KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The Disruptive Entrepreneur (now rebranded to Disruptors) was the first of Progressive Media’s to launch 8 years ago and now has almost 1000 episodes.
• Build a "specific but vague" niche to maximise reach - business, money, and entrepreneurship is broad but still clear.
• Create in your authentic format e.g. long-form interviews for Rob. Short-form doesn't always suit creators. Repurpose one piece of content into 50.
• View podcasting as a commercial business. Reinvest revenue into better guests and production. You need to invest to grow.
• Avoid overcomplicating tech and production as a beginner. iPhone + consistency beats fancy gear!
• Interview skills are critical. Research helps but stay present and let conversations flow. Interviewing takes practice and you will get better with time.
• Go broader once you've built an audience and identity. Rob went from Disruptive Entrepreneur which was more specific to then Disruptors which interviews a wider range of guests.
• Handwritten letters stand out to get guests attention. Wax seals also help, you can outsource the writing.
• Controversial guests like Andrew Tate bring huge but fleeting blows up. Lasting impact depends on authenticity.
• Don't overcomplicate funnels, CRMs etc when starting out. Bang out content and drive people to simple sales funnels.

BEST MOMENTS

“Really, all I should think about is the impact I have on people."

"So many people right now are overwhelmed. It's just a massive confusion. There's so much opportunity but so much confusion."

"This morning...I felt grey and fuzzy and bleh. But I got in the garden and I did a pretty hard workout. And then I got in the ice bath... And I thought, fucking hell, my brain is not really on it."

"Go live for three minutes, five minutes, ten minutes and then fairly easy...you can chuck that content there and they can do four or five clips from that."

"Sometimes I think if I'd have stayed Disruptive Entrepreneur and just interviewed millionaires and billionaires, you know, maybe I might be more successful."

"People way overcomplicate everything. Get a good agency...be more prolific with your content...and the money will start to go up."

"I know for a fact he pays guests big money. I know this for a fact...He and others have made it harder to get guests because they're chucking big money down."

"I like the fact that you call it a commercial business because I don't think a lot of creators do."

You've applied for the job, you've done the interview, and then been told that you're "overqualified" or "too senior". The truth is, this feedback can often be misinterpreted. 

In this week’s episode, Sarah and Emma go over some of the reasons why you might be getting this feedback, what to do if it ever happens to you - plus a few tips on how to improve your chances of getting hired if you DO want a role at that level.

🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Elizabeth who bought us 3 coffees! “Listened to your pod as I was gearing up to leave my receptionist job and landed a job recruiting participants for clinical studies. I have always loved research and it's so nice to be doing something interesting and meaningful, and with a very cool small company where my creativity is valued, and with the most hardworking yet fun coworkers. I still listen to you of course because the tips are always interesting, I love the banter, and you keep me with it (quiet quitting and other trends haha). Thank you so much, keep up the great work <3” Congratulations and thank you so much Elizabeth

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

• The podcast has come a long way in six years, from beginning with a basic microphone in a small room to a fully equipped multi-platform studio!
• Developing a podcast and brand takes time, what Rob and his team has learnt in six years has been invaluable. They know what engages people and what content works best for Rob.
• Changing the brand frees Rob up to move away from just the business and entrepreneur theme and allows him to explore a lot more diverse themes, content and guests.
• There are a lot of guests who wouldn’t see themselves as a Disruptive Entrepreneur but would see themselves as a ‘Disruptor’ which meant they would turn interviews with Rob down. The label of Disruptor is much broader and gives more scope on who to interview for the podcast.
• The change in brand allows it to be more reactive and therefore increases the ability to go viral which is so important in today’s world of branding.
• Running a podcast is never plain sailing. The challenges and difficulties are part of the course and you must push through them to find true success. Rob and his team have all had their fair shares of worst moments but thankfully all their best moments more than make up for it and that’s just one of the exciting parts of building a brand.
• The internet and social media used to be more like the wild west, until what many called the ‘ad-pocolypse” many platforms are now very strict on the content they allow to be hosted/shown and TDE has had multiple bans as part of this.
• It’s important for Rob to get guests he doesn’t agree with. It creates great discussion and more engaging and interesting content. This is part of the TDE brand he has built and changing it to ‘Disruptors’ just allows more freedom to do this.
•  Rob and his team have always tried to ask their guests different questions, to stop them being bored of being asked all the same things and to create unique content.
• Interviewing people is hard. Rob had a wealth of experience with public speaking but this couldn’t be any further removed than interviewing skills. Rob has now had six years of practice and conscious mastery and now his technique is so much better than when he started.
• Many brands are scared of cancel culture. Rob isn't frightened of cancel culture but he is concerned about de-platforming.

BEST MOMENTS 

 “Now was the right time to do it, six years of the podcast. It frees us up to make better content without the need to always think about how we bring it back to business”

“It’s a bigger wider brand than it has ever been and it makes everything more tangible”

“For many years, social media was the wild west”

“Pablo Escobar, let’s be honest at that moment we were just like, let’s f**k our own concept”

“Sometimes when they are left leaving more that’s good”

“The interviewee should be talking 95% of the time…to get the most out of the guest”
