What if your most valuable content is already sitting unused in your video library?Creating more is not always the answer. The bigger opportunity may be turning every video, podcast, training session, or interview you have already produced into a collection of useful, discoverable business assets.The solution is a repeatable AI-powered workflow that transforms unstructured content into optimized blog posts, newsletters, social posts, short-form videos, sales materials, SOPs, and more—without relying on a one-sentence prompt and hoping for the best.In this episode of the Leveraging AI podcast, Isar Meitis speaks with Ryan Robinson about building that workflow from the ground up.Ryan demonstrates how a YouTube video can become an SEO-optimized article using RightBlogger. He also breaks down how business leaders can recreate and adapt the process with tools such as Claude or ChatGPT.The real lesson goes beyond video-to-blog conversion.You will learn how to give AI the context it needs, refine its first drafts, turn successful processes into reusable skills, and automate the creation of downstream content assets.You will also hear why AI-generated work still needs human review—and where those checkpoints belong before anything reaches a client, colleague, or public audience.In this session, you'll discover:How to turn videos, podcasts, and other unstructured inputs into valuable business contentWhy asking AI to “write a blog post” is not enough to produce useful resultsHow RightBlogger converts videos into structured, SEO-optimized articlesHow keyword research, content structure, internal links, external links, and FAQs improve an AI-generated draftHow to have Claude or ChatGPT interview you before creating the deliverableHow to convert a successful workflow into a reusable skill or standard operating procedureWhy the finished blog post can become the source of truth for newsletters and social contentHow to build specialized skills and connect them through an orchestrated workflowRyan Robinson is an experienced content creator, blogger, entrepreneur, and the founder of RightBlogger. He has built a successful online presence across blogging, YouTube, podcasting, and major digital publications, helping hundreds of thousands of people improve their content and grow their reach.Connect with Ryan on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/theryanrobinson/ About Leveraging AIThe Ultimate AI Course for Business People: https://multiplai.ai/ai-course/YouTube Full Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@Multiplai_AI/Connect with Isar Meitis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isarmeitis/ Join our Live Sessions, AI Hangouts and newsletter: https://services.multiplai.ai/eventsIf you've enjoyed or benefited from some of the insights of this episode, leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, and let us know what you learned, found helpful, or liked most about this show!

In this episode of the Harvest Growth Podcast, Jon LaClare sits down with Matt Olen of Grip Spritz to reveal how a struggling product found new life through a smarter target market, relentless content creation, and strategic Amazon optimization.Grip Spritz originally served the golf industry, but the team recognized that the product could solve a much more urgent problem for basketball players: slippery shoes and dusty courts. Matt explains how they repositioned the product for basketball, traveled to tournaments to demonstrate it firsthand, and earned credibility by winning over respected coaches, athletes, and industry leaders.The conversation also explores the Amazon changes that helped unlock rapid growth. Grip Spritz had already built significant brand awareness through years of social media and in-person marketing—but its Amazon listing was incorrectly placed in the gardening category. Once the listing was rebuilt and moved into sporting goods, the company was finally positioned to capture the demand it had already created. A goal of $25,000 in annual sales quickly turned into approximately $100,000 during one fourth quarter alone.Matt also breaks down the content system that keeps Grip Spritz visible across seven social media platforms. By publishing three core videos across multiple channels every day, recreating proven content, answering customer objections, and giving audiences a behind-the-scenes look at the company, the brand remains consistently top of mind without reinventing its strategy every morning.In today's episode of the Harvest Growth Podcast, we cover:How to identify a more profitable market for an existing productWhy repositioning can be more effective than abandoning a struggling brandHow live demonstrations and trusted industry voices build product credibilityThe Amazon listing mistake that prevented Grip Spritz from reaching its audienceHow organic social media can create demand before a product is widely availableMatt's system for publishing 21 video posts across seven platforms every dayWhy recreating successful content often works better than constantly chasing new ideasHow responding to comments turns customer questions into effective marketing contentWhy founder-led videos help customers feel like they are buying from a person—not a corporationHow local manufacturing helps Grip Spritz respond to sudden demand and avoid Amazon stockoutsWhy complementary products, bundles, and accessories can increase average order valueHow attainable goals help founders maintain momentum during the difficult early stages of growthIf you have an older product, a plateauing brand, or an eCommerce business that needs a new growth strategy, this episode offers a practical lesson in meeting customers where they are, creating consistent demand, and going deeper into the problems your business already solves.Want to learn more about Matt and Grip Spritz?Visit GripSpritz.com or follow Grip Spritz on your favorite social media platform to explore its shoe traction, team, and court-care products.Do you have a product or brand you'd like to launch, reposition, or scale?Visit HarvestGrowth.com to book a free consultation and discover how the Perfect Launch Blueprint can help you identify the right audience, messaging, offer, and marketing strategy before you invest heavily in advertising.
A publisher with 10% monthly churn loses 70% of its subscribers in a year.In this episode, Pete sits down with Tyler from Newsletter Glue to break down subscriber churn, and where it actually starts. Tyler shares a real case: a publisher with a large subscriber base that grew for six years, then plateaued and started sliding. The cause wasn't pricing or content. They had never sent a single newsletter, not once, in six years.Newsletter engagement is one of the strongest predictors of retention. Subscribers who open newsletters regularly are about twice as likely to still be subscribed 12 months later. Pete lays out six concrete moves publishers can make to close the gap: drip campaigns for niche and news publishers, tracking quiet subscribers, fixing involuntary churn from failed payments, smarter cancel flows, cutting login friction, and pricing levers that reduce renewal pain points.What you'll learn:Why involuntary churn (failed payments) accounts for 20-40% of all churn, and how Stripe's payment intents plus services like ChurnBuster can cut it by 40% or moreHow The Moss Report's 18-email drip series onboards new readers like a course, and how the Wall Street Journal targets 100 days of engagementWhy niche publishers should package a drip series (not a single newsletter), while news publishers should build habit and routine around a fixed send timeHow personalization, like Mexico News Daily's opt-in regional editions, drives the highest engagement ratesWhy tracking "quiet" paid subscribers lets you intervene before they churn, and why archive content often outperforms fresh contentWhy the cancel flow matters: offering pauses, discounts, or downgrades before a subscriber leavesHow removing login friction with automatic login (Flowletter + Newsletter Glue) reduces support tickets and churnWhy monthly vs. annual pricing changes your churn exposure, and how tiered "good, better, best" plans give you a downgrade path instead of a cancellationResources mentioned:Newsletter Glue: newsletterglue.comLeaky Paywall: leakypaywall.comFlowletter: leakypaywall.com/flowletterList Builder: leakypaywall.com/list-builderLeaky Paywall Insights: insights.leakypaywall.comThe Publisher's AI Survival Guide (free): publisherrevenue.com/tool/the-publishers-ai-survival-guide/The Moss Report: themossreport.comMexico News Daily: mexiconewsdaily.comChurnBuster: churnbuster.io

This week on PT Breakfast Club, Tony Maritato, Dave Kittle, and Jimmy McKay look at a real physical therapy Instagram ad and ask a simple question:Would this actually make someone take action?The answer leads to a bigger conversation about physical therapy marketing, cluttered ads, weak offers, fake scarcity, AI-generated creative, trendjacking, TikTok Shop, LinkedIn recruiting, and how clinics can earn attention without looking like everyone else.The crew talks about why “free physical therapy” may not be the irresistible offer some clinics think it is, why too many visuals and calls-to-action can make an ad feel cheap, and why AI can help create marketing but still needs a human being to check whether the final product makes sense.They also get into Dave's orange square LinkedIn post, Tony's AI-generated Home Depot knee replacement image, and whether viral content is worth anything if it does not connect back to revenue.The big takeaway:You cannot interrupt a pattern if you do not have a pattern.In this episodeWhy many PT ads feel cluttered or cheapThe problem with “free PT” as a marketing hookWhy scarcity needs to feel realHow AI-generated ads can fail without human reviewWhat PTs can learn from trendjacking and meme cultureWhy attention only matters if it connects to a business goalHow TikTok Shop could become an opportunity for PT creatorsWhy Dave's orange square LinkedIn post workedHow clinic owners can create better behind-the-scenes contentWhy clear beats clever, and clear definitely beats clutterBest quote“You can't interrupt a pattern if you don't have a pattern.”
Every AI tool you use was built to keep you happy, not to make you right. That's a problem when "happy" is also the fastest route to content nobody remembers.Sonja Silveira has run content teams at Meta, athenahealth, and now Cisco, and she's done with the idea that AI is either a job-killer or a magic answer box. Her real argument: these tools are optimized for engagement, not accuracy, which means the marketers using them need more suspicion, not less. She also names the thing most B2B brands won't say out loud — they all sound the same now, AI just sped up the slide into sameness, and the fix has nothing to do with the tools.We also cover:Why treating AI like "an answer machine" is the fastest way to lose your edge — and what to check before you trust a single stat it gives youThe real reason beigefication isn't new, why it's "safe," and why safe is exactly what's killing your contentWhy almost every B2B brand that tries to become a media company hits the same wall — and what Cisco's Story Lab is doing differently

Stop building your personal brand around what you do — build it around how you live.If your personal brand feels off, forced, or just not working, there's a good chance you're focusing on the wrong thing.

In this video, Chris Cash breaks down why that approach fails and introduces a lifestyle-first personal branding strategy that actually works for creators, entrepreneurs, and anyone building in public.In this video you'll learn:Why "content-first" branding feels empty (and what to do instead)The Signal vs. Spread framework for building a brand with staying powerHow to document your real life instead of manufacturing contentWhy building in public — including the low points — creates deeper audience loyaltyThe 3-step process Chris uses: define the destination life, document before you create, and let the algorithm follow the lifeChris Cash is a Las Vegas-based realtor, media company builder, music artist, father, and youth sports coach documenting the full journey at Cashavelli TV.

When the vacuum cleaner was invented, slightly dusty floors became socially unacceptable overnight. According to Mark Eggers, co-founder of micro learning platform Yarno, AI is doing exactly the same thing to your output expectations, and he's not wrong.In this episode, I'm joined by Mark and Tom Bailey, Head of Learning at OFX and L&D Professional of the Year 2025, broadcasting from Australia at a deeply unreasonable hour. We cover the attention economy, what it's actually doing to your employees, and why "proud to announce" is not a communications strategy.We get into:Why the average knowledge worker toggles between apps 1,200 times a day, and what that means for learning designThe quiz-first model, spaced repetition, and why "cheating" in micro learning is actually the whole pointAIDA — and why L&D routinely skips from Awareness straight to Action and then wonders why no one shows upThe internal marketing moves that drove 91% completion on genuinely dry commercial contentWhy a great campaign and a mediocre product will always kill each otherTom's take: marketing and sales skills are non-negotiable for modern L&D practitioners. Mark's take: someone in your C-suite needs to be on camera. My take: both of them are right, and most L&D teams are doing neither.A sharp, honest conversation about attention, engagement, and why the learning industry needs to stop navel-gazing and start competing for the eyeballs it's losing.
Getting likes, saves, and shares on your content feels good — but if it's not bringing clients through the door, it's worth asking why.

In this episode, Justin joins Wistia's Chris Savage to break down why 95% of B2B marketing efforts go into creation, while the actual marketing, getting people to see it, gets almost nothing. He explains why the Google-dependent era is over, why publish and pray is a dead strategy, and what it actually looks like to build a content engine that compounds over time.Justin walks through his 3C Content Framework and shows how a single piece of content, properly mapped and repurposed, can generate 361x the impressions of the original. He draws a sharp line between micro repurposing, turning a podcast clip into a clip, and macro repurposing, using ideas to change how an entire audience thinks about your category. The second one is where the real leverage lives.The conversation also gets into AI's role in the repurposing workflow, why content burnout is almost always a systems problem rather than a creativity problem, and why the marketers who survive the next decade will be the ones who stop filling calendars and start building flywheels.What You'll LearnWhy hitting publish is where most marketing hasn't even started yetThe 3C Content Framework and how to build a full content ecosystem from one ideaThe difference between micro and macro repurposing and why most teams only do oneHow to use social as a validation layer before investing in bigger contentWhy 80% of what your team creates could be cut without losing resultsHow AI fits into the repurposing workflow and what to never let it doThe distribution flywheel and how to lock in channels and let topics flow through themHow to beat content burnout before it beats you***WHEN YOU'RE READY♻️ Distribution First Newsletter

Your biggest advantage in marketing right now isn't better ads. It's understanding what actually makes people buy — and it's probably not what your feed is telling you.Rage bait is everywhere. It gets views. It gets engagement. But it doesn't build trust — and it definitely doesn't drive real revenue in B2B.In this episode, we sit down with Jason Levin, co-founder of Memelord.com, to break down why meme marketing is quietly outperforming rage bait, how humor builds trust with high-value buyers, and the exact systems top marketers are using to scale meme-driven acquisition.The deeper insight: the best marketers aren't chasing attention — they're engineering relatability at scale.You'll learn how to operationalize memes across multiple accounts, why “remixing” is the real creative advantage, and how to turn humor into a repeatable growth engine.If you're thinking about distribution in 2026, this is a playbook most companies still aren't using.GuestJason Levin — co-founder of Memelord.com, an AI-powered meme marketing platform helping companies scale humor, distribution, and content velocity through AI-generated memes and multi-account social strategies.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/iamjasonlevinX: https://x.com/iamjasonlevinWhat You'll LearnWhy rage bait drives views… but fails to convert high-value customersThe difference between attention farming and buyer-driven attentionHow meme marketing builds trust faster than traditional contentWhy humor is a lever — not a strategy replacementHow to run multiple niche meme accounts for different ICPsWhy remixing content beats originality in modern distributionHow AI is enabling meme velocity at scaleWhy relationships still outperform automation in closing dealsTimestamps00:00 - Introduction to Meme Marketing00:21 - Guest Introduction: Jason Levin from Memelord.com00:41 - Memes vs Rage Bait Marketing01:13 - Tactical Meme Marketing Strategies02:24 - The Importance of Branding and Trust03:27 - Rage Bait vs Smart Bait Philosophy05:01 - Why Meme Marketing Drives Revenue06:43 - Building Trust in B2B Through Humor08:13 - Niche Meme Accounts and High-LTV Distribution10:19 - The Problem with Rage Bait Culture in Silicon Valley15:00 - Inside Memelord.com: Product, Demo & AI Tools30:43 - Scaling Distribution, Verified Orgs & MeasurementKey Topics & Insights1. Rage Bait Gets Attention — But Not RevenueThere's a growing belief that anger = growth.But here's the reality:Rage bait attracts the wrong audience.It pulls in:Low-intent usersPeople looking to argueLow purchasing-power audiencesThe problem: High-value buyers don't respond to manipulation — they recognize it.And when trust is broken, conversion dies.The takeaway: Views are not revenue.2. Meme Marketing = Relatability at ScaleMemes work because they create instant recognition.Instead of forcing attention, they generate:Emotional alignmentShared pain pointsFast trust-building through humorWhen people feel understood, they convert faster.3. Humor Is a Lever, Not a StrategyMemes don't replace strategy — they amplify it.Smart marketing stacks multiple levers:Educational contentLong-form trust buildingPaid acquisitionHumor as distribution acceleration4. Remixing Is the Real Growth EngineModern content velocity comes from remixing, not originality.Instead of creating from scratch:Take what's already trendingApply your ICP's pain pointAdd context and distributionThis is how meme engines scale.5. Multi-Account Distribution StrategyScaling meme marketing requires fragmentation:Multiple niche accountsEach targeting a specific personaEach speaking in a tailored voiceThis creates parallel distribution channels instead of relying on one brand feed.6.

PAID TO BE A CYCLE BREAKER - Get Your Ticket Here https://www.skool.com/breadwinner-energy-club-7485 The coaching industry is a multi-billion dollar machine and it was not built for you.The frameworks are white. The pricing psychology is white. The launch models are white. And the “manifesting”? Stripped from traditions that white women repackaged and sold back to you without credit, context, or medicine.In this episode of the Breadwinner Energy® Podcast, I'm breaking down what it actually looks like to decolonize your business not as a concept, but as a daily practice. I'm naming the five colonial systems that have been passed down through your family line and showing up in your business right now: silence and obedience, hustle culture, disconnection from intuition, over-giving, and limited access to wealth and power.Then I'm giving you five things you can decolonize in your business today your offer structure, your pricing, your sales process, your content, and your definition of success.If you're a woman of color building a healing based business and something has always felt off about the strategies you've been taught — it's because they were never made for someone like you. This episode is your permission slip to burn the map and build the road.This episode covers:What decolonization actually means (and what it doesn't)The 5 colonial systems still running your life and businessHow patriarchal and colonial frameworks show up in pricing, offers, sales, and contentWhy hustle culture is a colonial inheritance, not a work ethicHow to stop over-delivering, over-explaining, and doing emotional labor for clientsWhy reclaimed wealth is more than money — it's time, health, peace, and legacyHow to build from YOUR roots instead of someone else's template1. Silence and ObedienceColonial systems rewarded women especially women of color for being quiet, compliant, and self-sacrificing. In business, this shows up as diluting your messaging, softening your truth, and making yourself palatable for audiences that were never yours to serve.2. Hustle CultureHustle, struggle, and sacrifice have been glorified for generations. it's a colonial inheritance. Decolonizing your business means allowing yourself to rest, to build wealth in a way that feels good, and to stop treating burnout as proof that you're doing it right.3. Disconnection from Intuition and Cultural RootsSystems like organized religion and Western education were designed to make women distrust their own inner knowing. Your intuition, your cultural wisdom, your ancestral practices — these are not “woo.” They are your competitive advantage and the foundation of your medicine.4. Over-GivingIf you're over-delivering, over-explaining, and doing emotional labor for your clients — that's not leadership. That's codependency. Decolonizing your business means teaching your clients to be empowered, not dependent. It means charging for your energy, not just your time.5. Limited Access to Wealth and PowerWomen of color have been historically excluded from wealth, ownership, and leadership. Decolonizing your business means rewriting your relationship with money, power, and leadership — and building wealth from a place of truth rather than trauma.Then I give you 5 things to decolonize right now: your offer structure, your pricing model, your sales process, your content strategy, and your definition of success.

There are more channels available to coaches today than ever before. Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, podcasts, email, stages, books, events. The list keeps going. And that's exactly the problem.This is Step 4 in our 7-part series on moving your coaching business from one-to-one to one-to-many. If you haven't listened to Steps 1 through 3 covering payoff, math, and audience, go back and start there. The channel decision only makes sense once those pieces are in place.In this episode, Adam and Jess break down what a channel actually is, why picking too many kills your momentum, and how to identify the one or two channels that actually align with who you are and where your avatar already lives.What You'll LearnWhat a channel is and why your coaching business needs one before it needs contentWhy coaches who try to show up everywhere end up getting results nowhereThe "where does the bear live?" framework for identifying which channel your avatar actually usesWhy the engagement you're getting on personal posts is not the same as the engagement you need for your businessThe difference between social media as a social tool vs. a business growth toolWhy one or two channels done consistently beats five channels done sporadically every single timeHow Adam and Jess each built six and seven figure businesses using completely different channelsWhat commitment actually means when the mood to post has completely left the buildingWhy the coaches you're comparing yourself to have full media teams behind them and you don't need one yetWhat comes next in Step 5: connecting with the audience you're buildingTimestamps00:00 What channels are and why this conversation matters00:47 How to define a channel in the context of your coaching business01:40 Where we are in the 7-part series02:02 Every channel that exists and why listing them all is already overwhelming02:47 Why you don't have to do them all and why the coaches you admire have teams doing it for them04:46 The bear hunting framework: who is your bear and where does it live?06:33 Why loving a channel and your avatar living there are two different things08:57 One channel to start, maybe two, never more right now10:59 Be intentional and systematic before adding anything new12:05 What actually happens when you post educational content and get five likes14:13 Consistency is time on task over time, not a one-week experiment15:57 What commitment really means when results are slow17:27 Why posting three to five times a day is not the message19:22 Smaller and simpler is the strategy right now, not a limitation22:01 Rory Vaden's content diamond is great but not where you start24:06 Everything ILC does is duplicatable and that's the whole point24:38 Preview of Step 5: connecting through your channelQuotes From This Episode"A channel is any mechanism you're pulling to connect with other people. You're going to pick the way that works best with who you are, where you like to show up, and most strategically where your avatar lives." - Jess"Where does the bear live? You have to understand where this avatar is already engaging. Because if you love Instagram but your bear lives on Facebook, you've got a problem." - Adam"The message is not do it all. Don't suddenly become a content machine because that will burn you out and you won't be able to deliver to the group at a high level." - Jess"Commitment is doing the thing you said you were going to do long after the original mood you set it in had left you." - Adam"You just have to figure out what you're coaching, who you're coaching, how they like to consume information, and then build a mechanism that helps you meet them where they are." - Jess"This is not a content podcast. This is a channel podcast. Choosing the channel so you can connect with the avatars you intend to connect with.

Picture this: you're cruising down the highway, passing billboard after billboard without really registering any of them. Then hunger strikes, and suddenly that McDonald's sign is the only thing you can see.That's how marketing works: you're not introducing yourself once and hoping for the best. You're showing up again and again, so that when your client's _"I need a photographer!"_ moment finally hits, yours is the name that comes to mind.But here's the catch: even when someone is ready to pull off at the next exit and book, their brain starts throwing up speed bumps: questions about pricing, worries about their messy house, uncertainty about how the whole process works.In this episode, Annemie and Dayna break down how to use your email and social media marketing to sand down those speed bumps before someone even _thinks_ about booking, making the decision to hire you feel easy, obvious, and overdue.In this episode, we cover:The rule of seven, and why the repetition in your marketing isn't annoying, it's necessaryFour of the most common client hesitations and how to address each oneHow to turn your FAQs and prep guide into a steady stream of evergreen contentWhy a clear, specific call to action matters more than you think (and what "vague booking" is costing you)By the end, you'll have a whole new way to think about your social and email content... less like a relentless content treadmill, more like a helpful guide walking your ideal clients right to your door.Sign up for The Darkroom, our free companion app to the podcast: thiscantbethathard.com/darkroomResources:New to the podcast?

What if your company already has dozens of thought leaders—you just haven't unlocked them yet?In this episode, Laura Pursley shares how a simple interview process helped transform internal expertise into a scalable content engine.

And in this conversation, we cut straight through the hype.AI doesn't replace reps.AI doesn't replace discipline.AI doesn't replace clarity, voice, or execution.What it does do is expose the gaps.If you don't know how to show up consistently… AI won't fix that.If you don't know how to communicate clearly… AI won't fix that.If you're avoiding the work… AI just makes that more obvious.This episode isn't about chasing trends or “prompt hacks.”It's about using AI the right way — as a multiplier, not a crutch.
