Podcasts about posting

Posting content but not booking sales calls? This episode breaks down why information alone no longer converts, and shows how to turn content into a predictable client-booking machine. You'll learn how to build a simple content ecosystem, follow a weekly cadence that hits real psychological triggers, and use strategic campaigns with clear hooks and calls to action to move strangers from passive viewers to booked calls, without needing a massive audience.   "So connection is going to be what attracts the right people to you. It's going to be content that resonates with people."   What You'll Learn: Information is a commodity—strategy is what drives conversions: What separates content that converts is how it's structured, sequenced, and tied to a clear outcome, not how much information you give away. You need an ecosystem: social platform, email list, and long-form content working together: A strong ecosystem uses social media for discovery, email for ownership and nurturing, and long-form content for deeper trust and binge consumption. Consistent content should follow four roles: connection, influence, authority, conversion: Each type serves a different psychological purpose—connection builds resonance, influence shifts beliefs, authority establishes expertise, and conversion content tells people exactly what to do next.  Trust is built faster when people consume ~7 hours of your content across multiple touchpoints: Buyers don't convert after one post—they convert after repeated exposure. Short, focused campaigns with strong hooks and clear CTAs are what actually book calls: Calls get booked when content shifts from passive posting to intentional promotion.      Connect with Jason Meland: Email: jason@goliveonlinemastermind.com Website: https://www.growmyvisibility.com/ Instagram: @coachjasonmeland Facebook: Jason Meland - In Demand Coach LinkedIn: Jason Meland

Join Lionel as he dissects the "end of culture" and the absurdity of the modern world. In this chaotic hour, Lionel explores a dystopian future where Meta allows you to post from beyond the grave and AI chatbots fuel domestic abuse. He debates whether robots will eventually replace humans in the Super Bowl and laments the death of adult play. Things take a bizarre turn when a caller recounts finding fetish magazines at a gas station to practice his James Bond impression while eating a Snickers bar. It is a collision of deep sociological questions and late-night lunacy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Most people aren't stuck because they don't know what to do. They're stuck because they're avoiding it.In this episode, Natalie Robison, one of the top leaders in her company, breaks down why so many people stay busy but never build momentum.Posting. Organizing. Training. Planning. But avoiding the one thing that actually grows a business: inviting new people.Natalie gets real about her own fear. Not just fear of rejection, but the fear of someone saying yes and then asking, “Now what?”She shares three simple, practical tips to get out of your own way, stop hiding behind activity, and start doing the real work that moves the needle.If you've ever felt productive but still frustrated, this episode will hit close to home.Because all we KNOW that being busy doesn't pay. Courage does.

If your sales have slowed down, your first thought might be:“It's the market.”“People aren't spending.”“My offer isn't working anymore.” But what I've seen again and again is that what looks like a sales slump is rarely about demand. It's usually about focus. In this episode, I'm unpacking what's actually happening when revenue dips — and why most business owners respond in ways that make it worse. Panic pivoting. Changing offers. Tweaking prices. Posting more. Discounting. When in reality, the issue is often far simpler — and far more within your control.

Isvari Maranwe on Impact-Focused Activism, Citizen Journalism, and Rebuilding Social MediaAmy Pons, founder of Unlock the Magic, interviews Isvari Maranwe—Silicon Valley–raised tech leader and Georgetown-educated cybersecurity attorney—now based in London. Isvari is CEO and founder of YuVoice, a new social media company designed to reward users for tangible impact rather than a follower-driven influencer model, and CEO of The Sentinel by YuVoice, a nonprofit, ad-free, non-paywalled citizen journalism platform building an all-volunteer global press corps. They discuss the tension between professional success and the emotional toll of social justice work, the importance of boundaries, and prioritizing empowering people who want to make a difference over trying to convince those who won't. Isvari shares her view that only about 1% of people truly shape society for good, making it critical to change social defaults and focus energy where it creates measurable impact. Isvari explains that YuVoice has closed a $1 million angel round and will launch in phases with nonprofit partners, focusing on “anti addictive algorithms” and mentally healthy design. The Sentinel's mission is to break global news through local perspectives: “We believe that everybody can tell their story the best.” They critique for-profit media incentives and argue, “media needs to be a nonprofit.” 02:22 What's on Your Heart: Success, Privilege & Staying Resourced03:54 Stop Convincing the Unmoved: Empower the 1% Who Shape Society06:35 From Righteous Rage to Real Impact (and Posting with Intention)13:00 Why Outrage Doesn't Translate to Action (and What Might)18:32 What Happens When No One Wants the Baton?

Posting consistently, telling better stories, doing everything right and still watching your growth stall is frustrating. For this milestone 200th episode, I sat down with Chris Do for a very honest conversation about what actually builds a personal brand when algorithms change and attention is harder than ever to earn. We talked about identity before content, confidence before visibility, and why so many freelance designers and design business owners feel invisible online even when their work is strong. I also shared my own experiences as a creative CEO navigating content, positioning, and showing up as a brand and web designer without burning out or oversharing. This conversation is less about hacks and more about clarity, intention, and building something that lasts if you care about how to get graphic design clients and grow a sustainable design business.You will learn:What most freelance designers miss before they start posting onlineWhy good content is not enough to attract the right clients anymoreHow to build a personal brand that feels cohesive instead of scatteredWhat to share and what to keep private as a creative CEOHow to think long term as a design business owner Grab a cup of coffee, your notes, and get ready to rethink how you show up, why you create content, and what kind of brand you actually want to build.About Chris DoChris Do is a self described loud introvert, Emmy award winning designer and educator, and the founder of The Futur, an education and content platform at the intersection of design, business, and personal branding. He is widely known for helping creatives build clarity, confidence, and sustainable businesses by strengthening their personal brand, communication, and thinking.

In this sharp and practical episode, Bart sits down with Brenton Nickles, founder of JDS1 Marketing, to break down what actually works in modern marketing — and what doesn't. Brent shares his journey from traditional marketing roles to building his own agency, helping businesses clarify their message, strengthen their brand, and execute consistently. He explains why most marketing efforts fail (lack of strategy, impatience, inconsistency), how attention is earned through value, and why long‑term positioning always beats short‑term tactics. This conversation cuts through the noise and offers a grounded, disciplined approach to marketing that leaders and entrepreneurs can immediately apply.Major Takeaways / LearningsMarketing is not a one‑time campaign — it's a system. Sustainable growth requires consistency.Clarity beats creativity. If people don't understand what you do, clever branding won't save you.Most businesses quit too early. Results compound over time — not overnight.Strategy must come before tactics. Posting content without direction wastes energy.Attention is currency. You earn it by solving real problems, not by being loud.Brand is built through repetition. Showing up consistently builds trust.Measure what matters. Data should inform decisions, not overwhelm them.Positioning determines growth. When you clearly define who you serve and how, momentum follows.Memorable Quotes“Marketing isn't magic — it's discipline.”“Clarity always beats clever.”“If you're not consistent, you're invisible.”“Strategy first. Tactics second.”“Attention has to be earned.”“You don't build trust in a week.” Why It Matters / How to Use ItThis episode is a reality check for entrepreneurs, leaders, and marketers who want results without the hype. Brent Nickles reinforces that growth doesn't come from chasing trends — it comes from clarity, discipline, and long‑term commitment. If you're frustrated by inconsistent results or overwhelmed by marketing options, this conversation offers a practical framework: define your strategy, commit to consistency, measure progress, and play the long game. Success in marketing — like success in leadership — is rarely flashy. It's built through disciplined repetition and clear positioning.Connect with Brenton over LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brenton-david-nickles/

Your "rent" is no longer a physical storefront—it's your online presence.Don't Take Anything Personally: Whether it's compliments or criticism, your worth isn't determined by others' opinions. This protects you from emotional rollercoaster decision-making.Mood Follows Action: Waiting to feel motivated means you'll never move forward. Commitment shifts energy, not the other way around.Your Brand Mitigates Risk: Consistency across all touchpoints (not just social media) creates the security buyers need to invest in you.Saturation is a Mindset Problem: The real issue isn't too many voices—it's unclear expectations and resistance to reality.Memorable Quotes"If you want freedom in your life, examine your expectations. Most unhappiness comes from subliminal expectations we never agreed upon.""It's a volume game. You have to be on demand when the buyer is ready to consume—not when you feel like posting.""Your brand is your rent in 2025. Just like brick-and-mortar businesses paid for storefronts, we pay through visibility.""Entrepreneurship is ego death after ego death. The post didn't perform well? That's your ego thinking everyone's watching.""Everyone is carrying a story we know nothing about.

In this Episode, when tragedy strikes, social media usually explodes. Profile frames change.   Hashtags trend.  Influencers cry on cue and share flags!  Last weekend, everyone was talking   about Love vs Hate and Bad Bunny!  A few weeks ago, it was all about ICE and Minnesota. And yet, this week, when it comes to Tumbler Ridge, B.C, the national timeline feels… quiet. So what's going on?

If your content sounds polished but forgettable and keeps attracting likes instead of premium clients, this episode breaks down why being "better" isn't enough anymore. The speaker exposes the three biggest content traps coaches fall into and explains how sounding like yourself, building a clear worldview, and creating from real experiences (not recycled templates or AI prompts) is the real competitive advantage for attracting high-level clients in 2026 and beyond.   "I stopped trying to sound like a professional marketer, and I stopped worrying if every post would perform, and I started to write like I would talk to my wife over coffee. And that's when everything started to change. The right people started reaching out to me."   In this episode: Vanilla, recycled content repels premium clients. When your content sounds like everyone else's, it blends into the noise and attracts peers or tire-kickers instead of buyers who value original thinking. Posting more or polishing harder won't fix weak positioning. More volume or perfect wording doesn't matter if the message lacks clarity, conviction, and a distinct point of view. Steal principles, not posts—study why content works. The goal isn't to copy hooks or formats, but to understand the underlying ideas—storytelling, tension, belief-shifting and apply them in your own voice. A clear worldview beats any framework or method. Frameworks are easy to replicate, but your beliefs, values, and way of seeing the problem create real differentiation and trust. Unfiltered, honest opinions make content memorable and magnetic. When you stop watering down your thoughts to sound "professional," you attract aligned clients and naturally repel the wrong ones, which is exactly the point.

In this episode, we're debriefing our recent Skills Workshop — It was everything birth education should be.We're talking about:• Why we believe in failing fast to fail forward• The “ahh” moments when the pelvis finally clicks• The creative simulators we built to actually understand physiology• Trauma responses and how embodied practice changes everything• Why how you practice is how you show upAt HJ, we don't just teach information.We train skillsets.Because reading about birth is not the same as holding birth.Social media has created a generation of loud birth voices — but personality is not the same thing as embodied presence. Posting infographics doesn't make you a birth keeper. Memorizing stats doesn't make you safe in the room.Being a birth servant requires:– Hands-on anatomical understanding– Nervous system regulation– The ability to read a room– Trauma-informed awareness– Humility– Real practice– Real feedback– Real peopleAt our workshop, we practiced how we intend to show up.We spoke to the models and dolls the way we speak to women and babies.Links for show notes:hearthmotherministries.com/journeyfirst-to-know listprivate communityemail us: hello@hearthmotherjourney.comConnect:Email us to say hi: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠holywildbirth@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Put in a request for future topics and/or submit a question for future Q&A episodes: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fill out the form⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apply to tell your birth story on the podcast: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Holy Wild Birth Podcast : Guest Application⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hang out with us and other Holy Wild Women in our private community (off Facebook): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Rooted in Eden PMA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Become a holy, wild birthkeeper with us inside ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hearthmother Journey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠From Lauren:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Midwifery consults: Email  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠rootedinedenpma@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠From Brooke:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Trust God, Trust Birth Workshop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - a 5-part high-level roadmap to a confident home birth (pay what you can)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Faith-Filled Home Birth Workshop ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- a free, 3-part video series delivered to your inbox⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Embrace Birth Journey ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- comprehensive and holistic faith-based home birth preparation (courses + private community)Intro and Outra Music Credit -Betty Dear By ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Blue Dot Sessions⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ is licensed under a ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Creative Commons License⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 

Most people get told "no" and spiral. Giuliano Massarelli gets told "no" and turns it into content, attention, and sales. In this episode of The Next Level Podcast, Jeremy Miner sits down with Giuliano Massarelli, known as The Wolf of Insurance, to break down how he sells life insurance through his DMs, why he posts at extreme volume to stay omnipresent, and how he built momentum fast by treating selling like a skills game.

Most people get told “no” and spiral. Giuliano Massarelli gets told “no” and turns it into content, attention, and sales. In this episode of The Next Level Podcast, Jeremy Miner sits down with Giuliano Massarelli, known as The Wolf of Insurance, to break down how he sells life insurance through his DMs, why he posts at extreme volume to stay omnipresent, and how he built momentum fast by treating selling like a skills game. They talk tonality, verbal pacing, using energy to control emotional states, and the simple mirror and smile habit that changes how you sound on the phone. If you want to build a personal brand that becomes a real pipeline, and learn how to stay confident through rejection, this episode is the playbook.

At 21 years old, Alex Hashash was managing 15 people and 18,000 hours of temporary nurses every single week.By his early thirties, he had 120 staff. Most of them offshore.But it didn't start with a playbook. It started with 3 am phone calls, traumatic Blackberry ringtones, and weekend rotas that never seemed to end.When his company decided to build an offshore capability, Alex didn't manage it from a distance.He moved to India for eight months to build the team from scratch.Night shifts. Culture clashes. Teaching people who'd never worked in recruitment how to fill nursing shifts at 2 am UK time.He's spent over a decade learning what separates the founders who make offshore work from those who give up after six months.Most treat it like a cost-cutting exercise. They hire one remote person, hope for the best, and blame the model when it fails.Alex took the opposite approach."If someone makes a mistake, it's really easy to blame them because they're so far away. But if that was a colleague on your desk, would you be as harsh?"The problem isn't the talent. It's the leadership.This week on The RAG Podcast, Alex tells the full story.We cover:Why most recruitment founders fail at offshore within six months How to build culture when your team is thousands of miles away The biggest mistake UK consultants make when managing offshore staff Why hiring people without recruitment experience often delivers the best ROI How to structure probation and promotional targets for offshore hires The leadership buy-in you need before going offshore How he scaled to 120 staff with the majority based offshoreThis isn't theory. It's a decade of hard-won experience across three continents.If you've ever wondered whether offshore could work for your agency - or why your previous attempt failed - this episode has the blueprint.--------------------------------------------------------------------Episode Sponsor: AtlasAdmin is a massive waste of time.

On this segment of Evan & Tiki, the guys dive into the latest reports from Adam Schefter regarding potential NFL rule changes. Evan and Tiki debate the pros and cons of allowing teams to trade draft picks up to five years in advance and whether the league should finally replace the onside kick with a 4th-and-13 play from the 25-yard line. Then, the show goes off the rails when a caller claims Patriots QB Drake Maye is already "leaps and bounds" better than Eli Manning after just two seasons. Evan loses his cool, defending Eli's clutch legacy against what he calls "stat-padding" from the Patriots' young star. Also in this hour: St. John's Expectations: With the Johnnies sitting at 19-5, is it "Elite Eight or Bust" for Rick Pitino? Posting and Toasting: The crew plays their favorite tweet game, featuring debates on parallel parking skills and Al Dukes' bizarre requirements for watching Olympic swimming. The Return of Adam Gase: Reaction to the news that the former Jets head coach is back in the league working with Justin Herbert—and why the framing of his resume drove Evan crazy.

What happens when you finally get everything you asked for… and realize your business can't hold it yet? In this powerful and honest conversation, Sheila Bella sits down with Robin Miller, a curly hair specialist who went from barely surviving in her business to becoming so booked she had to stop posting—not because demand wasn't there, but because capacity wasn't. Robin shares her real journey from making $2–3K months, working in a commission salon, and questioning whether entrepreneurship was even for her… to hitting consistent $10K months in less than a year after fully implementing Pretty Rich Bosses strategies. But this episode isn't just about getting booked. It's about confidence. Leadership. Clarity. Faith. And becoming the kind of woman who can hold the blessing without collapsing under it. You'll hear what actually changed when Robin stopped posting randomly, started educating, invested in coaching, and allowed her faith to shape how she shows up in business—without apology. If you think being fully booked is the finish line… this episode will completely shift how you see growth.

In this clarity-packed episode of the Transform My Dance Studio Podcast, host Olivia Mode-Cater sits down with DSOA's Social Media Coach and Manager Sophie Mckie to unpack what's actually broken about social media for dance studios and why working harder isn't the answer.  From Canva templates and "pretty feeds" to random posting and constant second-guessing, Olivia and Sophie reveal why most studio owners feel burned out by social media — even when they're doing "everything right." This episode reframes social media as a system, not a chore, and shows studio owners how to translate the incredible work happening inside their studios into content that builds trust, connection, and enrollment.  You'll hear:  Why parents don't enroll based on aesthetics or templates  The difference between having a content problem and a translation problem  Why random posting leads to burnout (and poor results)  How a simple content system removes decision fatigue  What "human content" actually looks like for dance studios  Why social media should support your business goals — not distract from them  How systems make delegation possible without chaos  What changes when you stop chasing trends and start building intention  If social media has ever felt like one more thing on your plate, or one more place where your effort doesn't match your results, this conversation will help you finally see why.  Join our growing community of people just like you inside our free Facebook group. Click here to join!  Watch our video episodes and subscribe on YouTube here.

Megan chats with Maria Lucey about how she built a profitable food brand through YouTube alone and why long form video is one of the smartest growth moves food bloggers can make right now. Maria Lucey is a Registered Dietitian and content creator who launched her YouTube channel at the end of 2023 and grew it to over 44,000 subscribers in just over two years. Her channel focuses on long-form nutrition education and practical recipes that help people meet their health goals. Although she didn't have a blog when she started YouTube, Maria quickly recognized how the two platforms could complement each other and began building her blog soon after. Today, YouTube is her second-largest traffic source after Google and has helped her grow an email list of more than 6,000 subscribers, primarily through YouTube opt-ins, despite her blog still being relatively small. She monetizes through brand partnerships, YouTube and Mediavine ad revenue, and digital products. Maria is passionate about showing that anyone can start from zero - she began with no SEO or camera experience and built her platform through consistency and learning along the way. She also emphasizes how well blogging skills transfer to YouTube, and recently was flown to Los Angeles to collaborate with some of the platform's most established creators. What if you stopped chasing every platform and committed fully to one that actually builds trust, authority, and income? In this episode, Maria Lucey shares exactly how she grew a YouTube channel to nearly 50,000 subscribers in just over two years, monetized early, built a massive email list, and replaced her full time clinical job without relying on SEO or social media trends. This conversation breaks down what really works on YouTube for food creators and why consistency beats perfection every time. Key Topics Discussed: Future Consistency beats talent every time: Posting one video per week built momentum, skill, and confidence long before results showed up. YouTube rewards commitment not volume: Growth came from showing up weekly, not from posting more often or gaming the algorithm. Your first videos will be bad and that is the point: Improvement only happens through repetition and publishing before you feel ready. Monetization can happen faster than you think: Maria reached YouTube monetization within six months by focusing on watch time and value. Email lists convert extremely well from YouTube: Simple lead magnets tied directly to video topics drove consistent list growth. Packaging matters as much as content: Titles and thumbnails determine whether your video gets clicked at all. Curiosity outperforms keywords early on: Intrigue driven titles helped videos get discovered before shifting to SEO later. Connect with Maria Lucey Website | Instagram | YouTube
