  • RED 190: My Midlife Crisis (And How I’m Moving Forward)

    I haven't talked about this publicly, but for the last couple of years I've been trying to “figure things out.” The biggest problem was that my business wasn't as fun as it used to be… So I did something about it last week. I've gotten feedback from people who were surprised by my decision, which […]

  • RED 189: Marketing Lessons From ISIS
    Poor al-Qaeda. They're not getting nearly the attention they used to now that ISIS is on the scene.

    Why? Because ISIS kicks ass at marketing itself and bringing in new members.

    How are they doing it? And how can your business use similar techniques for bringing in new customers? That's what I talk about on this episode of RED Podcast...

    What You'll Learn:

    - Why ISIS loves women (even though they don't allow women to be fighters)
    - Where ISIS couples go for a honeymoon
    - What ISIS and nightclubs have in common
    - The marketing secret behind dance studios -- this is one of the biggest recruiting tools used by ISIS (even though they don't dance)
    - Should you join Alcoholics Anonymous or ISIS? Why people may get confused...
    - What does Alcoholics Anonymous and ISIS have in common (other than members who don't drink)?
    - The marketing link between strip clubs and ISIS
    - How conferences and seminars sell tickets
    - What network marketing companies (and ISIS) won't tell you
    - Why we have porn (in case you didn't know)
    - What community looks like (and how you can make money with it)
    - "Gay Pride" -- how to make it work for you (even if neither you nor your customers are gay)
    - Is this the most predatory marketing you've ever seen?

          • RED 187: My War On Christmas
            A lot of authors, speakers, and podcasters (the people who listen to this podcast) are pretty vocal about their faith (as well as a lot of other factors which have nothing to do with their businesses).

            Don't be an idiot when it comes to this.

            Sometimes, letting somebody in on personal details of your life will help your business. Other times though, it can severely limit your growth and income.

            What You'll Learn:

            - Marketing lessons from a "Christmas" event
            - Merry Christmas - Does this statement belong in your marketing?
            - A small business in a small town that ended up being on FOX - News (and in the middle of a big controversy)
            - Never assume this... Never.
            - Doing business in the Bible Belt
            - How one receptionist is costing her boss a lot of business (it's not what you think)
            - Why some people in the Bible Belt are getting their panties in a wad
            - The story of a popular music producer (he's sold over 30,000,000 albums) and how he handles the "War On Christmas"
            - When you assume this, you can also assume your business is going to fail
            - Is your message loaded? A lesson for you... Let's not make this any harder than it has to be.
            - How an "out of town" woman screwed things up for a local business who didn't want any trouble
            - The #1 thing your customers want from you
            - A good reason not to flaunt your "lifestyle"
            - Have a Rolex watch? A rule for you to follow...
