In this episode of the Expert In You Podcast, host Ann Carden interviews Jen DeVore Richter, an outsourced CMO, marketing consultant, speaker, author, magazine publisher, and YouTuber. 

Jen shares her experience working at NASA's Kennedy Space Center as the head of paid advertising and in-park marketing, highlighting the importance of marketing even for well-known brands. She discusses her journey of creating magazine funnels, which merge traditional print publishing with modern online sales processes.

Magazine funnels can be used to build email lists, enhance other marketing efforts, sell advertising, promote products and services, and build authority in an industry. She emphasizes the unique benefits of magazines over books, such as the ability to embed links and videos, change content dynamically, and monetize through advertising.

Jen also offers insights for aspiring magazine publishers, including the importance of mindset, strategy, systems, team building, and measurement. She concludes by mentioning her newly released book titled "Outsource Your Marketing," which provides a step-by-step process for effectively outsourcing marketing efforts.
