  Speaker 2: Three or inspiring stories Today Juzzy Boy, for our first
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Canva has cracked over two hundred million active users as
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: it stares to prepare for a future public listening.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: Quite unbelievable to see the evolution of canvas from paint
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: two point zero to burto shube two point zero.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: So tell me what's going on here, all right, juzy way, Well,
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: as a straight let's be honest, it feels like we've
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: seen the growth of Canvas from its very very early days.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: It started back in twenty thirteen with a pretty bold
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: plan to take on Adobe with simple ways to design images.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Think about it your son's first birthday invitation or your
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: team's Christmas party.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: And since then it's also grown to become a way
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: to design presentations and resumes.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: And now juzzy Boy Cana has announced that it has
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: cracked over two hundred million active users.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Not only that, Beman, but Canvas set its annualized revenue
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: was now two and a half billion US dollars.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: And just by the bio juzzy Boy, according to my calculations,
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: that's up forty seven percent from the one point seven
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: bill just a year ago.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: But be man quite interesting that Canvas has made this
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: unscheduled financial update.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Well, it's all part of their plans to get the
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: investment market excited and.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Get into the rhythm of being a public company.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Uh huh, So what is the key learning here?
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Publicizing financial performance helps to build credibility with public market investors.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: As a private company, there's no requirement to share your
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: financial updates with anyone other than your.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Shareholders and maybe the tax office.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: HU. Many companies gunning for an IPO will publish financial
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: updates to help establish that trust in credibility.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: By showing transparency around revenue and profits and even customer metrics,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Canva can start to attract investors even before the IPO.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: On top of this, these updates can help create a
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: positive narrative around the company as well.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Canva releases information about revenue growth and customers, and
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: then they're essentially marketing themselves to potentially investors.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Now, this storytelling approach not only helps to generate a
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: bit of buzz, but also it can impact the IPO valuation.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Airbnb ditta before their IPO and they updated on
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: growth and number of listings and geographic expansion. So b Man,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Canva is wetting the appetite of public market investors with
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: their delicious growth and AI vision for the future.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: For our second story, Grilled, the Ossie Burger chain is
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: under a bit of scrutiny for finding a loophole to
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: pay thousands of workers below minimum industry rates.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Don't you dare speak badly about grild burgers? B man,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I will hear nothing of this, but tell me what okay?
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: So Grilled obviously, the Ossie Burger chain that specializes in
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: what they call healthy burgers.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Being ingredients of that HERBD Mayo Dip and Chiby's is
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: more protected than Colonel Sanders eleven Herbs Advices. Now.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Grill launched in two thousand and four and now has
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: around one hundred and seventy restaurants Australia wide and one
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: in semmyak Bali.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: But now be man Grill's being accused of paying thousands
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: of workers below minimum industry rates in its latest pay
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: deal you.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: See juz Boyd. Typically retail workers like Grilled staff are
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: paid according to.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Award rates, but this new deal is going away from
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: the award and focusing on their own enterprise agreement with
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: loaded rate.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: The union reckons that premium will disappear pretty quickly.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: And workers will actually dip below the award by July
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: next year.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: And this created the first ever strike action in the
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: fast food industry last weekend.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Wow. So what is the key learning here?
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Loaded rates are a method of calculating wages that combine
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: base pain with allowances and penalty rates into a single
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: rate and be Man. While this can simplify payroll for employers,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: it can often hide the true value for employees. Unions
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: think that despite getting ninety three percent of stuff agreeing
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: to the deal, it wasn't genuinely agreed to.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: And that's because Grill didn't explain the loaded rates properly
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: to their workers.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Meaning employees might be missing out on some benefits.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: And b Man Grilled eight the only ones accused of
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: using illegal loopholes to pay staff less.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Well, I remember Chocky Shop, Coco Black. They've been accused
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: of trying to pull a shifty on hundreds of workers.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Yep, we're talking pay rises of just one percent per year.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: And even Subway has been getting into the thick of it,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: losing a case at the Fair Work Commission.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: So now it'll be interesting to see whether Grilled staff
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: continue flipping those delicious burgers.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: For our third and final story, Tesla's shares jump twelve
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: percent after it recorded its third quarter earnings and announced
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: plans to launch a ride haling service in twenty twenty five.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Can't say there's anything surprising about crazily ambitious statements coming
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: from Elon Musk, So what is the story? Here.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Well, Tesla, of course, is the electric vehicle company with
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: a market cap of a wopp in six hundred and
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: eighty two billion US dollars.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: To put that into perspective, b man, it's worth more
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: than the total economy of Austria or Chile.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Now, juzzy way. Tesla's share price jump of twelve percent
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: has followed its third quarter earnings update. Yeah.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Even though Tesla's revenue didn't quite meet expectations, it announced
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: vehicle sales growth for twenty twenty five plans for a
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: lower cost electric vehicle.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: To top it all off, it also promised self driving
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: right hailing taxis to be launched in California and Texas
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: next year.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, man, we know Tesla's share price is down
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: fourteen percent compared to the beginning of the year.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: But now it looks like Tesla's shifting its attention in
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: a new direction to get investors excited again aka autonomous vehicles.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Remember that old chestnut.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: So what is the key leading here?
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: When competition gets tough, sometimes you need a personality shift
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: to really stand out.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but man, we know the electric vehicle market has
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: become more established with new players entering the mix and
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: giving tough competition to Tesla.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: In fact, Tesla's market share in the US has dropped
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: consistently for the last two quarters and is now below
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: fifty percent.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: So to bring it back to its glory days, Tesla
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: is shifting its focus and it's messaging towards new technology.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Specifically self driving vehicles and of course AI.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Why not and be man.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: This is the type of technology that it's hoping investors
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: will be very interested in too, as opposed to being
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: seen as just another electric vehicle company.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: And b Man kind of reminds me of when BlackBerry
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: went through a own rebrand.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: How often is BlackBerry on your mind, JUSSI boy, not
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: very often, But they ruled the mobile phone marker back
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: in the early twenty tens before they were beat out
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: by Apple and Samsung. Instead of doubling down on mobile phones,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: BlackBerry evolved and they picked up a new personality as
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: a security software.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: So now Tesla's future with self driving technology and AI
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: is the next big thing Flux today. If you fancy
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: yourself as being a bit of a smarty pants when
