PEOPLE STAY WHEN YOU CREATE A COMMUNITY One powerful way to grow your audience is by leveraging communities of other influencers. You can also leverage that attention to create a community. When another expert will put you in front of their tribe, they are endorsing you. That expert is telling his audience that you are someone the tribe should pay attention to. As you demonstrate your expertise to that audience, you build your authority and influence. You can then invite them to your podcast. CREATE A COMMUNITY FOR RELATIONSHIPS As you create a community that is powerful, you need to build a relationship with your audience. Spend time showing them why what you do is so important in their lives. Once you've built enough relationship with your why, you can then invite them to get more in your community. THE COACHING JUNGLE On this episode, I've invited Marc Mawhinney to join us to talk about his amazing community. Marc had been on the show in the past, and he is amazing. Marc Mawhinney is a lifelong entrepreneur who has been helping coaches get more clients (without paid ads) since 2014! He's the host of the "Natural Born Coaches" podcast, which has almost 900 episodes to date, and the Tarzan of "The Coaching Jungle" Facebook group which has over 25,000 coaches in the community. In this conversation with Marc, we delve into the art of creating and nurturing a thriving online community. With a focus on Marc's successful venture, "The Coaching Jungle," Marc gives you deep insights into the strategies and principles that have guided the group to grow to a robust membership of over 25,000 coaches. Discover the pivotal role that a strong foundation, distinctive branding, and the implementation of theme days can play in establishing a community that fosters engagement and growth. JUNGLE VIP One of the noteworthy discussions in this episode is the launch of The Jungle VIP membership, a transformative development aimed at generating recurring revenue and offering an accessible option for members not ready for larger packages. Priced at $97 per month or $997 per year, this membership includes privileges such as promotional posting rights, expert badge status, access to a private VIP group, and monthly networking meetings. Marc shares candidly about the initial concerns among community members, ultimately highlighting the positive reception and benefits of the VIP program. Marc Mawhinney brings invaluable advice on simplifying access to your community by utilizing a custom domain, making it more convenient for potential members to find your group. He also stresses the importance of laying a strong foundation before launching a group—picking a clear and relevant group name, distinctive branding, and consistent theme days, such as Promotion Friday or Book Sunday, to ensure a variety of content. As Marc underscores, providing consistent value to members while simultaneously monetizing the community is essential for its long-term success. GROWING YOUR COMMUNITY We also get into the intricacies of growing an online group, pinpointing the critical tipping point for the Coaching Jungle's growth at around 1,000 members. Marc attributes this surge to increased organic requests to join and emphasizes the necessity of promoting the community through multiple channels, including email lists and a dedicated domain name. Additionally, we discuss our early journeys into the coaching industry, highlighting similar pricing models and the importance of coaching in generating quick revenue streams compared to creating courses. We also touch a bit on the value of joint venture partnerships, where Marc shares his successful collaborations with industry peers like Terri Levine and Rob Goyette. These partnerships not only resulted in business growth but also provided rich learning experiences and enduring friendships. Marc's journey offers practical and actionable insights for anyone looking to build and sustain a vibrant online community.

As we celebrate 500 episodes of Podcast Talent Coach, I want to share with you six mentors who have shaped my journey over the past 10 years. LEARNING FROM MENTORS I learned long ago that I don't know everything and never will. Every experience is an opportunity to learn something. Conferences and conventions are always such a powerful experience for me. Many people say they rarely go to the session and instead have conversations in the halls. I can understand that. But, I think they are missing the power of the collective mind. Mingling in the halls during a conference will definitely grow your network. It has a place in your business. However if you skip all the sessions, you are missing ideas that could take your business to an entirely new level. We would attend the Country Radio Seminar every year in radio. I would travel with my music director for the station. During the day, we would take in all the sessions of the conferences. At night, we would split up to attend events and network with artists and record labels. From the sessions, we would learn new ideas to implement with the stations. At night, we would network with people who could help us implement those ideas. Then one day our company decided it wasn't necessary for both of us to be there. That single decision cut our learning in half and diminished the networking we were able to do. The company thought the conference was nothing but a party. It may have been for those who spent all of their time in the halls. When you're learning from mentors and expanding your thinking, things are possible beyond your imagination. These six mentors helped my achieve levels bigger than I every dreamed. It is my hope that these nuggets spur some new ideas for you as well. DAN MILLER The first is the mentor who has influenced my life the longest. Dan Miller's book and podcast "48 Days To The Work You Love" inspired me to follow my dream and start my own business. Dan is author of the New York Times best-selling 48 Days To The Work You Love and Wisdom Meets Passion, No More Dreaded Monday and An Understanding Heart. His 48 Days Podcast consistently ranks in the top 1% of all podcasts worldwide and his 48DaysEagles.com community is viewed as an example around the world for those seeking to find – or create – the work and the life they love. His podcast sits at the center of his multiple streams of income. Unfortunately, we lost Dan in January of this year after a very brief battle with cancer. Dan's attitude through that entire struggle was impressive and uplifting. He kept asking as he always did, "What does this make possible?" Dan saw the silver lining in every cloud. He was an amazing man and a mentor to me in so many ways. Dan joined my on Episode 466 to discuss multiple streams of income. You can find the episode at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/466. DAN'S NUGGETS Here are a few nuggets from that episode. Resilience in the Face of Adversity: "When we hit Covid and I couldn't have live events for a couple years there, that had been a big resource for us, a big revenue stream, but not being able to have live events, it didn't really affect us. My revenue continued to go up because we made content available to people in other ways that they could experience, even if they didn't come to Franklin, Tennessee."— Dan Miller 00:24:39 – 00:25:03. Life Reassessment in Midlife Careers: "What surprised me is I had doctors and dentists and pastors and engineers and accountants showing up and why you guys here? And it was like, well, we're doing okay. You know, everybody looking in from the outside to see us is doing okay, but I don't think this is it."— Dan Miller 00:26:29 – 00:26:45. How to Turn Your Writing into Income: "How do you take just a raw idea and turn it into real income? But those came directly from people asking, how do I do that?"— Dan Miller 00:30:42 – 00:30:50. Easy Income Streams for Podcasters: "The easiest next step is coaching. Because if you have a podcast and you're talking about personal development and growth or business success or how to scale or those things, you're inevitably going to have people ringing your doorbell saying, can I talk to you?"— Dan Miller 00:44:47 – 00:45:43. I'll always cherish everything I've learned from Dan and all the inspiration he provided. You can find more about Dan at https://www.48days.com. MARC MAWHINNEY The next mentor who has been a big influence on me over the past decade and 500 episodes was one of my very first coaches. Marc Mawhinney is a lifelong entrepreneur who helps coaches get more clients without paid advertising! He achieves this with his coaching programs, his podcast Natural Born Coaches, his Facebook group The Coaching Jungle, and his Secret Coach Club. Marc has been a speaker at events like Social Media Marketing World, frequently makes media appearances and contributes for Entrepreneur.com. He is a master at joint venture partnerships. I discovered Marc through his Coaching Jungle Facebook group and he soon became my coach. He taught me the power of sending a daily email. Our coaching sessions helped me refine my offers and get my business to the next level. Marc appeared on episode 333 with me to discuss the power of joint venture partnerships. You can find the episode at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/333. MARC'S GEMS Here are a few gems Marc shared during our conversation. Stand Firm on Your Beliefs: "Sure, you're going to turn some people off, but you're going to attract the people who you want to attract, and that's exactly what you do."— Marc Mawhinney 00:16:25 – 00:16:31. The Importance of Community for Coaches: "Whatever you do, you need a place to gather your potential clients. You know, people to get to know, like and trust you."— Marc Mawhinney 00:20:27 – 00:20:34. Viral Topic - The Power of Community: "I can't count how many times someone said to me, mark, I love your Facebook group. It's helped me so much the last few years."— Marc Mawhinney 00:20:55 – 00:21:44. I can't thank Marc enough for pointing me in the right direction with his coaching. Find Marc in his Coaching Jungle Facebook group. CINDY J. HOLBROOK One day Marc was invited to participate in a giveaway. It didn't fit in his marketing plan at the time, so he sent the organizer to me feeling we might work well together. That organizer was Cindy J, The Visibility Wiz. Not only did I participate in her giveaway, Cindy soon became my next coach and she's one of the best in the business. Cindy guides entrepreneurs and small business owners to thrive as you go up the ladder from being the best-kept secret to Trusted and In-Demand Authority. She has been coaching since 2009. Through our work together, Cindy taught me the power of visibility, how to use giveaways to grow my list, and ways to partner with others. She is simply an all around great person. I love her to death and really appreciate all she has given me over the years. Cindy was on episode 479 of Podcast Talent Coach to talk about visibility. You can find the episode at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/479. CINDY'S SUGGESTIONS Here are a few things we learned in that episode. From Social Services to Coaching Success: "But I have all this knowledge of the online world that I utilized to get clients. And, I was able to leave social services within 2 years of becoming a coach, and that's when I started attending a lot of events. And people were constantly coming up to me."— Cindy J. Holbrook 00:20:23 – 00:20:41. Title: Maximizing Advertising DollarsQuote: "My advertising dollars goes towards participating in giveaways or speaking in front of people, you know, being a sponsor at events. That's where my advertising dollars go because I get more return on my money that way."— Cindy J. Holbrook 00:35:04 – 00:35:18. The Power of Collaboration: "I didn't start collaborating with other experts till, 2014. And that's what finally pushed me over to 6 figures was whenever I started collaborating with other experts."— Cindy J. Holbrook 00:39:11 – 00:39:24. How to Boost Your Business Today: "If you start doing something every day, you make sure you do at least 1 money making activity Monday through Friday or whatever your workdays are. You're going to start seeing an increase in everything, in visibility, influence, and profits."— Cindy J. Holbrook 00:42:44 – 00:42:58. Cindy is amazing when it come to leveling up your visibility. Find her online at https://www.cindyjholbrook.com. IMAN AGHAY After I was working with Cindy for a few months, she suggest I attend Collaborate. It was an amazing 3-day event to meet JV partners. This one event changed my business more than I could ever have imagined. At the time, Collaborate was run by Iman Aghay and Rich German. Iman has been so influential in so many aspects of my business. Through this event, Iman taught me how to properly joint venture with others. He has taught me how to create my courses and events. More importantly, Iman showed my how to sell what I do. Iman Aghay is a serial entrepreneur, international speaker, and a nine-time #1 best-selling author. He is best known as the co-founder of Actionera, a platform that assists experts in building mobile apps to enhance their income and impact. Iman hasn't been on the podcast. However, I did a deep dive into finding promotional partners using everything Iman taught me. You can find that in episode 391 at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/391. IMAN'S INSPIRATION Here are few takeaways from that episode. How to Skyrocket Your Podcast Growth: "Just imagine how your podcast and your business could grow if you could find 40 partners who would be willing to promote you to their fans, to their tribe, to their followers."— Erik K. Johnson 00:01:07 – 00:01:14. The Best Part of Pitch Refinement: "But the best part is everybody in the circle's on the same page with regard to who talks, what they talk about, how long they talk. There's no pressure. You don't need to awkwardly walk up to anyone to strike up a conversation like you would in a at a networking event."— Erik K. Johnson 00:06:20 – 00:06:38. Power of Partnerships: "I've been able to grow my email list from about 500 to nearly 4,500. My podcast downloads have doubled. I've made affiliate commissions from promoting those partners, and I had partners promote my courses and my coaching to their audience as well just to help me grow."— Erik K. Johnson 00:10:08 – 00:10:30. The Power of Partnership: "If you wanna go fast, travel alone. If you wanna go far, travel together."— Erik K. Johnson 00:10:53 – 00:11:01.

He was Jim Padilla and he is my fifth mentor on this journey. Jim is a Global Impact Strategist & Investor and the founder and CEO of Gain The Edge. It's a done-for-you provider of industry-leading sales systems and unicorn sales professionals. Jim co-heads Gain the Edge with his amazing wife, Cyndi Padilla.

The transformation has been amazing. Jim joined me on episode 465 to discuss making sales. If you want to increase your sales, find this episode at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/465. JIM'S GENIUS Here are few nuggets from my conversation with Jim. From Struggle to Success: "And little did I know that, you know, 20 years later, I'd be making 1,000,000 of dollars teaching other people how to read the room and how to bend influence in their direction so you can be asset instead of a threat to the people who show up in your world, and then they wanna be able to buy from you and give you their credit card."— Jim Padilla 00:12:06 – 00:12:58. The Core of True Expertise: "What people need to dive into is they understand that you're an expert, but they really need to understand who you are as a person and why what you do matters."— Jim Padilla 00:19:07 – 00:19:11. Seeing Opportunities in Chaos: "All they see is all the problems that are in the world are truly just opportunities waiting to be solved if you know how to talk about it and know how to articulate it and to see things differently."— Jim Padilla 00:24:57 – 00:25:04. Maximizing Your Existing Network: "Most obvious buyers you have are the people who already bought from you."— Jim Padilla 00:44:07 – 00:44:10. Jim and Cyndi are amazing.

In 2013 I was writing articles about podcasting for New Media Expo. Out of the blue, I got an email from Dave Jackson at the School of Podcasting. He was interested in having a conversation to see how we might support each other. During that conversation, Dave said he loved my articles. Then he asked why I didn't have a podcast of my own. Great question, Dave. If I'm writing about podcasting, shouldn't I have a show of my own. Shortly after that conversation, this show was born. And our friendship has continued over the years. Dave Jackson launched the School of Podcasting in 2005. He was inducted into the Podcasting Hall of Fame in 2018. He is the author of the book, Profit from Your Podcast: Proven Strategies to Turn Listeners into a Livelihood. Over the years he has launched over 30 different podcasts with over 4 million downloads. Dave and I currently co-host the Podcast Review Show where we help podcasters improve. You can find that show at https://www.podcastreviewshow.com. Dave was a guest on episode 485 to talk all things podcasting. You can listen to that episode at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/485. DAVE'S BRILLIANCE Here are a few takeaways from my conversation with Dave. Viral Topic: The Importance of Mic Technique: "When I moved into this house had no carpet, and it was just this giant echo chamber. So the first thing I did was, like, okay. We need we need a carpet. We need some rug, something like that."— Dave Jackson 00:32:58 – 00:33:07. The Blue Yeti Misconception: "Technically, it's not a bad microphone, but what most people overlook is that thing can pick up, if you want, in every single direction. Well, that's just screaming, pick up the neighbor's lawnmower and everything else."— Dave Jackson 00:33:44 – 00:33:57. Mastering Freelance Success: "If I'm trying to position myself as an expert, I either want to interview people who know the people that should be hiring me or in some cases, just interview the people who should be hiring me."— Dave Jackson 00:37:54 – 00:38:03. Big thanks to Dave Jackson for all the help and inspiration over the years. Find Dave at www.SchoolofPodcasting.com. FIND YOUR MENTOR Those are six mentors who have had the biggest impact on my journey.

INTERVIEW GUESTS AND MORE Podcasters have been hitting me up with great questions looking for answers. Today we talk about booking big name guests and demonstrating your expertise during interviews without talking the spotlight from your guests. We will also answer questions about bringing energy to your podcast, podcasting 2.0, and the pros and cons of joining a podcast network. If you have a question you'd like me to answer, email me at coach@podcasttalentcoach.com. PASSION AND ENERGY I remember you always said to be authentic. And I'm doing just that. However, I feel that I lack energy. I certainly don't feel like I'm boring. And the stats are showing it. Something inside of me keeps telling me that I shouldn't decide how exciting I sound, it's my audience that will decide that. How do I overcome the need to feel that I need to bring the energy like John Lee Dumas but I'm afraid I will sound like a rodeo cowboy? I just want to be me. -Edwin Soler – Closing the 18 Inch Gap TWO DIFFERENT THINGS Passion and energy are two different things. You don't need to be JLD wild to have passion. When I hear you talking about the people you help or the struggles you've encountered at your last job, you get passionate. That doesn't mean you are overly energetic. You definitely do NOT want to sound like a bad wedding DJ or some horrible car lot commercial. People can easily identify fake energy. It's like a fake smile. Faking it will blow any trust you've developed with your audience. But being authentic will endear you to your audience. Authenticity is being real and revealing things about yourself. Being authentic is about stirring emotion. Think of a suspense thriller you've seen. These movies aren't over the top enthusiastic. However, I would argue they have a lot of energy. Suspense thrillers have you sitting on the edge of your seat with a knot in your stomach wondering what will happen next. Don't confuse sounding exciting with being exciting. BRING YOUR PASSION As you approach your podcast, be passionate about the topics you select. Smile a bit, and let the audience feel your enthusiasm for the content. It is similar to reading a story to your audience versus telling them a story. Reading the story to the audience doesn't have the same excitement and connection. When you deliver your content, vary your inflection a little. Stir different emotions throughout the content. Make them smile a bit. Get them choked up. Surprise them. Get under their skin and annoy them a little. Above all, let your audience get to know you. When you stir emotion and you talk about content that is interesting to you, I have no doubt you'll be authentic, energetic, and enthusiastic. CONNECTING WITH GUESTS What are some good strategies to attract and connect with celebrities to appear as guests on my podcast? My podcast is "Cancer and Comedy: Healing Through Hope and Humor" and can be found at cancerandcomedy.com. I'm looking to have guests who are entertainers and other public figures who have faced cancer and have a story to tell of how they overcame their circumstances to have success. Two examples of dream guests would be Michael J. Fox and his Parkinson's Foundation and SNL performer Vanessa Bayer who overcame Leukemia. -Brad Miller – Cancer and Comedy WHO DO YOU KNOW For really big stars, reach out to their publicist. I Googled Michael J. Fox publicist and found Sharron Elkabas and her phone number. A quick search of the publicists for stars will help you get started. You might also consider a subscription to IMDb Premium. The cost is $12.50/month when you buy an annual subscription. That membership will give you contact info to most representatives. When you are reaching out to people to appear on your show, lead with what's in it for them. How will the guest benefit by being on your show? You might start with people who have something to promote, like a book or new movie. They have a bigger incentive to make appearances. PAMPER THE AGENT OF THE GUESTS Next, take great care of their handler. That might be their manager, agent, publicist or assistant. Make sure you give amazing service to the person who serves as your contact. Make it super easy for them to get their client on your show. Finally, ask for referrals. Tell the guest and their agent that you are always looking for great guests who have a story to tell. Then ask who they know. Asking for referrals is tricky. You don't want to ask "Do you know anyone?" It is too easy to say "no". You want to ask, "Who do you know?" This requires an answer. You can also ask for referrals from people in your network. Tell everyone you know that you are looking for guests. Be clear exactly who you'd like. Then ask, "Who do you know?" At the end of the day, you might not start with Michael J. Fox. But you can sure work up to that interview. We are in a connected world that has reduced the six degrees of separation to just a few. Each time you ask for a referral, follow with, "I appreciate that. My ultimate goal is to interview Michael J. Fox and Vanessa Bayer. Do you know anyone who might know either of these two?" You never know who has the connection. PODCASTING 2.0 1. When do you think podcast 2.0 will become the standard? 2. What are the pros and cons to joining a podcast network? -Craig McManus – The Garden Question Podcast IT'S COMING Podcasting 2.0 isn't one thing. It is many things. Therefore, I don't believe there will be a single moment in time when it becomes the standard. I believe it will be implemented slowly over time. According to podcast hosting service Libsyn VP of Podcast Relations Rob Walch, "Less than 1% of all downloads happen with apps that support podcast 2.0 features." Adoption of Podcast 2.0 will be determined by Apple. It will come down to when and what Apple wants to incorporate. Because, most podcast downloads are still consumed via Apple. According to Podcasting2.org, "Podcasting 2.0 extends the RSS standard - the core technology that makes podcasting possible - to add new features. None of these features break any existing podcast feeds or podcast players, but, where supported, they enable podcasters to do more things, and enhance the experience for the audience." It can get very technical. In real people speak, Podcasting 2.0 will add some additional features that podcasters can use. The recent implementation of transcription is an example of 2.0. You hear a lot about it, because Apple has adopted it. You don't hear much about the other feature, because Apple isn't making a big deal of it. PODCASTING 2.0 FEATURES Some of the other Podcasting 2.0 features include: Soundbite TXT Location Value 4 Value Chapters Lock/Unlock Author/Credits Live Item Trailer License The lock feature is an example of the rough implementation. Hosts like Libsyn allow you to lock your feed, so it cannot be imported into other players without your consent. However, not all players play by the rules. They say they don't “recognize” the tag. Adoption of Podcasting 2.0 will be slow and piecemeal. I believe Apple will slowly implement parts of it such as author, chapter and license. But it may be slower to implement things like Value 4 Value unless Apple gets a cut. PODCAST NETWORK Whether or not to join a podcast network should be decided on benefits versus costs. What will you get by joining a podcast network? The biggest benefit is typically promotion on other shows across the network. You'll need to determine if those shows are speaking to your ideal listener. Will listeners of those other shows also listen to your show? If so, it may be a benefit. How much promotion do you receive? The network should give you specifics. They should tell you how many shows are on the network and how many times you will be mentioned on those shows. Where your promo on the other shows occur is also important. A preroll at the beginning is much more valuable than a promo tagged on at the end. Many more people hear the beginning than the end. There are other questions to consider. How many listeners do those other shows have? Does the network promote you outside of the shows on the network, such as email or social media? When it comes to the cons of joining a podcast network, consider the investment you'll need to make. How much are you required to promote the other shows? What happens if the network has a show you don't feel fits your brand? Can the network add other advertising to your podcast to make money for the network? Do you retain ownership of your content? How can you leave the network, and are you allowed to join another immediately or is there a non-compete clause? At the end of the day, how much are you willing to talk about other shows and promote other podcasts in order to promote your show to their audiences? How much return will you get for that investment? INSERT INTO INTERVIEWS HONORING GUESTS Question: My show is mostly an interview show with relevant experts on particular topics. Yet, I would also like to establish myself more as a trusted and knowledgeable person on the topics that we discuss. How can I insert my own voice more during interview episodes with experts yet without drowning out the expert's answers or acting like I want to one-up their answers? -John DeRosa – Classical Theism Podcast at classicaltheism.com SHINE THE SPOTLIGHT This is a struggle of many podcasters. You want to demonstrate your authority without stepping on the toes of your guest. I get it. Interviews are great for a few reasons. First, interviews can help you expand your network. The guest can promote the show to their followers. You can also tag them on social media as you promote your show. When you interview others, you don't need to do all the work. You simply ask some great questions, listen intently, and ask solid follow-up questions. A great conversation is engaging. Finally, you benefit by association through interviews. Your guest is subtly endorsing your show by agreeing to appear on your podcast. But, how to you demonstrate your authority with an interview podcast? There are three things you can do. ADD YOURSELF EARLY First, I like to present a bit before the interview begins. This allows me to demonstrate my expertise before the conversation. I will interview my guest. Next, I will determine the big takeaway from the conversation. Then, I will record a 5- to 10-minute intro to the episode where I teach around that topic. For instance, I interviewed Marc Mawhinney on Episode 487. Marc talked about the power of doing flat fee joint venture partnerships. After the interview was complete, I recorded an intro where I taught various reasons people would want to promote you, especially if you have a small list or audience. Money is just one of those reasons. Now I have demonstrated my expertise a bit and can focus on simply having a great conversation with Marc. If I want to offer a call to action, I can include it here before the interview begins. Everybody wins. ASK BETTER QUESTIONS The next way to incorporate you into the interview without stealing the spotlight from your guest is to ask better questions. Find ways to ask a short question that demonstrates your expertise. This strategy should be one or two sentences at most. It requires great editing on your part, especially with your follow-up questions. As an example, I might be interviewing Marc on JV partnerships. I might say, "I typically recommend my clients start by creating partnerships with those who really want to see them succeed rather than those just looking to earn money. What is your best tip to get started with joint venture partnerships?" This question does two things. First, it lets the audience know that I coach people. Next, it informs the audience that I have various ideas to use JV partnerships to generate revenue. I have just added a little of my expertise without taking away from the guest. It becomes an issue when the host wants to tell a story that takes three minutes before they get to a question. Be concise. Little by little you will build your expertise with every interview. EPISODES WITHOUT GUESTS The third thing you can do is create a solo episode between each interview episode. Your interview episode my be the great conversation around the topic. Then, you can create a solo episode where you dive deep into your takeaways from the conversation and how your audience can implement what they've learned. YOUR QUESTIONS If you have a question you'd like me to answer, email me at coach@podcasttalentcoach.com. I'd love to include you here on the show.

When it comes to growing your podcast and building your business, a joint venture partnership is a powerful way to find success. Many people view a JV partnership in a very simplistic way. The most common JV partnership is an agreement to promote a product or service in exchange for an affiliate commission. But, there are many other ways to leverage a JV partnership. Why would people want to promote you? This is a common question, especially if you have a small audience or small email list. There are various reasons, and money is only one of them. PARTNERSHIP FOR MONEY Money is surely one motivation for promotion. This is what most people think of when they hear JV partnership. In this agreement, you would provide your promotional partner an affiliate link through your system like ThriveCart. You can see the power of ThriveCart at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/ThriveCart. Your partner promotes your offer using their affiliate link. When their audience makes a purchase through your link, your partner earns a commission on the sale. You can also created a simple referral system if you're a coach. In this system, your partner would send an introductory email to you and the person they are referring to you. If that person signs up for your coaching, you can pay your referral partner a referral fee. This method requires a little more manual work, but you don't need a lot of software to help you set it up. Just track it with a spreadsheet. YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY The second reason people would promote you is because they love you. Your friends and family would be willing to promote you, because they want to see you succeed. Reach out to the people you know who also know others who could be your ideal client. Ask if they will help you spread the word. YOUR CONTENT People may want to promote you, because they love what you do. Your superfans love to be part of a winning team. When Alex Hormozi launched his new book “$100M Leads”, he had thousands of people promoting him. These people received a bonus chapter of the book when they hit a threshold. Alex's partners weren't in it for the money. They just loved what Alex teaches and wanted to be part of something exciting. He simply empowered his superfans to spread the word. PARTNERSHIP SWAPS The next reason people might promote you is for exchange of promotions. Partners will often promote you in exchange for promoting them. Sometimes, your list isn't big enough to match your partner's list. How can you give equal exchange? My tech guy wanted to be part of an AI summit. Unfortunately, he didn't have an email list largest enough to qualify. My tech guy came to me and offered some services in exchange for using my list. I will email about the summit to fulfill his obligation to the summit. In exchange, I will receive some tech work. He will promote the summit. In exchange, he will get exposure to the summit audience to promote his services. Get creative with your partnerships. ASSOCIATION PARTNERSHIP That other reason people might promote you is for association. These people may want to gain the credibility just by being associated with you. I volunteered as the Dean of Podcasting in Dan Miller's 48 Days Eagles community. I happily offered value in the community and promoted it whenever I could. The biggest benefit I received was being associated with Dan. He was a great man, and I was honored to be part of his world. Find people who want to be in your world. WAYS TO PROMOTE There are a variety of ways people can promote you and you can promote others when you create a partnership. The easiest way is to feature them on your podcast and get on their show. This is the best way to grow your audience. Podcast listeners listen to podcasts. Get on other shows. Cross promotion is the second way to promote each other. This can be in exchange for money as described before. It could also be simple exposure. In a cross-promotion, I could mail your lead magnet offer to my email list. In exchange, you could email my offer to your list. No money exchanges hands. It's a simple promotion. Next, you could use gift giveaways in your partnership. A giveaway is a collection of gifts contributed by a group of experts. Each expert emails their list a link to the giveaway for the free gifts. As people visit the giveaway page, the giveaway host grows her list by people opting in for the giveaway. Contributors grow their email lists by people opting in for their gift. Many times there is a fee to participate in a giveaway. It is nominal, but usually worth it to grow your email list. I love using summits as a way to create partnerships. This is like a series of webinars centered around a theme, but each expert doesn't sell anything. They simply offer free gifts to build their email lists. Live events can also be used in a partnership. This is similar to a summit. It's just live. You can appear on my stage in exchange for a fee or promoting the event.

These are 9 of the 24 summit session you'll enjoy at the Podcast Profits Summit. SHARE YOUR MESSAGE First, you podcast allows you to share your message and leave your impact on the world. Your listeners get to hear your voice, experience your passion, and get impacted by your expertise. You have a message to share. People need what you know. Your podcast makes that possible. Janelle Anderson will join us on the Podcast Profits Summit with "How to Ensure Your Message Isn't Just Heard, But Felt". This is how you make your impact on the world by sharing your message. Known as the Speaking Confidence Coach for coaches, Janelle is a Certified Professional Coach, author, and renowned speaker. Janelle is on a mission to empower coaches to launch on a strong foundation of clear messaging aimed at the audience most aligned with their passions and strengths, then grow their business through masterful speaking and storytelling. YOUR PASSION Next, your podcast allows you to build a business around something you love. As the old saying goes, "Do what you love and you'll never work another day in your life." Your podcast gives you the opportunity to build your business around that one thing you love. Jeanette Shorey taught music in schools for over 2 decades. She now hosts Stories That Sing. Her community is called the Happy Music Teacher. It is full of resources and community for elementary music teachers all promoted by her podcast. During the Podcast Profits Summit, Jeanette will talk about building a business around your passion. DISCOVERY Third, your podcast helps you get discovered. So many coaches come to me struggling to build their audience. How do I get more listeners, more downloads, more clients? When you build it right, your podcast can be a powerful tool to get you discovered. Search engine optimization is often mysterious to many people. It doesn't need to be that way. With a few of the right tools and strategies, you can show up in searches and get discovered using your podcast. On the Podcast Profit Summit, Daniel J. Lewis will join us with "Make Your Podcast Discoverable with Search Engine Optimization (SEO)". Daniel is the host of "The Audacity to Podcast". You'll definitely want to catch this session. Remember, going VIP on the summit will get you the recordings of every session of the summit along with other amazing resources. THE TOP OF YOUR FUNNEL Next, your podcast can sit at the top of your funnel. To grow your business, your client needs a path to follow. We call it the funnel. You offer free content to give people a taste of what you do. Get people to take action by allowing them to download a free resource in exchange for their name and email address. We call this the lead magnet. After nurturing the relationship through your email list, you make an offer to your audience and turn them into clients. Your podcast is the top of that funnel. This is where you give listeners that free content. Your podcast makes your funnel possible. Trent True will join us on the Podcast Profits Summit to discuss how to demystify your podcast funnel. ATTRACT IDEAL CLIENTS The fifth thing your podcast makes possible is attracting ideal clients. We talk about this a ton on Podcast Talent Coach. Your podcast makes powerful conversations possible every week. There are few things more powerful than being in the ear of a person having a one-on-one conversation sharing your stories. This is how people get to know, like and trust you. If you want to get more clients for your business, your podcast will make that possible. I am giving you that during the Podcast Profits Summit. It is called "5 Ways to Attract Your Ideal Clients with Your Podcast". BUILD RAPPORT TO MAKE SALES Next, your podcast makes more sales possible. There are many ways to make sales. Being authentic, building rapport, and getting others to help are three important pieces to that process. Collaboration is an amazing way to get in front of more potential clients and make sales. Jim Padilla is my coach and will bring "Leveraging the Power of Collaboration to Make Sales" to the Podcast Profits Summit. Jim is the founder and CEO of Gain the Edge and host of the "Opportunity Makers" podcast. This is definitely a conversation you'll want to revisit again and again. You can do that when you go VIP for the Podcast Profits Summit. All VIPs get recordings of all the sessions. You also get VIP gifts from the speakers, my guide to attracting clients, and my course "How To Crush Your Next Podcast Interview Like A Radio Pro". Get registered and go VIP at http://www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/summit. STAGES Things your podcast makes possible number 7 is speaking opportunities. Your podcast is like a demo reel. Not only can you attract stage owners, you can also show them what you do and how you do it. Being on stage is a great way to get in front of potential clients. There are a variety of stages. Get on stages and turn those audiences into clients. Kimberly Crowe is the host of Speakers Playhouse and Podapalooza. She brings us "How Coaches and Entrepreneurs Can Instantly Profit By Speaking on Four Types of Stages" during the Podcast Profits Summit. JV OPPORTUNITIES Next, your podcast makes joint venture opportunities possible. You now have a stage to share with other experts. The can interview you on their stages in return. You can also promote joint venture partners and make affiliate commissions. Marc Mawhinney runs the Coaching Jungle. It is a group of over 25,000 on Facebook. Marc also does joint venture in a unique way. He also hosts the podcast "Natural Born Coaches". He will share his process with us during "Creating Unique and Powerful Joint Ventures" on the Podcast Profits Summit. MULTIPLE STREAMS OF INCOME Finally, your podcast makes possible multiple streams of income. Your podcast sits at the center of your business. The podcast can feed multiple other revenue streams. It could be speaking, writing, coaching, courses, and a variety of other streams. You simply need to build it properly. Dan Miller is author of 48 Days to the Work You Love. He hosts the podcast of the same name and runs the 48 Days Eagles Community. Dan's podcast sits at the center of his revenue universe. He will show us how he does it during "Creating Multiple Streams of Income With Your Podcast". It's all part of the Podcast Profits Summit.

Join me as I speak with Marc Mawhinney about showing up unapologetically and being true to yourself and your opinions in your messaging. So many new coaches, especially those coming out of corporate environments, tone down their message and their voice because they don't want to ruffle any feathers. The result – they show up bland and boring and as just one more dull face in a sea of coaches.His approach to using his real opinions is simple, when he uses his real voice as part of the message he is intentionally polarizing and draws even more of right-fit clients into his world.

If they don't want to dump a bunch of money into Facebook ads, or whatever. 02:41 - The symptoms of the problem: Well, what I'm seeing is that they aren't obviously getting the clients that they want, or at least consistently, they might get a client here or there.

Referrals are such a powerful way to land clients. If you've read "The Prosperous Coach" by Rich Litvin and Steve Chandler or listened to the Referral Marketing Guru podcast with Michael Griffiths, you know what referrals can do for your business. Though referrals are powerful, they aren't the only way to leverage an endorsement for your business. There are many other ways to use the influence of others to attract your ideal clients. On this episode, I want to give you 9 different ways to benefit from the influence of others to fill your pipeline with your ideal prospects. IDEAL CLIENTS Before you can attract your ideal clients, you need to know who they are and where you can find them. Grab my Ideal Listener Development worksheet to get a clear idea of whom we are attracting. Download it at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/listener. Who is your ideal client? What do you love about working with them? Which influencers already have the attention of your ideal client? You can't hit a target you can't see. Complete the Listener Development Worksheet to get the answers to these questions and more. It will help you find your clients. GROWTH EQUATION There are two sides of the equation to grow your audience. You need to get new listeners. Then, you need to keep your current listeners coming back episode after episode. If you only focus on attracting new listeners, it is like putting water in a bucket with holes in the bottom. The bucket will never fill. It won't matter how much you add, because it is leaking out as fast as you add it. What are you doing to keep your listeners pushing play? KEEP THEM There are three things you can do to keep listeners coming back again and again. First, effectively tease the next episode at the end of each show. Don't simply promote the next episode. Create some anticipation. Make them want to come back for your amazing content. Think movie trailer. Get your listeners to say, "I gotta hear that." Next, email your list each time you release a new episode. Again, effectively tease the content by creating some intrigue. Saying, "We interview Bob Smith" isn't nearly enough to get people to listen. Open a loop that can only be closed by listening to the episode. Hint at something in the episode. "This week, Bob Smith tells us how he turned his hobby into a million-dollar business." Finally, post your new episode on social media each time you release. Let your followers know there is new content available. THE CHALLENGE When coaches come to me for help, they are typically struggling to grow the audience and monetize their show. I first ask, "How are you promoting the show?" The typical response is posting on social media and emailing the list. I definitely want you to keep doing that. But as we saw earlier, that is only half of the equation. How are you getting in front of people who aren't aware of you? Now that you've defined your ideal client, you know what influencers have your ideal client in their audiences. So, let's get in front of them. Here are 9 ways to get new listeners. REFERRALS Direct referrals are probably the most powerful. When someone you know recommends you to someone else, the weight that recommendation carries is immense. A guy in my mastermind just referred two people to me. When I talked with the first, he said he has heard great things about me and my knowledge. You can't buy advertising that powerful. The trust is built in. When a referral comes your way, you are already 2 steps down the sales path with your prospective client. Who can refer you? MASTERMIND The second way to get clients is through masterminds. This doesn't necessarily need to be your mastermind. You can speak to other masterminds. These groups are typically looking for speakers. My last client came from speaking to a mastermind. I am in a high-end group of movers and shakers. One of the women in that group runs a mastermind of speakers. She invited me to speak to the group. That particular gathering had 6 people present. One of those members became a high-end client for me. Masterminds are filled with people who understand the value of investing in resources that will help them. That's the magic of tapping into masterminds. SUMMITS The next resource you can tap into is summits. Summits are like online conferences. These online events are typically multi-day affairs. Most are between 3 and 5 days long with 6 or 8 speakers a day. Because there are so many speakers, the title of your presentation really needs to stand out in order to get people to show up for you. There may not be many people present for your talk. But, you don't need many to land a client. You can also benefit in the long run if the host is recording the presentations for VIP attendees. I'll speak at any summit. I love presenting, so it isn't a big deal. It is convenient and easy when it is online. Many summit hosts know I can be available at the last minute, so they will call me if a speaker backs out. Even if the summit topic isn't perfect for me, showing up at the last minute gets me in the good graces of the host and gives me practice with my presentation. Never turn down the opportunity to get on a mic. EVENTS The fourth way to get in front of new clients is appearing at events. There are a variety of event options. You can present at networking events. Conferences are always looking for great speakers. Companies and organizations will often hold events that need speakers. I have landed a few clients speaking at networking events. But more importantly, I've connected with influencers during these events who can put me in front of my ideal clients. Find events where your influencers congregate. GROUPS The next idea you can use is groups. This includes both groups you're in and other groups like civic organizations. One of my recent clients is a member of a training and coaching group I am in. The trainer asks us a lot of questions. So naturally, other members of the group learn what I do and how I operate. We practice making our offer in the group. Other members get to know me and understand the value I deliver my clients. In nearly every group I am in, somebody will say, "Erik, we need to talk. I need exactly what you have." Be proud of what you offer, and help others every chance you can. Don't sell. Offer help and guidance. The clients will come. PODCASTS The sixth idea is most effective to grow your audience. Get on other podcasts. I know it sounds obvious. Podcast listeners listen to podcasts. If you want to attract podcast listeners, go where they are. Sure, it sounds logical. But, are you doing it? Find podcasts that attract your ideal client. It doesn't necessarily need to be in your niche. If you're a weight loss podcast, find an exercise podcast. If you're a podcast about launching businesses, find an accounting podcast. Same audience, different topic. ASSOCIATIONS Next, find association meetings. Many professionals belong to associations. Speakers, doctors, broadcasters, unions. The association has money to hire you as a speaker. The members have money to hire you as a coach. If you work closely with a profession or specific niche, find an association around that niche. Offer to speak at their meeting. Maybe you can sponsor their fundraiser. Partner with them around their favorite charity. Promote their membership drive. There are many ways associations can put you in front of their members. NEWSLETTERS The eighth way to get in front of new clients is by appearing in newsletters. Every niche has newletters. Offer to write for the newsletter. Advertise in it. Be an expert and resource for their articles. I once wrote a regular article for the New Media Expo blog and newsleter. This is how Dave Jackson over at the School of Podcasting discovered me and we became friends. That was 10 years ago. Appearing in a newsletter will give you credibility by association. People see you in print and you automatically have authority. Where can you be a guest contributor? FACEBOOK GROUPS Finally, use Facebook lives. Reach out to the owners of the groups you're in. See if they will host you. Add value when you are in there. Don't just sell. Marc Mawhinney runs the Coaching Jungle Facebook group. There are around 25,000 people in that group. Marc will often host Facebook lives with his JV partners in his Facebook group. How would you like to be in front of 25,000 people in your niche? That's the power of Facebook lives in these groups. You need to be good. And, you need to offer a ton of value for the owner to be willing to put you in the group. ATTRACT CLIENTS Make the most of your appearance with any of these ideas. Many people are surprised when I tell them to offer a lead magnet to the audience rather than inviting them to listen to the podcast. If people come to your podcast and listen without subscribing, and they never come back, they are gone forever. You have no way to contact them again. When you offer a free resource to get people on your mailing list, you can invite them to listen to your podcast each time you release a new episode. You can email them for every episode until they unsubscribe. Once they are on your list, nurture your list and convert them clients. WORKSHOP Have you seen my latest workshop? It is coming up soon.

Selling coaching online is a double-edged sword. On one hand, you can find tens of thousands of your ideal clients in seconds thanks to social media. On the other hand, social media giants spend billions of dollars each year, devising ways to keep you addicted to their platforms. Which is a curse when you've got a business to run! But today's guest, Marc Mawhinney—owner of the Coaching Jungle Facebook group & host of the Natural Born Coaches podcast—has cracked the code of selling online without becoming addicted to social media. In this episode, you'll discover how to effortlessly get clients online — without wasting all your time and energy on social media. Listen now! Show highlights include: How to read 100 high-value books a year (while still having enough time for your business and family) (4:29) A powerful daily email strategy for turning a disengaged audience into a horde of email junkies (who practically beg for you to sell to them again) (8:26) The “Big 3” marketing pillars of a stable and highly profitable coaching business (10:48) Why enjoying a cold drink on a sunny afternoon helps you earn piles of money (even if you skip work) (13:03) How to guard yourself against social media addiction with the “drive by posting” method (14:15) If you found a golden nugget of wisdom in this episode, share it on social media with the hashtag #ResultsLeaderFM to help spread the word.

We are joined today by Coach and the Owner of Beyond Coaching, Genie Love, to talk all about her business and her journey of teaching and coaching adults with ADHD and Autism to manage their lives through her individualized programs. Genie Love has been trying to figure out how to stay focused and attentive, decrease procrastination, manage “to-do” lists, and get things done her entire adult life. She knows firsthand what it's like to be a disorganized mess and is excited about the current neurodiversity movement. Adults, both diagnosed and self-identified as having ADD, ADHD, and/or Autism, want to better understand themselves and learn how to manage their own lives. Through 20 years of teaching Special Education high school students, Genie developed strategies that translate well to coaching adults who struggle with Executive Functions (and other areas of their lives). Each of her clients receives an individualized approach to managing their specific Executive Function needs in order to meet their professional and personal goals. She loves learning about her client's passions and goals and working together to make productive changes in their lives. Genie Love holds an MS degree in Educational Leadership, a BS in Physical Therapy, and is licensed in Special Education. She has been a Special Education teacher for 20 years, working with students with ADD, ADHD, and Autism.

Co-Host Marc Mawhinney (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/marc) Not so long ago my guest Marc Mawhinney was handed such a massive setback that it made front page news in his city, unreasonably--and falsely--painting him as the bad guy. But nowadays, he has emerged from setback to be one of the foremost experts in his field. This episode is all about turning hateful adversity into a growth opportunity, and Marc is the right man for the job. First off, let's just throw it on the table...how can it be that super high-profile politicians and media pundits can absorb such an overwhelming amount of downright hate, and still wake up in the morning excited to share their opinions with the world? What sets them apart? Is that necessarily even a good thing? Next, discover why being the freakin' man in charge brings its own set of responsibilities. And even if you're not so much as a 'Z-list' public figure, you'll hear what happens when the media gets a hold of your story, and what to do about it. How do you 'get ahead' of negative public portrayal of you and/or your interests? Next, you'll hear what to do if groupthink mentality kicks in and you're really getting hammered. How do you turn bad press lemons into lemonade...or would that be 'haterade'? When should you actually stop and pay attention to those who criticize you? And when should you absolutely not let it affect you in the least? There's a clear difference, and you'll find out what it is. Is the way to win over women who are angry at men to agree with them? I think you know the answer...but what SHOULD you do instead? If you have NOBODY in your life who's a 'hater', what hidden meaning might that have? Should you apologize publicly when you piss people off? What life lesson is a true 'silver lining' when dealing with social adversity? And could it actually be true that you could USE a good, solid dose of adversity on the path to being a better man?

You get a thick skin.” “What I like to do is to use their hate and turn it into sales, so I use it as content fodder.” “I haven't been getting as many of them as I probably should and part of it is because I've changed the way I use social media.” “Once you start creating a lot of content, it gets easier. You're building up your content creation muscles.”
