A Feature I Didn't Expect | BrandStack Podcast - 001The transcript below was provided by Substack and cleaned up by ChatGPT.Hey Gang,Ross Brand over here on Substack and in your email inbox, depending on where you're taking a look at this.Wanted to let you know, first of all, you probably now know, but I want to let you know that I am on Substack. And while this is a writing platform and I plan to do and have been doing some writing lately on Substack, I'm also going to take advantage of their built-in audio and video tools.You can not only upload podcasts and host them right on Substack, but you can upload videos and have audio posts, video posts, podcasts with audio and video in them. The basic podcast post is an audio post. But you can post video as well. And you can also record, as I'm doing right now, you can record video natively. You can record audio natively right into the Substack platform.Subscribe on SubstackSo that's what I'm doing now, testing it out, seeing what the quality is like, what the experience is like recording. And so far, it seems pretty good. I did a brief test earlier and it seemed to come out okay.And so I thought I'd just come across in a manner in which you're normally used to seeing me. And as I said, I'm very much right now into publishing and working on books and self-publishing as well as digital audio and digital video.So I'm excited to be a part of Substack because it is a publishing platform and you have your own publication. Mine's called Brandstack Books and Broadcasts. And so I plan on doing a mix of long form writing, short form writing, roundups, but also audio and video podcasts and even live streams.There is a live streaming feature. In fact, that's what sort of tipped me over the edge to finally get started. I had created an account just for occasionally reading Substacks but I didn't do anything with it. Once I saw there was live streaming on the platform, I said, okay, this is the thing that's going to push me over the edge. Now it's time.I always wanted to set up a publication. I always thought it was a cool idea. I started a LinkedIn newsletter back in January or February, and I've been doing that fairly consistently across this year. I'm going to continue doing that, and I'll also publish it on Substack as well. But I'm doing a lot of pieces that will be exclusive to Substack.I'm also going to do audio and video, whether native to the platform like this is or I pre-record elsewhere and then upload, but they'll only be available on Substack, at least for a while. Then I may add them to one of my podcast feeds, or I may put some clips on YouTube, but I'm looking to do some long-form interviews as well as short interviews.Some videos will be 10 minutes, but some may be a deep dive like the one that's coming up with Kim Doyal, where we talked about everything from newsletters and email. We got into all the different newsletter platforms, of course, and why she loves Substack, but we also talked about the pivot she's doing in her business, just different philosophies and approaches to life and business. It's a fascinating conversation. Kim is such a great storyteller. She's been a pioneer in newsletter email marketing, what I call the second generation of it. It's not your grandparents' email newsletter from 2002 or 2003, but this has kind of been the revival of newsletters over the past few years, and she's been at the forefront of that. And we got into a lot of other stuff as well.She's been a success...
Kim [00:00:00]:Hey, guys. Welcome back to part 4 of this special series called Everything is Content. First of all, thank you so much for listening this far this week. And if you haven't listened to the first three, I highly recommend them because they all kind of build on each other. But today, we're gonna talk about documenting. We're gonna talk about documenting with a little bit of a twist. And if you've not registered yet, I am hosting a live Everything is Content workshop next week, March 6th at 11 AM Pacific time. Or if you can't attend live, of course, there will be a recording.Kim [00:00:32]:And if you've reached this or listened to this, after March 6th, you can still get the on demand workshop. Alright, guys. That's it for now. Let's jump into today's episode. Hey there, it's Kim Doyal, and welcome to my show, where digital marketing meets real stories, experiences, and strategies. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at what's working and not working in my business, as well as other experts who show up and share their stories. As much as I love talking about marketing principles and tactics, we'll dig a little deeper with mindset and explore what's required to create a business you love on your terms that also supports your life. I wanna help you understand the why behind the how.Kim [00:01:13]:Whether you're a seasoned marketer or just dipping your toes in, remember that marketing is a journey, and the goal is to enjoy it. My desire is to guide you on your journey and remind you that no matter what life throws at you, you've got this. Alright, guys. Welcome back to video 4 of the everything is content series. Now today, we're gonna talk about documenting, but with a little bit of a twist. And I believe I I I'm gonna quote Gary v as saying document, don't create. I don't know if he's the originator of the statement. I'm gonna assume he is, but, and to some extent, I agree.Kim [00:01:49]:But unless you're you're somebody like Gary v or you have someone like Gary v. What was his his video guy's name was d rock? I don't know if he still does. I'm assuming he does, because he's pretty he's consistent. Right? When he believes in a philosophy, he's he sticks with it, and it's worked well for him. And I like him. He's a nice guy. I met him in an elevator one time, you guys. Just me and him.Kim [00:02:13]:He took a selfie. I didn't have my phone, and he emailed it to me. So he really is a nice person in real life, too. Anyways, for me, my day-to-day life looks a little bit boring. Even when I was in Costa Rica, and moving back there, I intend to be a little more interesting regarding what I share behind the scenes. But, you know, my day-to-day looks a little bit boring. So the only difference might be what I wear unless I decide to record 4 or 5 videos in a row, all in the same hoodie, but so be it. You know, people would be bored watching that.Kim [00:02:48]:So I wanna give you an example of something I'm documenting, and then the twist that I intend to put on this piece of content directly becomes it's because it's gonna become a profitable asset. And so I recently shared with my email list that I will move from Convertkit to Beehive for my email marketing. I made this decision just a couple of weeks ago, and I shared in an email that I was gonna do it, and that it would be done in phases. And so I'll go way more in-depth into the post but I have loved beehives since they first came out, but it didn't have the capabilities of doing a lot of stuff that you need email marketing to do. Like, I mean, you could do a solo broadcast, but at the same time, the tagging and the segments and automations and stuff. However, a lot of that is changing, and it just was not a full-blown robust email service provider. And out of the gate, it was incredible to publish newsletters, but there were just too many...
Hey, guys. What's going on before we get into today's episode? This is a special series that I'm doing this week. It's a 5 part series based on Everything is Content. Now you might remember, I don't know, a month and a half ago, 6 episodes or so ago, I did an episode on Everything is Content 2.0. And I'll link to that in the show notes for this. But I'm actually hosting an Everything is Content workshop, and so this is kind of a preview for that. This was a 5 part email series that I have since turned into videos, and now I'm doing this as a podcast. So you'll get a taste of the 5 part framework.I know this sounds a little meta, and we're getting a little into the matrix here, but I watch how I do this, but this is a taste of the framework itself. And again, you can go to kimdoyal.com/eicworkshop if you wanna join me in the live workshop I'm doing. It is on Wednesday, March 6th. So, depending on when you're listening to this, if if that date has come and gone, then I'm gonna be continuing to either do this live or you'll be able to just get the workshop itself. Again, go to kimdoyal.com/eicworkshop. Alright, now here is part 1 of Everything is Content. Hey there. It's Kim Doyal, and welcome to my show where digital marketing meets real stories, experiences, and strategies.You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at what's working and not working in my business, as well as other experts who show up and share their stories. As much as I love talking about tangible marketing principles and tactics, we'll dig a little deeper with the mindset and explore what's required to create a business you love on your terms that also supports your life. I wanna help you understand the why behind the how. Whether you're a seasoned marketer or just dipping your toes in, remember that marketing is a journey, and the goal is to enjoy it. My desire is to guide you on your journey and remind you that no matter what life throws at you, you've got this. Hey, guys. What's up? Kim Doyal here, and I'm doing a 5 part series called Everything is Content. Now, I came up with the hashtag Everything is Content back in 2016.I'm not going to repeat that whole story here. Still, if you want a little more behind-the-scenes of how that came about, I did a whole podcast episode recently, and it was Everything is Content 2.0, which is an easy guide to getting started, you know, got to use those, what you call it, good headlines, right? But this is all based on a 5 part email series where I'm giving actual examples of everything as content to show you how you can apply this to your own business and how it can translate into conversions, whether that's leads or sales. Now, we're going to go a little bit deeper with this. I'm also working on an ebook that I hope should be done within a month or so. I might do an audio version because I clearly love doing this, but these are what I do with this, so let me back up a little bit. So, Everything is Content is based on the idea that I'm one who I hate keyword research. I know there's value in SEO. I'm not negating that at all, but with AI, I feel like that's kind of a race to the bottom, and who knows where it's going to be a year from now? But my whole goal with Everything is Content is to get people just to start creating, right? And seeing that there are content ideas all around us that fit under this umbrella in our business.You don't need to only talk about email marketing or for me, email marketing or content marketing. Right? Or I love using AI for content, but not necessarily to write for me. There's a whole other marketing element that I use it for. But sometimes I want to talk about, hey, guess what? I'm moving back to Costa Rica. I am. Or, you know what? This is what I do when I feel out of alignment. Or, this is how I ground myself each day. So, all of those are under the umbrella of who I am in my business.That's where everything is content comes into play. All of our...

Welcome to another episode of the Kim Doyal Show. It's been a while since I've done a I was gonna say live interview, but it's live for us. So we'll go ahead and run with that. And I'm excited because I think this conversation is gonna go in directions that neither of us are really aware of, but it's gonna be really fun. My guest today is Addison Best. So first of all, Addison, thank you so much for being here.Addison [00:01:06]:Well, thank you for having me, Kim. It's I think we talked about a little bit before this started. I haven't spoken to anybody in, I feel like, a decade. I used to have an English learning podcast with my brother, but that was all audio. Now, I'm just looking in my camera, and I feel like a deer in headlights, and I'm just kind of like, oh, wait. This is how I look? And I'm kind of freaked out, but I'm gonna try to calm down and carry on, I guess.Kim [00:01:30]:Yeah. Well, you know what's funny is it's almost like because I wanna do the eye contact thing, I'm like, well, I'll just go ahead and look at the camera and not worry about seeing myself or whatever. But, yeah. No. This is gonna be fun because first of all, for a little backstory about, you know, Addison had reached out to me. And this just goes to show you guys in the fall, and I was not getting the notifications from Gravity Forms. So it was like, oh my god. I've missed all these but before we get into a lot of the meat of what we wanna talk about, which we're gonna kinda go down this AI and and the impact it has on content and email, I love the backstory, Addison.Kim [00:02:12]:So if you could share your backstory with listeners, that would be great.Addison [00:02:14]:Well, it's funny. Yeah. I've been sending Kim, random emails that are kinda rants recently, so I didn't even know if she was getting it or she thought this guy's a bit nuts or whatever she was thinking. But I do it anyway because I'm trying to get back to my

Welcome to another episode of The Kim Doyle Show. Really excited about the conversation with my guest today. Adore her, but also the topic of conversation. And, of course, we are going to talk about online marketing and her business. But, my guest, Lynn Jericho, is in a spiritual space, which is very near and dear to my heart. So first of all, Lynn, thank you so much for being here today.Lynn [00:01:08]:It's great. I'm really looking forward to it, Kim.Kim [00:01:12]:Thank you. So I love doing this. And so before we get into questions and business and and everything, I wanna hear your story. Like, what brought you To creating your business, which is imagineself.com. And we're gonna get into that. Of course, everybody, all the links will be in the show note. But, You know, let's you don't have to do the life story, but, you know, the trajectory that brought you here to what you're doing today.Lynn [00:01:37]:Alright. Well, I've where I'll begin is, looking for a school for my kids, And I discovered a school called Waldorf, which a lot of people know us around the world. It's the The hottest education program in China right now, which is interesting, but this is back in the eighties. And I found this wonderful school and loved what it did for my children, got very involved with what was behind it In terms of this picture of how the human being develops and I was off and running. It just made such sense to me. I got it so quickly, And I started sharing it with people. So in the early nineties, I started giving talks and workshops And advertising in the local newspaper, that sort of thing. And, And I was working and I was working on writing a book.Lynn [00:02:38]:And then, 2004, I was in front of, the big tree at Rockefeller Center in New York City, And it was so electric, and This is an electricKim [00:02:54]:So you're talking about the Christmas tree?Lynn [00:02:56]:Yeah. The environment. Alright. Man I mean, Manhattan Christmas is just a wonderland, but it's all electric. There's nothing real, unless you have a couple of good credit cards. So, anyway, I went home and I I sent out an email to my list on Gmail, which was about 260 people. And I talked about the holy nights, which is a a path of going inward between December 25th and January 6 between Christmas evening and, epiphany. And so that was my first Digital gesture.Lynn [00:03:41]:I I just thought I was a spammer. I mean, I I was terrified. Preston, because I said I'm gonna send you a message every day with an inspiration for what you can think Or work with or contemplate or meditate. And instead, I started getting all these emails, please put me on your list. I want these messages. So the 250 people were sending it out to friends, and it really grew. And then 2 years later, I decided, to do a video on what is this inner Christmas all about. And I was working on a...
Kim Doyal 0:01 Welcome to F the hustle. I'm your host, Kim Doyal. You want a life that is meaningful and exciting. In this podcast, we're going to talk about launching and growing an online business that fits your lifestyle. After the hustle is all about doing good work, building real relationships, and most importantly, creating a business that supports where you want to live your life. You don't have to sacrifice the quality of your life today to create something that sets your soul on fire. And yes, that includes making a lot of money. So we'll be talking about selling, charging, what you're worth, and help earning more means helping more people. My goal is to help you find freedom and create a business on your turn. Hey, what up what up? I am super excited today. My guest needs no introduction, but I will introduce him. We're not going to do the typical rewind of tell us about your backstory, because he's been on the show a few times. My guess is my good friend Jason Resnick. Jason, thanks for being here today.Jason Resnick 0:58 Yeah, thanks for having me, Kim. Um, I can talk nerdy about email all day long. So I'm happy to be here.Kim Doyal 1:06 Yeah, and I always feel a little guilty when I'm like picking your brain on our other calls. I'm like, like, I should be paying for this. But I'm grateful for everything. So I have to explain to the listeners, viewers, why I asked you to do this, because it was kind of funny how this whole thing started. So for those of you who are not familiar, Jason and I ran an experiment last year, we have, we had a newsletter called Get deliberate, where every single issue of the newsletter was an experiment on growing your email list and adding subscribers and we did it from scratch with that brand. And so we kind of hit a point where it was like, I don't know, have we covered a lot, I think 40 Something issues of that. And so we put it on pause the contents amazing, we're going to repurpose that repackage it somehow at some point this year, but this is what happened. So we have we Jason and I both use ConvertKit. And by the way, Jason has nurture kit.com where he's, he is a ConvertKit, expert, duck, duck nurture. kit.co Sorry about that. And of course, res.com but and I'll have all the links in the show notes. So just stay focused on the show. So here's the story behind the evolution of this experiment and conversation that we're gonna have today is that so Jason and I both use ConvertKit. And then we use ConvertKit. For deliver it? Well, because of that we know ConvertKit sends you a weekly summary of sales and conversions that you've had with with your email marketing, once every week, because deliver it was linked to Jason's account and my app and my personal account, we each had it linked. So I was getting these emails, it's like, here your ConvertKit sales, and every week it was I don't know, do you mind me giving numbers through automations? Okay, all right, you know, 1200 $1,500 every single week, and I'm like, well, this isn't my shit. Excuse the language, but it was just like, What is he doing? Because, honestly, Jason, so I have a follow up sequence. And I offer something at the end of it through one, one lead magnet at the same time. There's so many other things that can happen. And it took me way too long, if I'm being brutally honest, to implement that. Because, you know, I just, there's always so much to do is how it feels. And I've had my account, I don't know how long at this point. I'm like, I need to go in and clean up and do this and whatnot. And then I get into everything is liquid, and then I want to do coats. Right? But you've totally simplified that. So for everybody. I just wanted to explain, like Jason lives, breathes, implements, just does all the things. He's not just talking to talk. And I witnessed it firsthand. So I'm like, Alright, this is a priority for me this year with with my personal brand. And of...
Kim Doyal 0:01 Hey, what's going on everybody? Welcome to another episode of F hustle with Kim Doyal. I, of course, I'm your host Doyal. And I'm just doing a little preview clip for today's show because I jumped right into it saying, We haven't you know, we haven't done anything in a long time. And it was specifically referring to today's episode, which was a conversation plan conversation between myself and Joe Hirsch, my co founder of the content creators plan. So I thought I would just do a little preview clip here. So it makes a little bit more sense. When you listen to this. We did record this on video, which will be up on YouTube.

And while we love the product, and we have loved working with everybody and helping everybody with through content creators planner, we're finding that we're both just way more focused on and excited about other things. And we're really doing a disservice to CCP, and to our audience.

It's, it's been wild, you know, starting something and launching something here before the world went upside down.

I feel like my good friend come on. And we've known each other like two months or something. But this I feel like it's been a long time coming, but it hasn't we met a few months ago. My guest is C'mon Chung. Did I say your name correctly? Unknown Speaker 1:04 That's correct. Very good. Kim Doyal 1:06 Okay, I was like, you know, it's funny, I have a tent, I do this. And I'm like, Kim, you need to clarify this before you actually get on the interview. But anyway, Kibana and I connected through Twitter. And I just kind of fell in love with his content and what he was doing. I signed up for his free email course, which he's going to talk about everything he's doing. And one of the best things that I just love this is in his follow up sequence. He said, hit reply, and tell me, he said I reply to every email. And he did. And I just thought, this is friggin brilliant. I shared what he was doing. It was it was just a real fun engagement. And so come on. Thank you for being here today. Unknown Speaker 1:45 Yeah, thank you, Kim, for having me here. Seriously, I reply to 100% of my email. But sometimes like seven days, late 14 days late, like today, I was replying emails 14 days late. But late is better than never showing up. Right. So that's my, that's my way of doing things. Kim Doyal 2:04 Oh, absolutely. And you know, it's funny simply, I obviously love email. I do so much with email. I still it's kind of my almost a preferred choice of communication.

And you do this full time now you're a full time creator, and I should we should clarify for people. So our time zones are a little bit off. It's eight o'clock in Costa Rica. Where are you? And what time is it for you right now? Unknown Speaker 2:33 Well, I am based in Hong Kong is 10pm over here. But if you ask me, I am living in my computer right now. Because most of my friends are actually online, I just feel more connected to people like you, who were doing similar things where we're passionate about what we do, and it's hard to find it locally, honestly. Kim Doyal 2:56 Oh, you know, it's crazy. I was I'm from Northern California, San Francisco Bay Area, and I was out in the suburbs. So it was very, it felt very difficult for a long time. Like nobody gets what I do. Nobody understands. Unknown Speaker 3:09 I guess I feel the same way. Kim Doyal 3:12 Yeah, absolutely. And I'm a big believer online friends are friends. So how long? I'd love to hear your backstory, like I said, what got you into doing this? You know, a lot of people, you know, maybe it's just a desire or quit a job, whatever. But how did you start your online journey? What were you doing before? Unknown Speaker 3:30 So you know, the kind of life changing point for that is 20 months ago, I felt like a nobody. And I will tell you why. Because I have been in startups all my career for nine
I'm just back after having my last visitors for a while (my sister & niece were here for 10 days, it was fantastic!) and after a couple of nights of good sleep, I feel ridiculously excited about everything that's going on in my business. My first official day back to work was yesterday (July 7th), and I didn't schedule much other than a couple of calls (I did a little work while my family was here but not much). The only reason I kept the calls scheduled was because they fill me up: a mastermind call I have with two dear friends and my call with https://nurturekit.co/ (Jason Resnick )(my partner with https://getdeliverit.com/ (Deliverit)). Jason and I hadn't talked in a couple of weeks because of my schedule so we had a lot to catch up on. If I hadn't had a massage scheduled we probably could have talked longer (we schedule an hour but went about 90-minutes). It was my call with Jason that inspired this episode, so thanks, Jason! The idea for this 90-day plan was Jason's idea based on something he's doing for himself, and there's something about setting up accountability for me that just works. SO.. here we go! What inspired this 90-day sprint Planning and doing things in 90-day blocks isn't something new, I've done it plenty of times. The difference with this was instead of deciding to plan for 90-days a specific goal inspired this 90-day sprint. I've been anxiously waiting for ClickFunnels 2.0 to come out ever since I saw the preview video from Funnel Hacking Live last fall. It was supposed to be released in March of this year (2022) but didn't quite make it. They finally announced that it will be available on October 4th (which falls in line with the 90-days quite nicely. thank you Jason ). Initially, I thought I'd just use it for funnels and products… but right now I think I'm going to move my ENTIRE business to https://kimdoyal.com/clickfunnels (ClickFunnels.) WHAAAAT?!?! I know, I know… I haven't even used the new platform yet, so let me explain where this is coming from. I moved my brand from The WPChick to Kim Doyal in 2018. Ever since I made that pivot I've gone much deeper into everything I do. This includes: Marketing (general) Copywriting Email marketing Newsletters Sales Funnels Content (what I enjoy creating) Traffic It's not that I wasn't doing these things before, but so much of what I did had to have a connection or tie to WordPress that I felt limited. I felt massive freedom when I pivoted to my personal brand. As much as I love tech and tools (I'll continue to share them in the newsletter), my heart is in entrepreneurship and growing something that makes an impact. The deeper I got into these things (more writing, creating different products, etc.), the less time I had for playing with tech. I'm grateful for everything I've learned and feel like I've got a very solid foundation when I need to do something (i.e., can't hire someone), but at the end of the day? I can't be bothered. I've never been a ClickFunnels hater. Ever.In fact, I was an early adopter of https://kimdoyal.com/clickfunnels (ClickFunnels )(and have used it on and off over the last 7+ years) and shared it with a friend (who went on to make millions in e-commerce with the platform). When ClickFunnels came out the only other tool for creating anything similar (that wasn't WordPress), was LeadPages. And still… they didn't have the entire ‘funnel' piece in place. There were a handful of WordPress tools at the time (OptimizePress) and I don't remember what else, but it all felt like a pain in the ass. There was a time when certain tools triumphed over others and there were clear choices… but not anymore. The best tool to use for anything is the one you're going to USE! Whichever tool you feel most comfortable using and gets the job done is what's most important. Then there are all the people who hate on Russell Brunson. Say what you will… I think he's brilliant...
Kim Doyal decided to “JustShowUP” and started turning everything into content. She captured moments that most would overlook and shared them. Let's learn how she did it.

Kim Doyal: 0:00 Hey, what's up, everybody? Welcome to another episode. I'm really excited. Today, my guest is going to talk about something that we all need are probably not doing well and can do a little bit better. So my guest is John Ainsworth of Data-Driven Marketing. Thank you so much for being here today. John Ainsworth 1:36 I'm delighted, what an honor. Kim Doyal 1:40 Yeah, so we connected and we do have to give the listeners a little bit of a backstory because we're recording this and you're getting a November and I think it's kind of fun. We connected through a good friend, Jimmy rose, James rose, depending on where you're connected with him online. And John is in Mexico, and I'm in Costa Rica. So we're sort of having this tropical conversation today. Yeah. John Ainsworth 2:03 We're both just loving the fact that it's beautifully warm in November, it is a wonderful thing. Kim Doyal 2:11 It is, I think I'm going to be in shock going back to California in December, even though it's California, it definitely cools off in the winter. So I'm like, What am I gonna wear? Did I bring anything to wear? John Ainsworth 2:23 And I have it on my packing list when I travel. If it's going to be cold when you go back, pack a jacket, and hat and scarf, and gloves and just like don't get to the airport and go, Oh God, what am I done? Kim Doyal 2:37 I mean to wear flip-flops and get out and snow this is. John Ainsworth 2:41 Exactly yeah. Kim Doyal 2:43 Anyways. Yeah. So I'm totally excited to talk about this day, John, because, you know, it is there was a time when funnels were not a common marketing language. It's what you guys do. But before we get into that, how did you get into your funnels? But how did you start your online business what's a little bit of backstory, I love hearing how people got to where they are. John Ainsworth 3:05 So this is my second business. And my first one was I used to work in sport and physical activity marketing, I used to be campaigns manager for Sport England, who's like the National Organization for sport in England. And I'd run campaigns for them. And then I set up a business on my own. And I would do that for local government and health charities. And I would get inactive people into physical activity cancer patients, disabled people, people from teenage girls was a really hard one actually harder the toddler to get teenage girls active than it is to get cancer patients. And I'm Kim Doyal 3:42 just gonna let that sink in for a minute. But that's pretty funny. What you should do is send them on a scavenger hunt to find their phones. Go ahead. Yeah....

And what he does, I'll let him do a quick little bio, we've gotten much deeper into his business in previous episodes. But the reason I reached out to Kyle is because he responded to an email about time lotteries. And we're going to talk about that in a minute. So this is going to be much more of a free flow conversation. We're going to talk about thought management mindset, running your business in a way that works for you. And we're gonna just see where it goes. So for those who have not listened to Yo, Kyle, or have had the good fortune of our previous conversations, give a little background. Kyle Van Deusen 2:55 Yeah, my name is Kyle Van Deusen. As you can probably hear from my accent, I am from Texas. So forgive me for that. But I own a small agency here in Texas that I've had since 2017. About a year after I started that I started an online community called the admin bar for web developers, freelancers, agency owners, and that has grown tremendously over the over time, we're at about 5000 members now. And at this point, my business that's taken over to kind of take up most of my time at this point. So it was before the agency was full time in the community was part time. And now it's the community is full time in the agencies getting a little bit more part time. But yeah, as long as as long as it has to do with web, I'm usually in the middle of it. Kim Doyal 3:37 Perfect. And he does have Kyle is a believer in email and newsletters as well. He's got the Friday chaser, which is a great newsletter. And I will link to that you guys can opt into...

Hey, what's going on everybody? Welcome to another episode of the hustle with Kim Doyal I am effing the hustle in Costa Rica. As you can see, welcome back. I'm so excited today for a number of reasons. But the to specifically one my guest is a dear friend and coaching client, love her energy, love everything she's doing. And the second reason is we're going to talk about something that I have jumped back into and I'm committed to mastering. So first of all, my guess is Karen Michaels. Karen, thank you so much for being here today. Karen Michaels 1:52 Yeah, that was super fun. You are having the hustle all day long girl. Kim Doyal 1:56 I don't know where that came in. You know, I don't always do that. Like, ah, but today was one of those days. And this is a total non sequitur. I bought the shade for this window over here. And I couldn't figure out how to roll it up. Right. Well, I figured out how to roll it up. So I was like, oh, like again. Karen Michaels 2:13 Oh, you can see the ocean as a current desert dweller. I use the ocean waves as my regular focus sounds. Kim Doyal 2:24 You know, it's funny to to because I've got all the everything shut with AC on. Yes, yes. From that down a little. Alright. So first of all, Karen, before we get into our topic, Mm hmm. Tell the audience who you are what you do. And you know how you run your business? Karen Michaels 2:43 How I read my wells, oh, my gosh, Kim Doyal 2:45 you're all day with that one. But I think really going in the right direction. And so a bit with sort of some off script, which is what I do, which will lead to why we're talking about this specific topic today. So Karen Michaels 2:58 yeah, sounds fun. Your girl Well, I am. I am a solopreneur here in Las Vegas, Nevada. And I'm also a singer and a pianist who happens to love technology and apple and writing. And I had been dabbling, and it was 100% of side hustle, right? I was dabbling with social media. And I was helping friends or a client would say, oh my gosh, I love what you did. Can you mock that up for me right quick before the gig, you know, hilarious. And I was like, Sure, no problem. And then, of course, when the pandemic struck, and quarantine happened, I'm gonna be honest, my business took off. And thank goodness it did, right. Because there wasn't any live performing or any of that sort of, I'm also a teacher. And so none of that was happening. Kim Doyal 3:50 Let me just clarify your voice teacher. Karen Michaels 3:53 A voice teacher? Uh huh. Yes, yes. And so I would, I was like, wow....

Unknown Speaker 2:13 Yeah, totally. I feel like I actually benefited from the pandemic, because now nobody's going out and meeting people. And they have to meet people like me online. So that's yeah, that's been like one cool and unexpected side effect. nice side effect of the pandemic. Kim Doyal 2:31 It is, it's nice to see those benefits. And I mean, it just, I think it forced a lot of growth and opportunity online in general. So I think it's fantastic. Okay, so, enough about that. But I would love to know, you know, we did a live stream talking about newsletter glue, and I'll let you explain what that is. But I don't know much about your backstory, if you wouldn't mind sharing with listeners, kind of, you know, how you got into all this what you're doing prior to creating and launching newsletter glue? Unknown Speaker 3:01 Yeah, how far would you like me to go back? Kim Doyal 3:06 Maybe with your entrepreneurial journey, or you know, I mean, whatever you feel like sharing honestly. Unknown Speaker 3:12 Um, so my very first job, or my very first real job after after university was in the government in the airport.

If you found your way to this episode from my newsletter, thanks for taking part in one of the areas I lack most in: emailing my list. If you're like me, stuck in a proverbial hamster wheel of self-doubt & content creation, today's episode is for you. In fact, if it weren't for today's guests, I would have never got back into pressing send in MailerLite. (A recent switch from MailChimp, because I have a bad feeling about the Inuit acquisition.) If you need a boost of confidence or a programmatic way to warm up your newsletter engines again, Kim Doyal and Jason Resnick are here to help — with a twist.

Matt Report - A WordPress podcast for digital business owners
If you found your way to this episode from my newsletter, thanks for taking part in one of the areas I lack most in: emailing my list. If you're like me, stuck in a proverbial hamster wheel of self-doubt & content creation, today's episode is for you. In fact, if it weren't for today's guests, I would have never got back into pressing send in MailerLite. (A recent switch from MailChimp, because I have a bad feeling about the Inuit acquisition.) If you need a boost of confidence or a programmatic way to warm up your newsletter engines again, Kim Doyal and Jason Resnick are here to help — with a twist.

Hey, what's going on everybody? Welcome back to another episode of the Kim Doyal show. I'm excited today because we're gonna dig into something that I don't know a ton about. Obviously, I'm very aware of it. And my guest is going to peel back the curtain, so to speak. So my guest today is Kevin Ramsey. He is one of the co founders of Warren James. And we're gonna dig into that. But first of all, Kevin, thanks so much for being here today. Kevin Ramsey 1:08 Thank you for having me. I'm stoked to be here. Yeah, so Kim Doyal 1:11 this is great. And this is, I'm just gonna share this. And any of these little tidbits that you can share with your story would be great. But we connected via Twitter. And I've been saying to people recently, you know, having moved to Costa Rica, and like connecting with people here that I'm sure it's similar for you so much of my business has grown because of relationships. So I love that you just reached out to me, we had a little conversation, you're very patient, I'm like circle back in a month, we had a conversation. And so just the point in connecting and having real relationships with people can really shift the trajectory of your business. Kevin Ramsey 1:48 Yeah, without a doubt, I've been trying to be more proactive personally, when it comes to platforms like Twitter and LinkedIn, and those connections are at your fingertips, it's just a matter of like, you know, putting in the time looking around, like for me recently, I've been really focused on the new phrase, you know, called the crater economy and seeing who else is involved in that space. And yeah, it really, really helps with your business and helps with your personal growth, like having those connections, whether it be something now or like, years from now, right? Like having that relationship. Who knows what that can mean for you. Kim Doyal 2:21 Exactly, exactly. I'm, which I don't want to go sideways with my stuff. But I am doing an event down here next year. And it's crazy. I think I've landed a sponsor a pretty big sponsor already without even having a hotel book because of relationships. So it's it's just one of those things. And I love what you said too. I am obsessed with the quote unquote, crater economy. I love that it's this tangible thing. Now, it's not just what creators call themselves. And just a side note, if you're not following her follow Cody Sanchez, she is amazing. She has. This is a random thing. I don't know her personally. But she has a newsletter and a platform. It's called contrarian thinking. But she's all about diversifying in the crater economy as well. So it's pretty fascinating. Anyways, I want to dive into Warren James, which I'm gonna let you explain what it is. And then before we go too deep into the company, I'd love to know a little bit of your backstory. So feel free to jump in where it suits you best. Kevin Ramsey 3:20 Yeah, totally. So I guess a quick little synopsis of Warren James. We've been around for a little under three years now.

Today's guest is Kim Doyal. Kim Doyal is a content-planning expert, and she really cares about getting to the heart of the realness of an entrepreneur and bringing it forward. She's an entrepreneur, a coach, speaker, and podcaster. She's also the co-founder of the Content Creators Planner, and she's built her lifestyle personal brand business through content marketing, podcasting, email marketing, and a commitment to just showing up. Kim Doyal has a unique story and was widowed in 2003.

In case you haven't heard, content truly is queen (or king ;)). The whole world is hungry for things to read, watch, play...you name it, and you know what that means: there's always room for more brilliant minds in the industry. Here comes the challenging part - once you break IN to the industry, you'll find yourself racing to break OUT from the pack as so many others around you make their plans for World Domination off the back of a very similar blueprint. So now for the million-dollar question: how exactly can we stand out just enough to turn a relatively common skillset into an envy-inducing career? There's no need to dye your hair pink or drive a fancy car, although the latter might just come with the territory. Stumped? Kim Doyal might have a few ideas. Formerly known as The WordPress Chick, Kim stands out for all the right reasons, and she's no one-trick pony. In fact, she does such a wide range of things that you might wonder whether she ever actually sleeps, but like the anchor in an ocean of lists and to-dos, everything comes back to her passion for content marketing. These days, Kim spends her time working with agency owners to develop and implement a content strategy with the pull power to gather a herd of hungry followers all on its own. In this episode of Profit and Impact, Kim talks Nev through the value of making others feel better, being gentle with yourself on the road to greatness, and the magic of Harry Potter. So what's this conversation REALLY about? Going all-in on your dreams How to satisfy both your passion and your paycheck The problem with a herd mentality Why you shouldn't overrate your “nuisance factor” Why you should listen Kim Doyal is the ultimate mobile mentor. Whether you are a marketing expert, a high school student, a top CEO, or almost anyone in between, Kim's words will make you feel like part of her own herd (in a good way, of course). Links Kim Doyal You can quote me on that... "You're not going to get good at something by not doing it." - Kim Doyal “I like to think I'm a very positive person, but I'm constantly beating myself up and when I can step out of that I do great things.” - Nev Harris Like what you hear?

Today’s interview for the Millionaire Secrets podcast is with Kim Doyle & Jodi Hersh. Kim, otherwise known as The WordPress Chic, is an entrepreneur, coach, podcaster, and content creator. Jodi is a Smartist. She’s run her own design agency for almost 20 years and is also the owner of a pet brand called Live Love Dog. They joined forces for the project: The Content Creators Planner. And that’s the subject of today’s podcast. Namely, content marketing and content creation. More specifically, Today’s podcast is about the importance of planning your content marketing calendar and your overall strategy. I can’t emphasize enough, How important this topic is. If only I’d known what Kim and Jodi are teaching in The Content Creators Planner… It would’ve saved me a year and a half of blood, sweat, and tears. Once I finally started to structure my content marketing correctly, with clearly defined goals, the growth of my business exploded. An increase of 1700% in just 6 months! There’s more… Kim and Jodi’s journey with starting The Content Creators Planner project is an interesting one. It’s interesting because they’re both veterans in the digital marketing and online world. Despite this, they still went through a learning curve with this project. They made mistakes. Took wrong turns. Burnt through ad budgets. Hired the wrong agencies. And more! But, being veterans… ...they were able to deal with these ups-and-downs with a calm and almost stoic acceptance. It’s probably something that a lot of newbies in the digital marketing world struggle with. Take a look to see how Kim and Jodi navigated their way from… Idea > to failed launch > to successful launch > to scaling.

Matt Report - A WordPress podcast for digital business owners
In this episode, Matt Medeiros is winding down Season 7 by interviewing Kim Doyal, who is “formally” known as the WordPress Chick. Kim has been obsessed with content since closing out all the service work in her previous business. She is presenting the Content Creator Summit the first full week of March and has a closed Content Creators Facebook group that people have been quickly joining. She and Matt discuss the move to SaaS and how that was a “happy accident” that allows her personality to show in her new business endeavor. Listen to this episode: Matt Report - A WordPress podcast for digital business owners How to readjust when you're sick of the same old thing Play Episode Pause Episode Mute/Unmute Episode Rewind 10 Seconds 1x Fast Forward 30 seconds 00:00 / 00:59:47 Subscribe Share RSS Feed Share Link Embed Download file | Play in new window | Duration: 00:59:47 What you will learn from this Episode: WordPress has been a great space for people to begin to build their business. (3:10) Business owners and the market space have matured with WordPress. The space is consistently moving forward with new products and tools. (5:39) You have to bring more than a statement that I can build your website. You should be able to offer more to keep the business growing and act as a strategic partner to people. (7:30) A freelancer can make the agreement to get ongoing business by offering to partner with a client for a three-month engagement working for free. (9:23) At the end of a three-month engagement, you will know how to measure and what to charge once you see the Return on Investment (ROI) from a working case study. (11:09) As you are working with a client in any arrangement you are building your own content for future clients. (13:12) Getting the “right free customer” is the key to success. (14:02) Journey to a SaasS: Kim had a knack for finding the tools that people need and sharing the knowledge. (15:27) The business partner for Lead Surveys, Gordan Orlic was discovered on Kim's podcast. A strong friendship was started and they initially began to investigate building a plugin. (16:13) The pricing for the WordPress ecosystem was frustrating. There is also the struggle around people that do not want to pay much or can afford the plugin. (17:01) Kim and Gordan wanted a product with Lead Surveys that is visually appealing and user-friendly. (19:48) Lead Surveys was the perfect product to set up as a SaaS and the business is the perfect match for content marketing and development. (21:03) SaaS was the way to go for this standalone product to get out of the Envato structure. (23:36) Lead Surveys: You can personalize a new product to the client and connect with audiences in different conferences and networks. (25:42) Lead Surveys is a long game effort. There will be a podcast, client visits and all levels of opportunity to engage the community. (26:45) You need to keep investing in yourself that will provide a “true” income. (29:35) The best thing that Kim did for the building of Lead Surveys was to go back to the fundamentals and participate in high ticket Master Mind groups. (30:31) Growing and scaling the business came from the skills gained from Master Mind participation. The business needs to be aligned with how you feel. (32:26) Content Creator Facebook Group: The Content Creators Facebook has been growing quickly and creating an active community. (34:22) Relationships take time to foster. (35:48) Time is given to the group and building the community is what is working personally for Kim. (37:12) “Value Deposits” are being posted daily in the facebook group. People are giving to help other people and not monetize a product. (38:22) Membership Sites: There are a lot of people who do not understand memberships. You need to own your property and brand. (42:36) Many businesses are doing successful membership sites but it may have taken a decade to get the member list successfully built. (44:51) You need to realize the time that is needed to keep the commitment to Membership sites. (45:27) Self-awareness helps you find what you enjoy doing. To monetize your business you need to understand what works for you. (47:45) Look at content outside of your space to get ideas.
