Ep #131 - In this episode of Marketing Geeks, Justin Womack and Andros Sturgeon provide LIVE coaching on How To Launch A Successful Podcast for Amy Balliett and Josh Miles of Killer Visual Strategies.

You may remember Amy who appeared as a guest on Marketing Geeks way back in episode #130 AKA the episode immediately prior to this one.

We thought this would be a fun opportunity to take a conversation we would normally have offline and turn it into a podcast episode that everyone can benefit from. Some of the most common questions we receive from listeners tend to surround the topic of starting podcasts, so we hope you can listen in here and get value from the conversation. In this session, we go through a lot of topics fast, including podcast equipment, hosting software, where to record and best practices.

Amy and Josh's podcast is presently under the working title "Decomplexified" and maintains a target release for March 2021.

As a refresher, Amy Balliett is the founder and CEO of Killer Visual Strategies, a creative content agency with more than a decade of experience and a client list that includes global brands like Microsoft, Adobe, Starbucks, the United Nations, and more. With her deep expertise in visual marketing, Amy has been invited to speak for major conferences including SXSW, Adobe MAX, and SMX, while also being a frequent guest instructor for major colleges and universities, as well as a featured course instructor with LinkedIn Learning.

Ep #129 - On an all-new Marketing Geeks, Justin Womack and Andros Sturgeon sit down with Alex Serdiuk, the co-founder of Respeecher, and a master at creating audio deepfakes. Respeecher is a voice cloning company co-founded by Alex that presently serves clients in Hollywood, but has ambitions set for a much broader market with technology that has the potential to disrupt several industries. 

Respeecher creates high-quality synthesized speech that has been used in small screen and big screen Hollywood projects. In fact, there's a pretty good chance you've already seen their work... that is, if you happened to watch Season 2 of a certain Disney+ Star Wars TV show. 

What's really amazing about Respeecher and their voice cloning technology is the potential use cases... In this episode, we discuss use cases involving things like changing someone's accent in real-time during a phone call or Zoom session, helping people that have lost the ability to speak reclaim their voices, licensing out celebrity voices and reducing the need of the individuals to record in-studio for hours and hours on end, and more.

Alex is an innovator and his company will likely make some massive waves in 2021 and beyond. If you've heard the term "deepfakes" thrown around on various media outlets without knowing what it means, this episode explains everything.

Ep #123 - This week on the Marketing Geeks Podcast, we sit down with the Aaron Iara, creator of The Effective Nerd. It's the geeks versus the nerd as we settle the debate once and for all as to who is cooler, geeks or nerds... It turns out it's nerds, so it got awkward quick. 

Our guest, Aaron Iara, describes himself as a life-long nerdy person with a wide variety of interests and a passion for making music.

After graduating college, Aaron found himself in a position where his degree wasn't landing him jobs and his student loan debt was piling up. It was at this point that he began working smarter, not harder so he could lead a productive life while maintaining his nerdy obsessions. The only alternative would be accept a soul deadening job that would pay the bills, but come at the cost of his quality of life.

Over the past decade, he's built up his skill-sets and maintained The Effective Nerd blog which continues to grow in popularity. He's navigated the speed bumps, survived the scares and now has begun to teach others how he has been able to make a living WITHOUT a corporate job.
