you do that's problem one problem two is

When you're doing 20 different things

you don't

You don't have a standardized procedure and a way to scale on those 20 things

Because you're not focusing on just building one or two products or services

You're just scattered across the board. And so this template that I'm gonna jump into here is gonna

Walk you through the steps that you need to take as an entrepreneur to identify which of those products and services are actually

Producing and which are just wasting time all right first things first

I have included an author information tab here if you'd like to stay connected

I welcome you to please reach out and connect with me on the channels that I've provided here for you

But jumping into what this is all about you've got four different items

That you need to know for each product or service that you offer and we are gonna automatically calculate two different

Calculations, there's a difference between them depending on what type of business owner you want to be or are

So without bogging this down

I'm just going to go through the four inputs first of all you're gonna have the name of the product or service

Then you're gonna have your revenue and you'll see in the notes down here below that the revenue should be the average

Dollar amount that you are charging less any discounts that you apply on average

Cost of goods sold if you'll remember back to accounting cost of goods sold are those

Costs that are directly related to the product of the

Production of your product or service do not include overhead do not include things like rent

Or exec salaries things like that

Lastly you're gonna need to know the time to complete in hours

The time to complete this task and I'll tell you why I've included that in a second so I have some

Fictitious example data that I'm going to just paste in here. So here we go - and you'll see that we've got two things calculating

We've got a gross margin percent. This is the

margin percentage

Before accounting for overhead and all of those other

Expenses and then you've got your gross margins in

dollars per hour now

I spoke earlier briefly about two types of entrepreneurs first type

Type one are those entrepreneurs who want to grow a big booming business

Those entrepreneurs are going to want to focus on gross margin percent

Because the booming business hires employees and you've already taken the cost of those

employees into account here in the cost of goods sold and

So this margin percent you want to focus on the biggest margin percent that is what's going to give you the biggest bang for

Your buck as you hire more employees

Now the second type of entrepreneur is the solopreneur and there's nothing wrong with this at all

I think it's a fantastic style where you want to just build some financial freedom

You don't want to build a big company. You don't need employees reporting to you

Maybe you've got a few but nothing massive for those of you who fall in that second bucket

you just want some financial freedom, and that's why you're doing this business I

Urge you to look at column F

Gross margin in dollars per hour the reason is you need to get not the biggest bang for your buck

But the biggest bang for your time and so for those of you. I would say look at margin per hour. Let's suppose

That's the type of entrepreneur you are you can come in here and sort this

Z to A is going to give you biggest to smallest

Now you see that in this case if this were a real business. I would recommend focusing on

Services 1 & 5 because those are the ones that are giving you the biggest dollar per hour in

terms of efficiency if you were the other type of business you could also come in here and sort this one largest to smallest and

Here we have

service 3 & 4 are the most

Profitable in terms of percentage so as you hire new employees you will continue to grow at the most profitable rate

It's very common that these things don't align so make sure that you know

Which type of entrepreneur you are you know which type of business you want to build that way you get this right the first time?

Alright as always

I hope you found that to be really useful if you did be sure to click subscribe so you don't miss out on future

Videos and in the meantime best of luck as you continue to grow your empire. Thanks
