097. Creating Organic Content For Instagram That Connects with Kimberly Espinel17 Jul 202500:49:03

Hey there not-so-average marketers! 

I'm bringing you something special today - a guest interview that I'm genuinely excited about. You know I don't bring guests on very often, but when I do, they have to bring serious value.

Meet Kimberly Espinel, a London-based food photographer, Instagram expert, and author of two books including her latest "How to Make Your Food Famous." Now, you might be thinking "Zach, I don't sell food or do photography" - but here's the thing: some of the best marketing insights come from studying adjacent industries.

In this episode, Kimberly shares data-driven strategies from interviewing 40+ content creators who have 100k+ followers (many with over a million). This isn't the watered-down Instagram advice you see everywhere - this is deep, strategic insight into what actually works.

What we dive into:

  • How often you really need to post for growth (spoiler: it's not daily)
  • The real stats that matter for organic growth beyond likes and views
  • Why your first 3 seconds are make-or-break for any content piece
  • How to analyze your top-performing content and actually replicate it
  • The difference between content that grows followers vs. content that nurtures existing audience
  • Bio optimization that actually converts visitors into followers

I'll be honest - I've paid good money for Instagram courses that didn't give me half the actionable insights Kimberly shares in this conversation. This is the kind of strategic, data-driven approach that actually moves the needle.

Whether you're struggling to break out of "200 view jail" on reels or you're ready to get serious about organic Instagram growth, this episode will give you a completely new framework for approaching the platform.

096. The Myth of Passive Income03 Jul 202500:23:14

I had to address something I keep hearing from clients, students, and potential customers: "I just want it to be more passive."

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what "passive income" really looks like in the online course and membership world. 

Spoiler alert: it's not as passive as you think. I'm breaking down what I call the Four P's of Passive Income:

  • Process: Your sales systems and funnels
  • People: The team you need to make it all work
  • Predictability: How you consistently fill your funnel
  • Persistence: The willingness to keep testing and evolving

I share real numbers from our business - we've have near daily sales this year.

The truth? Passive income is really the result of active engagement, active growth, and active management. You can absolutely build systems that generate revenue while you sleep, but maintaining and growing those systems requires ongoing work.

If you've been chasing the "passive income dream" or wondering why your funnels aren't running themselves, this episode will give you a realistic roadmap for what it actually takes to build sustainable, semi-passive revenue streams in your business.

060. Unlocking the Power of Retargeting Ads27 Apr 202300:22:01

On this episode of Not Your Average Online Marketing Podcast, we dive deep into the world of Facebook ads and the power of retargeting. 

You'll learn about:

  • The importance of warm retargeting ads to drive down lead generation cost
  • The value of content retargeting ads (for awareness, not sales) can actually boost launch sales
  • The (3) primary retargeting ads to include in every launch 


So tune in and learn more about the power of retargeting ads for generating leads and sales!

Links Mentioned:


Time Stamp Overview:


[00:00:27] Facebook retargeting ads: targeting people who have already seen your content.

[00:01:34] Retargeting strategies using Facebook ads and how businesses can target those who have shown interest in their products or services, such as through signing up for a free training program, by uploading an email list, or targeting those who have visited their website pages.

[00:04:06] Retargeting ads target people who engage with content, including warm leads from email lists or social media, to increase visibility and conversions during a launch.

[00:05:27] Email marketing has a low open rate and not all recipients register. Retargeting ads are useful to remind potential customers.

[00:06:23] Using warm engagement or retargeting ads is cheaper to get people to sign up. Running ads 24/7 grows email list, and retargeting email lists are less costly. Content retargeting ads can be used to push content to the audience. For example, after a workshop, retargeting ads can encourage people to watch the replay.

[00:07:32] Retargeting ad run to remind buyers to watch workshop replay and see offer for further program. Increases chance of purchase and exposure to offer.

[00:10:59] Retargeting sales page traffic is beneficial with a minimum of 50-100+  visitors, with iOS 14+ limiting retargeting from website traffic. Running ads to registered individuals is also important for retargeting.

[00:12:04] Retargeting ads should be 10% of the total budget for a launch, and it's recommended to spend $100-$150 on retargeting for every 300--500 people in the promotion. If spending more, follow the 10% rule.

[00:17:17] Retargeting ads budget tips, upload email list or URLs to retarget, focus on $100-150 per 3-500 people, monitor ad performance and adjust spending if needed, track cost per result for sales or leads and reach for content.

051. The Guru's Champagne Promises with Beer Budget Students19 Jan 202300:23:15

This episode is a little bit different - there isn't necessarily some tactical advice, or a "training" on how to run ads - but rather it's a conversations about the industry at large that I think it's important that we have!

In this episode I talk about how...

  • We easily get caught up comparing ourselves to things and experiences that we should
  • How I've felt SHAME around my success, because of the way our industry covets the 7-figure market
  • The reality of running a business online - even if it's not the popular marketing message we're used to hearing


This is a real, honest, transparent episode - and I hope you like it.  And if you do, can you do me a favor and DM me over on Instagram and let me know - I'd love to here your honest feedback!
