    Before You Automate: Get to the Print Money Stage

    Automation sounds like the solution to everything, but for many consultants and strategists, it actually creates more chaos. In this episode of Systems Saved Me, Blessing Richardson returns to explain why automation often falls apart, when it does make sense, and how to know what stage of business you’re really in. Blessing breaks down the difference between systemizing and automating, introduces the “print money” stage, and explains why most businesses aren’t there yet and why that’s okay. She also walks through the three layers of AI support in a business: AI teammates, client coaches, and full-scale AI products, helping you understand what to build now versus later. If you’ve been duct-taping automations onto a business that’s still evolving, this episode will help you slow down, build capacity first, and create systems that actually grow with you.

    The System Shift That Happens When Your Business Stops Living in Your Head

    In this episode of Systems Saved Me, Blessing Richardson takes over the mic to break down why most business owners are asking the wrong questions about AI. Instead of chasing the “best” tool, Blessing explains why proximity beats power and how AI works best when it lives inside your existing systems. She walks listeners through how to identify where their real work actually happens, why missed follow-ups and lost ideas are system problems (not discipline issues), and how to prepare your business for automation with her Same Simple Stick framework. If AI has felt more chaotic than helpful, this episode will help you build a true second brain starting with your systems, not more tools.

    2026 Business Predictions (Part 5 of 5): 10 Hot Takes I’m Buying or Selling

    This is Part 5 — and the final episode — of my 2026 Business Predictions Series. To wrap things up, I’m doing something a little different. In this episode, I’m reacting to 10 popular predictions for 2026 and telling you whether I’d buy the stock, sell the stock, or watch from the sidelines — based on what I’m seeing in real life, in business, and on the internet. Some of these I agree with. Some I strongly disagree with. And a few… I’m conflicted. This episode is intentionally light, opinionated, and meant to spark conversation, not declare universal truth. It also brings the entire predictions series together and sets the stage for what’s next on the Systems Saved Me podcast. 👉 If you agree, disagree, or want to debate: come DM me on Instagram @systemssavedme. This is my Super Bowl. And if you’re new here: I’m officially back on the mic, and there’s a lot more coming.

    2026 Business Predictions (Part 4 of 5): Search and Social Are Merging

    This is Part 4 of a 5-part series on my biggest business predictions for 2026. In this episode, I’m diving into something I’m personally very excited about and actively testing: 👉 The merger of search and social. For most of my 10 years in business, I didn’t intentionally focus on SEO or search. But that’s changing fast because platforms like Instagram are no longer just for scrolling. They’re becoming searchable, indexable, and discoverable. And that changes everything. In this episode, I share: Why social platforms are becoming search enginesHow Instagram content is now being indexed by Google and AIWhat it means to be findable (not just visible) in 2026How I tested search indexing and saw results in under 90 daysWhy content now has a longer shelf life (even months later)How training your Instagram algorithm gives you the playbookWhy language, topics, and tags matter more than everHow paid, organic, and search are starting to work together If you’ve ever felt frustrated by the “post → spike → disappear” cycle of social media, this episode will completely reframe how you think about content creation moving forward. In 2026, the goal isn’t just reach. It’s lasting discoverability. This is Part 4 of 5. The final episode in this predictions series drops next — and it ties everything together. 👉 Come DM me on Instagram @systemssavedme and tell me: Does this make you excited… or overwhelmed?

    2026 Business Predictions (Part 3 of 5): Why Two-Fer Positioning Wins

    This is Part 3 of a 5-part series on my biggest business predictions for 2026. In this episode, we’re talking about positioning and what I believe will be the clearest way to stand out next year: 👉 Create a Two-Fer. In 2026, the businesses that cut through the noise won’t be louder. They’ll be more interesting. I break down why pairing two unexpected ideas, formats, or outcomes (what I call a Two-Fer) creates instant intrigue, clarity, and memorability. This isn’t about being gimmicky. It’s about smart positioning that makes people lean in and say, “Wait… what?” In this episode, I cover: What a Two-Fer is and why it works so well in positioningReal examples of weird-but-brilliant combinations (and why they convert)How changing format, location, or delivery can refresh any offerHow I positioned Borrow My Podcast as a Two-Fer and why it workedWhy “normal” services and offers are harder to sell in 2026How to build Two-Fers into services, programs, content, and collaborationsSimple prompts to help you find your own Two-Fer positioning If your offer feels solid but invisible or if your messaging sounds like everyone else’s, this episode will help you rethink how you’re presenting what you already do. This is Part 3 of 5. The series continues with more predictions on what will actually work in online business and marketing in 2026. 👉 Come DM me on Instagram @systemssavedme and tell me: What’s the weird combo you can’t stop thinking about?

    2026 Business Predictions (Part 2 of 5): Document Over Degrees

    This is Part 2 of a 5-part series on my biggest business predictions for 2026. In this episode, I’m sharing what may be my most controversial prediction of the series: 👉 In 2026, documentation may outperform degrees. I believe relatability, transparency, and real-time experimentation are becoming more powerful trust signals than credentials, certifications, or distinctions especially in online business, marketing, and creator-led education. This doesn’t mean degrees don’t matter. It means how you position your authority matters more than ever. In this episode, I break down: Why audiences are less impressed by degrees and resumesHow “recent, relevant, and real” is replacing polished expertiseWhy documenting your process builds faster trust than claiming authorityThe difference between expertise and positioning (and why people confuse the two)How creators are growing audiences by learning publiclyWhy relying on past credentials can actually hurt your message in 2026When degrees still matter and when they absolutely don’t If your marketing leans heavily on credentials, titles, or past achievements, this episode may feel uncomfortable. That’s intentional. Because positioning in 2026 won’t be about who knows the most. It will be about who people trust to walk with them. This is Part 2 of 5. In the next episode, I break down what I believe is the winning positioning combo for 2026 and how to stop making your messaging harder than it needs to be. 👉 DM me on Instagram @systemssavedme and tell me: Do you agree… or does this feel like a stretch?

    2026 Business Predictions (Part 1 of 5): The Contributor & Correspondent Collab Era

    This is Part 1 of a 5-part series on what I believe will shape online business in 2026. After completing 58 collaborations in 2025, speaking at events, and being deep in conversations with business owners behind the scenes, one pattern is impossible to ignore: We’re entering the Contributor & Correspondent Era of collabs. In this episode, I break down why one-off collaborations are going to slow down a bit and why recurring collaborators inside newsletters, podcasts, and content ecosystems are becoming the real growth lever. Instead of constant new guest swaps, summits, or short-term promos, creators are building trusted “casts” of experts who show up consistently and serve their audience together. In this episode, you’ll hear: Why recurring collaborators outperform one-time collabsHow podcasts and newsletters are quietly shifting to a “cast” modelThe difference between sponsors vs contributors (and why it matters)Why service providers are uniquely positioned to win in this eraReal examples of this working in podcasts and email marketingHow burnout, capacity, and predictability are reshaping collaboration strategy This episode sets the foundation for the rest of the series and explains why collaboration itself is changing, not disappearing. This is Part 1 of 5. Tomorrow’s episode dives into what may be my most controversial prediction for 2026. 👉 DM me on Instagram @systemssavedme and tell me: Are you seeing this shift too or something different?
