What Makes Stories Stick? Let’s Talk Strategies That Work

Howdy Reader! If you’re anything like me, you're slowly walking up from the football and tryptophan hangover from overindulging in yesterday’s Thanksgiving festivities. If you’re reading this from somewhere other than the U.S. I hope you had a productive Thursday with many, fewer calories. And now, the Christmas season is upon us! Fun fact, “Jingle Bells” wasn’t always a Christmas favorite. Initially composed in 1857 as “One Horse Open Sleigh,” James Pierpont wrote it as a Thanksgiving Day song. The tune became such a Christmas sensation that by 1859, it was renamed “Jingle Bells.” Even back then, people had no control over what goes viral!

Howdy Reader! Quick heads up before you go looking for us this Friday: the lights are off. No Creator News Live at 10 am. No Maker's Table at 1 pm. For this Friday, your usual lineup is taking the day off. Here's the skinny... I just wrapped up speaking at Digital Day Wichita (one of the first conferences I ever spoke at when I was a wee lad and also so cool to be back in the state I was born in!), and between that and a little scheduling snafu on our end, the timing just didn't line up for...
Howdy Reader! We ran out of show before we ran out of your questions last episode. This Friday, we settle up. And we're doing it without a guest. This week, it's just Paul Gowder and me in the hot seats, two longtime creators comparing notes from decades of building shows, brands, and communities online. Because here's the thing. AI can write your posts and clone your voice, but it can't tell your story and it can't build your community. Those two skills are the whole ballgame now, and we're...
Howdy Reader! In the last three weeks, YouTube quietly rewrote the rules for creators. Most people haven't caught up yet. Today, we're sitting down with Jerry Potter, a 150,000-subscriber YouTube creator and host of the Done By Lunch Entrepreneurs podcast. Jerry spent 20 years in broadcast and now teaches entrepreneurs how to build a business in half the time using high-leverage assets like YouTube channels and podcasts.
