bonusWelcome to the ninth bonus episode of the Confident Live Marketing Podcast, where we’re celebrating the run-up to our 200th episode and 4th anniversary!In this bonus episode, I re-run the interview with two amazing guests: Michelle Levitt, Marketing and Creative Director of Heil Sound, a professional audio equipment manufacturer, and Izabela Russell, the CEO of Music Radio Creative, a company specializing in audio branding.We dive into the importance of audio branding and its role in reflecting your personality. We also discuss the technical aspects of microphones and how they can impact your voice’s authenticity.Here are the key takeaways from our conversations:Audio branding: How you want to be perceived and how you want people to feel when they listen to your content. Consider the intro, outro, and elements in between, along with suitable music and voice artists.Reflecting your personality with Izabela Russell: Think about how your audio branding can reflect your personality. If you’re quirky and fun, incorporate that into your branding. If you’re more serious, choose music and voice elements that match that vibe.Energy and authenticity: The energy you project on camera should be a slightly heightened version of your true self. Be authentic, and don’t be afraid to showcase your energy.Microphone frequency response with Michelle Levitt: The range of frequencies a microphone can capture. Look for a small rise in the 2-5 kHz range for better articulation on the human voice.Choosing the right microphone: The difference between microphones like the Heil PR 30 and PR 40 lies in their unique frequency responses. The PR 40 has more low-end and gives a warm, traditional broadcast sound, while the PR 30 has more mid-range presence.Authenticity in your voice: Choose a microphone that makes you sound like yourself. When people meet you in person, they should not be surprised by how your voice sounds compared to your podcast or live show.Please Subscribe! Don’t miss an episode!

Ep 188How to be Awesome with Adobe Express
In this episode, I’m walking through Adobe Express. It is an easy and quick-to-use service that helps you create stunning visual content. You can create the content from scratch. Or from the thousands of included templates, stock photos, animations and more.You've probably heard of Adobe Creative Cloud. It's an amazing subscription service to all of Adobe’s professional tools. This includes Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Audition etc.I use many of these regularly, especially Photoshop and Audition. But unless you are a professional, the Creative Cloud tools can be overkill, too complicated and too powerful.Adobe Express is a collection of content creation tools for non-designers.

The menopause.It’s not something you hear people talking about very often.Yet it affects 20% of the workforce.

And 60% ranked workplace support during menopause as ‘poor’ or ‘below average’.”So, what can be done to help, especially for women running their own businesses?

Ep 173Share your Knowledge with Video
I first connected with today’s guest, Liz Jostes, around 10 years ago via blogging. Sharing knowledge through online content has been a powerful part of our lives and our businesses. It allows us to create more impact and authority. Written content is still powerful. But as Liz said to me recently, with video, people get to see and hear you and that creates a deeper connection.In this episode, we’re talking about how you can share your knowledge powerfully through video. Your ideas can start with written content such as a blog post, or even a Tweet. But you can easily turn that into a video (live or pre-recorded). Then you can embed that into your blog post and bring it full circle. Or you can start with a video and turn that into a blog post.There’s so much to talk about!Liz Jostes is an online marketing strategist, speaker, and business owner of Eli Rose Social Media. A former corporate marketer, Liz has owned her own firm since 2011 and is certified in SEO, Facebook ads, and social media management.
