Congress loves cobbling together various types of legislation into giant omnibus spending bills. Often times, these bills are named for one thing...while packing in funding for a variety of unrelated topics. Take for example the Democrats' infrastructure bill which is loaded with funding from childcare to climate change. Former Congresswoman Mia Love tried to stop this practice when she was in office. She joins us to discuss why it's important to only deal with one topic at a time.    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The message will not change. When I'm hot or cold, when I'm strong or weak, when I'm applauded or scorned, when I'm awarded or pelted with stones, when I'm encouraged or persecuted, it will never ever change. And that message is that Jesus is returning as King to topple the kingdom of the anti Christ after he has overcome the people of the Saints in the Great Tribulation and The Lord will gather us, His Faithful Ones(dead and living), from all the ends of the earth to reign with Him a thousand years. The others will be experiencing the wrath of God as contained in the 7th Seal until the devil has been released from the bottomless pit and he'll go out to deceive them that will remain whose number will be like the sand of the sea. There is no second chances friends, you miss it you miss out. The anti Christ is here, refuse his mark, number and worship God alone. I love you.

In this episode, hosts Alan Sanders and Walt Murray are joined by voice-acting talent and radio personality, Autumn Fischer. We open learning Autumn fell into the radio business somewhat by accident. Catching the ear and mind of radio host Eric von Haessler got her on when he was with The Regular Guys show. After that show fell apart, Eric began to reinvent himself. He invited trusted talents to join him for a daily podcast show from his home. Years of plugging away led to a return gig on WSB Radio in Atlanta. Autumn, on the cusp of a degree and an IT career, took the leap of faith to be part of it. Years later, they are the number one rated morning show in Atlanta from 9AM-12PM. Along with her history, Alan, Walt and Autumn talk about the very real danger of cancel culture. It's a serious discussion, handled in a humorous way. Autumn Fischer sticks around though the rest of the show as we move into our terrible movie review. We follow that with four ridiculous news items. The show ends with an entertainment discussion over what each are watching, reading and listening to. WATCHING Walt is finally starting to watch WandaVision and has enjoyed the first few episodes. Walt also re-watched Coming to America in preparation to watch the new sequel, Coming2America. Alan jumped on that, saying he and his wife just watched both of those films back-to-back. Alan liked the nostalgia and the hommage to the first film. Alan is also midway through season one of Star Trek: The Original Serieis (remastered). Autumn highly recommends the YouTube channel, Red Letter Media. She also likes OSS117, The Real Housewives of NJ and NY and the British series, Peep Show. READING Walt just ordered a copy of "Running with the Devil," a history of Van Halen. Alan and Autumn decided to plead the fifth. LISTENING Walt started the podcast, Dark Arenas, and was immediately hooked to this twist on the crime podcast genre. Alan did a shameless plug for The Marriage Fit Podcast, a show recently started by him and his wife. He also started to listen to the History of the Marine Corps, a show suggested by prior guest, Bryon Lockhart. Autumn listens to several podcasts. Recent ones include: Where My Mom's At; 2 Bears, 1 Cave; Your Mom's House, Saving Sex in the City 3 and Watch What Crappens. She also did a shameless plug for her own podcast, One Topic.

But not to worry, we can easily get rid of this problem we just need to do one thing 1.) Choose one topic every day. 2.) Plan your content by jotting down all the points which come to your mind once you note it down, organize and streamline the points in the order in which you have to present the topic. It will not only assure that no point is missed but duplication of the point can also be eliminated. 3.) Follow the PIPEC method to create content on the topic a.) P means PURPOSE - The first point should always specify the purpose of your content and mention who should pay attention to the point you are sharing. b.) I mean IMPORTANCE –Then, you need to focus on sharing the importance of the topic for the listeners. This will make them interested in the topic. c.) P means Preview - After that, you can share all the relevant things which should be discussed as far as the topic is concerned. d.) E means EXAMPLE - Site a few examples so that listeners can correlate with what you are saying and if the example is from day to day life it really becomes easier for the listener to remember the things said. e.) C means CONCLUDE - Last you should conclude your topic by reiterating what are the important things to be considered by the listeners so that, you are making sure that communication reaches the listeners.

TJ Rumler grew up in West Greenville, SC, seeing first-hand the impacts of poverty, addiction, and racism in his community. Two weeks after 9/11, he enlisted in the US Army.

Ep 27: Why Your Donors Want to Hear From You TODAY

Unlocking Your Nonprofit Potential

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 23, 2019 15:47


It’s the end of the year – in fact, this episode is actually being released ON CHRISTMAS EVE… so Merry Christmas!  The end of the year is a GREAT time to check in with your donors with an email!  Truth be told, it’s ALWAYS a great time to check in with your donors – any time you have a good reason to check in with them, or give them an update on what’s going on with your nonprofit, you are growing your relationship with them. Your relationship with your donors is the BIGGEST part of them giving you money. If you have a good relationship with your donors – you keep in touch CONSISTENTLY, you make them feel good – like the hero.  You let them know their donation is making a difference – they will want to give you money! So really, this is a great time to send them an email… Think about it…at this time of year, you love hearing from people you care about…whether a card in the mail or with an email. So reach out and let your donors know you care. Now, maybe you over-achieved and your nonprofit actually did send out a Christmas card to your donors… But maybe you didn’t… and now, it’s too late for you to jump on that train this year.  But it isn’t too late! Even if you DID send out a Christmas card, sending out another email with a “little season’s greetings, thanks for your support this past year, here’s what we accomplished this year with your support” is still a GREAT idea!  And if you didn’t send out a greeting, now you can send out a warm, feel-good email to express your gratitude and say Merry Christmas to your donors, volunteers and the people you serve too! It is the EASIEST and FASTEST way to grow your relationships with the people that matter to your organization. Do it before the end of the first week of the New Year. That’s PLENTY of time to write 3 sentences – that’s all it has to be for this type of end of the year check-in email. Write 3 sentences and include a great picture. To make it easy for you in the future – so you have some in-depth direction of where to go with your emails to your donors, this week I’m sharing with you a replay of Episode 13: 5 Things You NEED to Know About Email Newsletters This episode is packed full of tips and tricks for writing the BEST EMAIL EVER!  Remember to keep in mind my little analogy -  that your donors and supporters are like plants growing in a garden.  They are getting watered with Facebook and Instagram and if you add EMAIL, it’s like giving these plants FERTILIZER!  The result? Your plants will be in full bloom year-round!  Why email? Because according to recent research, people prefer email for communicating with the brands they’re connected with – yes, that includes your nonprofit organization.  If your nonprofit has multiple audiences you’re talking to (donors and supporters, people you serve), you can use separate email lists to nurture your relationships with each group.  Here are the 5 Things You NEED to Know About Email Newsletters: Write a great subject line. Think about it – if you get an email with a weak or boring subject line, do you want to open that email? No… probably not! You might even just delete it without even opening it, especially if it’s a business or an organization. So, try to make your subject line genuine, interesting and of course, in-line with what your email is about. Use the right framework: A picture, a paragraph and a call to action. Why? Because it WORKS! The picture captures someone’s attention right off the bat, the paragraph goes into more detail, and the call to action clearly lets that person know what they should do after they read the email.  Put the most important information first. Pretend like you only have ONE SENTENCE to tell someone what your email is about. Make that the first sentence of your email. Start strong and tell them right away what your email is about in that first sentence. Keep it simple and short. Your emails should be a quick and easy read and about ONE TOPIC. Try to keep your emails to about 200 words, or about 20 lines - if it needs to be longer, or shorter, that’s OK – but just remember, take out anything that your audience doesn’t have to know about. If it’s not going to help your audience take action, then leave it out.   Give them something. Give them a reason to OPEN and read your email. Remember, they’re asking themselves:  ‘Why does this matter to me?” If you have two email lists – one list for your donors and supporters, and one for the people you serve, you’re going to give these two groups of people two different things.  You’re going to give your donors and supporters the uplifting, positive feelings they get because they are helping the community or a cause.  For the people you serve, you’re giving them resources in your emails - small, digestible pieces of information that can help them - like a class or list or freebie.  Serve your audiences with ONE TOPIC in every email. It’s all part of building that know, like and trust factor.  Again, be consistent with when you email your people  – at the beginning, try sending out an email just once a month.  Then work up to once a week, but again, the most important thing is that you are consistent. So, commit to a goal you can achieve. And finally, always remember WHY YOU ARE DOING THIS! There is so much day to day stuff that can be overwhelming and distracting from your purpose and your mission, but always remember your WHY. What was it that first inspired you to get involved with your nonprofit organization? Take ownership of that! Keep that fire burning in your heart! You are making a difference in the world. A big difference is the culmination of a lot of little steps. So, take that next little step today, and get to work on your next email! You ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE!

Have you ever heard that saying “Clear as mud?” You know, when you’re trying to explain something to someone, and you realize you’ve taken something that was simple and overcomplicated it?  Sometimes that’s what happens with Facebook and Instagram posts.  You’re afraid you might only have this one chance to tell them about your nonprofit organization, so you tell them everything!  But in this crazy, busy, distracting world we live in, it’s more important than ever to give people little bite sized pieces of information on Facebook and Instagram. In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to create those little bite sized pieces of information. By keeping things crystal clear, your followers can understand what you’re saying to them and have a good feeling about your nonprofit organization.  Then as they get to know, like and trust you, they will keep coming back for more. This is a skill, and if you practice it, you’ll be amazed at the crowd you’ll begin to attract with your Facebook and Instagram posts. You have to remember two things about your people on social media:   Your Facebook and Instagram audiences’ attention span is short. You have SECONDS to make an impression on someone on social media, and if they don’t understand what you’re saying right off the bat, they’ll just scroll on by to the next thing they see on Facebook and Instagram. They don’t know your nonprofit organization like you do. You might know every single detail about your nonprofit organization and how great your mission is. Seeing your organization’s Facebook and Instagram post might be the first time someone has ever heard of you, so get straight to the point with a bite sized message.   Here are four easy, doable tips to help you create ULTRA CRYSTAL CLEAR messages:   Focus on ONE TOPIC per post.Knowing your brand helps you be clear when you talk about your nonprofit organization. In Episode 4, there is a fun quiz to help you figure out what the 3 – 5 most important things your nonprofit does. Once you identified those, then you can make those things into little bite sized pieces of information for posts. Keep your posts simple. Try to give your audience a sip of water, not a drink from a firehose. You can do this by using the outline that WORKS!  Every post should have a picture, a caption and a call to action.  A picture can be an actual picture you have permission to use. A caption is 1-2 sentences with the main point of your post.  A call to action is when you tell your audience to call your phone number, or visit your website and you include the link.  Pretend you’re new in town. Don’t assume your audience knows anything about you. Talk to them like this is the first time they’re meeting you. Focus on keeping your posts simple and to one topic, and they will be able to learn about you a little at a time instead of just scrolling by because there is too much to read. Give only the “Need to know” information. I know you might be tempted to share lots of information because you think it might help someone make up their mind, but if they don’t even read your message because you’ve overloaded it with details, then what’s the point?  So there you have it, four things you can do today to help your message be crystal clear. Focus on one topic per post, keep it simple, pretend like you’re new in town and give only the “need to know” info. If you apply these four things to everything in your nonprofit – your website, your emails, your events, all your different kinds of advertising, your social media, you will be amazed at how much of an impact you can have. Your words will have more impact because you removed all the clutter! Over time, your messages will bring new people to your nonprofit.  Keep showing up with clear messages and consistently. And always keep in mind WHY YOU ARE DOING THIS! It’s easy to get bogged down in the day to day stuff, but always remember your WHY. You are making a difference in the world. A big difference is the culmination of a lot of little steps.  So take that next little step today and make your message clear so your audience can understand you!  Remember to check out the free tools we have on NonprofitPotential.com like the FREE GUIDE that breaks down into easy-to-understand steps What makes a good Facebook and Instagram Post I’d love to be friends and learn about what kind of nonprofit organization you work with so I can give you a shout out and use examples that apply to your situation – so keep in touch on Facebook and Instagram, just search for me under Nonprofit Potential.

Every good presenter, blogger, or podcaster knows that each item produced (slide, blog post, podcast episode) should be about one single topic.

Writing a report for your website can be quite a nightmare How are you supposed to put 20-30 pages together? And what system should you follow to get great results? That answer is remarkably simple, and plainly effective. And instead of just one way, why don't we look at three ways you can put together a great report! Let's go into report-land, shall we? Read this episode on the website: Three Ways To Write A Stunning Report Overnight ---------------- Rice. Curry. Meat, Fish. Papad. Pickle. Vegetables. Many, if not most of the meals we'd have when I was growing up, consisted of a what you'd easily call a well-rounded meal. But as a teenager, I couldn't wait for dinner. I was ravenous by the time I got back from school at 4 pm. I'd head to the pantry, and pick out my favourite noodles: Maggi Masala. Boil the water, toss in the noodles and the tastemaker and “two minutes” later, I'd be well on my ate to satisfaction-land. When creating information, it's easy to get lost in a “rice, curry, pickle, papad land”. However, complexity is the last thing you need, because it slows you down. What you need is something that's quick, yet effective. Something you can put together for your website, or as goodies to attract clients. In this series, we're going to look at three ways to create a report, seemingly overnight—if you have a small or even disconnected content. And we'll also look at what to do when you don't have any content at all. It might not take “two minutes” but you can put together a report that will create a solid impact. Let's take a look at the three types of reports you could put together. Type 1: Report that goes from C to A Type 2: Diverse, Disconnected Topic Report Type 3:One Topic, Many Angles Report Type 1: Report that goes from C to A How do you make a delicious rice dish in under five minutes? Step 1: Take a cup of cooked rice. Step 2: In a frying pan, pop a teaspoon of mustard seeds and some dry red chillies in oil. Step 3: Pour the oil, mustard seeds and red chillies over the rice and add 1 ½ cup of natural yoghurt. Notice where we started? We didn't start with the cooked rice. Our goal was to make a delicious rice dish in under five minutes. And then we worked our way backwards, didn't we? We didn't go from A to B to C. Instead we started with the goal in mind, then rewound the steps and it wasn't very difficult to get a very tasty result. When writing a report, it's easy to feel like you have to cover a lot of information When I started writing marketing articles back in the year 2000, I had no idea what to write about. I'd read a book about positioning, and then borrow some of the ideas and write my own version of positioning. I'd talk to someone about how they needed to brand their product or service and then rush home to work my way through an article. These were early days. I was struggling just to get 500 words on a page. I wasn't exactly worried about which articles got more attention than others. Even so, it was hard to ignore how some articles got far greater views than others. One such article was about how to write headlines in three steps. Another winner seemed to be how to tell if your business card was too busy. Again, three steps. At which point we had this bizarre idea to turn one of the articles into a report. We did nothing more than put the very same information into a PDF. We added some graphics, made the report look all pretty and then put it on the website as an incentive to sign up to the newsletters. If you've ever subscribed to the Psychotactics newsletter, you're likely to have seen and read this report. The reason why it works is because it's short, but more importantly it starts with Point C. It shows you how to build a headline in a few minutes, that's what it does. With the goal firmly in mind, it walks you through Step A, Step B and then in a matter of 8-10 pages you're at Step C. It's not unlike the method used to make the yoghurt rice, is it? You're not creating a complex document. All you're really doing is getting a client to get to a specific point, no matter how small the point. We might believe a report needs to be more detailed, certainly more complex to be taken seriously Instead what you'll quickly realise is that clients want the quick wins. And if the quick win is small, so much the better. If I were to give you a recipe of a biryani (another rice dish), with 30 ingredients, you're not likely to make that dish, are you? Yet, a 5-minute shot at yoghurt rice couldn't go so terribly wrong, could it? In the worst possible scenario you'd waste five minutes, wouldn't you? Having a simple report that starts at C and works its way backwards in about three steps is what makes it easy to create a ton of reports—if you want to do so—that is. But why create a ton of reports? Let's say your site covers different topics, or has different products or services. Let's say you get to the Psychotactics site and land on a page about resistance. Would you be more likely to sign up for a report on resistance or on a topic like consumption? And if you were to land on a page about consumption, would you want more information on consumption or suddenly be fascinated with the topic of resistance? Having multiple pages with reports embedded in them helps a client land on a page, read an article, and then find a report that's closely matching up with the article itself. Best of all, that report doesn't promise a tonne of information, but instead has three tiny steps to get the client to a result. If you're wondering if you have to create a report for every page, no you don't. We have topics such as websites, article writing, consumption, uniqueness, etc. And if you have five-seven broad topics, you can create five-seven quick reports on each individual topic. But back to the headline report That report itself has been responsible for getting tens of thousands of clients over the years. When I put up a figure, I say it's been downloaded over 55,000 times, but that's being overly conservative. That headline report has been downloaded at least over 100,000 times and possibly a lot more. What's important is that the report didn't take time to put together. And when you look back, it didn't even have much of a strategy. If you're teaching Photoshop, show your clients how to get from A-C in three steps. If you're selling blue-tac, show your clients how to use it in three-steps. Almost any product or service can be quickly reduced to a specific subset, and then you can show the client how to get to that result quickly and consistently. Try the yoghurt rice. It takes five minutes. It takes three steps. It would make a good report, that's for sure. A one page report, but the moment you tried it, you'd be hooked. You'd want more, wouldn't you? And that's the magic of a C-A report. It's quick to put together and the client loves it. But that's only one way to create a report. What if you wanted some variety, instead? Let's look at the second option where you have a report with content that's diverse and seemingly completely disconnected. Type 2: Diverse, Disconnected Topic Report “Bring a plate”. Sometimes, when you go to a party in New Zealand, you're told “bring a plate”. For anyone born in Kiwi land, such an expression isn't very odd. But you have no idea how many immigrants think it's a crockery problem. They somehow think the host must have just a few plates, and bringing a plate along will help ease the dinnerware issue. “Bring a plate” just means bring some food along, because we're having a potluck party And if there's anything I detest when it comes to food, it's a potluck party. Barbecue chicken mingles with wontons, and chickpeas with some tomato-ketchup concoction. For me, it's a culinary nightmare. The textures, colours, and especially the tastes are a complete mishmash. But really, no one cares about me They're having too much fun with their chickpeas and tomato-concoction. And sometimes being a little stuck up at a party, is similar to being stuck up when creating a report. It's easy to believe that a report has to go from C to A, or has to work with a single topic. In reality, reports just do fine, potluck style. We tried this in the membership site at 5000bc One of the perks of 5000bc is something called the Vanishing Reports. At first, I was an absolute stickler about the reports. They all had to have a sequence. They all had to somehow take you from one point to another. Then, I realised that's hardly the way I read anything. At this very moment, I'm reading about the “butterfly effect”, “the moons of Jupiter,” “creativity” and “confidence”. That sounds very mishy-mashy, doesn't it? Which is why we trialled reports that had a combination of “pricing, conversion, starting up, and a whole bunch of topics that seemingly didn't sit side by side with each other. And it worked! Sometimes the report will have super-duper-ultra focus. Like Report No. 59: The Magical Time-Saving Powers of Evernote. Or Report No.6: Three Core Steps To A Viral Campaign. But Report No.60: How To Keep Learning and Growing for Success, or Report No.45: Good Business Habits ,can have a bit of bacon baguettes jostling with the wontons. This revelation shouldn't have surprised me because that's how I read, and how a lot of people tend to read. A newspaper, for instance, is a bit of a mishmash, isn't it? A magazine, that's definitely all over the place. Blogs, podcasts, videos: they all seem to follow a slightly random pattern without us so much blinking an eye. What does this mean for you, however? It means that you may not have ten articles on a single topic. You may run a yoga site, and some articles might be about stretching, some may be about shavasana, some may be about what the client needs to do on a full moon night. They're seemingly disconnected, but it still makes for a splendid report, doesn't it? And better still, you don't even need ten articles. Just three-four, okay five articles. That's just fine because every article will probably span 2-3 pages and if you slip in the introduction and a bit of an epilogue, you're looking at a decent fifteen to seventeen pages of content. And despite the mishmash, you can create a strong feeling of cohesion within the report There are two elements that create a connection. The first point of focus is the title. If you're going to put together a bunch of unconnected pieces of content, the title must somehow tie the content neatly together. Interestingly, you can veer down the non-specific route when creating a title. E.g. How to create “hidden magic” in your business. Or “Good Business Habits”. As I veer my chair to my left to look at the titles of some books, I see a title like “The Non-designers Design Book” by Robin Williams. Or “Design it Yourself” by Chuck Green. Or “Scientific Advertising” by Claude Hopkins. All of these books may, on the face of it, look incredibly focused, but one look within the pages and they're a disparate bunch of articles that have a workable title and one other element that is probably more important. In most of the books—and this applies to reports as well—there's a bridge between the chapters. This second element isn't utterly crucial, but it's nice to have Notice how this piece of content connected from the first type of report to the second? A bit earlier in this piece, you read about the report that goes from C to A. And then as we got to the end, we could just stop dead, or create a bit of a bridge. The last few lines spoke about how the C to A report is potent, but what if you wanted more variety? And then it suggested that there was a second kind of report—the report that had diverse, disconnected topics. It's the kind of thing you should be doing: creating a bridge As you come to the end of your piece in the report, build up the anticipation for the second piece. As the second piece winds to a close, it's time to shine the spotlight on the third, and so on. A simple set of lines at the end of the content create enough of glue to bind seemingly random topics together. We're not talking about mixing auto-repair and gardening in a report on business, but you get the point, don't you? That isn't to say I like potluck parties. I guess I never will. Yet, as we've seen, it works just fine with reports. Are we done, yet? Not quite. There's still one more kind of report. Which as you might have guessed is the most obvious one of all. It's the report that consists of a single topic. It seems pretty self-explanatory, doesn't it? Still, let's take a look at why that kind of report is much-loved and how to go about creating it in a way that is pretty magical. Type 3: One Topic, Many Angles Report On 29th March 1974, farmers in the Xi'an district of China stumbled on a treasure that was to rival the Great Wall of China. The farmers real goal was to find water for their crops, when they stumbled on a beautifully sculpted head. The more they began to dig, the more they found hundreds, and then thousands of soldiers—terracotta soldiers. This was the army of Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of unified China. Over 8000 terracotta warriors, cavalry, charioteers, foot soldiers and archers, were built to accompany the emperor into the afterlife. These terracotta soldiers were created using moulds and seem to have an early assembly-line construction. And this is where the story gets really interesting Most of the hands of the Terracotta Army appear identical. Yet, when you look closer ever single soldier seems to have completely unique facial features. Every one it seems came from similar moulds, but somehow got tweaked just a little bit to create a high level of uniqueness. When creating reports, a single mould; a single topic can be tweaked in dozens, possibly thousands of ways as well Which is why a report on a single topic can be so very powerful. The information that seems to emanate from one source suddenly creates a wealth of sub-topics that become very attractive to the reader. What is being suggested here, is that you can you have a single topic and have dozens of sub-topics. Each sub-topic represents an article and several such articles become a fascinating report. To get the one-topic report going, all you have to do is first start with the topic and add a few sub-topics. Let's take a topic like headlines, for starters. What kind of sub-topics could we generate? Testimonial Headlines: How To Get Your Clients To Write Your Headlines Bottom-Up Headlines: How To Use Headlines As Email Signatures Keywords And headlines How To Avoid Potluck Headlines Why Unclear Topics Lead to Unfocused Headlines How To Use The Attraction Factor of Knew and New (When Writing Headlines) How to Write Intensely Powerful Headlines Without Using Keywords What you're experiencing is the creating of a Terracotta Army The topic, in this case, headlines, is pretty mundane. Even so, if you leave your computer, and your Internet connection behind and head to the cafe, you're likely to be able to come up with several sub-topics for any given topic. You may not end up writing great headlines right at the start, but you'll have a bunch of topics nonetheless. Let's take an example from Photoshop, for instance. Let's not get lost in the Photoshop universe, however. If you've done just a bit of homework, you'll quickly figure out that you can just pick one sub-topic in Photoshop. Let's say for instance, that sub-topic is “Selections and Layer Masks in Photoshop”. Ready, let's run through the sub-sub-topics, shall we? Okay, Selections and Layer Masks, here we come! Using the Marquee and Lasso tools Combining selections Converting a selection into a layer mask Using the Quick Selection tool Selecting soft-edged objects using Refine Edge Touching up a layer mask with the Brush tool Granted that all of the above topics may seem alien to you at this point, but just talking about Photoshop does bring up an interesting story. When I first got to New Zealand I had a job as a web designer Within six months, I was made redundant and needed to get some work as a cartoonist. This took me to several ad agencies, and in these ad agencies you tend to deal with art directors. As they were leafing through my portfolio, I would tell them how I used photoshop to do my illustrations. And how I would use Photoshop without the toolbar and double my speed and productivity. This little nugget would get them instantly interested and at least a few of them asked whether I could teach them how to speed up their own use of photoshop. It led to jobs where I would charge $60 an hour training them individually. However, it's not like I was outstanding at Photoshop. For instance, all of the points that we have just covered with layer masks would have been beyond my reach. Even so, I would be able to watch the videos several times, get fluent at the skill, and then in turn be able to teach it. Any topic quickly cascades into sub-topics And sub-topics in turn become a bit of an avalanche as you dig just below the surface. What's extremely exciting when you sit down to write a report, is that you don't need the Terracotta Army of Qin Shi Huang. A report can be extremely powerful with just three-four articles. However, it's still an excellent idea to go into caffeine-land and brainstorm the topics and sub-topics needed. You may use the bare minimum needed for a report, but you can use the others to create more single focus reports in the future. All of this brainstorming has a wonderful series of side effects When you sit down to brainstorm the topics and sub-topics, you realise that you know quite a lot and can write about several topics for your report in detail. However, this very same brainstorming session may be a cause for intimidation. When I was called upon to teach those art directors, I knew a bit of Photoshop, but by no means was I well versed in every facet of the program. For instance, “Selection Layers and Masks” were definitely something that I hadn't learned about. This exposed my weakness and there are two ways to handle any weakness. You can pretend that you were not born with innate Photoshop skills, or you can simply pick up a book or video and learn the skills. I have no inborn skills, as far as I know, so I just learned and taught and learned an taught. To this day, a decent chunk of what I do is something that I've learned along the way. If I find any gaps, well that's what learning is all about isn't it? I learn and then I teach and that is the lesson you can use for your report as well. This learn and teach method is slower, no doubt However, we are all beginners at some point in time and having information to share is not going to be at our fingertips. In such a scenario, it's a better idea to simply use the “learn and teach” method. It's more tedious, but I can assure you that almost everyone has to go through an almost identical method when they run into new material. Not knowing enough about a topic is pretty normal, but what's also normal is that a lot of people intimidate themselves and give up. If you're made of sterner stuff, you'll quickly realise that you can put together a report just by learning about the topic, trying it out yourself and then tying it all together in a nice little PDF, or even a video or audio report. Having a single topic is a great way to focus, if you're creating new material If you've already created content in the past, it's easier to find as well. For instance, if I needed to write about topics like pricing, planning, productivity, etc, it would be quite an easy task to go digging through the archives and finding three-four articles on just one topic. And there you have it You might have to slog a bit if you aren't familiar with the topic or sub-topics, but it's not an earth-shattering task. For instance, I still don't know a lot about layer masks, and that list I got from the Lynda.com site. If I wanted to move deeper into the world of layer masks, I'd have to have access to the site (which I do) and about 43 minutes of learning. Even if I were to go over the videos thrice over, that would still require fewer than two hours of work. But that scenario only arises if you're a complete newbie. If you've been creating content for a while, it's really a matter of collation, some tea or coffee-drinking and you've got yourself a report that's pretty single-minded. It's no army but you don't need an army do you? You don't even need a corps or division, no brigade, regiment, battalion or company. Not even a platoon, squad. Just a section—just 3 or 4 little foot soldiers will do the job just fine, don't you agree? And that brings us to the end of “how to create a report”. Let's review what we've just learned. Summary There are three ways to cook up a quick report. 1) Report that goes from C-A 2) Diverse, Disconnected Topic Report 3) One Topic, Many Angles Report The report that goes from C-A starts at the very end—and yes, three steps are usually enough of a journey for the client. Start with C and work your way back to A because it ensure a result. Anything that you can achieve in three quick steps is a good enough target. Ideally it needs to pertain to something you're selling. For example, if you're in the business of gardening then your report would consist of three steps to get something done quickly and effectively in the garden. You don't want to name the report: “3 steps to a better blah-blah-blah”. It's better to give it a curious title, instead. E.g. The title of the headline report on the Psychotactics site is “Why Headlines Fail” and then it goes on to give three steps within the report, anyway. The C-A report is powerful because it has an end point. However, the diverse, disconnected report seeks no such end-point clarity If anything, it's a bit of a potluck party. You put in various pieces of content that seemingly don't have any sequence or relation to each other, but come under the broad umbrella of a topic. For instance, the podcast series at Psychotactics is called the “Three Month Vacation”. One episode of the podcast can be about pricing, the second about productivity and the third about software. Even though they're quite diverse topics, they're still bound under the topic of “marketing and business”. The concept of potluck that you hear on the podcast can just as easily be a sure-fire method of creating reports. Finally we looked at one topic and many angles Or let's call it topics and sub-topics. Or even sub-sub-topics. A bit of a brainstorm session, and time away from the office can do wonders. Even if you're no pro at the topics or sub-topics, you can quickly spot where you're weak. You can then learn and master the topics, and pass on the knowledge in your own style, tone and language to someone else. In case you're wondering, this isn't plagiarism. Plagiarism is when you simply “photocopy” someone's work and pass it off as your own. This method of learning and teaching is what everyone needs to follow, and it's simply a form of “tracing” or “copying” and then using your own method to get it to your eventual client. It's why yoga teaching aspirants go to yoga training centres, or why we attend workshops and seminars. We learn, so we can teach. Which brings us right back to the yoghurt rice. Remember the recipe? Step 1: Take a cup of cooked rice. Step 2: In a frying pan, pop a teaspoon of mustard seeds and some dry red chillies in oil. Step 3: Pour the oil, mustard seeds and red chillies over the rice and add 1 ½ cup of natural yoghurt. Go try it. You'll love it. Oh, and if you like, keep it in the fridge for an hour or so. It's delicious when it's cold. Bon appétit!
