My Plan to Start Running Paid Ads
I’ve always been too scared to advertise. There are a few reasons for this. I don’t fully trust Facebook or other digital ad networks. (Does anyone?) They have pulled the rug out from under me so many times that I feel foolish giving them money. I don’t know what I’m doing, and therefore don’t want to burn cash. What’s funny is that my team has processed millions of dollars of ad budget for our clients and have had great success. But when it comes to my own money, I’ve always been too chicken. Here’s why it’s different for me now. For Copyblogger and for TimStodz, it’s obvious to me that the best way for me to serve my audience is by writing high level newsletters. I never imagined I would be in the newsletter business, but I’m surprisingly good at it and best of all, I LOVE doing it. Copyblogger makes about $8000 a week if I sell out of sponsorships for all three issues. TimStodz makes about $400 a week since it’s only 1 issue a week and the email list is just over 8000 people. The point is, if I am able to earn email subscribers for $5 a pop or less, than I can continue building up the revenue and growing the list into a monster. For Copyblogger, I want to get 1,000,000 subscribers. For TimStodz, my short term goal is 100,000. It’s a good plan … I think? Follow along at https://www.timstodz.com/
3 Reasons Why You Should Start a Podcast
You should start a podcast. Here are 3 reasons why. 1. There is plenty of room in the podcasting space. There's a false narrative that podcasts are over crowded. It's true that there are a lot of podcasts out there, but it's also true that only a small fraction of podcasts survive long enough to make it past 100 episodes. Most podcasts haven't published a new episode in weeks. Hardly any podcast publishers publish their content consistently over time. 2. Podcasts are easy to create. All you have to do is go to anchor.fm and you can create a free account. After that, it will take you a few minutes to get you podcasts hooked up to apple podcasts and Spotify, but the technical trouble is nothing compared to building a website. In addition, if you have ear buds, you can record and publish a podcast with decent sound quality. There are lots of podcasts with millions of views where the hosts record directly from their cell phone. 3. Podcasts are great networking tools. When I first started my podcast, it was a great opportunity to meet people and get networked with other professionals. Till this day, it's one of the most valuable resources I have at my disposal and a lot of my closest business relationships started with my podcast.

Brian Casel: How to Systematize Your Service Business - EP 114
Service businesses have a problem. They can only scale their business in proportion to the amount of time they can buy. If they sign new clients, that means they need to be able to serve those clients which means they need to hire more employees.
If you are doing service work, there is only so much you can increase your prices before you hit a ceiling. So how do we scale a service business such as an agency?
How do we free up our time while simultaneously increasing our profits?
This is where Brian Casel comes in.
Brian is the founder of Audience Opps, which is a productized content agency that has found a great way to deliver high quality content to clients while scaling the business.
Brian has taken the lessons he has learned from Audience Opps and created software products and education products that help other agency owner develop these processes into their own work flow so they can automate their businesses and make more money.

Polina Marinova Pompliano: Going all In on "The Profile." - EP 109
Polina (@polina_marinova) is a writer, an entrepreneur, and creator of The Profile.
The Profile is a media that company allows you to "Learn from the most successful people and companies every Sunday morning."
Polina and I first met each other during a invite only mastermind session that was put together by "The Hustle." Once I discovered Polina's work, I instantly became hooked and I subscribed to her newsletter.
Polina combines a journalistic writing style with her own unique perspective and uses her insight to create Profiles on some of the worlds most successful and inspirational figures. In addition, she writes a members only Dossier, in which she does a deep dive on one specific figure and brings us the deep level thinking, habits and behaviors that successful individuals display in their lives.
This was my favorite conversation I've had yet on the podcast. I walked away from this interview inspired and ready to take action on my own work.
