    Goodbye Pod Sound School. Hello Content Jefe!

    Goodbye Pod Sound School. Hello Content Jefe!

    We're doing the unthinkable. We're saying goodbye to our beloved podcast. Our baby and the whole reason we started our business. But that's not the end of our podcasting endeavors. We grew out f our podcast the same way our toddler grew out of her baby shoes.   😢. 

    Check out CONTENT JEFE here

    We realized that our thing is not only podcasting. We're full-time content creators and business owners. Also, our skill set has expanded beyond podcasting. We also realize that our audience, students, and our community of podskis are looking for help to reach their next level.  Like us, many of our podkis turned their podcast into a business.

    Whatever their next level means for them. It can be introducing video in their content production,  creating content that helps them generate leads and sales for their business, or how to be in the new emerging social media platforms and features. We want to help with what we know.

    But like I said, this is just the end of a chapter in our lives and the beginning of a new one.  We say goodbye to Pod Sound School Podcast and welcome Content Jefe Podcast by the Pod Sound School.

    Content Jefe is a podcast where we'll share our best skills and tips to have you create content like a jefe (boss). We're always trying new things and testing the boundaries of our creativity so that Content Jefe will have a lot of storytelling and behind the scenes of what we do as a married couple with three kids, content creators, and business owners. 

    We'll archive the Pod Sound School episodes as Season One for you to binge on the great content we've put out over the years. 

    We're so freaking excited about our new podcast. I hope you're too. 

    To all of our podskis and content jefes ❤️

    How to Get Excited About Creating Content Again ( The Thong Test)

    How to Get Excited About Creating Content Again ( The Thong Test)

    Are you feeling uninspired to create lately? Don't beat yourself up. It happens to all of us creators at some point. When we start creating our content, we're filled with fresh ideas,  enthusiasm, and the energy to create. Somewhere along the way, we start losing our drive and get disconnected from our WHY. We have experienced that too.

    In this episode, Veronica shares with you the Sisqo Thong test. A simple question that will diagnose whether you're going through a creative rut or are about to have one. Veronica also shares with you three simple steps to go back to feeling excited about creating again.

    Going Outside - Building your Podcast Brand ( PART THREE)

    Continuing with our three-part series on how to build your podcast brand, this week Veronica and Studio Steve invite you to go outside, yes outside. Have you explored your local scene?! In this episode, you will learn all the potential opportunities waiting for you. Hint: they're literally closer than you think.

    In this episode you will learn:

    ✨ Ideas on how you can start reaching out to local businesses and events to spread the word about your podcast and explore new networking opportunities

    ✨  How you can use SEO to boost your reach and the importance of having a website. A little crash course on SEO.

    Here's the SEO video mentioned in the episode


    ✨  How to get your audience to fall in love with you and your podcast so they'll start recommending your show to other people ( word of mouth) 

    Here is La Tarea ( homework for this episode) 

    1. Google TOPICAL podcasts and local events in your area
      1. Are there any events or locations that you could speak, network, or present at?
      2. Where can you leave a BIZ card or QR CODE?
      3. What other podcasts are being produced in your area?
        1. Can you reach out and cross-promote or cross guest
    2. Choose 5 Target Keywords that you’d like to rank for 
      1. Keywords Everywhere
      2. Answer the Public
      3. Tube Buddy (if you’re on YouTube)
      4. What populates when you search for those keywords
      5. How can you contribute
      6. What happens when you add “your location” to the tail of the keyword?

    This homework is research homework, but you’ll get extra credit if you put the research into action.  Reach out to people, events, fellow podcasters, etc.  Volunteer to be a speaker, presenter, or simply be social and network.

    Get Visual!  Building Your Brand (Part One)

    This is PART ONE of a THREE PART series we’re doing on Building a Podcast Brand.


    Watch the shortened YouTube version of this series HERE!


    So what is a brand?


    It’s not just your identity and how people tell you apart from other podcasts and content.  It’s not just your colors, fonts, and logos.  It’s how you make people feel.  


    Check out this sweet article by Tracy Lloyd the defines what a brand is.

    Emotive Brand Article


    So why should I care?


    Having a strong brand facilitates:


    -Increased discoverability and SEO

    -Strengthened connections through brand associations

    -Accelerated growth

    -A deepened and more visceral experience for you audience


    The FIRST Key Strategy to Build a Podcast Brand and the theme of this episode is:


    GET VISUAL


    Getting visual is a must for building a strong brand.  You’ll want to be intentional about your use of colors:


    Check out this awesome article on 99 Designs all about color:


    Color meanings and the art of using color symbolism, by Anna Lundberg


    Here are some ideas on incorporating graphics and video:


    I don’t want to show my face!


    -Audiograms

    -Animated stock photos and video

    -Canva designs

    -Intriguing text, questions, or polls, quotes from episodes

    -Shareable tips or DIY hacks


    I’m willing to try showing my face!


    -Short format video

    -Rells, tik tok, YT shorts, FB Reels

    -Live video

    -Long format video

    -YT videos, IGTV, Facebook


    Remember to try and tie in your brand into videos and images by incorporating some of these elements into your graphics, photos, and videos:


    -Logos, colors, images, outfits, props, backdrops


    It’s amazing what strong colorful graphics, text, and shapes, complementing your podcast and your video can do to listeners.  Especially as they see these shapes and colors over time.  You become imprinted into their mind.  Like a catchy melody, you get stuck in their head.  


    YOUR HOMEWORK


    1- Define your core values and mission, see if you can choose a few words, and then assign colors to those words


    2- Research and survey color meanings 


    3- Download Canva


    4- Share your brand with us
