The Consistency Corner

Today I'm so excited to bring my friend Kylie back to the podcast, this time to talk all about how you can become more visible as a business owner, through hosting your own virtual summit. She shared so much value about the process, as well as a good dose of honesty about the results she's seen and how summits have fast-tracked everything for her.In this episode we covered: How Kylie was able to grow her email list really FAST through virtual summits and how she made sure that a summit energetically made sense for her. The importance of showing up consistently - and how you only fail if you decide to quit. How virtual summits can be a powerful tool to grow your audience and the top of your funnel - and fast track your relationship with your new leads. You don't need an existing email list to start hosting your own summits - but the key is to align yourself with speakers that have your ideal client as a part of their audience. The different types of visibility strategies you can choose from, depending on your goal. CONNECT WITH KYLIE:The Spotlight Club: CLICK HEREWebsite: www.kyliekelly.comBlocking time on your calendar to work on your marketing content is the first step to getting consistent.

I'm excited to bring this conversation to The Consistency Corner Podcast - and share it with you! This week I interviewed Nadine Zumot. Nadine is a Money Energetics Coach who empowers her communities to heal their relationship with money so they can lead a more authentic life and embody their life's purpose. This is something a little different for the podcast - but I know you're going to love this as much as I did! In this interview we chatted about: Why a lot of us are suffering with money fear & trauma - and what that means for us & our future. How important it is to heal any financial trauma that you're suffering from and why Nadine is so passionate about it. Why money wounds go deeper than just mindset - which means that mindset work alone is never enough to heal these kinds of money wounds. What happens if business owners don't heal their own money wounds & how that can show up for them. What the experience working with an money energetics coach looks like and the types of things she digs into with her clients. CONNECT WITH NADINE:Instagram: www.instagram.com/nadinezumotBlocking time on your calendar to work on your marketing content is the first step to getting consistent.

Oh my goodness - WELCOME to the 100th episode of The Consistency Corner Podcast! I can't believe we're here and I'm so thankful for each and every one of you - today though I want to talk to you about the 5 things that the instagram influencers are not telling you about marketing your business! Let's dive in!I covered: - Why we need to understand the foundations and fundamentals of marketing to actually get results on social media.  - My opinion on niching down - and why I agree that niching down is important. When you talk to ONE person, other people eavesdrop (but when you talk to everyone, no one listens!)   - Social media is not a business strategy, it's a container for your message - likes and followers won't convert to sales. - Stop consuming tips on how to grow your instagram - if you don't have a full funnel fleshed out behind the scenes - it won't lead to results or sales.  - If you're new in your business, you don't need a social media manager - you need a content strategist that will help you figure out how to actually get sales and what strategies to focus on.

This week on the podcast I'm honored to introduce you to Molly Knuth from Molly Knuth Media! Molly is on a mission to help women in small towns rewrite how they live and work on their own terms. She knows modern women want to grow families, build businesses or side hustles, impact others for the better, and be a positive force in our communities…but they also want to have a fulfilling life along the way.In the past 6 years Molly has gone from a stay-at-home mom to a freelance social media marketer to a #bossbabe at Molly Knuth Media managing client needs, talented team members, and her husband and four kiddos on their little farm in Eastern Iowa. What she’s learned in that time is that it’s not just about going full force or any one-size-fits-all strategy for success in business or in life. It takes you leaning into your unique gifts, intuition, and goals, and learning about who you are as a person along the way.In this interview we chatted about: Why we can't use social media to measure our success - or validate us or what we do. Molly shared advice on how to combat that feeling that we've failed when something we share on social media doesn't get the engagement or interaction we were hoping for. The importance of cultivating real relationships on social media - and how we actually do that as business owners. The strategy behind Molly choosing to have two seperate Instagram pages for her and her business and why she decided to do this - and the results she sees keeping them seperate. CONNECT WITH MOLLY: Website: https://mollyknuthmedia.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mollyknuth_mkmPodcast: The Found PodcastBlocking time on your calendar to work on your marketing content is the first step to getting consistent.

Today we're talking all about the success equation and how that applies to your marketing funnel and results. Back in the very first episode we chatted all about the success equation - because it is so powerful to ensure that your getting the results you want (regardless of what area of life you're wanting results in!) The success equation is: Time + Intensity + Consistency X Belief = Results. But how does that apply to your marketing? That's what we cover during this episode! I covered: - What the success equation is AND what your marketing funnel is and how they are related.- How the belief component of the success equation is the most important - and what people struggle with the most (and why we need to keep working on our mindset 24/7) - Intensity & Consistency and how that can lead to burnout unless you pick a pace that will actually be achievable for you in the long term. - Where can you layer in 'one more thing' at an intensity that you can maintain. - Why we need to celebrate the process over progress - because sometimes it takes time to see results!
