How to Become More Productive
FACT: I’ve written and shared a LOT about time management in the past. Why? Because it’s such a constant source of stress in the lives of my fellow entrepreneurs, and I think there’s always more to learn. At the end of the day, we’re all just trying to get better at work/life balance, and I know I’m incredibly grateful for this growing community so we can all help each other figure out what it means and what is required to be a thriving entrepreneur in the 21st century.
Now over the years, I...

How to Brainstorm Blog Ideas
Now, I’ll admit, I’m not always full of ideas myself. I’m sure everyone out there has felt the same from time to time. And it’s stressful, isn’t it? We know that, as personal brand entrepreneurs and content marketers, we need to be putting out valuable content on a regular basis to keep our communities coming back and staying engaged.
We all know the value of quality content, but that doesn’t make it any easier to stare at a blank screen and try to fill it up, week after week. So here’s a li...

How to Be a Great Podcast Guest
Now, you listen to podcasts, right? Of course you do. Pretty much everyone does these days, and there are so many exceptional ones out there that it feels like we could spend all our time consuming them instead of actually working. Don’t do that!
But…what if podcasts could somehow factor into your business strategy? What if you could find a way to build podcasts right into your content marketing efforts to drive community engagement and even…… profit?

How to Sell Without Being Salesy
Let’s talk about sales, baby.
It’s a word that so many marketers hate these days, but it’s because we don’t really know the true MEANING of the word! We think sales, and we think of the vacuum cleaner salesman showing up at the door during dinner.
And then it gets worse, because when we call ourselves marketers, we immediately lump ourselves in with the sleazy salesmen that no one wants to be around.
But friends, today is a very special day because we’re going to turn that entire notion on...

How to NOT Go Broke as an Entrepreneur!
One of the things I’ve seen in the past two decades of being in business is that just because you’re working for yourself doesn’t mean you’re not broke. I’ve seen lots of ‘Starving Artist’ entrepreneurs.
Why do I use that term… ‘starving artist’? Well, my friend Jeff Goins (who recently blew up the Tropical Think Tank event stage!) has a new book out called Real Artists Don’t Starve, and it’s not just for artists! Jeff gave me a pre-release copy when we were together for TTT17 and I devoured...

How to Become an Influencer
Many of you are aware that for some time I’ve been planning and working on a new project that’s going to become very close to my heart, moving forward. And that project is simple entitled:
#DUCKERZONE
For quite some time I’ve been wanting to create more video content, and when launched later this year, #DuckerZone will help me achieve that goal – and some! I say ‘later this year’ as a final launch date has yet to be established.
The show will be a mash-up of viewer submitted questions (and m...
