“I would like to be measured by what the people who learned from me taught other people.” This is what my guest said, and I've never forgotten it. Seth Godin is one of the premier voices of business in our generation, and he was one of my first guests when I was host of The Ziglar Show, and this was the second time I had him on a show. Seth is well known for his innovative thinking and insight into what I'd cite as business and vocational reform. He's a true leader in that he's attracted a massive following of the business world who look to him daily for commentary on what's most relevant for successful business practices and ethics we can all benefit most from in our professional and personal lives. In this conversation, Seth talks about why the core tenants of morals, values and personal relationships that Zig Ziglar upheld are still what is most important for our success in today's marketplace. A marketplace that changes daily, but principles that do not. So coming up I bring this talk with Seth Godin and Tom Ziglar, Zig's son and CEO of Ziglar, from the archives because it's worth it.

Strategies to Turn Your Windshield Time Into a Competitive Advantage (Ask Jeb)

Sales Gravy: Jeb Blount

If you're in field sales, you know the reality: You spend hours every week sitting behind the windshield, staring at traffic that's moving at the speed of molasses. Whether you're dealing with Atlanta's notorious I-285 parking lot or any other major city's rush hour nightmare, that windshield time is either making you better or making you bitter. Recently on the Ask Jeb segment of the Sales Gravy podcast, Jacob Kimrey asked about helping his field sales team maximize their productivity while stuck in traffic. But here's the thing—this advice isn't just for managers to give their reps. It's for YOU, the field rep, to take control of your own success. Let me tell you how to turn those frustrating hours in traffic into your secret weapon. Driving Isn't an Accomplishment First, let's get something straight: driving is not an accomplishment. I don't care if you put 200 miles on your car today—that doesn't mean you accomplished anything meaningful for your business. Too many field reps confuse activity with productivity. They think because they drove all over creation, they had a productive day. Wrong. The goal is to minimize your windshield time and maximize your face-to-face time. But when you ARE stuck in traffic, you better make damn sure you're using that time to get better. Smart Territory Management Saves Windshield Time Before we talk about maximizing windshield time, let's talk about minimizing it through smart territory planning. Map your territory into quadrants: Monday territory, Tuesday territory, Wednesday territory, Thursday territory, and Friday territory. If you're supposed to be in your Monday quadrant but you're driving to your Friday area, you better have a damn good reason. When you're planning your field time: Group your appointments geographically: Don't hopscotch all over your territory in one day Plan your route in advance: Use your CRM to map out the most efficient route Use the T-calling technique: When you arrive somewhere for an appointment, look left, look right, look behind you—can you make additional calls in that immediate area? The tighter your route planning, the more selling time you create and the less windshield time you waste. Prospecting from the Road (Safely) Now, here's where it gets interesting. That windshield time can actually become prospecting time—if you do it safely and legally. There are apps and dialers that let you load phone numbers and dial hands-free while you're stuck in traffic. You can also set up your phone so contact numbers are easily accessible with voice commands. Safety first: Only do this when you're completely stopped in traffic or pulled over. Never compromise safety for a sales call. Hands-free follow-up calls: Use voice-to-text features to send follow-up messages to prospects or customers. Planning calls: Call ahead to confirm appointments or reschedule meetings. Customer check-ins: Those relationship-building calls that keep you top-of-mind with existing customers. The key is preparation. Have your call lists ready, know who you're calling and why, and keep it simple and safe. Voice Technology Is Your Friend Today's smartphones have incredible voice capabilities that field reps should be leveraging: Voice-to-text for quick CRM updates Voice memos to capture important thoughts or follow-up reminders Hands-free scheduling and calendar management Voice-activated research on prospects or companies Learn to use these tools, and you'll be amazed how much more productive your windshield time becomes. Welcome to Automobile University The number one thing you should be doing while stuck in traffic is attending what the great Zig Ziglar called "Automobile University." When you're sitting in your car, staring at brake lights, what's coming through your speakers? Is it the news (which will just make you angry)? Music (which won't make you any money)? Or are you investing in content that makes you better at...

YOUR PERSONA & PRESENCE MAKE YOU UNFORGETTABLE As a podcaster, you spend countless hours perfecting your content. But are you making your show truly unforgettable? In this episode of Podcast Talent Coach, I reveal why your unique persona and presence are the most important assets you have. These are assets that artificial intelligence or your competition can never copy. When you infuse your content with your personal story and authentic self, you stand out from the endless sea of sameness. It's this magnetism that attracts loyal listeners and turns casual followers into raving fans for your brand. WHY YOUR STORY IS YOUR SUPERPOWER Let's be real: being slightly better or just another "shade of gray" won't set you apart in today's crowded landscape. It's not about being cheaper, having a slicker course, or even a more refined mic setup. What makes people choose you, over and over again, is your story—your origin, your journey, your perspective. Your competition might try to imitate your process, but they'll never replicate your lived experience and genuine voice. In this episode, I break down how icons like Howard Stern, Oprah Winfrey, and Zig Ziglar rose to fame by unapologetically sharing who they are and weaving personal stories into every lesson. STOP TEACHING—START ENTERTAINING Too many podcasters get caught up in cramming more information into each episode. Here's the truth: listeners crave entertainment. Even when they're tuning in to learn, it's the stories and emotions you invoke that keep them coming back. Just think about your favorite teacher—the one who brought lessons to life, not the monotone professor who put the class to sleep. In this episode, I show you how to wrap your valuable content in relatable, audience-focused stories. When you stir emotion and invite your audience into your world, you don't just give them information—you give them an unforgettable experience. DEFINE YOUR BRAND WITH INTENTION Your brand isn't an accident—it's a choice. I walk you through how to identify four to six adjectives that define your podcast persona and ensure every episode supports those characteristics. Are you insightful, quirky, bold, or caring? Structure your content and stories to reinforce these brand traits with consistency and confidence. When you intentionally choose the characteristics your show stands for, you foster trust and recognition in your niche. Just like Gary Vaynerchuk and Mel Robbins attract their tribes with distinct personas, you can create a magnetic brand by sharing your story your way. TAKE THE NEXT STEP TO GREATNESS If you ever wonder why your audience isn't growing, your engagement is flat, or you're not making money with your podcast, the answer is likely simple: you haven't leaned into your story and presence enough. Now is the time to stand out by being more authentic, more entertaining, and more YOU. If you want hands-on help developing your podcast persona or building stronger, more profitable relationships with your audience, apply for a free coaching call at https://podcasttalentcoach.com/strategy-call/.

Fact number one: Your focus is in your control.Fact number two: Your focus is a critical factor in your success and harp happiness.Conclusion: What you focus on matters… a lot. In the last episode of the podcast, we were talking about focus in terms of placing your chords. I cited one of my favorite Zig Ziglar quotes, “You hit what you aim at.” I'm going to put a different spin on that today. We aren't going to talk about focusing on a goal exactly. We're going to discuss how to shift your focus to get you beyond a sticking point or a challenge. Here's my idea in a nutshell: when we focus on the hard thing, we lose perspective on why we are doing the hard thing to begin with. That can cost us a lot in terms of time, energy and enjoyment. Consider some of the things we focus on that can leave us with a feeling of letdown or even loss. We spend weeks preparing for Christmas, only to realize on December 26th that we didn't really remember to enjoy the day. Or we put days of effort into making a special meal - Thanksgiving dinner comes to my mind -  and everyone is finished their meal and watching the football game almost before we've sat down to our own plate. Or we prepare so much for a special performance that we don't know what to practice the day after it's over.  What about the things we focus on when we're practicing or performing? Are we focusing on the things that will help us grow and move us forward? Or are we only concentrating on the difficulties that are in front of us, whether those are wrong notes or stumbles or performance nerves? I believe that often we are looking through a microscope at too many of those moments, when we really should be using binoculars to see what lies ahead, beyond the hard part. Instead of going into the rabbit hole where our perceptions are distorted (that wrong note really doesn't matter that much!), we need a healthier perspective on what we're actually trying to do, so that we can get past the sticking point and get back to loving the music.

Selling a home usually means something big is happening—maybe it's a fresh start, a major transition, or closing one chapter to begin another. But for most people, selling a home can be overwhelming. That's where Kasey King comes in. She's the founder of Bodacious Properties, LLC, and she's built a business around helping people navigate all aspects of a real estate sale with ease, no matter their stage of life. Jeff talks with Kasey about her work, her influences, and how she and her team add value by handling the fine details and the hard work needed during a big transition.  To learn more about all the services provided by Bodacious Properties, visit https://paestatesolutions.com/ or call Kasey at (717) 345-3444.    WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW (00:00) Episode introduction. (03:00) Books by Robert Kiyosaki and T. Harv Eker inspired Kasey to learn the real estate business.  (05:44) Rather than “putting lipstick on a pig,” the goal of Bodacious Properties is to add value and make the home a safe living space. (11:04) Kasey started in real estate doing standard “retail” work, helping buyers and sellers. An early client made her realize that many people need help with all aspects of selling a home. (15:44) While most real estate agents will tell people how to stage a home for sale, Bodacious Properties does the work of preparing and staging in cooperation with the seller.   (17:29) Most of Kasey's work comes via referrals, outreach, and her website.  (18:15) With industry knowledge and connections in local governments, Kasey's team is especially helpful when time is tight, or a property becomes available under less than desirable circumstances. (22:41) Kasey and Jeff recommend books by Wallace D. Wattles, Zig Ziglar, and Alex Hormozi. Ziglar's philosophy is that you can get everything you want out of life by helping other people get what they want. Hormozi says you should provide so much value that people would be crazy to say no.   ABOUT BELLOMO & ASSOCIATES Jeffrey R.

The great Zig Ziglar, much-beloved author and motivational speaker, never played the harp as far as I know, but one of his most often quoted remarks is perfect for today's topic. Zig said, “You hit what you aim at, and if you aim at nothing you will hit it every time.” If you have ever had difficulty placing the notes in your chords, today I am going to teach you how to fix your aim. Of course there is more to placing and playing chords than just aiming at the strings, but you do have to get to the right ones. This is what makes three-note chords more difficult than two-note intervals, and what makes four-note chords even more challenging. And then there are those four-note chords in both hands at the same time! The more fingers you have to put on the strings, the more possibility there is for error, which is why we're going to take our time today and really explore what you need to know as well as what you need to do to increase your chances for success. Naturally, none of us gets every note right every time, but when we can read the notes faster and place our fingers more automatically, even the biggest chords are less daunting.  By the way, the techniques we will be talking about work for placing arpeggios too, so it's a double win today!

“So, it's not just about your business growth. It's also about … creating value & meaningful relationships.” – John Hall In third grade, John launched a lunch brokerage business. By college, he was building a student housing empire. And today? He's a keynote speaker, investor, & co-founder of multiple companies — wildly different ventures but all rooted in one thing: adding value to others. He didn't start out this way. Early in his career, he admits he was ego-driven & always worked an angle. Over time, he learned that the true measure of success isn't power or profit. It's the number of lives you elevate along the way. That belief shows up in everything he does, from how he hires, to who he partners with, to the companies he builds & invests in. For John, kindness is strategy. Relationships are capital. And success is leaving people better than you find them. From ego to impact, this story is about building a business that puts people first without sacrificing growth. To learn more, find him at Relevance.com & ArticleX.com.

In this episode of Entrepreneur Weekly, Alan Taylor engages in a thought-provoking dialogue with longtime friend, Scott Duffy, exploring the rapidly evolving domain of artificial intelligence (AI) at the AI Mavericks event in Los Angeles. Initially harboring skepticism, Alan's perspective undergoes a transformation upon noting that a mere 6.1% of businesses have integrated AI into their operations, as highlighted by a Goldman Sachs study, underscoring the nascent stage of AI adoption in various sectors. Scott introduces Jason Barnard, who developed a tool to help brands build authority in the AI sector by enhancing their online presence. Jason stresses the importance of a strong digital narrative, noting that he, despite his background, needed to boost his online authority at his company, Kalicube. Barnard focuses on training AI, like Google's algorithms, to represent individuals' credibility and expertise accurately. He encourages people to take control of their online narrative to ensure they are seen as credible experts. By testing AI platforms with inquiries about notable figures, individuals can see how consistent branding fosters trust—like teaching a dog a trick. Up next, we have Joe Stolte, who co-founded Daily AI, a groundbreaking tool that has changed how I create and send weekly emails. Despite being in its early stages, Daily AI has significant potential to transform businesses that may not realize what they're missing. The company focuses on “outcomes over outputs,” emphasizing that AI tools must drive tangible results, particularly for small businesses. By creating effective AI workflows and agents, Daily AI helps engage audiences and streamline the sales process, enabling users to automate tasks and achieve better results faster than traditional methods. Joining us next is, Renee Lossia Acho from the Renee Lossia Acho Real Estate Group, who discusses AI's role in real estate. Traditionally, developing educational courses has been resource-intensive, but AI, especially through digital twins, is changing this. However, some professionals worry about job security due to automation. It's crucial to remember that machines can't replicate the personal interactions essential for building relationships in real estate. Instead, AI should be seen as a complementary tool to enhance productivity and help professionals maximize their time. Brad Moss, founder of Enhanced AI, previously managed Amazon's third-party selling platform. Three and a half years ago, he recognized the potential of artificial intelligence and sought to create a platform for business professionals to build custom agents. With his background in tech and entrepreneurship, Moss is well-equipped to scale Enhanced AI. The platform streamlines the agent-building process, allowing users to create voice-controlled agents easily. He envisions a system where users can articulate their needs to automatically generate customized agents and encourages early engagement to maximize the platform's capabilities.. In a recent segment, Alan spoke with motivational speaker Dan Clark, who has been active since 1982 and started his career with the National Speakers Association under Zig Ziglar. Dan discussed how AI could enhance his focus on personal responsibility and character-based values, acknowledging the need for motivation in today's fast-paced world. He emphasized preserving the creative process while recognizing AI's potential to improve communication, particularly in marketing. Dan highlighted the ability of AI to replicate and amplify the wisdom of speakers like himself, Scott Duffy, and Alan. He concluded by expressing excitement about the upcoming AI Mavericks conference and its innovative potential. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

With personal anecdotes and wisdom from mentors, we discuss how instilling conviction in your team about the transformative potential of your products can drive excellence and peak performance. This episode is packed with actionable strategies and insights that will challenge you to recognize that true success starts from within. (00:03) Success Mindset and Overcoming Obstacles (14:17) Daily Behavioral Plan for Sales Success (26:12) Product Conviction and Peak Performance (31:49) Peak Performance and Sales Habits (43:33) Inner Conviction for Sales Success   (00:03) Success Mindset and Overcoming Obstacles This chapter features an engaging conversation with Krish Dhanam, a seasoned speaker and author with a remarkable journey in the sales industry. We explore Krish's transformative experience attending a Zig Ziglar seminar, which marked a pivotal turning point in his career. Krish shares insights on the importance of stepping out of comfort zones, emphasizing the distinction between comfort zone thinkers and effective zone thinkers. He highlights the mindset of the 3% who operate in the effective zone, characterized by their proactive and innovative approach to challenges. We also discuss how individuals can identify where they stand and strategies to transition into becoming effective zone thinkers, focusing on mindset shifts and embracing change. (14:17) Daily Behavioral Plan for Sales Success This chapter focuses on the mindset required for effective leadership and consistent success. We explore how leaders can prioritize negotiable factors they can influence rather than getting bogged down by uncontrollable elements. The importance of consistent daily actions over sporadic efforts is emphasized, drawing on the Sandler sales approach and the insights of renowned motivational speaker Zig Ziglar. By implementing a structured, methodical plan and fostering a growth mindset within teams, leaders can achieve sustained success without relying on last-minute, frenzied activity. Additionally, we highlight the importance of establishing clear foundations, visions, and benchmarks to guide the growth process and ensure accountability. Through stories and personal experiences, the discussion underscores the power of motivation, consistency, and strategic planning in reaching and exceeding goals. (26:12) Product Conviction and Peak Performance This chapter explores the fluidity of the PEST model in management, emphasizing the importance of belief and conviction in leadership and sales.

The conversation highlights how this conviction impacts clients and the significance of preparation and effort, regardless of past successes. Reflecting on personal experiences and teachings from mentors like Mr. Ziegler, I stress the importance of honoring one's profession and consistently striving for excellence. Furthermore, we examine the idea that the true essence of replicating success within a company lies in instilling conviction in the team about the transformative power of their products or services. By nurturing this belief, organizations can achieve peak performance and significantly enhance their impact. (31:49) Peak Performance and Sales Habits This chapter explores the nuances of sales management and personal productivity, emphasizing the importance of recognizing one's strengths and finding complementary partners in the workplace. We discuss the concept of being a creator who generates ideas and the necessity of having a trusted executor to bring those ideas to fruition. The conversation highlights the importance of viewing oneself as part of an assembly line where everyone's output serves as someone else's input, promoting efficiency and teamwork. We also reflect on the difference between individuals who work for a paycheck versus those driven by a mission to make a difference. A personal anecdote underscores the lasting impact of genuine passion and excellence, while Stanley Marcus's wisdom about sales is quoted to reinforce the value of client relationships. The chapter concludes with advice on maintaining peak performance through non-negotiable daily disciplines and the importance of being a time miser to eliminate frivolity and focus on meaningful interactions and tasks. (43:33) Inner Conviction for Sales Success This chapter challenges us to rethink our approach to success by focusing on the mindset and conviction we bring to our daily lives. Instead of searching for external tactics, Krish Dhanam encourages us to recognize that true success lies within us and is influenced by our thoughts and actions. It's a reminder that while tactical strategies are important, the foundation of success is built on our internal mindset and how we engage with our goals. As we reflect on this, the chapter leaves us with the powerful insight that success is as much about our internal perspective as it is about external actions. Until next time, keep this mindset in focus for good selling.

Storytelling is a powerful way to create relationships with your audience. Your stories allow you audience to get to know you. STORYTELLING BY THE BEST The best speakers in the world use powerful storytelling. Zig Ziglar always used great stories in every point he made. He was a master at storytelling. If you've listened to Zig, you've heard the story of the old water pump or the selling pans door to door. He made his stories come to life. When Simon Sinek speaks, he is always telling stories. Watch his TedTalk on starting with why and you will see a talk filled with stories. Brene' Brown is one of my favorites. Her stories of struggle and success make you fall in love with everything she does. Storytelling allows your audience to get to know you. By the stories you tell, your listeners know what you value, what you believe and how you operate. Friendships are formed through storytelling. Watch these three and others to learn from the best. TRANSPORT YOUR LISTENER One reason storytelling is so powerful is that stories transport your listener to other places. They forget about their problems and struggles for a bit. To take your listeners somewhere else, use visual words. Bring your story to life in the theater of the mind. Use words they can see. Active language helps your story come to life. It is easier to see walking than walked. "He walked into the diner" is harder to envision than "He came walking into the diner." Use all five senses. What did it look like? Describe the smells. What were the sounds? How did you feel? The more descriptive your story, the more it will come to life in your listener's mind. DO I LIKE YOU? Stories will help people decide if they like you. Your listeners need to like you in order to listen to you. They are going to spend 30 minutes or an hour with you in their earbuds. It better be more than info. Pretend they are asking, "Would I enjoy taking a one-hour car ride with this person every week?" That is really the essence of your show. Develop friendships by telling a story to your best friend. Let your listener learn something about you. REVEAL THINGS THROUGH STORYTELLING When I review shows for my clients, I always ask myself, "What do I know about the host that I didn't know before the show started?" Reveal things about yourself to let your listeners get closer to you. During a show review for a client recently, he referenced his Italian in-laws, mentioned the movie Talladega Nights and talked about the R&B group Boyz II Men. Little things like that let us get to know him. When are building your influence and authority, you need to become a powerful personality that attracts people. Storytelling defines your character. This is how people get to know, like and trust you. The Bible has lasted for thousands of years because of the stories around a powerful character. Comic book heroes have been around for decades due to the stories and characters. Zig Ziglar was influential because of his storytelling and powerful personality. To increase your influence and significance, leverage storytelling. STORYTELLING WITH DR. MICHELE GUNDERSON In this episode, we have a fantastic interview with Dr. Michele Gunderson. She is a former university instructor and Iyengar yoga teacher who has transformed into a successful entrepreneur. Dr. Michele possesses a unique talent for helping business owners align their inner and outer worlds through storytelling, which can catapult their businesses to new heights.

How to Survive a Mid-Winter Sales Rut (Ask Jeb)

Caroline is dealing with a dilemma so many sales professionals face this time of year: How do you shake off a mid-winter rut and regain your momentum when it's cold, dark, and everyone else seems to be dragging too? On this Ask Jeb episode, I offer practical, real-world strategies to help you thaw out from the winter freeze. Whether you're fighting the gloom of early sunsets, the aftereffects of holiday downtime, or the struggle to get your customers back in “buying mode,” these tips will help you power through and regain your momentum. Surround Yourself with Positive Inputs When you're in a mid-winter sales rut—especially in cold, gray weather—your environment can either lift you up or drag you down. The content you consume and the people you interact with have a direct impact on your attitude. Limit NegativitySkip cable news and doom scrolling. It's toxic and drains energy. Steer clear of co-workers who only want to complain. Instead, find colleagues or mentors who keep the conversation upbeat and productive. Engage in “Automobile University”Turn windshield time into learning time. Load up on podcasts, audiobooks, or uplifting content. If you're on the road for field sales, use that dead time to sharpen your skills or motivation. Pro Tip: Tune in to the Sales Gravy Podcast (yes, shameless plug!) or revisit classic audio programs by Zig Ziglar, Brian Tracy, or Jim Rohn for a quick confidence boost. Create a “Win” FileSave glowing emails, client testimonials, or kudos from your boss in one place. On days when you feel like a zero, open that folder and remember your wins. Believing in yourself often wavers most when external results are slow. A targeted self-esteem boost can snap you out of that funk. Read (or Listen) Your Way Out of the Slump When you can't rely on external circumstances (like sunny weather or a jam-packed pipeline) to motivate you, it's time to feed your mind intentionally. Pick Up a BookI once pulled myself out of a rut by alternating 10 minutes of prospecting with 10 minutes of reading No Bull Selling by Hank Trisler. That pattern helped him stay focused and eventually led him to top-performer status in his region. Audio AlliesIf reading a physical book doesn't fit your schedule, try audiobooks. Caroline mentioned she's listening to The AI Edge on Audible. Whether you dive into James Clear's Atomic Habits or any other self-improvement or sales guide, consistent listening can reset your mindset. Revisit (or Set) Your Goals and Business Plan Aimlessness often fuels a sales rut. Getting clear on why you're putting in the work refocuses your daily efforts. Craft a Personal Business PlanBreak your annual quota or goals into quarterly, monthly, and weekly targets. Then, identify the daily actions that lead to those targets. Write them down, review them often, and adjust as needed. Check In with Your Plan If you've already set goals: Take them out of the drawer and ask, “Am I doing what I said I would do each day?” If you haven't set goals yet: It's never too late to start. Use the lull to plan out the rest of your year. Try the “BTN” (Better Than Nothing) ApproachOn a recent Money Monday episode, we introduced the concept of doing something—even if it's small—to maintain momentum. One call, one follow-up, or one networking email is better than none at all. Doing a little bit every day builds massive momentum over time. Even if you're not closing big deals right now, small actions (e.g., 15 minutes of prospecting, 10 minutes of follow-ups) add up. “Eat the Frog” Early in the Day The Eat the Frog concept (mentioned in Fanatical Prospecting) is about tackling the hardest or most dreaded tasks first. If winter weather and post-holiday inertia already have you feeling sluggish, don't let procrastination compound the problem. Schedule Tough Calls in the MorningIf you tend to stall on prospecting, block out time when you're freshest. Once you conquer the hardest thing on your list,...

What is your biggest podcast struggle? On this episode, we are going to help a handful of podcasters overcome their biggest challenge. LET ME HELP YOU WITH YOUR STRUGGLE If you are struggling somewhere in your podcast process, shoot me an email. That might be getting started, growing your audience, maintaining consistency, generating revenue or something else. I'd love to help you. You can send me your struggle and I'll answer it here on the show. Visit www.podcasttalentcoach.com/contact. You can send me a note there. Here are the important links mentioned in this episode: Send your question: www.podcasttalentcoach.com/contact Get CastMagic: www.podcasttalentcoach.com/castmagic (affiliate link) Get Opus.pro: www.podcasttalentcoach.com/opus (affiliate link) Podcast editing services: www.podcasttalentcoach.com/editing Podcast hosting: https://libsyn.com Use coupon code PTC and get your first month free (affiliate code) Podcast Launch Accelerator: http://www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/pla THE CHALLENGES In this episode, we will tackle a variety of challenges. Tannen wants to know how to create a solid marketing strategy. Barbara is struggling to get people to subscribe. Ralph doubts he is even reaching anyone. Jeffry wants to know how to get started. The struggle Vanessa is facing is confidence without sounding arrogant. Michael's biggest struggle is finding people to help him. THE MARKETING STRUGGLE My biggest struggle is building a solid marketing strategy? How do I take my show and chop it up for a week's worth of social posts? When do I post them to create consistency? -Tannen There are a variety of AI tools that can help you create chunks of content. Repurposing your content on social media does two things for you. First, it helps you connect with your current listeners keeping them coming back. Next, sharing on social in the right way can help you reach new listeners. This includes TikTok and reels. Most social media only reaches your followers. These two platforms put your content in front of new people who might be interested. To grow your show, you need to find new listeners who don't know you. I recommend you record your podcast on video to begin. Use the video for YouTube to get discovered. You can also repurpose parts of the video for social media content. Then, use the audio from the video as the podcast. Use this for social content as well. Create captioned social media videos, quote cards, audiograms, and social posts. AI can help you create a lot of this. However if you don't have time, you can always pay someone to do it for you. How much is your time worth? Two tools I really like. The fist is CastMagic. You can find my affiliate link at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/castmagic. The other tool I love is Opus.pro. It creates captioned social media videos for your podcast. Find my affiliate link at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/opus. Let me help you. Visit www.podcasttalentcoach.com/editing. You can get a week's worth of social content for every episode. GETTING SUBSCRIBERS My biggest struggle is getting subscriptions. How do I get people to subscribe to my podcast? -Barbara Start with the why. When we try to get people to take action, such as subscribing to your podcast, we often rely too much on logic. People make decisions emotionally. Then, they justify those decisions with logic. When you spend too much time on the steps in your process, the features in your program or the content on your podcast, people don't take action. Nobody cares about your details … yet. Spend more time on the why. Stir emotion. Make your audience care. Then you can get into the details. AM I REACHING ANYONE My biggest podcast struggle right now is actually more of a struggle of faith. I've been doing the show daily for over a year and I sometimes doubt whether it's actually reaching anyone. Since I do a Christian based show, I know that God is always faithful and I simply need to trust in his timing and do the work. It's just hard some days when I look at the analytics. -Ralph Share that on your podcast. Be real. Touch people emotionally. Spittin' Chicklets just shared a piece on their show. It is a show about hockey. Whit is former NHL player Ryan Whitney. Biz is former NHL player and NHL hockey analyst on TNT Paul Bissonette. When they talk about being “in the room”, they are talking about being in the locker room. This audio comes from episode 545. It is an example of remembering why they do it. So Biz was, sitting in the Delta Lounge, I believe, at the airport, and a guy came over and dropped off this letter. I'm gonna read it to you quick because Biz sent it over to the guys. He said, “I listened to you guys when my life was falling apart. Just having the pot on in the background made me feel like I was back in the room. At sometimes, I was as bad as it gets with mental health, family, booze, etcetera. Since then, I've quit drinking two plus years now, and me and my family, wife and two little girls have made it out the other side, and we're doing great. You guys will never know how much comfort and support I got from just having the pod on and bringing me back to a good spot. You and Whit and all the boys saved my life. Sorry to bother you on your day off. Thank you, Nick.” And Biz, like, made it clear to us, like, reading something like that, man, he's got it right there... This is why we do it. What you're doing is important, Ralph. Keep at it. I STRUGGLE GETTING STARTED My biggest podcast struggle is just getting started. How do I find the confidence to take the first step? -Jeffry You can do this. We eat an elephant one step at a time. Break it down. In my Podcast Launch Accelerator, we build your podcast step-by-step. First, define your why, your topic and your idea target listener. Next, develop your show structure. Will it be solo, interview or something else? Get some equipment. You'll need a mic, a laptop and some headphones. Download Audacity to help you record and edit. It is free software. Hit record and share your thoughts. Export your audio as an .mp3. Upload it to your audio host, like Libsyn. Connect your host to all the podcast players. Take it one step at a time. SOUNDING CONFIDENT How do I sound more confident and less arrogant. -Vanessa This is an interesting question, Vanessa. I'm not sure how you can be arrogant without being confident. People want to know what you know. Share it with them. Share yourself and your story. Let people fall in love with you. As Zig Ziglar said quite often, “You can get anything you want in life as long as you help enough other people get what they want.” Give. Help people reach their goals. Then, offer to give them more help for an investment. On this show, I offer a ton of free advice. I would hope you don't feel like I'm arrogant or egotistical. Take my content and put it into action. However, I'm here when you want more help. When you need someone to walk you every step of the way, reach out. I'm more than willing to have that conversation with you. Believe in yourself. Some people will love you. Others may not. And that's ok. Attract the people who love you for who you are. THE TIME STRUGGLE My challenge is finding time. It's hard doing it by myself. My biggest podcast struggle right now is finding people to help me. -Michael Schedule it. Put it on the calendar. What gets scheduled gets done. You can also get a co-host. Share the work. Hire a virtual assistant to take the easy stuff off your plate. This could include creating show notes, posting your episode, and the other rote work that is the same week after week. As we discussed earlier, you can hire an editor. You can see my work at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/editing. What is your time worth? Hiring an editor allows you to show up and share your magic. Then, you can hand it off to someone else to do the dirty work while you spend your time getting more clients and generating more revenue. LET ME HELP YOU I'd love to help you. You can send me your struggle and I'll answer it here on the show. Visit www.podcasttalentcoach.com/contact. You can send me a note there. If you're really serious about overcoming your biggest struggle, we can also sit down for an hour of coaching. I can take your hand and walk you every step of the way.

Finally, Brad and I highlight the necessity of building a strong team to scale businesses and the significance of setting actionable goals for the future. Key Points: - Replace fear with knowledge to achieve success.- Mindset is crucial for overcoming obstacles.- Embrace failure as part of the journey to success.- Helping others is more valuable than selling to them.- Focus on what you can control: your mindset.- Practice is essential for building confidence.- Change is essential for personal growth.- Personal responsibility is key to achieving goals.- Happiness is a conscious choice we can make.- Success requires consistent personal development.- Building a team is crucial for scaling a business and achieving long-term success.- Action is the key to success; potential alone is not enough. About our guests: Brad Lea built LightSpeed VT into a multi-million dollar global tech company from scratch.

Send us a textEpisode Notes: Ever notice what the primary "inputs" you allow into your mind on a daily basis (news, social media, conversations)?... How do these inputs make you feel, and how do they influence your thoughts and actions?This week's episode of the Mind Wrench Podcast emphasizes the crucial role of mental inputs in shaping our mindset and life trajectory. Inspired by Jim Rohn and featuring insights from Zig Ziglar, the episode explores how consciously choosing positive, uplifting, and educational content can transform our thoughts, actions, and ultimately, our lives. Discover how shielding your mind from negative conversations, reality TV, and distressing news can set you on a path to personal and professional success. We share strategies to feed your brain with positive, empowering content that redefines your mindset and propels you towards growth and achievement.The importance of "feeding your mind" with the right information, similar to a healthy diet, is critical to our success. 3 Key Takeaways:Mental Diet Matters: Just like physical food, the information we consume impacts our well-being. Actively choosing positive and empowering content is essential for a healthy mindset. Negative inputs can lead to overwhelm and stagnation, while positive inputs fuel growth and inspiration.Language Shapes Reality: Our vocabulary and the language we use significantly influence our thoughts and perceptions. Replacing negative language with positive affirmations can reshape our mental landscape and foster a more productive existence. Zig Ziglar's example of the Native American tribes without a word for stuttering illustrates this powerfully.Coaching and Consistent Routines Accelerate Growth: Seeking guidance through coaching provides accountability and support, leading to improved self-esteem and confidence. Establishing daily rituals, such as listening to motivational content, reinforces positive messages and enhances retention. Consistent exposure to empowering information is key to internalizing and applying it.This epic speech from Zig should leave you with a better understanding of how our daily “inputs” affect our lives, as well as inspire a few things to think about: 1.      What steps can you take to design a more positive and empowering "mental diet"? What resources (books, podcasts, mentors) can you leverage to support this process?2.      How can you integrate consistent routinesSupport the showJoin our Mind Wrench mailing list!

In this episode of PivotMe, April sits down with Shane Keegan, a powerhouse entrepreneur who transitioned from a modest upbringing in Ireland to becoming a successful CEO in America. Shane shares how he started setting ambitious goals at the age of 13, inspired by motivational figures like Jim Rohn and Zig Ziglar.
