A few episodes ago, we talked about why it’s important to simplify your expertise so that people who don’t share your knowledge of a subject can care about what you have to say. In last week’s episode, I spoke with marketing consultant, Wes Gay, about practical steps that subject matter experts can take to cut the jargon and speak clearly so people will listen, In continuing with this theme, I’m now discussing some mistakes experts make that end sabotaging their message by making other people feel dumb. In this episode, I share how my 13-year-old daughter’s hatred for people who talk down to her because of her age is a perfect lesson in how to talk to your audience, how talking down to your audience is disrespectful to them, why you should use your “normal” voice when talking to your audience, the reasons I sometimes don’t talk in my normal voice, why your tone is just as important as your words, and more.

Wes Gay is a writer, entrepreneur, and marketing consultant. He is a StoryBrand Certified Copywriter and Guide, helping businesses clarify their marketing message and strengthen their position in the marketplace. While this is Wes’ second appearance on the Voice of Influence podcast, he and I originally connected because I was looking for help with my own marketing efforts. In this episode, Wes and I discuss what the “curse of knowledge” is and why all experts should be aware of it, why every expert needs to have empathy when it comes to their audience if they want their marketing efforts to truly resonate with them, the importance of giving yourself time and space to think, why it’s crucial that you’re empowering your audience rather than talking down to them, why you want to be as specific as possible when it comes to who the audience you’re trying to reach, the value of creating one central idea you want to communicate, his tips for determining what the central idea should be, his take on how Dr. Fauci handled the topic of facemasks in the recent pandemic, why you should have a clear villain in the stories you share with your audience, and more.

Wes Gay became a StoryBrand Guide—and later Agency—after being fired from his job at a church during a leadership transition period. Though churches frequently have casualties of a turnover season, he was permanently branded with a “Scarlet Letter F” after the event. No job wanted to consider him, regardless of his skills and talent. With little more than a strong admiration of Donald Miller, a loaf of bread, peanut butter, and some bananas, Wes traveled to Nashville to take the StoryBrand Marketing training when it first came out. A natural on stage due to his background in the church and learning from successful pastors, Wes knew his strengths and was able to use them to help gain traction in his career. Of the lessons he's learned, Wes has great advice to offer: Generosity is a competitive advantage. Show your authority rather than just talk about it. As much as you can, put people first. Empathy is one of the greatest skills you can practice for your business. And, Find the right balance between the short and long term gains for your business.One of the ways Wes got started was by being generous with his advice. He'd offer solutions to people's problems before asking them to pay for his time or effort. Generosity allowed him to demonstrate his authority and get three clients right off the bat. By putting people first, he's able to find his customers where they are and work with people who want to listen to his advice and hear his solutions. Wes knows you have to think about your business from the lens of the consumer to be able to reach them and help them. Wes understands the importance of finding a balance between the short and long game of running a business, which, after growing up around peanut farming all his life, he describes as the difference between farming and running to the grocery store. Though you can always run to the store to get a bag of peanuts, and sometimes it's necessary to bring in immediate income, you should also be planting seeds so that you can gain revenue in six, nine, or twelve months from now. A long-term healthy business knows how to do both. Wes's job, as he describes it is to do for his clients “what they do for the people, which is: help them figure out the path they need to go.” He gives them an outside perspective so everyone can stick to what they're good at and reach the level of success they're striving for.

In this episode, I had the chance to chat with Wes Gay, about a show we both love: Songland. If you’re unfamiliar with Songland, it’s a songwriting competition where four unknown songwriters present their original songs to superstar artists. The artist then chooses three of the songwriters to move on to the next round, where they work with professional songwriters to tweak and improve their songs based on their expertise. Then, the artist picks his or her favorite, and turns it into one of their singles. We often forget that more often than not, songs are STORIES! Here's how your favorite songs can inspire your own marketing and content.

In this episode of the Everybody Brands Podcast we have a conversation with Wes Gay about how we should define a brand and what a marketer or business owner focus on now, especially in uncertain times: branding or marketing. Wes Gay is the founder of Wayfinder and a StoryBrand Certified Guide & Copywriter. Wes’ experience as a former pastor gives him the empathy and credibility to help leaders create a clearer message for their companies using the StoryBrand Framework.Wes worked in churches and nonprofits for 10 years, including running a thrift store.  Wes began his journey to entrepreneurship the way many of us do: He had been unemployed for about six months and couldn't get anywhere after coming out of a difficult kind of church experience. Little did he know three and a half years later being a copywriter and marketing consultant would become his real job. While Wes and Brian approach their work from different backgrounds, both guide companies integrate and implement the StoryBrand framework, a storytelling and marketing model that is proven to help any business or brand to create clear messaging and grow through consistent implementation.Wes and Brian talk about how we should define a brand and the interplay between the disciplines of branding and marketing.“How we talk about ourselves in the verbal version of branding is something that a lot of smaller and big businesses struggle to figure out. Most branding agencies only focus on the visual stuff. How are you going to talk about yourself in a way where people care, and people understand either the problem you solve or the solution you provide?”Connect with Wes Gay atWesGay.comWes Gay on LinkedInThis episode is brought to you by Websites Made Simple.  Download a free ebook, 8 Things Every Website Needs to Engage Customers, to find out what simple changes you can make so your website helps you grow your business and make more money.
