When I started teaching this four years ago, I'd ask people, "Is your messaging off?" and get blank stares. Nobody knew what messaging even was. They just knew their content wasn't working. So I changed one thing. I started saying: "Is your content filled with great information, but you're not seeing the sales or engagement? There's a reason." Same solution. Completely different response. Because that version met people where they actually were. That's a bridge. The connection that carries someone from their unwanted experience to wanting what you sell. And most entrepreneurs skip it entirely, then wonder why great copy converts like cold oatmeal. Today on the podcast, I'm walking you through how to build one, straight from our NGM Live event stage. Listen in and discover: What "awareness level" really means and why ignoring it kills your ads The exact 5-step bridge you can drop into emails, ads, webinars, and content Why naming the mistake before the solution is what creates the "oh my God, that's me" moment The TED talk vs. encyclopedia distinction that reframes your entire approach Why I never teach anything until the gap is bridged and neither should you If your cost per lead is climbing or your launches are landing softer than they used to, this is the fix. Listen in now, and stick around; parts two and three are live bridge builds you can steal from. Did you enjoy this episode? I'd love it if you'd share it on Instagram and tag me @iambrandonlucero!

A lot of brands are saying the wrong thing first. They lead with their mission, their story, and their personality, thinking that will make people care. But customers aren't looking for a brand to admire. They're looking for a guide who understands their problem and can help them solve it. When your message starts in the wrong place, your customer tunes out before you ever get a chance to help. How do you know if your brand is leading with the wrong story? In this episode, host Donald Miller breaks down the difference between primary and secondary messaging and explains why that shift changes everything. He shows how to talk about your customer's problem, communicate why you care, prove you can help, and make the next step clear. Don also shares simple website tests to help customers quickly understand what you offer and why it matters. Tune in to create messaging that drives more sales.

Today's Stage Thought explores why clarity is often more powerful than persuasion. Using a simple restaurant sign analogy, we unpack how the clearest message—not necessarily the one with the most credentials or the longest list of services—is the one people remember. If your audience can't quickly understand who you help, what problem you solve, and why you're different, even the strongest presentation won't create the opportunities you're hoping for. You'll also discover why your talk doesn't fix an unclear message—it amplifies it. This episode challenges you to think about how others would describe your business after meeting you and offers a practical way to refine your positioning so your ideas become memorable, shareable, and referral-worthy.

Tom Fox and co-host Ronnie Feldman interview Lauren Thal, VP of Compliance at mid-size pharma company Tolmar, about building an in-house compliance program after external partners previously ran it. Lauren describes her background in healthcare compliance and earlier consulting at Ernst & Young and Navigant and explains why Tolmar's legal/compliance team used improv training at a retreat to strengthen soft skills, bonding, and collaboration in a remote, cross-location environment. They discuss how exercises like “Red Ball” and role-playing highlight communication styles, active listening, adaptability, and managing competing priorities, helping compliance partner with the business without appearing “finger-waggy” or like the “police.” Lauren also explains her training/communications strategy using short, playful compliance videos on topics such as Speak Up and Code of Conduct to disarm fear, increase attention and recall, and encourage engagement, offering practical ideas for deployment and emphasizing that humor reinforces rather than undermines compliance messages.

Executive editor Jack O'Brien first met Wendy Lund, an honoree from our Pinnacle Awards and Women of Distinction program, in September of 2022. Lund had just left her position as CEO of Agency 100 honoree GCI Health to serve as chief client officer for health and wellness at WPP. Now in her new post as CEO of Stagwell-owned agency Allison, Lund joins this week's podcast for an in-person interview with reporter Bella Czajkowski. Lund dives into a recent HarrisX–Allison Worldwide study on how GLP-1s are reshaping attitudes toward weight loss and care. The report was released late last month and chief among its numerous findings was the observation that GLP-1s have moved firmly into the mainstream, though the public conversation around them remains split between medical breakthrough and moral judgment. As Wendy told Bella, “culture is shaping health, but health is also shaping culture.” And for our Trends segment, O'Brien and Czajkowski are joined by editor-at-large Steve Madden for a conversation on all that went down during the FDA's recent two-day advisory panel focused on peptides.

Most sellers burn great accounts by spamming the exact same pitch 14 times. In this episode, Nick Cegelski and Armand Farrokh break down their exact playbook, including:
I'll be honest I didn't want to talk about AI this year. I thought it would steal the human magic from messaging. But after testing it, I've seen its power…and its pitfalls. Back when I started, writing killer copy meant years of mastery. Now, everyone jumps into ChatGPT, types "write my Facebook ad," and wonders why their content flops. They skip the learning curve and miss the deeper connection. Today on the podcast, I'm unpacking exactly how AI should fit into your messaging process—and why you still need the human element. Listen in and discover: - Why AI alone can't replace your craftsmanship (and where it shines) - The two simple prompts that turn generic ChatGPT output into tailored, powerful copy - How our custom bot nails thought reversals and webinar titles 80–90% accurate vs. 50% from vanilla AI - The golden combo: your expertise + AI speed = faster, deeper results - How to grab my free mini-training to perfect thought reversals in ChatGPT Ready to make AI work for you, not against you?

Send us Fan MailAaron, Trent, and Peaches are back in the team room talking defense budgets, military waste, the NDAA, future war with China, Space Force, Flock cameras, and why everyone suddenly has feelings about height-to-waist standards.The team breaks down why the Department of War is asking for more money, what the military says it needs to fund, and why that answer still does not solve the bigger problem: nobody can explain where all the money is already going. They talk munitions, drones, shipbuilding, Golden Dome, personnel, aging infrastructure, bloated conferences, pet projects, federal billets, and the fact that the military still cannot pass a clean audit.Then the episode shifts into surveillance and civil liberties with Flock cameras, license plate readers, the Patriot Act, and why “if you did nothing wrong, you have nothing to worry about” is a terrible argument.Finally, the guys get into Air Force height-to-waist standards, body composition, fat bodies in uniform, false positives for built-like-a-fridge humans, and why most people complaining about the standard probably just need to work out and eat less.Check out Tasty Gains: TastyGains.comGet AFSPECWAR prep gear through ATACLETE: OnesReady.comRegister for Operator Training Summit: OperatorTrainingSummit.comChapters:00:00 - Intro, Tasty Gains, ATACLETE, and OTS02:34 - San Diego and Pennsylvania OTS Updates04:20 - Why Does the Military Want More Money?04:58 - What the Defense Budget Is Paying For06:00 - Warfighter Performance, Drones, and China07:13 - Navy Upgrades and Global Shipping07:45 - Where Has the Money Been Going?08:14 - DOGE Cuts, Federal Workers, and Billets11:22 - Why Cutting Billets Does Not Always Cut Costs12:28 - A-10, B-21, F-47, and Military Construction14:04 - The $1.5 Trillion Defense Budget Request15:20 - China, Taiwan, and Future War Prep16:17 - Trent's Problem With the Budget Argument17:56 - The Department of War Has Never Passed a Clean Audit18:38 - Space Force Funding and Real Missions20:24 - NDAA, SAVE Act, and Israel Integration22:46 - Voter ID, Senate Drama, and Political Games24:10 - Why the NDAA May Get Stripped Down25:33 - Midterms, Messaging, and DC Theater26:49 - Talking Politics With Kids27:14 - Aliens, Spielberg, and Disclosure28:38 - Why Military Leaders Do Not Cut Waste29:02 - Civilian Leadership and Budget Authority29:55 - How End-of-Year Spending Works31:55 - The GARV Vehicle and Sunk Cost Fallacy34:37 - Unused Float Tanks and Base-Level Waste36:08 - VR Headsets and Gear With No Sustainment Plan37:10 - When Waste Becomes Gear Money38:25 - Donated Mattresses and Internet Outrage39:30 - Cutting Generals, E-9s, and Conferences40:27 - Senior Leader Conferences and Yucking It Up41:50 - Commanders' Roundtables and No Decisions43:34 - Senior Leaders Need to Take More Risk45:05 - Aaron's Defense Budget Take46:13 - A Possible New Ones Ready Series47:57 - Naming the New Series50:34 - What the New Series Could Cover53:09 - Flock Cameras and AI Surveillance54:31 - License Plate Readers and False Tickets56:50 - Aaron's Las Vegas Parking Ticket Story01:00:24 - The Process Is the Punishment01:01:42 - UK CCTV and 198401:03:15 - The Patriot Act and Giving Up Freedom01:04:46 - Height-to-Waist Standard Chaos01:05:59 - Fat People Resist Accountability01:06:26 - Show the Scores01:07:07 - The One Built-Like-a-Viking Exception01:08:13 - Almost Crashing a Helicopter With Big Humans01:09:56 - When Pencil Whipping Makes Sense01:11:01 - Trent's Fatty Rant01:11:40 - MTIs, Maintainers, and No Excuses01:12:31 - Final Thoughts and MembershipSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page: HERERegister for our Operator Training Summit: OperatorTrainingSummit.comFind an Air Force Recruiter: AirForce.comCollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code: ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code): ATACLeteDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code: ONESREADYDFND Apparel...
98% of business owners tell me they want to make more sales…But when I actually look at their messaging (and the by-product of this, their marketing) – it's not optimised to help them make more sales or stand out in the current landscape filled with AI slop.And when you feel like you're doing all the things you should be doing (showing up, talking about your offer, promoting it consistently) – it can feel frustrating when you're not seeing that effort rewarded in your cash flow. But that's also the problem – you're focusing on the wrong things.More content doesn't mean more sales and more leads doesn't mean more sales…Because ultimately what leads to more sales is messaging that moves your ideal client from first discovering you to deciding to buy from you. So content creation and lead generation without good messaging is a big fat waste of time. You'll forever find yourself doing all the “right things” but never seeing it flow through to your bank account. So how can you fix this? Well I'm glad you asked! In today's episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, I'm sharing 10 messaging tweaks to help you make more sales. What can I say?!

Throughout the four-hour broadcast of The Charlie James Show on Monday, July 27, 2026, host Charlie James examines pressing local, state, and national issues with 99 days remaining until the midterm elections. A primary focus of the program is the South Carolina U.S. Senate race, featuring commentary on primary candidate filings, SC GOP candidate qualification rules, and critical analysis of interim Senator Darlene Graham's strategy and credentials. On the local level, James addresses regional law enforcement concerns, including the misuse of Flock license-plate cameras, AI-driven parking enforcement, and retaliatory crime in Asheville. Broadening the scope, he tackles national and global affairs by discussing U.S. military B-1B bomber strikes on Iran, Dr. Anthony Fauci's pandemic diary entries, international terror incidents in Berlin and New York, allegations of globalist influence within intelligence agencies, the financial state of the DNC, and the fundamental differences between social safety nets and state socialism.
In Hour 3 of The Charlie James Show, host Charlie James opens by analyzing Dr. Anthony Fauci's pandemic diary entries, alleging personal self-obsession and the misrepresentation of COVID-19 mortality statistics. The discussion then expands to geopolitical and domestic threats, featuring a caller's breakdown of the "Red-Green Axis," allegations of globalist bias within the CIA, and concerns over local license-plate surveillance. James proceeds to address a terror attack at a Berlin Pride Parade, warning against radical Islam while voicing strong disappointment with Minnesota gubernatorial candidate Mike Lindell over his immigration stance. He concludes the hour by evaluating the competing campaign narratives of the Republican and Democratic parties with only 99 days remaining until the midterm elections.

Data centers are showing up in rural counties across the country, and not everyone is happy about it. Isaac Wright, a strategist who's spent two decades working rural campaigns, joins Heidi and Joel to talk about why that is, what tariffs have cost farmers selling to Brazil and China, and why he sees real opportunity for Democrats in Iowa and Ohio in the midterms.Isaac explains why rural voters respond to authenticity and local trust over national talking points, and what Rob Sand's win in Iowa says about how to build that trust. He also gets into AI regulation, and what it would look like for policy to actually reflect the values Democrats say they hold.In this episode:Why Iowa and Ohio look like real opportunities this cycleData centers: local jobs versus strain on water and powerWhat tariffs on Brazil and China have cost farmersBuilding trust and likability in rural racesWhat it actually means to "localize" a campaignConnect with Isaac Wright:LinkedInIsaac makes a clear case for what it takes to win back rural voters, one county at a time.The Hot Dish is brought to you by the One Country Project.

There is a huge messaging problem that happens all the time with Nonprofit leaders that is virtually invisible to us, and yet can be incredibly costly. And I don't want that to be happening to you. But the truth is, it probably is, at least with some of your decisionmakers. Here's how you know that it's happening. If you have any decisionmakers who still aren't getting it about what you really do and the impact of it and its value, there is most definitely a hole in your messaging. When they're not getting it, the very first place to look is your messaging around the problem you solve. And here's why. The truth is decisionmakers will not care one bit about your solution if they don't first care about the problem that you solve. Part of the problem is we tend to think that the problem is obvious, that everybody already gets that. And so we jump right to the solution. We start right in with, "Here's what we do. Here's who we help. Blah, blah, blah." But the fact is, most decisionmakers do not go around thinking every day about the problem that you solve, and it's very unlikely they understand the level of impact of the problem in the way that you do. They're not going to be listening to how great your solution is if they don't first think that the problem is important, serious, and urgent to solve. If they don't think those things, then all your cool information about how you solve it and the wonderful results that it produces, just slides off them. Because in their head, they're like, "Yeah, but it's not that big a problem, so whatever." And more to the point, if they don't think the problem you solve is important, serious and urgent, why would they ever invest in your solution? In this episode, we share:The primary causes of decisionmakers not understanding the problemThe three messaging elements that will get decisionmakers to see the problem you solve as important and urgentThe vital question you must ask multiple times as you develop your messaging around the problemThe most common unhelpful belief decisionmakers have that causes them to disregard the problemThe critical ingredient to add to your messaging to disrupt those unhelpful beliefs If you found value in this episode, please share it with other progressive nonprofit leaders. And I'd be grateful if you would leave a rating and review on Apple podcasts, which will help even more people find out about this podcast.Thanks!

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on a real coaching session from inside The Growth Collective, where I work with brilliant women every month on refining the exact messaging shifts that lead to more sales. You'll get a front-row seat as I coach three powerhouse business owners through their current content and messaging challenges—from an email marketing consultant who just had three years-long lurkers turn into paying clients, to a Pilates studio owner navigating the move from in-person to online membership, to a high-level intimacy coach who works with CEOs and YPO leaders but feels like a "well-kept secret" online. We dig into the difference between visibility and conversion, why content is the car and messaging is the gas, and how the "so, but" transitions inside my Momentum Messaging Framework can transform a flat post into one that moves people toward a buying decision. We talk about giving yourself permission to go all in on one platform that actually feels aligned (instead of being everywhere), how to extract content from the work you're already doing with clients, and why the issue is almost never the platform—it's the messaging. If you've ever wondered what it actually looks like to be coached on your content in real time, this episode is your seat at the table. Liked this episode?

Welcome to The Daily. Today, I want to give a shoutout to Jeff Fox from Airdrie, Alberta. Thank you so much for your partnership with us in Project23. Grab your Hosea Scripture Journal. Our text today is Hosea 10:3-4: For now they will say: "We have no king, for we do not fear the Lord; and a king—what could he do for us?" They utter mere words; with empty oaths they make covenants; so judgment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of the field. — Hosea 10:3-4 People frequently blame bad leadership without asking what kind of culture produced it. Hosea goes deeper than politics. Israel's leadership crisis was not merely a government problem. It was a spiritual problem. "We have no king, for we do not fear the LORD." That's the issue. The fear of God had disappeared, and once that happens, leadership becomes hollow. Leaders begin serving themselves instead of the truth. Promises become performative. Covenants become manipulation. Words become tools instead of commitments. Hosea states this, "They utter mere words." Our world is filled with words. Speeches. Statements. Branding. Messaging. Public outrage. Carefully crafted narratives. But beneath much of it is a vacuum because truth has been disconnected from character. When people stop fearing and following God, integrity becomes optional. It is God who holds integrity together. This is why he has given us his Spirit. His Spirit is the person who convicts our flesh to live in accordance with God's truth. If we don't live with godly integrity, eventually judgment "springs up like poisonous weeds." Notice that image. Poison grows where truth once should have grown. Corruption spreads. What was planted quietly begins affecting everything. That's why leadership failures are never just leadership failures. They reveal something deeper about the spiritual condition of the people underneath them. A nation that rejects truth will eventually produce leaders who do the same. A culture that rewards image over integrity will eventually be ruled by performance instead of principle. Hosea is calling us to clarity and consistency. Political solutions cannot heal spiritual problems. Elections matter, laws matter, leaders matter—but none of them can replace repentance. National renewal has always started with spiritual renewal. You may not lead a nation, but you are leading somewhere. In your home. Your workplace. Your friendships. Your church. Your influence. So ask yourself: Am I leading from conviction or image? Do my words carry integrity? Would my private life support my public statements? Because the world does not need more impressive leaders. It needs truthful ones. And truthful leaders are formed first by the fear of the Lord. DO THIS: Pray today for your nation, your leaders, your church, and yourself—that truth and integrity would replace performance and empty words. ASK THIS: Where have I prioritized image over integrity? Do my words and actions align? How is God calling me to lead truthfully right now? PRAY THIS: God, restore truth and integrity in our leaders and in me. Teach me to fear you rightly so my life reflects honesty, courage, and conviction. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Build My Life"

In this episode, I'm talking about one of the biggest reasons launches fail to attract enough sign-ups—and it's probably not what you think. If your webinar, challenge, boot camp, or masterclass isn't getting the registrations you expected, it's rarely because people aren't interested. More often than not, the real issue is your messaging. I explain why getting people to sign up is the first crucial step in a successful launch and why your message needs to instantly communicate why your audience should invest their time. We dive into the simple messaging shifts that can dramatically improve your launch results. I share how to focus on the transformation your audience wants, speak directly to their biggest struggles instead of your own agenda, and make one clear promise rather than trying to teach everything at once. By the end of this episode, you'll have a practical framework to review your next launch and create messaging that attracts more of the right people. 3 Key Takeaways: Be Crystal Clear About the Outcome People sign up because of the result they'll get, not because of the format of your event. Make it obvious what they'll achieve by attending. Focus on Their Problems, Not Your Content Your audience cares more about solving their challenges than hearing everything you plan to teach. Lead with their pain points and desired transformation. Keep Your Message Focused Avoid overwhelming potential attendees with too many promises. One clear, compelling outcome is far more effective than trying to cover everything.

Russian intelligence services are targeting Signal, WhatsApp, and Telegram users — not by breaking encryption, but by stealing accounts through phishing, QR code tricks, linked-device abuse, and backup recovery key theft. Tom and Kevin break down the FBI warning, the $10 million Rewards for Justice bounty, and the practical security lesson for anyone relying on encrypted messaging: your app can be secure while your account, endpoint, or recovery path is still the weak link.They also discuss why QR-code phishing and linked-device abuse can bypass what users expect from encrypted messaging, why endpoint and account recovery hygiene matter as much as encrypted transport, what to do when "support" asks for recovery keys or codes, and Tom's personal career update joining Secure Ideas as Executive Director of Consulting.Special thanks to Guardsquare for sponsoring this episode!

Main ideas: - Likability is the residue of an interaction: did someone make you feel good, and would you look forward to seeing them again? - It is subjective but not completely arbitrary. Smiling, warmth, tone, body language, humour, listening and word choice are recurring ingredients. - Likability is learnable and effectively free. The speakers reject the idea that people are simply born likable or unlikable. - Messaging can matter as much as the message. A strong idea presented by a disliked person may fail; a weak idea presented by a likable person may spread. - It is a multiplier for competence. Workplaces may reject brilliant performers whom colleagues actively avoid. - Conversation is “social tennis.” Likable people return the conversational ball rather than trying to ace the other person. - Life is a multiplayer game. A useful shift is from “What do I want to do?” to “How can I make this game or interaction better for everyone?” - Being good energy matters. The speakers suggest intentionally creating periods—perhaps once a week—when friends or partners set their problems aside and have fun. - Context changes the recipe. Humour may dominate in public or parasocial settings, while empathy and feeling understood matter more one-to-one. - There is a golden mean. Too little likability becomes abrasive; too much becomes approval-seeking. If it is merely a tool for getting what you want, it becomes manipulation. - Authenticity and mission can compensate for abrasiveness. Musk, Jobs and Trump are presented as examples of people liked by some precisely because they appear uncompromising. - Political likability can be dangerous. Charisma can acquire power, override policy evaluation and attach people to ideas or leaders. - Disagreement need not be disagreeable. Likability includes hearing opposing views, separating people from their ideas, and allowing disagreement without personal rejection. - Ideas themselves can be likable. An emotionally appealing idea can propagate even if its practical outcomes are poor—the speakers use socialism and Marxism as their contentious example. - Growth encourages positive-sum thinking. One speaker argues that low economic growth intensifies tribal and zero-sum conflict, while renewed growth—potentially driven by AI—could encourage openness and cooperation. - Dale Carnegie's practical recipe receives the clearest endorsement: show genuine interest, smile and be warm, remember names, listen more than you speak, discuss the other person's interests, and make people feel sincerely valued.
On today's episode, I'm sharing the 3 pivotal shifts to make in your messaging to regularly bring in your right people and turn away those that aren't. Strong messaging speaks to your people's current reality and invites them into the outcomes they actually want. In other words, your words have the power to transform how they see themselves, ultimately resulting in stronger positioning, a loyal customer base, and revenue you can take to the bank.

On today's show Andrew and Ben begin with a look at the state of Meta. Topics include: Mark Zuckerberg's sins of commission vs. omission as a messenger, Meta's AI opportunity, directionally correct investments, the problems with Meta as a cloud provider, and the absence of religion in Menlo Park. From there: Why Microsoft should move on from the XBOX era, and the shift in gaming habits that doomed Game Pass from the outset. At the end: OpenAI introduces GPT-Live, a question about the cost of Ben's vibe coding adventure spawns a digression on future token costs, the cost of youth sports, American soccer and learning Chinese, tech weirdos and the future of normie app building, and Ben gets castigated for bringing a Starlink on vacation.

Democrats have spent the past year using the Epstein issue as a platform for moral outrage, demanding transparency, accountability, and consequences for powerful people who looked the other way. But the Graham Platner scandal exposes the same selective blindness inside their own political operation. Platner was elevated as an authentic, populist Democratic Senate candidate despite serious warning signs, public controversies, and disturbing allegations that eventually made him politically radioactive. The central hypocrisy is not that Democrats were wrong to pursue Epstein accountability, but that they preached about institutional protection and survivor-centered justice while tolerating a deeply flawed candidate when he was useful to their own electoral goals.The collapse of support for Platner only came after the scandal became impossible to manage, making the party's moral posture look more like damage control than principle. If Democrats argue that proximity, silence, enabling, and ignored red flags matter in the Epstein world, then those same standards must apply in their own backyard. Endorsements are transfers of credibility, and the politicians who boosted Platner cannot simply walk away once the cost becomes too high. The larger point is that selective morality poisons public trust: a party cannot credibly condemn coverups and institutional cowardice while excusing its own version of political convenience, delayed outrage, and strategic blindness.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
In this episode, I'm sharing a powerful conversation I had with Samantha Daily, host of the Make Shift Happen podcast and a brilliant voice for women building intentional online businesses. We get into the hard truth that so many online entrepreneurs are facing right now: showing up, posting, pouring effort into your content, and still not converting. Why? Because your messaging and positioning, not your content or your visibility, is what sells. I walk Samantha and her audience through my Momentum Messaging Framework, the exact strategy that helped me scale to over a million dollars in less than a year. We unpack why constantly reinventing your content strategy might be doing more harm than good, the difference between pleasure content and power content (and why most women only create the first), how to know if your messaging is actually working, and why posting less might be the move that finally gets your ideal client to pay attention and buy. I also share the leadership maturity required to scale, the compounded growth that took me from $250K to $1.3M in nine months, and the question I ask every new client: if I dropped 100 paying clients into your world today, could you actually hold them? If you've ever felt like you're screaming into the social media void or exhausted from over-delivering without the sales to match, this episode is your breath of fresh air. Liked this episode?

If you want to build a successful Coaching Business, pumping out more content isn't the answer. In this episode, I explain why your real challenge is actually your messaging, not your content, and how fixing it will help you attract better clients who stay, pay what you charge, and get results.
This training breaks down why chasing more leads is far less powerful than creating pre-sold buyers from the audience you already have. Using real client case studies, it explains how to sharpen your messaging, carve out a sub-niche, and build a content ecosystem (social, email, long-form, and workshops) that systematically shifts beliefs, shortens sales cycles, and makes you the obvious choice, without relying on endless new lead generation. "You don't need more leads, you need more pre-sold buyers." Key Points: Pre-sold buyers > more leads Scale revenue from existing audience Weak marketing makes sales hard Messaging must match your market Reposition with a clear sub-niche Use "dog whistle" messaging Attract right people, repel wrong ones Shift core beliefs about problem and path Sell a unique solution and identity Use stories and real social proof Build a content triangle: social, email, long-form Content ecosystem warms leads up Run regular workshops/masterclasses Workshops act as live video sales letters Aim to be the "obvious choice" in your niche Connect with Jason Meland: Email: jason@goliveonlinemastermind.com Website: https://www.growmyvisibility.com/ Instagram: @coachjasonmeland Facebook: Jason Meland - In Demand Coach LinkedIn: Jason Meland
Being visible is essential in our businesses right now — and if you're in the online business, coaching, or speaking world, you already know that there is a LOT happening in this space around showing up, creating content, talking to camera, and making video. And I am genuinely here for all of it. Showing up matters. Building that muscle matters. But here's what I think is getting lost in the conversation: if you actually want your online presence to DO something for your business, you still need to know what to say. And it's not one perfect post or a template that's suddenly going to explode your business and bring in a flood of clients.In this episode I'm teaching my messaging strategy and breaking it down into the seven distinct styles and angles that need to be represented across the entirety of your content and body of work. I'm also getting into what messaging really is, how it connects to everything you create, and why everything you put out into the world — from a ten-second reel to a two-day live event — is content. All of it together is your body of work. And understanding that is what actually changes how you show up.I'm breaking down each of the seven messaging styles, what they do, who they reach, and why no single one of them is enough on its own — because different people in your audience need to hear different things at completely different moments, in completely different ways.In this episode you'll hear:Why visibility and showing up are essential AND why you still need to know what to say — and what that actually looks like in practiceWhat messaging really is and how it connects to absolutely everything you create in your businessWhy everything you put out into the world is content — and what your body of work is actually made ofThe seven messaging styles that need to be represented across your content over time — and what each one does for a different person in your audienceWhy different people need to hear the same thing in completely different ways — and why that's not repetition, it's strategyWhy there is no one perfect post, template, or platform that does the whole job — and what to focus on insteadIf you've been showing up and creating content and wondering why it's not quite doing what you want it to do, this episode is going to give you the full picture — and a completely new way to think about everything you say and create.

Bill talks with political strategist and messaging consultant Anat Shenker-Osorio about what Democrats should say—and who should say it—heading into the midterms to check Trump 2.0. Shenker-Osorio argues Democrats must combine an affordability agenda with a clear villain frame, calling Trump's team “bullies for the billionaires,” and pair warnings about authoritarianism with credible promises to act as a real check, not just “shout fire.” She says corruption messaging is not automatically a Democratic advantage because many voters believe all politicians are corrupt, and criticizes party leaders like Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, and Amy Klobuchar for ineffective communication. And the need for money has pols spending too much time on donor-driven “call time.” They discuss campaign “magnetism,” lessons from New York races and Zohran Mamdani's focus on concrete benefits, Jon Ossoff's anti-corruption appeal, backlash from James Carville, and the mixed calculus around Maine candidate Graham Platner's working-class message amid allegations about past behavior.Today Bill urges you to support Jon Ossoff by going to ACTBlue.com.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, I'm sharing a soul-and-strategy conversation I had with the powerhouse Stefanie Gass, on her podcast God-Led Business. Stefanie is a leading voice for faith-led entrepreneurs and visibility strategy. We get into the early days of my business, the hard-won clarity that led me to my first million-dollar year, and the moment I finally stopped trying to be a lifestyle blogger and just allowed myself to be "Julie Publicist." I share my exact definition of messaging versus content, why your content isn't converting (hint: it's not a content problem), and the specific shift my client made that turned one post into $15,000 in sales. We unpack the difference between messaging as the foundation and content as the tactical execution, why niching down has nothing to do with content pillars, and the visibility truth I learned from my years in PR: opportunity doesn't fall from the sky—you have to put yourself in the path of it. If you've ever felt too late, too unqualified, or like your genius isn't being seen, this episode is your encouragement and your permission slip. Liked this episode?
