Join us as they discuss how women are just now coming into their own in Entrepreneurship and in doing so are changing the game of how companies need to be built. Melinda shares her insights as to how women are developing business models that empower their teams, create good cultures, and are doing great things for the world. Melinda has observed that a significant contributor to this is that women come to Entrepreneurship later than men with more established skill sets that are actionable within the arena. Lesley and Melinda speak to the listeners about how this explains why 20 years in, women founded companies are still only receiving 2% of the venture capital dollars available and are still outdistancing male founded businesses on a consistent basis. Melinda speaks to the listeners of the importance of women becoming comfortable with failure, understanding it is a natural part of the process and reframing it as feedback. Speaking from years of working with and around women she shares how essential it is for women to learn to be able to have it all, and shares tips for embracing this as a personal realization. Being a podcaster who has founded Podopolo to support podcasters understand their audiences more deeply, Melinda shares vital tips on how to leverage our podcaster voices and build a platform that fulfills their original vision.   Melinda Wittstock is a 5-time serial in media-tech entrepreneur and the CEO and Founder Podopolo, the interactive podcast network that brings content to life by automatically connecting people to their perfect podcasts and people - and makes podcasting profitable for creators.

Melinda Wittstock is a serial entrepreneur who has built 4 businesses in media and tech to 7 and 8 figures. She's now building her 5th business as CEO and founder of Wings Media, the first interactive, social and “gamified” podcast network and audience engagement platform. Launching in Q2 2020 with an initial 50 podcasts with more than 100 million downloads, Melinda's innovative mobile platform shares revenue with podcasters.

Melinda also helps business owners and entrepreneurs launch magnetic and profitable podcasts. A passionate advocate for women entrepreneurs, Melinda also hosts the transformational luxury retreat and peer-to-peer mastermind “Wings of The Empowered Women” for successful women entrepreneurs committed to #liftasweclimb. Formerly an award-winning journalist and TV anchor for the BBC, ABC News, CNBC/Financial Times Television and MSNBC, Melinda created and grew a BBC show to a 20 million audience and also innovated one of the first crowd-sourcing mobile apps, growing unique users to 3 million in 8 months. Steve Jobs told her she “asked the best questions” when she interviewed him as a 24-year-old correspondent of the Times of London. She was also the CEO and Founder of Verifeed, the social intelligence platform assuring a Return on Authenticity™ from social media engagement.

What the podcast will teach you: Why only 15% of podcasters earn money from their podcast, despite podcasts being the fastest-growing content medium Why knowing your audience is vital to monetization but most tools today are insufficient, and how Melinda has built a “gamified” platform to help engage with listeners How Melinda's broad experience in media has given her a unique perspective on podcasting and the ability to recognize and address pain points for podcasters How Podopolo™ was designed to be the best-in-class podcast platform and is the first and only podcast platform to share revenue with podcasters Why the biggest challenge Melinda faced after reaching seven-figures in revenue was learning to get out of her own way, and why she views mistakes as learning experiences Why maintaining the right level of control without micromanaging and filling the team with the right people has been the secret to Melinda's business growth How relinquishing control and giving your team room to grow and develop new solutions can motivate them, while micromanaging your team is incredibly demotivating How Melinda struggled to adjust to “being the boss” when her team got large enough that she didn't know everyone, and how she overcame her concerns of not being liked Why fear of the unknown and clinging to the familiar during periods of growth is a real problem, and how activities like meditation can help you conquer them Why a growing company needs a visionary who is free from day-to-day operations and who can be proactive rather than reactive Resources: Website: www.podopolo.com Website: www.melindawittstock.com/ Wings of the Empowered Woman Retreat: https://wingsexperiences.com/optin-2672225535211777 Profit From Podcasting 7-step guide: www.wingspodcast.com/liftoff Work with Melinda: www.melindawittstock.com/work-with-me/ LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/melindawittstock/

Or another way of saying that it is just as difficult to create a small business as it is to create a big business. So first of all don't limit yourself artificially. The second thing is make sure you are in alignment with your business. Make sure that what you are doing truly does align to your true purpose in life, your talents, what you love to do, your strengths, and your mission. Because to be an entrepreneur is to ride a roller-coaster of ups and downs and palpitating moments where you are struggling. And if it's not connected to some higher purpose or mission it's very very difficult in those moments” …[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-6OF
