Send us a textIn this solocast episode, On Top of PR host Jason Mudd responds to a fan letter about tips for pitching to podcasts. Tune in to learn more!Five things you'll learn from this episode:1. Do your research — know the show2. Pitch uniqueness and expertise3. Follow up4. Avoid common mistakes5. Preparation and promotion matters Quotables“It's ultra-important to consume the podcast before pitching to understand its focus.” — @JasonMudd9 “When you send a pitch, provide some context about who your expert is. A link to their LinkedIn profile would be great. If they have a common name like John Smith, maybe include a photo of what they look like so when we're doing our due diligence, we can easily find them.” — @JasonMudd9 “You'd be better off spending time crafting one great pitch than spending a little time on hundreds of pitches and getting a bunch of no's. Double down on the shows that have the right audience, the right topic, and the right fit.” — @JasonMudd9 “Come up with a really good topic — something unique that your guest has a provocative, contrarian, or unique point of view on. I'm looking for something that really pops and resonates with our audience.” — @JasonMudd9 “It might be easy to say it's easier to pitch a podcast than it is a major news outlet, but you've got to keep in mind there are big-time podcasts out there that are just as in demand as any mainstream, tier-one media outlet.” — @JasonMudd9 If you enjoyed this episode, please take a moment to share it with a professional colleague or friend.

In this episode of the SALTovation podcast, we speak with Florian Hanslik, a seasoned tax professional specializing in VAT. Transitioning from a rich background in politics to becoming an indirect tax expert, Florian discusses how his international upbringing and previous work with the European Parliament seeded his deep interest in global tax systems. Florian discusses the importance of understanding VAT in different countries, the role of comprehensive networks, and the need for businesses to be proactive in managing their VAT obligations, especially in an era of rapid e-commerce growth. Florian also notes significant future changes, particularly in the taxation of streamlined events, and underlines the necessity for companies to stay ahead of evolving tax regulations.Key Takeaways:Career Transition and Passion: Florian shares his journey from a political background to VAT specialization, inspired by his love for internationalism and global work environments.Importance of Networks: Building a reliable network of tax professionals globally is crucial for effectively managing VAT obligations across different regions.Evolving VAT Landscape: The rise of e-commerce has significantly impacted VAT regulations, requiring businesses to stay adaptive and informed about international tax laws.Future of VAT Compliance: Upcoming changes in 2025, especially concerning digitally streamed events, will require global businesses to reassess their VAT strategies and ensure compliance.Proactive Tax Planning: Florian emphasizes the importance of early and ongoing dialogue with tax experts to avoid the pitfalls of late compliance and unanticipated tax obligations.Quotables"It's wonderful talking with the companies, understanding the issues and the questions they have. When you understand the VAT system in one country, you can use it in all the other countries. It's everywhere, more or less working the same, but with some local specifics.” -Florian Hanslik [08:05]"E-commerce platforms are now being taxed and marketplaces are taxed. Now we have big changes coming in 2025 where events that are streamlined are being taxed when it's streamlined to a private individual. So if there's an event in the U.S and somebody sitting in Switzerland is participating at this event because it is streamlined and they are paying for this, then this event organizer has to register in Switzerland and has to challenge VAT.” -Florian Hanslik [15:30]ConnectSubscribe on your favorite podcast app here.Follow us on LinkedIn and YouTube.Talk to a Tax Advocate Today!

We are hoping to develop good models that show people how to do it well and do it right.” -Nancy Prosser [10:03]“The essence to me of those projects are studying these areas to see, okay, what's going on in the economy on this front, what are the states doing or not doing and how, you know, collectively with, again, that stakeholder input, can we perhaps make recommendations that will help everybody do it more easily.” -Nancy Prosser [19:05]ConnectSubscribe on your favorite podcast app here.Follow us on LinkedIn and YouTube.Talk to a Tax Advocate Today!

In today's episode we're joined by Meg Young, a seasoned professional in the field of PR and influencer marketing. With an extensive background from top beauty agencies in New York to leading PR for notable cosmetics brands in Los Angeles, Meg brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. Her consultancy, Meg Young Media Group, reflects a deep understanding of the industry she's shaped over the years. In this episode, we navigate the complexities of influencer partnerships and the evolution of these relationships from transactional engagements to meaningful, lasting collaborations. Meg shed's light on the significance of trust, repetition in messaging, and the shift from focusing solely on high-tier influencers to recognizing the value of micro-influencers and their authentic engagement with audiences. KEY POINTS: 15:13 Knowing influencers personally is crucial for partnerships. 19:03 Influencer impact varies based on strategy, brand, platforms. 23:52 Frequent social media scrolling to connect professionally. 30:09 Identifying non-traditional influencers for brand promotions. 33:27 Influence to change thoughts and actions positively. QUOTABLES: "It's not just about a paycheck and slapping something up there. We know that it's going to be really quality and also somebody that we want to work with. I think just like an employer wants to hire somebody that's going to be a long term partner for a brand and somebody who really works well with other team members, I think it's really very similar. You want to work with somebody you enjoy working with, who's respectful, who's professional.” — Meg Young "What I'm seeing now with brands is the repetition of the messaging that is really converting to sales, which I would say is probably most brands' number one priority. They want awareness and therefore sales ultimately resulting from that." — Meg Young "PR should not be, you should never invest in PR if you're expecting to see the return on your investment three times over. It's about that brand awareness, it's about creating that halo effect, and then sales will result from that." — Meg Young GUEST RESOURCES: Linked In | Meg Young RESOURCES: [FREE] Are you a content creator ready to take your brand collaborations to new heights?

The power and potential of AI for authority businesses, even in use cases where pundits insist it will decimate business models.Some of the new tools (that you can use right now) that innovators are developing for experts, authorities and soloists.Why using AI for first drafts may be the immediate best use of AI for experts and authorities.New uses of AI in the authority space: automated transcription, voice replication and first-draft content generation from tweets and hashtags to turning podcasts into book drafts. The potential of AI to leverage your soloist business, including taking tasks you used to pay for or do yourself off your plate entirely.Quotables“It's like this thing you can see on the horizon. And it's like, are you going to paddle out and ride it or just stay on the beach, nice and comfy?”—JS“I don't have to be a tech bro to figure this out…this is achingly simple.”—RM “The power of that (AI) for someone who is trying to lead a revolution or spread a big idea or lead a mission—especially a soloist—it's jaw-dropping.”—JS“It's dangerous to be resistant to new ideas. Doesn't mean you're going to embrace them ever, but just being flat out resistant usually is not a great long-term strategy for your business.”—RM“Let's say that it takes half of your time to do first drafts, and you could increase your productivity by like, say, double. And you could take on twice as many clients working the same amount of time as you currently work.”—JS“This is about getting a first draft. As a writer…your client doesn't care where it came from. What they care about is that it works for their brand or their campaign, or whatever they're hiring you to do.”—RM “It's kind of like I have a first drafter, like an intern type of employee who understands my stuff and can do a good first pass.”—JS“If I can get clients to something that is going to cut the amount of time they spend and increase their profits, hello! I want that at the top of my list for my practice.”—RMLinkshttps://hello.podium.page/blog/convert-your-podcast-to-a-book-with-podbook-by-podiumhttps://thebusinessofauthority.simplecast.com/episodes/seth-godinhttps://www.podcastshownotes.ai/https://www.getmunch.com/https://www.chatcsv.co/https://www.stfo.io/ffbihttps://www.descript.com/https://www.midjourney.com/https://beta.elevenlabs.io/
How to think about sunk costs—and the cultural and emotional messages around abandoning your “thing”.Evaluating opportunity costs—how to know when it's time to quit to free up resources for other things.The value of asking for outside input before making large investments—and how to get it.Why setting kill criteria right at the start of your new investments (and not well into the project) may be your best move.The cultural and emotional aspects of quitting that no one talks about, but pretty much everyone experiences.Quotables“It's always easier to see when you think someone else should quit something. It's like, you've been trying to become an actor for 40 years and you've had one walk on part. I think it might be time to quit.”—JS“I'm thinking of something that I dropped and, duh, it didn't work because I didn't do any freaking research to make sure anybody even wanted this thing.”—RM “If you've only got a few chips on the table, it's no big deal. It's just like, eh, this is an experiment, didn't work out. And if you keep doing those, eventually one is gonna be not crickets. One is gonna be take my money.”—JS“The right people will say yes to a call or some kind of an interaction. And if they won't, then it doesn't matter how good your idea is—then you need to spend some time getting these people to want to take your calls...”—RM“If you think quitting is for losers, maybe reframe that in your mind in terms of knowing when to quit.”—JS“Fear is what keeps people in terrible jobs, in terrible relationships, in businesses that don't fit them, in roles that really are bad for them. It's that fear of…but what do I do next?”—RM “The type of goal that you have can make it easier or harder to know what the kill criteria is or are.”—JS“So much is possible, if we allow ourselves not to stick with everything that we start.”—RM
Why navigating the dip (the desert you have to cross to get to Mecca) is so much easier when you have decided to be the best in the world.What does “best in the world” mean for you—and what are you willing to commit to to achieve it?How that decision translates to revenue and picking the right next moves—even (especially) when they're hard.Choosing where to place your bets when faced with turning point decisions.Why the “glorious quest” nature of some missions allows you to tap into energy you didn't even know you had to get through obstacles.Quotables“It is sort of a call to arms to be more than mediocre.”—JS“The dip is kind of like the desert that you have to cross to get to Mecca. And on the other side are all the riches you get from doing the hard, dirty, nasty work of the dip.”—RM“If you're spending all of your time doing this thing, you need to have a way to put Cheerios in the bowl.”—JS“You're willing to do it because it's worth it. It's worth it in terms of your emotional connection to the outcome. It's worth it in terms of the transformations you deliver to your ideal people. It's worth it in terms of the business you can build for yourself and the revenue that you can make.”—RM“It's like every decision you make is a bet. There's no guarantee, right? So it's a bet.”—JS“It's not like you only have one chance in your life to do this one big thing. You have multiple, multiple chances.”—RM“It's just going to come back to…focusing down on demand that is so specific that you can reasonably decide to be the best in the world at this very specific thing and then use the excitement of that to carry you through whatever dips you encounter (which you will).”—JS“You're not like the Renaissance person who knows a lot about a few things and a little bit about a lot. You're someone with deep knowledge—and that makes you really valuable.”—RMLINKSThe Dip by Seth Godin

Why right now is the best time ever to make a significant contribution to the change you want to see in your world.The importance of focusing on the smallest viable audience to accomplish significant work.How to transform your work into your art (hint: it includes the story you tell yourself about where you're going).Why “soft skills” need to be considered as “real skills”—and why they are often far more valuable than skills that can be easily measured.What to tell yourself to push past imposter syndrome.Quotables“It's way more likely that adroit committed, passionate, smart people are going to realize they have more tools than anyone on Earth ever had before.”—SG“What I'm trying to help undo is industrial brainwashing and remind people that significance comes from making a change in the world.”—SG “I've done more than 200 projects in my career. I've never missed a budget and I have never missed a deadline. And the reason is because when I run outta time or I run outta money, I'm done.”—SG“The key to significant work, particularly for the soloist you're talking about, is understanding the power of the smallest viable audience. The goal cannot be the biggest possible audience, ‘cuz that will water down your work and wreck it.”—SG“Part of my contribution is helping people tell themselves a story so they can transform parts of their day from work to art.”—SG“Real skills are honesty, generosity, leadership, connection, charisma, creativity, a sense of humor.”—SG “We have filled our lives with dangerous, ineffective proxies. Things we measure that look like they're gonna give us a hint as to what we're gonna get, but they don't.”—SG“People say how do I get rid of imposter syndrome? And I say you can't. And that's a good thing because feeling like an imposter is a symptom that A, you're not a sociopath, and B, that you're actually doing something difficult. Something important, something that might not work, something you can't prove because you're leading.”—SGLinksThe Song of Significance The Carbon Almanac

Why it's more important for your target market to be specific than small.What happens when you truly understand your group of target clients and buyers.How to think about the revenue model you might build to serve your targets (and one incredible real-life example).What changes in your business when you get specific about who you're targeting.How a handful of experts niched successfully into specific—but not small—markets.Quotables“It's much more important for your target market to be specific than it is to be small.”—JS“If we can substitute specific for small, maybe it cracks through a psychological barrier to niching.”—RM“It's almost a revelation how much easier everything gets when the group is specific enough that you can understand them.”—JS“We can also look at the other end (from bespoke services), where you can create a system…that meets that (serious need), and you make up for what you lose on price in volume.”—RM“At the beginning to get traction, to establish really solid, predictable cashflow, a great approach is to pick a very specific market that you know inside out and then serve some existing demand.”—JS“You don't start big—you start specific.”—RM“She can speak with like comical specificity to her target audience about the things that are going through their minds.”—JS“When it (getting specific) works, it's a thing of beauty.”—RM
Why time is a cost when you're selling expertise, but doesn't need to factor directly into your pricing strategy.When to track your time—and what to do with what you learn.Evaluating the quality of the time you're spending on client work—your personal happiness factor.Negotiating with contractors for non-time based fees on joint projects (and one cautionary tale).Quotables“It (time) is our cost, right? So you can't just ignore your costs, but… it's like you just don't want to be setting your price based on your cost. You wanna set your prices based on the value.”—JS“You probably won't pay so much attention to your time unless something starts to feel off. Your spidey sense will start tingling when things are going off the rails.”—RM “What's the point of tracking all of this, measuring all of this if you're not gonna use it to make a decision?”—JS“Client profile “A” gets a yes—I'm happy to work with you, here's the price. Let's go. Client “B” gets a eh. I don't think we're a fit.”—RM“Once you're good at what you do, billing for your time is leaving money on the table.”—JS“I would negotiate a price with the consultant to do Project X as we define it together—then I don't care how many hours they work.”—RM “That billable hour concept—it infects the whole organization.”—JS“How can I make the hours that I'm spending on work happier? How can I just enjoy this more? Because that's the freedom that we get as soloists—we get to create our own reality.”—RM

When it's time to develop a new strategy (or pivot from the old one).How to use your strategy as a filtering system to evaluate and choose the right tactics.Using themes to focus your activities for the year.Punching through an income plateau with new strategy and tactics.Quotables“It was like I had a team of people that just did what they were supposed to do.”—JS“Your strategy is like a filtering system—there's a gazillion things we can do in any moment but if we're filtering through a strategy, we're much more likely to be productive.”—RM“Tactics without strategy is a disaster.”—JS“You've got this litmus test of the strategy to say, okay, does this tactic align with my strategy?”—RM“A strategy automatically has risk. If your strategy can't fail, it's not a strategy.”—JS“What are your people working on? What are the buzzwords they're using? What are the challenges that they're facing?”—RM“Part of my overall mission does point me to reaching people who are younger and younger. I even have a children's book sketched out that illustrates the insanity of hourly billing.”—JS“If you've been at an income plateau for a while, and nothing you do seems to punch through—that's when you need a new theme for the year to shake up your tactics.”—RMLinksGood Strategy Bad Strategy A More Useful Definition Of Strategy
In this episode, Alechia and Dani let you in on a little bit of girl talk and discuss the topics that may not always be politically correct on air. And today's gossip is all about red flags! From thin eyebrows to a lack of effort, tune in as your hosts share their yellow cautionary flags and the red flags that send them running for the hills. KEY POINTS: - What do you do when you see a red flag? - Tough love does not mean abuse! - Why do we make excuses for people's lack of effort? - Is it difficult to be happy for others when you're not happy? - Gaslighting and love bombing QUOTABLES: “It's important for women to be able to identify red flags and also identify what your reactions are and if that is the healthiest reaction to when you see a red flag.” “I think it's a red flag when somebody always wants to point out what's wrong with you. And then never what's right. That is a red flag, and it's not out of love. We have to come out of this mindset that people who love us are cruel to us.” PRODUCTS / RESOURCES: For more info, visit their website: triggeredafpodcast.com Like what you're hearing?

The differences between the opposite ends of the spectrum and how to own any position you choose to claim.How to migrate from one point on the spectrum—selling, marketing, service delivery and authority building—to another.Matching your business and revenue model (including how big an audience you'll want to attract) to your unique balance between consulting and coaching.Deciding which kinds of transformations matter most to you.The role of advisory retainers in moving across the spectrum.Quotables“It (coaching) feels a lot more like a transformation that you're selling and…it feels more like you're transforming the buyer into thinking a new way.”—JS“You have these opposite ends of the spectrum between consulting and coaching and then there's so many points in between you can own.”—RM“I took baby steps from consulting to coaching because it was like a relatively small number of people paying me a relatively high amount of money.”—JS“I had this philosophy—even when consulting—that the answer wasn't in me. The answer was in the client. And my job was to get that answer out.”—RM“It's really hard for me to imagine ever reversing direction on that spectrum (of consulting to coaching).”—JS“Now my greatest joy is when somebody hits a new level. Watching that dawn on people—midwifing those transformations—that's what I value.”—RM“And they're like, ‘I know I've heard you say this a thousand times, but you said it a little differently this time, and all of a sudden it clicked.' I just love those because they're so visceral to the reader or the listener.”—JS“Advisory retainers are another option where you can start to straddle the difference between classic consulting (where you're doing) and classic coaching (where you're always there).”—RMThe Experience Economy Episode with Joe Pine
Why frictionless publishing and distribution is usually the way to go (and what to do when it isn't).One publishing tech stack suggestion for low friction daily posting and sharing.Working around the downside of automation, AKA how to make sure your posts aren't riddled with typos.Evaluating alternative social media distribution options.Quotables“It's really important to make this stuff as frictionless as possible so that you can just stick to the really important piece, which is coming up with brilliant new insights and getting them out to the people who are excited to read them.”—JS“I schedule everything that can be scheduled.”—RM“Zapier gives you these little building blocks that you can just drag and drop or select from a list.”—JS“I'm always looking for preset easy ways to do some of this kind of automation without making yourself crazy.”—RM“A relatively new addition to my stack is Grammarly. I installed Grammarly on everything and wow—immediately addicted.”—JS“Cutting and pasting my post into ConvertKit and sending it to myself allows me to see it like the reader does, and I will edit in ways that I wouldn't otherwise.”—RM“If you are just syndicating content to these platforms, your engagement's not gonna be really high.”—JS“Once you've gotten in the habit (of posting) and you're feeling good, then look carefully at the social distribution of what you're doing, because every platform is different.”—RM
Connecting over the dopest conversations while getting her nails done, your triggered hosts welcome global mogul and nail goddess D'Marie Sambolin. While D'Marie has taken nails to a whole new level, in this episode, this power trio tackles an extremely sensitive and uncomfortable conversation - skin complexion in the Black community. So what does it mean to be light-skinned? Or part of the African diaspora? Is there an intentional divide? Does colorism exist within our community? And why are we so focused on getting “chosen” before choosing ourselves? KEY POINTS: - What does it mean to be Black? - Is light-skinned privilege real? - Do we fetishize complexions? - Racism vs colorism - Why the battle between Black and Latinx women? - Playing the “pick-me” game QUOTABLES: “It's like a cage that we automatically put people in depending on how they naturally look.” “We don't emphasize and congratulate or pedestal certain people. And then we wonder, well, why are we not being chosen? We don't even choose ourselves sometimes!” GUEST RESOURCES: Find more about D'Marie Sambolin at: IG | instagram.com/iheartdmarie nailgawdbydmarie.com PRODUCTS / RESOURCES: For more info, visit their website: triggeredafpodcast.com Like what you're hearing?

When automating or outsourcing tasks makes it clear that they don't need to be done at all.How to evaluate contractors and advisors for signs that they're saving—vs. costing—you time and money.How to think about out-of-pocket cost vs. your time and the complexity of your business operation.Why you want to periodically re-evaluate your existing leverage and how it's working for you.The role of your mindset when working with outsiders (or paying their invoice).Quotables“It's usually just making (automation leverage) simpler by shaving off stuff that apparently doesn't need to be there.”—JS“How do you know when you cross the line from leverage saving you money to costing you money?”—RM“In the context of this episode, the question becomes ‘do I even need to hire anyone to do this at all?' Like maybe I shouldn't even be doing this anymore.”—JS“So it's really being aware of when someone you're handing things off to is making your life more difficult rather than less.”—RM“In re-evaluating places where you create leverage, I feel like systems is the one that's the easiest. If we're talking about SOPs and text documents, they're so fluid and easy to update and super useful.”—JS“Deciding to outsource something—or even thinking about outsourcing—changes how you think about things. Either you don't miss it at all or you ask ‘why was I doing that?'”—RM“Ask: is there a way I can optimize this in a one-time way that will produce ongoing leverage from this money that I'm spending?”—JS“There might be something in there (SaaS upgrades) that we hadn't considered before, that we hadn't known was available that might make our lives so much better.”—RM
“The Spirit of God, She has made me, and the breath of the nursing God, She gives me life.” - Job 33:4When you close your eyes and envision God, who do you see? Like me, you probably envision God as an old, white male sitting on a throne looking down from on high with an air of judgment and anger toward the world. This is the god of authoritarianism, patriarchy, domination, and purity culture and he's been entrenched in our hearts and minds for years. But what if we've gotten God wrong all along? What if instead of a Divine dictator, God is Creator and Mother, the Sacred sustainer of life? The Divine Feminine is the spiritual concept that there exists a feminine counterpart to the patriarchal and masculine worship structures that have long dominated organized religions. The Divine Feminine extends well beyond one belief system, and instead can be used as a spiritual lens to balance our perspective on what it means to envision the Sacred. She shows up in all of the world's great religions including the Black Madonna, the Black Kali, and the Black Tara. It is high time we recovered God in female form for the sake of everyone. BioChristena Cleveland, Ph.D. is a social psychologist, public theologian, author, and activist. She is the founder and director of the Center for Justice + Renewal as well as its sister organization, Sacred Folk, which creates resources to stimulate people's spiritual imaginations and support their journeys toward liberation. An award-winning researcher and former professor at Duke University's Divinity School, Christena lives in Boston, Massachusetts.A weaver of Black liberation and the sacred feminine, Dr. Cleveland integrates psychology, theology, storytelling, and art to stimulate our spiritual imaginations. She recently completed her third full-length book, God is a Black Woman, which details her 400-mile walking pilgrimage across central France in search of ancient Black Madonna statues, and examines the relationship among race, gender, and cultural perceptions of the Divine. Dr. Cleveland holds a Ph.D. in social psychology from the University of California Santa Barbara as well as an honorary doctorate from the Virginia Theological Seminary. An award-winning researcher and author, Christena is a Ford Foundation Fellow who has held faculty positions at several institutions of higher education — most recently at Duke University's Divinity School. A bona fide tea snob, lover of Black art, and Ólafur Arnalds superfan — Christena makes her home in Boston.Quotables“It's not just white Jesus that I hate, it's male Jesus too.”“What does God do all day? God Gives birth.”“Whitemalegod is the spiritual or religious organizing principle behind this white patriarchy that flows in our land.”“It's scary to see how whitemalegod has poisoned so much of global Christianity.” “As a Black woman, I couldn't even show up (in church) as both Black and female.”“No one person has broken my heart like the Church has.” “I had no idea Saints across history have seen Jesus as female and feminine.” “I trust Black women to get the job done.”“I can relinquish a lot of the need to control others because God is a Black Woman, and She has it handled.” “I'm passionate about people finding themselves in the Divine.”“Gosh, wouldn't it be amazing if white men actually knew they were Sacred? That would solve pretty much all the problems in the world.” “The idea of God as a Black woman is the only thing that can only heal white patriarchy.” If you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a rating and a review

If you have followed Jess's healing journey over the last years, you know your girl has got a little bit of trauma. And no longer wanting to live her life through a lens of pain, she did EVERYTHING to try to change that, from Reiki to hypnosis to therapy. But nothing could have prepared her for the things she uncovered through EDMR. So in this episode, founder of Therapeutic Serendipity and licensed clinical social worker Heather Holop, joins the show to discuss what EDMR is, why it might be right for you, and how her own journey is one of the reasons she's so great at what she does. KEY POINTS: - What is EMDR? - Diving into Jess's negative cognitions - Why memories are not intrinsically painful - Are we lying to ourselves or coping? - Where do we go wrong with boundaries? - “When are we healed?” QUOTABLES: “It's always something deeper, but they just usually want to work on the stuff that's present. The stuff that's, I call it, the crisis of the week. I call it chasing cows.” “Your brain stays so focused on the trauma that it doesn't like the truth. And the thought that we develop about ourselves in those moments is actually what is painful. It's not the memory, because the memory only exists in your mind.” GUEST RESOURCES: Heather Holop, LCSW LinkedIn | linkedin.com/in/heather-holop-lcsw-27873012 Connect with Heather on a One-on-One session: https://calendly.com/therapeuticserendipity/15min?back=1&month=2022-10 PRODUCTS / RESOURCES: Love what you're hearing?
