Crafting Marketing that Connects with Emily Aborn Host: Marcia Riner, Business Growth Strategist & CEO of Infinite Profit® Guest: Emily Aborn, Copywriter, Content Marketing Consultant, and Podcast Host Introduction What if your words could do more than just fill space on a webpage? What if they could attract the right clients, build stronger relationships, and drive real business growth? In this episode of Profit With a Plan, I sit down with Emily Aborn, an expert in content marketing, copywriting, and brand messaging. With over a decade of experience and collaborations in 113+ industries, Emily knows how to turn words into powerful business tools. We're diving deep into: ✔ How to craft marketing that feels authentic and engaging ✔ The balance between pain points and benefits in messaging ✔ Why cohesive branding matters across all platforms ✔ The power of specificity and clarity in your content Whether you're a business owner struggling to connect with your audience or just looking to refine your brand voice, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you turn marketing into a growth engine for your business. Let's jump in! Episode Highlights & Key Takeaways [00:00:07] Introduction: The Power of Words in Marketing Marcia introduces the episode and the role of effective copywriting and branding in business success Guest Emily Aborn has worked with businesses in more than 113 industries, helping them create impactful messaging [00:02:26] Meet Emily Aborn: From Outdoor Gear to Copywriting Emily shares her journey from writing about outdoor sports gear to becoming a top content marketing strategist The importance of storytelling in making marketing more relatable and effective [00:06:49] Discovering What You Truly Love in Business How Emily identified her strengths in marketing, writing, and strategy The importance of aligning your business with your natural talents for long-term success [00:08:56] The Power of Specialization Without Losing Opportunities Many business owners fear niching down, but Emily reframes it as recognizing patterns in ideal clients Why specialization can actually attract higher-quality clients [00:10:59] Crafting a Clear, Authentic Message for Your Brand Avoid trying to be everything to everyone—clarity builds trust and connection Consistency in tone and language reinforces your brand identity Using recordings of natural conversations to refine messaging [00:13:40] Pain Points vs. Benefits: Finding the Right Balance Many marketing strategies focus only on pain points, but is that always the best approach? Why excitement and aspiration can be just as powerful as urgency and fear Instead of just fixing a problem, market the vision of a better future [00:15:47] Selling Without Manipulation Not every customer wants a quick fix—some prefer a strategic, long-term approach The difference between marketing to emergency buyers vs. aspirational buyers Why attracting aligned customers leads to better long-term relationships [00:20:29] Making Copywriting More Conversational and Engaging Find your natural speaking style and let it translate into your writing Avoid robotic or overly polished copy—people connect with authenticity Using voice memos to refine messaging before writing [00:23:28] Using Specificity to Make Your Message More Relatable A vague message won't connect with the right audience Example: Saying “Imagine biting into a slightly tart Granny Smith apple” is more engaging than just saying "apple.” Being specific makes content feel more personal and engaging [00:27:43] Targeting the Right Audience Without Being Too Narrow Instead of just selling wrinkle treatments, focus on the desired outcome Example: “Want to look effortlessly radiant, like you just applied the perfect makeup—but without wearing any?” Speaking to a specific outcome attracts the right audience without alienating potential customers [00:28:43] The One-Person Rule: Speaking Directly to Your Ideal Customer Content marketing should speak to one specific audience per post Trying to appeal to everyone at once makes messaging unclear and ineffective Instead of writing one long, general post, create separate targeted messages for different audience segments [00:30:42] Creating a Cohesive Marketing Strategy Marketing starts with a great conversation that builds trust and leads to sales Effective copywriting connects with the audience and makes it easy for them to take action Your words should reflect your brand personality so potential clients feel they already know you Conclusion: Your Words Can Build Your Business Great marketing isn't about tricks or gimmicks—it's about using the right words to connect, engage, and convert. Emily shared invaluable insights on balancing authenticity, specificity, and strategy to create messaging that truly resonates with your audience. So, what's your next step?

How to Boost Productivity and Overcome Overwhelm with Mark Struczewski, aka Mister Productivity Welcome to another episode of Profit with a Plan! In this episode, Marcia Riner, Business Growth Strategist and CEO of Infinite Profit® tackles productivity with guest, Mark Struczewski, a Houston-based productivity coach and host of The Mister Productivity™ Podcast, who has recorded over 1,300 episodes. Mark shares his expert insights on eliminating overwhelm, boosting productivity, and maintaining focus. Whether you're a solopreneur or leading a team, this episode is packed with actionable tips to help you get more done without burning out.   Key Talking Points: [00:02:01] Introduction to Mark Struczewski Marcia introduces Mark and his productivity journey, emphasizing his practical, actionable approach to managing time and eliminating distractions. [00:04:34] The Power of Quick Wins Mark discusses how focusing on a single, small task can help overcome feelings of overwhelm. He advises against trying to tackle everything at once, which only leads to frustration. Instead, find one quick win to build momentum. [00:12:15] Micro Breaks for Maximum Focus Mark highlights the importance of taking 3-5 minute micro breaks without technology to recharge your mind and body. He explains how stepping outside, grounding yourself, and taking in nature can refresh your energy and improve productivity. [00:17:10] Scheduling vs. To-Do Lists Mark explains why scheduling tasks on your calendar is more effective than relying on to-do lists. He shares his tip of blocking time for small, 5-15 minute tasks to avoid feeling overwhelmed by long lists. [00:21:11] Personalizing Your Prime Time Mark emphasizes the importance of understanding your personal prime time for productivity. Whether you're an early riser or a night owl, schedule your most critical tasks during your peak performance hours. [00:26:40] Setting Clear Goals and Vision Mark explains how to align your daily activities with your long-term goals. He stresses the need to start with a clear vision, then work backward to create actionable goals that feed into your plan. [00:35:00] The Importance of Movement Mark talks about how regular movement—whether through standing desks, rebounders, or micro breaks—can significantly enhance productivity. He shares research from the blue zones, where active lifestyles lead to longer, healthier lives. [00:40:20] Multitasking Myth Mark debunks the myth of multitasking, explaining that most people are simply switching rapidly between tasks, which reduces overall efficiency. Focus on one task, bring it to completion, then move on to the next. Actionable Tips: Micro Breaks: Take 3-5 minute technology-free breaks throughout the day to reset your focus. Plan, Don't List: Put your most important tasks on your calendar, not on a to-do list. Prioritize Your Prime Time: Identify when you're most productive and schedule your biggest tasks during that window. Get Moving: Incorporate physical movement throughout the day to stay energized and productive. Say No to Multitasking: Focus on one task at a time to improve efficiency and reduce stress.

Breaking the Growth Ceiling: How to Scale Your Business Without Working Harder    "What if you could reclaim 50% of your time and still grow your business? It's not about working harder; it's about working smarter and more intentionally." – Brandon Gano   Are you feeling trapped by the growth ceiling in your business, no matter how much effort you put in? What if the answer isn't working harder but working smarter? In this episode of Profit with a Plan, Marcia Riner sits down with visionary entrepreneur Brandon Gano, who shares his game-changing insights on breaking through business roadblocks. Learn how to identify the hidden issues that are holding your business back and discover strategies to scale your company without sacrificing your sanity or adding more hours to your workweek. If you're ready to take your business to the next level, this episode is a must-listen!   Host: Marcia Riner, Business Growth Strategist & CEO of Infinite Profit® Guest: Brandon Gano, Co-Founder of WhadIf   Key Topics Discussed: Where Growing Businesses Get Stuck: Many business owners hit a growth ceiling that feels impossible to break through. Brandon discusses the common pitfalls that businesses face and how these barriers can often be self-imposed. Instead of working harder, identifying and addressing hidden obstacles within the business can lead to breakthroughs. Pinpointing the Root Causes of Business Issues: Rather than assuming the solution lies in more leads or additional marketing spend, Brandon emphasizes the importance of diagnosing the real problems. He compares this approach to a doctor's diagnosis—asking the right questions and analyzing symptoms to find the true cause of issues, rather than jumping to drastic solutions. Scaling Beyond Current Limits Without Adding More Hours: The episode dives deep into how business owners can scale their operations without working themselves into the ground. Brandon introduces the concept of intentional business model design, which involves aligning all parts of the business to function seamlessly as a cohesive unit. By doing so, entrepreneurs can achieve growth without the burnout that typically accompanies expansion. Highlights: Diagnostic Tools: Brandon talks about a free diagnostic tool available on the What If website. This tool asks critical questions that help identify where business pain points and roadblocks are, offering a clearer path to resolution. Historical Business Insights: Brandon provides an interesting look into how the evolution of business structures since the Industrial Revolution has led to the common departmental silos and competition for resources that exist today. He explains how this historical context affects even small businesses and why a new approach is necessary. Practical Steps for Business Owners: The conversation offers practical advice, like conducting time studies to understand how business owners are spending their time. This self-awareness is a crucial first step in reallocating tasks and focusing on strategic growth activities. Takeaways for Business Owners: Evaluate Your Business Structure: Look at your business as a whole and identify areas where you may be acting as the bottleneck. Start considering ways to delegate tasks and build systems that allow your business to operate efficiently without your constant involvement. Adopt a Holistic Approach: Avoid seeing different functions (like marketing, sales, and finance) as separate entities. Integrate them to work towards a unified business goal. Plan for Serenity: Aim to build a business environment where serenity is part of the culture. Constant firefighting and crisis management are unsustainable. Focus on systems and training that empower your team to handle issues independently.
