And I was like, well, how do I separate myself from the sea of sameness?" — Stephanie Garcia [00:02:26 → 00:02:40]Innovative Engagement Strategies: "It's one of those things where you just have to do a pattern interrupt in social media to get people to stop, look, and listen to what it is that you have to say." — Stephanie Garcia [00:03:35 → 00:03:41]Engaging Audiences with Social Media Polls: "So a lot of times I'll do polls. What do you think about this? If you could change one thing about Castmagic, what would it be? And so you get people involved in those conversations." — Stephanie Garcia [00:06:28 → 00:06:36]The Importance of Prep in B2B Livestreaming: "And I think what also makes a B2B livestreaming show suck is if you don't do a tech rehearsal with your talent, right? So, like, all of us, we showed up, we're like, oh, hey, check your mic, right? Because we know that we're going to repurpose this content." — Stephanie Garcia [00:11:59 → 00:12:15]Viral Marketing Success: "And so within that, within 24 hours, we had 178,000 downloads of her book. The client came back and was like, we've never seen this much engagement before. We've done live streams and no one showed up. But how did you get these people to show up? And that's really, that's the fascination fast track." — Stephanie Garcia [00:15:54 → 00:16:10]Successful Live Streaming Strategies: "It's not about the gear. It's about the gears up here. How do you connect and engage with your audience? Create a run of show where, yes, you are going to engage with your audience in real-time, but you're also going to deliver value, and then at that point, hit the live stream button and run with it." — Stephanie Garcia [00:19:59 → 00:20:13]Leveraging Social Media for Discoverability: "Yeah, I would say if you want to leverage the social media platforms, the benefit to it is that it gives you better discoverability. So it's easy for people to find you." — Stephanie Garcia [00:22:01 → 00:22:10]Catering to Different Audience Expertise Levels: "And so knowing how to differentiate your content from beginner, intermediate and advanced is one of the best ways. So I would say, like, hey, hang out with me on YouTube, and this is like your getting started tutorial, but oh my gosh, if you want the full framework and the case studies, then you have to go into the community." — Stephanie Garcia [00:23:35 → 00:23:51]The Power of Longevity in Social Media Content: "Oh, it still lives in perpetuity on social media platforms. So I still have people watching videos from three or four years ago, still wanting to learn how to go live on Facebook." — Stephanie Garcia [00:26:21 → 00:26:26]Show notes powered by Castmagic---Have any questions about the show or topics you'd like us to explore further?Shoot us a DM; we'd love to hear from you.Want the weekly TL;DR of tips delivered to your mailbox?Check out our newsletter here.Follow us for content, clips, giveaways, & updates!Castmagic InstagramCastmagic TwitterCastmagic LinkedIn ---Blaine Bolus - Co-Founder of CastmagicRamon Berrios - Co-Founder of CastmagicStephanie Garcia - Live Streaming Producer at Lights, Camera, Live

Let's talk about digital identity with Heather Flanagan, Principal at Spherical Cow Consulting and David Birch, Principal at 15 Mb, author, advisor and commentator on digital financial services. This is the 100th episode of Let's Talk about Digital Identity – in this special episode two of our most popular guests, Heather Flanagan and David Birch, rejoined the podcast to explore what is exciting them in passwordless, identity wallets and digital money. [Transcript below] "Passwords have got to go. As we're moving to passkeys, I think there's always room for improvement on - even on them. If nothing else, focusing a little bit more on the user experience so that people will have a better understanding of what this means." Heather Flanagan, Principal at Spherical Cow Consulting and choreographer for Identity Flash Mob, comes from a position that the Internet is led by people, powered by words, and inspired by technology. She has been involved in leadership roles with some of the most technical, volunteer-driven organisations on the Internet, including IDPro as Principal Editor, the IETF, the IAB, and the IRTF as RFC Series Editor, ICANN as Technical Writer, and REFEDS as Coordinator, just to name a few. If there is work going on to develop new Internet standards, or discussions around the future of digital identity, she is interested in engaging in that work. Listen Episode 74, where Heather discusses Making Identity Easy for Everyone or connect with Heather on LinkedIn. “The thing that's broken in digital money at the moment, is identity, not the payment bit.” David G.W Birch is an author, advisor and commentator on digital financial services. Principal at 15Mb, his advisory company, he is Global Ambassador for the secure electronic transactions consultancy, Consult Hyperion, Fintech Ambassador for Digital Jersey and Non-Executive Chair at Digiseq Ltd. He is an internationally-recognised thought leader in digital identity and digital money. Ranked one of the top 100 fintech influencers for 2021, previously named one of the global top 15 favourite sources of business information by Wired magazine and one of the top ten most influential voices in banking by Financial Brand, he created one of the top 25 “must read” financial IT blogs and was found by PR Daily to be one of the top ten Twitter accounts followed by innovators (along with Bill Gates and Richard Branson). His latest book “The Currency Cold War—Cash and Cryptography, Hash Rates and Hegemony” (published in May 2020) “paints a fascinating and stimulating picture of the future of the world of digital payments and its possible impact on the wider global and economic orders” – Philip Middleton, OMFIF Digital Monetary Institute. His previous book “Before Babylon, Beyond Bitcoin: From money we understand to money that understands us” was published in June 2017 with a foreword by Andrew Haldane, Chief Economist at the Bank of England. The LSE Review of Books said the book should be “widely read by graduate students of finance, financial law and related topics as well as policy makers involved in financial regulation”. The London Review of Books called his earlier book “Identity is the New Money” fresh, original, wide-ranging and “the best book on general issues around new forms of money”.

Media Maven Christina Nicholson has a lot to say about public relations. More than anything, she has valuable advice for entrepreneurs - on how to promote themselves authentically, confidently and effectively. Christina Nicholson is an award-winning television journalist, course creator, public speaker, podcaster and Founder of the PR agency Media Maven. Christina and her Media Maven team work intimately and exclusively with a select number of high-ticket clients, bringing their public relations goals to fruition through hard work and strategic ad placement. Besides her agency's work with clients, Christina has used her decades of experience in media to create a suite of products for business owners, with various budgets and goals. Entrepreneurs can take a mini bootcamp on her website to improve their PR skills or invest in the Media Mentoring Program course for a full education on how, when, where, and why to use PR strategies to their full advantage. Christina has been featured in Forbes, Fast Company, the Huffington Post, Time, Yahoo!, PR Daily, All Business Experts, on CNN, WTVJ in Miami, WPTV in West Palm Beach, News 12 in New York City, and in many other media outlets. Now on The Business of You, Christina shares her industry's best-kept secrets to help us all get recognized by the right people, at the right time. Treat your business like a business When Christina decided to go out on her own, she thought it would be easy. She started an Upwork account, jumped on LinkedIn and worked around the clock. But for two years, she made herself miserable - until she invested in herself! After exhausting her energy, Christina hired a business coach, who told her to treat her business like an actual…business. Christina had been wearing all the hats - sales person, service provider, marketer and beyond. For the first time, Christina took a step back and considered the future of her company like a CEO. Her coach advised her to hire a team, thinking big-picture and take on more seasoned clients. So many entrepreneurs are guilty of this. In your own business, are you thinking like a CEO? What actionable goals could you set for your business and who could you hire to help you achieve them? Stop getting in your own way When asked for her biggest piece of advice for entrepreneurs, Christina responded immediately with this: Stop getting in your own way. Founders, particularly women, think that they need to wait for perfect conditions to market their businesses. They make excuses and put off PR and media until they think they've achieved success - when their website is perfect, they have a team and they're making “enough” money. But Christina advises: This is backwards! When it comes to PR, she reminds us that it's all about generating new opportunities for growth. Get in front of people before you're “ready,” and big things will happen in your business! Share your wins, everywhere Christina has noticed a bizarre trend in the world of PR, and she's here to encourage you to avoid this popular mistake. After getting PR coverage, she notices that a lot of businesses don't share it. They forget to send out an email about it, make a social media post about it, post it on their website, or even mention it beyond their personal circle of friends. Nobody knows they were on TV, and they don't help get the word out. Avoid this popular PR mistake. If someone promotes you - on their channel, podcast, in their newsletter or magazine, etc - share it far and wide. This is a great opportunity to ask yourself - where was I featured recently, and who have I told about it? Who could I tell about it? Who needs to know about this? Make sure you're celebrating your wins, because it will ultimately catapult you to business success. Quotes “I said, you know what? This is a service-based industry, so I don't need a lot of money to get started. I'll just go on LinkedIn and Upwork and get my own clients! I did that for two years, by myself…and I was freaking miserable.” “It was tough because I was wearing all of the hats. I was doing it all myself - I was doing the marketing, servicing the clients, I was the salesperson. It wasn't until I hired my first business coach that I actually learned about business!” “Everything I do is under the PR umbrella. But there are different products and services depending on where you are in your business, and how much time or money you want to spend making this a part of your marketing strategy.” “I'm the kind of manager I would have wanted. I don't check up on them. As long as you're hitting those goals, I don't care. I don't care what you wear, when you work, where you went to college, how many hours you worked. Is the client happy, and are you happy? Perfect! We just do our jobs. We're all adults. We don't need to be babysat. We just get things done.” “With our clients, we don't have a whole onboarding thing for weeks. We have one call - what are your goals? What do you want to see? What do you want? What is the short term goal and end goal? Then we go and execute that day. All this talking, planning and researching - it has a place! But in PR when we're trying to get you coverage, we don't waste time.” “We give our clients updates every week. It's so important to send them an email every week - this is what we did, this is what worked, this is what didn't work. We think we're gonna go this way next week and we need your help with XYZ.” “Stop telling yourself you're not ready for it. A lot of women do this. They make all kinds of excuses. You're putting the cart before the horse. The way you get more money, a bigger brand, more leads and a bigger email list - you get this by being in front of people. You get the attention first, then the leads come in. So many people get this backwards.” “After you get coverage, please - share it, and share it everywhere! It blows my mind how many people get media coverage and don't put it on their website, don't post it to social media, don't send it to their email list.” Links mentioned in this episode: Are you ready to finally see your name in popular media outlets like Forbes, Inc., and Fast Company?

We all know that relationship-building outside of the inbox is important. In theory, we should be interacting with our contacts via social on a regular basis.
