The Bold Life Movement with Kimberly Rich

Jeremy Slate: How To Build A Network Of Influencers


Listen Later

Jeremy is a tenacious and successful podcaster who’s about to

take his show the ‘Create Your Own Life Podcast’ from 3 days a week
to 5!   He’s so dedicated to providing value for his
listeners, and he knows that adding the extra two days will give
that much more to his subscribers and take his show to the next
level.

The ‘Create Your Own Life Podcast’ was born from his desire help

others to lead the life of their dreams. The guests on his podcast
give usable action steps that listeners can run with to build the
life they envision for themselves.

Not only do his listeners get great insights from his podcast

guests, but Jeremy does as well. He recently had on Calvin Wayman
and one of the lessons that Calvin discussed that really hit home
with Jeremy, was the idea of not waiting for things to be perfect
before you take action. It doesn’t have to be perfect; it
just has to be done.

There are many reasons his listeners tune in, but one thing that

Jeremy hopes many of them get is a mind shift from thinking and
worrying about problems to being geared towards finding solutions.
Problems lead to solutions, and solutions lead to potential
business ideas. This simple shift also makes the different between
feeling hopeless, vs. Constantly seeing opportunities.

Jeremy has worked hard to determine his goals and why he’s

pursuing them. When you understand what you really want and why
this drives you, you’re motivated to focus on the actions that push
you towards your goals. This has led to some incredible success
with his podcast.

From the get-go, Jeremy knew that for his podcast to be a

success he needed to interview some big names with large followings
of their own. He gave us some great tips for communicating
with and gaining the trust of influential people:

  • Make a list of 100 important/influential/admired people that
  • you really want to talk to, interview and network with.
  • Find their email addresses – sneaky email hack:
  • guesses.
  • Compose tantalizing emails where you show them the impact
  • they’ve had on you, how you respect what they’re doing and how you
    can help them achieve more.
  • Know what they are working on now and how you can help with
  • that.
  • Offer to help and even to work with their PR people.
  • Use boosted posts in Facebook for promoting influential guests
  • with large followings.

    To make the most of your time with

    influencers:

    • Be the person most interested in him or her. You’re not asking
    • questions for your listeners, but for yourself to learn and grow
      from. This helps to create a real relationship as opposed to it
      being just an interview.
    • Do your research and target your questions and comments around
    • the things the guest is interested in but nobody ever asks
      about.
    • Show you care!
    • Jeremy believes that being bold is ignoring the negativity,

      forgetting what the outside world is telling you, knowing your
      purpose and always moving forward. So many gems in this interview
      with Jeremy, he's definitely one to watch.

       

      SOME QUESTIONS I ASK:

      • How do his beliefs differ from people who are not creating life
      • on their terms?
      • Which thought leaders have inspired him on his journey?
      • Did big name guests help to promote their appearances on his
      • podcast?
      • Why take the show from 3 episodes per week to 5 per week
      • If he could be mentored by any [living] person, who would it
      • be?

         

        IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:

        • Some of the great lessons that Jeremy learned from interviewing
        • guests on his show.
