Podcasts about messaging

What if the most overlooked group in your workplace holds the key to retention, loyalty, and a truly people-first culture? Nikki is joined by Paul Sullivan, former New York Times columnist and founder of The Company of Dads. Paul shares the deeply personal story behind his mission to elevate and support "lead dads," the primary caregivers often overlooked in corporate benefit structures. From the eye-opening stats on caregiving to stories of companies getting it painfully wrong, Paul challenges leaders to rethink how they message and activate the benefits they already offer. This conversation is a wake-up call and a roadmap for anyone serious about creating workplaces that work for families. If your culture says "family first," does your messaging and manager training back it up?   Additional Resources: Connect with Paul on LinkedIn Learn more about The Company of Dads Watch Gut + Science (and more) on YouTube!

H1-S1-Tom Homan did a news conf in MN and we just lost the messaging battle .

This one felt like catching up with an old friend you've never actually met in person.Kyle Trevor has been part of the Cannabis School orbit for a long time. Messaging us, asking questions, listening to episodes on repeat, and genuinely getting what this show is about. So having him on The Sesh felt less like an interview and more like finally pulling up a chair together.We talk about music, creativity, and what it looks like to grow alongside your art instead of trying to force it into something it's not. Kyle opens up about his relationship with cannabis, how it shifted over time, and how intention and dosing completely change the experience. Not chasing being “stoned,” just wanting to feel present, connected, and okay in his own head.There's a real conversation here about trauma, forced introspection, and how cannabis can sometimes bring things to the surface before you're ready. We don't dress it up. We talk about backing off when you need to, respecting the plant, and listening to your body instead of muscling through an experience because you think you're supposed to.We also get into the weirdness of wearing your identity out in public, merch, art, judgment, Utah culture, and those moments where strangers either glare at you or light up because they feel seen. That tension between expression and perception shows up everywhere, especially when you're making something honest.By the end, this episode lands in a really grounded place. Cannabis as a tool, not a crutch. Creativity as a long game. Growth as something that rarely looks clean while you're inside of it.If you've ever felt like cannabis helped you reconnect, then challenged you, then asked you to slow down and reassess, this one will hit home.Go check out Kyle's music, follow his journey, and sit with this conversation for a bit.

Today's episode dives into major policy and legal developments shaking the nation: 1️⃣ Gender-Affirming Surgeries: The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recommends delaying surgeries for minors until age 19, citing evidence that many children's gender dysphoria resolves naturally. This comes after a $2M malpractice lawsuit in New York, raising questions about consent and ethics. 2️⃣ ICE Drawdown in Minneapolis: 700 ICE agents are being pulled out amid violent anti-ICE protests and illegal roadblocks. Messaging failures from the White House have left conservatives frustrated, while Democrats exploit public confusion. 3️⃣ Immigration Polling & Enforcement: Public support for deporting illegal immigrants remains strong (61–73%), yet political missteps threaten enforcement and electoral strategy. The fallout demonstrates how messaging and leadership decisions directly impact public perception and policy.

You know what's so stinking wild? You're out here with experience, client results, and case studies that would make other people jealous, and you're still attracting clients who need handholding, who question your price, and who ghost you after discovery calls.I hate to break it to you, but it's not them. It's your messaging.You're speaking to beginner-level problems when there's a whole world of champagne problems out there waiting for someone like you to solve them. And today, we're gonna fix it.If you're a service provider (VA, OBM, ads manager, copywriter, funnel builder) who's tired of attracting clients with beginner budgets and beginner problems, this is for you. I'm gonna show you exactly how to shift your messaging to attract premium clients who respect your expertise, make decisions quickly, and pay well.Beginner Problems vs. Champagne Problems: The distinction between survival-stage clients (uncertain, low budget, testing) and success-stage clients (established, scaling, delegating). Champagne problems are problems of growth, not getting started.Why Your Messaging Attracts the Wrong Clients: Service providers default to beginner messaging because it feels safer, more familiar, and less vulnerable—often driven by imposter syndrome or playing small.How Messaging Signals Client Level (and Budget): Language that focuses on “getting started,” affordability, or learning attracts beginners, while messaging that assumes success attracts premium clients who value expertise and delegation.The Tactical Messaging Shift to Attract Premium Clients: Auditing current messaging, reframing problems to assume success, and using language centered on delegation, ownership, scaling, and premium solutions.What Changes When You Speak to Champagne Clients: Higher-quality inquiries, shorter sales cycles, easier pricing conversations, faster decisions, and doing higher-level work instead of beginner hand-holding.Find the full post at:  https://brandimowles.com/272Want More Like This? ⬇️

You might think posting daily, chasing trends, and being "everywhere" is the key to growing your personal brand. But what if the real problem isn't visibility, it's clarity? Most people trying to build a brand skip the hardest part: figuring out exactly what they stand for and how to communicate it consistently. Without that foundation, every post feels like a shot in the dark. And if your message is muddy, even the best content won't convert. So how do you build a brand that actually resonates, builds trust, and drives results?   In this episode, Donald Miller sits down with "Podcast Princess" Hala Taha, host of Young and Profiting (YAP) Podcast, to unpack the messaging strategies that built her powerhouse personal brand. They dive into her step-by-step framework for personal brand clarity, how to create sticky content themes, and why it pays to stand against something just as much as you stand for something. You'll also hear how Hala used these strategies to grow a thriving business, land sponsorships, and inspire the next generation of creators.

[THE DISTINCTIVE EDGE CLIENT CASE STUDY] In this episode, Meg sits down with Leah Bryant, Podcast Growth Strategist and Coach, to talk about how clarifying her messaging—and fully owning her distinctive edge—helped her book multiple podcast audits and full podcast launches in a matter of weeks. Leah shares the honest reality of being five years into business, having already experienced success, and still realizing something was missing. After transitioning from an agency model to a solo business, Leah knew she was good at what she did—but wasn't clearly articulating why she was different in a saturated market. Inside this conversation, Leah breaks down how leaning into her background as a former fraud investigator (yes, really) changed everything—from her confidence to her conversions. If you've ever thought, "I know I'm good at what I do, but my message isn't landing," this episode is for you. In this episode, we cover: Why Leah almost didn't invest—and what helped her make a grounded, confident yes How podcast SEO can turn a show into an actual revenue-generating asset The mistake most podcasters make when trying to grow (and why tips alone don't convert anymore) How Leah transitioned from an agency voice to owning her voice as the brand Why owning your background and pattern-recognition skills builds instant trust What shifted when Leah stopped "sounding like everyone else" and showed more personality How clarity in messaging led to booked audits, paid launches, and inbound clients Why confidence—not just strategy—is the real multiplier in sales Quotes you'll hear echoed: "I knew I was good at what I did—I just wasn't owning it." "I was burned before, and I didn't want another program collecting dust." "Once I started being myself, everything shifted."

Recorded live at Cloud Connections, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, spoke with Sabeeh Hameed, Founder of Sabrhub and a newly announced member of the Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA). The conversation focused on how service providers can offset declining voice revenues by accelerating business messaging adoption—while navigating the growing complexity of 10DLC registration. Hameed explained that Sabrhub was built to address a fundamental shift in the market. As industry reports continue to show declining voice revenues and tightening margins, messaging has emerged as a critical growth opportunity for CSPs and service providers—especially when messaging is enabled on existing voice numbers. However, the introduction of mandatory 10DLC registration has transformed what was once a simple service into a major operational bottleneck. Rather than viewing 10DLC as a barrier, Sabrhub treats it as an opportunity. Hameed noted that many service providers experience campaign rejection rates as high as 70–90 percent, often due to incomplete or improperly structured submissions. Each rejection adds weeks of delay, additional fees, and customer frustration. Sabrhub's platform uses AI to pre-vet campaigns before submission, dramatically increasing approval confidence and reducing onboarding time. According to Hameed, Sabrhub has reduced the brand registration process from hours—or even weeks—down to approximately 15 minutes, with approvals often completed within 24 hours and a reported 99 percent success rate. The platform abstracts away the complexity of use cases, opt-in requirements, privacy policies, and legal disclosures, presenting the process in a customer-friendly format that improves both speed and experience. While AI powers the platform, Hameed emphasized that Sabrhub is not “selling AI” as a product. Instead, AI operates behind the scenes to eliminate friction, guide brands through compliance requirements, and enable service providers to bring messaging services to market faster and more reliably. For MSPs, channel partners, and voice service providers attending Cloud Connections, Hameed positioned messaging compliance as a direct revenue opportunity. By simplifying 10DLC registration and accelerating time to service, partners can increase ARPU, reduce churn, and offer differentiated messaging solutions without taking on regulatory complexity themselves. More information about Sabrhub and its AI-driven 10DLC solutions is available at https://www.sabrhub.com/.

After the public execution of Alex Pretti, the administration is blaming the optics, the tactics, the messaging, Bovino's head just rolled, now they may have Noem's head roll as well, but none of that is to blame for what's happening on the streets of America. Donald Trump is to blame. He unleashed this lawless, un-American cruelty. He and his party must pay the price. Their heads must roll. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As the furor over this weekend's deadly shooting in Minnesota continues to unfold, President Donald Trump appears to be shifting his approach.

Playbook's Jack Blanchard and White House Bureau Chief Dasha Burns discuss what the shift means for the White House and the situation on the ground. Plus, Trump is headed to Iowa to kick off a midterm-year tour across America.

It's a jam-packed episode as Tara returns after the storm to unpack what really happened on the roads, why forecasts missed so badly, and what colder winters mean going forward

Tara delivers a blunt, unfiltered breakdown of what she calls a catastrophic messaging failure — and why it mattered. She argues that coordinated activist networks outperformed a scattered response, while leadership attention drifted elsewhere

  Do you feel like the job search is more competitive than ever - even for roles you know you're qualified for? A lot is changing, from a flood of tech-enabled applications to today's topic, AI tools that are layered into applicant tracking systems. These tools are helping more candidates to be considered, but how can you make sure you are sharing your experience in a way that makes it easy to see the connection, even when more candidates are in the room? We'll talk about why clarity, relevance, and consistency matter more than just keywords. Understanding how candidates are scored, ranked, and resurfaced helps you stop competing blindly and start positioning yourself more intentionally.   You'll learn: ✔ What hiring systems look for beyond keywords and job titles ✔ Why clarity and consistency now outweigh broad experience ✔ The three most important actions to take to stay competitive going forward ✔ Why past applicants and former employees can now be resurfaced more easily   ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Confirm uses organizational network analysis to surface hidden high performers and toxic actors that traditional performance reviews miss - identifying the quiet contributors everyone relies on and the problematic employees who manage up effectively. In this episode of BUILDERS, I sat down with David Murray, Cofounder & CEO of Confirm, to dissect their most painful go-to-market lessons. David shares why leading with methodology superiority torpedoed their early sales, the specific discovery framework that flipped their win rate, and how they segment the four distinct HR buying motions that require completely different sales approaches. Topics Discussed: Why traditional performance reviews are 60% manager bias according to research by Maynard Goff How organizational network analysis identifies introverted high performers and manages-up toxic actors The catastrophic early GTM mistake: positioning against existing processes Discovery frameworks for conservative buyers in compliance-heavy functions Talk ratio targets and silence techniques from clinical psychology applied to enterprise sales Channel testing methodology that identified LinkedIn ads as their primary acquisition driver The four-quadrant framework for HR sales: CHRO vs line manager, company-wide vs HR-only tools Messaging strategies that balance shock factor with substantive education GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Discovery trumps differentiation in category creation: Confirm's design partner had promoted toxic employees and lost quiet high performers in the same cycle—a perfect case study for their ONA methodology. But when they pitched other HR leaders with "here's why your approach is broken," they hit walls. The shift: stop selling methodology, start diagnosing pain. Reference what you've observed at similar companies—"Some folks at your size tell us they struggle with X, is that true for you?"—then let prospects surface their version of the problem. Only after they've articulated their pain do you map your differentiated approach to their specific context. Target buyer timing, not just buyer titles: Confirm identified a specific trigger: HR leaders in their first 1-2 months at a new company. These leaders are hired to make change and need early wins. The outreach question: "How are you looking to make your mark?" This surfaces whether they're hungry for innovation or managing political capital. A newly hired CHRO has different motivations than a 5-year veteran protecting their process choices. Map your outreach to career timing, not just seniority. Enforce 50/30/20 talk ratios in discovery: David's target: prospects speak 60-80% of discovery calls, with 50% being acceptable. If you're talking more than half the time, you're pitching, not discovering. The clinical psychology technique: positive encouragers ("yeah," "huh") plus deliberate silence after open-ended questions. Prospects will fill silence with the real issues—budget constraints, political dynamics, past vendor failures. This intel is gold for multi-threading and objection handling later. Test channel-message fit with minimal spend: Confirm's approach: "do everything a little bit and see what sticks." They found LinkedIn ads with precise targeting (title, company size, recent job changes) delivered qualified pipeline cost-effectively, while other channels didn't. The framework: allocate 10-15% of budget across 5-6 channels for 60 days, measure cost-per-qualified-meeting, then concentrate spend. Plan for 3-6 month creative refresh cycles as audiences develop ad fatigue—this isn't set-and-forget. Map your product to the HR buying matrix: David identifies four distinct quadrants: (1) CHRO buyer, company-wide deployment = traditional enterprise sale, 6-18 month cycles, heavy multi-threading required; (2) CHRO buyer, HR-only tool = shorter cycles but still executive selling; (3) Line manager buyer, company-wide = requires bottom-up adoption mechanics; (4) Line manager buyer, HR-only = SMB-style transactional sale. Confirm operates in quadrant 1—the longest, most complex sale. Most founders don't explicitly map which quadrant they're in, leading to mismatched sales motions and blown forecasts. Use provocative messaging with technical substance: "One-click performance reviews" generated meetings because it triggered both excitement (managers hate writing reviews) and concern (is AI replacing human judgment?). The key: the shock factor gets the meeting, but you need depth on the call. Confirm's explanation: the AI aggregates data from Asana, Jira, OKRs, peer feedback, and self-reflections to reduce recency bias, then generates a draft managers edit. The dystopian concern becomes a feature when you explain the data anchoring. Surface-level shock without technical credibility burns trust. Adjust for organizational risk tolerance by function: HR and healthcare share conservative buying cultures due to compliance, documentation, and legal requirements. David contrasts this with selling to CTOs or engineers who "kick tires and want to break things." This affects everything: longer evaluation cycles, more stakeholders in legal/compliance, emphasis on security and data handling, reference checks weighted heavily. If you're selling to risk-averse functions, adjust your content (white papers, compliance documentation), your timeline expectations, and your change management positioning. Reframe education as extraction, not instruction: David's mental model shift: "I need to learn from them" replaced "I need to educate them." In practice: "I've heard from others that calibration meetings consume 10+ hours per cycle with unclear outcomes. They tried approaches like forced ranking or manager-only decisions. Have you experimented with either?" This positions you as a pattern-matcher across their peer group, not a lecturer. They become receptive to alternatives because you've demonstrated you understand their world through other customers' experiences. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

In hour 1 of The Mark Reardon Show, Mark is joined by Josh Hammer, a Newsweek Senior Editor at Large and the Host of the Josh Hammer Show. Hammer reacts to the latest shooting of a protestor in Minneapolis as well as the supremacy of federal law over state and local laws. Mark is later joined by Tim Fitch, a Former St Louis County Police Chief and Former St Louis County Councilman. He shares his reaction to the latest fatal shooting of a protestor in Minneapolis by an ICE agent. Is it justified?

Something I do constantly in my business and with my clients is auditing messaging to figure out what's actually working and what needs to change.Because messaging is something you're always working on, evolving and refining (well you should be). Now when people are trying to figure out if their messaging is working and doing its job – they often approach it the wrong way.They look at vanity metrics, they panic when something doesn't work immediately, or they're constantly pivoting because they're bored.And you might be thinking “woah, that's me Tahryn…”But never fear because in today's episode of the How I Do Content Podcast I'm walking you through my messaging audit process – the same one I use with my private clients and the framework I built for my Micro Messaging students called The Messaging Spell Checker.Let's get into it. WANT MORE?Watch my 13 minute One Offer, 5 Angles at https://thesocialbolt.com.au/mini-training/ Join the Micro Messaging Waitlist at https://thesocialbolt.com.au/messaging-waitlist/ Follow Tahryn on Instagram at http://www.instagram.com/thesocialbolt Find out more at https://www.thesocialbolt.com.au TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODEmessaging audit process, how to audit messaging, messaging audit framework, how to analyse messaging performance, messaging not converting, why my content isn't getting engagement, messaging strategy for coaches, messaging strategy for service providers, ideal client messaging research, content engagement but no sales, offer positioning strategy, messaging vs marketing metrics, diagnosing messaging problems, desire demand differentiation framework, messaging foundation audit, why my offer feels like a nice to have, how to position an offer as essential, differentiation in online business, sounding generic in marketing, how to stand out in crowded market, messaging for online business owners, messaging evolution strategy, messaging optimisation process, analysing what's working in content, messaging system for business growthBackground Music is Copyright Free.

A winter storm may be easing, but the temperature rises fast once we dig into power, policy, and how leaders talk when the stakes are high. We start with Sam Bregman's headline‑grabbing vow to prosecute ICE agents and break down what the law actually requires—probable cause, federal authority, and why loose talking points can blur the line between protest and peril. Then we move to Minneapolis, where a fatal confrontation and dueling statements from public figures reveal the cost of incendiary messaging. We compare tones, highlight a notable pivot toward de‑escalation, and make the case for leadership that lowers the heat while enforcement continues.From there, we confront New Mexico's Senate Bill 18, a net zero proposal with massive fiscal consequences. Our budget leans on oil and gas; stripping reliable energy before building firm replacements invites price spikes, service instability, and cuts to education and healthcare. Europe's missteps offer a cautionary map: heavy spending, lower output, and higher rates. If demand surges with data centers and AI, the only responsible path is to add dependable capacity first—think nuclear and realistic baseload—before forcing a rapid drawdown that punishes working families.We also examine how SNAP's error rate climbed as approvals sped up, and why new federal rules could shift costs back onto New Mexico taxpayers. Integrity and speed can coexist with smarter verification, better data tools, and the right incentives. On healthcare, we cut through the fog around physician counts to focus on what patients feel every day: long waits, fewer specialists, and rising malpractice pressure. Reform must balance patient rights with stability that keeps doctors in state and in practice.And yes, we finish with the most dangerous “animals” in America—and you'll be surprised. Hint: it isn't the predator in your trail-cam dreams. Press play for a frank, results‑oriented conversation about law, safety, energy, benefits, and access to care.

In Episode 141 of SITREP, hosts CannCon and Alpha Warrior break down the latest developments shaping the strategic and geopolitical landscape. The discussion focuses on military posture, escalation signals, and how messaging from leadership, institutions, and adversaries reflects deeper movement beneath the surface. CannCon and Alpha examine patterns in timing, coordination, and response, highlighting how actions on the world stage often communicate more than official statements alone. The episode also explores the balance between deterrence and provocation, the role of perception in modern conflict, and the risks that emerge when red lines are tested or ignored. Throughout the conversation, the hosts emphasize situational awareness, historical context, and the importance of reading between the lines as events continue to unfold. This episode offers a grounded assessment of where things stand, what signals matter most, and why the current moment demands close attention.

Most podcasters are convinced their show is “clear enough,” that listeners will eventually find them, and that growth is just a matter of time and consistency. Anthony thought the same, until he realized his “clear enough” message was actually confusing people and the listeners he wanted were scrolling straight past his show.So he rebuilt his show from the inside out, transformed it into something listeners actually wanted to click on, and earned an Apple Top 100 spot during his relaunch. And in this episode, you'll find out the blind spots that were costing him listeners every week (and how to fix them fast) so your show becomes the obvious choice over the competition. So if you're done feeling like the “best-kept secret” and want your podcast to actually get found and followed, hit play and let's dive in.Episode Links:Meet Anthony: ParentsMakingTime.com | LinkedInListen to Anthony's Podcast | Parents Making TimeCheck out this mind-blowing BEFORE & AFTER!

In this special coaching episode of Passionate & Prosperous, I coach Michael Barnes, a certified health and life coach in the early stages of building his coaching business.Michael came into the session wanting clarity around three things:where to focus his limited time and energy while working a full-time job, how to talk about his work without sounding “coachy,” and what it really looks like to embody being a coach — not turn it on and off depending on the room.What unfolded was a layered, honest coaching conversation where we got to the heart of what Michael actually does, who he's uniquely positioned to help, and why his lived experience gives him what I call an unfair advantage — even if he hasn't fully been using it yet.You'll hear Michael have real-time breakthroughs around his messaging, his ideal client, and why people are already drawn to him — not because of his certifications, but because of who he is, how he lives, and the life he's actively creating.We also talk about why clients don't hire coaches because of polished language or perfect positioning — they hire us because they see us being, doing, or having something they want for themselves. And why sharing your story, your evolution, and your perspective isn't optional if you want your work to land.In this episode, we cover:Why it's important to know what outcomes and results your clients are really looking for (and not just what you think they want)How to stop hiding behind “coach language” and start speaking in a way that calls in your ideal clientsHow to leverage your unfair advantage — and why it's a key to knowing your nicheWhat it really means to embody your work instead of trying to switch it on for marketingWhy people are drawn to coaches who are visibly living what they teachHow specificity (not being vague or universal) makes your message more powerfulMaking intentional choices about visibility and connection when you don't have unlimited timeThis episode is a powerful reminder that business growth isn't driven by finding the perfect script, niche sentence, or marketing formula. They're built by developing your skills, taking action before you feel “ready,” and letting your lived experience lead the way.
