Episode 33 kickstarts our 3rd series The Problem Page. Q. What is the biggest mistake when planning behaviour change marketing? A. No behaviour change goal. This episode explores the reasons why we may not start with behaviour change goal and the confusion between a policy goal and a behaviour change goal. Ruth shares two case studies and how the focus shifted when using behaviour change goals. We explore how you can stop running more awareness campaigns, and shift from piling knowledge onto people that doesn't lead to action. How you can get more creative and increase your impact. Quote “Not having a goal is a symptom of not actually knowing what we what our audience to do.” Ruth Dale 3 AHA moments The pressure to deliver often means the insight part is skipped. Skip this at your peril. Without knowing what the desired behaviour is you cannot communicate it! By focusing on a goal that is about behaviour, it takes your marketing into new arenas that will unleash your creativity and connect with your audience in new ways. Our data sources may keep us focused on the problem – when considering your new behaviour ensure you can measure it. If not, don't do it! The next Behaviour Change Marketing Bootcamp is live. The final date for 2022 is November 2nd. The Early-bird is open. Click here for half price training places before they run out. Want your team to get on the same page around behavioural science?

Jill Sharfman NC, is a board-certified holistic nutritionist living with her family in Los Angeles. She is the co-host along with Dr. Andrea Moskowitz of the nutrition podcast “Let My People Eat.” On each episode Jill helps to demystify confusing talk about how to maintain a healthy lifestyle while keeping kosher. The podcast is available on iTunes, Spotify, GooglePlay and at https://letmypeopleeat.com. Follow her on Instagram @jill_sharfman for more information and on Facebook @letmypeopleeatpodcast.   What to eat and what not to eat? That is a question that many of us struggle with. Whether it is pescatarian, paleo, vegan or vegetarian  the options are numerous and the various messages delivered through our culture can be immensely confusing. Jill’s answer is remarkably simple: eat what works for your body. We can start to eat more intuitively by noticing how we feel after we eat thus  being  more mindful of which foods affect our digestion, our moods and our energy  levels. It’s time to take the fear and guilt out of food and focus on health and well being. Rather than restrict ourselves we can add healthier options such as more water, more veggies and more color into our meals.  Favorites: Book: Prescription for Natural Cures by James F.

Welcome to this week’s Friday Jam Session. I enjoy hanging out with some awesome people and answering some great questions every week! To join us head over to takeactioncrew,com to hang out with us. Today we’re going to be talking all about what to write and send to your email list. I’ll be sharing with you five different things you can send to your email list that will help you grow your business. What Do You Send To Your Email List   #1 Fulfill Your Promise - What did you promise your email list in the lead magnet that they signed up for. To start, send the download that you promised them. The second email can be a follow up to see if they received the download and see if they’ve been able to use it yet or if they have any questions. Not everyone gets the first email or even opens it, so it’s always good to follow up with another email to your unopen list, and it’s super easy to do.   #2 Ask Questions - Make it a point to send at least one email per week. It’s important to ask open-ended questions so you can get feedback and start a conversation with your audience. This is also a great way to have a better idea of what problems and solutions they are looking for and show that you are a trusted source ready to help them. When someone responds it will improve your credibility and boost your delivery rate.   #3 Send Them To Your Blog or Website - The goal is to drive traffic to your website/blog, so your email list helps you with that and will help rank your content higher in Google when they see that people visit your website. You can always send an email to let them know you’ve recently uploaded a new post, or if you update an old piece of content, send an email letting your email list know, especially when you have new people on your email list.   #4 Send People to YouTube - If YouTube is a big part of your website, send people from your email list to your website. If you’re doing this, always put your video in a playlist. You’ll send people to the playlist so it’ll automatically play the second video that you have up instead of automatically playing someone else’s content if you send them to a specific video.   #5 Send People to Your Facebook Page or Group - If you’ve recently posted something on Facebook that you want people to be aware of, drive people to Facebook. On a page, you can always share the link. However, if you have a group, it can’t be shared as easily.   Always make sure that the emails you write are about your audience and not you. Create Powerful Subject Lines 15:14   One of the most important things you can do is to create subject lines that create curiosity. Questions are also very effective. Make sure to look at the platforms that work best for your business and work best for you.  Friday Jam Session Questions   Should I Send A Second Email to The Unopened List?   At a regular rhythm, I would send a follow-up email 24-36 hours after to the unopened list. You’ll be amazed at how many people will open your email the second time around, so don’t miss out on that opportunity.   Should I Create Email Sequences or Create an Email Every Week?   For my email lists, I have an onboarding sequence, and if we have an offer going on, we have a deadline sequence that goes into place. When you’re just starting out, build a 3-5 email sequence that is sent when someone signs up for your lead magnet. From there, you can add them to your general list where you’ll send at least one email out a week.   Should I Create Email Sequences for Launches?   I don’t set up email sequences for launches. The only auto message I do is if they sign up using a landing page. I like to address current concerns and stay in control of the message.   As always I am here for you, I believe in you and am rooting for you.   Now, it’s time for you to take action and go rock your brand! Take-Aways From Today’s Episode What Do You Send To Your Email List (3:15) Create Powerful Subject Lines (15:14) Friday Jam Session Questions (17:59)   Quote: Not everyone gets the first email or even opens it, so it’s always good to follow up with another email to your unopen list, and it’s super easy to do.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: Mass protests against police brutality continued across the country on Monday night, as Donald Trump ordered State governors to quote “dominate” protesters and seek retribution, threatened to invoke the insurrection act, and tear-gassed peaceful protestors so he could do a photo op. Meanwhile, a private autopsy confirms what everyone who’s seen the traumatic video of George Floyd’s death could tell: asphyxiation was at least part of the reason he died. And lastly, two spots of progress throughout the chaos: The police chief in Lousiville, Kentucky has been fired after it was revealed that two of his officers who murdered a store owner early Monday morning did not have their body cameras on. And in New York, lawmakers are already moving to repeal a law that shields police disciplinary records from the public. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: The gloves are off and Donald Trump is out for blood. In a call with state Governors today, Trump was unhinged, raving that protestors were quote “going to run over you, you’re going to look like a bunch of jerks.” endquote. He followed quote: “Someone throwing a rock is like shooting a gun. You have to do retribution. You have to arrest people, and you have to try people, and they have to go jail for long periods of time.” Bear in mind, this is coming from a guy who is deeply, deeply scared. Earlier on Monday, Trump tear-gassed a group of peaceful protestors near the White House so he could walk to St. James Cathedral and hold up a bible in the air. Literally, that’s all he did -- wandered over and held up a bible. At one of his deranged press conferences later Monday, Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection act, which would allow him to deploy active duty troops to inflict further violence on protestors. That hasn’t happened since the 1992 Rodney King riots in L.A. Even mayors and governors in the blue states are cracking down in support of the police. L.A. moved up its curfew to the absurd hour of 1pm on Monday, and NYC instituted an 11pm curfew despite plans for mass demonstrations. Autopsy Confirms Floyd Was Suffocated A private autopsy ordered by the family of George Floyd indicates what all of us pretty much already knew: he suffocated to death at the hands of police. Dr. Allecia M. Wilson of the University of Michigan and Dr. Michael Baden, a former New York City medical examiner, found that Floyd died both from the knee on his neck and the other officers compressing his lungs as they held him down. A lawyer for the family said: QUOTE: “Not only was the knee on George’s neck a cause of his death, but so was the weight of the other two police officers on his back, who not only prevented blood flow into his brain but also air flow into his lungs,” ENDQUOTE. This appears to fit with recently uncovered security footage that shows other angles of the arrest. The New York Times published a video investigation of the event that in one image shows another officer, obscured from sight in the main video, also pressing on Floyd’s back while Derek Chauvin held him down. So far, Chauvin is the only one who’s been arrested, although the three other officers clearly contributed to his murder. And even their chief isn’t denying it -- in an interview on CNN on Sunday, MPD chief Medaria Arradondo said that Floyd might not Louisville Chief Out, NY Law on Chopping Block Progress on police brutality has been slow to say the least, but the recent round of protests appears to be moving the needle ever so slightly. Or, at least acknowledging that there is a needle? We’ll take what we can get. In New York, lawmakers are reportedly flirting with the idea of getting rid of a longstanding state law called 50-a, which hields police personnel records from public view. It’s absurd that these anti-transparency measures are even on the books in the first place, so getting them out of here would be a huge step for some semblance of justice, and good precedent for other states. The other bright point is in Kentucky, where the Lousiville police chief has been summarily ejected for his enabling of a reckless and violent department, particularly in the case of a shop owner killed by police early on Monday morning. Chief Steve Conrad probably will never face charges, but it’s good to see a head rolling at the highest level. Two of his officers shot a business owner in the wee hours of Monday morning, and did not have their body cameras on, a serious breach of policy. The killers have been placed on Administrative leave, so we can only hope they face some actual consequences as well. We’ll either look back on these steps as the first inklings that things were getting better, or as a false hope of progress in an increasingly authoritarian state. Time will tell. AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: A new watchdog report found that the IRS has neglected to audit a large portion of rich people who haven’t filed tax returns, which means the government is missing out on billions of dollars in revenue. In other words, the government can’t even bring itself to enforce the pitiful amount of taxes it’s supposed to collect from the rich. Great going. Facebook employees organized a virtual walkout on Monday, taking the day off from work to protest Mark Zuckerberg’s complete inaction on moderating Donald Trump’s violent posts. It’s the first walkout in Facebook’s history. A white nationalist group got caught posing as Antifa on twitter. According to NBC news, the white nationalist group Identity Evropa [EUROPA] posed as a national antifa group in order to incite violence. This is an old tactic, and one that usually fails almost immediately, and this time was no different. A federal judge denied a right-wing group’s request to block the use of absentee mail-in ballots in Virginia, handing a major victory to voting rights groups. If the law holds against future challenges, it’ll mean that anyone in Virginia can use an absentee ballot without needing an excuse, effectively legalizing vote-by-mail.

What is engagement and why is it important? Engagement How you communicate with your company Hiring managers - I want to hire the best talent, retain top talent What happens in the middle from what you want vs what you are getting The company gave 3 hours of training, no orientation, on the job training. Employees responsibility - Who owns engagement?? Problem 3 sides of the engagement - Who’s responsibility is it these days  If a person is not engaged correctly, they are going to bounce quickly… first 30 days.  The company needs to train leaders to be better leaders The dual partnership between the company's & managers People leave quickly or they stay and are just there because of the paycheck Belief in mission, vision values.  Outlining issues that you cannot control Employee: losing engagement with the job… nothing more that is being contributed Rick’s Thoughts Engagement starts with your job posting, email or phone call Critical in attraction & retention When you care, you win Human Contact is the key 1:75 people call back.  There has to be a personal approach.  Steps to maximize engagement Sources are not recruiters…  Everyone with at least relevant experience NEED to be called  train recruiters on what needs to be asked Discuss career worth Poor career planning. No mentoring, support or growth  Once they start: Not scaling back on your onboarding process Social media posts are not onboarding Clearly, have a process Train your recruiters What information to gather The importance of a conversation Reward finding gold nuggets! Create a hiring bonus for people who were passed over because of a resume but are actually good Pick up the phone and call people! Key Takeaways: Differentiate yourself from the standard hiring process Create a structured and standardized interview process Train your employees to be Talent minded Remember in engagement – how you make the candidate feel is more important – please be genuine in your approach, efforts and ensure timely and responsive feedback – always

Podcast #44: Do your job with Guest Dan Rockwell. In this weeks episode, we meet Dan Rockwell. Dan is a star in the field of leadership and is doing great things with his blog, The Leadership Freak. Dan has been an inspiration to me personally because of the content of his blogs as well as the way he writes. His writings are straight-forward, pertinent topics, and just seem to hit home with me with where I am in my life. After I interviewed him, I felt more of a connection. Enjoy the show Podcast #44 with Dan Rockwell: Do Your Job This week’s content came from Dan’s March 3rd blog entitled Do your job. We wrote about the book by David Halberstam entitled The Education of a Coach. As leaders, Dan gives three tips that we can do not only to better do our jobs, yet support our colleagues and those who follow. I found these three tips simple yet practice and purposeful: #1: Do the work: Don’t just show the way, get your hands dirty and do the work too. In terms of being a Principal, I don’t just talk about teaching with engagement, I try to model it in my meetings and activities with my staff. I also try to get my hands dirty--help clean up a spill, pick up garbage while walking the building, or even cover a class. No job is too big or small--Do The Work! #2: Support others while they work: Challenge and cheer Dan writes. I've struggled at times trying to motivate other...trying to make them the best they can be and it has backfired. People have gotten angry at me stating that I made them feel that they were doing a poor job. I really like this concept: challenge and cheer! #3: Remove the obstacles: Lastly, as a leader, Dan shares about removing the obstacles for others. Think about how many people give you an excuse of why they did NOT do something. They gave you the reasons why not? Remove the obstacles, discuss the reasons why and get others to Do Their Jobs!

QUOTE: Not giving up on yourself is key. Just because you’ve read 5000 self help books and just because you’ve tried everything … What works for one person, might not work for another. There is something out there that will work for you.
