Co-Host Matt Halloran (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/matt) Most women would believe most of us as men suck at listening. Yet, all of them seem to be looking for a man who knows how. All that can mean, gentlemen, is the first of us to get this skill right will get the girl. So then, if this is so freaking important, why do we tend to mess it up? My first-time guest Matt Halloran, author of 'Shut The F Up And Listen', has it all figured out. After this episode, so will you. First off, what exactly is engaged listening? Next, what basic skill is the art of listening predicated upon...and why? There is a 'hardwired' mindset within most of us as men that causes us to miss out on opportunities to listen. How do we rewire ourselves for success? Are there situations where it's patently unfair to expect us as men to just 'shut the f up and listen' to the woman in our life? What is the ultimate positive reason to actually pause, breath and listen to a woman...especially if you want her to stick around? Shifting gears a bit, listen in as Matt shares his #1 first date tip...which is really something else. What are the most powerful three words on a first date? When on a date with a woman, what should your seating arrangement be? Discover why this matters more than you might have ever thought. Overall a great show that's both informative and entertaining, for sure. This month's Masterclass For Men is called Charm and Charisma.

In today's episode, Matt is joined by Matt Halloran from ProudMouth to explore the concept of unapologetically being yourself in your content. This authenticity is the accelerator for influence - the only marketing that truly resonates in today's world. Matt Halloran emphasizes the shift from selling to connecting and that you must build influence that compels people to want to buy, and to do that, you must embrace your authentic self. Authenticity not only avoids burnout but also solidifies your place within your industry. In a world of information overload, regurgitating generic content is just noise, so you want to know your audience deeply, understand their real problems, and address them with passion. This approach creates genuine connections that transform everything. Matthew Jarvis and Matt Halloran will also discuss the vital art of listening. Whether it's through hosting guests on your podcast or interacting with clients, active listening shapes success. This trait differentiates great financial planners from the rest. The wisdom to listen brings about transformational change. https://bit.ly/3YDQXb0

So I invited him on the show and he graciously said yes!I had an inkling that we would get along, we share the same values, we share a child like spirit that probably gets us into more trouble than not. But in this wonderful conversation with Matt he tells us about his life, the early days. The serendipitous moment of choosing, one day, to reach out to a man called Ron Carson.

Matt has always been on the cutting edge of marketing. His book “The Social Media Handbook for Financial Advisors” was the first book about how advisors could use social media to grow their business. It caused a lot of ruckus with compliance departments and advisors who thought social media was a passing fad. Today, Matt is upsetting the industry again. ProudMouth, the company he co-founded, is directly attacking canned content and market commentaries as marketing pieces. Why? Because these lazy attempts at marketing are POS’s that don’t allow advisors to get their voices heard. They reinforce Wall Street misinformation, not main street expertise.

When is the last time that your ideal client or prospective client invited you into their home in their quiet time?  Most entrepreneur's would answer that question with “Never”. This is why Published Author's latest guest Matthew Halloran is a huge believer in the power of podcasts, particularly for authors.  “A book is finite. You've got 300 pages or 200 pages,” says Matthew. “When the reader is done, they close the book and put it back on the shelf.”  However, with a podcast a potential client knows that another episode is coming out next week or next month, and this allows an author to continue the relationship.  Matthew is a partner with Proudmouth, an influence accelerator agency focusing on podcasting for authors. Proundmouth's mission is to free businesses from the torment of sales.   “We love working with authors because the call to action is to download a book, buy the book, go to Amazon,” explains Matthew.  “I know that if I'm going to get you to listen to my podcast, if you'll buy my book, the probability of you becoming a client is very high, because you've opted in steps to engage with me.  “If I can get you to engage with me socially, the probability of me ever having to sell . . . I don't sell anymore. People listen to our podcast. People who have purchased my book, The Social Media Handbook For Financial Advisors. They follow us on social media, they engage with us. Then they just call and they say: ‘Hey, I'm ready to go'.”  BOOK CHAPTERS ARE STARTING POINT FOR PODCAST EPISODES  Matthew says most people have chapters in their books, and these can be turned into podcast episodes. In turn, the episodes can be turned into social media posts, making it fairly straightforward for authors to utilize podcasting as a way to accelerate their influence.   Matthew explains that most authors and their books get a lot of attention when the book is first published. But a book “doesn't have a lot of the longevity that we would really want. We believe that podcasting is the most effective way to achieve longevity.”  Matthew recommends a minimum of two podcasts a month for a business owner. Those podcasts turn into one social media post per day.  Proudmouth works with a lot of financial advisors who've used our services, had already written a book, we've got one that wrote a book based off of his podcast, and they use the book as their main foundation for all of the content.   UNCERTAIN ABOUT PODCASTING? JUST JUMP IN!  Matthew believes that the biggest thing that stops people from podcasting is overthinking. He says when he was writing his first book he was told he'd need to write anywhere from 5000 to 10,000 words a day. He knows this is intimidating, but with podcasting, it's simply hit record and start talking.   “Podcasting is not only not that complicated, but that's what people like,” says Matthew, noting that host Josh Steimle has found success with the Published Author podcast because it's a conversation-based, interview-based podcast, a format he recommends.   “I'm not a huge fan of solo casts,” adds Matthew. “You have to have a lot of production behind it to keep people's attention for 30-plus minutes. People like to feel like they're hearing and eavesdropping into a personal conversation. The more personal you can make the conversation about whatever your topic is, the more passionate people are going to be about your podcast.”  He also says that finding a niche is very important. “Joe Rogan is only successful because of the 25 years of work that he did before he went behind the microphone. You're not going to be the next Joe Rogan. You need to do podcasting because you love it.”  Matthew adds that with passion behind the podcast, along with a microfocused topic, an audience will grow naturally.   Finally, he adds that the best podcasts are entertaining, utilize storytelling, and offer listeners a chance to learn something, because most people go to podcasts to learn something new. Not least, a podcast episode must have a call to action.   LINKS Twitter LinkedIn Proudmouth SUBSCRIBE TO THE PUBLISHED AUTHOR PODCAST  If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or anywhere else you listen to podcasts.
