Network marketing: often gets a bad rap. But the plus side is that they build community, and can help build leadership qualities. People can bring in some DOUGH….AND get to stay home with their children... In December, we started this series for specific online business owners …with our Unleashing The Power of Podcasting for Authors Ep. 111: www.wrenrobbins.com/dontwingit/111 Today we are talking about Why strategic podcasting can amplify network marketers' success! And you need to hear the reasons why. We are answering these questions: How does strategic podcasting serve as an effective platform for educating consumers and showcasing expertise in comparison to short-form content like 60-second Instagram stories? How does podcasting serve as a powerful tool for expanding connections in network marketing, and what specific benefits does it offer in terms of network growth? How do podcasts contribute to building genuine relationships within the industry? What role does network marketing podcasting play in lead generation, and how can it be effectively utilized as a strategy to generate quality leads for businesses? How does the convenience of podcasting cater to the on-the-go lifestyle of network marketers, providing them with the freedom to discuss relevant topics and gauge their team's needs for tailored content? In what ways does podcasting offer schedule flexibility and freedom for full-time moms or work-from-home moms in network marketing, and how can it be a valuable tool for activation in their busy lives? Excited for you to listen in!

There are three things you need to do to keep your podcast listeners coming back for more: educate, inspire, or inform them. Information informs. Inspiration inspires people to do the hard things!!

I'm reading the book, Grit by Angela Duckworth. A great book for business owners. In the chapter entitled Practice, she writes about cognitive psychologist Anders Ericsson. And, as Angela is intrigued by the attitude of grit and what its based on, she dove into Ericsson's research of how experts acquire world-class skills, and she was even able to meet him.  Ericsson concluded that while experts do not log more hours of practice….they do practice DIFFERENTLY. We are diving into leaning into our work with deliberate practice. In leaning into the hard and the effortful practice you will need a guide, someone who has been there leading you so that you can live out your assignment with excitement. The real value is more lives transformed!!!  Recently, I had a coaching client have an Instagram reel go viral but added no followers but then said… “We've been getting more clients coming from the podcast….after listening they feel like they can trust us.” And, I know seeing more lives transformed is what you want, isn't it?

You gonna SIT, SOAK, AND SOUR? Nope. Action=Results Recently I was reading Hebrews 6: 7 “When the ground soaks up the falling rain and bears a good crop for the farmer, it has God's blessing.” I love that we can take one verse and look at words or phrases in it that can show us something about our lives. The rain soaks AND it will bear a good crop for the farmer. When you look at the phrase “bear a good crop” you look at the action. I did a deep dive on some synonyms for “bears” Action Produce Give forth Provide Yield Produce Supply Provide Generate I LOVE THAT!!!  Many of us have been soaking in the “professional development” for way too long. We've been soaking in our “masterminds”, we've been soaking in “what our coach said to do.” Is the soaking important? For sure yes, but it can turn sour if action is not taken. What action are you going to take to create Kingdom impact for others? I think you know what it is. IF it is enlarging your impact, giving people hope from your story, selling without feeling icky...consider a podcast!

There's a Christmas party at church for the youth group tonight. So last night together, my son and I made some white chocolate covered pretzels with sprinkles. After we let them dry, I put the pot in the sink with the remnant of the hardened white chocolate we melted the chocolate in….saying to myself, it just needs “time to soak”. Time to soak?? It needs extra time to just sit in the soaping water and the suds to allow it to lift the remnant of the white chocolate off the pan. Who am I fooling?? Let's be honest, I pulled “the time to soak” excuse out because I had been gone all day and I didn't want to clean the pan!!! I wonder if you've ever said to yourself…I'm just gonna let that dream “soak”… I'm gonna need some extra time to allow the the dream to lift off the ground. If so, listen to this episode today!

Abby First, branding guide, podcaster, and homeschool mom of two joined me for real talk about her branding business and her feelings before she launched her podcast in my Flight podcast program! Abby struggled with feelings of scarcity - and the scarcity mindset of running out of resources and running out of energy. But, what she has now??? A capsule podcast ready for her to use! She has A WAY for others to be intimately connected to her INSTEAD of being on social media all the live long day. She also has the confidence and she is PROUD of herself for completing her podcast capsule well. (her words to me) In this episode, we talk about what held her back BEFORE joining Flight and how she wanted to honor her priorities in her business AND her life including spending her time homeschooling her girls and creating her podcast with a plan given to her. In Abby's words, “You saved me hours on YouTube!” We wrapped the episode up on how Abby had MANY moments of comfort with the group knowing they had her back and their beautiful applicable wisdom buoyed her up.  And she offers encouragement to others to make a move, even if it IS messy! Tune in to this episode and connect with Abby on her podcast: Branding from the Heart On Instsagram: @the_verdant_heart_project  Email her at: abby@theverdantheartproject.co

I was reading a book about how blessed we are in the US to have the freedom to have food in our hands to use in our homes…the land of opportunity. And it got me thinking about the opportunities we have as business owners and podcasters. With the holiday season coming up, however, we may have to give some thought to our peace and priorities. So if balancing these things is where you're at right now, lean in and listen to today's episode!

Your podcast needs a LOOOONNNGGGG runway. My husband is in Corporate Aviation and there are quite a few steps before he takes off in the airplane. And, I started thinking how similar his process is to launching your podcast. Learn all about it in today's episode!

It's starting to get to be coolish here in Tennessee. I say "coolish" because it's super cool in the mornings but hot in the afternoon. And it got me thinking about bonfires. Have you ever gone to a bonfire? There are 3 requirements to build a fire: fuel, oxygen, and heat. The fuel is twigs, paper, and branches. The oxygen is the air God gives us outside, and the heat is from a match or lighter. You need all three to have a healthy fire. And, I started thinking about the difference between a spark and an ember: and its huge! Did you know that a single ember, can't generate much heat? But, once you have even just a small pile of embers, they can produce the radiative heat necessary to ignite many materials, including wood. Did you also know that embers are ignited when they are in a group? Let's compare how an ember-producing fire can affect you when you are in a group program. You: are ignitable, feel the heat around you. stay warm even after the fire is extinguished, and you can be like embers blowing far away, starting spot fires (affecting others) who can be miles away! Fired Up already??? Let's do this! Listen in to today's episode to hear the benefits of a group program AND the prerequisites for being in a group!

Let's say you guest on someones podcast. You want to show them how much you care that they took the time to reach out to you, researched you, came up with questions, AND, most of all, introduced THEIR audience TO YOU…so you know what they really want???? They want you to share the episode. Listen in and take note of a way you can do that TO.DAY!

When you have a goal and you tell someone about it and you check it off your list, you have more of a chance that you will accomplish that goal.  In fact, Google tells us we are 65 percent more likely to meet a goal after verbalizing this goal to someone else! Today's episode is all about how beliefs can either hold us back from reaching our full potential - or help us get there.

A client shared her podcast goal with me for the week. She said her goal was to create additional content for this week's episode and schedule it. And, from the naked ear, it sounded good.

As business owners we are always leading, so it was refreshing to be led and that was true of Angela. Angela shares about how she and her husband serve at a Christian camp and how she loved being in the Flight group program allowed her to enjoy the gift of being led. She said, “What a gift it is to follow someone else.” Insurmountable barriers like the lack of time and being terrified of the technology kept Angela from starting her podcast. After the Flight Podcast Program Angela is now confidently and consistently recording, editing, and publishing her podcast! When God leads, you follow and you know it is the perfect timing. Angela went ALL IN when she joined Flight. She proved that you make time for what you want and when you have skin in the game, you prioritize it. She did that and I'm so glad that she is sharing it with us today on Don't Wing It! The moment you've been waiting for…the FLIGHT podcast small group program cart is OPEN!! But, only for 5 days!

Before Deb participated in my Flight podcast group program she was plagued with fear. In 2023, she kept moving her “Launch a podcast” business goal from Q1, to Q2, and then to Q3…pushing it away because it was too heavy and too hard to figure it out on her own. But, she is a GO GETTER…why couldn't she just do the thing?? Right after Deb and I got in contact with each other, she heard CLEARLY that she was supposed to join the FLIGHT podcast group….I get LITERAL chills when she tells the story!!!

When Jim and I were doing some tree work at our property last week, we had to follow a step-by-step plan to get the work done and stay safe. First, we got the tools and the Gator truck into position.

When we focus on what we can't do and NOT what we are called to do, we get stuck. We stop walking in the gifts God gave us. AANNNNNNDDDDD, nothing good happens when we focus on ourselves.

Our lives are busy!

The fact that I started podcasting not knowing what I was doing is still comical to me. But, experience is the best teacher and I've been doing this now for 7 years, having launched TWO thriving podcasts!!

Time - the one thing we can't create. Or can we?   In my experience, one of the biggest reasons entrepreneurs have given me for NOT starting a podcast is - you got it: they don't have time!   So in today's episode, I'm going to give you 5 tips for creating time out of your busy schedule, and 3 practical strategies for using those tips, so you can start moving on getting your podcast started!   One warning, friend.

Don't be a woman who wastes time!   Really, we make time for what we want to make time for. And if you're listening to this episode and you really do want to get started, don't make any more excuses! Book a call with me and let's talk... I promise to be honest with you and help you sort through all the weeds. You truly may not be ready.   But what if you are?!?   Looking forward to talking soon with you, friend - 'cause life is waaaay too short to just wing it!

I was sitting in a straight-back navy blue chair with my cutting board in front of me on a small round wooden table.  It was Teachers' Appreciation week and I was cutting up apples, around 45 of them to be exact. "Why?" you ask.  I was in charge of teachers and staff appreciation week again this year. ( I think maybe the 4th year!  So much fun!)  It was my creative vision to have an apple bar for the teachers at my son's school.  You know, have sliced apples set up on pretty serving plates and have all the yummy toppings, caramel and choco sauce, peanuts, heath bar chips, and of course the fruity pebbles! HA! My creative vision thought of everything!  Or, I should say, Pinterest thought of everything! I wanted to make this special but I forgot one important thing: I didn't ask for help.
