2. Become a person worth listening to with stories that stop your listeners in their tracks.
   
3. Facts tell, emotions sell. And you can tell a story in as little as 6 words. “Kentucky trash heap  yields unexpected flower.” — John Kurtz
   
4. Brainstorm all kinds of stories including 1) your signature story, “mess-to-success” moments, detours, and successes; 2) case studies and testimonials; 3) an interesting thing that happened to you last week; and 4) your purpose, guiding principles, and how you help make transformation and results happen.

S11 E22 Know, Like, Trust, AND Your Special Sauce: The ‘Extra 12%’ for Your Podcast  |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Ben Gioia (“joya”)

1. “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” — Will Durant
   
2. Become a person worth listening to by remembering that your listeners can’t see you. So how do you connect with people you can’t see?
   
3. The nutshell: Yes to everything above. And you can start simply: 1) ask people to share their stories with you; and 2) share your stories with them. 
   
4. [TAKE ACTION] Plan to speak with 3 people for 13 minutes this week. Ask them to share stories (that could be relevant for your show). Share a story or two with them. Then go back through the bullets above and reflect on the conversations you’ve had. How will you integrate what’s relevant into your podcast?

S11 E23 ‘Ummm…’ How To Sit Behind The Mic and Use Your Voice Effectively |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Ben Gioia (“joya”)

1. “Communication works for those who work at it.” John Powell
   
2. Become someone worth listening to — with a podcast worth listening to — by giving depth and dimension to what you teach… by using your voice right.
   
3. First (and always) the basics: 1) practice knowing how to use the cough button on mic and mute button on Zoom, etc.; and 2) be aware of “um”, “so, and “ah”.
   
4. From there, add variety & dimension to your speaking voice (and to the experience of your listener) with pace, tone, and pitch.
   
5. [TAKE ACTION] Schedule 13 minutes to review the show notes from this episode. Then think about how you will use pace, tone, and pitch in your show. Don’t forget the cough button!

S11 E24 How To Build An Audience of Engaged Listeners For Your Podcast |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Ben Gioia (“joya”) 

1. "If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself." — Henry Ford
   
2. Become a person worth listening to by doing the unexpected. Speak to a dozen or so (at least) of your ideal clients & ideal strategic partners ABOUT the podcast that you’re developing. Now’s a good time to make sure you’re on the right track for content and clients.
   
3. Ask them specific questions about the topic of your podcast. (i.e. “Regarding (topic of your podcast), what are your biggest challenges? etc.)
   
4. 1) Start by brainstorming a list of ideal clients / strategic partners. 2) Reach out and schedule time to speak with them using your podcast as the “reason why”. 3) Have the conversation and make sure you’re recording & transcribing (ai software). 4) Review the conversations for language and trends.
   
5. [TAKE ACTION] Brainstorm your list and start scheduling calls as soon as possible. Don’t wait. Schedule one call if one is available. (Yes, schedule more.)
