Not all social media platforms are created equal, and not all of them deserve your time. In this episode, Caroline Langdon of Impact Media House talks about choosing the right platform based on where your ideal clients actually hang out, instead of pouring energy into Instagram or TikTok just because everyone else says you should.

191. Hot Take: You Need A CRM

vendredi 13 février 2026 • Durée 12:58

In the spiciest Hot Take yet, Jennifer and Robin call out a problem they didn’t realize was this widespread: successful travel advisors running entire businesses from memory, inboxes, and spreadsheets. And they don’t mince words. A CRM isn’t “nice to have.” It’s the difference between overwhelm and control, chaos and consistency, boutique service and a truly repeatable luxury client experience. If your processes live in your head, this episode will feel uncomfortably familiar. And if you’ve been putting off setting up a CRM because it feels like “too much work,” this conversation will convince you it’s the work that changes everything.

Unsure which CRM is right for you? Join Niche for real advisor feedback and the insights you need to choose the one that fits your brain and your business. → https://www.tiquehq.com/niche/?utm_source=Tique_Talks&utm_medium=Show_Notes&utm_campaign=Ep191&utm_content=Niche

182. The Recipe For A High-Converting Website with Ingrid Urena

mardi 13 janvier 2026 • Durée 43:30

A beautiful website means nothing if it doesn’t make people click, book, or buy. Ingrid Urena of Penguin Designing joins this episode to answer the question: what actually makes a website convert? She walks through the foundational “ingredients” every high-performing website needs: crystal-clear messaging rooted in your audience’s language, strategic site structure that supports SEO and discoverability, and intentional design choices that guide visitors toward action. You’ll hear why clarity beats clever every time, how smart structure boosts both SEO and conversions, and the sneaky copy and design mistakes that quietly send potential clients clicking away. Plus, Ingrid covers the core legal elements every website needs to protect both you and your clients (because “I’ll add that later” is not a strategy). If your site feels more like a digital business card than a sales tool, this episode shows you how to turn it into something that actually converts!
