Are you a podcast host who feels awkward or frustrated when you try to sell your podcast or your content? You might be working hard to get people to listen to your show, but you know there are a million other shows they could be tuning into. The pain point isn't if you're selling; it's that you might be selling like an amateur instead of a professional. In this episode of Podcasting Unlocked, we speak with Morris Sims about the professional sales mindset every host needs. We dive into why you are always selling—the idea of listening, your content, and your expertise—even if no money is exchanged.This week, episode 239 of Podcasting Unlocked is about the professional sales mindset for podcast engagement! Morris Sims began his career as a Chemical Engineer. 5 years later, he decided to do something fun; he joined New York Life Insurance Company to sell Financial Services. 32 years later he retired after 20 years in New York as the Vice President and Chief Learning Officer in charge of training for all the Financial Services Professionals and Managers. Now, 8 years later, Morris is hosting his 3rd podcast, The Commission Code, and runs his own consulting and training company.  His clients are business owners looking for help and guidance to increase their revenue and have more time to enjoy it.In this episode of Podcasting Unlocked, Morris Sims is sharing the importance of approaching sales as helping others and actionable steps you can take right now to devise a strategy that makes it easy for your audience to buy into your show. Morris and I also chat about the following: You Are Always Selling: As a podcast host, you are constantly selling the idea of people listening to your podcast, selling your content, and selling yourself as an expert, even when you have nothing to exchange for monetary value.The Professional Mindset Shift: A professional salesperson focuses on the prospect (the listener) and what they need, making it easy for them to buy; an amateur focuses on themselves and forces the sale.The "Hate to Be Sold" Rule: People love to buy (like on Amazon), but they hate to be sold. Your job as a host is to make the process of buying into your show (listening or purchasing a digital course) different from old sales stereotypes.Content as Pre-Selling: Use platforms like LinkedIn to share high-value articles and content, which is a subtle way of selling your ideas and building trust with your audience before you ever ask them to listen to your show.Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on turning your podcast listeners into leads and to hear even more about the points outlined above. Thank you for listening!

Are you tracking the wrong metrics? Learn how to define podcast success beyond downloads and vanity numbers.If the only thing you track is your download count, you're missing the point of having a podcast. Many podcasters get caught up in vanity metrics, like being in the "top 10% globally" (which is easier to achieve than you might think) and forget what true podcast success looks like for their business. In this episode of Podcasting Unlocked, we break down why you get to decide what success means for your show and the exact, non-monetary, and monetary metrics you should be tracking to see if your podcast is actually working. We also share three valuable websites to help you benchmark your show against the podcast industry.Key Takeaways:Don't let vanity metrics like "top 10% worldwide" distract you; true success aligns with your show's core goals, whether that's lead generation, thought leadership, or positive impact.Track how many listeners become qualified leads (e.g., booking a call, signing up for a low-ticket offer). A 10% conversion rate from listeners to leads is fantastic, as podcast listeners have a longer nurture time.Success can be a client hiring you or inviting you to speak because of your podcast, or a listener sharing that your message positively changed their life.Find out where your podcast truly stacks up using external resources like Listen Notes, the Podcast Industry Report (for interview-based shows), and PodStatus.Hitting milestones like 100 episodes makes you part of a tiny percentage of podcasters who have gotten that far, proving that sticking with it is a major win.It's time to stop feeling frustrated by numbers that don't matter. Take five minutes today to write down your personal definition of success for your podcast.

Here's a 300-word iTunes/Podcast Apps summary for Episode 562: What happens when your carefully planned vacation in France takes an unexpected turn? In Unexpected France: History, Nature, and a Bit of Chaos, host Annie Sargent talks with traveler Gregg Furey about a journey filled with breathtaking discoveries, surprising challenges, and a few classic French travel mishaps. Listen to this episode ad-free Gregg's trip took him to places most visitors overlook. He explored the prehistoric caves of Arcy-sur-Cure, where ancient paintings connect today's traveler with humanity's earliest stories. He visited the soaring cathedrals of Laon and Bourges, each one a masterpiece of Gothic architecture. At the battlefield of Alésia, Gregg learned how Julius Caesar defeated Vercingetorix and how that moment still shapes French identity. And in Colombey-les-Deux-Églises, he reflected on the life of General Charles de Gaulle at the Croix de Lorraine memorial and museum. But not everything went according to plan. Gregg ended up in a hospital in Sarlat after unexpected health issues. Instead of panic, he found efficient doctors, affordable treatment, and an eye-opening look at how the French healthcare system really works. This detour disrupted his schedule but turned into one of the most memorable parts of the trip. This conversation is about more than just sightseeing. It's about handling the unpredictable. It's about staying flexible, finding humor when things go wrong, and discovering that mishaps often make the best stories. Annie and Gregg remind us that France is more than Paris and the Riviera. Smaller towns, Roman ruins, and quiet villages hold just as much magic. Subscribe to the Join Us in France Travel Podcast to hear more stories like this one.

Franchise ownership is one of the most accessible and scalable paths to business success—but only when paired with the right strategy, guidance, and support. Alesia Visconti, CEO and President of FranServe, has built her career on making that path clearer, faster, and more impactful for aspiring entrepreneurs around the world. Alesia leads FranServe, the world's largest franchise consulting and broker organization. Under her leadership, FranServe has grown into a powerhouse platform that connects people with franchise opportunities and equips them to become successful consultants themselves. Her work is redefining how the industry approaches business ownership, making it more inclusive, accessible, and future-focused. With over two decades of experience as a CEO, Visconti's approach to franchise ownership is anything but theoretical. She began as a franchise consultant herself, quickly becoming a top producer. When the opportunity came to acquire FranServe in 2016, she seized it—and completely transformed the organization. What was once a small network is now a global leader in franchise development, with hundreds of consultants and a mission rooted in empowerment. Visconti's approach is guided by a belief in personal freedom through business ownership. For many, franchise ownership provides the chance to control their future without starting from scratch. FranServe simplifies that journey by offering a structured, supported model with proven systems and a network of experts. This structure not only benefits the franchisees but also those looking to become franchise consultants—a role that has become increasingly valuable in the post-pandemic business landscape. Alesia also leads the charge in shaping the future of franchising through advocacy and education. She sits on several key committees within the International Franchise Association, including VetFran, the Diversity Institute, and the Legal Legislative Committee. She's a frequent speaker in Washington, D.C., lobbying for laws that protect small business owners and promote ethical franchising. Beyond her executive role, Alesia is an author, speaker, and champion for women in franchising. Her recent book, The Pink Tsunami: Women's Rise in Franchising, shines a light on the increasing influence women have in the franchising space—and the barriers they continue to overcome. Through platforms like Franchise Dictionary Magazine, which she also acquired and revitalized, Alesia is giving a voice to both the seasoned and the emerging leaders of the industry. What sets Visconti apart is her balance of business acumen and personal mission. She founded FranAid, the philanthropic arm of FranServe, to give back to causes that align with the company's values—including veteran support organizations, animal rescues, and cancer research. Her belief in doing well by doing good is woven into every layer of the company culture. In an era where entrepreneurship is being redefined, franchise ownership offers a tangible way to enter the business world with a blueprint. For those who don't want to reinvent the wheel—but do want to drive it forward—franchising presents a proven, supported model with limitless potential. Visconti and FranServe are leading the movement to make that model more visible, more viable, and more inclusive than ever before. Franchise ownership isn't just about products and services—it's about people. It's about helping individuals take control of their time, their income, and their impact. With leaders like Alesia Visconti driving innovation, advocacy, and opportunity, the future of franchising is not just strong—it's wide open. Watch the full episode on YouTube.

About the Lecture: A sequel to Michael Walsh's Last Stands, his new book A Rage to Conquer is a journey through the twelve of the most important battles in Western history. As Walsh sees it, war is an important facet of every culture – and, for better or worse, our world is unthinkable without it. War has been an essential part of the human condition throughout history, the principal agent of societal change, waged by men on behalf of, and in pursuit of, their gods, women, riches, power, and the sheer joy of combat. In A Rage to Conquer, Walsh brings history to life as he considers a group of courageous commanders and the battles they waged that became crucial to the course of Western history. He looks first at Carl Von Clausewitz, the seminal thinker in the Western canon dealing with war. He then moves on to Achilles at Ilium, Alexander at Gaugamela, Caesar at Alesia, Constantine at the Milvian Bridge, Aetius at the Catalaunian Plains, Bohemond at Dorylaeum and Antioch, Napoleon at Austerlitz, Pershing at St.-Mihiel, Nimitz at Midway and Patton at the Bulge with a final consideration of how the Battle of 9/11 was ultimately lost by the U.S. and what that portends for the future. About the Speaker: The author of more than fifteen novels and non-fiction books, Michael Walsh was the classical music critic for Time Magazine and received the 2004 American Book Awards prize for fiction for his gangster novel, And All the Saints in 2004. His popular columns for National Review written under the pseudonym David Kahane were developed into the book, Rules for Radical Conservatives. His books The Devil's Pleasure Palace and The Fiery Angel, examine the enemies, heroes, triumphs and struggles of Western Civilization from the ancient past to the present time. He divides his time between Connecticut and Ireland.

It's episode four of TLC's PolyFamily and Melissa and Rebekah are back with their fourth recap—because nothing says “closed quad” like four co-parents and two co-hosts.This week, the paternity drama takes a backseat as the quad looks ahead to a much bigger challenge: securing legal parental rights for all four adults over their five shared children. Spoiler: it's going to be a long, winding, and legally murky road.Meanwhile, the group attempts something equally complex—planning a date night. After a surprising amount of negotiation, Taya and Tyler come out on top, but is Tyler's idea of romance a reward or a punishment?Family ties tighten and fray in equal measure as Taya receives unwavering support from her dad, sister, and brother, while Alesia expresses a desire to reconnect with her own father—despite his disapproval of their lifestyle.Melissa and Rebekah may be split on Taya vs. Alesia, and they agree Tyler's ego took a long-overdue hit, but on one point they remain united: Sean is still the worst.Let Melissa and Rebekah know if you're enjoying the show and want them to continue the recaps!
