Speaker:

Okay, so this is gonna be a really

quick episode number one, because.

2

:

My message is really succinct and I just,

there's something that I need to share

3

:

about private podcasts and your business.

4

:

And then number two, because this is my

third time trying to record it, because,

5

:

you know, sometimes shit happens.

6

:

And so the lesson here is that

sometimes shit happens, and

7

:

especially when it comes to recording.

8

:

I did a whole interview the other day.

9

:

None of it recorded.

10

:

Um.

11

:

Things happen, like these are things

that are pretty expected, especially

12

:

when you're dealing with technology.

13

:

I just, now, when I, the first time I

recorded, tried to record this episode,

14

:

my microphone was on mute, didn't

realize until I was finished totally

15

:

the second time I tried to record it.

16

:

Um, my microphone wasn't plugged

up all the way to the computer.

17

:

Um, so there you go.

18

:

There's that.

19

:

Uh, so anyhow, there's just a little

message of it happens to all of us.

20

:

Just keep going.

21

:

We are in the thick of private

podcast week over and Angie land.

22

:

23

:

There's still time.

24

:

You still can get the private stream

and you still have time to listen.

25

:

You can still participate in this

discussion in the group and the,

26

:

we're having a live demo, um, of

actual Hello Audio Lindsay from Hello.

27

:

Hello.

28

:

Audio is going to come

and demo that for us.

29

:

I'm gonna do some Q&A and

a and some coaching live.

30

:

And then I'm going to show you

some behind-the-scenes inside.

31

:

Look, first inside, look at my

new course about private podcasts.

32

:

So go do that if you have it.

33

:

here's the thing that I want to tell you.

34

:

So I.

35

:

In these discussions and in these

questions and, and we've been talking

36

:

about like what our goals are and what

we wanna accomplish and how we wanna use

37

:

private podcasts, those kinds of things.

38

:

I've been really inspired by

everyone's innovation and creativity.

39

:

It really inspired me to start a podcast.

40

:

I'm like, I should start a podcast

that's literally about marketing and how

41

:

people are using marketing creatively in

their business because I think it's so.

42

:

Interesting.

43

:

And I love to see the different

things that people are doing.

44

:

And so the it, it's been really inspiring

and I had a client once who was a launch

45

:

strategist and she told me that, and what

she told me really stuck with me because

46

:

she told me that how she would approach

this with her clients, she would approach.

47

:

What do we do for the launch?

48

:

That question, like, do we do a workshop?

49

:

Do we do a master class?

50

:

Do we do a webinar?

51

:

Do we do a challenge?

52

:

Like what's that launch event gonna

be, that sales event gonna be?

53

:

And her response, and what she

would always say to people is,

54

:

it's not like, let's not just think

about what that is going to be.

55

:

Like, it's not about what the sales

event is going to be, it's about how

56

:

you want people to experience you.

57

:

And for me, I just, that really

stuck with me because it's such a

58

:

powerful way to reframe thinking

about how we create in our business.

59

:

And I think that that really

drives the innovation versus.

60

:

Coming to someone like me and saying,

okay, what have you seen work?

61

:

What?

62

:

What should I do?

63

:

What am I, You know?

64

:

And I think that there's a

time and a place for that.

65

:

Yeah, there's a time and a place.

66

:

Okay, this is how I wanna use it.

67

:

How can I use your information and

expertise to help me create this?

68

:

But I think when we go back to how

do I want someone to experience

69

:

me, how do I want them to feel?

70

:

What do I want this to

accomplish in my business?

71

:

I think it's such a powerful

way to reframe and think

72

:

about how we want to use this.

73

:

I'll give an example.

74

:

One of my clients, um, she's also

in private podcast week, and one of

75

:

the things that she was saying she

wants to use her private podcast for

76

:

is in conjunction with her events.

77

:

Actually two, actually two people,

and I never thought about using

78

:

it this way before because I

have an event and it was like.

79

:

I could use the private podcast too

because there are some things that

80

:

people need to kinda get their, wrap

their minds around before they get

81

:

to the event that's gonna help them

to have more success at the event.

82

:

And she was like, I wanna use

a private podcast for that.

83

:

And I was like, that

is a really cool idea.

84

:

And it's tied to their total

experience of your event, right?

85

:

And I was like, Ooh, that's so cool.

86

:

Plus, after the event, you could have a

private podcast stream, or you could have,

87

:

you could add something to that same.

88

:

Podcast stream after the event.

89

:

So like there's a lead up, there's the

event, and then there's some things that

90

:

they could do after the event or you can

stay in touch or maybe there's like call

91

:

to actions that get them to take the next

step, whatever that is in your experience.

92

:

Right.

93

:

So I thought that was a really

cool idea and something I'm

94

:

gonna still and be incorporating.

95

:

So.

96

:

You could do the same, but I want you

to think about how you want people

97

:

to experience you, and I want you to

keep in mind that audio can be such an

98

:

intimate experience where you get to.

99

:

Form relationships and build

intimacy with your audience.

100

:

Not just nurture them for the sale, but

like how can you truly connect with them?

101

:

And I think when you think

about it in that way, logically,

102

:

what can come next for them?

103

:

How are they experiencing me?

104

:

Are they coming into my Facebook group

and then, you know, I'm giving them

105

:

a private podcast to get to know me.

106

:

Okay, cool.

107

:

Are they coming into, are

they coming to my event?

108

:

And what would, what would enhance that

experience of them experiencing my brand?

109

:

Do they buy my program?

110

:

And then, you know, I, I don't know.

111

:

There's so many different things and

so many ways you could think about it.

112

:

So I wanna encourage your innovation.

113

:

I wanna encourage you to think about

your private podcast as an experience

114

:

and what you want people to experience,

how you wanna build intimacy and

115

:

connection with your audience.

116

:

I think that's a really powerful way.

117

:

And so that's really

what I wanted to share.
