   PFPodcast ep.010: If You Say You Don't Have Enough Time, You Are Lying

   Hello Phenoms. Here's another short episode of the Phenomenal Future Podcast. TL;DR - Spend seven days writing down everything you do. It's a scary exercise, but worth it. Your productivity will skyrocket and go through the roof. Excuses are a dime a dozen: * I can't invest because I don't have enough time to keep up. * I can't start a podcast because I have a full time job. * I can't make videos because I'm not pretty enough or I'm not handsome enough. * I can't start my dream business because I don't have enough money. Hogwash! These are just stories. They are only fact if you believe them. I challenge you to write down, in a journal or notebook, where you spend your time over the next week. * Be rigorous. * If it's 5 minutes scanning news headlines, write it down. * Don't wait to write down later. You'll forget. You'll lie to yourself. * Don't judge yourself during the exercise. * Keep track of your sleep as well. * At the end of the week, add up occurences of each action and see where your time went. If you don't see at least 5 hours of wasted time, congratulations. For the rest of us (me included), there lies the opportunity to massively increase your productivity. If you find this content helpful, please SUBSCRIBE. You'll see more of my future posts and you'll help others find me, too! Thanks for being a compassionate human being. 1:10 - Create a future with the power of words 1:43 - Where do I spend my time? 2:10 - Producer vs Consumer of content 2:35 - Good habits and anchoring 3:24 - Please comment… good, bad, indifferent 4:00 - Challenge: Write down where your time goes 5:15 - Little tweaks give huge benefits This is a public episode.

   PFPodcast ep.009: How Can Email Still Be Relevant?

   We have Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, TikTok, Discord, Telegram, and on and on. How can email, a 27 year old technology, still be relevant? I’ll answer you first by asking you another question. How long did sending paper letters last? It’s more than a thousand years. It’s a good idea. Email just makes it easier to get it there and for you to look it up later. 1:50 - People can like you on Facebook or other social media, but if you post, there’s no guarantee your content will be pushed to them. 3:00 - Have you ever given your email address for a coupon, discount, or for free content on web page? 4:00 - Email addresses are our user IDs on a boatload of websites. 4:45 - How not to use or abuse email. 6:30 - The give and take of friendships.

    PFP ep003: The Four Letter Word Artists Must Wield For Success

    Artists of all stripes must learn how to build a raving fan base for success in the modern era. We are on the road to Web3. Either you follow this path to greener pastures or simply accept that your art will remain a hobby. For those artists who already have traction, the road will be easier because you already have a core fan base. However, at the risk of sounding like a politician… make no mistake, if you keep doing what you’ve always done, your career and revenue from your art will dry up. Think of this like global climate change. Some areas will flood with rising seas. Other areas will be crippled by drought. Either way, people living there will migrate to better living conditions. Where once central Canadian winters were inhospitable, soon it will be a promised land for growing crops. If you don’t migrate to where your fans are going — I’m speaking virtually now — you will lose them. That means YOU must learn how to cultivate your fan base through digital marketing (not simply posting on social media), learn to SELL ethically (there’s that four letter word!), and embrace the new ways of engaging with fans such as NFTs. Give your fans experiences they’ll never forget and they’ll be part of your tribe for life. This is a public episode.
