On this episode of the Additive Insight podcast, we're joined by Major General Phil Prosser, who has served as a British Army officer and engineer for 33 years. 

In that time, General Prosser has operated primarily across engineering, logistics and supply chain, with tours in Afghanistan, Iraq and Kosovo, and a deployment to support the National Health Service’s Covid-19 effort in 2020. 

Through his current role as Director Joint Support in Defence Support, General Prosser is responsible for, among other things, building out supply chain resilience. This is increasingly bringing him into contact with additive manufacturing technology, with General Prosser joining the Additive Insight podcast to discuss the opportunities for AM in defence. 

Throughout the conversation, we touch on the MOD’s ongoing Project Tampa initiative, the development of digital part inventories, and the use of AM on the front lines.

In this episode of Supply Chain Decoded, we’re zooming out from inland trucking and straight into the ports with Tom Zeis, brand ambassador and founding team member at Port X Logistics. From launching a company with zero VC funding to navigating the chaos of the pandemic, Tom shares how Port X went from 10 trucks to a $200 million business in just five years.

We dive into what it takes to build a resilient drayage operation in an unpredictable world—tariffs, strikes, vessel delays, and all—and why true leadership starts with culture, heart, and trust. Tom unpacks the evolving role of tech in drayage, how Port X is using AI to streamline manual work, and why the days of treating drayage like an afterthought are long gone.

Plus, a few wing tour stories, a look at the ILA labor contract, and what’s really ahead for the U.S. port system.

Transloading - IL EDUCATION SERIES presented by IL AI AUDIO

In this episode of Supply Chain Decoded, host Jenni Ruiz sits down with Kara Smith Brown, founder and CRO of LeadCoverage, and author of the Amazon bestseller The Revenue Engine to break down what most supply chain companies get wrong about marketing and go-to-market strategies.

Kara shares how getting fired (and making babies) sparked her entrepreneurial journey, and how a kismet collaboration with co-founder Will Haraway led to the creation of LeadCoverage. From there, she’s helped drive hundreds of millions in revenue for clients by shifting them from outdated tactics (hello, cold calls) to modern, data-driven strategies centered on sharing good news, tracking interest, and following up.

This episode tackles:

- The #1 mistake companies make before launching a marketing campaign

- The difference between strategic intent data and AI—and why lumping them together is a big problem

- Why follow-up is a lost art and 35 touch points might just be your magic number

- How Kara’s framework works for scrappy startups and enterprise giants alike

- What “random acts of marketing” really look like (and how to sniff them out)

- The story behind her viral Girl Scout cookie experiment and its surprising freight lessons

Whether you’re a marketer, a founder, or anyone in between, Kara’s straight-shooting advice will challenge you to think deeper, measure smarter, and lead better.

From Ad Exec to the King of Tricky Ship: Paul Jarrett on Reinventing Fulfillment for the Modern Brand

In this episode of Supply Chain Decoded, host Jenni Ruiz sits down with Paul Jarrett, co-founder and CEO of Bulu—a 3PL that’s anything but traditional. From growing up in a trailer park to co-founding one of the first subscription box companies, Paul shares the unexpected path that led him from Madison Avenue ad agencies to masterminding logistics for brands like Disney, Clorox, and Hulk Hogan.

Paul unpacks how Bulu evolved from a subscription box startup into a fulfillment powerhouse, mastering the art of “tricky ship”—those complex, high-touch logistics projects most 3PLs avoid. He reveals how listening deeply to customers helped them build tech-enabled, omnichannel solutions that scale, and why empathy and servant leadership are the cornerstones of their business model today.

Expect stories of folding bandanas for Hulk, decoding NFT-infused inventory, and how curiosity, humility, and a solid co-founder (who happens to be his wife) keep the Bulu team future-ready in a shifting global market.

Topics include:

Paul’s journey from advertising to logistics

What it means to do “tricky ship” and why most 3PLs avoid it

Lessons in resilience from the pandemic and beyond

The power of empathy and trust in business partnerships

Why curiosity—not credentials—wins in logistics

If you’ve ever wondered what makes a fulfillment partner truly stand out, this one’s for you.
