Saison 4 · Épisode 69

vendredi 6 mars 2026 • Durée 58:12

Today on Useful Creator we are answering the question: How do you grow your business…when people only trust you?

In this episode, I sit down with Conrad, the founder of Affordable Imports Studios and we unpack something most entrepreneurs don’t talk about:

How personal brand success can help your business grow while at the same time slow your business scaling.

We talk about:

- The moment he had to leave his job and go all in And the the sacrifices required to build something sustainable

- The difficulty of transferring trust from a person to a brand

- Why investing in people beats investing in systems

We also get into his honest opinions on content:

- And why community beats cold marketing almost every time

- Why for him word-of-mouth is still king

- And how problem-solving, not marketing, became the core of his business

If you’re trying to build a brand…If you’re wrestling with the balance between personal identity and company growth, You’re going to want to hear this one.

From Dyslexia to Industry Leader (What 20 years of business taught me) ft. Brendon Brathwaite

Saison 4 · Épisode 67

samedi 7 février 2026 • Durée

In this episode I sit down with Brendon, founder of a high-energy experiential events company that’s now celebrating 20 years in business, long before Instagram, TikTok, or even real social media marketing existed.

We talk about:

→ How he discovered he was dyslexic and how that completely changed the way he learned and built his business

→ Why word-of-mouth built his company…but content is now essential for attracting the right kind of client

→ His strong opinions on behind-the-scenes content and why showing the human side of production matters more than polished highlight reels

→ And how he thinks about content as a way to pre-sell the feeling of an experience before a client ever meets him”

This is a conversation about growth, storytelling, and using content to attract alignment not just attention.

This Is Why Most Interviews Feel Fake ( How to Interview & Storytell ft. Julian Rogers)

Saison 4 · Épisode 66

mardi 6 janvier 2026 • Durée

What if the biggest mistake most content creators make…is talking too much?

Today I sit down with Julian Rogers, a veteran Caribbean journalist who’s spent over 6 decades interviewing everyone from politicians to everyday people and he has strong opinions about how content should be created.

In this episode we’ll cover

Why silence can be more powerful than talking, and how leaving gaps can expose truth… especially when someone isn’t being honest.

Julian also explains why preparation is non-negotiable, including the extreme lengths he’s gone to just to be competent enough to ask the right questions.

And we go deep on storytelling why most modern content misses the human impact, and how one event can ripple across families, communities, and history itself.

And finally, he breaks down why storytelling isn’t about headlines, but about understanding who is affected, how, and why that story actually matters.

If you’re a creator, journalist, podcaster, or business owner using content to build trust, this episode will recalibrate how you show up on camera.

Enjoy my conversation with Julian.

Client Winning SEO Strategy - Teacher: Sam Dunning

Saison 4 · Épisode 62

jeudi 5 décembre 2024 • Durée 49:48

The real questions you get on sales calls are hard They're not basic stuff. Are they they're harsh people want to know harsh truths And the good thing about pulling faqs and like a little carousel at the bottom of your pages You'll find they get read quite a lot You And you'll also find that it saves you time on sales calls.

Cause you're addressing these objections and these queries and these hard questions up front. It makes folks more likely to convert because they actually see you as transparent and trustworthy rather than just trying to get their contact info at all costs. Hello and welcome to the useful content podcast. And today we have a brand new teacher in our useful content classroom. Sam Dunning. Hi, Sam.

Hey Juma, thanks for having me on, man. Looking forward to the conversation.

It's great to have you on Sam. Uh, I've been following your content for a while. And you have been in my LinkedIn feed for a while as well. And so it's great to have you on today to talk about B2B strategy and SEO. So that's a topic that I think I'm going to enjoy and the audience was going to enjoy as well.

But before we get into that, could you please tell the people what you do and how you help your clients make useful content?

yeah, yeah, sure thing. So we, we tend to work with slightly frustrated B2B service tech or SaaS companies that are maybe a little tired of seeing their competitors above them in Google's organic search results. Every time a dream client searches for their offer direct. Maybe a problem that they solve or compares them to competitors.

Meaning those competitors to them are stealing traffic, mindshare, and most importantly, inbound leads, demos, or sales calls. So we fix those issues with a slightly unusual approach to SEO and content marketing, uh, breaking B2B, which I'm sure we're going to dive into soon.

Hmm. What is the slightly unusual approach you're talking about?

there's, there's a lot of mistakes when it comes to B2B SEO. Yeah. Both serviced and technology companies and software companies make all the time. And rather than so many folks, when it comes to an SEO strategy, get caught in what I call a traffic trap. So they try to acquire as much traffic to their website as possible. As a result, that often means they're going for more informative. Based keywords or ranking informative based blog articles, pages, or similar on the website. And the trouble is when you focus on that it drives more what we call top of funnel traffic. So people that are maybe just looking for a quick answer to a question Maybe looking to educate themselves And they're probably going to skim your page, skim your article, skim your blog, whatever it may be, but they're pretty unlikely to do something bottom of funnel, AKA book demo, book a sales call, whatever that relevant next step you want to feed your sales team with.

And, uh, and since I founded my company, which has been, which was seven years ago, I always say I'm not a marketing agency. Uh, but what I do is I'm a brand strategy, uh, and marketing expert. And I partner with brands, uh, to. Grow their brands, uh, meaning that I do a brand strategy and I helped, um, uh, manage their brand teams, build their internal external teams. Uh, but I also work with, uh, the industry experts in, in branding, visual identity and tone of voice. So when I do the strategy work, depending on the needs of the customer client, uh, we also work. Like an agency, although I say I'm not an agency, but which means that we develop the branding, the visual identity, the tone of voice. We also build websites, but this is where I partner with the.

Saison 3 · Épisode 60

jeudi 21 novembre 2024 • Durée 45:56

I joined an engagement pod in 2018. I it ruined my LinkedIn it took me a long time to bring back the right people into my audience. When I was creating content, the only people that would ever see it Were the people in the pod and the people in the pod weren't interested in what I have to do for a living or interested in what I'm selling, so it took me a long time to get rid of those people and then start curating a new audience all over again.

So from experience, I can say it's going to ruin your LinkedIn. Despite what the owners of the engagement pod try promoting. Hello and welcome to Useful Content. And today we have a brand new teacher in our Useful Content classroom. Gus Bandel.

All right. Great. So Gus, um, I know we came here today to talk specifically about some LinkedIn related things, cause that's what you're into. That's what you do. So could you please share with the people what you do and how you help your clients make useful content?

Absolutely. So what I, um, I'm a LinkedIn trainer. I teach people how to use LinkedIn. I tell people I'm the UK's number one LinkedIn trainer, according to my mom. Um, and essentially I, I teach business owners, senior executives, and teams how to make the most of LinkedIn, how to really leverage it for their business and make sure that, uh, quite frankly, they're using it like a proper social media platform.
