Episode 306 - From Account Management to Professional Development: The Changing Nature of the Modern Payments Industry, with Lee Clifton, Acquired

In this episode, Glenbrook's Chris Uriarte and Drew Edmond sit down with Lee Clifton, COO of Acquired, to explore some often-overlooked developments in the payments industry. The conversation covers payments optimization, multiprocessor strategies, the current state and expectations of account management, and how AI tools are changing the way merchants and providers work with payments data. They also discuss the changing role of the “payments professional” and why ongoing education and industry engagement matter more than ever.

Episode 305 - Fanning the Flames: Glenbrook Answers your Payments Questions

We’ve had over 35,000 professionals complete a Glenbrook workshop, and we constantly hear from participants that they were surprised by how something in the industry works or a specific data point. How people think about payment systems is largely driven by how they use them as an individual consumer, and also influenced by where they sit in their career. One of the goals of our payments workshops is to add clarity to ambiguous industry terminology. We also allow ample time for interactive Q&A, and whether the workshop is in-person or virtual, we hear some questions over and over. In this episode, Debbie Bartoo surfaces some of our most frequently asked workshop questions and lets Russ Jones guide us through the answers.
