Every Day is Saturday | Personal Development with Sam Crowley http://everydayissaturday.com/blog Tue, 07 Sep 2010 13:21:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 en hourly 1 Building Your Brand Through Podcasting – Part II http://everydayissaturday.com/blog/building-your-brand-through-podcasting-part-ii/ http://everydayissaturday.com/blog/building-your-brand-through-podcasting-part-ii/#comments Tue, 07 Sep 2010 13:21:36 +0000 Sam Crowley http://everydayissaturday.com/blog/?p=631 Meet Cowboy Shaman.

Dana Ross Martin lives in Austin, TX and has one of the coolest podcasts online. It’s called Cowboy Shaman.
I’ll let Dana explain how he came up with the name, when you listen to our interview.

Like Ali Wylie, Dana had no knowledge of how to project his voice online and create a killer podcast. He went through our Podcast To The Top training, networked with winners like Ali, and now can teach the class himself.

It’s not necessary, but it certainly doesn’t hurt to have a “radio voice” which you will hear from Dana. He’s humble, funny and grateful each day he wakes up – awesome attributes to have wouldn’t you agree?

Dana explains in today’s interview how easy it is to begin telling a story online and gaining followers to your show. As Dana says “If I can do it…..anyone can!”
Couldn’t agree more, Cowboy;)

Here’s our interview

Five years ago, I was introduced to podcasting by a friend and saw how it could become a powerful way to build the Every Day Is Saturday brand.
Having no money and no real Internet marketing knowledge, I needed a vehicle that could give me confidence and set me apart from the competition almost immediately.

Fast forward five years and the Every Day Is Saturday show is heard in over 100 countries and has 70,000+ subscribers. Amazing!

You may be saying “That’s great for you Sam but how can I do the same thing? I don’t have a podcast and sure as heck don’t know the first thing about how to make money with an Internet radio show.”

I would say… “GREAT!”

What if I told you that you don’t need money or technical knowledge to launch your very own Internet radio show?

What if I also showed you how to leverage this medium to attract joint venture partners who will help build your million dollar brand for you?

I will do all that (and some…)

But I don’t want you to take my word for it.

Meet Ali Wylie:
Country: Italy
Wife, mother of two and too shy to answer her own telephone (prior to enrolling in my Podcast To The Top webinar training.)

How did Ali go from no podcast to 7,331 downloads (as of today) and page one of Google for her main podcast keyword?

Listen in on our conversation and find out.
Note: Ali and I did the interview via skype, there are a few spots of echo and audio being clipped – nothing major, just wanted to give you a heads up.

I laughed pretty hard when Ali described her ‘recording studio’ as a “Messy attic in Italy…”
Awesome!
Here’s our interview on her new found love of podcasting and the great success she has had thus far.
Enjoy.

The irony is that the ones offering advice are some of the most frustrated people on the planet because they didn’t take the shot that you are contemplating.
They stood on the sidelines and watched as others went for their dream.

If you want to be empowered to go for your dream, watch this video. I share some of the craziest advice I received from people when I set out on my entrepreneurial journey. I also give you an easy way of dealing with such nonsense.

In addition – you will understand what the difference is between Risk and Risk-y. A very important distinction you need to make before making a decision on what business to begin.

Your comments are welcome:)

Happy Saturday!

I’ve been a huge Les Brown fan ever since I got dipped into personal development. I love his passion and his self-deprecating humor. If you’re having even the slightest bit of a down day, all you need to do is plug into any of Les’ teachings and your mood will turn around record time.

I have the entire interview posted here on my Motivational Podcast

You must listen to this hour long interview more than once. There was so much awesome information shared, there’s no way you’ll catch everything the first time around.

I’ll be in touch soon about my upcoming virtual boot camp. Exciting times lie ahead for you. Set your sights high and don’t pay attention those who say it can’t be done.
You are a miracle and have the ability to live everyday like it’s Saturday.

My favorite quote form the call last night was “The problem is not that people aim too high and miss, it’s that they aim too low and hit.”

To Your Saturday,
Sam

Motivational Speaker

Next month I will be embarking on a nationwide tour to get out and ‘meet the people’ – in search of champions who have been affected by the Every Day Is Saturday message.

Last year we launched Six Days To Saturday and life as we know it was changed….

For me, for you and for thousands around the world. People began to understand that you don’t need a fancy title to live a fancy lifestyle.

Check out the video below to see how you and I can connect this summer.
(My wife said she got a little scared at the intensity towards the end of the video, you can be the judge….)

Be sure to send me an email sam [at] everydayissaturday.com after watching the video.

Fired Up!

Sam
