    78. It's Time to Ditch Your Website's Email Marketing Add-On: Why Small Businesses Should Choose a Dedicated Email Marketing Platform

    If you’re using your website’s built-in email platform, this episode is a must-listen. While it may seem like a cost effective option, the truth is these tools often come with significant limitations that can hold your business back as it grows. Eventually, you should outgrow the basics, and in this episode, we’ll break down exactly why that is—and how to know when it’s time to upgrade. Website email tools are marketed as convenient add-ons, but here’s the reality: email marketing isn’t their primary focus. These platforms don’t get the updates, features, or attention that a dedicated email marketing platform offers. From limited design options to lackluster automations, and insights that don’t give you the data you need, these tools are more of a stepping stone than a long-term solution. We’re diving deep into: • Why website platforms treat email marketing as an afterthought • The red flags that tell you it’s time to move on • How limited automations and analytics can impact your business • What to look for in a dedicated email platform Plus, I’ll share actionable advice for making the transition to an email platform that grows with your business, including a checklist to get you started. If you’re serious about building a powerful email marketing strategy, this episode will help you spot the gaps in your current system and make the changes needed to take your emails—and your business—to the next level.

    76. Fake It Until You Make It: Why ‘Pretending’ Can Be Your Best Tool for Real Growth

    Are you ready to become the person you want to be? In this episode of Go Get Great, we’re diving into the surprising power of “pretending” as a tool for real transformation. We often think of pretending as something children do—especially around Halloween when they dress up as superheroes, princesses, or mythical creatures. But what if I told you that pretending isn’t just for kids? It’s actually one of the most powerful ways adults can manifest real change in their lives. When we "pretend" to be healthier, more organized, or more confident, we’re not being fake; we’re actively working toward becoming those things. In today’s episode, I share insights into why pretending to be someone you’re not (yet!) is a stepping stone to becoming exactly that. Think of it as a bridge between where you are now and the future version of yourself that you dream of being. Whether it’s waking up at 5 a.m. to finally become a “morning person,” choosing healthier foods to embody a fit lifestyle, or building small habits that eventually shift your mindset—these are all ways of “pretending” until you’ve made it reality. The journey to becoming your best self doesn’t happen overnight, and it’s not about faking it either. It’s about embracing the actions and habits that align with the life you’re working towards. So grab your earbuds and let’s talk about why pretending is a powerful part of personal growth and how you can use it to your advantage.   Come say hi! https://www.instagram.com/brittanymillersocials/ https://www.brittanymillersocials.ca/ Ready to level up your life and business taking it from good to great?

    75. Finding Fulfillment in a Hobby Podcast with Leith McKay

    Ever wondered what it’s really like to start and grow a podcast as a passion project? This week on Go Get Great, I’m joined by Leith, the host of the Finding Me Podcast, who’s here to share her unique journey and lessons learned from launching a hobby podcast. If you've been dreaming about starting a podcast but aren't sure where to begin—or if it's even worth the effort—this episode is for you! Leith started Finding Me Podcast out of a simple desire to share stories, insights, and inspirations, and she’s here to break down the realities of running a podcast without the pressure of monetizing or “making it big.” We dive into the heart of why she started her show, how much time she invests into creating each episode, and the unexpected ways her podcast has evolved over time. Leith opens up about the challenges, the highlights, and how she balances it all with his everyday life. One of my favorite parts? Hearing Leith’s thoughts on whether she’ll ever turn his passion project into a profit-generating venture. Her take on podcasting as a fulfilling hobby rather than a business hustle is refreshing, and she offers practical advice for anyone considering taking that first step into the podcasting world. Plus, she gives invaluable tips for staying consistent and true to your message—even when life gets busy. And if you’re worried about the technical side, we’ve got you covered! Leith shares some of the tools she uses, like Audacity, and we chat about the learning curves that come with mastering podcast production. This episode is packed with inspiration and insights that will make you excited to hit record and start your own journey.   Go Get Great Episode 75 References Podcast Editing in Audactiy Tutorial https://youtu.be/GPX_WySAIS0?feature=shared   Meet Leith www.leithmckay.com https://www.instagram.com/findingmepodcast/ https://open.spotify.com/show/5a6sg2T7i7SC6uMJ5uoIzD https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/finding-me-podcast/id1465062972   Come say hi! 👉 @brittanymillersocials 👉 BrittanyMillerSocials.ca Ready to level up your life and business, taking it from good to great?
