SPI 861: How to Make People See You as the Authority (Even If You’re Not Famous Yet)

#549 On today’s show we’re speaking with somebody who is right in the middle of building his business. We’re talking with Eric Wooten, from AltaredMarriage.com. He’s fairly new to the entrepreneurial space, and he’s a member of SPI Pro. We talk about some really interesting topics, including managing a business where you have to get people comfortable with being vulnerable. We also talk about what it’s like to be right in the middle of starting a business and not knowing what your next steps might be.

#548 I get a lot of emails from people asking to be a guest on one of my podcasts. And a lot of those emails... well, they're not great. That's why today I'm going to share some of the ways to most definitely not ask to be on someone's podcast. I want to preface this episode by saying that I don't mean to offend or make fun of anyone. I'm here to educate. And if you've sent me an email like this, I hope you'll take this as a chance to learn and improve. But the truth is, you're never going to be on another person's podcast if you approach the ask the way these people did. Here's where they went wrong—and what you should do instead.

#547 Seth Godin once said, podcasting is the new blogging. If that’s true, guest podcasting is the new guest blogging. Today, we’re going to talk about how to be a guest on another person’s podcast. How do you get that person to say yes? How do you maximize your time on that show? How do you bring those listeners to your website, your brand, your product, your lead magnet, or whatever it might be?

#546 I'm gonna be honest. What you're about to hear in today's episode might be a little disturbing. Okay, I'm kidding (mostly). You might cringe a little, though. That's because you're going to hear clips from my very first podcast episode ever, from July 2010. Podcasting was very difficult then. It was not just technically difficult, but hard because there were fewer people making shows and proving that this thing actually worked. It was also hard because I was very much in my own head, and the thought of putting my voice out into the world was scary. But I also knew a little bit about the power and potential of podcasting. And I knew I wanted to help people change their lives through podcasting as well. That's why I also want to share a special offer on our Power-Up Podcasting course. It's the best resource out there to get you up and running with the podcast of your dreams.

#545 A lot of people are looking to start podcasts this year. I've been podcasting for a very long time, and we've done episodes with other podcasters talking about podcasting and what that can do for your brand. It can do a lot. Today we're speaking with Abby Rose Green. She co-hosts two relatively new podcasts, and they're both doing extremely well. This is a component that I don't have a ton of experience with: co-hosts. How do you coordinate? How do you work with another person who is also a voice on your show? Today, we're going to talk about all that and more.

#544 Have you ever had an ambitious goal—one that when you're finally faced with the opportunity to fulfill it, you're met with resistance and ultimately try to self-sabotage? It's that voice in your head that tells you you're just not good enough. Today's guest host, Brad Hussey, knows that voice—and he also knows that what we creators and entrepreneurs must always try to do is feel that fear, that anxiety—and do it anyway. The "it" in today's case is email marketing—and not just any ordinary email marketing. Brad will be sharing his approach to creating a remarkable, hyper-personalized marketing machine that delights, resonates, and turns traffic into customers and fans for life.

#542 Today is our second installment in the new "Teaching Friday" series where we tap into the amazing knowledge of folks in the SPI audience and our SPI Pro community, and I'm excited to welcome another SPI Pro member, Trudy Rankin of Online Business Lift-Off. Today, Trudy will be sharing some of her deep knowledge about creating life-changing workshops and masterclasses, with a twist. What's the twist? It's an interactive diagnostic tool that you pair with your workshop that complements and creates synergies with what you're teaching. This twist will help your workshop or teaching event have even more of an impact with your students and clients. These Teaching Fridays are new, and they're not necessarily permanent. They might be, but we're experimenting! We'd love to know what you think of them, so hit me up @patflynn on Instagram or Twitter.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
