Speaker:

Aloha and welcome to the Flow.

Speaker:

I am Doc Rock, Community Manager for Ecamm Live with my co-host,

Speaker:

Katie Fawkes.

Speaker:

Hey Katie Fawkes.

Speaker:

Wow.

Speaker:

Hey, Doc Rock.

Speaker:

This is kinda cool.

Speaker:

We're in our spot.

Speaker:

I'm not over there hogging up all of your space at the big desk.

Speaker:

It feels so empty and lonely over here.

Speaker:

I'm like, Oh no, there's no one here anymore.

Speaker:

Yeah, I'm sorry.

Speaker:

I'm super sorry.

Speaker:

No, I am all good.

Speaker:

I am kinda feeling that I'm gonna have to move the Jura down here to

Speaker:

the office instead of in the kitchen.

Speaker:

Cause I just wanna across the room and press the button for a cup of coffee.

Speaker:

But we are back in action doing The Flow and today we would like

Speaker:

to introduce you to something new.

Speaker:

Uh, first of all, we're gonna go through our regularly scheduled program

Speaker:

and answer our questions at the end.

Speaker:

And we are recording this live on our YouTube channel that we do every

Speaker:

single Tuesday at 12:00 PM Eastern.

Speaker:

But today we did something really special and we have Mr.

Speaker:

Luis Vega, aka Mr.

Speaker:

Camera Junkie, remote producing.

Speaker:

So we are an official podcast because we have a producer.

Speaker:

It's so much fun having a podcast producer.

Speaker:

We're gonna, we'll have to share some fun behind the scenes clips and talk

Speaker:

through what that process doesn't, that experience is like, because I think a

Speaker:

lot of people have questions about that.

Speaker:

So if you are one of those people that have questions about it, Let us know

Speaker:

what your questions are and maybe we'll do an entire episode where we cover

Speaker:

remote production and how to produce a podcast or a live show using Ecamm.

Speaker:

That is very, very insightful and I think it would be even good to talk

Speaker:

about how I came up with the reflow.

Speaker:

Yeah, the Reflow.

Speaker:

And it's good to call out that sometimes you need a reflow

Speaker:

when you had an original flow.

Speaker:

So we had an original plan and then we reflowed it.

Speaker:

You know, I think a lot of people get stuck in the fact that

Speaker:

these plans are liquid, right?

Speaker:

They get stuck in the think that the plan is the plan, but sometimes you have to

Speaker:

make the plan liquid so you can find out what works best for all parties involved.

Speaker:

And the number one reason why we went to remote producer is because

Speaker:

Luis has always been our editor.

Speaker:

And it's a little bit easier to edit when you already know what to

Speaker:

expect from expecting nice movie.

Speaker:

Well, yeah, and you have all the files up front, so it means that we're, Luis

Speaker:

is not waiting for Doc and I to send and upload and pass along files later.

Speaker:

And then like while we're doing this and he's producing, he can make little notes

Speaker:

here and there and he even has the ability to chime in from the back if we needed

Speaker:

to hear the disembodied voice of Vega.

Speaker:

I actually made a scene in the files there's a scene called Producer,

Speaker:

so he could load his camera up at any given moment and cut in.

Speaker:

You see this a lot in Howard Stern.

Speaker:

And some of the other like radio shows that are televised.

Speaker:

Every once in a while you'll see the producer cut in and say, you

Speaker:

know, so forth, so and cetera.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

So it has happened.

Speaker:

I like, my favorite of this genre would be Wally on Seth Meyers when Wally comes in.

Speaker:

But Wally's just a cute guy.

Speaker:

But now they've made Wally a big figure of the show.

Speaker:

So Wally actually has part of the jokes and you'll often see the

Speaker:

producers of various shows chime in and you'll see them with their

Speaker:

headsets on and say anything so,

Speaker:

Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker:

I love it.

Speaker:

I think it, I think it's gonna be really fun.

Speaker:

So get ready for us to force Luis on screen more often.

Speaker:

at the exact same time.

Speaker:

Aidan says something and then he's gonna be like, I can't, I can't come.

Speaker:

Well, actually, I think to, to sidestep into our topic for today, one of the

Speaker:

main reasons why we needed to reflow was that we have this very specific

Speaker:

plan and vision for the flow in which we are doing more than just podcasting.

Speaker:

We're creating all kinds of pieces of content at the same time.

Speaker:

So having a producer is that first step in making sure that the final file that

Speaker:

we're gonna cut up and use in a bunch of different ways, gets to the first person

Speaker:

faster so that we're more efficient and we're creating a better workflow.

Speaker:

So yeah, so I think it's a good kind of intro into today's topic.

Speaker:

All about content repurposing is if that is your mission and what you're

Speaker:

doing with your live show or with your podcast, then you need to be constantly

Speaker:

asking yourself, are you doing it as effectively and efficiently as you can be?

Speaker:

And if not, what are those changes that you can do to make it easier

Speaker:

on yourself or on your team.

Speaker:

So that it does become second nature and moves a lot faster, it wasn't

Speaker:

moving crazy slow for us, but it was creating delays that were unnecessary

Speaker:

and we're podcasting every single week.

Speaker:

We do need to be able to save as much time as we can cuz we are doing

Speaker:

other things during the week and so not that we don't just live and

Speaker:

breathe podcasting, but we're doing other things during the week as well.

Speaker:

I like that.

Speaker:

I like the idea.

Speaker:

Of living and breathing, podcasting cause it's a fool.

Speaker:

I've definitely been listening to a lot.

Speaker:

It's funny thing when you start your own podcast, you may have already been

Speaker:

listening to podcast, but one of the things you will almost automatically

Speaker:

do is start listening to more podcasts.

Speaker:

Liven things up.

Speaker:

Well, um, the Jason Bateman Will Arnett, and

Speaker:

smartless?

Speaker:

Uh, what the heck is Sean's last name?

Speaker:

Smart.

Speaker:

Oh, Sean.

Speaker:

Um, man, no, I can think of it.

Speaker:

Sean Cannell.

Speaker:

That's not who.

Speaker:

It's,

Speaker:

um, yeah.

Speaker:

That is so good.

Speaker:

That is so, so good.

Speaker:

The Ricky Gervais episode just recently came out and it really, really good.

Speaker:

Yes.

Speaker:

That's a good podcast to listen to if you want to hear just what it's like to

Speaker:

do a casual podcast that is very good.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Yeah, I have, I almost have too many favorites at this point.

Speaker:

I can't You just always, I'm just walking around with headphones

Speaker:

in my ears twenty four seven.

Speaker:

Like favorite kids?

Speaker:

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker:

You can't pick favorite kids.

Speaker:

Can't pick favorite podcasts.

Speaker:

Not possible.

Speaker:

All right.

Speaker:

Let's talk about some repurposing right now.

Speaker:

What exactly is podcast repurposing?

Speaker:

Yeah, well, we'll see.

Speaker:

What does podcast repurposing mean to you, Katie, as a marketing director?

Speaker:

Oh my goodness, that's a great question.

Speaker:

I think as we're thinking specifically about it, it's an intentional workflow,

Speaker:

and so the thought isn't just that we're podcasting and putting out audio only

Speaker:

content on the major podcast platforms, but we're really creating an entire.

Speaker:

Community around multiple pieces of content that we're putting in the places

Speaker:

where we know those audiences live.

Speaker:

So in the case of a podcast repurposing, we obviously know

Speaker:

we need the audio out there.

Speaker:

We are obviously a video podcast, so we, you know, we're also building

Speaker:

a YouTube audience of YouTube live studio audience members, and we're

Speaker:

building a YouTube audience of replay viewers who are stumbling

Speaker:

across our videos or replay videos and getting to know us a lot better.

Speaker:

But then we're, you know, We're sprinkling as, as Stephanie Liu always puts it,

Speaker:

our digital confetti, our content out across all the social platforms

Speaker:

in various ways and across our blog.

Speaker:

So we're putting our podcast in all of these different places in

Speaker:

the form that is most impactful for the audience that's there.

Speaker:

So if people wanna read, they can get the content by reading.

Speaker:

If people want to listen, they can get it by listening.

Speaker:

If they want to watch, they can get it by watching.

Speaker:

If they want it short, they can get little clips of it and just be

Speaker:

able to get the digestible content.

Speaker:

We're being really intentional about that from the start.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

You know, for me, I want to call it the Starbucks strategy.

Speaker:

This is the Schult strategy, the, the thing that made Starbucks great.

Speaker:

I have a distinct memory of walking into my first ever Starbucks when they

Speaker:

were only basically in Washington and San Francisco, like they added, you

Speaker:

know, spread all over and there was one of the original 10 was built next to

Speaker:

the Marconi Center in San Francisco.

Speaker:

And I was going for a Mac World conference, like back in the

Speaker:

era of the, uh, titanium, no, actually the 12 inch Power Book.

Speaker:

Now don't remember.

Speaker:

It's right about the 12 inch power book, if you guys remember, that was a

Speaker:

square notebook, like perfectly square, one of the best power books ever made.

Speaker:

We went to go find this coffee shop Starbucks, and I was just hearing

Speaker:

that, you know, is coming from Seattle and like, like it's a thing

Speaker:

still not that much people drinking coffee in the middle of the day.

Speaker:

So Starbucks strategy was put one on every corner.

Speaker:

Yep.

Speaker:

Like they went for the, If I constantly see a Starbucks, you

Speaker:

start thinking about it and thinking about it, thinking about it.

Speaker:

And I remember maybe like two or three years later when the first one popped

Speaker:

up in Hawaii and before the end of the year, there were seven of them in Hawaii.

Speaker:

and I was like, Why did they make so many?

Speaker:

But then you know, later you hear there's like ten in Hawaii and now

Speaker:

I think there's 38 and our island.

Speaker:

Anybody who's been here knows our island's not that huge.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

And then you go like, pretty much any major city, they're everywhere.

Speaker:

So I'm thinking of this repurposing thing similar to that, the advantage of

Speaker:

taking these clips and putting 'em in all the places where people might bump

Speaker:

into you and accidentally discover you, you are increasing your chance for your

Speaker:

podcast to grow, and you don't have to be, Hey, look at me, Look at me about it.

Speaker:

You can just drip little Hansel and Gretel crumbs everywhere, and people

Speaker:

will end up finding you if you're bringing value to something they like or

Speaker:

comfort to their busy day, or allowing them a little moment of escapism.

Speaker:

Whatever your podcast subject matter is about, having those crumbs in places

Speaker:

where people can discover them is more likely to help you grow your show.

Speaker:

Yeah, and I think you're, you're also being in your Starbucks analogy, you're

Speaker:

being respectful of the way that people want to interact with you and the way

Speaker:

that they want to consume your content.

Speaker:

So Starbucks was like, you know, people who live on one side of Hawaii are not

Speaker:

gonna wanna drive all the way to the other side of Hawaii, even if they love coffee.

Speaker:

And they've heard about us and they want, you know, they really wanna experience us.

Speaker:

We need to make it convenient for them in the same.

Speaker:

We need to make it convenient for all of our listeners and potential listeners

Speaker:

and viewers to consume our content.

Speaker:

And that might be that someone watches clips of your show on IG reels for

Speaker:

years before they ever say, Oh, you know, I have an extra hour right now.

Speaker:

I'm taking the dog for a walk.

Speaker:

Or, I'm cleaning, or I'm driving, or whatever.

Speaker:

I can check out, you know, what this experience is like.

Speaker:

In a audio podcast environment, I think you've made that convenient

Speaker:

and you've been there consistently for them in the way that they want

Speaker:

to and like to consume content.

Speaker:

That's much better than just being like, Hey, my podcast is only over here.

Speaker:

Catch me when you can.

Speaker:

And you know, or just saying that out loud and broadcasting that

Speaker:

out loud on different platforms.

Speaker:

No one wants to hear that.

Speaker:

No one wants to hear.

Speaker:

Come to my store.

Speaker:

Come to my store.

Speaker:

Come to my store.

Speaker:

Come to my store.

Speaker:

They, they wanna get the value out of the content first.

Speaker:

See if they know, like, and trust you, you know?

Speaker:

And then after a while, if it's convenient for them and they know you

Speaker:

and like you, then maybe they'll make a change from being an Instagram person

Speaker:

to a podcast person or a blog reader.

Speaker:

Podcast person or a podcast person to a YouTube person.

Speaker:

It people have build up that routine and that consistency, and you're not

Speaker:

gonna easily change them just because you're shouting or shouting the loudest.

Speaker:

That is super funny.

Speaker:

All I can think of is catch me outside.

Speaker:

How about that?

Speaker:

Sorry.

Speaker:

So let's get to our first question, What content can you turn your podcast into?

Speaker:

Oh my goodness.

Speaker:

I love this question.

Speaker:

Yeah, it's funny cause normally Katie asked me the question, but

Speaker:

I needed to ask ask this to Katie because Katie is just amazing at this.

Speaker:

So I had to flip the question situation this one time.

Speaker:

Sorry Kates go.

Speaker:

No, no, it's good.

Speaker:

This is my episode.

Speaker:

I get to talk.

Speaker:

I love it.

Speaker:

Okay, so there's, there's a ton of them.

Speaker:

I think Mike Alton says 26.

Speaker:

I've heard people say hundreds.

Speaker:

It depends on how deep you wanna break it into.

Speaker:

But the basic categories are video, so you can start with a live video.

Speaker:

So let's say we start with live video, since that's what we're doing.

Speaker:

So we start with a live video.

Speaker:

We record in front of a live audience.

Speaker:

That's our live video.

Speaker:

One piece of content, the replay video that YouTube is automatically

Speaker:

gonna move from live to replay.

Speaker:

Once we are off air, no longer on air, that's two, that's a replay video that

Speaker:

people are gonna discover and consume and ask questions for, and it's continuing

Speaker:

to kind of build a life on YouTube.

Speaker:

Then we send that video over to Luis and he edits it down to just the core

Speaker:

content, so it's a shorter video, which then we re-upload into a separate

Speaker:

playlist on YouTube as a replay video.

Speaker:

So that's a shorter video.

Speaker:

That's three.

Speaker:

We could break that video down into shorter video clips in

Speaker:

either vertical or horizontal.

Speaker:

So let's say four or five that we could put out onto YouTube

Speaker:

shorts, Instagram reels, Facebook posts, Twitter, et cetera, right?

Speaker:

Those are our social posts.

Speaker:

We can take the transcript using our favorite tool over at Descript.

Speaker:

We can grab that transcript and we can turn that into a

Speaker:

blog post or a PDF article.

Speaker:

So that's what are we at, seven and eight if we go both of those as separate pieces.

Speaker:

And then we have the, obviously the podcast, the audio side of it, right?

Speaker:

So that's nine.

Speaker:

We could also do from the audio side of it, We could do audiograms, which

Speaker:

are, you know, visual interpretations of just audio and not video.

Speaker:

So that's 10.

Speaker:

And then if you have like guests on, or you have any additional

Speaker:

people, you can turn that into a product review or a testimonial video

Speaker:

or a graphic with a quote on it.

Speaker:

So the, all of those are additional pieces of content that you can be

Speaker:

able to get out across various places.

Speaker:

So you know, at Ecamm, almost every live video and certainly this podcast

Speaker:

that we do, if you know Doc or I say something really awesome or catchy or

Speaker:

highlight, you know, one of the Ecamm features, or we have a guest on that

Speaker:

just says like, Oh my goodness, I love everything about what you're doing.

Speaker:

I can clip that out, and that can become a testimonial or a quote

Speaker:

or a review that we can put on our website or different places.

Speaker:

I think I got to 10 or 11, but certainly you can do more depending

Speaker:

on what your workflow is like.

Speaker:

But the basics are, get it into a watchable video format.

Speaker:

Get it into a listenable audio format.

Speaker:

Get it short, short form, digestible content, and then get it into a

Speaker:

written format so that it's searchable and discoverable by all the players.

Speaker:

So, Baseline four.

Speaker:

And then you can go much deeper if you want to.

Speaker:

Much deeper.

Speaker:

I wanna add, uh, two more to the list.

Speaker:

Oh, awesome.

Speaker:

So it turns out that after you get a couple episodes in your belt,

Speaker:

you can generate digest, right.

Speaker:

And especially if you're doing a podcast about something that's sort of linear

Speaker:

or there's a growth aspect to it.

Speaker:

You can bend 10 things we learned over the podcast this season, right?

Speaker:

So you can drop that out as a PDF for people diving into the next season.

Speaker:

We could do like cliff notes, versions as PDF takeaways as well.

Speaker:

Now you could also generate a course or books out of the things that have

Speaker:

basically come outta your podcast.

Speaker:

So for instance, someone like Ash Borland or Pat Flynn, or you know, some of our

Speaker:

other creators who have really, you've been doing podcasts for a long time.

Speaker:

They could generate an entire book just out of the things that they've

Speaker:

said in their podcasts over and say the the last 99 to a hundred episodes.

Speaker:

One of the advantages of being prolific is you get quicker to

Speaker:

being able to print a printable copy of something from your podcast.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

You do get into the habit of creating content in this live to tape format, and

Speaker:

it does make it significantly easier.

Speaker:

You know, I come from a writing background where I used to

Speaker:

have to sit there for hours.

Speaker:

You know, you're putting in all of the research, you're staring at that

Speaker:

blinking cursor being like, Okay, what?

Speaker:

You know, what is the best title?

Speaker:

How do I lay this?

Speaker:

Talking it out.

Speaker:

I mean, you still have to do obviously, all the research in the topic that

Speaker:

you're presenting, but talking it out, especially talking it out with a

Speaker:

guest or with a cohost, makes it much easier later to take that content,

Speaker:

reflow it, or you know, reorganize it.

Speaker:

The text is all there.

Speaker:

You've said it, you've put it all, you've put it all down.

Speaker:

It's a much faster process to take an existing piece of content, whether

Speaker:

it's audio or video, and turn that into a blog post than it is to write

Speaker:

a blog post or a course, or an article or a PDF based on an idea you have.

Speaker:

It is much easier to start talking that through when you have people contributing

Speaker:

to that conversation, questions coming up.

Speaker:

You're not end up with a much more inclusive piece of content than if you had

Speaker:

just sat there and written it by yourself.

Speaker:

Very true.

Speaker:

Very true.

Speaker:

Man, just, there's so many possibilities.

Speaker:

It's kind of funny because I don't think that automatically when

Speaker:

you do it, you think of all of the many things that you can do.

Speaker:

However, when you start creating them, you realize you have been consuming

Speaker:

clips and pieces of podcasts forever.

Speaker:

Yep.

Speaker:

There's an entire show on HBO.

Speaker:

That came out of the Adnan Syed case because of Serial, right?

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

There've been several documentaries about it.

Speaker:

So I mean, talk about the ultimate repurposing right there.

Speaker:

Is, you might even end up on an HBO show.

Speaker:

Right, And

Speaker:

yeah.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

I

Speaker:

just thought of it too, because you and Karen are both in the

Speaker:

middle of the book, or Karen's almost done, actually take it back.

Speaker:

She finished it yesterday.

Speaker:

I'm done.

Speaker:

I'm a fast reader.

Speaker:

Oh yeah.

Speaker:

Ok.

Speaker:

So she finished it yesterday.

Speaker:

And again, there's a podcast host who basically started their show during

Speaker:

the pandemic and basically in two and a half years wrote an entire book

Speaker:

and now the book is a bestseller.

Speaker:

And they're, uh, no pun intended, they're killing it.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Cool thing about that, that's really important to drive home

Speaker:

to all of you listening and watching is that podcast host.

Speaker:

Shout out to our friends at Morbid who don't know we exist,

Speaker:

but we love them nonetheless.

Speaker:

But shout out to our friends at Morbid, they built a community, right?

Speaker:

A community of listeners who were putting them in their ears every single week,

Speaker:

sometimes multiple times a week, who were binging their show at a time where

Speaker:

people didn't have a ton else to do.

Speaker:

We were stuck in our homes.

Speaker:

We were trying to find ways and outlets to de-stress or to, you know,

Speaker:

make things feel somewhat normal.

Speaker:

And so when it came time for her to want to write a book and to finish her book,

Speaker:

which she had been wanting to do for forever, she had a built-in audience.

Speaker:

So launching that book was significantly easier.

Speaker:

So, You know, if you're sitting here and you're like, Oh, I really wanna

Speaker:

start this business, or I really wanna grow a membership, or have a

Speaker:

course, starting with a podcast, and really putting the work in to find

Speaker:

those followers and that audience and that community in all of those places

Speaker:

where you're sprinkling your content.

Speaker:

You know, that's gonna make it so much easier when it does come

Speaker:

time to say, Hey, you know, I just launched my awesome new t-shirt line.

Speaker:

Or I wrote a book, or I'm launching this course.

Speaker:

You have an built in audience of people who know the content you're

Speaker:

bringing to them is valuable.

Speaker:

Like you, know you, and trust you and are much, much more likely

Speaker:

to not only purchase that item.

Speaker:

But to be diehard fans, I mean, that book launched and everyone shared video

Speaker:

clips of how excited that they were or pre-ordering it, or, I mean, they had

Speaker:

built the campaign without even needing to do the work in building the campaign.

Speaker:

Their fans built the campaign for them and were often running.

Speaker:

So that kind of momentum comes from putting in the work and doing the

Speaker:

community aspect of it and really making yourself accessible to your community.

Speaker:

Since that must have been cool to enjoy as a fan.

Speaker:

But as a fan that has experience in book publishing and promoting, like from the

Speaker:

marketing aspect of marketing a book.

Speaker:

So you saw it totally different than many of the other people do that.

Speaker:

And now that experience itself is your own.

Speaker:

And it probably drags you deeper into the Morbid verse, if you will.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Cause that sounds weird, unless you know what we're talking about.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Morbid.

Speaker:

If you don't know, Morbid is a True Crime podcast.

Speaker:

It's awesome.

Speaker:

If you wanna listen to a True Crime podcast, I will say that like it's often

Speaker:

funny for me as a marketing professional.

Speaker:

To kind of experience situations like this where, where really

Speaker:

good content repurposing gets me.

Speaker:

So they were talking almost every single episode about the release of this book.

Speaker:

And you know, they're like, you should pre-order a copy.

Speaker:

And they had a bunch of fun gimmicks and tactics where if you preorder a copy.

Speaker:

You could get, you know, XYZ thing or you know, things that were popping up

Speaker:

and I totally was like, Yeah, I'm in.

Speaker:

Like, I'll, you know, I'll preorder a copy, so I preordered

Speaker:

a copy and then I'm invested.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

Then, you know, when they were like, Oh, now we have new t-shirts, we have

Speaker:

this new stuff that's coming out and.

Speaker:

You know, and then I'm scrolling through Instagram.

Speaker:

I see their information about the book pop up.

Speaker:

Someone's commenting about how they have like, cool glow in the dark socks.

Speaker:

I'm like, I'm a sock person.

Speaker:

I'm like, it, You end up, because you've put it in the place.

Speaker:

I, I listen to the podcast.

Speaker:

They don't have a video side of things, but they have an Instagram channel

Speaker:

and the content on their Instagram.

Speaker:

Is not exactly the same as the content that goes onto their podcast, but

Speaker:

it's just similar enough that it makes me want to go there as well.

Speaker:

And people who are there, it gets them thinking, Oh, I, I'm missing

Speaker:

the whole story behind these images or this video that I wanna be

Speaker:

able to listen to this podcast.

Speaker:

So in repurposing, you're not just putting the same content

Speaker:

in the same form everywhere.

Speaker:

Today, you know, we're doing our first podcast that's remote produced, so putting

Speaker:

out a little short video clip that I take with my phone that talks through

Speaker:

like what that experience is like or sharing some of the like fun 900 screen

Speaker:

captures that I got of Doc looking down.

Speaker:

All of those would be great repurposed content, even though none of that

Speaker:

was in the actual podcast episode.

Speaker:

But it's just enough that people that are seeing it are like, Oh,

Speaker:

I've always wondered how to do that.

Speaker:

And we're not even talking about that today, remote production.

Speaker:

But we will, in an upcoming episode, we might catch some people that'll

Speaker:

come over and check it out here on YouTube or wanna listen to the

Speaker:

podcast on the podcast platform.

Speaker:

So another good thing to keep in mind is that, Repurposing doesn't

Speaker:

always mean I put the same piece of content in multiple places.

Speaker:

It means really thinking about your content as having an A to Z life and

Speaker:

how can you build those little pieces of content alongside your main piece that

Speaker:

catches attention and pulls people in.

Speaker:

That makes sense.

Speaker:

Okay, so this kind of funny, because you somewhat alluded to our second

Speaker:

point, so let's drop the second point.

Speaker:

And Katie, you read this one,

Speaker:

what are your top repurposing tips?

Speaker:

You covered one of my first ones, and I'm sorry, repurposing tip,

Speaker:

but you did it accidentally without knowing it, and I think this is a

Speaker:

very important, so I wanna make sure that we illuminate this perfectly.

Speaker:

Every platform is different.

Speaker:

Let me reiterate that from the people at home who are like, They didn't hear

Speaker:

me the first time, but just in case.

Speaker:

Every platform is different.

Speaker:

Do not take something that you made for TikTok and pick it up and drop

Speaker:

it on IG and then pick it up and drop it on YouTube and then pick

Speaker:

it up and drop it on LinkedIn.

Speaker:

They all perform slightly differently.

Speaker:

You can lead into head and tail a clip.

Speaker:

So what do I mean by head tail a clip?

Speaker:

Say you have a clip right here where you say, And this is the most valuable

Speaker:

piece of information that you're ever going to get from our particular podcast.

Speaker:

You can take that.

Speaker:

And in front of it, you could say, From this week's episode, I had a

Speaker:

chance to interview Jared Spink.

Speaker:

And this is something I think you should hear.

Speaker:

Insert the clip and it'd be like at the end go.

Speaker:

If you wanna see more, make sure you drop off.

Speaker:

Whatever that works really well on on like LinkedIn, that will

Speaker:

not work really well on IG.

Speaker:

You see what I mean?

Speaker:

LinkedIn, people are ready for the direction they are.

Speaker:

Ready for the, Tell me where to go.

Speaker:

Tell me where to go.

Speaker:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker:

yeah, Yeah, exactly.

Speaker:

Or that clip may link into a quote, that brilliance that

Speaker:

Jared gave during the interview.

Speaker:

That could either be a graphic and not have any video or text behind it

Speaker:

and point back to the full episode, or could be a video clip of him saying

Speaker:

something brilliant that has burned on captions on it so people can read

Speaker:

it if they're scrolling through.

Speaker:

Yeah, a hundred percent.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

And like for instance, your own homemade captions in your favorite program,

Speaker:

they work really well in many places, but I'm gonna tell you right now on IG

Speaker:

use the built-in IG captioner, they.

Speaker:

For whatever reason, cuz it's their house happen to give you little bit

Speaker:

more love on the algo if you use their built in caption versus make your own.

Speaker:

I like to make my own.

Speaker:

I think they look cool and I think it just adds a different visual spot that

Speaker:

might grab someone's eyes organically.

Speaker:

But if you're an algo tweaker, then you might want to use

Speaker:

the built-in one from IG.

Speaker:

Now what I often do is export the built-in one from IG and I'll put it somewhere

Speaker:

else just because it looks different and it catches an eye, you know, and that

Speaker:

may or may not, you know, do very well on YouTube, but you gotta make sure that you

Speaker:

do it before you get the burned IG logo.

Speaker:

Do not post videos of another logo on another thing.

Speaker:

So do not roll up into the Pepsi factory with a Coke in your

Speaker:

hand, decked out in Coke gear.

Speaker:

Yeah, it's super silly and I don't know why everyone does that.

Speaker:

And I guess the part that tempts you to do that is you see videos and

Speaker:

things with millions of views on.

Speaker:

That have, you know, the TikTok logo and stuff that those mostly were

Speaker:

created before the platforms are decided that they were gonna go out

Speaker:

of their way to block this stuff.

Speaker:

So there's tools out there to help you if you forget to pull down

Speaker:

a clean copy before you post it, there's tools out there that will

Speaker:

help you get it without the watermark.

Speaker:

But every platform is a little different.

Speaker:

They have a different culture, so produced for the right platform.

Speaker:

It's just so much.

Speaker:

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker:

And just because you see it working doesn't mean that it's the right thing

Speaker:

to do or that it's gonna work for you.

Speaker:

So, you know, there's a lot of content out there that that is working.

Speaker:

And it might just be that that person has a much bigger platform than

Speaker:

you do, or they got in before there were algorithm updates or changes.

Speaker:

You know, or they've paid for it.

Speaker:

Like who knows what kinds of things they're doing or

Speaker:

what rules they're breaking.

Speaker:

It doesn't mean it's the right thing.

Speaker:

So get to know the platforms I think is a hugely important tip and something that

Speaker:

is gonna be helpful regardless of whether you're a podcaster or just creating

Speaker:

content for a business or for yourself.

Speaker:

They are really different and they need to be treated differently.

Speaker:

Well, you also, I think the big takeaway there from something you just said

Speaker:

is you gotta define what is working.

Speaker:

A bunch of vanity views that don't amount to anything doesn't

Speaker:

necessarily mean it's working.

Speaker:

And of course this has been reiterated a lot, but famously one of the top,

Speaker:

you know, TikTok creators thought she could hold an event cause she

Speaker:

got millions of people on TikTok and nobody came and it's not the same.

Speaker:

Like it's a whole different ball of wax.

Speaker:

You know what's funny is this existed long before TikTok.

Speaker:

So there was a nightclub here that a partner of mine, James and I, we

Speaker:

used to bring in like 2000 people every Friday and Saturday night

Speaker:

for like three years solid, right?

Speaker:

And the management decided one day that they wanted to be cocky and someone told

Speaker:

them that they could make more money.

Speaker:

Now that the party is established, they can bring in a lesser DJ.

Speaker:

I can say that cockily and continue to do the party without us because

Speaker:

everyone coming to their club.

Speaker:

Not that everybody was coming to their club because of us.

Speaker:

In their head, because, well, they paid the mortgage, everybody was

Speaker:

coming to their club because of them, so they basically gave us an

Speaker:

ultimatum and we didn't like it.

Speaker:

So we quit.

Speaker:

And they thought their party was gonna rock.

Speaker:

On the very next weekend, they were listening to Crickets Rubbing

Speaker:

and they were like, How in the exact heck did that happen?

Speaker:

You know?

Speaker:

And the fun part of it is moments later we realized that we go to a

Speaker:

place, we take the party to them and we don't actually work like as

Speaker:

employees for a club ever again.

Speaker:

We just basically carried the party around and it's funny.

Speaker:

It goes to show you that it is not often what you think when you see

Speaker:

the success that you see the success.

Speaker:

So don't be stuck in the vanity side of it cuz it can completely

Speaker:

bite you in the O colay or the butt.

Speaker:

And I'm pretty sure if DJ Rob is here, he has been through a similar

Speaker:

experience cuz every club owner tries it.

Speaker:

Every club owner tries it and DJ Rob is a big time headliner in Vegas,

Speaker:

so I'm sure he's been through it.

Speaker:

So yeah, that's just a thing.

Speaker:

And remember that each platform is different.

Speaker:

Your culture's different.

Speaker:

You really don't understand how people connect with you unless you bother to ask.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

And I would say, too, to know what your, I mean, and this is true, we're outside

Speaker:

of podcasting as well, but really have a good understanding of what your goals are.

Speaker:

And are those goals, actually ones that are benefiting your business.

Speaker:

And do you have too many?

Speaker:

You know, I am have been in the past notorious for this.

Speaker:

Having like 10 goals is not going to work.

Speaker:

Have one goal, have one goal, and then when you hit it,

Speaker:

great, go to the next goal.

Speaker:

Have two at a at an absolute max, but 10 different goals

Speaker:

isn't gonna get there for you.

Speaker:

And the similar thing, you know, when we're talking about repurposing.

Speaker:

There's a lot.

Speaker:

As we just said, there's a ton of different kinds of

Speaker:

content that you can create.

Speaker:

That doesn't mean that you need to start with all of that.

Speaker:

That doesn't mean that you can't add those things on as you build out your

Speaker:

team or get into a really good workflow.

Speaker:

All of this is liquid.

Speaker:

All of this is malleable.

Speaker:

You can make any changes along the way.

Speaker:

So I would say, If you were able to just get started, get to your number

Speaker:

seven podcast, see how things are going, then set the next goal or

Speaker:

the goal, and then think through how you wanna approach your repurposing.

Speaker:

You know, maybe it's just for the first seven episodes, you're just gonna

Speaker:

get out to those podcast platforms, you're just gonna get audio out.

Speaker:

Great.

Speaker:

And then on episode eight, you're like, Hey, now we're gonna open it up

Speaker:

to a live studio audience and we're gonna have video and audio available.

Speaker:

Awesome.

Speaker:

Do that for a little bit.

Speaker:

When that's working and you're in that really great state and you're able to do

Speaker:

that consistently, then think through how you're gonna approach adding social clips

Speaker:

or a blog post or whatever else it is.

Speaker:

It's okay to walk before you run.

Speaker:

It's okay to crawl before you walk.

Speaker:

You don't need to do all of it just because someone like us has told you

Speaker:

that there's 26 pieces of content and you have to be doing all of them.

Speaker:

You don't have to be doing all of them.

Speaker:

You can intentionally never do all of them.

Speaker:

Like you could intentionally only ever do an audio podcast or a video podcast

Speaker:

or just have two things or three things.

Speaker:

That's okay, too.

Speaker:

It's really about being consistent with it and taking your time to really build it.

Speaker:

Correct.

Speaker:

Correct.

Speaker:

That's super valuable.

Speaker:

And then I guess the last thing that I would want to ask is do you have

Speaker:

any particular tips that is like your go to when it comes to repurposing?

Speaker:

I think we've covered most of them.

Speaker:

I would just double down again and say that I, Marshall and I are the absolute

Speaker:

worst for doing the absolute most, which is now my favorite saying that he's

Speaker:

been saying during Marshall Creates.

Speaker:

But I am absolutely guilty of this.

Speaker:

He is better with the details than I am, but I'm always the person that's

Speaker:

like, you know, I think I have time and I think we can, we can do more of.

Speaker:

Get it right first.

Speaker:

Don't get it right just for a couple of weeks.

Speaker:

Get it right for a good couple of months so you really, really feel solid.

Speaker:

And then bring on that awesome new idea and then bring on that great new

Speaker:

tool and then bring, you know, add on that extra piece of repurposing.

Speaker:

But really, give yourself a little bit of breathing space.

Speaker:

Give yourself some room.

Speaker:

I know my whole team is laughing at me.

Speaker:

I'm sure Caleb was like, eye roll, but

Speaker:

But seriously, I, as someone who's not good at this, let me preach it to myself

Speaker:

as well as to all of you out there that give yourself some breathing space.

Speaker:

To get it to where it's beyond where you want it to be.

Speaker:

Like it's so solid that you really feel confident.

Speaker:

And then think through how you're gonna take it to that next level.

Speaker:

Cuz it, you don't have to do the most, you don't have to do all of it, you

Speaker:

just have to show up consistently.

Speaker:

That's the base level is showing up consistently.

Speaker:

And then you can think through all of this content repurposing and how you're gonna

Speaker:

approach everything else step by step.

Speaker:

See that's perfect.

Speaker:

Test pass, test pass, test pass, test pass like 20 times.

Speaker:

One of us is married to an engineer.

Speaker:

Exactly.

Speaker:

And there's a reason why I'm married to an engineer because I am definitely not

Speaker:

that I am the person that's like, Oh, shiny or I, I think I have tons of time.

Speaker:

And you know what?

Speaker:

I do have tons of time until I say yes to absolutely everything.

Speaker:

And even then, I probably can still pull it off until there's a wrench that gets

Speaker:

thrown in, which happens to us all, right?

Speaker:

So just because you can hold 19 things doesn't mean that there's not gonna

Speaker:

be like a dog that's gonna run at your feet and knock you to the ground.

Speaker:

Doesn't matter how many things you are holding, you're going down.

Speaker:

So it's better to, you know, it's better to take it slow.

Speaker:

We find out firsthand when you test your abilities against Massachusetts traffic.

Speaker:

Exactly right.

Speaker:

We'll leave it at that.

Speaker:

Okay, so let's get to the last point.

Speaker:

This is good.

Speaker:

I like this.

Speaker:

All right.

Speaker:

How do you create an efficient content repurposing workflow for your podcast?

Speaker:

You know, I think you just kind of covered it.

Speaker:

I was gonna say, I think we covered it, but let's, We'll break it down again.

Speaker:

Start with one.

Speaker:

Get really good at it over the course of, say, 6, 7, 8, maybe 10 episodes.

Speaker:

And then add another, and then add another, and then add another, again,

Speaker:

each time letting it rock the litmus test of how well you can get that flow out.

Speaker:

So I believe what you just stated is one way.

Speaker:

I think another way, and this is something that Michelle from LBC

Speaker:

branding is extremely good at is creating a flow board, as you will.

Speaker:

She uses a template.

Speaker:

Yeah, you could do it with Notion, whatever.

Speaker:

You could use Apple Notes.

Speaker:

Make yourself a list, sort of like we did for the new Flow Show flow.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

A checklist.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Make the checklist and go down that sucker, right?

Speaker:

Yep.

Speaker:

And you even stated after I made The Flow exactly how I made it, you go,

Speaker:

Hey, but you didn't put into parts about how we gonna repurpose all these clips.

Speaker:

And I was like, Oh yeah, because normally you do that.

Speaker:

So it didn't dawn on me, but as a solo producer, someone's

Speaker:

gonna need to know that as well.

Speaker:

So.

Speaker:

Eventually what we'll want to do is add those to the, to the

Speaker:

show for so everyone can see it.

Speaker:

And then maybe we'll just make it public, you know, Cause nothing to hide,

Speaker:

like you guys can see how we do it.

Speaker:

We sink or swim together.

Speaker:

Take the swear words out the document, you can adjust it to how

Speaker:

it works for you, and you can see.

Speaker:

But you gonna always have to adjust it.

Speaker:

And I think most people misunderstand that, right?

Speaker:

Like in a very weird analogy.

Speaker:

But this is just how analogy worked for me.

Speaker:

If you go to Ramen in Hawaii and you ask for, Okay, I'll get the spicy

Speaker:

miso, they'll be like, What level?

Speaker:

And you be like, What do you mean what level?

Speaker:

Because in Hawaii, spicy miso is gonna come levels one through 10.

Speaker:

And then, And that level's one through 10.

Speaker:

You might think that, Oh, I could just jump in the middle and go to five.

Speaker:

No, by the time you get to five is deadly.

Speaker:

And I am a heat eater, Like I eat heat.

Speaker:

Like really?

Speaker:

But holy crap, I can't imagine the people that can go all the way up to 10.

Speaker:

They are superhuman.

Speaker:

So even with something like that, you need to kind of know where you

Speaker:

are and do start at level one fam.

Speaker:

Like just test it right when the sweat starts to being Luis talked

Speaker:

about it when you get that little sweat pop up, but it doesn't drip.

Speaker:

Do you ever quite hit your limit when you get the next level and the sweat

Speaker:

actually starts to move, that's about a good place to stop cuz everything

Speaker:

after that is gonna cost body pain.

Speaker:

Yeah, and I, that's an amazing analogy because I think mixed in there

Speaker:

as well, is that, Everyone tastes spicy differently and it's okay.

Speaker:

It's not the same as like a pass fail, right?

Speaker:

It's you're not like, If I don't get to level seven, I've failed.

Speaker:

If I don't get to level 10, I'm not perfect.

Speaker:

No, Some people are only ever gonna be a one because that's the

Speaker:

level of spicy that works for them.

Speaker:

Some people are only ever gonna be at four because that's the level

Speaker:

of spicy that works for them.

Speaker:

So you need to figure out what your content repurposing plan is, what

Speaker:

audiences you wanna reach where, what kinds of content you wanna create, what's

Speaker:

within your time and your bandwidth, what you're able to do, how big your team

Speaker:

is, how big you want your team to be.

Speaker:

All of those things are considerations as you're finding

Speaker:

out your content spicy level.

Speaker:

So, you know, mine may only ever be a five and five may be like, amazing.

Speaker:

I'm awesome, this is where I wanna be, and I may have to work my way

Speaker:

from one to five to get there, but I'm not gonna, once I get to five, be

Speaker:

like, Well, crap, I'm not at 10 yet.

Speaker:

I need to work my way up to 10.

Speaker:

10 may never make sense to me.

Speaker:

There is still the planning that goes into it to really think through

Speaker:

what makes the most sense for you, and there's constant evaluation and

Speaker:

tweaking what is working, what is not working, the stuff that's not working.

Speaker:

Get rid of the stuff that's working, double down on as much

Speaker:

as you're able to do within your time limits and times spans.

Speaker:

It's so good.

Speaker:

It's so good.

Speaker:

The last day we spent in New York had the ability to take Luis to eat ramen after

Speaker:

we talked about it for like two weeks.

Speaker:

So jealous.

Speaker:

I didn't get any ramen.

Speaker:

And when Luis took his hat off, you could just see the little dots and I was like,

Speaker:

Oh, you got that perfect spice level.

Speaker:

And he was like, Yeah, when you walk outside, it's cool, right?

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Cause one of the common questions is, it's so hot in Japan and so humid.

Speaker:

Why do people eat ramen in the summer?

Speaker:

For that reason.

Speaker:

If you can get the bead bubble when you walk outside, that cools you down.

Speaker:

So that's why.

Speaker:

But yes, anyway.

Speaker:

I like the idea of testing your spicy level because hey, I know

Speaker:

people who say black pepper is spicy, and I look at them like,

Speaker:

family, What did your mama do to you?

Speaker:

But they know that about themselves, so those people are not gonna,

Speaker:

they're not gonna sit down at the ramen place and order themselves

Speaker:

a level 10 spicy bowl of ramen.

Speaker:

They're like, No, pepper is spicy.

Speaker:

I'm gonna get a non spicy bowl of ramen, and they're gonna be happy with that.

Speaker:

Because they know going in where they're at, and they know where they

Speaker:

wanna push themselves for failure.

Speaker:

Right.

Speaker:

Because you're starting, you're starting even before you get started, you're

Speaker:

giving yourself a reasonable expectation.

Speaker:

And so I would think another important segment of the strategy is give

Speaker:

yourself a reasonable expectation.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

Like don't be unrealistic with your expectations.

Speaker:

I tend to work from no expectations whatsoever, and I adjust by data.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

I know that Katie's not like this.

Speaker:

Cause we had this conversation in the car.

Speaker:

I go by data and results.

Speaker:

Like I don't even, I never expect anything because I hate being disappointed.

Speaker:

It's not a thing.

Speaker:

I blame my birth father for that.

Speaker:

Like, I can't stand disappointment, so I just don't expect anything.

Speaker:

And that way, whatever happens, I can work accordingly.

Speaker:

So I think it's important for you that if you start.

Speaker:

Say, I'm gonna put these out and you know, I'm gonna get 15 new

Speaker:

users, readers, viewers, watchers, whatever this week, and you get two

Speaker:

that you're not, but hurt by that.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

If you go in and say, I'm gonna make this with the intent of growing those two.

Speaker:

Is growth and then you can Hercules.

Speaker:

Hercules, right?

Speaker:

You feel better.

Speaker:

And what, and what made those two come double down on that.

Speaker:

What?

Speaker:

What got those two in the door?

Speaker:

Stop worrying so much about why the other eight didn't show.

Speaker:

Start started thinking through what made it magical for those two.

Speaker:

You won those two over.

Speaker:

Why?

Speaker:

Do more of that.

Speaker:

That's what you need to do more of.

Speaker:

So good.

Speaker:

We got two good ones today.

Speaker:

We got the podcast spicy level.

Speaker:

It's gonna be our new t-shirt, our new t-shirt.

Speaker:

We have all these people asking.

Speaker:

I today I'm wearing my favorite of our t-shirts, which is like our Ecamm vintage

Speaker:

T-shirt and they're on the merch shop.

Speaker:

So everyone here who has been asking, and listeners, if you don't see this

Speaker:

because you're listen you obviously need to be hanging out in our YouTube

Speaker:

studio audience or swing by and grab our replay video cuz that's two

Speaker:

pieces of content that we've created.

Speaker:

But this t-shirt is definitely hands down one of my favorite cuz it's, it's yellow

Speaker:

and it's vintage and it feels super fun.

Speaker:

I'm just only every day living in Ecamm t-shirts because it's really fun to make

Speaker:

them and it's even more fun to wear.

Speaker:

I'm doing it entirely for me, folks.

Speaker:

If you like them, that's great, but I'm in the t-shirt business for me.

Speaker:

I really like the retro T-shirt.

Speaker:

I just looked at this and it gave me an idea.

Speaker:

We need to make the 12 days of Ecamm and I'm gonna be 11

Speaker:

lords of leaping into podcasting

Speaker:

11 lords of leaping into podcasting.

Speaker:

I love it.

Speaker:

Actually, speaking of Leap Into Podcasting, as we're wrapping

Speaker:

here, just a reminder to absolutely everyone listening or watching or

Speaker:

our amazing live studio audience.

Speaker:

We had such a blast at Leap Into Podcasting, so huge thank

Speaker:

you to everyone that signed up or that showed up with us live.

Speaker:

But just because you may have missed it does not mean you've missed it.

Speaker:

We have replay videos available.

Speaker:

We unlocked the portal with all of our replay videos.

Speaker:

This week, yesterday, it's a blur.

Speaker:

It's only Tuesday.

Speaker:

This week is yesterday.

Speaker:

So if you grab a guide, the physical one that Doc is holding up or a digital copy

Speaker:

of the guide, you will get an email from us that gives you a login to our portal.

Speaker:

And the portal includes not just this year's replay videos,

Speaker:

but videos from 2020 and 2021.

Speaker:

So there's over a hundred videos.

Speaker:

Literally every topic in the world of live streaming and podcasting

Speaker:

is covered in these videos.

Speaker:

And you'll get the guides, you'll be able to jot down notes and, you

Speaker:

know, any ideas that you have for your own podcast, you can start

Speaker:

outlining those, using the templates.

Speaker:

So it's a really amazing value at $25 American.

Speaker:

It's not a ton, and it would be really great opportunity.

Speaker:

We'd love for you to dive into that content and then let us know, maybe

Speaker:

there is something that's missing or something you wanna dive deeper on.

Speaker:

Email us flow Ecamm dot com and we'd love to cover that

Speaker:

on an episode of the podcast.

Speaker:

There you go.

Speaker:

There you go.

Speaker:

Man, this is a great episode.

Speaker:

I think it's one of the things that people definitely are starting to

Speaker:

understand is the content repurposing and repurposing podcasts, especially,

Speaker:

I'm even watching some of the bigger podcasts, like do whole entire channels,

Speaker:

just because they have really long shows.

Speaker:

And things like that, so you just never know.

Speaker:

So it's a good time to experiment.

Speaker:

You have a couple of months and for those who haven't started their podcast

Speaker:

yet, I'm telling you, the time is nigh.

Speaker:

You kind of want to get it at least going before the end of the year.

Speaker:

Podcast is just growing and it's going to grow more, so this is a good time

Speaker:

to be in the podcasting business.

Speaker:

Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker:

All right, Doc, where can they find us?

Speaker:

Luis flash our awesome.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

There we go.

Speaker:

Look at that.

Speaker:

We got a producer, Yo.

Speaker:

We're like legit.

Speaker:

Look at that production quality.

Speaker:

Find us anywhere podcast getting is got.

Speaker:

You can get us on the Apple iTune Store or Spotify, Amazon

Speaker:

Music, you know everywhere.

Speaker:

Google, Stitcher, the above.

Speaker:

You can also just go straight to flow dot Ecamm dot com.

Speaker:

That's flow dot Ecamm dot com.

Speaker:

You can also just scan the QR code.

Speaker:

And before we close this out, I want to give you guys a really, really quick

Speaker:

reminder to go and check out Speedify.

Speaker:

You can find them at S P E E D if fy I often say Spotify with

Speaker:

my face, but I know it's Speedify because it will save your bacon.

Speaker:

It works like an absolute champ.

Speaker:

Whenever you are in a situation where you have spotty internet

Speaker:

or you just wanna give yourself a little bit of comfort level.

Speaker:

So two Leaps in the row this year doing Leap, the internet decided to go goofy

Speaker:

because, hey, Massachusetts started gonna feel like Massachusetts hates

Speaker:

us for saying specifically because Amesbury, is the second town ever

Speaker:

invented in the United States of America.

Speaker:

So, When we had a little dipping internet performance speed five was able to keep it

Speaker:

going, and I even sent out tweets it, you know, I got a notification that Speedify

Speaker:

basically saved our bacon like seven or eight times in the middle of day two.

Speaker:

It was really weird.

Speaker:

Something about day two and Leap, we always have some kind

Speaker:

of weird internet thing, so next year Leap is gonna be 15 minutes.

Speaker:

You know what I absolutely love though about it and shout out to our friends

Speaker:

at Speedify for, for having this as like a feature, I guess for lack of a better

Speaker:

word, is that it had this amazing thing.

Speaker:

I think I got a screenshot of it, but it was just like,

Speaker:

Speedify just saved your stream.

Speaker:

It would be this like very reassuring popup where you would be live or

Speaker:

interacting with an audience or speaker on and it would just kind of slide up to

Speaker:

the side like, Don't worry, we got you.

Speaker:

We got this, this slide back down, which is all you want.

Speaker:

You're like, Oh my goodness.

Speaker:

Like things would've gone wrong.

Speaker:

It, you would know this better than me, but it sort of reminds me of like a mom.

Speaker:

When your kid gets about three or four years old and they're constantly running

Speaker:

around, knocking things over and dropping.

Speaker:

But you're catching it before it falls and you just put it up and

Speaker:

kind of smile to the store clerk, like, don't worry, I got it.

Speaker:

Like, you just, mom saved it, but the kid has no clue.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker:

And you're just running, you know, like, Oh, caught this, caught that,

Speaker:

or, you know, So things like that.

Speaker:

That's it.

Speaker:

I think that that Speedify is like, uh, mom walking around

Speaker:

for a toddler for your internet.

Speaker:

There, I said it this first, Alex is gonna go, How do we

Speaker:

work that into our marketing?

Speaker:

You need like a fun like mascot that just like pops up, you know, like,

Speaker:

like a non obnoxious version of like Clippy from Word where it just like

Speaker:

slides in and is like, I got you.

Speaker:

And then like disappears again.

Speaker:

Like so doesn't you have to have words.

Speaker:

It could just be like, Got this.

Speaker:

Got it.

Speaker:

Just, just throw a quick little shock of, Hey boss, it's good.

Speaker:

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker:

No problem.

Speaker:

It was about to go bad, but I got it.

Speaker:

So thank you.

Speaker:

Speedify for just, again, keeping our bacon safe and for helping us with

Speaker:

The Flow by being a great sponsor.

Speaker:

I just gotta say that they tell you in the business always, I've been

Speaker:

at this for a long time, from radio to tv, whatever they tell you in the

Speaker:

business, always you want sponsors for products that you know and love.

Speaker:

This is one of those cases, like, know the program and love the program.

Speaker:

It is a hundred percent amazing.

Speaker:

And yeah, I wish they did have an affiliate program, but I do believe

Speaker:

that the hardest part about that is Alex won't listen to me and triple the price.

Speaker:

Cause it's only like $4.

Speaker:

So if I sign somebody up, they're not gonna me 12.

Speaker:

Like what I'm gonna do?

Speaker:

It's cheap.

Speaker:

Its ridiculously too cheap.

Speaker:

So definitely do it before one day that dude wakes up and goes,

Speaker:

You know what Doc is, right?

Speaker:

Let's raise the price to $12.

Speaker:

That's so true.

Speaker:

All right.
