| Unlocking LinkedIn Success: The Power of Impressions | 02 Sep 2024 | 00:17:34 | |
Are you pouring your heart and soul into creating content on LinkedIn, only to feel like it's not getting the attention it deserves? 😩 If so, it might be time to shift your focus to a crucial, yet often overlooked, metric: Impressions. But why do LinkedIn impressions matter more than likes, comments, or shares? 🤔 In our latest podcast episode, we pull back the curtain on LinkedIn's algorithm and explain why impressions are the lifeblood of your content strategy. Here’s a sneak peek at what you’ll learn: 🎯 What Are LinkedIn Impressions? Think of impressions as the first step in your content’s journey. They represent the number of times your post appears on someone's feed. The more impressions, the greater your chances of reaching the right audience. 💡 Why Impressions Matter More Than You Think While engagement metrics like likes and comments are great, they can be misleading. Impressions tell the real story of how many people are actually seeing your content. Without a solid impression count, even the best posts can fall flat. 🔑 Strategies to Boost Your Impressions Learn actionable tips to increase your visibility on LinkedIn. From optimizing your posting times to crafting attention-grabbing headlines, we cover it all. Plus, discover how to turn those impressions into genuine engagements and valuable connections. Whether you’re a LinkedIn veteran or just starting out, this episode is packed with insights that will change the way you approach your content strategy. 🎙️ 👉 Ready to make every post count?

| The Benefit Of Growing Your Business Using Prizes, Giveaways, and Sweepstakes | 28 Sep 2023 | 00:31:10 | |
Carolyn Wilman founded Imagination Edge Inc.* in 1994 as a small-business marketing consulting firm. She created On-Demand and Relief Marketing services allowing small companies to obtain the experience and personalized services of a professional marketer without the financial commitment of a marketing department or adding additional full-time staff. To date, her Online Contesting System has helped others win over $1,000,000 in cash and prizes. The 2nd Edition, How To Win Cash, Cars, Trips & More! was published in 2016. The 3rd Edition: Prizes, Prizes, Everywhere! will be published in 2021. In keeping with her objective of teaching others how to have fun, From the Contest Queen is a blog about all things contesting, sweepstaking, lucky & fun, along with her tips, tricks, news, and rants on the hobby. Additionally, Carolyn runs seminars and webinars: How to Win Cash, Cars, Trips … & More! and Attracting Luck for hundreds of people annually. From 2005 until 2011, Carolyn produced The Winning EDGE, a free e-newsletter that included contesting stories, tips, tricks, and links to new contests. From 2008 until 2010, Carolyn hosted an online radio show, With The Contest Queen, interviewing the movers and shakers in the promotional industry and sweepstaking community. Both were revamped and relaunched in 2013, with The Winning EDGE being sent out bi-weekly and With The Contest Queen only broadcasting special podcasts. (NOTE: Archives for both the newsletter and radio show can be found online.) After being a featured speaker at numerous promotional events and U.S. sweepstaking conventions, she formed Canada’s first contesting clubs. Once several clubs had been firmly established, Carolyn co-founded the Canadian Contestors Association, which ran the Canadian Contestors Convention in 2007. Carolyn, her volunteer team, and the convention were filmed by the CBC for a Doc Zone documentary and written about in Reader’s Digest, both released in 2008. She is currently a lead volunteer for SweepsCon 2017, to be held in Orange County, CA, in July. In 2013 Carolyn embarked on her first U.S. Tour. The “Secrets to Winning” Sweepstakes Tour took her through 17 states, hosting workshops in 12 cities and teaching “sweepers” How To Use RoboForm Effectively along with How to Win on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest by giving away over $6000 in prizes over the course of 4 weeks. In 2019 Carolyn decided to big up a gauntlet that was given to her in 2008. She bought the rights to all of Helene Hadsell’s work. After being out of print for over 30 years, the first book to be updated and re-published was Contesting: The Name It & Claim It Game. In Contact With Other Realms and Confessions of an 83-Year-Old Sage were re-published shortly after. Her final book, a work of fiction, A Man Called Friday, will be re-published in 2023. Her efforts as a marketing expert landed her on the cover of Marketing Magazine in 2006; she was named by MORE Magazine as one of Canada’s Top 40 Women over 40 in 2007 and was featured in the premiere episode of High Stakes Sweepers on TLC in 2011. Carolyn was nominated in 2006, 2008, and 2009 for the RBC Canadian Woman Entrepreneur of the Year and in 2006 for Entrepreneur of the Year with the Whitby Chamber of Commerce.

Here are 3 tips on how to move past analysis paralysis and get into action: 1. take a breath/digest and apply 2. Focus and apply 3.

| What Exactly Is A Fractional CFO | 29 Jun 2023 | 00:38:22 | |
Staci Millard "Over the last decade, I have helped hundreds of businesses understand their numbers and increase their profits. These people and businesses became my friends and my community. Knowing it was families’ hard-earned money being invested, I was pulled to focus on making ALL the pieces fit together and less on financial statements and taxes. As a small business owner myself, I had a deep and intimate understanding of their struggles. I knew exactly what it meant if they stayed stuck on the treadmill, overworked, underpaid, and feeling like they have no control. More importantly, I also know how freeing it could be if they were to overcome the invisible things that were holding them back, regaining control of their time and money, and freeing them up to experience all the joys in life. With that on my heart, I went all in with my time and energy, committing to shifting that small business statistic from failure to success! I give business owners simple tools to gain control and understand their whole business. With perspective, they can shift from keeping their business alive to helping it thrive. When I’m not busy connecting with small businesses, you can find me with the other half of my heart - my family. I have two beautiful little girls and the most helpful husband. We enjoy camping or being in outdoors. I practice yoga and I love chasing the sunshine. No matter where we are, you will also find a stack of books just waiting for me to dive into them."
