Do you deserve to be known?

Do you believe you should be allowed to be seen?

  • That is, do you think you have a worthy opinion on a subject(s) that others would actually want to hear what you have to say.

Do you feel like you’re not entertaining enough to be heard?

  • Truth is, you really don’t have to be that entertaining or know that much more than others, just a little bit more.
  • The best way to get people to rally to your cause is to put yourself out there and do it consistently.

What is the one irreplaceable ingredient to grow a business?

  • The offer
  • While this may seem like common sense, Brian explains why it’s more of a problem than one might think.
  • are you making it clear enough, often enough, specific enough?
  • are you just promoting a brand name and not making a real offer at all?
  • In marketing circles it’s called a call-to-action or CTA for short
  • you’ve got to tell somebody (the audience) what you want them to do, that’s the offer or call-to-action.

Dan Kennedy’s definition of Marketing from his book, The Ultimate Marketing Plan

“Getting the right message to the right people via the right media and methods effectively, efficiently and profitably”

3 Steps

Market – The who – who you are trying to reach.

Message – Usually what you are trying to get them to do, or get across to them.

Media – The method by which you are reaching your audience.

  • Most people pay attention to the message or the media first, when they should be paying attention to the market first.
  • It’s all about the who
  • Then you create a message that speaks to them in their language.
  • That will help you define which media to go after and which media you might want to stay away from.

Fidget Spinners & Tactical Distractions In Business

  • A talk about fidget spinners and how they relate back to distraction in your business.
  • Brian talks about how not all companies made money that decided to jump on the fidget spinner bandwagon back in 2017.
  • Some people did make millions of dollars on fidget spinners, but most didn’t make any money at all.
  • As it relates back to business, people can also get caught up in tactical distracts and place too much time and attention to them.

How Do You Handle This / Playing The Long-Game

  • You’ve got to focus first on the long-term strategy of what you are trying to accomplish in your business.
  • what do you want your company to end up looking like, what will it end up being?
  • Anytime you looking for something you want to achieve you’ve got to step back and look at the big picture of where you want to go.
  • Then you narrow things down to a long-term strategy, a long-term plan to help you get to your destination.
  • After that, you look at the tactics you believe are necessary to help you along the way.
  • And tactics can always be changing.
  • Today it could be podcasting, tomorrow it could be something that doesn’t even exist yet.

Brian’s Benefits From Podcasting

  • A way to get to know other people
  • Could be peers in your industry, or possibly a group of people you want to get to know better.
  • Also helps promote those that are taking time to talk with you.

Is Podcasting Right for you?

  • You’ve got to find out why you would do it.
  • This is important, in-part because it’s not the easiest thing in the world to do.
  • You’ll likely have a learning curve to get them recorded, edited and published.
  • Are you looking to promote yourself or your business?
  • Possibly to promote a specific aspect of what your business has to offer?
  • Will you be making offers on the podcast?
  • Is it going to be entertaining? Why should people listen?
  • Don’t start until you know your reason why.

Benefits To Podcasting

  • While you may not have a lot of followers to start…
  • As the podcast picks up in popularity, people will go back and “binge listen” to old podcasts.
    • Kind of like how people watch TV shows on Netflix, Hulu and HBO for example.
  • To host the show it’s relatively cheap to do.
