Description: This episode is a rebroadcast of one of my favorite episodes from a year ago. Own your Career, Own Your Life with author Andy Storch. My wife and I have been driving this past week from our home in Mexico to Austin Texas. Rather than trying to rush out an episode, I thought I would dig back into the archives and rebroadcast one of the more impactful episodes of the last year. If you listened to this episode last year, I suggest you listen to it again. In this episode, I am speaking with Andy Storch. Andy Storch is an author, consultant, coach, speaker, and facilitator specializing in helping clients turn strategy into action and people doing the best work of their lives. Andy's purpose is to love and support his family and to impact the world by inspiring people to stop drifting, take control and live life with intention. Andy is also the host of two podcasts, including The Talent Development Hot Seat and Andy Storch Show, and the co-founder and host of The Talent Development Think Tank Conference and Community. Andy is also the author of the book, Own Your Career Own Your Life, published in 2020. It is because of his book that I am speaking with Andy.

Today our expert guest is Andy Storch, an author, consultant, coach, speaker, and facilitator on a mission to get the most out of life and inspire others to do the same. He is also the host of two podcasts — The Talent Development Hot Seat and The Andy Storch Show — and the author of “Own Your Career, Own Your Life,” which is designed to help professionals stop drifting and take control of their futures. When Andy was on the show back in episode 115, just a little over one year ago, this book wasn't really on his radar. But as he got more into personal development — by way of Hal Elrod, like myself — he realized that he already had a message he wanted to put out into the world. He just hadn't put it all in one place yet. A big part of Andy's message is contrary to a lot of what you'll see in the self-development space these days, which often emphasizes the personal freedom unlocked through entrepreneurship. And that's true, to an extent, but being an entrepreneur isn't for everyone — and it's not necessary to live a happy and abundant life. So Andy endeavored to create a resource that was applicable to anyone who has been told that you can't have it all, or that you have to put your time in and then you can have a good life in retirement. This is a resource to help anyone put in the priorities, boundaries, and systems that will allow them to, as the title says, own their lives. This may not be the right time to burn all the ships and charge forward with a grand new venture, this might not be the right time to tell your boss where to stick it. But there are still ways to take back control, and Andy has some practical strategies to help you do it. The Biggest Helping: Today's Most Important Takeaway “I want you to think about where you've been drifting in your life, letting other people or society dictate how you live and what you do for work and in your career. Where can you really flip a switch and start to take ownership, start to take responsibility, stop playing the victim, and set a course and really start moving towards that. Stop putting things off, stop procrastinating.” Where can you take ownership today? Where can you really dive in and own your future? -- Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.

One of the many benefits of doing a podcast is that you get to talk to lots of amazing people. I learn something from every single guest. I come away from every interview grateful for having the chance to talk with that guest. However, I occasionally have a guest who not only teaches me something new, but inspires me in such a powerful way that I look at everything I'm doing in a new way. Today's guest is just that type of person. His name is Andy Storch, and he is a talent development consultant, speaker, creator of the Talent Develop Think Tank conference which is happening in January 2020, and last but not least … he is the host of not one, but TWO podcasts: the Andy Storch Show, and the Talent Development Hot Seat.

Be a student of your craft and of management. Have the mindset that even if you might be doing a good job, you know you can get a lot better. There's so much to learn. – Andy Storch Hi everyone! Welcome to today's episode. Our guest for today is Andy Storch. Andy is a Talent Development Consultant and Partner at Advantage Performance Group based in sunny Orlando, Florida. He's the host of two podcasts: Talent Development Hot Seat, and The Andy Storch Show. Today we talk about: The importance of personal and professional branding Impostor Syndrome, Understanding and acknowledging your own strengths and weaknesses, Putting yourself (and your content) out there and a lot more. Click that play button to listen! Don't forget to subscribe and rate us on Apple Podcasts! Impostor Syndrome I remember the first time I was an analyst at a large insurance company in California. I got promoted as a product manager, and I had an analyst reporting to me. I realized very quickly that she knew more about the job than I did, and that was an intimidating and humbling situation because I didn't really feel like I should be her manager. I felt like she should by my manager. I know a lot of people end up in situations like that – whether it's legitimate or not – because many people have a little bit of “impostor syndrome”, where you don't think that you really deserve the title or the position that you're in. I definitely had that then. What I've learned later on in life is that being a manager is not about being the smartest person. It's not about knowing more than the people who report to you. It's about being able to coordinate, put them in the right position to do their jobs, be there to coach them and help them with issues they're dealing with. Personal and Professional Branding I really believe that in the future of work, things are changing. We hear about the so-called “gig economy”. It doesn't mean that everybody's going to be a freelancer or an independent consultant like me, but I do think that companies are going to be going to more project-based work. People are going to be moving around more, working remotely, working in different positions, different places, changing jobs a lot more often. Therefore, I think it becomes more and more important for people to understand their own strengths and the strengths of the people around them, and getting different roles based on what those strengths are. And they're often going to assign those things based on what you're known for. Everybody has a brand, something they're known for, whether they take time to define it or not. Stay hungry Keep that mindset that you've never really reached your destination, or you're on a journey of learning, of growth, even when you are 50 or 60 years old and pretty established in your career. That you don't know it all, you don't have it all figured out. That you could always learn from other people, and you have this curiosity, always.

Today our expert guest is Andy Storch, a talent development consultant, coach, connector, speaker, and host of two world-renowned podcasts: The Talent Development Hot Seat and The Andy Storch Show. Andy has been committed to getting people inspired to live their best life, but he didn't always know that growing up. He grew up not really knowing where he was going through high school, he just knew that he wanted to get into college and get a good job, and he's been figuring it out as he went. He first got into personal development around 3 years ago, when he heard Hal Elrod on a podcast, and that launched him into a journey of personal development and investing into his own development and learning. Personal development is investing in yourself and learning how to get better, but most big companies have departments responsible for talent development, helping employees to get better at their job through technical or soft skills. We're starting to see some major shifts in the way people think about work. People want to connect more with a purpose in their job and they want to know where they are going with their careers. We are seeing a big push in the “gig economy,” where people are contracted to do work for other companies. This doesn't necessarily mean everyone is going to end up being an Uber driver, but there will be a focus on more project-based work instead of hiring for one specific role. As the future of work changes, everyone is going to have to start paying more attention to their personal brand. That phrase can turn people off sometimes, but it's really just another way of saying you need to control your reputation. Here are some ways you can shape your personal brand: People have thoughts about you, whether you are trying to control it or not. Be intentional about the things you are known for and showcasing your strengths. Connect with the people who are doing the things that you want to be doing. Leveraging social media to share and build your brand, even just sharing articles that are relevant and add value to others. Andy's two podcasts are both motivated by helping people in talent and personal development. Fear holds so many people back, and The Andy Storch Show is all about helping people get over that fear and follow their dreams. And The Talent Development Hot Seat podcast is for anyone interested in corporate talent development, developing people, and becoming a better manager. The Biggest Helping: Today's Most Important Takeaway “Take full responsibility for everything going on in your life. If there are some things you want to get better at, things where you could or should be spending more time, think about what your priorities are, try to align those with the way you are living your schedule, and take full responsibility for everything going on in your life. Don't worry about what other people are doing. Don't be a victim to what society is doing or telling you. Take full responsibility. Live life intentionally. Set big goals, connect with your purpose, and go out and have a great life.” -- Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.

Smart sellers can make social media work for them by building a personal brand, giving value, connecting with others, and growing their business. Andy Storch is a consultant and coach who is always learning new things about sales and who loves the freedom that selling provides. Though he says he still has a lot to learn, he has an advantage over many others because he's always trying new things. Because he has the confidence to experiment and discover what works and what doesn't, he has a leg up on a lot of other people. Personal branding Whether you're selling services or products, there are very few things that absolutely distinguish your offerings from other people's. In fact, customers can always find an alternative. In B2B especially, they are buying you. They want to do business with you. Relationships are so important for sellers which is why it's more important than ever to develop a personal brand. You must let people know who you are and create authority. To that end, Andy uses social media to let people know who he is, to create authority, to share knowledge, and to build authority. Attracting people As sellers, we initially think we want to get on a call with everybody, but there are a lot of people we just won't gel with. Social media attracts people who want to work with us and deflects others. In an era where everyone is creating content of some kind, we have to put our own content out there in order to build our authority. Given the amount of content that already exists, it's tempting to wonder why yours matters. Even if you're regurgitating information you learned from someone else, put your own spin on it. For some, it's blogging. Others use podcasting or YouTube. It depends on your style and where your clients are. Andy points to podcaster Chris Ducker and his business Youpreneur. In his book Rise of the Youpreneur, Chris says that if you build a personal brand, it's the last brand business you'll ever need to build because you can take it with you and evolve it into any kind of business. Five years from now, you may do completely different work, but if you've built a brand and a following, people will go with you. Building a brand Your personal brand is what you're known for. Having your own website and your own colors is the advanced part of it. Are you known for being knowledgeable, trustworthy, and someone that people want to learn from? Andy posts on social media with the goal of helping his friends discover the things that have previously worked for him. They tell him that he inspires them, and he has created a personal brand as someone who is an achiever, who helps and inspires other people. You want to be known as someone knowledgeable and trustworthy at the end of the day. People who need it Think of your content as giving information to a friend. You are putting it out there for those people who need it and want it at that time, not for people who don't. Don't worry about the judgment from people that your content isn't for. Most people are rooting for you. Even if the content isn't for them, they'll just scroll on by. Action steps Andy's primary business is B2B so he spends most of his time on LinkedIn. When he moved to this business 18 months ago he committed to posting every weekday. Over time he has gained some traction there, though it's a tough platform to engage on. Until you have a really good following of people, it's tough to get likes and comments. Start by finding an engagement group where people are in a group together commenting on each other's stuff. Be careful with this, though, because if you join multiple groups it can be tough to keep up. If you find one, it will help you build your following and gain exposure. It doesn't directly turn into sales, but it keeps him top of mind for people. You don't know who's on there and who's seeing your content. Don't put content out just for the sake of doing so, but find ways to be valuable to the people who follow you. Don't assume you'll start generating sales right away. You're serving people, you're building a brand, and long-term it will work out for you. Logistics The best practice is to schedule content, but Andy calls himself a live-in-the-moment kind of guy who decides each day what to post. He alternates between providing content that targets his ideal clients and general content that would be helpful for larger numbers of people. His target clients are less than 10 percent of his overall network, so sometimes he wants to speak directly to them, but sometimes he wants to engage a larger group. Share experiences Think back to your own experiences and knowledge. Can you turn those into posts or stories that you can tell Would you rather write or speak? You've got to put it out there are hit publish. You won't get much response in the beginning but you've got to keep doing it. When you have a fear of judgment or criticism, it grows as you let it fester. The more you take action, just like with cold calling, you build more experience so it becomes less scary. Podcasting Andy has two podcasts: The Andy Storch Show and The Talent Development Hotseat. He uses the latter to land meetings with target clients who otherwise wouldn't meet with him, and it's working beautifully. Everyone loves to tell their own story and they love attention. Many people don't know how to do that because they aren't going to start their own podcasts. Andy gives them a way to share their stories and experiences. The same people who failed to accept sales meetings with Andy suddenly accepted the offer to appear on his podcast. He's working to develop personal relationships with these people. These people didn't see a compelling reason to interact with him before they discovered his platform. The added benefit is that he's growing his authority and building relationships. Serve don't sell Resist the temptation to include lots of calls-to-action and links. Provide value. They want to know that you're trustworthy and that you have interesting things to say.
