What would you do if you could interview your role model?‼️

Brooke Sellas of B Squared Media was on previously talking about the thing that she is known for: customer care. This time we're digging into how she got known for it, what it really means to her, and her motivations behind it. This is an especially relatable conversation because despite owning a successful marketing agency, appearing on massive stages such as Social Media Marketing World and Inbound, co-hosting a few prominent podcasts, and writing a book on her topic of expertise, Brooke initially struggled to put herself out there in each of those situations. In all cases, it was a nudge from someone else who believed in her that helped Brooke get to those next levels of visibility and thought leadership. As you'll hear today, she is starting to take the reins a little bit more herself, and recognizing after all these years of all of this external validation showing that, yes, actually she is an expert, she does have something to say that people need to hear from her specifically, she's finally recognizing that these people may be onto something. She's ready to start not just accepting these opportunities, but creating these opportunities and guiding where she wants her personal brand to go. I hope Brooke takes a listen to this episode and says, “Wow, I sound pretty smart.” (Because she does.)Here's some of what we get into in today's conversation:How Brooke came to start B Squared MediaHow she got started in social media to begin withExpanding the agency beyond herselfHer professional point of difference“Think Conversation, Not CampaignTM”Why customer conversations are so vitalStepping into her personal brandGetting on stagesCo-hosting podcastsWriting her book, “Conversations That Connect”The future of Brooke's personal brandBrooke's true (professional) loveThe need Brooke truly solves for her clientsThe power of goofinessFind Brooke:LinkedInB Squared MediaBook:Conversations That Connect: How to Connect, Converse, and Convert Through Social Media Listening and Social-Led Customer Care❤️Get Started on Your Personal Brand Journey with a sampling of Christine's Personal Branding Questions here: https://www.gritmon.com/talkaboutmybrandSubscribe to the Let's Talk About Brand Newsletter that goes out weekly to ensure you don't miss a beat!

How do we, and should we, use TikTok? This is a question that comes up frequently in my day-to-day and, to be honest, one I've been avoiding. Why? Because I feel there's so many questions about this platform. BUT let's stop avoiding and dive on into some of the answers today with the help of a true TikTok expert and an incredibly fun guest!  I decided to bring in the top expert herself, the incredible Keenya Kelly. Many people appreciate that TikTok is an amazing platform to build on, but the questions seem to always remain:  how do we do it? Where do we start? Should we be spending much time on it? Well, it's time to enter the TikTok Queen. Keenya is someone I had the opportunity to meet a couple of years ago at Social Media Marketing World, one of the biggest Social Media marketing conferences globally, held every year in San Diego. Keenya didn't grow up with technology in her back pocket but adopted it to grow her business.

Keenya runs her own organization, has grown a business from scratch to over 500,000 followers and generated over $2 million through vertical video alone. She is passionate about, and skilled at, building marketing funnels using video to generate leads. In this episode, she shares some of the strategies she uses to achieve her incredible success. Every day, Keenya helps people globally grow their businesses using TikTok, but it's not just about using TikTok — it's how you use it with your other tools. These are just some of the things I'm excited to explore with you in this energetic episode!  Want to know how to use TikTok, where to start, and key strategies for 2024?

As we celebrate 500 episodes of Podcast Talent Coach, I want to share with you six mentors who have shaped my journey over the past 10 years. LEARNING FROM MENTORS I learned long ago that I don't know everything and never will. Every experience is an opportunity to learn something. Conferences and conventions are always such a powerful experience for me. Many people say they rarely go to the session and instead have conversations in the halls. I can understand that. But, I think they are missing the power of the collective mind. Mingling in the halls during a conference will definitely grow your network. It has a place in your business. However if you skip all the sessions, you are missing ideas that could take your business to an entirely new level. We would attend the Country Radio Seminar every year in radio. I would travel with my music director for the station. During the day, we would take in all the sessions of the conferences. At night, we would split up to attend events and network with artists and record labels. From the sessions, we would learn new ideas to implement with the stations. At night, we would network with people who could help us implement those ideas. Then one day our company decided it wasn't necessary for both of us to be there. That single decision cut our learning in half and diminished the networking we were able to do. The company thought the conference was nothing but a party. It may have been for those who spent all of their time in the halls. When you're learning from mentors and expanding your thinking, things are possible beyond your imagination. These six mentors helped my achieve levels bigger than I every dreamed. It is my hope that these nuggets spur some new ideas for you as well. DAN MILLER The first is the mentor who has influenced my life the longest. Dan Miller's book and podcast "48 Days To The Work You Love" inspired me to follow my dream and start my own business. Dan is author of the New York Times best-selling 48 Days To The Work You Love and Wisdom Meets Passion, No More Dreaded Monday and An Understanding Heart. His 48 Days Podcast consistently ranks in the top 1% of all podcasts worldwide and his 48DaysEagles.com community is viewed as an example around the world for those seeking to find – or create – the work and the life they love. His podcast sits at the center of his multiple streams of income. Unfortunately, we lost Dan in January of this year after a very brief battle with cancer. Dan's attitude through that entire struggle was impressive and uplifting. He kept asking as he always did, "What does this make possible?" Dan saw the silver lining in every cloud. He was an amazing man and a mentor to me in so many ways. Dan joined my on Episode 466 to discuss multiple streams of income. You can find the episode at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/466. DAN'S NUGGETS Here are a few nuggets from that episode. Resilience in the Face of Adversity: "When we hit Covid and I couldn't have live events for a couple years there, that had been a big resource for us, a big revenue stream, but not being able to have live events, it didn't really affect us. My revenue continued to go up because we made content available to people in other ways that they could experience, even if they didn't come to Franklin, Tennessee."— Dan Miller 00:24:39 – 00:25:03. Life Reassessment in Midlife Careers: "What surprised me is I had doctors and dentists and pastors and engineers and accountants showing up and why you guys here? And it was like, well, we're doing okay. You know, everybody looking in from the outside to see us is doing okay, but I don't think this is it."— Dan Miller 00:26:29 – 00:26:45. How to Turn Your Writing into Income: "How do you take just a raw idea and turn it into real income? But those came directly from people asking, how do I do that?"— Dan Miller 00:30:42 – 00:30:50. Easy Income Streams for Podcasters: "The easiest next step is coaching. Because if you have a podcast and you're talking about personal development and growth or business success or how to scale or those things, you're inevitably going to have people ringing your doorbell saying, can I talk to you?"— Dan Miller 00:44:47 – 00:45:43. I'll always cherish everything I've learned from Dan and all the inspiration he provided. You can find more about Dan at https://www.48days.com. MARC MAWHINNEY The next mentor who has been a big influence on me over the past decade and 500 episodes was one of my very first coaches. Marc Mawhinney is a lifelong entrepreneur who helps coaches get more clients without paid advertising! He achieves this with his coaching programs, his podcast Natural Born Coaches, his Facebook group The Coaching Jungle, and his Secret Coach Club. Marc has been a speaker at events like Social Media Marketing World, frequently makes media appearances and contributes for Entrepreneur.com. He is a master at joint venture partnerships. I discovered Marc through his Coaching Jungle Facebook group and he soon became my coach. He taught me the power of sending a daily email. Our coaching sessions helped me refine my offers and get my business to the next level.  Marc appeared on episode 333 with me to discuss the power of joint venture partnerships. You can find the episode at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/333. MARC'S GEMS Here are a few gems Marc shared during our conversation. Stand Firm on Your Beliefs: "Sure, you're going to turn some people off, but you're going to attract the people who you want to attract, and that's exactly what you do."— Marc Mawhinney 00:16:25 – 00:16:31. The Importance of Community for Coaches: "Whatever you do, you need a place to gather your potential clients. You know, people to get to know, like and trust you."— Marc Mawhinney 00:20:27 – 00:20:34. Viral Topic - The Power of Community: "I can't count how many times someone said to me, mark, I love your Facebook group. It's helped me so much the last few years."— Marc Mawhinney 00:20:55 – 00:21:44. I can't thank Marc enough for pointing me in the right direction with his coaching. Find Marc in his Coaching Jungle Facebook group. CINDY J. HOLBROOK One day Marc was invited to participate in a giveaway. It didn't fit in his marketing plan at the time, so he sent the organizer to me feeling we might work well together. That organizer was Cindy J, The Visibility Wiz. Not only did I participate in her giveaway, Cindy soon became my next coach and she's one of the best in the business. Cindy guides entrepreneurs and small business owners to thrive as you go up the ladder from being the best-kept secret to Trusted and In-Demand Authority. She has been coaching since 2009. Through our work together, Cindy taught me the power of visibility, how to use giveaways to grow my list, and ways to partner with others.  She is simply an all around great person. I love her to death and really appreciate all she has given me over the years. Cindy was on episode 479 of Podcast Talent Coach to talk about visibility. You can find the episode at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/479. CINDY'S SUGGESTIONS Here are a few things we learned in that episode. From Social Services to Coaching Success: "But I have all this knowledge of the online world that I utilized to get clients. And, I was able to leave social services within 2 years of becoming a coach, and that's when I started attending a lot of events. And people were constantly coming up to me."— Cindy J. Holbrook 00:20:23 – 00:20:41. Title: Maximizing Advertising DollarsQuote: "My advertising dollars goes towards participating in giveaways or speaking in front of people, you know, being a sponsor at events. That's where my advertising dollars go because I get more return on my money that way."— Cindy J. Holbrook 00:35:04 – 00:35:18. The Power of Collaboration: "I didn't start collaborating with other experts till, 2014. And that's what finally pushed me over to 6 figures was whenever I started collaborating with other experts."— Cindy J. Holbrook 00:39:11 – 00:39:24. How to Boost Your Business Today: "If you start doing something every day, you make sure you do at least 1 money making activity Monday through Friday or whatever your workdays are. You're going to start seeing an increase in everything, in visibility, influence, and profits."— Cindy J. Holbrook 00:42:44 – 00:42:58. Cindy is amazing when it come to leveling up your visibility. Find her online at https://www.cindyjholbrook.com. IMAN AGHAY After I was working with Cindy for a few months, she suggest I attend Collaborate. It was an amazing 3-day event to meet JV partners. This one event changed my business more than I could ever have imagined. At the time, Collaborate was run by Iman Aghay and Rich German. Iman has been so influential in so many aspects of my business. Through this event, Iman taught me how to properly joint venture with others. He has taught me how to create my courses and events. More importantly, Iman showed my how to sell what I do. Iman Aghay is a serial entrepreneur, international speaker, and a nine-time #1 best-selling author. He is best known as the co-founder of Actionera, a platform that assists experts in building mobile apps to enhance their income and impact. Iman hasn't been on the podcast. However, I did a deep dive into finding promotional partners using everything Iman taught me. You can find that in episode 391 at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/391. IMAN'S INSPIRATION Here are few takeaways from that episode. How to Skyrocket Your Podcast Growth: "Just imagine how your podcast and your business could grow if you could find 40 partners who would be willing to promote you to their fans, to their tribe, to their followers."— Erik K. Johnson 00:01:07 – 00:01:14. The Best Part of Pitch Refinement: "But the best part is everybody in the circle's on the same page with regard to who talks, what they talk about, how long they talk. There's no pressure. You don't need to awkwardly walk up to anyone to strike up a conversation like you would in a at a networking event."— Erik K. Johnson 00:06:20 – 00:06:38. Power of Partnerships: "I've been able to grow my email list from about 500 to nearly 4,500. My podcast downloads have doubled. I've made affiliate commissions from promoting those partners, and I had partners promote my courses and my coaching to their audience as well just to help me grow."— Erik K. Johnson 00:10:08 – 00:10:30. The Power of Partnership: "If you wanna go fast, travel alone. If you wanna go far, travel together."— Erik K. Johnson 00:10:53 – 00:11:01.

JIM PADILLA While I was attending one of the Collaborate events, Iman invited a guest speaker to that event. That guest talked a lot about actually making sales. He was Jim Padilla and he is my fifth mentor on this journey. Jim is a Global Impact Strategist & Investor and the founder and CEO of Gain The Edge. It's a done-for-you provider of industry-leading sales systems and unicorn sales professionals. Jim co-heads Gain the Edge with his amazing wife, Cyndi Padilla. The two of them have generated over quarter billion dollars in sales for a long line of high-level entrepreneurs. Jim's mission is to help purpose-driven thought-leaders untangle themselves from the day-to-day minutiae of seeking leads and sales, so they're free to amplify their impact - while scaling their business! Shortly after getting into Jim's world, he became my coach. Jim helps me build my sales systems and strategies. I've gone from being an entrepreneur to actually running a business. The transformation has been amazing. Jim joined me on episode 465 to discuss making sales. If you want to increase your sales, find this episode at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/465. JIM'S GENIUS Here are few nuggets from my conversation with Jim. From Struggle to Success: "And little did I know that, you know, 20 years later, I'd be making 1,000,000 of dollars teaching other people how to read the room and how to bend influence in their direction so you can be asset instead of a threat to the people who show up in your world, and then they wanna be able to buy from you and give you their credit card."— Jim Padilla 00:12:06 – 00:12:58. The Core of True Expertise: "What people need to dive into is they understand that you're an expert, but they really need to understand who you are as a person and why what you do matters."— Jim Padilla 00:19:07 – 00:19:11. Seeing Opportunities in Chaos: "All they see is all the problems that are in the world are truly just opportunities waiting to be solved if you know how to talk about it and know how to articulate it and to see things differently."— Jim Padilla 00:24:57 – 00:25:04. Maximizing Your Existing Network: "Most obvious buyers you have are the people who already bought from you."— Jim Padilla 00:44:07 – 00:44:10. Jim and Cyndi are amazing. Find them at https://www.gaintheedgenow.com. DAVE JACKSON The last mentor I want to share with you is the guy who became the inspiration for this podcast. In 2013 I was writing articles about podcasting for New Media Expo. Out of the blue, I got an email from Dave Jackson at the School of Podcasting. He was interested in having a conversation to see how we might support each other. During that conversation, Dave said he loved my articles. Then he asked why I didn't have a podcast of my own. Great question, Dave. If I'm writing about podcasting, shouldn't I have a show of my own. Shortly after that conversation, this show was born. And our friendship has continued over the years. Dave Jackson launched the School of Podcasting in 2005. He was inducted into the Podcasting Hall of Fame in 2018. He is the author of the book, Profit from Your Podcast: Proven Strategies to Turn Listeners into a Livelihood. Over the years he has launched over 30 different podcasts with over 4 million downloads. Dave and I currently co-host the Podcast Review Show where we help podcasters improve. You can find that show at https://www.podcastreviewshow.com. Dave was a guest on episode 485 to talk all things podcasting. You can listen to that episode at www.podcasttalentcoach.com/485. DAVE'S BRILLIANCE Here are a few takeaways from my conversation with Dave. Viral Topic: The Importance of Mic Technique: "When I moved into this house had no carpet, and it was just this giant echo chamber. So the first thing I did was, like, okay. We need we need a carpet. We need some rug, something like that."— Dave Jackson 00:32:58 – 00:33:07. The Blue Yeti Misconception: "Technically, it's not a bad microphone, but what most people overlook is that thing can pick up, if you want, in every single direction. Well, that's just screaming, pick up the neighbor's lawnmower and everything else."— Dave Jackson 00:33:44 – 00:33:57. Mastering Freelance Success: "If I'm trying to position myself as an expert, I either want to interview people who know the people that should be hiring me or in some cases, just interview the people who should be hiring me."— Dave Jackson 00:37:54 – 00:38:03. Big thanks to Dave Jackson for all the help and inspiration over the years. Find Dave at www.SchoolofPodcasting.com. FIND YOUR MENTOR Those are six mentors who have had the biggest impact on my journey.

From my wife Jen, to Jon Fugler and the various members of our mastermind over the years. From the clients, partners, and supporters, each has played a part in this journey.

In this insightful Cody Wanner Podcast, he shares his personal and professional experiences, emphasizing the importance of embracing imperfections. He discusses how the pressure to be perfect can stifle creativity and hinder progress. By allowing oneself to be imperfect and even laugh at mistakes, Cody believes individuals can unlock greater creative potential and find more joy in their work. This lesson is especially pertinent in today's highly polished social media landscape, where perfection often seems to be an unrealistic goal.Don't Give UpCody's journey underscores the significance of persistence. He recounts how his initial videos were far from perfect, yet he continued to create, learn, and improve. Cody made over a hundred videos before he felt confident in the goal. This perseverance is a crucial takeaway for anyone aspiring to succeed in content creation or any other field. The key is to keep producing and iterating, understanding that each attempt is a step towards improvement. Cody's story is a testament to the power of showing up consistently, despite the inevitable imperfections and setbacks.Be YourselfStaying true to your values in life overall is something Cody does really well. This theme of authenticity is clear across all of his content and Cody's overall story.Developing a genuine presence on camera was a process that took him a long time to feel comfortable with. But now it's definitely, definitely a strong suit. He explains that this authenticity resonates with audiences and builds a deeper connection. Cody's experience highlights that finding one's true voice is a journey that requires time, patience, and a lot of practice. It's about being real and relatable, rather than striving for saying some sort of script. This might be the biggest creator misconception. It doesn't matter how many people consume your work. It doesn't matter how polished it is. What matters most is how well you connect with the audience.No ExcusesCody also opens up about his ADHD diagnosis and how it has influenced his life and work. By embracing ADHD, figuring out more of what it means in his specific case and coming up with ways to channel it into a positive, Cody better understands how to leverage his unique strengths. Working within his constraints, with his capabilities can actually keep him in his zone of genius. This acceptance has allowed him to create in a way that feels natural and fulfilling. His story is a powerful reminder that understanding and working with one's inherent traits, rather than against them, can lead to greater productivity and satisfaction.Building Community Is An Infinite GameLastly, the conversation touches on the importance of community and support. Being a creator can be super lonely. It can also feel like pushing a massive boulder up a hill. The goal is to eventually hit a tipping point so it rolls down with momentum. But on the way up it can be a grind. Leaning into your community (even if it's your first two subscribers) can help build momentum quicker and the trust can grow forever. Cody also talks about the value of having mentors and a supportive network, which can provide guidance, encouragement, and opportunities for growth. Building and nurturing your relationships with mentors, collaborators, audience and customers can be a game-changer in your creative and professional journey. Cody's insights remind us that we are not alone in our struggles and aspirations, and seeking out a supportive community can make all the difference.Practical Tips for Aspiring CreatorsEmbrace Imperfection: Cody highlights the importance of not taking life too seriously and allowing oneself to be imperfect. This mindset leads to greater creativity and satisfaction in one's work.Persistence Pays Off: Success on platforms like YouTube often comes down to persistence. Cody emphasizes the need to keep creating and iterating, even when initial efforts seem subpar.Authenticity on Camera: Developing a genuine presence on camera takes time and practice. Cody shares his journey of making over 100 videos before feeling truly authentic.Understanding ADHD: Cody discusses his diagnosis of ADHD and how it has shaped his approach to work and creativity. Embracing his ADHD has allowed him to work with his unique strengths.Leveraging Your Strengths: Identifying and focusing on your strengths, rather than conforming to traditional expectations, can lead to greater personal and professional fulfillment.Community and Support: Building a supportive network and finding mentors can significantly impact your creative journey. Cody shares how these relationships have helped him thrive.Memorable Quotes“I love the idea of just making people smile.”“When I'm told to do something, there is a part of me, sometimes a big part of me, sometimes a little part of me, that wants to do the exact opposite.”“At the end of the day, getting stuff out there is more important than any of the other stuff.”“I made 114 videos on my vlog channel until I started to feel like it was clicking.”Guest BioCody Wanner is dedicated to encouraging the doers and spreading the #NoSmallCreator mindset. He began his journey with a daily vlog, starting with just 111 subscribers and vlogging every day for a full year.

When most people use AI assistants like ChatGPT, they type in a prompt and expect the perfect results without giving it any more info. They don't take the time to have a fluid conversation or let the tool get to know them. No wonder they hate the results they get!   Expecting your AI to just know what to produce is like hiring a new team member and giving them zero training. It's like expecting a recipe to be perfect without any seasoning. In order to get the results we want from AI, we have to train them on our voice, who we are and what's different about our brands. It's as simple as letting AI learn our VOICE.   How do we engage with AI so that it's trained on our voice and our data set? What can Whitney Houston songs teach us about leveraging AI?   In this episode, I'm joined by digital growth strategist and AI aficionado, Molly Mahoney. She shares all the exciting ways we can use AI…after we season it right.   The number one thing you have to keep in mind is dancing with AI. You need to give enough information by having a fluid conversation with these tools. -Molly Mahoney     Things You'll Learn In This Episode    -Think Whitney Houston  A Whitney Houston song doesn't start with the high-note. How do we apply the build-up of her music to our own AI adventures?    -Amplify your AI expertise  Knowing how to use AI doesn't just elevate things inside your business. How can it get you on more stages, help you launch new products, and up what you earn?    -The killer combination in AI proficiency  Why do we have to marry the logic and efficiency of AI with the empathy, creativity and language of human beings?    -What you can do with AI right now  With AI, it's important to remember that it gets better and capable of more every single day. From personalized chat-bots to AI generated videos of us, what are the possibilities?    Guest Bio   Molly Mahoney (known as The Prepared Performer) is a digital growth strategist who specializes in creating authentic video content and leveraging organic social and chat automation marketing to skyrocket client sales.
