    #310 Make pottery that represents yourself

    #310 Make pottery that represents yourself

    Have you ever held a piece of pottery and felt a connection to the artist? That’s the power of infusing your own identity into your craft, a concept I'm passionate about and explore in our latest chat. In this discussion, I delve into the importance of authenticity in pottery, underscoring the necessity for potters to craft works that are a true reflection of their inner selves. By doing so, not only does the art become more meaningful, but it also establishes a deeper connection with those who experience it. I share insights into how personal representation in art transforms both the creator's experience and the audience's engagement.

    The Questions we ask will determine how our pottery will look like that's why I created a Free 15 questions to help you discover your voice template go grab it here www.shapingyourpottery.com/questions

    Episode 48 The Secret Ingredient to Spark Sales

    Episode 48 The Secret Ingredient to Spark Sales

    Stories have a lot to tell, and your marketing is a series of stories you tell your audience about your brand. And what eventually leads to sales are the stories you share that make them relate and resonate with your product and service. 

    And what are the stories you need to tell? First off, have your signature story that you have to share every time you have an event or talk with anyone. Instead of talking to them about technical terms, it is best to let them know what you do and what transformation is achieved once they experience the product or service. There are a lot more stories you can weave in from there. Stories of your own customers' transformation - the before, during, and after can be one - this addresses their fears of trying the service. It gives them the feeling they are not the only ones having the problem. That there is a solution to their problem. Those testimonials you collect from those who have tried your services and product - they matter too. That adds credibility to your service. And that is important to your target audience that they see your service works for other people, which means creates the reassurance in their minds that it will also work for them. Tell them your own stories of being a mom, experiences where you and your audience can get insights from, your struggles and successes in your personal and professional life. All these things are significant inspirations for your stories. 

    Creating stories is one thing, and making an impact with your story is another thing. That is why we need to talk about the key ingredients in crafting stories that connect with your audience. Let your story have a hook that brings in the curiosity that will get them more engaged with your story. Second is, let it speak to their problem and the solution. It would be best if you zeroed in on the challenges and struggles they are experiencing, the transformation they want, and then provide them the opportunity to overcome it; this is where your services come in. 

    After connecting with them on an emotional and logical level, you need to show them that you are the authority, back your claims with proof. The bigger the promise of transformation, the more significant the proof is required. People need to find out that what you are communicating is true.

    Stories indeed have the power to captivate and convince your audience of themselves about your service. They are not there to entertain but rather serve its purpose of not only telling but selling, and in effect, serving.

    Episode 260 - Ways To Captivate and Influence Your Audience - Keys to Having Presence #1

    Episode 260 - Ways To Captivate and Influence Your Audience - Keys to Having Presence #1

    Do you have Presence?  Are you able captivate your audience or prospect?  You can tell when you meet a charismatic personal and when they enter a room.  People are drawn to them because deep down people want to be passionate about something and when they see that passion in your eyes, you become more charismatic.  They sense that you can help them and improve their lives.  This does not guarantee everyone will like you, but they will respect you for your conviction and your passion. 

    Passion is very contagious.  When you transfer this passion, the people around you start to radiate that passion.  They perform better, if it is at work, it is no longer work.  They become more proactive, more willing to work as a team and become more optimistic.  When you have tapped into this passion you become more determined and it increases your persistence.  It starts to become a burning desire and consumes you and it radiates to others. 

    How Mental Rehearsal Preps Us For Action

     A word of caution, just because you are passionate does not mean you can forego learning the skills you need to be successful.  It is a critical piece of the charisma pie, but you still need more pieces of the pie to radiate powerful long-term charisma.  Can you learn this skill?

    • The dangers of focusing so fully on expressing yourself with one component of communication that you neglect the others.
    • The two metrics of essential nonverbal communication: confidence and engagement.
    • Power posing and movement, and how to use our hands and eyes to engage.

    A Moratorium on "Clant Plosings" -Geoff & Jeffrey #12

    A Moratorium on "Clant Plosings"  -Geoff & Jeffrey #12

    Greetings! Welcome to the Holbrook New Media Audio Feed.

    We do audio, video, content creation, and that other stuff. holbrooknewmedia.com.

     

    Today on Episode 12 of The Geoff & Jeffrey show, here are some of the things we are talking about:

    Geoff faked out Jeffrey with a plane crash photo from Universal Studios War of the Worlds exhibit.


    A comparison of celsius in Australia and fahrenheit in the U.S.. http://www.rapidtables.com/convert/temperature/how-celsius-to-fahrenheit.htm


    Geoff's using a more simple setup, and Jeffrey is sporting some new sound treatment.


    Jeffrey's older brother loves the show and says he likes it better than Jeffrey's earlier podcasting efforts.


    Younger people seem to interpret podcasting as the free exchange of ideas in conversation, not a scripted thing like public radio.


    Geoff likes the No Agenda show with John C. Dvorak and Adam Curry. http://www.noagendashow.com/


    High megapixel cameras are really getting up there. The differences in the old film method of photography and the new methods of digital.


    Jeffrey's first 35mm film camera was a used Yashica TL Super. He got it to learn about how aperatures and shutter speeds interacted. http://www.mikeeckman.com/2015/12/quick-review-yashica-tl-super-1966/


    The balance between good composition and just blazing away taking hundreds of images.


    Jeffrey got a taste of the eLearning module work that Geoff usually does by doing a voice over of the announcement of the highlights of the new union contract for the American Postal Workers Union. http://www.apwu133.com/


    Geoff says that it is much easier to do voice over work that you are personally invested in, as opposed to general voice over work.


    Different audio takes seem to have a slightly different sound if you don't do them in one sitting.


    Most union websites have only text and very few do audio.


    No matter what you do, some people will like it, and some will not.


    Adobe Captivate has a good text to speech feature.


    Another Verses In Vox episode was released that Jeffrey did the voice over for. "The Children's Hour" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. holbrooknewmedia.com/verses2


    We explore some features on Blab that Geoff discovered. blab.im


    Comparing Geoff getting into Blab easier directly with a webcam and mic as opposed to using Wirecast.


    Geoff's Rode NTG-2 shotgun mic.


    Track pads, vs trackball mouse, vs conventional mouse.


    Looking around our studios on the video.
