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.

26

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.
