You're showing up. You're publishing every week. So why does it still feel like no one's listening?That's the question Conrad—documentary filmmaker and host of The First Responder Wellness Podcast—was asking when he came to me for help. He's nearly 80 episodes in and reaching first responders across the country… but getting no reviews, no shares, and not enough listener engagement to know if the podcast is actually helping anyone.In this Fix My Pod coaching session, we dig into why this happens and the exact shifts you can make to turn passive listeners into people who reach out, leave reviews without being asked, and start sharing your episodes in group chats saying, “You have to hear this!”So if your show feels more like a weekly conversation with the four walls in your studio rather than a tool for connection and growth with real listeners, this episode will show you how to fix it. Hit play and let's dive in.Want more help creating a podcast that gets attention—and gets results?  Apply for on-air coaching here (spots are limited).4:56 – 80 Episodes In and Still No Listener Engagement?

In one of the most personal episodes of Profits with Pajak, John shares a vulnerable moment that changed everything, a breakdown in the car with his wife and daughter where he finally said the quiet part out loud: he wanted to hurt himself. What followed wasn't instant healing… but surrender. John explains how his lowest point became the turning point. Not through Scripture, but through the undeniable presence of The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. This episode is a raw, honest look at faith, mental health, and redemption.  And how prayer, repentance, and showing up to church week after week helped pull him back from the edge and into a life of purpose. If you're carrying silent pain behind your business, this one's for you.

Let us hear from you!Watch this episode on YouTube.What is child support really for? When a parent pays a set amount each month, does that cover every single expense for the children, including seasonal necessities like snow boots? We break down a viral Reddit post from a mom questioning the purpose of the $200 per child she receives monthly.  Her ex-husband claims his child support payments cover his half of new snow boots, even telling the kids he's already paid for them. Join us as we discuss the fundamental legal and ethical obligations of both parents when it comes to financially supporting their children.  We'll explore:- The primary purpose of child support (Hint: It's for necessities like housing, food, and utilities). - Whether the paying parent has a right to control how the money is spent. - The damaging effects of discussing child support payments with your children. - How custody arrangements, like 50/50 splits, factor into the equation. Whether you're paying or receiving child support, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.Disclaimer: This podcast provides general information and discussions about legal topics.

In this episode I discuss a common hurdle many business owners face: the $5 million bottleneck. Drawing from my experience as a CFO, I outline how business growth often stalls around this revenue point due to the founder's over-involvement in day-to-day operations. I highlight the importance of developing systems, delegating responsibilities, and creating clear organizational structures to overcome this challenge. Join me as I share actionable strategies to help you scale your business, empower your leadership team, and transition from a reactive to a proactive management style.   What You'll hear in this episode: [00:50] Symptoms of the Bottleneck [03:10] The Importance of Systems and Processes [04:05] Risks of Inconsistent Decision Making [05:05] Breaking Free from the Bottleneck [08:12] Creating Functional Accountability [10:00] Empowering Your Team [12:35] Mindset Shifts for Effective Delegation [14:50] Taking Ownership as a Leader   If you like this episode, check out: Harness the Benefits of an Accountable Plan in Your Business Use This Hack to Hire Financial Experts in Your Business How to Scale Without Losing Margin   Want to learn more so you can earn more?  Visit keepwhatyouearn.com to dive deeper on our episodes  Visit keepwhatyouearncfo.com to work with Shannon and her team  Watch this episode and more here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMlIuZsrllp1Uc_MlhriLvQ  Connect with Shannon on IG: https://www.instagram.com/shannonkweinstein/   The information contained in this podcast is intended for educational purposes only and is not individual tax advice.

Spotify just rolled out a new feature called “Plays” that shows your episode play counts publicly inside their app. But this move isn't about helping creators. It's about algorithmically manipulating what used to be a level playing field—and it benefits Spotify, not you.Worse? It distracts you from the metrics that actually show if your podcast is working. And for independent, niche hosts, this one visible number will breed unhealthy comparison, magnify self-doubt, and drive thousands of talented podcasters to quit before their show ever has a chance to grow.In this episode, we're breaking down what you need to know about this new metric, why it tells you nothing about the true health of your show, and what to focus on instead if you want a real understanding of how your content is resonating with listeners.Want to know what smart podcasters are tracking instead?

The rules of business are constantly evolving – and it doesn't matter what industry you're in. To stay ahead, we must shift our focus from merely keeping up with the competition to setting the standard ourselves. Innovation isn't just a buzzword; it's the key to relevance and longevity in the marketplace.   Consider this: according to the Wild Newsletter, a staggering 52% of Fortune 500 companies have either faced bankruptcy, been acquired, or disappeared entirely due to stagnation. The cost of inaction is far too high.   So, how can your business ignite change, disrupt the status quo, and lead the way in your sector?   This is a crucial question—because failing to innovate can spell disaster.   In this episode of "It's Your Business," join Christy Maxfield, President and CEO of Purpose First Advisors, Dean Barta, Founder and CEO of Barta Business Group, and your host, Jess Dewell, Managing Partner at Red Direction. Together, they dive into three key areas that will help you navigate the whirlwind of change your business faces:   1. Discover the catalyst that will drive your change. 2. Learn how to identify trends that shape your priorities and decisions. 3. Explore existing resources and strengths you can leverage for sustainable change.   You'll walk away with insights to tackle the pivotal question: How can our businesses not just keep pace but become the catalytic force, the disruptor, and the standard-setter, ensuring we remain relevant and drive our industry forward? Tune in and get ready to innovate!   --------------------   If you want to identify business bottlenecks, the necessary skills, the initial actions to take, the expected milestones, and the priorities for achieving growth, try the “Growth Framework Reset” approach. This will help you keep learning and growing while working strategically on your business. -------------------- You can get in touch with Jess Dewell on Twitter,  LinkedIn or Red Direction website.

Paid Support for Your Business/Professional Business Service Many business owners would benefit from some professional business service when cash flow isn't great and things aren't working.  While it's prudent to preserve cash when finances are tight, waiting too long to get professional business advice can cause problems to escalate to the point of no return. I am a business owner on the end of the spectrum who was more open to hiring help than delaying.  Hiring the wrong help at the wrong time didn't help my progress and hurt my cash flow.  But timing it right when and who to pay to help me paid big dividends. Small businesses are the heartblood of our nation.  I have a heart for business owners wanting to have thriving businesses that can support their families, while still putting God, their relationships, and their purpose first.  I strive to help entrepreneurs find that sweet spot of timing, the kind of professional support that will allow them to flourish at just the right time. Please find the right professional business service that will give you the ROI you deserve, the stress reduction you need, and the joy of having a business that is fun to run and generates great profits.

Bill and Bryan continue their deep dive into evolving buyer behavior with some eye-opening insights that challenge conventional sales wisdom. In this episode, they tackle the myth of "the decision maker." They explore how buying by committee has become the new normal and why your traditional one-to-one sales training might be preparing you for a world that no longer exists. The guys also discuss the critical importance of elevating the buyer experience beyond just data dumps, why price objections aren't as prominent as they used to be (and the generational factors behind this shift), and how successful salespeople need to paint a clear picture of transformation rather than just making promises. Whether you're struggling to navigate complex buying committees or wondering why your data-heavy presentations aren't closing deals, this episode offers strategies for adapting to today's buyer reality. ================================= Is it time to make a BOLD move in your business?

To be a great finance leader, one needs to have both hard and soft skills. Today's guest believes in running towards the hard market, asking dumb questions, and showing up as your whole self at work. Craig Conti is the EVP and CFO of Verra Mobility, the almost $900 million in revenue, publicly-traded company that is responsible for the silent infrastructure behind seamless tolling, traffic enforcement, and smart mobility. Apart from providing a visual breakdown of his approach to mitigating risk, he shares a wealth of wisdom from his years in finance. Hear about why Craig prioritizes investing in existing customers when it comes to capital allocation and how he explains Verra Mobility's complex business model to non-finance people in the organization.

Implementing Entrepreneurial Operating Systems (EOS) in Your Business with Derek Newcomer   Have you ever felt like you were great at your craft—but struggling to build a real business around it? You're not alone. In this episode of The Profit Answer Man, we talk to someone who lived that exact journey and came out stronger for it. Meet Derek Newcomer—a former fitness entrepreneur who learned the hard way that being a great coach isn't enough. Today, he's a certified EOS Implementer guiding business owners to gain control, clarity, and consistent results using the Entrepreneurial Operating System.   If you're a business owner feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unable to delegate without chaos, this episode is your wake-up call. Derek's story is proof that you can align your vision, structure your team, and scale without losing your mind—or your money.   In This Episode, You Will Learn: Why being great at your craft doesn't mean you're great at running a business. The hard lessons Derek learned about delegation, leadership, and control. How EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) became the framework that changed everything. The step-by-step process he uses to help teams execute on vision without burning out. Why "letting go of the vine" is one of the hardest—and most profitable—moves you'll ever make.   Key Takeaways: Don't Confuse Skill with Strategy: Derek was a top-tier fitness coach, but success in business required a whole new skill set—systems, delegation, and financial discipline. Delegation Requires Process, Not Just Trust: One of Derek's biggest mistakes was failing to train his team with structured systems. He learned the power of documenting what works and holding others accountable to results. Vision Without Execution Is a Fantasy: EOS helped him—and now his clients—translate big goals into daily actions that actually move the needle. Pain Leads to Clarity: Derek's business struggles became the training ground for the financial and operational clarity he now brings to his clients. Entrepreneurs Need Coaches Too: EOS Implementers act as that strategic, outside perspective to keep business owners out of the weeds and focused on growth.   About Derek Newcomer: Derek Newcomer is a Certified EOS Implementer who's guided over 20 companies through more than 225 full-day EOS sessions. With a background in fitness coaching, leadership development, and executive coaching, Derek brings a unique mix of hands-on experience and strategic insight. He combines business systems, leadership development, and personal growth to help entrepreneurs lead well, scale effectively, and build businesses that serve their lives—not consume them.   Conclusion: Ready to Work On Your Business Instead of In It? This episode is more than just a story—it's a roadmap. If Derek's journey resonated with you, maybe it's time to evaluate your own systems, margins, and team accountability. Want help? Our coaching programs are built around Profit First, EOS, and Scaling Up principles that help business owners like you get back control and boost profitability.

She offers practical tools and reflective questions to help founders, executives, and team leaders clarify their direction and create alignment across people and performance. Tune in to hear: -Why strategy is a set of choices, not just a written plan-How clarity about your customer leads to stronger decisions-Why simplicity outperforms complexity in strategic planning-How to use the right data to make better decisions-Why fast execution beats perfect planning ResourcesThe Advantage by Patrick Lencioni https://amzn.to/4deF7LBTraction: Get a Grip on Your Business by Gino Wickman  https://amzn.to/4mdE5UgThe Lean Startup by Eric Ries https://amzn.to/4kbq47HCreativity, Inc. by Ed Catmull https://amzn.to/4iYbPlS The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership by John Maxwell https://amzn.to/4jUQHhHThe Effective Executive by Peter Drucker https://amzn.to/4mkCL2b Salt & Light AdvisorsLearn more about simplifying executionhttps://www.saltandlightadvisors.com/ Join our weekly newsletter:• HR and operations insights for business professionals: https://www.saltandlightadvisors.com/contact Magic Mind Save $40 off your first order at magicmind.com/KERRIROBERTS ProducifyX For Recruitment Assistance, Tell them Kerri sent you  Connect on IG:https://www.instagram.com/saltandlightadvisorshttps://www.instagram.com/kerrimroberts Check out Don't Waste the Chaos on YouTube:https://youtube.com/@dontwastethechaospodcast Visit our websites:www.kerrimroberts.comwww.saltandlightadvisors.com
