Initially tested as the Search Generative Experience, this AI feature now delivers summarized search results, drastically altering consumer behavior and brand visibility online.

After the theme music, I do Wednesday Waffle, where I talk about something different for a bit. Are you struggling to manage your Instagram feed without unfollowing friends or feeling overwhelmed by unwanted content?  Join me, Daniel Hill, in this exciting episode of The Instagram Stories as I play a clip of Adam Mosseri, the Head of Instagram, about two powerful yet underutilized features that can transform your social media experience: Mute and Restrict.Adam shares invaluable insights into how the Mute feature allows users to curate their Instagram experience by stopping posts and stories from specific accounts without severing ties.  This is especially beneficial for those navigating content overload or wanting a break from certain accounts while maintaining their connections.  We also dive deep into the Restrict feature, a game-changer for anyone facing harassment.  This 'shadow block' option enables users to hide comments from restricted accounts, creating a safer online environment while still allowing the original commenter to see their remarks.  These features are essential for anyone managing a brand's online presence or those who may have experienced bullying on social media.But that's not all!  I also share the latest updates from the Instagram Edits app, including new beat markers and enhanced inspiration tools that are perfect for content creators looking to elevate their Instagram game.  Additionally, we hear from Lauren, a Program Manager at YouTube, who discusses the feedback surrounding the removal of the revert to original feature in YouTube Creator Studio and the exciting new playlist collaboration features that are on the horizon.This episode is packed with social media tips and insider insights on Instagram, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in social media marketing, influencer marketing, and the ever-evolving landscape of Instagram features and updates.  Whether you're looking to refine your Instagram DM strategy or stay updated on TikTok trends, this episode delivers the social media insights you need to navigate the creator economy effectively.Don't miss out on this opportunity to enhance your understanding of Instagram and stay ahead in the world of social media.  Tune in now to discover how you can leverage these Instagram features for a better social media experience!Show Notes:Leave a Review: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Me on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@danielhillmedia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: Mute and Restrict (Instagram)Edits: App Updates (Instagram)YouTube: "Revert to original" Deprecation, Voting on Playlists, and Mini-Player (YouTube) Leave a Review: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Me on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@danielhillmedia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

#562 In Today's Episode of the podcast I chat with YOU as I dive into your most pressing photo questions. I take listener-submitted questions and share advice, stories, and practical strategies based on my own experiences as a photographer. Whether you're wrestling with when to put a signature or logo on your images, trying to wrangle energetic kids during a family session, or feeling overwhelmed by all the technical settings on your camera, I'm here to help you navigate those common hurdles.KEY TOPICS COVEREDSignature & Logo Usage on Photos - Raymond explains when photographers should (and shouldn't) add their signature or logo to images, distinguishing between branding needs and concerns over theft. He notes that landscape photographers may benefit more from signatures due to wider image use, while portrait photographers often don't need them unless for advertising.Managing Kids in Family Photography - The episode offers strategies for keeping young children engaged during sessions, such as making games out of posing or incorporating playful pranks to elicit natural smiles and genuine interaction. These methods lower stress, capture better moments, and leave clients happier.Tackling Technical Overwhelm and Regaining Enjoyment - Listeners struggling with camera settings (like manual white balance, exposure, or composition) are advised to simplify their process—using presets, prioritizing aspects like “moment” over technical perfection, and even shooting for fun with fewer controls, as with film or point-and-shoot cameras, to restore joy.IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS & CONCEPTSWhite Balance: A camera setting that adjusts color temperature to render whites correctly under different lighting conditions, measured in Kelvin.Client Closet: A collection of clothing offered by a photographer for clients to use during shoots.DISCUSSION & REFLECTION QUESTIONSWhy might you choose to add (or not add) your signature to your images?How can playful interaction with children change the outcomes of a photo session?In what ways do issues of confidence versus competence appear in your creative process, and how can you address them?What steps could you take today to get more photography clients, inspired by Raymond's strategies?Sign up for your free CloudSpot Account today at www.DeliverPhotos.comConnect with Raymond!

We all know social media is important. But what's the difference between those who DO social media and those who are social media managers?  This episode's guest, Jon-Stephen “JS” Stansel, breaks down what it really means to be a social media manager. Just because you have a car doesn't make you a mechanic, and just because you have social media accounts doesn't make you a manager. From scheduling content to making the content and posting it, managers wear a lot of hats. What's within their actual scope and what's not? How do you set your social media manager up for success? Plus, what does compromise look like as a manager when your client wants something that clashes with your strategy? JS gives an example of this and how making difficult decisions is just part of the job.  And, JS reveals why change has to happen little by little, even if you want to revamp things right away.  If you're a marketer who wants to polish your social media operations, this is the episode for you.  Let's face it—consumers don't trust ads, but they do trust their favorite creator, that go-to review site, or a friend's recommendation.

Marketing and social media weren't part of Kelly Roach's world when she grew up just above the poverty line in rural Pennsylvania. She cleaned toilets to pay for dance lessons and learned early that hustle trumps circumstance. That same grit propelled her from an entry-level sales desk to the youngest vice president at her Fortune 500 company in just eight years, landing the “impossible” accounts her peers had chased for years. Instead of settling, she rose at 5 a.m. to build a coaching side hustle that became an eight-figure enterprise guiding founders from six to seven figures.
