- How to Make Money Blogging without Sponsored Posts with Alex Jimenez - 39
My friend Alex Jimenez has the most visited travel blog in the world.
She started out working with brands via sponsored posts, but there is an easier way that doesn’t include high expectations and frustration.
Today, she’s making money with her traffic, affiliate links, and even her own product line for other travel fashion girls like her!
The smart thing she did from day one - focused on SEO. She uses outlets like Media Vine and Ad Thrive to turn that traffic into profit.

- USMC Leadership Traits to Excel in Business with Rich Cardona - 38
Leadership is key - whether you’re a boss with a team or an employee in corporate America. It’s all about communication and avoiding pitfalls.
Rich Cardona is a Marine who is opening up his leadership toolbox so we can take everything from good leaders and bad leaders to develop our own style.
In this episode, he is also going to touch on the three big questions we must always be asking ourselves:
- What do I know?
- Who needs to know?
- Do they know?
We also talk about how to deal with defensive people and when we should stop trying to prove a point.

- How to Work with Influencers to Sell More of your Product with Dhar Mann - 37
Dhar Mann bootstrapped his business from just $600 and is on track to do $20 million in 2019.
He went from real estate, to medical marijuana, and is now in the cosmetics industry… and he’s making all of this money without spending one dollar on advertising.
Live Glam started when Dhar met a beauty influencer who was selling out of makeup seminars, so Dhar wanted to get in on it and partner with the influencer.
By working with beauty influencers, Dhar was able to save money and split all commissions 50/50, then going from online class subscriptions to product subscriptions.
In this episode, Dhar will show you how to approach influencers so they work with you on a commission only basis.

- The Online Scams, Lies, and Fakers you Believe... Until Now - 36
I’m so annoyed with all the scams, stretched truths, and just straight up bullsh*t so many people believe about getting media exposure.
I touched on this during my talk at the Mom 2.0 Summit in Austin, Texas and wanted to bring it to the podcast because there is a big difference between a journalist, a blogger, an influencer, and a publicist.
Today, too many are using these titles interchangeably while behaving unethically and breaking the law.
There are four big issues I touch on in this episode:
- You cannot charge brands or people for coverage in or on an outlet you don’t own or work for in the sales department.
- You should not pay for any media coverage.
- Take good marketing copy and affiliate promotions with a grain of salt
- Do not spend any time or money on press release distribution services
I was prompted to record this episode after hearing way too many stories from people who fell for scams, stretched truths, and straight up bullsh*t because it looked and sounded good.
Hopefully, this episode will help you make wiser decisions moving forward.
