    What if building a business that supports your life actually isn't about hustle…but about resilience, systems, and intention?In this episode of The Aspiring Solopreneur, Carly and Joe sit down with Mike Lynch, creator, RV-lifer, automation strategist, and founder of Flywheel Factory, for a refreshingly honest conversation about what solopreneurship really looks like behind the scenes.Mike shares the truth most people won't say out loud: it's harder than you think, it takes longer than you expect, and the path rarely looks the way you planned. But it's also where creativity, freedom, and momentum can finally meet.You'll hear how Mike and his family design RV travel around work (not the other way around), how he uses AI and automation to protect his creative energy instead of replacing it, and why building a “flywheel mindset” matters more than just staying busy.This is a grounded, practical, and motivating episode for solopreneurs who want to build smarter systems, reclaim their time, and design a business that truly supports their life.Episode FAQsHow can solopreneurs use AI and automation without losing their personal voice?Solopreneurs can use tools like Custom GPTs, content workflows, and automation platforms (like Make or Zapier) to streamline their work while still sounding like themselves. The key is starting with your own ideas and experiences first, then using AI to refine, organize, and scale your content, not replace your thinking. What's the best way for overwhelmed solopreneurs to get started with automation?The best place to start is identifying one repetitive, frustrating task in your business and breaking it into smaller steps. From there, tools like Custom GPTs or simple automations can help eliminate bottlenecks. How can solopreneurs design a business that supports their lifestyle instead of causing burnout?It starts with defining non-negotiables (family time, flexibility, travel, health) and then building systems around those priorities.

    WHEN EUSTACE MET FRANÇOISE— I first met Françoise Mouly at The New Yorker's old Times Square offices. This was way back when artists used to deliver illustrations in person. I had stopped by to turn in a spot drawing and was introduced to Françoise, their newly-minted cover art editor.I should have been intimidated, but I was fresh off the boat from Canada and deeply ensconced in my own bubble—hockey, baseball, Leonard Cohen—and so not yet aware of her groundbreaking work at Raw magazine.Much time has passed since that fortuitous day and I've thankfully caught up with her ouevre—gonna get as many French words into this as I can—through back issues of Raw and TOON Books. But mostly with The New Yorker, where we have worked together for over 30 years and I've been afforded a front-row seat to witness her mode du travail, her nonpareil mélange of visual storytelling skills.Speaking just from my own experience, I can't tell you how many times at the end of a harsh deadline I've handed in a desperate, incoherent mess of watercolor and ink, only to see the published product a day later magically made whole, readable, and aesthetically pleasing.Because Françoise prefers her artists to get the credit, I assume she won't want me mentioning the many times she rescued my images from floundering. I can remember apologetically submitting caricatures with poor likenesses, which she somehow managed to fix with a little digital manipulation—a hairline move forward here, a nose sharpened there. Or ideas that mostly worked turned on their head—with the artist's permission, of course—to suddenly drive the point all the way home.For Françoise, “the point” is always the point. Beautiful pictures are fine, but what does the image say? Françoise maintains a wide circle of devoted contributing artists—from renowned gallery painters to scribbling cartoonists, and all gradations between—from whom she regularly coaxes their best work. I thank my étoiles chanceuses to be part of that group.And now, an interview with Françoise. Apparently. —Barry Blitt—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

    PR isn't just for big brands with big budgets, and this episode proves it. In this conversation, PR experts Lydia Bagarozza & Bridget Sicsko,of Visibility on Purpose, break down exactly how solopreneurs can get featured in podcasts, publications, and major media without paying thousands or hiring an agency. They walk through a simple, repeatable PR framework that focuses on positioning, pitching, and consistency, plus why most solopreneurs are closer to press than they think.You'll also hear why authenticity beats polish, how PR compounds over time (even when social media doesn't), and how earned media helps you show up in Google results, AI search tools, and real buying decisions. If you've ever thought “PR isn't for me,” this episode will change your mind.EPISODE FAQsIs PR actually worth it for solopreneurs without big budgets?Yes. PR is one of the most cost-effective long-term strategies for solopreneurs because it relies on earned media, not paid ads. You don't need a publicist or a massive following, just clear positioning, a strong pitch, and consistent outreach. One good feature can keep working for your business for years. What do solopreneurs need before pitching themselves to media or podcasts?Before pitching, solopreneurs should have their digital foundations in place: a professional website, clear messaging, up-to-date social profiles, and strong positioning that explains what makes them different. Media isn't looking for perfection. They're looking for clarity and relevance. Does PR help with SEO, AI search, or discoverability?Yes. Earned media creates high-quality backlinks, credibility signals, and keyword relevance that help your business show up in Google and AI tools like ChatGPT. PR tells search engines (and AI) that you're a trusted source, not just another website publishing content.

    A 5-STAR MAGAZINE (DO NOT DISTURB)—Orlando is the magazine as hotel, quite literally—we'll explain what that means in a bit—a magazine that one can inhabit and live in, a love letter to culture in the most expansive use of the word. It's also very Italian. Maybe because it comes from Italy. More specifically, from the mind of Antonella Dellepiane Pescetto, who is Italian. But more importantly, she is someone with exquisite taste.And, yes, the magazine is set up as a hotel. Just go to the table of contents and you start to see how this concept works. Or visit the website, it's obvious there, too Ad the concept structures all various—and sometime disparate—ideas that go into the making of Orlando.And if you visit the website, again, you'll find courses and tours and podcasts and a Spotify playlist to accompany each story in each issue as well as a boutique, and you can sense the publishing plans as well. But mostly you'll find yourself in a charming confection of a magazine, kind of like something Wes Anderson might have come up with had he been Italian, which might work for you, or not—not everyone loves Wes Anderson, sure—but just like you know a Wes Anderson movie when you see or hear one, once you enter the hotel that is Orlando, you know.

You'll learn why splitting focus between freelancing and job searching hurts both options, how to reverse engineer your business around the life you actually want, and why one employer is far less stable than multiple clients.WE ALSO TALKED ABOUTHow to build benefits and stability directly into your freelance business structureEd's story: what happens when a billion-dollar company goes bust overnightThe real question: What do you want from your business?Why most freelancers should work 20-30 hours per week, not 40The psychological safety trap: feeling safe vs actually being safeThe employee mindset trap that keeps freelancers from building the business they wantAbout Ed DeasonEd Deason is a business coach specializing in working with founders and entrepreneurs ready to scale, pivot, and build their ideal businesses.

    Photo Dump : Ce format bien trop cool que les marques sous-estiment

    Épisode 1413 : Nous sommes début janvier et comme chaque année Instagram s'est transformé en immense album photo collectif. Des photo dumps partout. Vingt slides. Des souvenirs. Des bilans d'année racontés sans texte ou presque. Dans mon feed les photodumps s'enchaînent. Créateurs. Freelances. Indépendants. Tout le monde y est passé. Tout le monde sauf les marques. Et ce n'est pas un hasard. Ce n'est pas parce que le format ne marche pas. C'est parce qu'il est mal compris. Aujourd'hui on va parler de ce format bien trop cool que les marques regardent encore de loin. —Photodump = contenu "considération » par excellenceOn parle beaucoup de reach. De viralité. De nouveaux abonnés.Mais la majorité des contenus publiés par les marques et les créateurs ne touchent pas des inconnus.Ils touchent des gens déjà exposés. Des abonnés. Des viewers récurrents. Des audiences tièdes.Et c'est précisément là que le photodump devient stratégique.Le photodump ne sert pas à recruterC'est un format pensé pour les audiences déjà exposées à la marque.Le photodump n'est pas un format top funnel.Il n'est pas fait pour attirer. Il est fait pour entretenir une relation.Le photodump fonctionne par accumulation de petits signaux.Une équipe. Un moment off. Un détail du quotidien. Un événement interne.Ce sont des contenus qui prennent de la valeur uniquement si l'audience a déjà un minimum de contexte. C'est exactement la logique du middle funnel. On ne cherche plus à capter l'attention.On cherche à installer de la familiarité.Dans un funnel classique, le milieu est souvent le parent pauvre.Photodump = contenu middle funnel par excellenceLe middle funnel sur Instagram, c'est la zone “know / like / trust” : on ne parle plus de découverte froide, on nourrit la relation avec une audience qui sait déjà vaguement qui tu es, mais qui n'est pas encore prête à acheter ou à s'engager très fort.Pourquoi le photodump retient mieux l'attention que beaucoup de vidéosChaque slide est une micro-promesse. L'utilisateur décide de rester.Une attention volontaire, pas imposée par l'autoplay.L'utilisateur décide de rester.C'est subtil mais crucial. Quand tu swipes dans un carousel, c'est un acte volontaire. Ce n'est pas l'autoplay qui décide pour toi. C'est toi qui choisis. Et ce choix—ce geste physique de "je veux en voir plus"—envoie un signal super fort à l'algorithme. "Cette personne n'est pas juste passée par là, elle a vraiment voulu voir le contenu."Si les Reels gagnent sur la reach (portée brute, découverte).Les carousels gagnent sur l'engagement, la qualité d'attention et les enregistrements.—Le photodump comme outil de branding culturelCe format envoie un signal.Quand tu crées un photo dump en 2025, tu dis implicitement : "On connaît les codes."C'est une déclaration. Les marques trop corporates ne font pas de photo dumps. Les marques qui font du photo dump ont compris quelque chose : la plateforme, les usages, les codes. C'est un signal de modernité.-Un format qui valorise l'existant plutôt que la productionEn 2025, tu as déjà de tonnes d'assets. Des photos de produits. Des photos de team. Des moments coulisse. Des événements. Des shoots qu'on a jamais vraiment utilisées.Le photodump transforme des assets dormants en contenu performant.Les marques qui gagnent en 2025 ne sont pas celles qui créent le plus. Ce sont celles qui sont les plus intelligentes avec ce qu'elles ont. Et le photo dump est l'outil parfait pour ça.. . . Retrouvez toutes les notes de l'épisode sur www.lesuperdaily.com !

    Il y a des mots en marketing qui reviennent régulièrement, on les entends, on les utilise même parfois, sans vraiment toujours savoir ce qui se cache derrière. Le mot du jour, c'est omnicanalité. Si vous avez déjà travaillé de près ou de loin avec un service marketing, je mets ma main à couper que vous avez été confronté à ce terme. Omnicanilité. Et vous avez peut être même croisé le chemin de ses cousins, crosscanal, multicanal et pluricanal. A force on s'y perd, et surtout au-delà d'une simple définition, j'avais envie de creuser le sujet pour comprendre vraiment comment cette stratégie impacte nos marques, pour quel type d'entreprise elle est faite, quelle est la place de nos clients dans tout ça et comment allouer nos budgets. Pour discuter de ce sujet, j'ai demandé à Thibault de Morel de me rejoindre au micro du Podcast du Marketing. Thibault est le CMO du Permis Libre, l'école de conduite en ligne fraîchement introduite en bourse.

    Everyone is busy planning what they're bringing into 2026. New goals. New strategies. New habits.But what if the real progress comes from deciding what doesn't make the cut?In this episode, we flip the usual New Year conversation on its head and talk about the things solopreneurs should seriously consider leaving behind. From creating content just because it's “trending,” to chasing passive income fairy tales, to saying yes to clients and projects that quietly drain your energy, we break down what's no longer serving your business (or your life).This is a practical, honest conversation about focusing on what actually works for your audience, your strengths, and your version of success. If you want to head into 2026 with more clarity, less noise, and a business that feels sustainable instead of exhausting, this episode is your permission slip to let some things go.Episode FAQsWhat should solopreneurs stop doing in 2026 to grow faster and feel less overwhelmed?Solopreneurs should stop doing activities that don't directly support their audience, revenue, or energy. This includes creating content without a clear strategy, chasing “passive income” shortcuts, comparing their progress to others, managing every task themselves, and saying yes to clients or projects that don't align with their core business. Letting go of these habits creates space for focus, clarity, and sustainable growth.Is passive income actually realistic for solopreneurs, or is it mostly hype?Passive income is possible for solopreneurs, but it is rarely instant or effortless. Sustainable passive income usually comes from productizing services, creating courses, books, or digital products after significant upfront work. Solopreneurs should avoid “get rich quick” promises and instead focus on building offers that reduce one-on-one time while still delivering real value and support to customers.How do solopreneurs know what to say no to without hurting their income?Solopreneurs should say no to projects that fall outside their core expertise, disrupt their workflow, or pull them away from their ideal clients even if the opportunity seems appealing in the moment. Long-term income stability comes from focus, consistency, and repeatable offers, not from taking on one-off or misaligned work that creates stress and inefficiency.

    If the word sales makes you tense up, this episode is about to change everything.In this conversation, sales expert Adam Cerra breaks down why most solopreneurs struggle with selling, and it's not because they're bad at it. It's because they've been taught the wrong mindset. Instead of “closing,” Adam introduces inverse closing, a way to turn sales calls into guided conversations where prospects sell themselves without pressure, manipulation, or feeling salesy.You'll learn how to stop pricing your time and start pricing your wisdom, how to run discovery calls that feel collaborative (not awkward), and how to follow up without chasing or feeling desperate. Whether you're booking your first calls or already selling high-ticket services, this episode gives you practical, confidence-boosting shifts you can apply immediately.Episode FAQsWhat is inverse closing, and why does it work for solopreneurs?Inverse closing is a sales approach where the solopreneur acts as an assessor rather than a closer. Instead of pitching, you guide the prospect to articulate their own needs and reasons for buying. This works especially well for solopreneurs because it removes pressure, builds trust, and aligns sales with service, making conversations feel natural and collaborative.How can solopreneurs stop feeling “salesy” on discovery calls?Solopreneurs stop sounding salesy when they shift from trying to convince someone to helping them self-evaluate. By asking thoughtful, emotionally driven questions and listening deeply, the call becomes a guided conversation instead of a pitch. This approach positions the solopreneur as a trusted authority, not a persuader.What's the best follow-up strategy if a prospect doesn't buy on the first call?Most prospects don't buy on the first call, and that's normal. A strong follow-up strategy treats the second call as a continuation—not a chase. By maintaining leadership, referencing prior conversations, and removing urgency pressure, solopreneurs can increase conversions without sounding needy or desperate.

    Ever wonder which tools and services you actually need as a solopreneur, and which ones are just shiny distractions?In this episode of The Aspiring Solopreneur, Carly and Joe revisit one of the most debated sections of their book, Solopreneur Business For Dummies: setting up your company's tools and services.From creating rock-solid SOPs to knowing when to outsource, to avoiding the dreaded “tool overload,” they break down how to make smarter choices that actually save you time. Plus, they share how AI can help today (and where it still falls short). If you've ever felt stuck between doing it all yourself, hiring help, or buying yet another app, you won't want to miss this conversation.Episode FAQsShould I outsource tasks as a solopreneur or keep doing everything myself?You don't need employees to be a solopreneur, but you also don't have to do everything alone. Outsourcing to contractors or companies for specific tasks can save time and prevent burnout. The key is to outsource before you're desperate. This way, you have time to properly train someone and set up processes that work.How do I know which tools are worth paying for?Start by identifying the specific problem you want to solve, then choose tools that are simple, affordable, and easy to integrate with your current setup. Avoid chasing “shiny objects” that solve problems you don't even have yet. Use free trials strategically and actually test them on a real task during the trial period, and start with monthly payments until you're confident it's a good fit.What should come first: documenting processes or finding tools and services?Always start with documenting your processes in the form of standard operating procedures (SOPs). If you try to outsource or automate a broken process, you'll only make the problems bigger. SOPs give you a clear, repeatable checklist that works whether you do it yourself, hand it off to someone else, or use a tool to automate it.

    Why is it so hard to explain what you do, even when you're really good at it? In this episode, messaging strategist Damian Vallelonga breaks down why solopreneurs struggle with clarity, confidence, and consistency in their messaging, and what to do about it.We talk about why referrals aren't a strategy, how vague language quietly kills opportunities, and the exact framework Damian uses to help solopreneurs create elevator pitches, website headlines, and LinkedIn bios that actually make sense to other humans. If you've ever said, “I know what I do, I just don't know how to explain it,” this episode is for you.Episode FAQsWhy do solopreneurs struggle to clearly explain what they do?Solopreneurs struggle to explain what they do because they know too much. Years of experience, details, and expertise live in their heads, making it hard to simplify their message for someone hearing it for the first time. Clear messaging requires stepping outside your own perspective and focusing on what your audience needs to understand, not everything you know.What is the simplest framework for creating an effective elevator pitch?An effective elevator pitch has three parts:The common problem your ideal client is struggling withWhat you do to help solve that problemThe outcome or transformation they experience as a resultThis structure keeps your message focused, relatable, and easy to remember, without turning it into a list of credentials or services.How often should solopreneurs update their messaging?Solopreneurs should revisit their messaging any time their business changes in a meaningful way. This includes adding or removing services, narrowing a niche, shifting strategy, or changing who they serve. Messaging should always follow business strategy, because outdated or unclear messaging creates confusion, and confusion is one of the biggest barriers to growth.
