  1. She Built a Brand World Around Her Podcast AND Hit 20K Subscribers Doing It with By Kayleigh

    She Built a Brand World Around Her Podcast AND Hit 20K Subscribers Doing It with By Kayleigh

    If your podcast isn't growing, the problem probably isn't your content. Kayleigh built 20,000 YouTube subscribers by fixing something most creators never think to look at…their brand world. Kayleigh started as a makeup artist who couldn't get booked during COVID. She launched a podcast to fill the time and 200 episodes later, she's built a YouTube channel with over 20,000 subscribers, a membership community, and a personal branding framework pulled directly from studying celebrities. In this episode, Kayleigh breaks down why the strategy most podcasters use to grow is actually working against them and what the biggest names in pop culture do instead. We chat about:  🎙️ The real reason why copying what's already working is the fastest way to stay invisible 🎙️ What a "brand world" is and how to start building one today 🎙️ The YouTube data that shows exactly what your audience wants to hear… and doesn’t 🎙️ Why your visual is your in-real-life hook and how a mullet booked more jobs 🎙️ What your brand's magic only appears when you stop being who you think you should be You’ll hear:  3:35 - What do you talk about for 200 episodes  and how do you know when it's time to change direction 5:07 - How do you find your identity on a platform where everyone already seems to have it figured out 6:40 - Why your data is the key to unlocking what your audience actually wants to hear 7:37 - The two things that decide whether someone ever watches your video  13:37 - What actually makes a video go viral. And how much of it is really in your control 16:58 - How do you grow two completely different audiences without one destroying the other 24:16 - What is a brand world and how do you know if you're already inside one 35:15 - How do you become the celebrity of your niche without being famous 38:35 - What is an in-real-life hook  and how does a mullet explain everything about personal branding 47:40 - Why having an opinion is the one thing most podcasters are scared to do To see exactly how Kayleigh has built her brand world, you can find her on  Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@by.kayleigh Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/bykayleighpodcast/) And listening her on By Kayleigh Podcast on Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/3Aylj79yaYpG7aOnMUDz0V?si=098cbc7d3c604f92) or Apple (https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/a-podcast-by-kayleigh/id1676257018) Grace Miller Part 1 episode on Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/episode/5VFciIdwvHbMYVJLxa2pg2?si=DwwCvmRLTKaP47LZaHDlgg), Apple (https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/bts-of-diary-of-a-ceo-billions-of-views/id1840086977?i=1000764562578) or Youtube (https://youtu.be/v32vjCgywMw) Grace Miller Part 2 episode on Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/episode/17x2NmcLijtu3RUg8HWexR?si=ssja5DggRx-j81PyVmfSaw), Apple (https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/every-podcast-needs-these-3-things-to-grow-with-grace/id1840086977?i=1000766302898) or Youtube (https://youtu.be/aSoWhoST2dA) Tom Noske episode on Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/episode/6INN0ctde2hED5ASTIc8kw?si=536jpS0iSxO8-ow8naRJzg), Apple (https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/why-most-huge-podcasts-make-no-money-with-tom-noske/id1840086977?i=1000771911372) or Youtube (https://youtu.be/sH7hEyVE-Ww) Have a guest you want to hear from?

  2. Why You Sound Different on Mic Than in Real Life with Voice Coach Sally Prosser

    16 June

    Why You Sound Different on Mic Than in Real Life with Voice Coach Sally Prosser

    Why are there some podcasts you could listen to for hours and others you don’t absorb a single word they say?  Today I'm talking to voice coach, former TV journalist, and author Sally Prosser about the hidden vocal habits that quietly undermine even the most knowledgeable podcasters and content creators. Sally has worked with spokespeople, executives, and creators to help them find and own their unique voiceprint. Not a polished, scripted version of someone else, but a refined, confident version of themselves. We chat about: 🎙️ Why your voice changes the moment the mic goes on (and what to do about it) 🎙️The belief, body, breath framework that shapes your sound before you even speak 🎙️How rising inflection and vocal fry are undermining your credibility without you realising 🎙️The voice warmup every podcaster should be doing before they hit record 🎙️What your voiceprint actually is and how to find yours You’ll hear:  0:00 - Why people lose their voice the moment the mic goes up 9:03 - The voice warmup every podcaster should do before recording 12:10 - The belief, body, breath framework, you need to know 15:54 - What rising inflection is doing to your credibility  34:59 - Why you should never wait until your voice is perfect to start your podcast 38:16 - What vocal fry is and how to stop it 51:57 - The tease and land technique that will improve your interviewing 56:45 - What a voiceprint actually is and the four elements 1:00:00 - The one daily habit you can start today to build your voice Follow Sally over at @sallyprosservoice on Instagram and Sally Prosser on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/sally-prosser/).

  3. Why Most Huge Podcasts Make No Money with Tom Noske

    Why Most Huge Podcasts Make No Money with Tom Noske

    What actually separates the creators who make it from the ones who don't? Tom Noske has been creating content since 2016. He's built a personal brand that opens doors, a community that converts, and a business that doesn't feel like a prison. But it wasn't overnight. It wasn't linear. And it definitely wasn't without moments where he almost walked away for good. In this episode Tom shares the story of a friend who did everything right…right content, right audience, right strategy…went viral on day 21, gained 160,000 followers in a single day, and never recovered. We chat about: 🎙️ Why building an audience and building a business are two completely different things 🎙️ How to set up a studio that looks incredible with what you already have 🎙️ The one pricing decision Tom made mid-launch that changed everything 🎙️ Why your personal brand is a thermostat, not a sales funnel Follow Tom over @tomnoske (https://www.instagram.com/tomnoske/) and join time to build here (https://www.timetobuild.live/)  Have a guest you want to hear from?

  4. 20,000 Followers in 6 Days. What you need to do Before (and After) you go Viral

    2 June

    20,000 Followers in 6 Days. What you need to do Before (and After) you go Viral

    20,000 new followers. Six days. One Instagram post. And the reason it actually worked had nothing to do with the post itself. It worked because she was ready.  Most creators aren’t. They get a viral moment, hundreds of thousands of new eyeballs land on their page but it gets stuck. It doesn’t TRULY go viral and within a week…those people are gone. And it’s because there was nothing there to hold them. I'm breaking down the 3 things you need to do before you go viral so that every single one of those new followers has a reason to stick around and the three things to do after you have that viral moment to bring them into your world. We cover: 🎙️ The three things you need to have in place before you go viral 🎙️ The one mistake people make with their links every time  🎙️ What to post the moment a reel takes off to keep new followers in your world 🎙️ The one simple thing 99% of creators never do that will make people share your podcast with their friends Have a guest you want to hear from?
