| 04 Sep 2015 | 3 Things You Must Know About Online Networking | 00:17:10 | |
Word of warning - we're talking about building real relationships and community, not jumping in and asking for the sale. I'm giving real talk about why it's critical to treat those avatars the same way you would a face to face conversation. Second word of warning - don't underestimate the value of coupling this with in person networking. Both can be better when you bring a little strategic face to face time into the mix.

As more and more people join the social media game it gets more and more crowded. Which is great, we're able to connect with more people than we have ever had access to before.

| 19 Aug 2015 | My eWomenNetwork Conference Takeaways | 00:19:55 | |
eWomenNetwork is one of the organizations that has been on my radar for a while, in fact it was probably the second large membership base I learned about (after International Virtual Assistants Association) when I started my first business. I avoided it for quite awhile not sure I'd fit in, I honestly thought it was geared a bit older than I am. Earlier this year though a friend talked me into attending a meeting and I loved it. It's been a wonderful group of women. When eWomenNetwork founder Sandra Yancey joined us at our chapter lunch several months ago she shared about conference and I knew I had to go, and go I did. Now I've been back for about a week and I'd love to share my BIG takeaways with YOU.

This isn't the episode I expected to put out this week, and next week you'll hear what was planned, but today I want us to have a different conversation. I'm choosing NOT to mute my content and my profiles this week. Instead, I'm sharing the people I'm listening to and learning from and the resources they are creating. I'm speaking to the ACTIONS I'm taking because Instagram posts are great, but they're not a solution to the crisis at hand. I'm also speaking to why you will see the changes I speak about today not just this week but moving forward because this isn't an Instagram trend, this isn't a moment, it's a change I am committed to working more on PUBLICLY and doubling down on my personal efforts and conversations as well.

Affiliate programs seem to be everywhere and after years of saying no I decided for me it was time to learn more. In the interest of sharing today's episode is a little different.

| 23 Aug 2016 | Facebook Groups vs Slack Channels | 00:12:37 | |
We are talking about a very common question I get about Facebook groups versus Slack channels. Specifically, we're going to talk about them in the scope of a community for a membership, or a free community that you're having as part of your opt in, or as a bonus add-on for maybe a group program you're doing.
Facebook group versus Slack channels. First, let's talk about what each of these things are because you might not know what Slack channels are. First, Facebook groups. These are the groups that you can set at 3 privacy levels: closed, open or secret. Closed means that the group is searchable, you can see who is a member but you have to be a member to be able to post or see any of the content inside the group. Public means everything is searchable. We can see everything that is going on in the group without being a member. Secret means the group is not searchable. The member list is not available publicly and all of the content in the group is members eyes only. Those are your 3 options when it comes to Facebook groups. Facebook groups are 100% free. You do need a profile to run it. You can't create, use or access groups as a page you can only do it using your profile. They are a really really popular option for a lot of things keeping in touch with friends, mastermind groups, free groups to help build your email list, as a program add on, as a membership community piece. Most people kind of understand them. Nobody has to go to any additional place to get access to the forum. It is a really good option for a lot of people. Number 2 is Slack channels. Slack is a relatively new communication tool, in comparison to Facebook group anyways. You can create it, it's totally private to the people who have access. When you create a group you get a special URL. You can access it through an app on your phone, you can access it through desktop. I have a Slack app on my iMac even so that I don't have to go through the desktop, I can keep it open almost like a group chat or a messenger. It is a separate thing. I don't have to worry about having a tab open for it on the desktop, which is also really nice if you're somebody who has multiple Slack channels by the way. It is a really great tool for keep your team in communication, for groups, for meet ups. Basically, just anything to share what is happening with everybody. I really like both tools. I don't think that one tool is necessarily better than other just overall. I do think though that these tools have different uses. They have different places and again it's going to come back to that question, and you hear me say this all the time. It's going to depend on who your clients are. Let's kind of break down the either or's on this on a case by case basis, and then I will kind of talk about why one or the other is better for each of these options. First, let's talk about for a free group as part of your email opt. Maybe you're running a free challenge or as a w Tired of your podcast feeling like just another thing on your to-do list?

| 22 Nov 2016 | Why Sales Funnels Are Good for Your Community | 00:12:09 | |
Welcome to episode 318 of Hit the Mic with The Stacey Harris. All right, guys. We're going to talk about sales funnels today, because I have been getting some push back on the idea of sales funnels. I was actually in a Facebook group, and I was talking about sales funnels, and stating that one of my goals was improving my sales funnels for Hit the Mic Backstage. I got some negative feedback about how sales funnels were, like, manipulative, and it was really, really interesting to me. I wanted to talk about this, because sales funnels are actually an amazing thing for you to do for your community, because they serve two purposes. One for your business growth, and one for your community. I want to break down those two things, and I want to just quick and dirty get rid of this illusion that sales funnels are bad. Sales funnels are your friend. All right? First, let's talk about how sales funnels serve your community. Here's the deal. No one, no one at all, knows your business, knows your offerings, know how you provide value as well as you do. No one but you knows all the Tweets that go out and the Facebook messages and the e-mails and the content you've done. No. It's just, no one knows it the way you do, because you're inside of it. From the outside looking in, I still get people who ask me about a launch that I've been doing like crazy a month after the cart closes. I still get people who are like, "You have a membership community?" Yeah, I've had one for like 14 months, and I talk about it all the time. No one is paying as close attention to your business as you are, and that is true just universally, so you have to accept it. In having sales funnels, it allows you to guide the people who need you through a process. It allows you to say, "Hey, yeah, here is a small solution to your problem. Here you go. Oh, you need a little more help? Here. How about this?" "Hey, you want to go all in on getting help on this? Here you go." That's really all a sales funnel is. It's just a path from lead to customer. That's it. It's not some sort of, like, magic trick. It's not some sort of massive manipulation. It's just guiding them down a path. It's no different than sending up a follow up e-mail after you've been to a networking event. It's just part of having the relationship grow. It's just part of having your value become clear to them. I want you to just release the idea that this is some sort of trickery, some sort of sorcery to get people to do what you want them to do. Really, ultimately, your sales funnel is not about you. It's about your client. It's about, "How can I provide value in this focused way to get them from A to B so that they go from problem to problem solved?" It's that simple. Not everyone goes all the way through the funnel, because not everyone needs to go all the way through the funnel. There are absolutely people who click on one of my ads that is at the top of, let's say, the Facebook Ads funnel that leads into Backstage, and they listen to a podcast where I talked about Facebook Ads, and they get what they needed Tired of your podcast feeling like just another thing on your to-do list?

| 30 Aug 2016 | The One Reason Social Media Is a Waste of Time | 00:14:46 | |
Welcome to Episode 294 of Hit The Mic with The Stacey Harris. Hello, hello, and today we're going to talk about social media. I know, I know, it's crazy, but I want to talk about something really, really important. It's actually something I kind of touched on in Episode 293 when we talked about Instagram stories, but I feel like it's not getting enough conversation right now. So guess what? We're going to have the conversation. This really is the one thing that makes your social media efforts, your time on Facebook, your groups, your SnapChats, your stories on Instagram, your tweets. All of it, totally useless. A complete and utter waste of time, and yes, it is in fact possible for your social media to be a EPIC waste of your time. When it happens, and it happens a lot, it's because of this thing. It's because of this one thing. Are you ready?
You don't know why. And what I mean by that is not some sort of grandiose why in your business or some major movement you're making in the world. Those things are critical too I think from a larger business planning perspective, and it definitely trickles down into your marketing and into your social media. If you don't know those things it gets harder to make any steps I think in your business. But what I mean by this is really, really specific. Really, really tactical. Really, really brass tacks here. You don't know why you're posting it. It comes from posting for the sake of posting. Feeding the machine. I think we get so caught up in this urge to be doing something that makes us seem busy. To be doing something that someone told us we had to do to be successful. To be doing something period, maybe, because so, so often we get caught up in keeping the wheels on in our business. Keeping the wheels on in our marketing. Keeping the wheels on in our social media. That we forget that there's a reason for each and every post. These posts have lots of reasons and we're going to go through some examples of what I mean by this and how to get there. Posting has lots of reasons, but if you don't know why you're posting each and every post, each and every tweet, each and every story, each and every video, each and every update that you're posting? Then don't post it. It's just noise and there's enough of that. That noise is probably going to do a lot more damage than it's going to do good for your business. So let's talk about knowing some of these why's. Let's do some examples here. What I mean by "whys" are things like community growth, sales, driving traffic to a website, community engagement, driving traffic to some sort of third party thing, like maybe an interview or an affiliate or something like that. The most important ones are really about value. I think those come from content, driving traffic to content, driving content to information, value adds, actually engaging in value and information right there on the platform.

In fact, I’ve been recommending clients record them for their podcast for almost two years now. In this episode, I want to give examples of audio sales pages I’ve created in hopes of normalizing this process so that you (if you’re skittish about it) can stop feeling that anxiety, too. 1:07 - The valuable real estate you have available to you as a podcaster with an offer 5:46 - What the structure of an audio sales page looks like (and the difference between it and a written sales page) 8:17 - Why you shouldn’t worry about sounding too salesy, douchy, or uninteresting in your audio sales page 12:02 - The common narrative I hear from clients about creating this asset 14:23 - Why it’s fine to keep recording audio sales pages even if your offer never really changes

| 10 Oct 2017 | One Thing You Can Do Today to Improve Your Marketing | 00:14:19 | |
Welcome to episode 370 of Hit the Mic with The Stacey Harris. So recently I was asked to give a 15 minute talk at an event. I was like, "Okay, so 15 minutes, what do you want me to talk about?" They were like, "Oh, well like digital marketing." I was like, "Okay, more specifically." And they were like, "Search engine optimization." I was like, "Okay, more specifically." They were like, "Social media." I was like, "Still gonna need us to narrow that down for 15 minutes." So what we came up with was the one thing you can do right now, to improve your digital marketing, also known as your online marketing, but really this applies to anything marketing. Your marketing in general, your social media, your content, whatever. This one thing will make all of them better, so that's what were going to talk about today. Before we jump into that though, I want to remind you that this show is brought to you by its big brother, its natural upgrade, it's next step, and that's Hit the Mic Backstage. Hit the Mic Backstage is a one stop shop for all things social media marketing, trainings. We also have some email marketing trainings, and video, and we have an entire podcasting course. So it really is the place to be. If you love this show, and you want more of it, come join us at Hit the Mic Backstage. We've got two brand-new trainings that come up every month. They're either updates to previous trainings, meaning that all of the trainings in there are actually reflective of what's happening in social media now, and not two years ago when this community launched, or earlier than that. So join us, hitthemicbackstage.com, we do have a couple spots left for the VIP level, as of the recording of this. That may not be true when it airs. If it isn't true, you can get on the wait list for the VIP option, and join us in the regular community in the meantime, which does give you access to me in the two private communities we have. One right on the website, and one over on Facebook. So there's lots of ways for you to connect with me, and the rest of the Backstage peeps. Also, hitthemicbackstage.com is the place to go. So I will see you there. Let's jump in, and let's talk about this one thing, one thing you can do to improve your digital marketing right now. Are you ready for it? This could be the shortest episode ever. Are you ready? Now? Take stock of what you already have.Seriously, the biggest digital marketing mistake I see people making, social media wise, content wise is, "If I just do XYZ, that'll solve all the problems." So they keep building on this total lack of a foundation. They say, "Oh, I saw at a conference that Instagram Stories, that's what I have to do. So I'm gonna do that. Oh, I saw that Facebook Live is where it's at, I'm gonna do that. Oh, I saw that podcasts are the only way to go. I'm gonna do that.

| 15 Feb 2022 | How Podcasters Can Use Behind The Scenes Content to Build Trust and Drive Sales | 00:16:47 | |
Let's dig into some behind-the-scenes content suggestions for you because this is I think the most tossed-out idea when people start talking about content ideas. They're like, "Oh, we'll take a behind-the-scenes." Sometimes that is met with a complete shutoff because the service provided or the consumable being offered is very visual, and taking the behind-the-scenes of manufacturing, that's really hard to do on a podcast. Today, I want to talk specifically about some ways you can do this regardless of how visual your offering is, regardless of how in the weeds or techy your solution might feel. We're going to talk about three ways you can do this. I really encourage you to look at your Q2 content calendar and pick at least one of these. This could be something you do all the time and it'd be incredibly helpful. Tired of your podcast feeling like just another thing on your to-do list? We can fix it. | |||

I really want to get through the wash and repeatedness of this because I think oftentimes we're looking for the next thing. "Okay. We tried A now B and now C and now D and all the way to Z or Zed." Which sounds way cooler, but that's a show for another day. But we forget about the other side of this, which is the importance of repeating those actions.

| 21 Nov 2017 | 3 Elements of Building Your Community | 00:15:01 | |
Welcome to episode 376 of Hit the Mic with The Stacey Harris. All right guys, episode 376 is officially started. We're going to talk about communities today, and I want to talk a little bit about what I mean by that because sometimes there is a confusion about what community can mean and if a community is even possible in regards to a businesses' audience. And here is the real deal, not only is it possible, it's critical. Think about your favorite brands. Some people call massive supporters of Apple, for example, fanboys and fangirls or certain movie franchises or whatever the thing may be, Android devices, whatever the thing is. Those are all businesses, and they all have a rabid fan base. That fan base is the community. So you can have the same thing. In fact, it's critical that you have the same thing. I would even go as far as saying it's more valuable for you to have something like that as a small business owner, solopreneur, or micro business owner, whatever category you fall into because your audience is not as necessarily massive from a number perspective. You want them to be really invested in buying you. In buying from you and supporting your brand. So that's what we're going to talk about today. We're going to talk about the three aspects of community building that you need to be paying attention to. And this kind of thing is relevant whether you have one person in your community, whether it's a Facebook like or a name on your email list or a customer, or whatever, or a million. So, let's jump in with that today. Before we get started, I want to remind you, like every other episode of this show, it's sponsored by hitthemicbackstage.com. If you want a great example what a community can do, join us in there. We've got massive amounts of trainings and accountability with the community aspects. We've got two private forums you can join in on. So we really meet you wherever you're at. And then we also have what I think is a massively valuable piece, our monthly Member Mastermind. So that's once a month, we get on live call. We've got some hot seat time. You submit questions to me. If you want to jump on live and get some coaching, you can do that. Whatever works for you to get the support you need to actually use this stuff. I'm not looking for you to join a library of trainings and just let it get virtually dusty. I want you to jump in and I want you to take action. So, that's why the Monthly Mastermind is in place. If you really, really, really want to uplevel and stay accountable and get stuff done, join us at the BAM, it's the Backstage Amplifier Mastermind. That gets you a monthly one on one call with me as well. So the place to be, hitthemicbackstage.com. I will see you there, all right.

Full show notes and transcript at https://thestaceyharris.com/episode440 I'm stoked for today's conversation because this is one of those things that comes up again and again. It's one of the things I've been doing a lot this year is actually putting together trainings and workshops. Every time we do a Q&A this comes up and so I feel like that is a sign from the podcasting gods that I need to talk about this and that we need to sit down and have a conversation because strategy and building a plan is not restrictive. It's not about creating things you can't do. It's in fact the most spacious thing you can do in your business and for your creativity.

| 23 Oct 2015 | 3 Things You Must Know About Facebook Insights | 00:16:27 | |
It's possible to make Facebook actually work, but you need to know if it's not working first. I get emails from listeners every week telling me that Facebook sucks. They just aren't seeing the results they want to see. My first question is always, well what are you numbers are. Are the right people liking your page? What percentage of folks are seeing what types of posts? What have been your least popular and most popular posts in the last 30 days. The simple truth is, if you don't know these answers you will never see the results you want to see with Facebook. You MUST know what's happening first, then you can figure out how to make it better. Today I'm sharing 3 critical stats you'll find right in your Facebook Insights that can move your time on Facebook forward.

| 26 Jun 2023 | Introducing the Profitable Podcaster Mastermind | 00:23:50 | |
It is possible to enjoy your podcast, but you have to build a few systems into your process first. In fact, if more podcasters did this earlier in their show, there would be a lot fewer podcasts that seem just to fizzle out and disappear. Yeah, I’m talking about all those podcasts currently collecting dust in the far corners of the internet because the host got burned out, overwhelmed, and decided podcasting was a waste of time. Maybe you’ve seen this happen to one of your favorites (I know I have). Don’t be that dusty podcast (host). Let’s do it differently. We’ve developed three systems that I believe DEEPLY every podcaster needs.

| 17 Jul 2015 | Website Trends with Play Nice Together | 00:26:59 | |
Our website represent us, like a virtual store front. You don't want to be dating yourself with an old site (or using out of date marketing tactics). The guys from Play Nice Together (Rick and Ryan) are helping us out by telling us what we need to worry about RIGHT NOW! A little about Play Nice Together...
Ryan’s been a geek since before being a geek was cool (does that make sense?). From an early age, he enjoyed taking things apart, figuring out how they work, then putting them back together. When his parents bought their first family computer, he was instantly drawn to programming. In the years since, Ryan has worked in many different areas of IT, including building computers, supporting large server farms, writing custom software, and developing web sites. After working at a large agency in Manhattan, Ryan decided the corporate world was not right for him. In the spring of 2012, Ryan turned his hobby of building web sites into a business. At first these were mostly tech-focused projects, but he soon had clients asking for design and marketing help too. In 2009, Rick decided to create a wildlife-themed clothing brand called OMUNKY. With almost zero small business experience, he figured it would be a great learning experience, and potentially lead to some great jobs down the road. At first, it was just an expensive hobby, but gradually grew into a fun outlet for his quirky personality. You can meet OMUNKY (and a lot of the times, Rick) at various street fairs and festivals throughout the greater NYC area during the warmer months, or you can visit the online store at www.omunky.com On a warm, sunny day in Westchester, Ryan met Rick at the Dobbs Ferry Festa, a local food and music festival, and the two almost immediately began working together. At first on making the OMUNKY site look more awesome, and then on other client’s websites and brands. It’s been almost three years now, and Rick and Ryan have learned to put up with each other’s strengths and weaknesses (mostly strengths, because we are awesome).

Now that you've reviewed 2014, it's time to get knee deep in planning 2015. There are a few things I suggest figuring out FIRST, for example look at what your priorities are for 2015, not just in business but in your life. I won't say balance (because I don't believe a 50/50 split always works all of the time, but you do have to have a split that works for you. For me that split isn't always the same. There are times I'm 70/30 with a focus on family, and there are times where that spit favors work. That's what works for me. I do have certain priorities when I look at my business though, do I enjoy what I'm doing, is it making the money I need to make to support my family (especially important now that Charles is going to be full time starting in January), and is my community engagement on track with the growth I'm seeing in the community. Those priorities are key as I plan the next year. I'm diving in on this and a lot more in this episode. Even sharing exactly how I plan out my year (down to my editorial calendar).

It's time for us to get real with each other, I'm noticing in more and more conversations when I start to talk strategy I get the response of "oh I have a Facebook page", feel free to insert whatever network you want there but the reality is having a profile or a page is not a plan! The statement is usually followed by a lot of questions about why they can't get clients or opt-ins from their social media efforts. And now it's time for the tough truth, and that is that you don't have a plan, you don't have a strategy, you have tools but no instructions. In today's episode I'm sharing exactly why a strategy is KEY, what you can get from it (what it must include) and of course how it all fits into a larger marketing plan. In fact I'm using my own launch of Social Pro as an example.

| 30 Mar 2021 | Podcast Editor vs Podcast Agency. Which is better? | 00:21:07 | |
I want to fill you in on a secret in podcasting… Sometimes support isn’t the answer. Shocking, I know. But the truth is, not everything can be outsourced (telling you what can’t be in this week’s podcast episode). BUT WHEN IT CAN be outsourced - you have to make some educated hiring decisions. What will make your hiring decisions educated you ask? This is pretty simple. Prior to hiring, you need to know if your need for support is around problems with your Purpose, Process, or Production. Sound simple? It is. With a few caveats that I’m getting into in this new episode. Take it from me, the difference between a podcast editor and an agency is huge, ESPECIALLY if you know what you are looking for.

| 27 Dec 2016 | Make it Easy for Customers to Say Yes | 00:11:41 | |
Welcome to episode 328 of Hit the Mic with thee Stacey Harris. All right guys, as we have just a couple of days left in December, I wanted to sort of stay on this track that we've had going about reviewing things, and making sure we're on track for our goals. I'm talking about this around the New Year's because honestly this is when most people are most likely to take action on this content. This is something you can do anytime. If you happen to find this episode in June, do this then. This is not a, "Okay, well when December happens then I'll do this," or, "I'll pay attention to this next year." This is something that you need to be looking at and thinking about regularly. That's really around this idea of not making it hard for people to pay you. Not making it hard for customers to say, "Yes," for clients to book time. There's a couple of things that I want you to look at. We're going to touch on the most obvious one first. That's your website, and your sales pages.By this I mean does your website have sales pages? I know that sounds like a kind of ridiculous question, but I encourage you to really look at your website. Is there actually a place where people can go on and book something, purchase something? Take an action that gets them toward giving you money, or even better, just straight up give you money. Pay attention, that's actually there. It's easy to think it's there, and it not be there. A great example from my own experience, where I messed this up big time for a year, maybe year and a half, was I have a speakers page on my website because I speak. However, there was not a contact form on it. Now, there's another contact page on my website, but I wasn't making it easy for people to enter their information and say, "Hey, we'd like you to come speak at such and such event." I made it really difficult for potential customers to say, "Yes," for someone to pay me. Go back and make sure that's there. I remember early in my business I had my consult page, and I did the same thing. There was no payment button on there, there was no way to actually hit the button. They had to email me, or send a contact and say they wanted to book me. Then I had to send them an invoice. I made clients go through this unnecessary steps to actually work with me. Look at your sales pages, make sure there's payment buttons, make sure those payment buttons work, make sure those payment buttons don't end up on links that are broken. This is something I actually experienced on somebody else's website recently. I went to go buy something, and I couldn't because the payment buttons were broke. This was an evergreen product, it wasn't something they were launching. It was just somebody had recommended it to me, they had gone through the course when this person ran it live and they were like, "It's fantastic, you should check it out." I went to go check it out, and the payment buttons went to a link, but it was just a payment process homepage, website, homepage for me to sign in.

| 11 Jul 2017 | Does Twitter Still Matter | 00:11:46 | |
Welcome to episode 357 of Hit the Mic with The Stacey Harris. I had a really interesting question sent to me through the website not too long ago, and I decided in addition to emailing this person an answer, I would bring it here, because I think several of you probably have this question. So we're going to talk about, does Twitter still matter? I have gotten a lot of pushback from people lately saying that Twitter is becoming sort of irrelevant and they're not getting traffic or they're not growing their followers, or they feel like it's a waster of time because they're just starting out there, and they don't know how to grow in any way. And so I wanted to talk about why Twitter can still totally be relevant for you, and why it might not be. Twitter does matterSo number one, yes, Twitter overall is still currently, as of today, relevant. Like every social network, I'm sure it will come a point where it is not relevant, although I think social channels have done a better job in the last several years of finding ways to evolve. Facebook and Instagram are killer examples of this. LinkedIn, to a greater extent, is a real shining example of knowing their niche and knowing how to improve to speak to their niche. But who has evolved in a way it needed to, to keep up, so to speak? But I will say that I think everything sort of has its season, so I suspect at some point Facebook and Twitter and LinkedIn and the things of now will go away. They will be not necessarily replaced, but something will evolve to pull our attention. But for now, yes, 100% relevant. With that said, there is not really a network that everyone has to use. It may come down to Twitter just not being some place where your community spends time. And that's okay. It may come down to Twitter being some place where your community spends a lot of time, and in which case, yes it's super relevant. So it always, always, always, when these questions come up of whether a network is for you, whether it's Twitter or LinkedIn or some network yet to be named, it comes down to: Is it relevant for your audience? Does it speak to how they consume content and where they spend their time? If it doesn't, then no, it's not super relevant for you. Twitter automationNow, switching gears back to Twitter, the people who I have talked to through consults and things like that or who have come to engage our services, generally speaking, they're struggling with Twitter because they're doing something fundamentally wrong. And that's their over-automating. Now Twitter is a great and powerful place to add automation. With that said, you can't just autopilot it and expect it to drive thousands and thousands of pieces of traffic for you each and every day. It's just not the way it works. It's all about balance. I know some people who are really successful without doing any sort of automation on Twitter because it's their natural state and they enjoy that space, and they spend time there, and it works for them. I know people who automate 90% of what goes out on Twitter and the Tired of your podcast feeling like just another thing on your to-do list? We can fix it. | |||
| 18 Nov 2016 | 3 Things You Must Know When Choosing Your Podcast Topic | 00:12:33 | |
Welcome to episode 317 of Hit The Mic with The Stacey Harris. Let's talk podcasting. I get a lot of questions about podcasting, especially now that we're 300, now 317 episodes into the show which apparently means I know stuff. One of the most common hurdles for podcasters, or wannabe podcasters rather, is what to talk about. That's what we're going to cover today. We're going to talk about the 3 things you must know about choosing a podcast topic because A, it is not as difficult as you think it is and B, I want you to stop using this as an excuse to no hit record on a podcast because that's what some of you guys are doing. I know things. Let's talk about choosing a podcast topic and let's jump right in. I want to keep this episode pretty brief because I want you guys to be taking action on it, so we're going to jump right in today. Number 1, what problem do you want to solve for your audience? What problem do they have that they are looking to you for? That could be inspiration, that could be understanding, that could be education, that could be training, that could be permission to take things less seriously. It could be a lot of things and I'm talking in sort of a grand scale. In the abstract at a really, really bird's eye level, what problem are you trying to solve? This might be the problem your trying to solve in your business in a lot of other ways, but now this podcast is how you manifest. For example, I have a podcast because a problem I want to solve is I want you guys to stop telling me you're dumb. I get a lot of I'm dumb when it comes to Twitter. I don't know anything about podcasting. I'm dumb when it comes to technology. I'm dumb when it comes to Facebook, and I hate it. Honestly. It drives me crazy because you're not dumb just because you don't know something. It just means you haven't learned it yet, and some stuff you don't have to know. That doesn't make you dumb, it just makes you focused, okay? That's the sort of grandiose problem I want to solve with this show. That leads to me doing 2 episodes a week answering questions in a way that's very driven by making you not feel dumb. Making you understand that you can figure this stuff out, that you don't have to know everything, and that it's okay to just learn it as you go or say forget it, I don't need to know it, because that's cool too. There are things in this world I have learned I do not need to know. I do not need to know a lot of things. I can't think of anything right now off the top of my head that isn't insane, but I don't need to know a lot of things. I don't need to know how my car works. I don't. I just want it to work. It's the joy of marrying a mechanic, I guess, because he can deal with those kind of things but I genuinely don't have any interest in knowing it, I don't have any need to know it, okay? There are things in my business I don't need to know. I don't need to know how the SEO on my site works. I know some, but I don't need to know it all.

| 06 Dec 2016 | Untold Truths of Running a Membership Site | 00:13:48 | |
Welcome to episode 322 of Hit the Mic with The Stacey Harris. It's once again that time, real talk time. I want to talk about membership sites today because we passed our year anniversary of Hit the Mic Backstage a few months ago and I have spent probably almost the entirety of the second half and for sure the bulk so far of the fourth quarter this year all in on making my community better in every way I can, upgrading things, like the sales page, like the checkout system, the onboarding sequence, all of that stuff because of these lessons that I have learned. The three things I want to talk about today, the three lessons that I want to talk about today are the things that I feel I don't get enough conversation, enough highlighting. I think we talk a lot about tech and plugins and content even, but I don't know that we talk enough about these things, certainly before you launch. These are things that I don't think I really digested before I started and so I want to talk about them with you today and I would love to hear your thoughts. Of course if you're a member already, good for you. Don't tell the others, but you're my favorite. You can come over to the private community and talk to me about this there. If you're not a member yet, dude what's your deal? Head over to the Facebook page or even better, join the membership and come talk to us in the private community. That's going to be the best way to do it. All right? Let's jump in. Lesson number one, and this is just a good business lesson in general, even if you don't have a membership site or want to have a membership site. It's not for everyone. Nothing that you do in your business will be something that's a fit for every single person. If you launched a membership site and you're just not feeling it, that's okay. Just because this is the thing that a ton of people really love right now, I know that I launched in August of 2015 and by October I think I knew of like 9 billion people who were launching membership sites. It's been the thing of 2016 because everybody wants the ever-so-mythical recurring passive revenue, which by the way a membership site is not passive. It is recurring if you can keep members. It's not entirely passive. It is certainly more passive than a one-on-one is, but it's not as passive as say me selling on online program like I did with the Rock Star Guides. It's not for everyone. I happen to really love delivering value this way. I happen to really love connecting with my members. I really like being of service to the people I get to be of service with through Hit the Mic Backstage, but it's not for every business model. It doesn't make sense for everyone. It doesn't feel right for everyone, and guess what, guys? That's totally okay. If this is not for you, and you're like, "Well, everyone is doing it, and should I do it? Recurring revenue, rah, rah, rah. That would be Tired of your podcast feeling like just another thing on your to-do list? We can fix it. | |||

| 16 Dec 2016 | 3 Things You Must Know About Automated Social Media | 00:11:03 | |
Welcome to episode 325 of Hit the Mic with the Stacey Harris. You know I'm all about making social simple, making it doable, and making it actionable. I want to talk about something that can get not just a bad rap, but also the positives can be over inflated. We're going to talk about automated social media, specifically the three things I want you to know about automating your social media. This is one of those episodes I really, really want you to make sure that you're doing what is aligned with you, what is aligned with your goals, and what's aligned with your strategy. Automation and social media are one of those conversations that can just, it can get out of hand, and it can get out of hand fast. I want to sort of bring it back in, and talk about some fundamental things that I want you to know whenever you're having those conversations in Facebook groups, with your biz BFF's, your peers, your colleagues, or even total air quotes here, "Social media experts," who may or may not actually be experts. Just saying, okay? Whenever you hear advice around this make sure you're sort of paying attention to these three things as you hear that advice, okay? That's all. Let's jump right in. First thing I want you to know about automated social media is this, it's not evil.It really isn't. I know, I'm sure that you thought I was going to start off with a whole other thing, but I really wanted to start off by saying, "It's not evil, it's not the end of the world." It is simply a tool. It is a tool that can be used badly, and it is a tool that can be used really, really well. It's a tool. It in itself is not good or bad, it's all about how you use it. Make sure that you understand the impact automating your social media has on the people who see your content. On your ideal clients, the people in your community, all of those people, that's what you want to think about. That perspective. When you're considering if you're going to automate at all, or if you're going to automate everything, or if you're going to automate parts of your social media. By the way, there's only one right answer to those three options, between those three options. Make sure you're thinking about the impact it has overall, because that, that is where you get into sticky trouble. That is where you get into people feeling like maybe there's a disconnect, or maybe not getting enough of you because you're not putting out enough content. Maybe you're feeling like you're on social all of the time, but contents just not getting out. Factor that in. Again, automation on it's own, not evil. It's all about how you use it so pay attention to all of the pieces around it. That really leads us to number two. The number two thing I want you to know about automating your social media is that it's not going to be the whole picture.This is precisely why it's not evil. This is going to be ideally a part of your strategy. It's going to be one piece to your puzzle that makes the o Tired of your podcast feeling like just another thing on your to-do list?
