Retail Media wird erst dann planbar, wenn Strategie und Daten vor dem Budget stehen. Laura Dominguez (LDMM Agency) erklärt im Gespräch mit Mario Jung (OMT GmbH), dass viele Brands noch immer hoffen, dass hohe Budgets automatisch zu hohen Umsätzen führen. In der Praxis funktioniert das aber nur kurzfristig. Langfristiger Erfolg entsteht durch saubere Produktdaten, klare Zieldefinitionen und eine präzise Auswahl der Artikel, die überhaupt beworben werden sollten. Entscheidend ist, dass Kampagnen nicht blind laufen, sondern kontinuierlich analysiert und optimiert werden – erst dann bleibt der Roas über verschiedene Saisons hinweg stabil und belastbar. Zu oft übersehen: Die kanalindividuelle Strategie. Social Media Kanäle wie TikTok, Instagram oder Meta funktionieren völlig unterschiedlich, genauso wie Marktplätze wie Otto oder Zalando. Wer überall dieselben Visuals oder dieselbe Botschaft nutzt, verschenkt Potenzial. Jede Plattform hat eigene Communities, Erwartungen und Bildsprachen – und Produkte sprechen dort unterschiedliche Zielgruppen an. Für Marketer:innen bedeutet das: Kreative müssen kanaloptimiert produziert werden, und die Strategie muss sich an Zielgruppe, Sortiment und Plattformlogik orientieren. Gleichzeitig liefern interne Suchtrends wertvolle Insights für Sortimentsentscheidungen und zeigen, welche Produkte Kund:innen wirklich suchen – ein enormer Vorteil für Planung und Mediaeinsatz. Datengetrieben Retail Media hilft bei der Artikel-Auswahl und Budgetsteuerung. Nicht jeder Artikel eignet sich für Kampagnen: Saisonalität, Bestand, Bewertungen, organische Platzierung und prognostizierte Nachfrage entscheiden darüber, ob ein Produkt beworben werden sollte. Bestseller müssen nicht zwingend gesponsert werden, wenn sie organisch stark laufen. Gleichzeitig hat sich die Denkweise bei CPCs verändert: Höher bieten bringt in Peak Phasen kaum Vorteile und verbrennt Budget. Statt Bauchgefühl braucht es datenbasierte Steuerung, klare Ziele und ein realistisches Erwartungsmanagement – nur so wird Retail Media nachhaltig profitabel.

Vanessa Göcking ist ein Phänomen. Nachdem sie als Autorin unzufrieden mit der Arbeit des Verlages war, der sie veröffentlichte, dachte sie sich: "Ich möchte nicht ständig hören, was alles nicht geht. Lasst uns doch lieber überlegen, wie wir Dinge ändern und besser machen können." Doch das Umdenken kam nicht, also gründete Vanessa kurzerhand ihren eigenen Verlag, den VANI Verlag. Innerhalb von zwei Jahren veröffentlichte sie dort vier eigene Bücher, die allesamt auf Platz 1 der SPIEGEL Bestsellerliste landeten. Sie entdeckte als Verlegerin eine unbekannte Autorin und veröffentlichte ihren Debütroman als hochwertiges Hardcover, der ebenfalls auf Anhieb auf Platz 1 in die SPIEGEL Bestsellerliste einstieg. Geht nicht? Gibt's nicht! Vanessa Göcking ist für mich ein echtes Vorbild. Anstatt sich zu beschweren, wie schlecht alles läuft, hat sie die Dinge selbst in die Hand genommen und einfach besser gemacht. Woohooo!!! Heute erscheint ihr neues Buch Ms Atkins und die Bibliothek der Träume. Darüber reden wir ausführlich. Und über die Buchbranche, über Bestseller, übers Schreiben und über das unglaubliche Gefühl, es allen gezeigt zu haben. Lass dich inspirieren.

In today's episode, host Jenn Foster sits down with three-time author and international bestseller Martha Daniel. As a trailblazing entrepreneur, cybersecurity innovator, and motivational speaker, Martha has authored influential books including You Gotta Have Guts, Million Dollar Conversations, and On the Other Side of Midnight. Martha shares the inspiring stories behind each of her books, from tackling Y2K crises to empowering women and aspiring dreamers everywhere.

The world feels heavy, and many believers are running on empty, but God is still the God of encouragement and endurance. In this conversation, Catherine talks with Shannon Crowley about her new book The Ministry of Encouragement and how God lovingly imparts courage right into the places we feel afraid, exhausted, or ready to give up. You’ll hear Shannon’s story of joy and “crap‑ola” seasons, how God met her in loss, and why encouragement is a manifestation of perfect love that drives out fear instead of shaming you for struggling. They explore Barnabas as a “son of encouragement,” the role of community, and why even behind‑the‑scenes faithfulness can ripple out to impact countless lives. What you’ll learn: - How God encourages you through scripture, the Spirit, and people - Practical ways to encourage yourself in God when you feel flat - Why community and interdependence matter when you want to isolate - How to offer simple, Spirit‑led encouragement that strengthens others To support the ministry with tax-deductible donations: https://catherinetoon.com/support/ Marked by Love, Revised & Expanded Edition is here:

You'll hear how Natalie developed her creative process, overcame hundreds of rejections, & ultimately broke through with her debut novel, I Hope This Finds You Well, which became an international bestseller.

Florian Illies bespielt Bestsellerlisten, entfaltet in seinen Büchern Geschichtspanoramen, beobachtet Naturphänomene und lotet Stimmungen und Gefühle aus. Das Etikett Pop-Literat brachte ihm sein Buch "Generation Golf" ein. Es folgten Titel wie "1913. Der Sommer des Jahrhunderts", "Zauber der Stille", das Buch über Caspar David Friedrich. Die Liste ginge weiter und weiter. "Wenn die Sonne untergeht. Familie Mann in Sanary" war sein Bestseller aus dem Jahr 2025. In seinem neuen Buch "Träume aus Feuer. Der Alchimist von der Pfaueninsel" taucht Florian Illies ein ins Barockzeitalter, in die Geheimnisse der Glaskunst, erzählt von Johannes Kunckel, der auf der verwunschenen Pfaueninsel, unweit von Potsdam, rubinrotes Glas zum Leuchten bringt und den Großen Kurfürsten damit begeistert. Über die Faszination der Glaskunst, über eine magisch schöne Insel und auch über die Rezeptur seines Schreibens spricht Florian Illies bei NDR Kultur à la carte mit Claudia Christophersen.(00:00:00) Intro(05:11) Suite für Violoncello solo Nr. 1 G-Dur BWV 1007 - Prélude (1.

Most authors have plenty of ideas, but struggle to turn those ideas into a book that is both authentic and successful. Today's guest, Steve Kidd of Thriving Bestsellers, has spent over 40 years helping entrepreneurs uncover their true voice and transform it into bestselling books. He's worked with more than 5,000 authors and contributed to 42 #1 international bestsellers, giving him a rare depth of insight into what it really takes to stand out in a crowded marketplace. In this episode, Steve dives into why self-discovery is the critical first step in authorship. Steve explains that most people are writing from the identity others assigned them; parents, teachers, spouses, instead of the person they actually are. He shares why your book becomes a powerful tool for transformation when it's rooted in your authentic self, not in borrowed quotes or imitated styles. Rather than staring at a blank page, Steve recommends writing your book via interview, capturing real, spontaneous stories and insights that sound like you, then shaping that raw conversation into a compelling manuscript. Steve tackles the rise of AI in writing head-on. Steve isn't anti-AI; in fact, he shows how it can be incredibly powerful when you feed it deeply personal, accurate information about who you are and who you serve. But he warns that most AI-generated books are “garbage in, garbage out” generic content stitched together from other people's work, with no real voice or originality. The difference between a soulless AI book and a powerful, AI-assisted bestseller is whether you've done the hard work of knowing yourself and clearly defining your reader. From there, the conversation shifts to the part almost no one plans for: real book marketing. Steve explains that a book is a product like any other, and it needs both a marketing plan and a marketing budget to perform. He breaks down why simply “hitting bestseller” on launch day is not a strategy, and why most authors stall out after release because they have no follow-up campaign. Steve shares how verified purchaser reviews, ongoing promotion, and a realistic ad budget (or equivalent time investment) make the difference between a book that quietly disappears and one that consistently brings in readers, clients, and opportunities. https://youtu.be/v59jrjgMpAg?si=H8oXoO8ZYFvRPApP If you've ever thought, “I'll just let AI write my book,” or assumed that if you “build it, they will come,” this episode will challenge those myths and give you a grounded, hopeful path forward. Whether your book is just an idea, half-finished on your hard drive, or already published and underperforming, Steve offers a practical, encouraging way to bring your real voice to the page, and then get that book into the hands of the people who need it most.

Quotes: “Most of the biggest problem people have with the book they write is they're thinking they're supposed to write a specific book because of a trend or something somebody told them to do.” “Step one is knowing who are you, who are you writing to, and then what do they need; knowing those three elements before you do anything else.” “Every product has to have a marketing plan and a marketing budget, whatever that is, and most people launch the book, hit bestseller, get excited, and then do nothing to follow it up.” Contact Details: Visit the Thriving Best Sellers Website to Start Your Publishing Journey Today Connect with Steve Kidd on LinkedIn for Proven Bestseller & Business Growth Strategies Your Bestselling Journey Starts Here; Follow Steve Kidd on Instagram Today Ready to Become a Bestselling Author?

What if the thing standing between you and the life you were meant to live… isn't your circumstances, your resources, or your talent — but one invisible enemy inside your own mind? My guest today spent thirty years broke, overlooked, and grinding before the world ever heard his name. He drove trucks. He tended bars. He wrote scripts nobody bought. And then he sat down and wrote a book that redefined how artists, athletes, and entrepreneurs think about their own psychology.

Position Your Nonfiction Book for Bestseller Success with Wiebke TaschAnika sat down with Wiebke Tasch to explore a hard truth in the publishing world: most nonfiction books fail not because the writing is bad, but because the positioning was wrong before the first word was ever written. Wiebke shares her journey from feeling stuck in a German PR agency to accidentally writing an Amazon bestseller about heartbreak, and how that success led her to found Digital Authors. The conversation reveals why a book is not just a vanity project, how data should dictate your book's direction, and why the "AI hype train" might be the worst thing to happen to your legacy.In This EpisodeHow a personal crisis and a lack of available therapy led to Wiebke's first bestselling bookThe difference between a vanity project and a strategic credibility builderWhy "guessing" your book's niche is a recipe for failure—and how to use data insteadThe cultural divide: Why European authors feel they must be an authority first, while US authors use a book to become oneRepositioning a business coach: How pivoting from "digital nomad" to "building a business" resulted in 9x more pre-salesThe "personal story formula": Why frameworks alone are boring and how to keep readers engagedThe role of AI in publishing: Why ChatGPT makes for terrible books but a great proofreaderA surprising market trend: Why the flood of AI books has created a unique opportunity for genuine human authors right nowThe psychological mirror of writing: How becoming an author forces you to confront your fear of visibilityThe "5-Day Amazon Window" and the secret to getting the algorithm to market your book for youCrafting a 3-month launch strategy and why Sunday afternoon is the worst time to hit "publish"Timestamps00:00 Introduction: Why do most nonfiction books fail to find an audience?01:24 From Berlin PR to digital nomad: The origin of Digital Authors 03:10 Writing Why Can't You Love Me? and accidentally hitting a bestseller niche 05:38 Learning from failure: Why the second and third books flopped 07:27 Market analysis: Using data to find demand before you outline the book 11:38 Europe vs. US publishing culture: "Who are you to write?" vs. "Write to become." 14:27 Case Study: Repositioning a "digital nomad" book to 9x the pre-sales 17:34 The writing process: Blending personal storytelling with actionable frameworks 23:28 The truth about AI in publishing: Use it to proofread, not to write your legacy 27:55 The personality development of writing: Overcoming the fear of being seen 32:01 The 5-Day Amazon Window: How to trigger the algorithm to push your book 36:31 A 3-month book launch strategy: Pre-sales, webinars, and launch parties 39:50 Positioning differences between established experts and brand-new authors 45:54 A special 25% discount offer for authors under 40 49:33 Favorite mantra: Trusting your own intuition above all elseKey Insights & TakeawaysInsight 1: Positioning Precedes Writing Most authors write what they want to say without checking if anyone is actually searching for it. By running a data-driven market analysis first, you can identify high-demand, low-competition niches, ensuring your book has a built-in audience before you even outline the first chapter.Insight 2: Frameworks Are Boring; Stories Stick If your book is just a step-by-step guide, it should have been a PDF. To keep readers engaged in an era of scrolling and short attention spans, authors must blend their conceptual frameworks with deeply personal stories and actionable exercises. Readers need to see themselves in your journey.Insight 3: The 5-Day Amazon Algorithm Window Publishing your book quietly and starting marketing two months later is a death sentence for sales. Amazon gives new releases a 5-day window. If you can drive massive traffic and conversions during those first five days, the algorithm will pick up the book and essentially take over the marketing for you long-term.Insight 4: AI is for Polishing, Not Creating While the market was briefly flooded with ChatGPT-authored books, readers are rejecting the generic, soulless writing. A book is a timeless authority tool meant to last for decades. Use AI for final grammar checks or structuring thoughts, but the core ideas and the voice must remain deeply human.Insight 5: Writing a Book is an Act of Personal Transformation Writing a book forces authors—especially women—to confront their imposter syndrome and fear of visibility. The process of claiming your expertise on the page ultimately translates to how you show up in your business, handle speaking engagements, and price your services.Resources & Links MentionedDigital Authors (Wiebke's Agency)About Wiebke TaschWiebke Tasch is the founder of Digital Authors and a publishing strategist who helps entrepreneurs and thought leaders turn their expertise into books that build authority and attract opportunity.

This week I'm talking to Terry Lovelace about his book 'Incident at Devils Den'. This is my true story. Written by Terry Lovelace, a 64-year-old lawyer and former assistant attorney general. In 2012 a routine X-ray of my leg found an anomalous bit of metal the size of a fingernail with two tiny wires attached. What followed were horrific nightmares, spontaneous recall and intrusive thoughts surrounding a 1977 camping trip I took with a friend to Devils Den State Park in Northern Arkansas. For fear of losing my job and my standing in the legal community, I've kept this secret for 40 years. But the 2012 discovery of this object, one and one-half inches deep in my thigh, initiated a flood of nightmares I could not control. Bio Terry Lovelace is a six year veteran of the USAF where he served as a medic and EMT from 1973 to 1979. He has a bachelor's degree in psychology with honors from Park University in Kansas City, Missouri. He completed a law degree from Western Michigan and passed the Michigan State Bar Examination.  He was also admitted to the bar in Vermont and the US Territory of American Samoa. His legal career began in private practice until his appointment as an assistant attorney general for the U.S. Territory of American Samoa, he also served as State's Attorney for Vermont Board of Medical Practice until his 2012 retirement. He and a friend were abducted from Devils Den State Park in NW Arkansas in June 1977 while remote camping. They were both on active duty at the time. What followed were 40+ years of nightmares, phobias, and PTSD-like issues which continue to this day. In 2012 a routine leg x-ray discovered two anomalous objects in his leg. The x-rays are on his website at terrylovelace.com. That event was his catalyst to write two books and speak publicly about his experiences. For fear of losing his job and the respect of his peers in the legal community, he waited until 2018 to self-publish INCIDENT AT DEVILS DEN, a #1 Bestseller on Amazon with 700+ Reviews at 4.8/5.0. His second book, DEVILS DEN: THE RECKONING was published the week of Christmas 2020. It was #1 in New Releases immediately and hit #1 Bestseller status on February 10th. Upcoming event: Speaking at Yale University on the topic of Alien Abduction, March 25th. His abduction story was featured in the UK Newspaper, THE GUARDIAN on September 12, 2021. He was a guest lecturer with Leslie Kean, Author and NY Times contributor at Rice University in Houston, Texas in November 2019. He's spoken at the UFO Congress in 2018, Contact in the Desert in 2019 and 2021, The Roswell UFO Festival 2019, UFO Con in Dallas in 2020, Alien Con in San Francisco in 2020, The Ascension Conference in Sedona in 2021, and the Ozark Digital Conference in 2021. His story was featured on a television episode of the Travel Channel's “MY HORROR STORY” which originally aired in November 2019, and “UFO ENCOUNTERS” aired in Canada in August 2021. Terry is a graduate of THE WELLNESS INSTITUTE in Graham, Washington where he successfully completed their program in hypnotherapy. He is currently performing hypnotherapy for experiencers who are struggling with memories from an ET encounter. He has done numerous past life regressions with amazing results. Since March 2018 he's been a radio/podcast guest 100+ times. https://www.amazon.com/Incident-Devils-story-Terry-Lovelace-ebook/dp/B07B7HMPPZ https://www.terrylovelace.com/ https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcasthttps://simonbown.com/My new book, Aspects of Alien Abduction https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9YZen AI bit.ly/zenAI_bpp_ufo Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Feeling stuck in regret, shame, or “if only I hadn’t…” loops from your past? In this episode of Perspectives with Catherine Toon, Dr. Catherine unpacks how God can redeem your story, heal the fallout of other people’s choices, and turn even your worst mistakes into real wisdom. You will learn how to own your part without taking on false responsibility, reject victim identity, and partner with God as a powerful son or daughter instead of staying stuck in self‑pity. Catherine shares how to forgive yourself and others, release the need for payback, and trust God’s justice without slipping into religious punishment pictures of God. You will see how aligning with love, refusing bitterness, and choosing healthy boundaries can shift the “cycles” that keep repeating in your life. If you have ever thought, “I’ve wasted years,” this conversation will help you see how nothing is beyond redemption in God’s hands. What you’ll learn: - How to move from victim mindset to powerful partnership with God. - Practical ways to forgive yourself and others without denying the pain. - How to leave justice with God and stop rehearsing revenge in your heart. - How God turns regret, betrayal, and “stupid decisions” into real wisdom and compassion for others.

Every major financial mistake starts with a single decision—and sometimes one bad deal really can change everything. In this episode of the Financial Survival Network, Kerry Lutz welcomes back David Barnett to explore why seemingly smart opportunities can quickly become expensive mistakes. From online misinformation and excessive debt to poor financing and rushed decisions, Barnett explains how people end up taking on far more risk than they realize. He also discusses where AI can be a valuable tool—and where human judgment remains essential. The conversation dives into the psychology of negotiating, the importance of having alternatives, and why thorough due diligence is critical before committing to any major transaction. Through real-world examples and personal stories, Barnett shares practical lessons on managing risk, making better decisions, and avoiding the one bad deal that can change everything.

Dass Daniel eine süße Nachspeise serviert, bei der Katharina zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt fluchtartig das Studio verlassen muss, bleibt die einzige Panne in dieser Folge. Ansonsten gibt es: „Fun with Flags““ (Helgoland oder Italien?), große Bestsellerharmonie und einen Gast, der seine Karriere als Gagschreiber bei Jan Böhmermann begonnen hat (Traumjob oder schlaflos in Köln?). Und als Christian Huber dann auch noch beichtet, dass er Pathos liebt und Daniel unentdeckte Metaphern verrät, sind die beiden Best Buddies und kurz davor, ein Busunternehmen in Bayern zu gründen. Wobei: Diese eine unfreiwillige Landstraßenbegegnung in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern – die sitzt den Hosts noch ziemlich in den Knochen.

“Bestseller” has become one of the easiest words to fake in publishing, and it's costing authors money and readers' trust. I sit down with publishing expert Michele DeFilippo, who brings decades of real-world experience helping authors produce high-quality books without giving away control, rights, or royalties.We talk about why self-publishing no longer carries the old vanity-press stigma, and why the power has shifted now that Amazon and print-on-demand make global book distribution accessible. Michelle breaks down the difference between needing a publisher and needing professional publishing services, plus the red flags of hybrid publishing companies that charge authors upfront and still take a cut of sales. We also get practical about what “professional” actually looks like: editing, cover design, book typesetting, ebook formatting, and the kind of investment it can take to make your book compete with traditional releases.We also dug into author scams, including how “bestseller” schemes game Amazon's algorithm, what a real bestseller metric looks like, and why distribution tools like Amazon KDP and IngramSpark still don't do your marketing for you.If you're planning to self-publish, want to avoid costly traps, or simply want your book to look unmistakably legit, hit play, subscribe, share with a writer friend, and leave a review so more authors can find the show.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Dr. Rainer Zitelmann joins Kerry Lutz to discuss his new book, The New Space Capitalism: The Entrepreneurial Path to the Stars. He explains how private companies—led by SpaceX—have revolutionized space exploration by dramatically lowering launch costs and reigniting humanity's push beyond Earth. Looking ahead, Zitelmann envisions lunar settlements, missions to Mars, and asteroid mining, but argues that achieving these goals will require massive private investment. His solution: establish clear property rights in space, giving entrepreneurs and investors the incentives needed to build a lasting human presence among the stars.

Is the recent gold pullback a warning—or a trap? John Rubino explains why the long-term gold and silver bull market remains firmly intact despite short-term volatility and physical market distortions. In this episode of the Financial Survival Network, Kerry Lutz speaks with financial writer John Rubino about why the long-term gold and silver bull market continues to hold strong despite recent market turbulence. They break down the forces driving today's geopolitical and economic instability, from rising global tensions to shifting energy dynamics and their potential impact on voter sentiment heading into the midterms. John explains how persistent government debt and accelerating industrial demand—especially from solar and EV battery production—continue to strengthen the structural case for precious metals, even amid short-term corrections and tightening physical supply conditions. The conversation also explores how emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, SpaceX innovations, and autonomous vehicles could reshape transportation, education, and everyday life. Kerry also previews his new book, The All-New Speeder's Guide to Avoiding Tickets.

Are we on the verge of global peace, or is the market pricing in a reality that doesn't exist? Kerry Lutz sits down with macro analyst Jim Welsh of Macro Tides to dissect the massive shifts rocking the global economy. While the mid-month geopolitical headlines sent oil prices down and stocks into immediate fragmentation, Jim issues a stark warning that the market is celebrating too early. He details a looming oil supply shortfall over the next six months that could trigger a major "oh sh*t" moment for investors, potentially spiking crude back to $150–$200 a barrel. The duo also breaks down the reality of EV demand destruction, upcoming midterm election risks, and why current tech valuations—including the rumored Tesla/SpaceX merger—closely mirror historic market bubbles like RCA in the 1920s and Amazon in 2000. For investors trying to navigate late-summer volatility, Jim's technical breakdown on equities and precious metals reads like an active playbook. He predicts a looming 5% to 7% pullback for the S&P 500 by July and August, followed by a massive rally above 8,000. Meanwhile, gold and silver bulls might need to brace for impact; Jim explains why gold's current "Wave 4" correction isn't over yet and could temporarily drag prices below $4,000 before its next explosive leg up.

Networking gets a bad reputation. And honestly? It's earned it.For most people, the word conjures images of awkward small talk, business cards nobody keeps, and conversations that feel more like auditions than actual human connection. It feels transactional. It feels fake. And for a lot of women, especially, it feels like a game they were never taught how to play.But what if the problem isn't networking itself — it's the way we've been taught to think about it?On the 2B Bolder Podcast, host Mary Killelea sits down with Monique Kelley — professor, consultant, and author of Redefining Networking: How to Lead with Your Unique Value, an Amazon #1 Bestseller in Business Ethics — to completely reframe what networking is, what it isn't, and why getting it right might be the single most important career move you make.Monique is a two-time PRNEWS Top Women in PR award recipient, a founding member of CHIEF, and has been featured in FOX and Fast Company. She's built a career working with some of the biggest names in biopharma — Pfizer, Roche, Lilly, Johnson & Johnson — not by chasing opportunities, but by building meaningful relationships that opened doors long after the conversation ended. Today she teaches the only Career Readiness course at Boston University's College of Communication, shaping how the next generation of professionals show up, connect, and lead.This conversation covers it all — her career journey from a pre-med detour into communications and healthcare PR, the moment she stepped in to present to a major client when her boss was out and realized that relationships matter just as much as the deck, and the pivots that took her from agency life to in-house roles to fractional consulting and eventually the classroom.Mary and Monique dig into the real stuff:What most people fundamentally get wrong about networking — and why that misunderstanding is costing them real opportunitiesWhat "leading with your value" actually means in practice, not just as a concept but as a daily behaviorA clear, three-step framework for defining your unique value, choosing the right audience, and showing up consistently — on LinkedIn and beyondWhy your network isn't a list of contacts. It's a living system of people who understand what you bring and actively want to advocate for youHow to build a network from scratch when you feel like you have nothing to offer and nowhere to startWhy remote work and meeting overload are making organic connection harder than ever — and what to do about itThe truth about "I don't have time to network" (spoiler: it's a prioritization issue, not a time issue)What Monique is seeing right now across executives, students, and mid-career professionals — and the specific behaviors she notices in women who are actually building momentumWhat she teaches her Career Readiness students at BU that experienced professionals desperately need to hearAnd the one thing she wishes she had understood earlier about building a career that lastsWhether you're in the middle of a career transition, feeling stuck in a role that no longer fits, or just dreading the next industry event — this episode will completely shift how you think about connection, value, and what it actually means to build a career on your own terms.

This week on Trading Secrets, Jason Tartick is joined by entrepreneur, creator, and New York Times bestselling author Olivia Levin. What started as a Taylor Swift fan account at age 13 has evolved into one of the most influential fan communities on the internet, with over 630,000 followers, major brand partnerships, a thriving ticketing business, and a bestselling book, The Story of Us. Olivia shares the incredible story of how a difficult season of layoffs, loss, and uncertainty led her to bet on herself, turn her passion into a full-time career, and build a business at the center of the creator economy. She breaks down the realities of monetizing a niche audience, securing brand deals, helping fans access face-value concert tickets, landing a publishing deal with Simon & Schuster, and consulting artists on fan engagement strategies. Plus, Jason and Kathryn dive into the power of fandom, Taylor Swift's business genius, creator monetization, entrepreneurship, community-building, and what Olivia has learned from spending more than a decade at the heart of one of the world's most passionate fan bases. Whether you're a Swiftie, creator, entrepreneur, or simply curious about how passion can become profit, this episode is packed with lessons on business, branding, and building a career on your own terms.
