Robin opens the group coaching call, invites wins/gratitudes, and asks attendees to share what they’re working on. Ralph shares he’s busy gigging and nearing his goal of playing every weekend; Robin acknowledges his momentum. Ralph describes band politics and tension between two bands (one not appreciating keyboards), plus bickering/power plays. Ralph recounts a rehearsal conflict: cover song arrangement arguments and wasted time; Robin discusses challenges of communicating musical vision. Robin notes for cover bands it often works best to stick closer to the record since audiences expect familiar versions. Ralph asks about new Street Team dashboard/task-like features; Robin suggests using Conversations to work through replies rather than the overview. They try (and struggle) to click into a contact record from a conversation thread to update email; conclude Ralph may need to search the member record separately. Ralph reviews Meta ad results: link clicks but 0 website leads; he’s not seeing mentorship calendar bookings despite list signups. Robin suspects tracking/optimization issues and advises Ralph to meet with Jared to update campaign setup so conversions are properly tracked. Calendar/booking troubleshooting: they review connected calendars and conflict-checking settings; Robin explains busy/free status in Google Calendar matters. They test the mentorship booking link in an incognito window and confirm conflicts block availability correctly. Robin invites Ant to introduce himself; Ant shares he’s in Long Beach (from Sacramento) and has shared stages with major artists. Ant and Robin discuss Minneapolis music legacy (Prince, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis); Ant expresses interest in visiting and attending First Avenue. Conversation shifts to NBA roster moves and Kings decisions; Ant mentions seeing Naz Reid in the Bahamas shortly after hearing trade news. Robin gives tips on First Avenue scheduling and touring seasons; they agree to reconnect on Ant’s potential Minneapolis trip and future coaching sessions.
