What is even really “Making It?” It doesn’t mean we don’t utilize our gifts and guidance to go for our goals. I would rather MAKE IT fun and Joyful. I would rather be MAKING IT pleasant in my present. Hard work is something I was always taught and told to showcase. It worked. For a while. Then I burned out. Then I wanted to give up. Because I wanted to prove to everyone else besides myself that I “Made it” well, that wasn’t a place that brought me much happiness or success. It tricks you though, it makes you think your making it. Till it starts to TAKE IT. Take it all away. Which one day when we slow down and reassess why and what’s really important, we find it was to just be in that original flow of unlimited creation. Making it with our friends. Making it up as we go and allowing the golden process to take form and take flight. This is my revelation and resolution. If you have read this far I’m sure some code has unlocked within you as well. Thanks for listening. Hearing is believing and what you’ve just listened to was an excerpt from a beautiful SADHGURU talk with the youth of India. Thank you to the ISHA foundation for opening a new doorway of light in my life.

So This Summer has been a very interesting one indeed. During the hiatus, I started an activism project with emerging technology. To make a long story short, I Made an Augmented Reality App that Triggered Racists. With all this stuff going on in the world: COVID, Social Unrest, Police Brutality, I decided to make a statement with my work. I had to make an Augmented Reality app for the movement. Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/fl3QGfF0x7c Read Full Blog Post: https://link.medium.com/TGGbBvXDL9 If you want to learn how to make AR apps, you can learn by taking the course I made based on the project on Skill share. You will learn the basics of augmented reality, how to use art in activism, how to build an augmented reality experience in Unity without any code, and how to enhance the experience of thought provoking art with a user interface and user controls. The app will place a 3D model into augmented reality and control the 3D model with onscreen buttons and sliders. You can check out the course here: https://skl.sh/2O2VRuO If you like this, feel free to subscribe on Patreon to get a promo code to the course I made for this on SKillshare, and also the project files I used for this whole project!

It was 2014, and I had been hustling trying to build my branding agency for 3 years. From the outside, I looked like I was succeeding. I had a super cool office in Brooklyn, NY, two full-time employees, and the last project I was invited to pitch for was a 20,000 square foot restaurant in Times Square that wanted that cool Brooklyn vibe. I had all the glitz of a successful owner, but behind the scenes, things looked very different. I was networking every day, hoofing it around NYC to meet with whomever would have coffee with me, I was pitching project after project and either not hearing back or just losing them. And my overhead was high. By March 2014, we had maxed out all of our credit cards, were overdrawn on our bank accounts, and had no idea how we were going to make payroll in two weeks. I was desperately trying to figure out how to bring money in. Not only did we need money to live, but we needed to pay back this $40,000 we now owed. Tell the prospects with proposals that we would bargain with them? Network… MORE? Just cry in the corner with my fingers crossed that one of these proposals would close in the next week and pay a deposit? And if none those things worked, I assumed the only option left would be to give up, admit that I FAILED to all my friends and family, and get a regular job. I was working SO hard to get clients and busting my butt 24/7 to be at the beck and call the few clients we had, so why couldn’t my business at least support itself? I had the best intentions, I had done my homework, read every book, studied other success stories, pounded the pavement networking, took courses, and was willing to work round the clock on my business while giving my all to deliver for my clients… I was doing everything that every expert, guru, mentor, and colleague had recommended. I had even thrown money at my problems by hiring other service providers to solve them for me and not only did that not work either, but it also cost me more money I didn’t have. But despite all my knowledge, experience, and effort, none of it was showing up in my bank account. It felt unfair. I was depressed and felt more and more like a failure. And one night, while having dinner with my husband and business partner Steve, I was in a catatonic daze over the crushing burden of my failing business while he was just chatting along as if everything was fine, making me even more anxious! Just as my anxiety was turning to rage, the adrenaline must have heightened my senses and I snapped out of my failure coma to hear him say “...why don’t we just let the employees go?” For all my butt busting and desperate efforts, I am embarrassed to admit that I had not even considered that as one of my options and that was a wake-up call. Because I was trying to create an agency, a big business that looked like what I imagined success was, in my mind, letting our employees go would be failure and the end of my business. Because I was on a trajectory of building an agency, I refused to entertain any ideas that felt like backtracking and saw any of my efforts that didn’t achieve that goal as failures. I was so set on a specific idea of what a successful business looked like, that I was actually entertaining closing our business to get a normal job instead of entertaining the idea of running a different kind of business. Now Steve had my attention and he was saying more great stuff… he said we had built a LOT of value in our business, had a lot of experience, great work to show and happy, satisfied clients. We weren't at a dead end, we actually had tons of options of what we could do with what we had created and achieved. He forced me to entertain the idea that there were infinite options available to us, and just because they were different from what I had originally planned, didn’t mean they were inferior. My lightbulb not only went off – it popped. A huuuge weight had been lifted off of me and I was able to see my business with a ruthless, cutting clarity that was unencumbered by my previous fears of failing (because I already had!). Now I was free to do ANYTHING. Immediately, my new terminator vision was assessing my business problems. Fact: We couldn’t afford the employees right now and hadn’t been able to for some time, hence the debt, so keeping them was no longer an option. I had been avoiding that fact for months. The second I accepted it, relief washed over me. We won’t need to find $8,000 for them this month. WOW. I had just made $8,000 in a moment of clarity. I’m gonna date myself here but you know that game Minesweeper? Where you’re clicking the boxes without clicking the mines? And every once in a while you click an empty box and the whole area opens up all at once? That’s what this was like. Everything broke open for me. THAT was the moment I became the boss of my business & my whole demeanor changed We started looking at our business as a clean slate and started brainstorming like crazy all the possible ideas of what we could do next. We started listing all the skills and assets we had and how to make money off them. We questioned why we had done everything the way we had, and why we felt we had to do it that way. We were EXCITED for the first time in a long time. It was like when we first started our business and anything was possible again. We were no longer desperately trying to do what we thought we had to succeed. We were asking ourselves what we really wanted out of our business and how we could structure it to get it. In that MOMENT, I went from being at the mercy of my business and the situation I was in, to stepping up and showing my business who’s boss. Before that moment... I thought MONEY was my biggest problem. So I thought if I just had more money, more clients, more work, things would be better. Before that moment... I blamed all the people I was pitching for my business’ problems. They would take our proposals and then end up hiring other, less expensive companies... how could I compete with that?! So I thought they’re just ignorant of the value of my services. Before that moment... I thought I was doing the best I could at marketing my business. I was networking like a maniac. I was posting on Facebook, blogging, trying to speak at events. Nothing I was trying was bringing me enough business, so I thought marketing doesn’t really work. Before that moment... I thought clients were really difficult and annoying. They always wanted more, more, more, and never wanted to pay what the work was worth (and almost never on time). So I thought clients suck and there’s nothing I can do about it However, after my breakthrough moment, I could see how all these beliefs weren’t true and had been limiting my ability to succeed. I now realized there were always, so many more possibilities available to me that I had never even considered. And I had the power to whip my business into exactly what I wanted it to be. And so I did. Over the next few months… I went from being oppressed by my business to leading it. I went from being stuck in a whole bunch of assumptions and stories that were holding me back, to being free to entertain, create, and experiment with new ways to run my business. I also realized that it could go any number of ways and a lot of those possibilities started to look way more attractive than my original plan of building a big agency with lots of employees. In the 12 months that followed we changed our entire strategy and made $500,000 selling our branding services, and we did it without the employees while working less than we had before. Not just that, but every year since we continued to make more and work less than the previous year. Each year we set new goals for how we want to live and work backward from those goals to mold our business to support the lifestyle we want. The extra income and time also created space to grow my business in other ways. I wrote and marketed a best selling book, I became a speaker, I’ve written hundreds of articles on my blog and Forbes column, I learned how to build, market and successfully sell multiple online courses, and we’ve traveled to over 30 cities and countries, sometimes taking months off at a time for adventures. All while working less than 25 hours a week. That didn’t just happen. It happened because I MADE IT happen. You see, Showing your business who’s boss all starts with OWNERSHIP. And no, I don't mean that you own your business. I mean you show up and own your shit in your business. Everything I’ve accomplished since my business “rock-bottom” moment happened because I started owning mine, and showing my business who’s boss. I started taking responsibility for everything that was happening, starting with why clients were happily asking for proposals... and then hiring others who were cheaper. I started owning that it wasn’t that the clients that were cheap, it was us. We either weren’t pitching the right people, we weren’t making a good enough case for them to hire us, or both. I started owning that more money wasn’t going to solve our business problems. In those moments of desperation, had we closed a client like I desperately thought I needed, we would have been in the same situation a month later. Another client, some more money… they weren’t going to fix the FUNDAMENTAL problems in our business. I started owning that my fear of failure, or even worse, my fear of looking like a failure, was blinding me to all the opportunities in front of me. I was so concerned with being successful according to other people’s definition of success, that I didn’t even know what success really meant for ME! I finally realized that I would never be successful until I figured that out. I started owning that I had been operating my business for the past few years by trying things, and then crossing my fingers hoping they would work. When they didn’t work I would just throw up my hands and say “oh well, it didn’t work” and then move on to the next option, instead of trying again until I MADE it work. I started owning that all the mistakes I had made were not mistakes, they were actually HUGE, VALUABLE lessons that could teach me how to build a really strong business, if I would only LISTEN. I started owning that if I wanted to be a business owner, I needed to operate like a business owner. That means understanding that the service you provide is the product, NOT the business. The business is the machine: the brand, money, the process, the marketing, and the sales. If I wanted to show my business who was boss, I needed to be the boss of a business and not just try to hock our services to whomever was willing to pay for them. Shifting from being at the mercy of my business to showing it who’s boss every day since then, has been THE difference between constantly hustling while fearful of things not working, to feeling like I can hold my entire business in my hand, and manipulate it to do what I want. And as what I want evolves and changes, I can use my business to fulfill those new goals. How would you feel if you had that kind of power and control over your business? If you felt like you could use it as a tool to get what you want, instead of this hungry beast that you are constantly trying to feed? How could you use your business to both fulfill you, AND enjoy your life more? Steve helped switch the light on for me that night, and if you let me, I’m going to switch that light on for you, and every service expert who is fed up with struggling to get the results they want from their business. It’s about how you show up each day, looking for possibilities and opportunities where others see problems and challenges. It’s about taking ownership so you can make decisions from a place of power and confidence. It’s about showing up ready to kick ass and take names like the boss you were meant to be. If you want more of that in your business, then I started this podcast to inspire you to start showing your business who’s boss.

Andrew Glass is a Brooklyn based Rubyist operating a small independent devshop called Bang Equals. He has held many ‘enrichment jobs’, including being a ball person at US Open for 5 years, traveling for judging Guinness World Record attempts, and will be a balloon holder in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade this year. Today the panel is discussing his about his 2018 RailsConf talk, Human Powered Rails: Automated Crowdsourcing In Your Ruby on Rails App. In his talk, he shows the audience how to use Amazon Mechanical Turk. Amazon Mechanical Turk lets you post tasks, set a price point, and then people can go and complete the task. This is often done with tasks that can’t be done with machine learning and to train machine learning algorithms. In his talk he goes into What it is, how it’s used, and how we can use Ruby to automate the process. In his apps, he uses it for lead generation, qualification, enrichment, and some video and photo tagging. More specific uses include recording items from a picture of a shopping list, identifying specific things in a video, categorizing businesses and items, sentiment analysis of text or image. Overall, Mechanical Turk is used for things that machine learning can’t handle yet. The panel discusses some different uses for crowdsourcing and how to submit something to Mechanical Turk. There are multiple ways to ensure accuracy in your surveys, including setting up multiple stages to your task, having more than one person complete your task, and creating a qualified worker pool based on tests to determine their aptitude and skill. The panel discusses some of the controversy surrounding Mechanical Turk, citing an article in the New York Times (see links). The big issue is wages and worker rights. Wages can be very low, and it is ripe for abuse by companies as they could easily refuse all work and withhold pay. It is also important for the companies to give an accurate time estimate for the task and a reasonable reimbursement. Mechanical Turk attracts a variety of people, from people that do it for fun to people to actually do it for a living, so it is vital that companies use the tool responsibly. Andrew talks more about how his app works. His apps are built on RTurk, Turkee, and Mechanical Turk, and he talks about how they work. The tricky part is figuring out the logic for what answers they will accept. Andrew talks about how to get started with Mechanical Turk and how to validate the work you get back. To ensure you get accurate information, he suggest that you make it happy for your users, make the UX simple and usable, and use a lot of formatting in your forms so that you get good information in.

Andrew Glass is a Brooklyn based Rubyist operating a small independent devshop called Bang Equals. He has held many ‘enrichment jobs’, including being a ball person at US Open for 5 years, traveling for judging Guinness World Record attempts, and will be a balloon holder in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade this year. Today the panel is discussing his about his 2018 RailsConf talk, Human Powered Rails: Automated Crowdsourcing In Your Ruby on Rails App. In his talk, he shows the audience how to use Amazon Mechanical Turk. Amazon Mechanical Turk lets you post tasks, set a price point, and then people can go and complete the task. This is often done with tasks that can’t be done with machine learning and to train machine learning algorithms. In his talk he goes into What it is, how it’s used, and how we can use Ruby to automate the process. In his apps, he uses it for lead generation, qualification, enrichment, and some video and photo tagging. More specific uses include recording items from a picture of a shopping list, identifying specific things in a video, categorizing businesses and items, sentiment analysis of text or image. Overall, Mechanical Turk is used for things that machine learning can’t handle yet. The panel discusses some different uses for crowdsourcing and how to submit something to Mechanical Turk. There are multiple ways to ensure accuracy in your surveys, including setting up multiple stages to your task, having more than one person complete your task, and creating a qualified worker pool based on tests to determine their aptitude and skill. The panel discusses some of the controversy surrounding Mechanical Turk, citing an article in the New York Times (see links). The big issue is wages and worker rights. Wages can be very low, and it is ripe for abuse by companies as they could easily refuse all work and withhold pay. It is also important for the companies to give an accurate time estimate for the task and a reasonable reimbursement. Mechanical Turk attracts a variety of people, from people that do it for fun to people to actually do it for a living, so it is vital that companies use the tool responsibly. Andrew talks more about how his app works. His apps are built on RTurk, Turkee, and Mechanical Turk, and he talks about how they work. The tricky part is figuring out the logic for what answers they will accept. Andrew talks about how to get started with Mechanical Turk and how to validate the work you get back. To ensure you get accurate information, he suggest that you make it happy for your users, make the UX simple and usable, and use a lot of formatting in your forms so that you get good information in. They preface their results with an accuracy score to help determine what is true. Andrew talks about where he wants to go from he.

It’s been almost a year since I started creating a series of videos on Youtube sharing about how my life was starting to change. Although I shared A LOT as I learned and changed, I want to share more. I never know exactly how to answer all the questions I get recently: “How have you lost so much weight?” “How did you learn to trust again?” “How did you get past the resentment?” “How did you keep fear & obsessive thoughts about what else might happen from consuming your mind?” “How did you learn to trust yourself, love yourself, and believe in yourself?” There is no straight-line answer to any of those questions! And there’s no “quick fix” to overcoming any of this. I haven’t even mastered them all, but the truth is...it takes WORK. Actual work. Mental work. Emotional work. Learning constantly. Physically practicing new skills. Accepting that the clichés “two steps forward and one step back,” “progress, not perfection,” and “it gets worse before it gets better” are TRUE and NORMAL. I certainly don’t have all the answers, but I want to share what I’ve learned. I want to go back and dive deeper into what I was doing behind the scenes of the past year and how I MADE the changes I was preaching about. I don’t want anybody else stuck where I was. If I can help one person by sharing the things that helped me, then it’s worth it. We all deserve to live a fulfilled life, and we all CAN! Y’all stay tuned, because I’ve got some things to share. ❤️ *This episode is audio from my livestream on 9-5-19 (you can watch the video here: https://youtu.be/JG5DQ5tMqg0). ⦿ You can watch more of my journey that I've documented over the past year on my youtube channel: https://youtube.com/KatieOnTheFlipside ⦿ Other places to find me: https://instagram.com/Katiepie07 https://twitter.com/katiepie7 https://www.facebook.com/Cullen-and-Katie-183035531790398/ ⦿ Books that changed my life: https://amzn.to/2k5btT6 ⦿ Podcasts that have helped me: Love Over Addiction - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/love-over-addiction/id1024072304 Marriage Therapy Radio - https://podcasts.marriage-therapy-radio/id1295458667apple.com/us/podcast/ Rise (Rachel Hollis - business): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rise-podcast/id1245763628 Rise Together (Rachel & Dave Hollis - marriage/family): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rise-together-podcast/id1407481308 Spark Joy (on Marie Kondo): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/spark-joy/id1278047404 The Garyvee Audio Experience (*language warning): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-garyvee-audio-experience/id928159684 The Life Coach School Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-life-coach-school-podcast/id870239631 --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/katieontheflipside/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/katieontheflipside/support

Harkening back to a few other episodes, including Nilofer Merchant and Cindy Gallop, we talk with Geraldine regarding a very important topic in the digital world: online harassment. Why is this so important to talk about here? What does this have to do with strategy? Well, as Geraldine says during our discussion: "I think that there are certain companies that are struggling to figure out how to reach certain demographic groups, and part of that is because they have no one in that group at all represented at any point in their company." The missing link over and over again in marketing is that, all too often, we sit in an ivory tower and come up with ideas and campaigns in our boardrooms...boardrooms where only a small sliver of our audience is represented (if that!). This is a very important conversation and we hope you enjoy! Referenced: Geraldine on Twitter Geraldine's Blog Geraldine's fantastic award-winning article, "I Made the Pizza Cinnamon Rolls from Mario Batali’s Sexual Misconduct Apology Letter" The List of James Beard Award Winners The Tweet from Geraldine's husband, Rand Fishkin that captured her elation right after she found out she won Her follow up tweet, which was even more fun Nilofer Merchant discussing the importance of Onlyness in creating innovation Nilofer on AOAS Cindy Gallop in AOAS Why Won’t Twitter Treat White Supremacy Like ISIS? Because It Would Mean Banning Some Republican Politicians Too. (Vice) Sleeping Giants ALSO! She didn't mention this on the show (but did mention that she's terrible at self-promotion, so there's that), but she just published a book: All Over The Place: Adventures in Travel, True Love, and Petty Theft Thanks for listening, we hope you enjoyed this episode.

The question of the day is, does passion have an expiring date? Do you just reach a certain age where you are no longer passionate about the things you once were, or is that just a result of being overwhelmed by life and not having or convincing yourself that you don't have the time to keep the passion alive? Today's episode is a different one and a fun one. I've been making music in many many different forms since I was a wee lad and I've put out many albums under many different projects, but as I was going to release my latest album collaboration that I did with my good friend Travis Harms, I realized that I haven't really talked much about my music projects on the show because I haven't released any albums since TSID's inception. I personally really enjoy listening to artists break down their creations and explain the process that went into them, so I thought it would be fun to do the same. However, rather than just doing a solo episode ranting about my own music, I thought it would be fun to bring in someone else to interview me on my own show, so it can be a conversation answering questions that an outsider has, rather than just telling you the things that I find interesting about my own thing. And who better to do that interview process than my other good friend, Nathan Sipes? Nathan has been working on putting together his own podcast called "Beard Stroking", where he has long-form discussions with artists digging into their creative process. That podcast will be releasing in the very near future. I've been helping him out with some of the video and audio work for his episodes and I really like what he's doing. So, we decided to do this one as kind of a crossover episode. Anyway, blah blah blah. I made a thing. If you haven't heard it yet, you'll get to hear all of the songs in their entirety during this episode as we discuss them. You can also find the album, SH! - The End of the Week on all the main streaming platforms like Apple Music, iTunes, Spotify, YouTube, etc, or on our website at shexclamationpoint.com What kinds of music does Dan make? Is pop punk dead? Does it suck? Find out now on today's episode of The System is Down #113: I Made a Thing: SH!: The End of the Week Album Discussion w. Dan Smotz Question Everything.

We want people to suffer when they wrong us and we want justice to be served. Forgiving my brother's killer was one of the toughest decisions I had to make. I "MADE" the "DECISION" to forgive him even when I didn't want to. It was necessary for me to forgive him regardless of where he was in his process. What do you need to let go?

Clarissa Jacobson wrote and produced the award-winning short film, Lunch Ladies. The short film played over 100 film festivals around the world. Along the way, Clarissa learned how to maneuver the U.S. and international film festival circuit, while writing feature scripts as part of the Twin Bridges Writing Salon founded by Joe Bratcher. Lunch Ladies is based-off an existing feature film script. Clarissa also talks about the process of optioning scripts, finding great characters to create great stories, writing a book about her film festival experiences, and giving into the writer's creative journey. There are some good lessons in this episode. And Clarissa published them in I Made a Short Film and N WTF Do I Do With It (a guide to film festivals, promotion and surviving the ride). Available now on Amazon and Kindle. The music used in this episode come from the soundtrack of My Friend's Rubber Ducky. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/americanfilmmaker/support
“Why did God plant the tree in the garden knowing It would lead to destruction?” Pastor Ryan answers that question in this message, I Made a Choice.
Today's show is all about Native American Paganism and Cultural Appropriation. I will explain Native American Paganism and since I know that most pagans already know about Cultural Appropriation, I thought that I might talk about it in more detail because not everyone does. Today's spirit guide is the Bear and the dream symbols are Home, Hometown, Home Improvement and Homeless. Plus there is a meditation in this show. The songs featured are the following: 1. Ancestral Circle by Native Spirit 2. Suburban Shaman by Holly Tannen featuring Carnahan, Caswell and Morris. 3. Dancing Bear by Avalon Rising 4. Sedna by Heather Dale 5. Home by Hecate's Wheel 6.

If you listen to local music, then you've heard of Tim Mays. Mays is the cofounder and co-owner of San Diego's mythic music venue The Casbah. On this episode of "I Made it in San Diego," Voice of San Diego's podcast about local businesses and the people behind them, hear how Mays went from a kid handing out concert fliers to an indie music legend. Mays started booking and producing shows in San Diego in the early 1980s as a way to make sure his favorite bands came through town. By the mid '80s, Mays and some of his friends also wanted to open a bar more geared toward his generation – with their music in the jukebox. Mays' side gig promoting shows and the bar he helped open, The Pink Panther, both found quick success. He quit his day jobs and became a serial entrepreneur with a knack for opening businesses that grew to be local icons. "I never said, 'I don't want to work for the man,' I just was lucky enough to not have to after a certain point." After the birth of The Casbah, Mays continued to open new bars, restaurants and businesses in San Diego – Starlite restaurant, Vinyl Junkies record store and Krakatoa coffee shop among them. He's created opportunities for dozens of local bands and artists, helped turn neighborhoods into thriving communities and still finds time to think about what business he might open next.

Ladies! Please join our Be Bold Facebook Group! Today's guest is Geraldine DeRuiter. Geraldine is an unlikely travel blogger. Unlikely because she’s, well let’s just say, she’s an uncomfortable traveler. You’ll hear why she’s not the best of travelers during our conversation. She’s best known for her blog, the Everywhereist. Her writing has been called “consistently clever” by TIME Magazine and “dark and hilarious” by the New York Times. Her blog post, “I Made the Pizza Cinnamon Rolls from Mario Batali’s Sexual Misconduct Apology Letter” received more than a million views. And if you haven’t already read it, you must. I’ll link to it below. In addition to chatting about her unlikeliness as a travel blogger and her love for baking and “real” cinnamon rolls, we chatted about aging, living to 140 years old, how she ended up standing at the airport in her underwear and how her blog and twitter posts have turned more political since the November 2016 elections. I had so many other questions for Geraldine but I was under a bit of a time constraint and we couldn’t dive into a couple of subjects I was so looking forward to chatting about including her brain tumor experience. But we both agreed that we need to sit down again to chat so look for a Part II with Geraldine hopefully in the not too distant future.

For music engineer Justin Watson, music has always been a part of him. Growing up in Detroit was tough. He lived near the stretch of highway known as the 8 Mile Road, in a neighborhood where everyone and everything was about work. Watson, who goes by Jay Wat, had to grow up fast. Music kept his family tight. Wat's parents would put on basement parties that got the whole neighborhood dancing to Roy Ayers and Sly and the Family Stone. In the sixth grade, Wat's mom bought him his first boombox, and he'd play his cassette tapes on repeat. In high school, Wat got a hip-hop education in Detroit's "school of hard knocks," where DJs spun records, b-boys breakdanced to the beat, and emcees battled with freestyle rhymes. In a new episode of I Made it in San Diego, a VOSD podcast about the people behind the region's businesses, Wat talks about how he turned his love of music into a career. “It just became a point to where I wanted to really do this full on,” Wat said. “I didn't make a conscious decision yet that I wanted to be a producer, a music producer. But I just felt like I wanted to be involved in music some way. Somehow, destiny guided me.” Today, Wat is busy with more than 100 clients at his La Mesa studio, Jay Wat Production Studio. A lot of the artists he works with are young and come from inner-city communities like southeastern San Diego. Many of them mirror his own experience growing up in Detroit: Getting in trouble with friends, struggling in the classroom, and feeding a voracious appetite for music. Wat views music as a way to offer the guidance and mentorship that was often missing during his childhood. “I feel like I am a part of these kids lives,” he said. “And I just want to see them do so much better and succeed.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jennifer Luce has made a name as an architect who takes an artful approach to designing buildings. Her firm, Luce et Studio, designed the Nissan offices in La Jolla, Extraordinary Desserts in Little Italy and dozens of other award-winning projects in San Diego and beyond. On a new episode of I Made it in San Diego, Voice of San Diego's podcast about the region's businesses and the people behind them, Luce talks about how she got an unexpected break early in her career, and how she has worked to keep the momentum going ever since, with varying degrees of success. At her first job out of architecture school, Luce was tasked with designing prisons. She needed a creative outlet, so she entered a prestigious international design competition. More than 500 firms across the world applied, including people three times her age, with decades more experience. She wasn't even a licensed architect yet. But the jury saw something special about her design, and selected it as the winner, effectively putting Luce in charge of a multimillion-dollar project, the Center for Innovative Technology in Virginia. "Winning a competition early in life is a really pivotal thing to happen to you because you're jolted forward even if you might not quite be prepared for it," she said. The experience gave Luce the confidence she needed to strike out on her own. She always knew she wanted to be her own boss, but she had to rebuild her firm three times before it finally took hold. Finally, though, her firm is landing the kind of clients she's always wanted. It's behind the redesign of the Mingei International Museum in Balboa Park and is designing buildings for other arts and cultural organizations. "Through that perseverance, the work that you're meant to have comes to you," Luce said. "And we are at a moment where we're just doing exactly what we want to be doing."

Back in 2001, the internet was a weird and wonderful place. It was devoid of the much of the online entertainment and noise of today. It was a place where a couple of Santee kids could do silly but entertaining things like bring the video game Tetris to life by running around San Diego dressed as a Tetris block – that people noticed and enjoyed. In a new episode of I Made it in San Diego, Voice of San Diego's podcast about the region's businesses and the people behind them, VOSD contributor Dallas McLaughlin talks to Rocco Botte, Derrick Acosta and Shawn Chatfield about how they turned their funny internet videos into Mega64, a successful online business with thousands of fans worldwide. Botte, Acosta and Chatfield never set out to build a business. As theater geeks who grew up in Santee, they started out making free videos for fun. But the right people saw the videos at the right time, and set the trio on an unexpected trajectory that has lasted for more than 15 years. With over 400,000 YouTube subscribers, over 100 million views and over 70,000 subscribers to the Mega64 podcast, the three continue to ride the wave of internet success. "We're even called the cockroaches of the internet," Chatfield said. "Because we're never like the biggest thing, but we're always around and not really going away, and you can't kill us. We can survive anything." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Diana Ocampo is a fighter. In a new episode of I Made it in San Diego, Voice of San Diego's podcast about the stories behind the region's businesses and the people who made them what they are, Scott Lewis talks to Ocampo about the battles she's faced and the businesses she's built, then lost, then built again. When mixed-martial arts first started getting big, matches were illegal in California. Still, Ocampo saw an opportunity, and launched MMA matches at a venue in Tijuana. Her events quickly took off, and she outgrew the space just in time for California to lift the ban on the sport in 2006. The matches she organized at places like the Del Mar Fairgrounds, Starlight Bowl in Balboa Park and casinos across the San Diego region attracted thousands of fans. She was one of the only female MMA promoters in the nation, and her business became a big financial success. But then she got cancer — and lost everything. "Going from having been very comfortable to nothing was very shocking," she told Lewis. What she didn't lose was her resourcefulness and resolve. She found someone who believed in her entrepreneurial ability, and got an investment that helped her open Total Combat Paintball. Without knowing anything about the game, she quickly built that business into a success, too. "I'm like OK, let me figure this out," she said. "And I did."

So after reading the book Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle by Tom Venuto, I got re-inspired to really try weight lifting. I HATE WEIGHT LIFTING due to the soreness that always follows. So what changed my mind? I shut up and did. I got up at six AM and went to the gym. The next day, as expected my muscles were sore, but I only notice when I move. So going from standing to sitting, sitting to standing, etc. Most of the time, I might notice a little plumpness, but in reality, on a scale from one to ten, it's about a three. Most of the day I don't notice it. I need to buckle up, suck it up and just do it. Physically inactive people can lose as much as 3% to 5% of their muscle mass each decade after age 30. Even if you are active, you’ll still have some muscle loss. I'm now 52, which means I may have lost ou tp 10% of my muscle. This loss of muscle even has a name, "Sarcopenia." Sarcopenia typically happens faster around age 75. But it may also speed up as early as 65 or as late as 80 In the same way that almost every book I read says to eat a good healthy breakfast, they all say changing your body requires weight lifting (either via weights or body weight exercises). How I'm Able To Tolerate Exercises I Hate. 1. I Made it a Game I've got an app, and I'm going to use it to make weight lifting a game to see how I can compete against old workouts to see if I can make it better. When I go to the gym I've adopted an attitude mentioned in the book and that is "I don't want to go to maintain; I go to the gym to improve. And if I want to improve, then today I must aim to beat my previous workouts and do something I've never done before." Now do be silly and over do it, but realizing there should be progress in the future it the mindset I have. 2. Made it Easy I found an app to track and customize my downloads. While you don't need this, I wanted the documentation to track my progress (more on this in a minute) 3. Ensured Success The first time I attempted to get up at Six AM I failed. I reached out an turned the alarm clock next to my bed off and went back to bed. On Wednesday in addition to the alarm clock, I set my phone as an alarm and put it in a place where I would hear it, but have to get out of bed to turn it off. 4. I Lie To Myself Lifting weights for the rest of my life is depressing (although who knows as a month I might like this). So my goal is to get to 190 by February 8th 2018 (my 52nd birthday). It is an aggressive goal, but I'm committed. By telling myself, "It's only until February" I can stomach the pain as I know it's not forever. 5. I Give Myself Pop Talks I mentioned a few episodes about using non-flattering pictures as motivation, I've also made posters with my goal weight, my goal date, and a slogan like "YOU GOT THIS" and I've put it in my kitchen, my bathroom, and other places I see on a regular basis. I've also found a cool affirmation app (more on that later). 6. I've Got Some Skin in the Game I spent some money on some new tools (Skulpt Chisel, and some apps) so I need to get my money's worth. Skulpt Chisel Review I came across the Skulpt Chisel on YouTube. I saw very chiseled men singing it's praises. What is it? It's a device that looks like a plastic wallet. You spray some water on some sensors and push it against your body in different locations to get insights into your body composition (how much fat, and how much muscle). It syncs with your phone (works on both iOs and Android) and gives you an overall reading on your body composition as well as each body party. It's not shocking as a man in his 50's with a body that looks like a man in his 50's my worst area is my belly (abs only 29.9% muscle). The Skult Chisel is $99 so I bought it knowing I really wanted to track all of my changes (and I love gadgets) A Very Rough Start Anytime I buy anything electronic, I expect it to need to update the minute I get it out of the box. After all, how long has it been sitting on a shelf somewhere? What the PDF didn't tell me is that for me to connect to the skulpt, I needed to go into my Bluetooth settings of my phone and disconnect all other Bluetooth devices. I sat trying and trying to connect my phone and it just wouldn't. I would find it, the device would turn green, and it would prompt me to press a button and that would then lock it up. Thank God for Google. I was able to find a Facebook group with some clues. I turned off all Bluetooth devices, and I put it on the charger to be able to update the unit. This took me an hour to figure out. I was really surprised that while everyone and their brother is reviewing the Skulpt Chisel, there are very few videos (and zero from the company) on how to use it. They give you a squirt bottle and a pdf. I had no idea how much to squirt on the sensors before pressing it against my body. It turns out you only need a squirt or two. So the learning curve was pretty bad, but once I get it all setup and syncing, everything works fine. You can do a full scan (where you measure many parts of your body) or a quick scan (which scans around four parts of your body). I did get some help with Skulpt on Facebook, who pointed me at their help desk I'm still not sure how I missed their support area, but I did. Skulpt Chisel Fairly Easy to Use Once I go through the initial setup and update, the Skulpt Chisel is pretty easy to use. You don't have to spray that much water on the sensors. You might occasionally have to reposition the unit to get a good reading, but so far I'm happy with it. While my Withings (now owned by Nokia) scale lets me know my body fat percentage (29.3) the Skulp Chisel said I was at 31% and let me see where the problem areas were. The Analysis Needs Work I liked that it lets me know I need to work my shoulders and even gives me names of exercises I could do to build those muscles. Then when I click on the name of the exercise it leads me to a page that apparently had a video at one point, but it was removed. So it's helpful, ( I can search the exercise and find a video) but it just left me thinking that they are understaffed. Some Features Not Available Some videos I saw on YouTube mentioned it would give nutrition advice. That does not exist at this point and time. Overall Summary About Skulpt Chisel Yes the setup procedure was a nightmare and they need to update their PDF, but once it's going (and since you read this article you shouldn't have as bad an experience) I like it, and I believe the graphics it generates will help motivate me to keep going. More Information Available Here Workout Tracking Made Easy With the Stacked App. I've tried a few apps in the past and they seemed geared toward the bodybuilder with uber options or made shaping a list of exercises into a workout confusing (pumping weight app). The Stacked App is for iOs only at this point, and I love the fact that I was able to log in, click around and figure out how to add an exercise that wasn't listed (even though their list is impressive) turn those exercises into workouts. Then as I was actually doing the workout it was super easy to enter the weight and reps (and add exercises on the fly if needed). You can try it for free, but it's only $4.99 Key Points: Create your own workout routines, or choose from one of our pre-made workouts for both men and women Pay once, and you’ll get lifetime access to everything Stacked has to offer, as well as free upgrades as it improves You’re going to love how elegant, simple, and uncluttered Stacked is, both visually and functionally.

I had no choice but to try Bitchin' Sauce. It was years ago, and Ryan Smith was at the farmer's market in Hillcrest. He was so enthusiastic and wildly upbeat about his "bitchin' dips, so I stopped to give them a try. Yum. The sauces – which are sort of like hummus but made with ground-up almonds instead of garbanzo beans – are good. They're also vegan and fit other restrictive diets. And Smith had a whole charming farmers market schtick that sucked people in. It didn't take long for Bitchin' Sauce to take off – both because of the flavor and Smith's knack for pitching the product. After making the rounds at local farmers markets, Smith and his sister Starr Edwards enlisted their family for help and started getting stores across the state to sell the product. Bitchin' Sauce, based in Carlsbad, grew to about $2 million in annual revenue by 2015, Smith said. That's when the trouble hit. A small disagreement among the family morphed into an all-out legal battle that left Edwards with total control of the business. The rest of the family was left scrambling, wondering what to do next. "Imagine going from a six-figure salary to nothing," Smith said. "Moving out of your house with your wife and baby, moving in with your brother and going, what are we going to do?" In this week's episode of "I Made it in San Diego," VOSD's podcast about local businesses and the people behind them, I talked to Smith about how he picked himself back up and helped build a successful family business once again. Edwards is now CEO of Bitchin' Foods. She declined to speak with me. Rather than wage an all-out battle for the business, Smith and the rest of the family let it go. A few months after the grueling split, they started building a new business called Good Lovin' Foods, the cornerstone of which is a trio of healthy vegan sauces the family claims are better than the last. Smith said the family is now making more than they were when they left Bitchin' Sauce behind. But the new business' growth hasn't come without challenges. "It definitely was not easy," Smith said. "And it hasn't been without battles – like everything going wrong. ... It has been a battle, but we're growing." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's hard to imagine, I know, but there was a time when San Diego wasn't so sure about fish tacos. When Ralph Rubio opened the inaugural Rubio's on Mission Bay Drive in Pacific Beach, people still expected a taco to have a crunchy shell and contain some sort of beef. It took some time before Rubio's original fish taco, with its soft, yellow corn tortillas and beer-battered fish, caught on. "There was a lot of resistance. I was surprised when people would say, "What? Fish in a tortilla? What are you thinking?'" Rubio told me on the latest episode of "I Made it in San Diego," VOSD's podcast about the people behind the region's businesses. "That thought never occurred to me. And so I was I was ignorant of that, or that possibility. I didn't realize what a marketing challenge I was in for." We all know how things turned out, though. San Diego ultimately embraced fish tacos so hard that they're now the thing people seek out when they visit the city. In fact, Rubio's initial challenge of marketing the fish taco eventually morphed into the opposite problem: The company grew so much, so quickly, that it created a whole new set of problems. And even though the fish taco is now a San Diego icon, Rubio said he's also had to pull items off the menu on occasion when they proved unsuccessful, including a calamari burrito and a cheeseburger taco. The company has pivoted to recent years to focus on fresh seafood and healthier fare. "People were looking for delicious grilled seafood options and it's hard to get delicious grilled seafood in a fast-casual setting anywhere in the United States. That was our market opportunity. And so that's what we went after," Rubio said. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I Made $10,000+ From A Blog Post By Luke Kling I published an article on November 24, 2013 that has made me over $10,000 in the past three years. As a blogger, you are not usually overly concerned about making money from every article you publish. You just want to get your content out there so people will read it. Sure, it’s nice to make a few dollars from ads or affiliate links, but overall you just hope someone reads what you publish.

New Village Arts started as an idea Kristianne Kurner had for a theater company back in the late 1990s. At the time, Kurner was a member of the first graduating class of The Actor's Studio in New York – an intense program led by James Lipton. When Kurner graduated, she left New York for Los Angeles and started a family. But the theater scene in L.A. wasn't doing so well at that time, so Kurner instead decided to make New Village Arts a reality. In the latest episode of “I Made it in San Diego,” VOSD's podcast about the region's businesses and the people behind them, I talk to Kurner about how, with just a couple thousand dollars, she moved her family to Carlsbad and started a scrappy little theater company that eventually grew into one of the region's most respected (Disclosure: I've done some acting for New Village Arts). The company's first production was inside an old chicken coop. "It only had 25 seats, so we sold out every show," she said. "It was really a great way to start because it got us a lot of attention." With more fans than it could pack into a chicken coop, New Village Arts had to upgrade. Kurner struck up a friendship with Judi Sheppard Missett, the founder of Jazzercise, who offered the group a space to rehearse, hold classes and produce shows in the back of the Jazzercise warehouse. The shows filled up, classes kept getting added, and New Village Arts quickly outgrew that space, too. It finally found a new home in the heart of what would become the thriving area known as Carlsbad Village. The company's shows attracted new people to the neighborhood and played a role in its transformation. "What we always believed was that if we did really good, quality work then the people would help to support it,” Kurner said. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There aren't any slick commercials or campaigns advertising Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps. And yet, you've probably heard of the product. The soap is different – some might say a little weird. The most memorable feature isn't the soap itself; it's the labels, which are packed with over 3,000 words about “God's Spaceship Earth,” Mohammed, Jesus, the Marxist welfare state, arctic timberwolves and more. The quasi-religious rants on the labels were written by the company's founder, Emanuel "Emil" Bronner, an eccentric man who started by selling his liquid peppermint soap to people who would first listen to his soapbox lectures about uniting humanity. When he realized that more people were showing up to buy the soap than listen to what he had to say, he started printing the main tenets of his philosophy right on the labels. In our latest episode of “I Made it in San Diego,” VOSD's podcast about the region's businesses and the people behind them, Emil's grandson David Bronner, CEO of Dr. Bronner's, talks about how the family's company has grown from a quirky sideshow soap with a cult following to a multimillion-dollar brand that folks can find at places like Target. David Bronner said the first big boom happened in the '60s, when the rising hippie counterculture embraced the soap, both for its messages of love and unity and for its sustainable, organic ingredients. "My granddad's message just caught fire and became the soap of a generation," he said. Tax problems caused some setbacks – Emil saw Dr. Bronner's as a religious, tax-exempt organization, the IRS did not – but the company, which has its factory in Vista, has continued to grow at a rapid pace. David Bronner attributes the success to putting the company's progressive ethos and messages it champions at the forefront. Issues like fair trade, progressive employment practices and legal marijuana have become central to the business, garnering the company a lot of press. "It's kind of the way my grandpa did it," David Bronner said. "We fight hard for the causes we believe in. And you know we're kind of like cause marketing 101, but way beyond it. People respect that we're not just doing it for the marketing bang, we're actually in our fights to win them." David Bronner, for instance, once locked himself in cage filled with hemp plants in front of the White House in an effort to make the case for the legalization of hemp harvesting in the United States. Hemp is an ingredient in the soap. David Bronner was hesitant about joining the family business, but the activism that's become a big part of his job has made running the company about a lot more than just soap. "It turns out you can write soap into all kinds of interesting, fun, adventurous things," David Bronner said. "And so I'm never bored." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I take three separate fitness classes a week to supplement my running workouts, including one at Barry's Bootcamp in Hillcrest, a franchise with locations across the country. San Diego has lots of similar options for the fitness-inclined: CorePower Yoga, OrangeTheory Fitness, CrossFit. One fitness franchise helped pave the way for all of them, and it started with one woman teaching classes out of rec centers in Oceanside. Judi Sheppard Missett, who is still Jazzercise's CEO and continues to teach classes, didn't set out to build a fitness empire. When she moved to Oceanside after college, she was trying to make it as a theater actress and singer, and just wanted to teach classes — a modified jazz dance workout she invented — on the side. "But as luck would have it, or karma, or whatever — the universe had something else in store for me," Sheppard Missett tells me in our latest episode of "I Made it in San Diego," VOSD's podcast about the region's businesses -and the people who made them what they are. At one point, Sheppard Missett was teaching so many classes, she developed nodules on her vocal cords, and lost her voice. That seeming setback ended up being a game-changer for Jazzercise: Sheppard Missett decided to enlist other instructors whom she could teach her routines to, and they ended up fanning out around the county, expanding the reach of the classes. When instructors moved away, they brought the classes with them, which opened the door to franchising the business. After that boom, though, came challenges, including a lawsuit over how instructors were required to look, and eventually, stigma about Jazzercise as being old-fashioned. "Sometimes when you're a pioneer, you develop a little stigma because people say to themselves, 'Gosh they were a big hit. We remember when back in the '80s, and they still around, what's going on?' And of course we we are still around," Sheppard Missett said. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join us this week on Christian Devotions SPEAK UP! when host Scott McCausey talks to Natasha Owens about how God helped her during the tragic loss of her father. Natasha Owens strives to perform songs of restoration that can help each listener through whatever trial they are facing, to let them know they are not alone—that there is a God who loves them and will never leave them. Her prayer is that when people listen to her songs, they feel God’s perfect peace, love, and comfort through the words, knowing with God’s help, they can make it through. Just four years ago, Natasha’s father died tragically and unexpectedly, sending Natasha into a dark world of grief. An invitation to serve as a music minister in her church was the beginning of her healing and led to the genesis of her first album, I Made it Through. Primarily an album of restoration songs, it soon caught the attention of music industry heavyweights, leading to performance opportunities with Michael W. Smith, Jason Crabb, Sanctus Real, plus multiple award-winning producer, Ed Cash, who decided to jump on board for Natasha’s sophomore record, releasing Spring 2015. Aptly titled We Will Rise, it is a continuation of a journey of healing—from surviving to thriving. “The project took on a very clear direction,” she says. “I knew I had made it through, but it was time for more.

Today’s featured guest is Jacquelynn Buck. Jacquelynn is a full time portrait and wedding photographer based in Tucson AZ. She has been building her boutique studio over the past 9 years. Jacquelynn was a speaker at the 2015 WPPI Photography Expo for her 5 consecutive visit. The quote Jacquelynn shared was great and so inspiring! "What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?" -Robert H. Schuller. Hear how Jacquelynn lives by this quote and how it brought her to her "I Made it Moment". Note from Jacquelynn I am a: full-time, totally enamored Pro photographer {#dreamlife}, Foodie {#sotasty}, wine-lover {#drinkme}, travel junkie {#takemethere #morethanonce} + coffee addict {#wakemeup} I am a: philosophical, introspective dreamer and an energetic, outgoing, dynamic do-er. I write {travelblog} when it moves me. I love to cook. I adore rooftop bars {#viewfromthetop} and look for one in every city I love, live and travel to. I am obsessed with quotes. Fresh flowers make me happy. But photography makes me smile. Sometimes in that shy, delighted, just meeting someone kind of way. Sometimes in that broad ear to ear grin kind of way. Still. And hopefully always. This is a world that I belong to that I embrace fearlessly, distinctively, with just a touch of sparkle and a little bit more than a little bit of sass. I own a boutique portrait and wedding studio, and have for 9 years. Yes, I love and live to travel, and capture everything I can along the way. And yes, it is business {#hardwork}, but it’s primarily a love affair. A journey. A surprise around every corner. A connection with the unexpected. An opportunity to meet with people who share my drive. A chance to explore the sides of me that are vibrant, bold, colorful. An ever-shifting balance between what is unique and ordinary, simple and complex, real and imaginary. Photography is a challenge. And a delight. And it was a fork in my road, the path less traveled, but the one I’m glad I chose. This is my story. And the story continues because I don’t just do it. I teach it. To be inspired and to inspire, to seduce and be seduced. This is the heady thought that wakes me up every morning, that reminds me that today…today and every day… I get to do what I love. And pass that on to others.

Be sure and check my Facebook page regularly as that is where I announce the winners of a one month Social Media Mastery Back Stage Pass. How can you get in the drawing? Leave me a review on iTunes, and then take a screenshot of if and post it over on my Facebook page - http://JackieUlmer.com/fb I have been asked over and over again how much time I spend out online marketing my business, engaging with friends, fans and followers and just having fun. The answer is - not as much as you might think, it just seems that way. And, it’s designed to seem that way. I accidentally stumbled onto how powerful it was to build a name and presence for myself, and create a lot of links that pointed people to my blog, and my business. One day, I just popped my name into Yahoo, Google wasn't the big player yet, and I found over 100,000 links and references to me. This was about 2001 and I was shocked. I had been online about 18 months, and had no idea this was happening. I was just busy going about my day, and my business and my passion about reaching and connecting with people online. And, that’s how green I was, I had not idea and no premeditated thought about this happening. Once I saw it I got the power of be everywhere. Think of this - How many prospects are in your house that you haven’t talked to? Probably none, right? So, if you want to find 3 people today to talk to about your business, what must you do? Get out, go to Starbucks, a networking event, or anywhere to connect with people, right? A big mistake many first time bloggers make is thinking - if I build it, they will come. Not true. Not for quite a while, anyway. They spend lots of time creating content and yet no one shows up, and they wonder why. Takes a long time for Search Engines to find you. Videos can make it happen faster. But, it’s a slow grow if you are relying on Search Engines. I didn’t have that kind of time or knowledge. so… No time for SEO, or Search Engines Optimization so I focused on getting out and marketing myself, meeting others and giving them chance to know me and become interested. So, your own marketing efforts are how to start the process of being everywhere! Here was my strategy back in early 2000 and is still the same, mostly today. Write one new article a week. Share on article sites, my blog and email to my list. Post article with bio box out o discussion forums and areas where allowed. Send it to other site authors who accepted submissions Spend 30 minutes a week on SEO, one page at a time. The rest of the time, I was on forums and discussion groups where my target audience was, engaging, asking questions, answering questions and getting to know people out there. I was building a name, a presence and what would later come to be known as a brand for me! I was becoming the E F Hutton in my niche and people were becoming interested and clicking back to my site, joining my newsletter and many, joining my business. BINGO! It was WORKING, like a charm! As I did this, all of the answers and comments and article sharing I did created back links to my site, and put it into the Search Engines. I had no clue that was happening! SCORE! Bonus! So, Think outside of the Blog and BE everywhere. You are the one in charge of driving traffic to your content and your blog. Become a multi media machine - become the go to person in your niche. You want people to say - wow, I kept running into your name every where I went, so I decided I better pay attention. Remember E F Hutton - when E F Hutton talks, people listen - old commercial from the 80s. Today, here are my top lead sources, and it’s really not unlike my early days. I do the same, it’s just the platforms have changed. - Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and iTunes - yep, the iTunes one might surprise you! Here is what I hear - I was looking for MLM training, I found you on iTunes looking for audio training content. Now, I'm a blog subscriber. At the end of the show, I’m going to give you a checklist for your blog to make sure it is enticing and user friendly. Let me share how these social media sources have built a “be everywhere platform” for me. Facebook - It’s a natural fit for me. I enjoy spending time there and interacting, way beyond just business. I post my content there, which is all generic, I post also on my business page - http://jackieulmer.com/fb I built out a profile to give people links and info about me, and my goal is for them to click there once they become intrigued and want to know more. I share inspiring text images, engage with others and share photos and things going on. I share lifestyle photos, fun stuff, vacations, family times, funny things and so on. I get in the newsfeed, I have my friends in lists so I am check in with more people than just what FB shows me. I am involved in groups and pages. I show up consistently and check in 3-4 times a day, in short bursts. I use a kitchen timer to stay on task. Over time, more and more people like, comment and share my stuff, and it puts me out into a bigger audience. Now, let’s talk about Youtube - amazingly good. 3 billion video views a day, #2 SE, who owns it, Google? People have launched successful careers and businesses through Youtube alone. Create videos to answer questions, even more personal and you can send to the person and make yourself memorable. That leaves you with content to share with others who ask the same. You can do screen shot videos too. There are free services, Jing for one. Paid, better alternatives - Mac Screenflow, PC - Camtasia Studio Find top videos that are related, and look at keywords, copy, look at description - copy concept. People will find you through related videos…at the end. Use tags to make this happen more naturally. With YT, I share my videos on my Blog, embedding them; I post on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and so on. And, if the content is evergreen, meaning not date specific, I post it over and over again, spaced out over time, catching a new audience each time. And, those who have seen it before seldom remember. People go to youtube searching for education and information, how tos. It’s a powerful place to be found band double dip. To be found in YT and Google. Don’t forget, all of this training and more is accessible at http://SocialMediaBackStagePass.com Now, let’s talk about Twitter, kind of a newcomer for me! I didn’t get it, til I got it. Didn’t have time. Didn’t see the value. Was used to Facebook and I could see this was WAY different thanFB. I sought out influential leaders, not in Network Marketing but more SM marketing. I began to research, watch and model. I started marketing my content there, especially my podcast, on a much bigger scale and BOOM! It exploded my blog traffic, retweets and opt ins! I use Google Analytics so I can see where traffic comes from. It got so awesome, I hired and trained my daughter to become my SM Marketing assistant for Twitter updates, content and my Facebook page. I don’t outsource interaction, but content marketing is fine. I did a podcast on Twitter for biz and it can be found at http://JackieUlmer.com/021 IF you want to learn from me, follow me on Twitter - @jackieulmer So, moving on to Podcasts - wow! Found these completely by accident. Had heard the term and knew nothing about what they were, or how they worked, other than they were somehow linked in iTunes and you could listen. Home Business Radio Network - awake one night and played with APP - remember, I am not a techie. It opened up a whole new WORLD. I started listening to one other, which led me to another, and then another. Mostly Internet Marketing, not Network Marketing. One day I said - why don’t I ditch my weekly generic call, which ties me to a schedule and start doing a podcast, which ties me to iTunes and takes me WAY out there! So, this podcast launched in Fed 2013 and I MADE a DECISION and a COMMITMENT to be consistent for one year and then evaluate. Well, the rest is history. Today, I have a 5 day a week show, with M-W and Friday, the Q and A show, devoted to your questions. iTunes - podcast, expanded my reach into international markets. In fact, please comment in show notes if you found me and/or are intl. Can listen anywhere - mobile devices - smart phones, gym, driving, walking, sleeping…there is a connection made with the voice that doesn't happen with the written blog. Being in someone’s head and ears takes things to a new level. Since you are listening, you can probably relate. I did not need fancy equipment. I use my Mac with a decent microphone and all of the editing software is included. And, using and uploading to iTunes is free. I do pay $20 a month for storage and stats then I don't use my hosting bandwidth. It's easy and well worth it. My plan it to create a course to train network marketers specifically on how to do a podcast but here is the key - you must commit. You’ll look like an idiot if you “pod fade!” I also create a blog post for my podcasts and then share it on social media. So, I am "everywhere" with my podcast because it is on iTunes, in google player, Stitcher and, now all of the popular smartphone apps for listening this way. When I google my podcast name, I am blown away at the links. Interviews are a great way to fill your podcast. Be intentional and on point - don't waste people's time. So, the key is create content and then market that content through social media, develop a group of raving fans by going value and making them feel special, letting them know they are special, and they will help you “be everywhere!” Social Media - share content and drive back to your blog. Youtube to blog, and share post. podcasts to blog, and share blog. Re post content. Keep track of highly trafficked posts. Engage with others. It won't work otherwise. Be a real person and a real friend. Groups and pages Build an Email List - critical. Think about this - when do you check your email for the first time in the day? Build a relationship with that list. Offer value over and over and sell on occasion. Content Pyramid - Blog, Social Media, Podcast - the blog is at the top, and the bottom two corners are anchors to drive traffic to my blog. Blog - here are the critical items you need. You have about 7 seconds to impress people when they first arrive. If they know you ahead, that time goes up. But, it’s still a short amount of time! Make sure you have an Opt in form on every page. Well laid out, not confusing - a confused mind says no! Make sure you have a clear path to what you want people to do. Here are mine at http://JackieUlmer.com - sign up for my newsletter. START Here. First impressions. Share ability! Use social links. Okay, so there you have my “be everywhere” strategy from early 2000, and still what I do today. It has not changed that much and I often chuckled. As much as things change, online, things stay the same. Marketing, connecting and valuing people NEVER changes! Here are your 5 Action Items for today - Take a look at your blog and get it in order if it’s lame. Make sure you have lead capture on there, above all. Layout a weekly strategy for creating content. Remember, the work you do ONCE pays for you over and over. Keep a text note file of your content, blog posts and the links. This makes it much easier to share it over and over again, very simply and set up tools to help with this. Make a DECISION and a COMMITMENT.
