Copywriting Series #6 Is your end goal to be an expert and NOT a worker bee? Then listen up. You have to be able to talk about your services in a way that attracts clients. And that's the backbone of copywriting, and exactly why you need to invest time and energy into learning the marketing conversation.  It's not about blowing your own horn. It's about making your value clear and understood. And then standing in that value so that people want to pay you top dollar to do what you're really good at.  Our guest today — Michelle Hunter — will teach you how to articulate this value in writing. Michelle is a copywriter and content marketing strategist. For years she owned a successful six-figure creative agency with a virtual team where she helped clients refine their messaging, and write website and email copy. In this episode, she humbly brags about her $300/hr bill rate and 10k copywriting projects so that you can see the possibilities for yourself. But you won't find her on social, because she recently took a cush corporate job as a Communications Director.   Listen to this episode to learn: The copywriting methodology that convinces people to do what you want (use these powers for good now!)  How to communicate about your price & what to say if they think you're too expensive Two keys to writing that you'll have to conquer How to be confident that your copy converts   I know you'll relish her honesty, and after listening, my hope is you'll see this opportunity to better market your (and your clients') services and run with it.    Sponsored by The Virtual Writer with Michelle Hunter — an 8-week high-touch, intensive writing experience for virtual assistants to learn how to deliver highly-valued copywriting services and position themselves as a writing assistant and copywriter.

Copywriting Series #5 The popular persuasion principles used in sales copywriting can be used to convince people to buy a program that's not the right fit or spend thousands of dollars they don't have. As digital marketing assistants and specialists, we don't want this for our clients or ourselves. It's unethical, it's bad for business, and it's just gross.   That's why copywriter Tarzan Kay is here to break down what she's learned about coercive sales and email strategies since building her 7-figure copywriting business, and why she tore it all down.   Tarzan Kay teaches email marketing skills to online businesses, digital course creators, and freelance service providers. She came up in her career writing copy for popular programs in the online marketing space, and very soon created her own programs teaching business owners how to write story-powered emails. Now she's a leader in revealing how the use of Cialdini's principles of persuasion can cause harm, especially in the coaching industry. She has now dedicated her work to undoing that harm, and teaching sales strategies that leave space for conversation and critical thinking.   We are covering a lot in this episode from email marketing and sequences to storytelling sequences and style sheets.   You'll walk away with: The promo email you can't live without Why inbox management is a crucial responsibility The data point that Tarzan evaluates the success of her nurture emails What should be in your client's brand voice guide that you probably forgot Audio-email strategy Tarzan uses weekly How to be inclusive in your copywriting   You'll want to listen to this episode so you're in the loop on your client's behalf. You can make sure they're not using coercive copywriting and unconscious bias in their marketing. It really does start with us and the copy we put out; we can be leaders with our clients.   Sponsored by The Virtual Writer with Michelle Hunter — an 8-week high-touch, intensive writing experience for virtual assistants to learn how to deliver highly-valued copywriting services and position themselves as a writing assistant and copywriter.

In her 2015 book, Gloria Steinem described the National Women's Conference of 1977 as “the most important event nobody knows about.” The four-day event in Houston, Texas, which brought together 2,000 delegates and another 15,000-20,000 observers was the culmination of a commission appointed first by President Ford and then by President Carter, and was and funded by Congress for $5 million to investigate how federal legislation could best help women. The excited delegates believed that the conference would change history, so what happened, and why do so few people now even remember that it happened. Joining me to help us learn more about the National Women's Conference are Dr. Nancy Beck Young, the Moores Professor of History; and Dr. Elizabeth Rodwell, Assistant Professor of Digital Media, who are both on the leadership team for The Sharing Stories from 1977 project through the Center for Public History at the University of Houston.

National law and policy have the potential to transform the energy sector in Louisiana from one that is heavily reliant on fossil fuels to one that leans toward renewables and carbon capture. Experts at LSU Law Center say these anticipated changes will leave big impacts on the energy landscape and economy. Keith Hall, Director of the Mineral Law Institute and a professor of energy law at LSU Law Center, recently participated in a symposium to address these changes and concerns. He tells us more about how both market forces and government incentives are pushing Louisiana towards cleaner energy.  Eyes have been on the tech sector in Louisiana as a force to bring high-quality, well-paid jobs to the state, but access to broadband in rural areas and attracting tech employers remain challenges in the state.  As we blaze through the first quarter of 2023, Chris Stelly, executive group director of Entertainment and Digital Media with Louisiana Economic Development, gives us the latest on the tech economy, employment opportunities, and how to avoid the brain drain of young talent from our state. Since the Spring of 2022, a team of attorneys and advocates have been traveling to detention centers in Louisiana every few months to educate immigrants on their legal rights. The visits are vital to their work, allowing them access to these remote facilities. And the stories that detainees tell can be hard to take in. The Gulf States Newsroom's Bobbi-Jeanne Misick has been traveling with team members to understand what it takes to do this work. Today, we bring you the second part of her series on the Know Your Rights campaign. Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos. Our managing producer is Alana Schreiber and our digital editor is Katelyn Umholtz. Our engineers are Garrett Pittman and Aubry Procell.  You can listen to Louisiana Considered Monday through Friday at 12:00 and 7:30 pm. It's available on Spotify, Google Play, and wherever you get your podcasts.  Louisiana Considered wants to hear from you!

Author T.L Jackson returns to the show to talk about her new book, "Purpose Through The Pain." In the studio was her uncle "Marvin," who joined in on the conversation, briefly, to talk about the book and how his uncle, T. L is his inspiration. He too has a powerful story that we will share on the show later. But T. L., talk about her inspiration for the book and how it differs from her first book, "I'm Not A Hypocrite, I'm Human." She begins this new book in 2021 talking about how she had to remove the masks from her life to reveal her true self. The book is an easy-to-read short booklet talking about her brief period of her life where she found herself. The book also provides spaces to write notes and for reflection asking several key questions about purpose. The interview was another powerful one, and of my best and favorite. We are growing and this one show growth especially in the area of videography. It was also my first live in face-to-face video interviews that I have conducted for broadcast and my first face-to-face for audio in several podcast episodes. It was refreshing and powerful.

Copywriting Series #3 If you're holding on to all the copywriting questions: What to charge? Where to find clients? How to get started? What to focus on first? What niche to pick? And you're wondering how to get started with copywriting services, then this podcast episode you need to listen to. Whether you're looking for a side hustle or full-time income replacer, today's advice covers it all. Copywriting is a lucrative in-demand service, even with the introduction of AI writing tools.

Creating a customer-centric culture is all about showing up for those that matter most to you: yourself, your business, your employees, and your customers. Showing you care for them by creating an environment where they feel seen, valued and heard is what will make customer service truly great. The most important part of building a customer-focused culture is to give employees and leadership the freedom to make decisions with the customers' best interests in mind, not through setting rigid rules like many other businesses.We can ensure our customers receive the best service possible by demonstrating care and connecting with them before any transactions. Showing up for one another in the workspace has a positive effect on our clients. We are all consumers and should strive to build authentic relationships in order to align ourselves with what is important, and make an environment that welcomes each person's uniqueness.

In 2021, a famous Vietnamese businesswoman hosted a three-hour long Facebook livestream, in which she named and shamed celebrities for their controversial public behaviours. This formed part of a regular pattern of personal attacks, in which she weaponised livestreaming to denounce media and charity organisations in front of huge online audiences. This case marked a turning point in Vietnam, forcing the government to contend with growing political activity in the online environment, and prompting new digital media regulation. In this episode, Dr Jonathon Hutchinson joins Dr Natali Pearson to discuss this case and other examples of online socio-political activism in Vietnam, reflecting on the tension between social media influencing and digital media regulation, and highlighting its potential positive and negative effects.

An average day in the gaming entertainment world is anything but average. It might include a bit of script writing, some wrangling of VIPs in a green room, a lot of work behind the lens of a camera, a chunk of time editing content, and, of course, assembling a finished product. That sample then has to pass muster by a producer or sponsor before it ever makes it to any online platform. Our guest knows a lot about this process because it's what he does for a living!  Greg Elek, a 2015 graduate of Elyria High School, now makes his home in sunny California. He works for Enthusiast Gaming, an integrated gaming entertainment company, where he is a digital media editor and content creator on a host of products including NFL Tuesday Night Gaming. Greg joined us on Petey Podcast to talk about growing up in Elyria and working his way into the digital career he loves. Take a listen!It's a great day to be a Pioneer! Thanks for listening.

This week's episode goes out to the journalists in your life. (Or you, if you happen to be a journalist). According to one estimate, nearly 130,000 workers in tech and media have lost their job over the 12 months — and while we've talked about the annual ritual of media layoffs before, it's hard to avoid the feeling that we're finally reaching the end of the era of digital media as we know it. Is the current wave of layoffs and closures just more of the same, or a sign that writers and editors need to completely rethink what a career in media even looks like? How do digital publications actually make money — and what lessons can we learn, if any, from these suspiciously concurrent cuts in both tech and media? Lucky for you, we happen to have an old colleague in our Rolodex with an intimate understanding of the economics of the business (and how they got so broken). His name is Ben Dietz, and he's the creator of an excellent culture and technology newsletter called [SIC] Weekly. Prior to his current gig as chief strategy officer at NTWRK, he spent 16 years working upstairs from us at VICE — leading sales and business development, founding an in-house agency called VIRTUE, and just generally being the kind of ad guy who seemed to genuinely care about the work we did as journalists. Drew joins to help ask questions… and then ask Ben for money.Support our independent journalism by becoming a paid subscriber at theculturejournalist.substack.com.

As a digital marketing unicorn, you know it's important to use stories in your content. But what happens when you're in that moment, staring at a blank google doc, waiting for inspiration? That moment when you need content and you can't think of a good story…   Stories have been around for thousands of years. Stories make it more likely for our brains to absorb teachable moments.   When it comes to marketing, potential buyers are trying to answer two key questions: Do you have what I want and are you the person I want to do business with?   Stories help us highlight the “slice of life” moments that build a connection with your audience.   In the first episode of my series all about Copywriting, I'm sitting down with CEO and Founder of the Copy Confidence Society, Marisa Corcoran. In addition to writing the words that get landing pages converting at 60% (or higher!) and crafting personality-filled emails, Marisa helps coaches and creatives craft their uncopyable message.   Marisa is here to teach us how to “strip down” a story, or reverse engineer your storytelling. Tune in to this episode so the next time you're stuck waiting for inspiration you have a proven formula for a winning story!   Sponsored by The Virtual Writer with Michelle Hunter — an 8-week high-touch, intensive writing experience for virtual assistants to learn how to deliver highly-valued copywriting services and position themselves as a writing assistant and copywriter.

Tracy Chevalier discusses a historic Vermeer exhibition at Amsterdam's Rijksmuseum, the largest collection of his paintings ever assembled including Girl with a Pearl Earring, which was celebrated by Chevalier's 1999 novel of the same name. Bristol Old Vic is collaborating with four universities in the West Country for a major study into audience reactions in the theatre. Do reactions in the auditorium differ from those watching it online? Melanie Abbott investigates, talking to Iain Gilchrist from University of Bristol, Mike Richardson from University of Bath, Charlotte Geeves from Bristol Old Vic, actor Sophie Steer and Emma Keith, Director of Digital Media at the National Theatre. The finely wrought rhyming and metrical poetry of A. E. Stallings has won her prizes in the US, but until now she has not been published in the UK. Manchester-based publisher Carcanet is putting this right with This Afterlife, her Selected Poems. A. E. Stallings talks about living in Greece, drawing on classical mythology, making art out of the minutiae of life, and the joy of rhythm and rhyme. Jonathan Howard of The King's Singers tells us about the recent cancellation of a concert they were due to perform at Pensacola Christian College in Florida, over what the group says were "concerns related to the sexuality of members."

In this week's edition of the “22 lessons on ethics and technology series,” I speak with Dr. Nassim Parvin. We talk about the ethical and political dimensions of design and technology, especially as related to values of democratic participation and social justice. How have digital technologies impacted, and how do they continue to impact, the future of social and collective interactions, particularly in the arenas of political participation and social justice? How do the designs of technologies create platforms for participation--or inhibit it? And how have the values of democracy, equity, and justice nfluence the way we imagine and design the technologies that we claim will serve these values? Dr. Nassim Parvin is an Associate Professor at the Digital Media program at Georgia Tech, where she also directs the Design and Social Justice Studio. Her research explores the ethical and political dimensions of design and technology, especially as related to questions of democracy and justice. Rooted in pragmatist ethics and feminist theory, she critically engages emerging digital technologies—such as smart cities or artificial intelligence—in their wide-ranging and transformative effect on the future of collective and social interactions. Her interdisciplinary research integrates theoretically-driven humanistic scholarship and design-based inquiry, including publishing both traditional scholarly papers and creating digital artifacts that illustrate how humanistic values may be cultivated to produce radically different artifacts and infrastructures. Her scholarship appears across disciplinary venues in design (such as Design Issues), Human-Computer Interaction (such as ACM CSCW), Science and Technology Studies (such as Science, Technology, and Human Values), as well as philosophy (such as Hypatia: Journal of Feminist Philosophy). Her designs have been deployed at non-profit organizations such as the Mayo Clinic and exhibited in venues such as the Smithsonian Museum, receiving multiple awards and recognitions. She is an editor of Catalyst: Feminism, Theory, Technoscience, an award-winning journal in the expanding interdisciplinary field of STS and serve on the editorial board of Design Issues. My teaching has also received multiple recognitions inclusive of the campus-wide 2017 GATECH CETL/BP Junior Faculty Teaching Excellence Award. Dr. Parvin received her PhD in Design from Carnegie Mellon University. She holds an MS in Information Design and Technology from Georgia Tech and a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Tehran, Iran.

Doing that and working in concert with your clients has been a recipe for success for us.”  

What's the best way to get the lessons learned from a launch and have an actionable improvement plan for next time?  Answer: a retrospective.  Retrospectives are meetings held after a launch to discuss what happened internally during the launch planning, release and promotional phases. If you run an online business and are bringing together a team for product, event or course launches, retrospectives are a crucial opportunity to get everyone together in the same Zoom room to discuss what happened. If you're hiring and working with remote freelancers—people who are independent thinkers and prioritize flexible schedules—it's especially important to create a work culture of open communication, honesty, and continuous improvement. I'm here with guest Becky Rubenstein to wrap up my Launch series on Unicorns Unite with a very important element of a successful launch: the Retrospective or debrief. Becky is a brand strategist and a content creator who believes work should be meaningful and human centered. After recovering from corporate burnout, Becky launched a freelance business helping women-led entrepreneurs and organizations tell their stories so they can build the businesses of their dreams. She also helps solopreneurs who are ready to scale create healthy remote team processes. Becky shares how retrospectives benefit business owners and their teams.  Tune in to this episode and learn how to: Increase team productivity by 25% Create a culture of open communication, honesty, and continuous improvement Build trust and better working relationships with remote teams of freelancers If you're following my grassroots approach and you're working your way up to Launch Manager, launch retrospectives are another powerful tool you can bring to the table to help your client reach their business goals while you embrace a leadership role.
