If you've ever asked yourself, “Where in my episode should I put my call to action?” — this one's for you. Because even if your CTA is perfectly worded, it won't drive action if it's in the wrong spot or the listener payoff isn't clear.And if your audience isn't taking the next step, you're not just missing out on listener engagement—it's a hidden leak in your lead flow, costing you potential clients and revenue you don't even realize you're losing.In this episode, we're breaking down exactly where to place your calls to action, how to track if they're working, and what to do with that data once you have it. Plus, I give you a super simple CTA framework you can swipe and start using in your next episode.So if you're tired of giving CTAs that feel awkward (and you're ready to say yours like a human and finally know if it's doing what you want it to do) hit play and let's dive in.1:00 – The Worst Place to Put Your CTA (and Why It Turns Cold Listeners Off)2:40 – The Only “Rule” for CTA Placement That Actually Matters3:22 – Where Your CTA Actually Belongs (Hint: It's Not Pre-roll, Mid-roll, or Post-roll)6:52 – Why Saying Your CTA Like a Human Gets More Clicks (and Builds Trust)9:08 – The 3 Parts Every Strong CTA Should Include13:03 – How to Test, Track, and Tweak Your CTAs for Better ResultsOther Episodes You'll Love:How Do I Give a Podcast CTA That Doesn't Sound Salesy?→ This episode was recorded on the Deity VO-7USupport the showLiked this episode?

If you're a coach, content creator, service provider, or blogger and you're still betting on Instagram to grow your business, this episode of The Blogger Genius Podcast might just change your mind. My guest, Scott Aaron, a top LinkedIn expert and author of The LinkedIn Book for Sales and Marketing, shares why LinkedIn is where the real business-building magic happens—and how to tap into it even if you're not a "corporate type."

Cyber threats are not static—and HITRUST knows assurance can't be either. That's why HITRUST's Michael Moore is leading efforts to ensure the HITRUST framework evolves in step with the threat environment, business needs, and the technologies teams are using to respond.In this episode, Moore outlines how the HITRUST Cyber Threat Adaptive (CTA) program transforms traditional assessment models into something far more dynamic. Instead of relying on outdated frameworks or conducting audits that only capture a point-in-time view, HITRUST is using real-time threat intelligence, breach data, and frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK and MITRE ATLAS to continuously evaluate and update its assessment requirements.The E1 and I1 assessments—designed for organizations at different points in their security maturity—serve as flexible baselines that shift with current risk. Moore explains that by leveraging CTA, HITRUST can add or update controls in response to rising attack patterns, such as the resurgence of phishing or the emergence of AI-driven exploits. These updates are informed by a broad ecosystem of signals, including insurance claims data and AI-parsed breach reports, offering both frequency and impact context.One of the key advantages Moore highlights is the ability for security teams to benefit from these updates without having to conduct their own exhaustive analysis. As Moore puts it, “You get it by proxy of using our frameworks.” In addition to streamlining how teams manage and demonstrate compliance, the evolving assessments also support conversations with business leaders and boards—giving them visibility into how well the organization is prepared for the threats that matter most right now.HITRUST is also planning to bring more of this intelligence into its assessment platform and reports, including showing how individual assessments align with the top threats at the time of certification. This not only strengthens third-party assurance but also enables more confident internal decision-making—whether that's about improving phishing defenses or updating incident response playbooks.From AI-enabled moderation of threats to proactive regulatory mapping, HITRUST is building the connective tissue between risk intelligence and real-world action.Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Michael Moore, Senior Manager, Digital Innovation at HITRUST | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mhmoore04/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | https://www.seanmartin.com/Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | https://www.marcociappelli.com/______________________Keywords: sean martin, marco ciappelli, michael moore, hitrust, cybersecurity, threat intelligence, risk management, compliance, assurance, ai security, brand story, brand marketing, marketing podcast, brand story podcast______________________ResourcesVisit the HITRUST Website to learn more: https://itspm.ag/itsphitwebLearn more and catch more stories from HITRUST on ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/hitrustLearn more about ITSPmagazine Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story

If your Instagram growth has stalled or you're creating content that no one's seeing, this episode is for you. In part two of our three-part growth series, I'm breaking down five underused Instagram strategies that are working right now in 2025 — including the truth about collabs, remix reels, outbound engagement, and how to use your platforms to boost IG followers (without sounding desperate). What You'll Learn:[01:52] Why collaboration is still one of the fastest ways to grow your audience[05:17] How to use Instagram's collab feature properly (and what Meta recommends)[09:34] How remixing reels got my studio account 14 M+ views[12:41] Going live with aligned creators to build relationships and visibility[15:26] Why outbound engagement still works (when you do it right)[18:09] The “invisible ask” most people forget — and how to do it with heart[21:20] How to boldly ask for visibility without sounding cringy[22:49] Behind the scenes of my Hot Reels program and private mentorship offersKey Takeaways:Instagram collabs aren't just cute, they're conversion tools. Learn how to use Instagram's collab feature strategically and why the account with the bigger following should host.Remix reels are still one of the most powerful visibility hacks. Use them to ride existing engagement, but add your own spin.Instagram Lives still work — especially when done with aligned brands. Local businesses? This is a missed opportunity you need to explore.Outbound engagement is free visibility. Leaving thoughtful comments in your niche can attract ideal followers (and create real relationships).You're probably forgetting the easiest CTA: ask for the follow. Your email list, Facebook audience, and other platforms can be powerful amplifiers, if you remember to ask.Links + Resources Mentioned:Replay: The Reel Remix Strategy Behind My 8.8M View Viral Video (Part 2)My Guest Episode on the Social Media Marketing Podcast: Instagram Content Strategy: Attracting Quality Leads and SalesHow I Manifested This Opportunity: What It Really Takes to Create Bold Visibility (and Attract High-Level Opportunities)Join the Hot Reels 12-Month IG Content Lab WaitlistApply for a Free Instagram Breakthrough SessionCONNECT WITH YOUR HOST, ELIZABETH MARBERRY:WORK WITH ELIZABETH Apply for your FREE Instagram Breakthrough Session with Elizabeth Free guide to Monetize Your IG: Seven Simple and Proven Ways to Finally Make Money on Instagram Follow Elizabeth Marberry on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook Please be sure to rate, review and follow the show on Apple podcasts (or wherever you find your podcasts) so we can get this free value to other people who need it.

You KNOW you should give a call to action in every podcast episode. But every time you sit down to record, your brain short-circuits — should you tell them to follow the show? Join your list? Download the freebie? Book a call? Support your sponsor? Buy your thing? Say too much and you sound desperate. Say too little and you miss your chance to turn listeners into leads.In this episode, I'm breaking down the real reason CTAs feel awkward, the difference between a call to engage and a call to action (yes, they're different), what to say instead of stacking five random asks at the end of your episode, and how to say exactly what listener needs to hear to take the next step. If you've ever felt unsure of what to offer, how to offer it, or afraid of pushing people away when you do — this is the missing link between your content and your conversions.Ready to give a podcast CTA that feels good and actually converts?

"Oh, the people you'll meet, and the places you'll go..."That classic Dr. Seuss line couldn't have been more true when I found myself at a rare disease conference, taking with Dr. Gabriel Cohn. A quiet presence with a resume that reads like a roadmap through the last 30 years of rare disease breakthroughs, Dr. Cohn is the kind of person who reminds you just how much heart and science it takes to change lives.Dr. Gabe Cohn is the Executive Director and Medical Director of the Rosenau Family Research Foundation. He stepped into the role in October, bringing with him over three decades of experience that spans academic medicine and the biotechnology industry. A licensed, board-certified Clinical Geneticist and Obstetrician-Gynecologist, Dr. Cohn has contributed to the development of multiple therapeutics aimed at treating rare genetic disorders—a career built on both clinical precision and compassionate innovation.Beyond RFRF, he's also the Chief Medical Officer at iECURE, Inc., a biotech company pioneering gene editing therapies for rare diseases. His prior leadership roles at Homology Medicines, AVROBIO, OvaScience, and Shire reflect a steady focus on advancing gene therapy and editing platforms. Since 2017 alone, he's played a pivotal role in getting five different cell and gene therapy programs past the critical regulatory gatekeeping stages of IND and CTA submissions.Dr. Cohn isn't just a scientist—he's a builder, a connector, and a relentless advocate for the potential of genetic medicine to rewrite the future for patients with rare diseases.If you would like to get a hold of the Rosenau Foundation: https://rosenaufoundation.org Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredThanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en

1188. En este capitulo cercano al cierre de esta sexta temporada me apetecía compartir cómo he organizado la producción de este podcast diario, episodio a episodio, a lo largo de estos últimos 190 capítulos. Un ejercicio de revisión y de autoconciencia sobre lo que ha funcionado, lo que ha cambiado, y también lo que quiero ajustar de cara a la próxima temporada. Desde la publicación de los capítulos cada viernes en la versión premium, ‘El destilado del micrófono' hasta el episodio del viernes siguiente en abierto, todo sigue un proceso muy definido (aunque no inamovible). Para poder lanzar esa versión avanzada, tengo que preparar los guiones, grabar, editar, y publicar cada capítulo con bastante antelación. A diferencia de las primeras temporadas, donde grababa casi de un día para otro, ahora todo va con semanas de margen. Las ideas salen de un listado que voy alimentando en Notion, que comienza meses antes, sobre todo durante los meses de verano, momento en el que aprovecho para planificar en bloque. Las grabaciones, antes en falso directo, han pasado a hacerse por bloques, editando después con una plantilla definida. Pensando en separar posteriormente las intros, los CTA, las despedidas… del contenido principal del día. Una vez está listo el contenido, recurro a ChatGPT para generar títulos, descripciones, SEO, hashtags y mensajes para redes sociales. Eso sí, todo lo reviso personalmente para que se adapte a mi tono, estilo y forma de expresarme. Aprovecho esas sugerencias, las adapto y las uso tanto en mi web como en las redes y posteriormente en Ko-fi, donde republico los episodios pasados para seguir dándoles vida. Además, cada sábado lanzo una encuesta para elegir el capítulo más destacado de la semana, y utilizo esa información no solo para aprender qué contenidos han gustado más, sino también para decidir cuáles redifundir durante el verano como repaso con los mejores episodios. Ha sido una temporada muy intensa, con muchos cambios en el método de trabajo y con la incorporación de herramientas como la inteligencia artificial, pero también con mucho aprendizaje de algunos de esos cambios que no han funcionado como esperaba._________________Consigue tu entrada para el directo de '¿Cómo ye la tu movida?' el 27 de junio en las Podnights Madrid a través de Eventbrite https://www.eventbrite.es/e/entradas-como-ye-la-tu-movida-en-podnights-madrid-1401428262659_________________¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

ABOUT THIS EPISODE: In this deeply personal solo episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on one of the most transformational shifts I've made in my business—and life. If you've ever felt successful on the outside but misaligned on the inside, this episode is for you. I'm sharing the truth about what happens when your strategy outpaces your sovereignty, and how I reclaimed my business, message, and leadership by choosing alignment over adrenaline. We'll dive into the identity recalibration that allowed me to stop abandoning myself inside my own success, how I restructured my business to support my nervous system (not just revenue goals), and why letting go—not doing more—is often the missing piece. I'll walk you through how I simplified everything, honored my energy, and began creating content that doesn't just perform, but resonates deeply. If you're ready to stop building from obligation and start leading from embodiment, this episode is your invitation to rise. Liked this episode?

They buy your standard, they buy the version of you that they see and that they spot, and that they think ‘I want, what she has.'” - Julie Solomon  “ This is the distinction. Clients reaching out saying, ‘this post literally felt like it was written for me. Are you in my brain? Are you in my soul? Sales came in from content that didn't even have a call to action on it,' which if you know me, I love a good CTA, but this is where resonance does what tactics can't. This is why the messaging frameworks that I have built, I have created, that I have tested, that I now share with my clients work. Because they don't just teach you what to say. They teach you how to say it in a way that only you can.” - Julie Solomon RESOURCES: [JOIN MY VISIBILITY TRAINING] With just 1 hour a week, my proven content framework will help you refine your messaging and turn your offers into consistent, scalable sales.

Hello to you listening in Warsaw, Poland!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.I am deeply proud of my Polish heritage and being a lawyer. These times are tough on us all; but especially on judges, the last line of freedom's defense. Attacks on the independence of the judiciary are not just here in America; they are sweeping the globe taking varied forms ranging from the capture of courts to direct attacks and interference against judges and lawyers. Those behind the attacks know that the independence of judges - the judicial branch of government - is foundational to democracy.“Judicial independence is fundamental to the rule of law. The rule of law is fundamental to freedom. Freedom is fundamental to the protection of every citizen.” [John Macmenamin - Judge at the Supreme Court of IrelandThese are not my words. These are the words of John Macmenamin, a judge at the Supreme Court of Ireland who joined with Polish judges at the “1000 Robes March”, a unique event held in the name of judicial independence.It was the greatest demonstration of judges in contemporary Europe, with more than 30,000 people, including hundreds of judges from 22 European countries marching in solidarity with their Polish colleagues in the fight for judicial independence. The silent march in January 2020 was a reaction to proposed laws that threatened to undermine the judiciary's independence in Poland.  "A Thousand Robes" is a short (12 minute) documentary film directed by Kacper Lisowski. The story is about mutual gratitude, focusing on the positive interactions between judges, lawyers, and the public. It highlights citizens who are moved by the judges' defense of their rights and lawyers who have experienced solidarity from ordinary people and European judges. The film serves as a warning against what dismantling the democratic mechanisms of the state leads to.Documenting this touching episode of the dramatic struggle for the rule of law that still lacks a happy ending in Poland, Kacper Lisowski also talks to the European judges participating in the march of a thousand robes.

Welcome back to the Empower Her Business Accelerator podcast! I'm your host, Philippa Channer, and this month we're digging into the business activities that actually drive your growth. If you've been tuning in regularly, you know we're on a journey to help you build a smarter, more intentional business—one that works for you and not the other way around. Last week in Episode 182, we focused on identifying the tasks that genuinely move your business forward. This week, we're taking that knowledge a step further—because knowing what matters is one thing, but knowing what to do first is where the magic happens. Prioritizing effectively is what helps you move out of reaction mode and into your CEO mindset, where you're confidently steering the ship, not scrambling to bail water. So whether you're mapping out your next big launch, managing a team, or still wearing all the hats—this episode is designed to help you find clarity, ditch the busywork, and create real momentum. ⏱️ Timestamps & Key Segments (00:00) Welcome & Episode Overview We begin by grounding ourselves in the “why.” Summer is a strategic season—while many slow down, it's your chance to ramp up for a powerful fall. I remind you how the Empower Her Program can support you during this planning phase. [INSERT LINK] to explore your options. (01:00) Step 1: Identify High-Value vs. Low-Value Tasks All tasks are not created equal—and if you're spending hours tweaking your website or organizing your inbox, it might be time to reassess. I share a real example where I spent four hours trying to automate something that only saves me 15 minutes per week. That's a classic case of a low-value rabbit hole. High-value tasks? Think lead generation, offer creation, follow-ups, and collaborations—things that actually bring revenue or visibility.

Hello to you Indivisible Whidbey activists listening  in Oak Harbor, Coupeville, Greenbank, Freeland, Langley, Bayview, and Clinton on Whidbey Island, Washington!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.  On Friday 18th April, 2025 I posted my 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday episode entitled “What Difference Can 1 Ordinary Person Make?” about Granny D Haddock who walked across America in her 90th year to bring attention to campaign finance reform. Click HERE to access that episode.As Granny D walked across America she was asked to speak at rallies, churches, community gatherings, and the like. The following is a short piece from a speech Granny D delivered at the Buck Jackson Rodeo Arena in Pecos, Texas on May 14th, 1999:“Never be discouraged from being an activist because people tell you that you'll not succeed. You have already succeeded if you're out there representing truth or justice or compassion or fairness or love. You already have your victory because you are changing the world; you are changing the status quo; you are changing the chemistry of things. And changes will spread from you, will be easier to happen again in others because of you because, believe it or not you with your activism are the center of the world.”  CTA: Maybe like me you are coming to realize that activist work is not a job, but a calling to work together. We are called to work together to make the world a better place for all of us doing what we can with what we have for as long as we are needed.Thank you for listening and being one of us!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

What happens when creative power, marketing wisdom, and startup energy collide? In this episode, Jay sits down with Julie Matzen to explore the journey from agency leadership to startup empowerment. With honesty, laughter, and depth, they unpack the emotional architecture of business: the fear of becoming irrelevant, the power of validation, and the truth that failure isn't a wall—it's a lens.The conversation moves from the dangers of letting AI write your ad copy to the Gen X struggle of feeling unseen, all the way to the radical idea that access to wisdom should be affordable. Through shared metaphors, unapologetic insights, and unexpected childhood stories, Julie and Jay remind us that the real power in business—and in life—comes not from polish, but from presence."Don't let AI be your art. The paintbrush doesn't get the credit."Bio: Julie Matzen is the co-founder of Boarderline and founder of the MayDay Agency. With over 25 years in branding and digital strategy for top-tier brands, Julie now focuses on democratizing access to expert advisors for startups and mid-sized businesses. Through Boarderline, she's building a platform that empowers emerging entrepreneurs to gain real insights from the minds that helped build the world's biggest brands.

I am coaching a speaker as she prepares for one of the biggest keynotes of her career. Her story is powerful, full of resilience and triumph. As she runs through her story, I am captivated... until it just... stops. She smiles, says thank you, and that's it. There is no call to action and no invitation. I deliver the news, gently: her ending isn't serving her or the audience. She pushes back because she doesn't want to  sound salesy. And while I do definitely understand her concerns, I explain that, while her story hits hard, her ending needs to hit home. So we roll up the sleeves and get back to work, keeping the emotional core intact and reshaping her closing into a call to action that mirrors the emotional arc of her story. And guess what? It doesn't feel forced; her final line ties back to her opening message and invites the audience to step into their own transformation. When she takes the stage, the response is absolutely incredible. After delivering her Talk, a flurry of people approach her. One of them ends up booking her. Another one wants to feature her in an article. One person even tells her that the challenge she issued changed something significant for them.  In this episode of the Storytelling School Podcast, you'll learn why having a CTA (Call To Action) at the conclusion of your story is so important. In the process, you'll discover why your CTA needs to be consistent with the emotional tone of your story, and get answers to questions like: How can you get your message to ripple out further than the audience in front of you? What kind of change could you inspire if your story didn't simply end with “The End”? How do you turn an emotional story into impactful action?  What you will learn in this episode: Why your Talk needs a clear CTA (Call To Action)  What are the different CTA types and when to use them How to make sure that the CTA fits your story's emotional tone Why keeping things simple is crucial A little about me: Hi there. I'm Kymberlee. As a Speaking Strategist and founder of Storytelling School, I've had the pleasure of working with over 500 speakers, business leaders, and entrepreneurs worldwide for over a decade. No matter if those folks were getting ready to take the TED or TEDx stage or preparing for a high-stakes presentation with everything on the line, my specialty is High Stakes Short Form Communication. I've seen what works when influencing change and what doesn't. It turns out storytelling is one of the most powerful tools you can have in your arsenal. That's why I'm building a movement of master storytellers to affect change in the world on a global scale to help people tell real stories that have influence and impact. With effective storytelling, you change people's lives. Since competition for potential client attention is fierce, a story can make the difference between being memorable or irrelevant. You'll find me sharing my matcha tea mishap to discuss perfectionism, my quest for Bruce Lee and Hello Kitty art to explore kindness, or the six months of live blade training I underwent to illustrate presence. I spend my days showing the power of using stories to help cement ideas and bring lessons to life and teach my clients to do the same. If you think business owners can't tell stories or don't have stories to share with their clients, staff, donors, followers, or investors, I invite you to reconsider your perspective. There's no better place than in business to tell your stories so audiences, no matter how big or small, can understand how you think and what you value. Now it's your turn... If you're ready to become a master storyteller and effect change in our world, you've come to the right place.

Michael Martin, raised in a hardworking blue-collar community, embraced the same ethic. An entrepreneur at heart, he hustled from cutting grass when he was 12 to working all types of jobs including golf caddying and waiting at restaurants to starting businesses. Determined to transition into the white-collar working world and being at the right place at the right time, he was exposed to the financial markets.   He subsequently worked on Wall Street, managing commodity accounts. Despite the significant commissions, he realized that he could potentially earn more through an incentive fee. After three years at a brokerage firm, he started his own CTA. Emphasizing the importance of risk management, discipline, and emotional intelligence, and maintaining a mental edge in trading, he discusses his early experiences with commodities, the evolution of his trading strategies, and the significance of networking and mentorship.
