Most podcasters treat email like a checkbox: “Sent the episode to my list—done.” But if that's your whole strategy, it's why no one's clicking. In this episode, email marketing legend and Do This Not That podcast host Jay Schwedelson is back to break down what it actually takes to use email to drive real podcast growth.You'll learn why the first two words of your subject line decide whether your email gets opened, the one stat that can 20x your open rate, and how to grow your list daily using content you're already creating. And if you've ever held back from emailing your list because you “don't want to be annoying,” Jay unpacks how that fear is quietly training your audience to ignore you—and what to do instead. You'll walk away knowing how to write emails people actually want to read, so hitting play feels like the obvious next step.So if you're ready to become the trusted voice your audience actually wants in their inbox (and their earbuds), hit play and let's dive in.3:15 – The Surprising Habit That Trains Your List to Ignore Your "New Episode" Emails6:14 – A Simple Way to Turn Podcast Listeners Into Subscribers (and Vice Versa)16:19 – Two Subject Line Hacks That 20x Open Rates8:15 – 5 Ways to Grow Your Email List From Your Podcast (Without Building a New Freebie Every Time)18:08 – What to Email Your List That Brings People Back to Your ShowEpisode Links:Get instant feedback on your subject lines before you hit send: SubjectLine.comCheck out Jay Schwedelson's Podcast: Do This, Not ThatConnect with Jay: Website | Linked InOther Episodes You'll Love:What to Post on LinkedIn to Grow Your Podcast This Week→ This episode was recorded on the Deity VO-7USupport the showLiked this episode?

Procrastination isn't just stealing your time—it's stealing your profits.

Bill and Bryan tackle a common sales trap that costs deals and relationships: making judgments about prospects before you even sit down with them. Whether you're assuming someone can't afford your services based on company size, or writing off a "boring" CFO who might actually be your biggest champion, these snap judgments can blind you to real opportunities. The guys share real stories of misjudging billion-dollar executives and getting burned by outdated company research, plus practical techniques for approaching every sales conversation with genuine curiosity instead of preconceived notions. Key Takeaway: Your job isn't to be the smartest person in the room - it's to be genuinely curious about where your prospect is trying to go and what problems they're trying to solve.

If you've ever asked yourself, “Where in my episode should I put my call to action?” — this one's for you. Because even if your CTA is perfectly worded, it won't drive action if it's in the wrong spot or the listener payoff isn't clear.And if your audience isn't taking the next step, you're not just missing out on listener engagement—it's a hidden leak in your lead flow, costing you potential clients and revenue you don't even realize you're losing.In this episode, we're breaking down exactly where to place your calls to action, how to track if they're working, and what to do with that data once you have it. Plus, I give you a super simple CTA framework you can swipe and start using in your next episode.So if you're tired of giving CTAs that feel awkward (and you're ready to say yours like a human and finally know if it's doing what you want it to do) hit play and let's dive in.1:00 – The Worst Place to Put Your CTA (and Why It Turns Cold Listeners Off)2:40 – The Only “Rule” for CTA Placement That Actually Matters3:22 – Where Your CTA Actually Belongs (Hint: It's Not Pre-roll, Mid-roll, or Post-roll)6:52 – Why Saying Your CTA Like a Human Gets More Clicks (and Builds Trust)9:08 – The 3 Parts Every Strong CTA Should Include13:03 – How to Test, Track, and Tweak Your CTAs for Better ResultsOther Episodes You'll Love:How Do I Give a Podcast CTA That Doesn't Sound Salesy?→ This episode was recorded on the Deity VO-7USupport the showLiked this episode?

Kevin shares his unique journey from investment banking and now helping sales teams worldwide understand how to communicate financial value to CEOs and CFOs.

Do you have confidence in your team's ability to deliver — or do you continually find yourself covering for them? In this episode of "It's Your Business," we take a closer look at one of the most vital — yet often misunderstood — elements of business development: accountability. Discover how genuine accountability fosters trust, scalability, and a strong performance culture from the insights shared by Jess Dewell, the show host and strategic growth consultant; Dean Barta, financial advisor; and Christy Maxfield, business consultant. They discuss how accountability turns ambitious objectives into concrete, measurable outcomes and clarify what accountability genuinely signifies in today's business environment — encompassing personal responsibility and dedication, as well as nurturing trust and encouraging successful collaboration. You'll receive real-life examples, practical advice, tips for cultivating a culture where everyone comprehends and embraces their responsibilities, and insights into overcoming challenges directly — whether your team operates remotely, in a hybrid model, or face-to-face.   --------------------   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.

For the next several episodes we are going to be jumping into a series on how to REVIVE your life and business through facing the spiritual forces that we come against as believers. Scripture is FULL of references to unclean spirits and we are given insight on how to effectively battle these forces, but in today's modern culture we have all but forgotten the importance of standing strong in the Lord so He can fight these forces on our behalf. If you feel like you are facing opposition, discouragement, doubt, an unnatural amount of struggle, insecurity, or attacks in your business, then there is a spiritual force at play. While we do business in the natural, if we are believers, we are fighting spiritual battles in the heavenlies in all we do. In order to see breakthrough in the natural, we must first learn how to overcome in the Spiritual realms. This series is designed to help you do just that. So please come and join me in this first episode as we discover what are spiritual battles and how we are to face them so we can see greater success in all areas of life and business. For more Spiritual Support in the Growing of Your Business join us in the GROW Collective at The GROW Collective for Christian Women

Wing shares the dramatic impact COVID-19 had on his business, causing a staggering 85% drop in revenue and a significant reduction in employees. Faced with excess food, Wing began delivering meals to local hospitals, which evolved into the California Love Drop initiative, supported by brands like Monster Energy and Cliff Bar. Wing discusses his journey in the restaurant industry, the struggle to maintain consistency, the challenges of scaling, and his philosophy on community collaboration.

You KNOW you should give a call to action in every podcast episode. But every time you sit down to record, your brain short-circuits — should you tell them to follow the show? Join your list? Download the freebie? Book a call? Support your sponsor? Buy your thing? Say too much and you sound desperate. Say too little and you miss your chance to turn listeners into leads.In this episode, I'm breaking down the real reason CTAs feel awkward, the difference between a call to engage and a call to action (yes, they're different), what to say instead of stacking five random asks at the end of your episode, and how to say exactly what listener needs to hear to take the next step. If you've ever felt unsure of what to offer, how to offer it, or afraid of pushing people away when you do — this is the missing link between your content and your conversions.Ready to give a podcast CTA that feels good and actually converts?

Bill and Bryan dive deep into the universal experience of self-doubt in sales and business development. Moving beyond the typical "fake it till you make it" advice, they explore how conditional self-doubt shows up in specific areas—like shooting videos, talking about money, or making cold calls—even when we're confident elsewhere. The guys reveal how even the most successful people struggle with imposter syndrome. But here's the twist: instead of fighting these insecurities, what if you embraced them?

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 this heartfelt solo episode of the 47 at 47 series, John Pajak shares two brutally honest lessons that shaped his business and his mindset. Lesson #4: Cheap clients may look profitable on paper, but they can bleed your business dry in hidden ways. Lesson #5: Your gut can be a great guide  but without data to back it up, you're just guessing with confidence. John opens up about clients who drained his energy, moments when emotion clouded logic, and how learning to pair instinct with insight helped him build a business rooted in both profit and peace. This episode is dedicated to John's daughter Claire even though she's not on the mic, her presence is felt in every word.

What if the most valuable sales asset you have is something you don't even realize you possess? In this week's episode, Bill and Bryan explore the concept of "familiarity blindness" - why we discount our own expertise and fail to see the goldmine of knowledge we're sitting on. Whether you've been in your industry for 3 years or 30, you have insights that could transform your client relationships and differentiate you from the competition. The guys challenge listeners to document the "12 things you know" that others in your field might not - and explain why sharing this knowledge is more powerful than any sales pitch. Special Challenge: Record a video sharing your top insights and tag the ASP team - you never know who's watching or where it might lead.

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.

Bill Caskey kicks off a new 12-week series based on his book "12 Bold Moves" by tackling the first bold move: creating a sales process that genuinely benefits prospects, not just salespeople. He challenges the traditional approach of "shoving people through" a process and shares how reframing discovery as mutual understanding can dramatically improve close rates. Caskey includes a real client example of using pre-call assessments to increase closing rates from 20% to 40% while providing genuine value to prospects.
