Podcasts about revenue streams

Hannah Huante built her personal brand on one idea — unapologetic realness. Sharing fashion alongside mental health. Showing the glamorous parts and the hard parts. And that duality built a community that trusted her enough to follow her into an agency, a podcast and a physical content creation studio. In this episode of Running With Wolves, Savannah and Hannah dig into what it actually means to monetize realness without losing it — and why the founders and creators who win are the ones willing to be honest about what they choose to be honest about, repeat themselves endlessly, and keep going long before the results show up. Here's what this episode covers: • Why being authentic online doesn't mean sharing everything — and what it actually means instead • The six months of being stuck before Hannah finally said yes to building the agency — and how it quadrupled her income • Why she deleted a video that hit a million views — and why it was the right call • The difference between going viral and building a community that actually buys Connect with Hannah: Instagram at @howhanseesit: https://www.instagram.com/howhanseesit  Website: https://www.howhanseesit.com Listen to How I See It podcast: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2HXwo3ElwPpWtqa1frXiZN?si=8b080afd490643ed  Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-i-see-it/id1671023674  Apply to work with Savannah HERE: http://bit.ly/applywlfpodcast or DM her on Instagram @itssavannahjordan ( / itssavannahjordan ) with your takeaway.

Send Jackie A Message!The recovery side of wellness (saunas, cold plunge, contrast therapy) is on track to nearly triple over the next decade to almost $27 billion, and almost nobody in the yoga and Pilates industry is moving on it yet. If you have been working harder than ever and growth has still stalled, this episode explains why.Here is the shift: your members do not want just a workout anymore. They want a result. McKinsey surveyed more than 9,000 consumers and found wellness has become a daily practice, with people buying outcomes like sleep, recovery, and energy. Meanwhile, most people who quit a studio do not leave over price. They leave because they stopped seeing results or got bored, and half are gone within 90 days.In this solo episode, Jackie Murphy breaks down what your members are really asking for, why studios are too slow to give it to them, and the one recovery move you can make this quarter to get a full year ahead of your market. Become the Studio CEO.TIMESTAMPED OUTLINE[00:00] The $27 billion recovery wave nobody in yoga and Pilates is riding yet[01:57] Why this is a "where is this going" conversation, not a quick tip[03:56] The belief keeping you stuck: a great class is the whole product[06:31] What is opening now: cycling 4%, Pilates 46%, yoga 27%[09:26] Recovery: the fastest moving, least crowded category in wellness[11:11] Three reasons recovery works for a yoga or Pilates studio[13:40] Four ways to start small (no $200K build-out required)[16:48] The CEO question that changes how you run your business[18:18] What is coming in two weeks and where to connectKEY TAKEAWAYSYour members stopped buying activity. They are buying outcomes: sleep, recovery, energy, longevity.Price is rarely why people quit. They leave because they stopped seeing results or got bored, and half leave within 90 days.Recovery revenue does not require another instructor, so you add income without adding payroll.A $59 recovery add-on at 40% member adoption can mean roughly $60K in new recurring revenue per year.You do not need a $200K build-out. Start with one layer and prove demand first.The studios that move now own the next decade. The ones who wait spend it catching up.PULL QUOTES "This is not a hustle problem. The market is moving underneath you, and this is the memo nobody sent." "A beautiful class used to be the whole product. It is not anymore." "You never got to vote on that. Your customer just changed their mind." "You do not have to build an empire to start. Pick the lightest version that fits your space and your brand." "Stop operating as a teacher who owns a studio and start running a wellness brand."FAQ Is recovery a real opportunity for yoga and Pilates studios? Yes. The fitness recovery market was about $8 billion last year and is projected to hit nearly $27 billion by 2035. Very few yoga and Pilates studios offer it yet, which is exactly why the window is open now.Do I need to build a sauna or cold plunge to start? No. Start with a weekly recovery or restorative class, partner with a local sauna or cold plunge spot, or add a simple product like compression boots. Prove demand first, then scale.How much revenue can a recovery add-on generate? As an example, 200 members at $129 a month with a $59 add-on adopted by 40% of members is about $5K in new monthly recurring revenue, or roughly $60K a year, without acquiring a single new member.Why do members really quit a studio? Price is usually not the top reason. Most people leave because they stopped seeing results or got bored, and about half quit within the first 90 days.Connect with Jackie on Instagram @studioceoofficial for weekly industry insights.Work with Jackie MurphySay Hi on Instagram @studioceoofficialJoin The Studio CEO Program: https://www.jackiegmurphy.com/studioceoThe Grow Mastermind: https://www.jackiegmurphy.com/mastermind

Being a business owner requires you to be flexible, and sometimes that means changing your methods in order to continue to grow and stay relevant. Having more than one way to generate revenue can be a game-changer in your business and a key part of revenue diversification and maintaining consistent cash flow. In today's episode, I'm sharing how diversifying my revenue allowed me to build an entirely new business focused on multiple revenue streams and long-term stability and opened doors I used to only dream about.Mentioned in this Episode:Brand Authority BlueprintEpisode 75: Affiliate Marketing for Content CreatorsHoneybookEpisode 74: Growing Beyond Services: Building Diverse Revenue StreamsConnect with Joy:Instagram: instagram.com/joyymichelleYoutube: youtube.com/channel/UC-Ou6jRKxcjMrVMxWxLO_fQFacebook: facebook.com/joymichellephotographyCoach with Joy: joymichelle.co/coachingIf you're enjoying the content we're creating on the podcast and want to connect with others who are called to both, make sure you come join us in the PhotoBoss® with Joy Michelle Facebook Group!Join Now >>CLICK HERE TO GET 30% OFF YOUR FIRST YEAR OF HONEYBOOK!

The dominant structural shift highlighted is margin pressure and business model viability for MSPs due to workforce reduction driven by AI automation. This is exemplified by Microsoft's introduction of Agent365—an enterprise product licensing AI agents rather than human users—and industry reports forecasting that 30–50% of white-collar jobs may be replaced by AI technologies, according to publication summaries referenced during discussion. The shift fundamentally threatens the per-seat managed services pricing model that has anchored MSP revenue. Evidence of mounting financial risk is provided by the scenario where clients may halve their seat counts within a two-to-three-year window. As stated, this adjustment would immediately cut monthly recurring revenue (MMR) for MSPs. The discussion connects this trend to Microsoft's evolving licensing model and notes an industry-wide consensus reflected in a Capterra survey, which found all surveyed MSPs in 2024 facing significant increases in local competition. The implication is that margin pressure from both automation and intensifying competition is occurring simultaneously. Additional developments reinforce the risks to stability. Security complexity and associated liability are increasing, as non-specialist teams—originally tasked with legacy IT functions—are now expected to take responsibility for security operations without adequate expertise. This burden is heightened by the emergence of unmanaged AI adoption at client organizations, creating new avenues for data exposure and regulatory risk. Surveyed business owners are considering exit or consolidation, citing inability or unwillingness to restructure business models to accommodate these changes. Peer group participation is recognized as widespread but not a direct countermeasure to these structural challenges. For MSPs and IT service providers, the practical implications are clear: reliance on the per-seat model is a growing contract risk, with revenue volatility linked to workforce automation outpacing both the speed of traditional service adaptation and client technology adoption. Accountabilities around AI risk, security governance, and compliance are expanding—often without a corresponding increase in compensable scope or staff capability. Operators must assess vendor dependency (especially in rapidly shifting software licensing models), realign service portfolios towards advisory, compliance, and security, and prepare for sustained market turbulence marked by shrinking margins and rising operational complexity.

One Talk, Multiple Revenue Streams — How to Make Your Message Work Harder I was seventeen years old when I went to Camp Okontoe and something shifted. You never know when those moments are coming — you just show up, a little nervous, and somewhere in the middle of an ordinary moment, a door opens. That's what your signature talk is. Not just a keynote. A door. And behind it is an entire world of ways to serve the people who need what you carry. In this episode, I'm talking about how to make your existing talk work harder and how one framework, packaged intentionally, becomes a full revenue engine. In this episode: Why your signature talk is your most valuable business asset What's already hiding inside your framework that you haven't packaged yet The natural revenue streams that flow from every signature talk Why you don't need new content, just new packaging Your doable momentum move, identify one offer you could build from what you already have Ready to go deeper? Inside Charli Jane Speakers Club, we help you build the whole revenue engine from your message and give you AI-powered tools to keep finding the stages that fuel it.

Convenience stores looking to monetize their digital platforms have a new opportunity in post-transaction advertising, according to Jon Nolz, CEO and co-founder of MomentScience.Speaking on CSP's "At Your Convenience" podcast in May at the RMN Forum in Chicago, Knowles explained how c-store operators can generate revenue by displaying targeted offers immediately after customers complete purchases through delivery, order-ahead or pickup apps."It's the moment that really matters where you have people with their wallet out after they make that payment," Nolz said. "Why not get a free trial?"The technology integrates into existing systems through simple API or SDK implementations, with some partners completing setup in under an hour. Nolz emphasized balancing monetization with customer experience, recommending retailers maintain control over which ads appear rather than simply maximizing revenue.While many c-store chains lack dedicated retail media personnel, Nolz sees significant potential as digital ordering continues growing. Non-competitive offers like streaming service trials or loyalty program sign-ups work particularly well in the post-transaction moment, he said.

Too many photographers and creatives believe the only way to make more money is to raise their rates. But the reality is that many are already providing valuable services they simply aren't charging for. In this episode, I break down seven overlooked revenue opportunities that can increase profitability while delivering even more value to your clients. From equipment rental fees and digital file storage to behind-the-scenes content, additional revisions, and retouching beyond scope, these are services clients often request, expect, or benefit from, yet many creatives include them at no additional charge. The goal isn't to nickel-and-dime your clients. It's to build a sustainable business by pricing your work according to the true value you provide. If you're tired of doing more work without seeing more revenue, this episode will help you rethink what belongs in your pricing structure.

"Relationships can open doors that no amount of money can open for you, but you can't be referred if people don't know what you do." -Dr. Nadia Have you ever received a call from someone you knew that completely changed your business? Opened a door you didn't even know you wanted opened, until it opened? That's the power of relationships, and I'm not talking about being well-connected. I'm talking about whether your business has the infrastructure to make those relationships work for you, consistently and predictably. I was recently finalizing a revenue resilience plan for one of our diagnostic clients. Strong relationships across the board, but what I noticed is a disconnect between having strong connections and being strategic with her network. This scenario is more common than you think. Most founders are genuinely good at relationships. The care is there. The intention is there. What's often missing is the system underneath it that makes those relationships something you can count on, plan around, and build from. That's what we're going to talk about. In this episode, I'm walking you through the five relationship categories I audit in every revenue resilience diagnostic, where the gaps tend to hide, and what it looks like to close them. So, let's dive in! -Dr. Nadia Missed how a client went from $50 sessions to $500k in revenue? Watch it here or Listen here   Exciting News!! We are launching the Global Sales Culture Pulse Survey. This is a research study designed to understand what's really happening inside organizations around the world. It takes less than 10 minutes, and I'd love for you to be part of it.

What if financial independence isn't a number — it's a system? In this episode, Marcus sits down with Ron Kmetovicz — engineer, entrepreneur, and author of Ghost Money the Book — to dig into what financial independence actually looks like, why most people sabotage themselves before the market gets a chance to, and the deceptively simple strategy Ron has used across three generations of his family. At 78, Ron has weathered the dot-com crash, multiple market corrections, and decades of financial noise. His verdict? The strategy is simpler than the finance industry wants you to believe — and the biggest risk isn't the market. It's you. What We Cover Redefining financial independence — why it's not a number ($2 million, $5 million) but a structure: multiple revenue streams that don't all depend on the same thing The ghost account — Ron's core concept: a separate savings vehicle you start building in your teens, contribute to consistently, and largely ignore When to start — why Ron targets 8th to 10th graders and what a 16-year-old saving 20% of a part-time wage can realistically accumulate before finishing high school The 60/40 strategy — why a balanced fund (60% stocks, 40% bonds), consistently funded monthly, beats most active trading approaches over a lifetime S&P 500 ETFs explained — what they are, why Ron recommends them for those who can tolerate volatility, and what the long-run return data actually shows Why you shouldn't pick individual stocks — unless you have the mathematical and business training to do fundamental analysis, individual stock picking is a losing game The dot-com crash as a case study — what happened to investors who bought at the peak, how long recovery took, and why those who stayed the course still came out ahead Behaviours to abandon — Ron's frank take on the seven deadly sins as financial destroyers: greed, sloth, gluttony, lust, wrath, envy, and pride Fear, panic, and missed opportunity — the emotional triad that drives people to sell at the bottom and buy into the bubble Owning your home outright as a revenue stream — why Ron counts a mortgage-free home as a genuine component of financial independence The equity release trap — who benefits when you unlock your home equity (hint: not you), and the generational wealth implications for millennials and Gen Z What people are really chasing — the conversation gets honest about the difference between managing money and managing anxiety, status, and fear through money Staying the course — why discipline, not strategy, is the variable that separates those who get there from those who don't Key Takeaway Financial independence isn't about hitting a magic number. It's about building multiple revenue streams — starting as early as possible, saving consistently, investing simply, and having the discipline to stay in when everything in you wants to get out.

On this episode of the NACMA Podcast, we take a candid look at “New Revenue Streams: The Good, Bad, and Ugly.” From small incremental revenue opportunities to digital infrastructure and private equity, this conversation dives into what's actually working, and what isn't, as departments adapt to the pressures of the rev-share era.

Your podcast isn't failing—but if it's not generating leads, it's easy to start questioning everything. Your ideas, your consistency, even whether podcasting for business is actually worth it. But Generating Leads doesn't come from doing more. It comes from doing it differently.Because most of what you've been taught about content marketing was never built for business growth. It's built for visibility, audience growth, and staying consistent. And while that can help you grow your podcast, it doesn't always translate into business income or real traction in your online business.That disconnect is where things start to feel heavy.You sit down to record, unsure how this episode fits into the bigger picture. You publish, then wait—hoping something clicks. And when it doesn't, it's tempting to assume the problem is you.But it's not.It's the structure behind your content.Because Generating Leads through your podcast requires more than good ideas or strong podcast engagement strategies. It requires a clear business structure—one where each episode has a purpose, supports your offers, and fits into an intentional evergreen marketing strategy.And this is where everything starts to soften.When your content is connected to a bigger system, you're not guessing anymore. You can plan ahead. You can batch with clarity. Your marketing your podcast starts to feel aligned instead of scattered. And your content begins to support your business growth strategy in a way that actually feels sustainable.That's when Generating Leads becomes less about pressure—and more about momentum.Not because you're working harder, but because your podcast is finally working with you.This is the shift so many coaches and consultants are craving. A way to approach podcasting for business growth that feels clear, grounded, and effective—without constantly second-guessing every step.If that's what you've been looking for, I'm opening a free 3-day training where you'll map out your next 30 days of content—so your podcast can start supporting your business the way you need it to.Because Generating Leads isn't about doing more.

You're publishing consistently—but your podcast still isn't generating revenue. That gap isn't about effort. It's about structure. A low ticket funnel gives your podcast a defined role: guiding the right business owners from discovery to decision.Most podcasts focus on audience growth, content planning, and how to grow your podcast—but without a path to online sales, that traction stalls. Because it's not about more content… it's about building an ecosystem designed for evergreen revenue.That starts with your offer. A low ticket funnel works when you lead with something simple and outcome-driven. Low ticket offers—like a framework, system, or starter plan—create a clear entry point into your online business. They meet your buyer-ready listener where they are and move them forward quickly.This is where podcast monetization becomes intentional. Your content aligns with real search behavior—evergreen marketing, online income, building an online course—so your podcast becomes the top of your evergreen sales funnel. You're no longer guessing what to say. You're responding to demand with precision.But visibility alone doesn't convert. A low ticket funnel needs a bridge. Your audio funnel deepens trust, builds clarity, and supports decision-making without pressure. It moves someone from understanding to readiness in a way that feels natural.When these pieces align, everything sharpens. Your messaging becomes more direct. Your marketing your podcast efforts become more effective. Your launch strategy becomes simpler. And your business begins generating passive income through a system designed for consistency—not constant effort.Because a low ticket funnel isn't just a tactic—it's the foundation of an evergreen business built on strategic content, aligned offers, and intentional growth.If you're ready to launch a client-attracting podcast that actually supports your revenue, Launch Your Business Podcast is a 21-day program designed to help you build a streamlined, revenue-driving show from day one—without the overwhelm. Join today for only $47 and let's Launch Your Business Podcast >>> janditchfield.co/startnowReady to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

MY NEWSLETTER - https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeJoin me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I interview Connor Boyack (https://x.com/cboyack). In this episode, we dive into the wildly unconventional business model behind the Tuttle Twins, a massive publishing empire that teaches kids the fundamentals of capitalism, economics, and entrepreneurship. Connor breaks down the paradox of operating a highly profitable media arm entirely within a non-profit organization, the Libertas Institute (now the Libertas Network). We explore how a philanthropic kickstart model uses initial donations to ignite a self-sustaining marketing engine, and how treating a non-profit like an aggressive for-profit startup creates the ultimate market feedback loop. If you want to know how to aggressively scale a mission-driven brand without sacrificing your margin, you need to hear this!Questions This Episode Answers:How can you legally and effectively run a highly profitable business unit inside a non-profit organization?What is the "philanthropic kickstart model" and how does it create a self-funding marketing strategy?How can an unexpected demand surge impact your supply chain, and how do you pivot?Why do most non-profits struggle with inefficiency, and how does applying an entrepreneurial mindset fix them?How can a founder build personal wealth and earn royalties while leading a non-profit?Enjoy the conversation!__________________________Love it or hate it, I'd love your feedback.Please fill out this brief survey with your opinion or email me at nik@cofounders.com with your thoughts.__________________________MY NEWSLETTER: https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/5avyu98yApple: https://tinyurl.com/bdxbr284YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/nikonomicsYT__________________________This week we covered:00:00 Highlights_The Rise of Tuttle Twins03:02 Navigating Nonprofit and For-Profit Dynamics05:54 The Mission-Driven Approach08:46 The Impact of COVID-19 on Sales12:09 Realizing the Power of Media15:00 Overcoming Supply Chain Challenges17:48 Entrepreneurial Journey and Lessons Learned24:20 The Struggles of Early Entrepreneurship25:49 Transitioning to Nonprofit Work28:11 Financial Growth and Challenges30:04 Revenue Streams and Business Models32:56 The Nonprofit vs. For-Profit Mindset35:51 Creating Wealth in Nonprofits39:41 The Future of Libertas Network

If you've been sitting on the idea to start a podcast for business, but something keeps holding you back, it's probably not motivation—it's uncertainty. Because when you really think about what it takes to start a podcast for business, it can feel like a lot of moving parts with no clear return.And this is where most people get it wrong.It's not about creating more content. It's about building something that actually supports your business structure. Because when you start a podcast for business without a strategy, it becomes another task. But when it's positioned correctly, it becomes part of your growth engine.That shift—from content to infrastructure—is what changes everything.This is where podcast marketing for business starts to connect with real outcomes like business growth, online income, and evergreen revenue. Instead of chasing visibility, you're building trust. Instead of guessing what to say, you're creating a clear path that moves listeners toward your offers.And this is why podcast monetization becomes sustainable.Because you're not relying on constant promotion or social media spikes. You're creating something that supports online business growth long-term through evergreen marketing and intentional positioning.When done right, podcasting for business growth allows you to grow your audience, strengthen your message, and build an evergreen business model that compounds over time.So if you've been thinking about how to start a podcast for business, but you want to do it in a way that actually leads somewhere, this is your next step.Doors to Launch Your Business Podcast are now open → janditchfield.co/startnowReady to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

Your podcast might be growing—but your online sales aren't reflecting it. That disconnect isn't random. It usually means your content is doing exactly what it was designed to do… just not what your business actually needs.Because it's not about more content marketing or better audience engagement strategies. It's about who your podcast is really speaking to—and where they are in their decision-making process. Most business owners with a podcast focus on audience growth and refining their ideal client avatar, which works for visibility and podcast download growth, but often stalls online sales.And this is where the shift happens.When you move from speaking to a general audience to a buyer-ready listener, your entire audience growth strategy changes. You stop creating broad, educational episodes and start delivering clarity that cuts through the noise. This is what turns a podcast into a real asset for business growth and podcast monetization.Instead of stacking more tips on marketing your podcast, you begin addressing what your listener has already tried—why it didn't work, and what actually moves them forward. That's the difference between passive audience growth and active online sales.This approach also strengthens your evergreen marketing and email marketing efforts, because your content becomes aligned with decision-making, not just learning. It supports your online course sales, deepens trust with your online business audience, and positions you as the clear next step—not just another voice.If your goal is to grow your podcast and turn it into a driver of online income, this is the shift that matters. Because more content isn't the answer—better alignment is. And that's what ultimately drives consistent online sales.If you're ready to build a podcast that actually supports your offers, Launch Your Business Podcast opens April 29. It's designed to help you create a strategic, sales-focused podcast from day one—without overcomplicating your launch strategy.Ready to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

Amanda Cruise interviews Heather Blankenship, who shares how she built a diversified portfolio across RV parks, mobile home parks, and multifamily over 15 years, starting as an owner-operator before scaling with a team. She explains why RV parks offer strong cash flow but require heavy operations, leading her to add more stable assets to balance her portfolio. Heather breaks down how RV parks have remained stable post-COVID due to drive-to demand and supply constraints, while also explaining the complexity of underwriting assets with multiple revenue streams and higher operational costs. She highlights the importance of aligning your investment strategy with your goals, whether that's cash flow, tax benefits, or long-term stability. She also walks through a hybrid RV and mobile home park acquisition, where she increased occupancy through workforce housing demand and repositioned the asset for stronger performance. Her key takeaway is that one RV park can still be life-changing, but only if the asset type matches your desired level of involvement and long-term vision.

You didn't miss your moment with podcasting—even if it feels like you did. And honestly, that thought alone is usually the thing holding you back from deciding to start a podcast in the first place.Because it's not about being early. It's about being ready. And right now, there's a real shift happening in how people are consuming content—which is exactly why choosing to start a podcast can be such a smart move for your business.People aren't just scrolling anymore. They're searching. They're looking for conversations that actually help them think differently, make decisions, and move forward. And this is where podcasting for business becomes really powerful.Instead of trying to keep up with content just to stay visible, you're meeting people in a space where they're already paying attention. That's what makes it such an effective audience growth strategy—and why podcast marketing for business tends to build deeper trust than anything short-form ever could.And this is the part that really matters.It's not just about what you're teaching. It's about how you think. Because that's what your audience is connecting to. That's what builds real audience growth. And over time, that's what helps you grow income in a way that actually feels sustainable.If you're focused on how to grow an online business, this matters more than ever. Because the goal isn't more content—it's better positioning. And podcasting for business growth gives you a way to do that without constantly starting over.Your content doesn't disappear. It builds. It compounds. It keeps working for you.So when you start a podcast for business, you're not just creating episodes—you're creating an asset.And there's something else here that's worth paying attention to.There's a lot of noise around podcasting being “saturated.” But when you actually look at who is leading in the space, there is still so much room. So many conversations that aren't being had. So many perspectives that aren't fully represented.Which means deciding to start a podcast right now isn't late—it's aligned.And if this has been on your mind for a while, there's probably a reason for that.Because podcasting for business isn't just about content—it's about building something that supports your visibility, your authority, and your growth over time.If you're ready to approach this in a way that actually makes sense for your business, the Podcasting for Business Launch Plan will walk you through how to set it up as a real asset from the beginning. Doors are opening on April 27! Ready to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

You don't realize how much you've been overcomplicating your online course… until you build one from a completely different perspective.Because looking back, none of my biggest mistakes came from lack of effort. They came from thinking I was doing it “right”—when in reality, I was building my online course in a way that made everything harder than it needed to be.And this is where things started to shift for me.After years inside online course creation and growing an online business, I can now see exactly where I was slowing myself down—relying too heavily on launches, treating offers like one-time projects instead of assets, and disconnecting my content from my actual online course sales.What changed wasn't how much I worked. It was how I thought.You'll hear how I moved away from constant creation and into building evergreen courses that continue to sell, how I started approaching online course marketing with more intention, and why aligning my content—especially through podcast marketing—completely changed how my offers perform.There's also a more personal layer to this.- The way I priced my offers.-  Who I listened to. - And how perfectionism kept me stuck longer than I'd like to admit.Because this isn't just about what to do differently when you build an online course—it's about seeing your current approach clearly enough to change it.And once you do, everything gets simpler.If you're in the process of building or refining your online course, this will help you strip away what's unnecessary and focus on what actually creates consistent, sustainable growth.Press play and take a look at your online course with a completely different lens.Ready to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

College may be one of pop culture's favorite settings, but behind the scenes, universities are serious intellectual property owners. Michael Snyder and Joseph Gushue explore how colleges use trademark, copyright, and licensing to protect logos, mascots, colors, slogans, and other brand assets across athletics, merchandise, and media. Using Rudy, Blue Chips, and The Social Network as touchpoints, they also examine how NIL rights have changed college sports, and where the line remains between an athlete's personal brand and a school's protected IP. In this episode: How colleges use trademark, copyright, and licensing to protect their brands Why quality control and style guides are essential to university licensing programs How college merchandising became a multi-billion-dollar industry The key boundary between NIL rights and school-owned intellectual property Bottom line: college brands are more than traditions.

If your course isn't selling, it's tempting to assume the problem is your content. But more often than not, the issue sits in how your evergreen course is priced—and whether that price actually supports trust, positioning, and sustainable sales.Because pricing isn't about picking a number that feels right. It's about aligning your evergreen course with the result it delivers, the market it sits in, and the role it plays inside your business. And this is where most creators get stuck—overthinking, second-guessing, and unintentionally underpricing in a way that makes selling harder, not easier.It's not about “charging what you're worth.” It's about pricing a transformation. When you build an online course, your audience is subconsciously comparing it to other online courses solving similar problems. Price too low, and you create doubt. Price too high without positioning, and you create friction. The goal is fair market alignment that supports clean online course sales.And this is where strategy replaces emotion. Your evergreen course doesn't exist in isolation—it sits inside an ecosystem. Whether you're in course creation mode or refining your funnel, your offer needs a clear role: quick-win, core transformation, or high-touch support. Each one carries different expectations, and your pricing should reflect that.Because scalability matters. In an evergreen model, relying on high volume at low pricing creates pressure. Structuring your online sales with thoughtful tiers allows you to maintain accessibility while creating space for higher-value conversions—something most evergreen courses are missing.And this is where it clicks: it's not about guessing the “right” price. It's about making a strategic decision that supports how your evergreen course sells over time.If you want the full foundation behind this, go back and listen to episode 41 for the start of this conversation.Ready to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

Everyone's asking the same question right now: are online courses dead—or have we just been building them the wrong way? The truth is, evergreen courses aren't failing. They're being filtered.Because what's changed isn't demand—it's discernment. In today's online course business, buyers don't want more information. They want precision. They want speed. And they want outcomes that feel immediately relevant to what they're already trying to solve. That shift is redefining course creation, online sales, and how we actually sell online courses in 2026.This is where most creators get stuck. They assume the model is broken, when in reality, it's their course sales strategy that hasn't evolved. Broad, slow, overly complex programs are being left behind. Not because online courses don't work—but because they no longer match how people buy.And this is where evergreen courses start to matter more, not less.When evergreen course creation is built around a buyer-ready offer—clear problem, specific outcome, aligned messaging—it stops feeling passive. It becomes consistent. An evergreen sales funnel isn't about automation doing the heavy lifting. It's about alignment across your offer, positioning, and lead generation so your online business can scale with intention.There's also a deeper shift happening in how people engage. Time is limited. Attention is selective. So the courses that win today are the ones that are usable, direct, and designed for real-life application—not just consumption. That's what drives business growth and helps people actually make money with courses.So no—this isn't the end of online courses. It's the evolution of them. And evergreen courses—especially as we move into evergreen courses 2026—are becoming one of the most sustainable ways to grow.If this changed how you're thinking about your course or your online business, share the episode with someone who's been asking, “are online courses dead?”Ready to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Life Time DPT: IG Donovan_will_Running is easy to start and hard to master, and that gap is where most people get stuck. I'm talking with Donovan, a coach at Lifetime Dumbo in downtown Brooklyn, about what actually makes runners improve: a clean foundation, the right intensity, and a mindset that doesn't crumble when things get uncomfortable. He's also training for the New York Marathon, so this isn't theory, it's lived experience. We dig into how he builds a run clinic and a free run club with real pace support, plus the overlooked details that keep people consistent: cadence, breathing, core and stability, and choosing shoes that help your ankles move naturally. Donovan shares his personal story of multiple eye surgeries and why running is one of the few times he feels relief, which turns “motivation” into something deeper than hype. Then we get practical with performance and health: VO2 max testing, metabolic testing, and how personalized heart rate zones can replace guesswork from generic formulas and wearables. We talk Zone 2 training you can actually sustain, smarter interval training in Zone 4 and Zone 5, and what the pain cave looks like both mentally and physiologically when your body hits a limit. If you want to run faster, build aerobic fitness, lose weight without living in redline, or simply enjoy running again, this conversation gives you a clear playbook. Subscribe, share this with a friend who “always goes too hard,” and leave a review with your biggest running question so we can tackle it next.Want to become a SUCCESSFUL personal trainer?

What if the thing you've been building is working… you just haven't stopped long enough to see it?This episode is a little different. We're talking about evergreen marketing, but not in the way you normally hear it. Not as a strategy you plug into your business, but as something you build over time, often without realizing just how much it's compounding beneath the surface.Because March ended up being my highest download month ever on the podcast, and when I actually paused to look at it, what stood out wasn't the number. It was what that growth represented after years of showing up, refining my message, and treating my podcast like a real asset in my business.If you've been trying to grow your online business and it feels like everything depends on you constantly being visible, constantly posting, constantly pushing, this episode is going to give you a different way to think about it.We talk a lot about evergreen marketing as a concept, but this is what it actually looks like in practice. It's the result of consistent effort, clear positioning, and building something that doesn't disappear the second you stop promoting it.Podcasting has become one of the most effective forms of content marketing I've ever used, not just because it supports audience growth, but because it creates a body of work that continues to bring people in over time. When you approach it as podcasting for business instead of just another platform, it changes how you show up and what you build.This episode is a reminder that growth doesn't always look the way you expect it to, and that sometimes the most powerful results come from staying with something long enough to let it work.Because that's what evergreen marketing really is. It's not fast, it's not flashy, but it is one of the most sustainable ways to grow your business when you're willing to commit to it.Ready to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

If you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things in your online marketing but still not seeing consistent revenue, this episode is going to shift how you look at your business entirely. Because more often than not, it's not your strategy that's broken—it's that you're not tracking the right data to support it.In this conversation, we're stripping things back to what actually matters when it comes to building a sustainable online business—the numbers that tell you what's working, what's not, and where your next sale is really coming from. This isn't about tracking everything. It's about focusing on the metrics that directly impact your ability to generate online income and create predictable growth.We're talking through the key data points you should be reviewing monthly, quarterly, and annually, including your revenue, your email list performance, and—most importantly—your content engine. If you're using a podcast (or planning to), you'll learn how to track your downloads in a way that actually gives you useful insight, what your 7-day numbers are telling you about your visibility, and how your listen-through rate can quietly make or break your evergreen sales.Because here's the truth: if people aren't listening all the way through your episodes, they're not hearing your offers. And if you're not paying attention to that data, you're leaving money on the table without even realizing it.We also get into how your keyword performance plays into your overall online marketing strategy, especially if your goal is to build something that continues to bring in leads and sales long after you've hit publish. This is where your content starts working for you instead of the other way around—and where you begin to grow income in a way that feels stable instead of reactive.If you're tired of guessing and ready to start making clearer, more confident decisions in your online marketing, this is the episode that will give you the framework to do it.And to make this easy to implement, I've created a free cheat sheet and tracker you can use to start organizing your data right away.

Most podcasters think they need ads or sponsors to make money. But what if the revenue is already sitting in your existing episodes? In this episode, I break down how to turn your podcast into a revenue-generating asset without creating new content. From curated playlists and paid workshops to mini-courses and premium content, I'll share the practical ways my clients are repurposing what they've already recorded into offers their audiences are happy to pay for. And, how you can do it too. If you've got a back catalog, you may be sitting on untapped revenue. Want to find out?

If you've been thinking about how to start a podcast for business, or you already have one and it's not leading to clients or sales, this episode is going to shift how you think about it. Because most podcasts don't struggle from a lack of effort… they struggle because they were never set up to support an online business in the first place.I share a bit of my own experience in this one—starting my first show with 15 downloads in the first month, staying consistent, doing everything I thought I was supposed to do, and still not seeing it translate into online income. Not because podcasting doesn't work, but because I didn't understand how to start a podcast for business in a way that actually connected to how my business made money.That's the shift this episode moves through. The difference between creating content and creating direction. Between having a podcast that people enjoy… and building a podcast business that actually supports your online income and helps you grow your online business over time.There's a quieter conversation here about how podcasting fits into evergreen online marketing, and why it can become one of the most effective tools for evergreen sales when it's built with intention. Not in a complicated way, and not in a way that adds more pressure, but in a way that allows your podcast to function as an asset inside your online business, instead of another platform you have to constantly feed.If you're in that place where you're trying to start online business growth that feels more sustainable, or you're rethinking how your content actually supports your revenue, this will give you a different lens to look through. Because when you start a podcast for business with the right foundation, it changes what's possible—not just for your podcast, but for how your business grows as a whole.And if you're ready to start a podcast for business in a way that's clear, structured, and actually aligned with how you want your business to run, this is where that begins.Ready to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

If you're trying to grow your online business but feel like you're constantly guessing what to focus on each day, this episode brings you back to what actually matters.When time is limited—and for most women building a business, it is—the answer isn't doing more. It's doing the right things consistently. In this episode, I walk you through three simple, non-negotiable daily habits that create forward momentum, even in the middle of a full life. These are the same principles I rely on in my own business and the same actionable steps I give to clients who want to grow income without burning out.At the core of this approach is list building—not as a one-time task, but as an ongoing investment in one of the most valuable assets in your business. When you shift your focus back to your email list and your long-term growth strategy, you begin to see how evergreen online marketing actually works in practice. It's not about chasing attention. It's about building something that compounds over time and supports your ability to grow your online business sustainably.This episode also reframes what it really means to work on your business. Not everything that fills your day leads to revenue. If your goal is to grow income or even start an online business that's sustainable, you need to understand which activities directly support that outcome—and which ones are simply keeping you busy.And underneath all of it is the mindset required to keep going. The ability to stay grounded, focused, and steady, even when results don't come immediately, is what allows everything else to work.If you've been feeling scattered or inconsistent, this is your reset. A simple, repeatable way to grow your online business with clarity, intention, and consistency.Ready to Turn Your Podcast Into a Revenue Stream?If you want to build a business that works when you're offline, your podcast can become one of the most powerful evergreen marketing tools in your business.Inside my Podcast Growth Strategy, I'll help you optimize your podcast for search so it attracts the right listeners, grows your audience, and turns your show into a discoverable marketing asset that keeps working long after you hit publish.This is a done-for-you strategy designed to help you grow your show, increase your online visibility, and create income without social media.

We'll also talk about how to use guest episodes as social proof and authority validation, so they support your business instead of competing with it.If you've been wondering why your podcast marketing isn't translating into sales, or how to use your podcast for business in a way that actually supports your online business, this episode will help you rethink your entire approach.Because your podcast isn't just content—it's a system.

Many entrepreneurs focus on growing their personal brand through content and social media visibility, but visibility alone does not build a sustainable business. In this episode of Social Media Decoded, Michelle Thames explains the four revenue streams that successful personal brands use to turn attention into income and opportunity. Through the Visibility Breakdown, Michelle walks through the four key areas that allow entrepreneurs to monetize their expertise: community, events, corporate opportunities, and consulting. These revenue streams help personal brands move beyond posting content and start building real ecosystems around their knowledge and relationships. She also shares insights about how visibility and proximity work together to create opportunities such as speaking engagements, collaborations, consulting clients, and business partnerships. If you are building a personal brand and want to move from visibility to revenue, this episode will help you start thinking about how to structure your business around multiple streams of opportunity. What You'll Learn in This Episode • The four revenue streams every personal brand should build• Why community is one of the most powerful business models for entrepreneurs• How events create proximity and deeper trust with your audience• Why corporate partnerships and speaking opportunities are often overlooked• How consulting turns your expertise into a direct revenue stream Visibility Breakdown Michelle explains the four primary revenue streams that support a sustainable personal brand: CommunityCreating a space where your audience connects, collaborates, and grows together. EventsHosting gatherings that bring people together in real life or virtual spaces to deepen relationships. Corporate OpportunitiesSpeaking, workshops, and partnerships with organizations that want your expertise. ConsultingWorking directly with individuals or businesses to help them apply your strategies and insights. When these revenue streams work together, visibility becomes the gateway to long-term business growth. Room Story Michelle shares how many of the opportunities in her own business did not come from content alone, but from rooms and relationships. Often someone discovers her podcast or social media content, then attends an event, joins the community, or reaches out for a strategy conversation. These layered connections often lead to collaborations, consulting work, or speaking opportunities. Unpopular Visibility Truth Many personal brands stay stuck because they only focus on content. Posting consistently can increase visibility, but sustainable businesses are built when that visibility connects to clear revenue streams such as community, events, corporate partnerships, and consulting.
