[summary] =>

In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Little Bird Marketing President and Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney talks with Multilingual Connections founder and CEO Jill Bishop. With similar backgrounds in cultural anthropology, the two discuss a variety of linguistic eccentricities as they apply to marketing, as well as the importance of nuanced translation. They also discuss Jill’s time as a Culture, Diversity and Language Consultant with Chipotle Mexican Grill, where, among other things, the ambiguity of the word “skosh” has been a foe for as long as anyone can remember. (“Just a skosh of sour cream, please!)

Multilingual Connections provides translation, transcription and multimedia localization in 75 different languages, provided by a team of 25 full-time staff members and hundreds of language specialists. Jill talks about the differences between translating qualitative and quantitative surveys, managing remote employees, and Turkish coffee and baklava!

In this episode, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney and producer Leighton Cordell discuss Priscilla's top three pieces of technology that have made a breeze of multipreneurship! [summary] =>

Running a business is hard. Running four businesses is quadruple-y hard. In the olden days, people who ran four businesses were just tired and grouchy all the time, but with the advent of mechanized looms and subsequently the internet, things have changed. In this episode, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney dishes on the top 3 technological advancements that allow her to continue being a chill individual, whilst juggling a host of businesses and employees (not literal employee juggling, btw.)

Those three golden geese are:

• Trello - A project management system to end all project management systems. Little Bird has been a big Trello enthusiast since the beginning, and with the development of our SOAR System, we created a proprietary Trello template to wrangle a plethora of tasks that would otherwise be unmanageable.
• Lastpass - A password vault and generator that will literally free up brain space. Need more brainspace? Yeah you do! Stop lugging all those passwords around in your noggin so you can get more stuff done.
• Rocketbook - A smart notebook, with real pages, that you really write in, and it magically sends your notes to all the places you need them. You know what the opposite of a smart notebook is? A dumb notebook. Don't use a dumb notebook. S/O to our esteemed clients and comrades, Fieldwork, for the heads up on this lifesaver.

What else? Oh, Leighton is in the booth too, providing all the Thomas the Tank Engine references you ever needed. What? You only need one? You're in luck!

OH YEAH! There's a giveaway too! Get your paws on a Rocketbook or maybe some sweet Beacons to jump-start your productivity!

In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney talks with EMI Research Solutions President, and Intellicast Podcast host Adam Jolley about how freaking much they have in common.

Separated at birth? You decide. Here’s what we know: They’re both selling presidents. They both work in the market research field. They both go to conferences galore, and value making connections over making pouncy-sales. They’re both podcast hosts. They both have blue hair. Ok, that last one isn’t true at all, but the rest are!

Priscilla and Adam discuss different methods of sales, the importance of continued personal growth and mentorship, how to keep podcasts fun, and Adam’s great love of sports (separated-at-birth hypothesis now debunked!!)

[summary] =>

Goodness, according to Emerson, is where the roots of wisdom are planted.

In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney talks with Baillie Buchanan, cofounder and CRO of Research for Good. Research for Good has a disruptive business model. They specialize in market research sample and fieldwork solutions, but their unique mission provides charitable donations for each response, in addition to compensating the respondents. For the past few years, that charity has been Action Against Hunger.

Baillie and Priscilla talk about what motivates respondents to provide the highest quality of feedback, how technology is impacting the market research landscape, and the future of work culture. Research For Good, beginning with only three founders, has grown to over 50 employees as an entirely remote-based business. Baillie says this feat is attributable to accountability, as well as a few technological advancements.

They also talk about humanizing data, recognizing survey fatigue, and the awesomeness of Women in Research’s WIRexec. Check out Research for Good, and find Baillie on Twitter and LinkedIn.

[summary] =>

In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Priscilla McKinney and Xenia Muntean discuss the best ways to develop micro and macro content, how content management is handled for B2B models compared to B2C, and how people in the content management world seemed to be lacking the perfect tool to handle social media in a modern way. That's until Xenia came along with Planable, a program that made social media content management more efficient, allowing workflow and scheduling to overlap perfectly. 

Xenia is the CEO and Co-Founder of Planable, a content review and marketing collaboration platform used by over 4,000 teams at brands like Jaguar Land Rover, Viber, and World Food Program.

But there's a reason for that, and Priscilla discusses the ramifications/lack of ramifications with C-Suite Network Chairman Jeffrey Hayzlett [summary] =>

At any point between 2004 and 2014ish, if Apple had announced that it was doing away with iTunes, music consumers and tech-heads around the world would have dejectedly tossed down their 2nd gen. 4 gig capacity blue ipod minis and shouted, “But my music!” Recently, however, when Apple casually mentioned that they were killing the service (in name, at least), it was sort of met with a worldwide “Ok, whatever.” In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney met with Jeffrey Hayzlett to discuss - at least partially - if there will be any discernible impact for podcasters and podcast listeners during the separation and renaming of Apple’s various media services. Spoiler: it’s unlikely.

Jeffrey Hayzlett is the Chairman of C-Suite Network, host of The HERO Factor Podcast on C-Suite Radio, a primetime television host and a bestselling author. In addition to the iTunes kerfuffle, he and Priscilla discuss the art of podcasting, good guests, bad guests, and the importance of a network related to individual podcast genres. Ponderings from the Perch is a member of C-Suite Network, which Hayzlett founded to give c-suite themed podcasts a familial bond to share resources and connections. 

What else? Celebrity look-alikes, of course! We’ll get you the photographic documentation in a forthcoming blog recap, but the Little Birds have collectively suggested that Hayzlett bears a resemblance to the great Hugh Bonneville - in short, we foresee Mr. Hayzlett answering to “Lord Grantham” in the near future!

For the sesquicentennial episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney and special guest Bob Ferro dig down to the core of talent acquisition in the Market Research field. Ferro is the Managing Director at Trusted Talent, which specializes in executive recruiting for market research and insights professionals.

They talk about retention of innovative employees, how the MR industry is being impacted by the gig economy, and the importance of urgency in the hiring process - across the ever-evolving landscape of market research.

Bob is a regular attendee of MR conferences, and earlier this year was awarded Little Bird’s quasi-fictional “BEST SHOES” award during the Quirk’s Chicago Event.  Bob says that the combination of shared experience within Trusted Talent, in addition to face-to-face connection through various MMR events helps him better understand the kinds of people his clients are wanting to hire.

Trusted Talent has a free tool to help narrow the focus for the hiring process. Check it out now, or save it for your sempiternal future reference. Priscilla also highly recommends the Trusted Talent blog!

It's literally nothing but net. [summary] =>

She shoots, she scores! Listen to Shelly Bouren, Research Manager for the NBA’s Detroit Pistons, as she discusses the overarching connection between building relationships and the research that glues those buyer personas together.

In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney and Bouren pass baskets of knowledge back-and-forth, from discussing how to use data and research to better target the market you’re trying to reach, to the non-linear journey of the buyer persona, and to segmenting that information once you have it so you’re not advertising the same content to the same people.

Shelly leads research and insights for the Detroit Pistons, supporting data-driven decision making throughout the business organization. Working with ticket sales, corporate sponsorships, operations, marketing and entertainment; and she is passionate about giving fans the best possible experience while maintaining a continuous focus on revenue. Prior to working with the Pistons, she spent several years in marketing and advertising support for automotive and financial services brands.

Life is tough and busy, and everyone is looking for a quick fix for problems within their family, business, and overall livelihood. In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Priscilla talks with Wendy Yellen, who believes the best solution for managing our lives isn’t a band-aid, rather a deep understanding of our brain through the power of Eidetics. Eidetic Image Therapy is defined as a system of psychotherapy.

The method of Eidetic therapy techniques and exercises have been successful in altering everyday behavior and more importantly, in strengthening emotional and physical health.

Wendy has introduced thousands of men and women around the world to the evidence-based treatment of Eidetics. This practice, based on Ancient Greek knowledge and 21st century science, enables business people and creatives to unlock their full potential and remove the weight of old, often “unseen” vulnerabilities which have been holding them back.

Listen to the whole podcast to hear Priscilla and Wendy talk about this ancient form of knowledge that has been molded to help the modern entrepreneur and business owners find their own personal “ruts in energy” so they can address those issues and operate at full capacity.

If you’ve ever noticed how a single person in a bad mood can negatively impact a room full of people, then you understand the importance of presence. In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Priscilla McKinney talks with her friend Anese Cavanaugh, author of “Contagious Culture” and new book “Contagious You.” Anese and Priscilla discuss the books as well as Anese’s IEP Method (Intentional Energetic Presence) that can be used to make intentional personal decisions that can have a wide-reaching impact - for which there is a free downloadable presence guide and IEP sheet.

[summary] =>

As our old pal, Oliver Wendell Holmes said, “A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.”

He probably wasn’t talking about the business and consumer dynamic, but as this episode illustrates, it certainly applies. This week, Priscilla discusses how experiences between businesses and customers can be consciously designed toward excellence, with MMR Live Founder and Chief Operating Officer Tricia Houston. In addition to speaking about experience strategy’s impact on all levels of a business, Tricia also discusses how MMR Live has evolved since being founded in 2017. Along the way, they talk about the Atlanta Zoo, Zappo’s customer-first mentality, and how Chick-Fil-A wins at apologies.

[summary] =>

So, you think you’re pretty tough, do you? Well lemme introduce you to a couple toughies who eat fear for breakfast. Their names: Priscilla McKinney and Andy Crestodina. I heard they’re so accustomed to living on the edge that they don’t even flinch at…using Wordpress for a web host. Pretty hardcore, yeah?

In this episode, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney enlists the cognitive muscle and steely reserve of Orbit Media Co-Founder and CMO Andy Crestodina, to analyze an article arguing that Wordpress is “A Risky Choice” for web hosting. The daredevil duo offers a series of sound counterpoints to the article, while acknowledging a few of its valid points.

In addition to rebuffing the content of the specific blog itself, the conversation also touches on a type of blog-writing that Priscilla and Andy feel is less than helpful.

Priscilla says, “I feel very committed to the integrity of our industry, and when I see something like this that’s just written out there that really in the end looks like clickbait to me, it’s a little upsetting. So I feel like it’s our duty to come back and say, ‘No, this is not not quite right.’ Just because it got published, does not mean that it’s true.”

Andy agrees about this concern, because it reiterates biases: “We all have built-in to our brains the confirmation bias - when you come across an article that supports something you already believe, you tend to place more weight on it.”

Listen to the whole podcast to hear the shakedown on all five points listed in the original blog. If you want to see how blogging is actually supposed to work, by providing helpful information, check out the Orbit Media blog.

What do you think of when you hear the word “access?” Do you think of exclusive backstage tickets, a master key, or getting your foot in the door? In this episode, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney and Michael Roderick, host of the podcast “Access to Anyone,” discuss how access is less about sneaking in, and more about sharing interest.

Michael went from being a high school English teacher to a Broadway producer in under two years,  then started his journey toward establishing Small Pond Enterprises. From there, he launched his podcast and started sharing his strategies and mindsets, which include associative leverage, vertical threading and carrying bags of apples. This episode is also dedicated to all the acronym fans out there. Your moment, full of RAB and TAC, has finally come. Bask in the glory.

Travel. Exotic food. Cultural research. Obscure musical instruments. The areas of overlapping interest in a Venn diagram between Priscilla and Andrew Kuiler, founder and CEO of The Silk Initiative are so abundant that we might actually need a larger diagram.

In this episode, Priscilla and Andrew discuss how The Silk Initiative - brand insight, strategy and innovation firm - uses their specialized knowledge and custom research to provide detailed consulting for the international food and beverage industry.

Along the way, they also talk about travel, their favorite snack foods, and Andrew's favorite food cities - those include Myanmar, Israel, Melbourne, Toronto and New York City. Most importantly, they discuss their love of unconventional musical instruments - Priscilla's autoharp may not be quite as loud as Andrew's bagpipes, but the collective musical clout has effectively raised the bar for all future podcast guests.

[summary] =>

Blasting out of the gate with a Baader-Meinhof phenom moment, Priscilla and Jamin Brazil hit the ground running in this episode of Ponderings from the Perch.

Jamin, CEO of Happy Market Research podcast discusses his early love of market research methodology that led him to found Decipher, a market research software company, eventually selling the product to and becoming CEO of FocusVision.

Brazil currently wears many hats, but the art of podcasting is top among his discussion points. Priscilla and Jamin talk about the craft of storytelling, the singularity of passive consumption, and their upcoming presentations at IIeX Austin:

Jamin’s Presentation: 3 Ways You Can Leverage The Power of Podcasts

Priscilla’s Masterclass: Effective Content Strategies for Being Heard Above the Noise

Other topics of conversation included upcoming tech, incremental improvement, and why it’s okay to stop worrying about older, potentially embarrassing podcast episodes and embrace them as artifacts of progress.

Badass recommendations from this episode

• Jamin’s favorite recent podcast is with his mentor, Merrill Dubrow

• A podcast Jamin and Priscilla both love: Sima Vasa’s Data Gurus

• Priscilla’s mobile podcast rig includes a Zoom H4N Field Recorder and a pair of MOVO lapel mics (for if things get dicey!)

• Jamin’s re-reading the book Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces that Shape Our Decisions by Dan Ariely

[summary] =>

Despite the fact that LinkedIn predates almost all popular social networking sites (2003!!), there are still a lot of relatively savvy internet users who have no idea what the social business site is all about. Until now. Listen in as Priscilla and Ashley discuss common misconceptions, what the site is and is not designed for, and how to utilize the platform to facilitate authentic connections.

Priscilla - an undeniable LinkedIn whiz - gives special shoutouts to former podcast guest Tim Hughes for the innovative thoughts put forward in his book Social Selling, and to Adam Gray for the groundbreaking book Brilliant Social Media Business Strategy.

From there, Priscilla and Ashley talk shop with five actionable LinkedIn tips including best practices for endorsements, introductions, and articles. Check out the whole episode and stop telling people that LinkedIn is the social site of the jobless. Hurtful!

[summary] =>

“It can be easy to forget the motivation that ultimately all we’re here to do is to help people. And we help people by connecting supply and demand, as new opportunities emerge. So we work hard to fight against that. To remind everybody, every day: This is what we’re here to do. We’re here to help folks.” 

It’s impossible to overstate the impact that GreenBook Executive Director Leonard “Lenny” Murphy has had on the world of market research. In this episode, Priscilla talks to Lenny about some of the experiences that shaped his path, and the most exciting new developments in GreenBook and IIeX. One of those developments is the upcoming IIeX from April 23-25, which will be held in Austin for the first time ever. Leonard and Priscilla talk about what prompted the move, and hatch a plan to “Keep Austin Weird” during the event which is co-chaired by Priscilla and Will Leach.

Leonard discusses the vital role that content plays for GreenBook, how the agency shifted from a directory to a content creator, and eventually to a wide-scale content curator. He and Priscilla also talk about exciting new tech implementations, process innovation (Savio and Veriglif), and the validity of DIY market research.

Other topics include secret office codewords, wig-wearing birthday rules, comic books and Stranger Things. Check out the full episode for more!

[summary] =>

The last time Sima Vasa was on the podcast, it was for the Flock Stars WIRe miniseries. In this episode, she and Priscilla discuss how founding Infinity Squared Ventures allowed her to combine her knowledge of research with her entrepreneurial experience to help entrepreneurs scale for growth or for sale:

“Taking the emotion out of things and really looking at financials objectively, and saying, ‘okay, if I peel back the layers here, I have to be realistic in what I think I can sell this company for based on the financial story.’ And also historical, like - look, if you have a growth rate that’s amazingly, consistently, year over year just knocking it out of the park, I mean, there’s nuances to every scenario. But that’s kind of the base piece I think is really important for people to understand. I think the second thing is, If you’re going to exit, or even if you’re going to raise money, that management team has to be strong. Whenever you put money in, you want to know that there’s a team behind it that’s committed to executing against goals. And whether that’s a merger where you have an earnout, or if you’re actually just raising money to accelerate growth, that management team is so crucial.”

Sima will chair the upcoming Samplecon, a conference that brings together and celebrates the different parts of the data collection ecosystem. She says the event will have speakers on topics like blockchain and gamification, debates, and armadillo racing (yes, you read that).

Like Priscilla, Sima is also a podcast host (Data Gurus Podcast), and she and Priscilla share their favorite things about podcasting as well as catching up on favorite books, podcasts and apps.

"Research can be a very myopic type of business. If you’re in qual, you tend to be in a very narrow tunnel, and you don’t see how other people do stuff. And if you’re in the quantitative side, you have a structure of how you tend to write things. I think coming to these conferences and hearing people present and speak, you hear different perspectives. I have been blown away by the quality and insights that I’ve gotten from these speakers." - Susan Fader

Ponderings from the Perch doesn’t usually get squeakquel episodes. However, when we heard that our friend Pam Didner had a new book, we were like, “Look who’s invited to the podcast now,” and also kind of like, “I still know this is going to be a great podcast!”

For those who don’t know, Pam is a sales, marketing & communication consultant, two-time author, prolific blogger, and global marketing speaker. She was also a guest of Ponderings way back in episode 39. Pam’s latest book, “Effective Sales Enablement,” is written for marketers to foster collaborative sales and marketing efforts. This time around, Priscilla and Pam quickly got back in the habit, discussing authorship, public speaking, the perils of marketing silos, and what marketers can do to better support their sales teams.

It’s a truly bogus journey.

[summary] =>

Lawn darts. Robotic gutter cleaners. In-car coffee brewers. These are just a few things that have enjoyed more commercial success than Google+.

Google’s social networking endeavor seemed poised to make big waves… something about their $719 billion in market capital lent a bit of credibility to the effort that turned out to be an almost immediate cricket-fest. The recent announcement that they would be pulling the plug on the sleeping giant wasn’t a huge shock to most people, but it’s not without ramifications.

In this episode, Priscilla McKinney and Ashley Le Blanc do a quick once-over on the cause, effects, and potential side-effects of G+’s upcoming journey upon the pale horse.

RIP, Google+. You were the Jar Jar Binks of social networks. We made fun of you so much, we started to feel guilty about it. Goodnight, sweet prince.

[summary] =>

Ready for a dose of the truth? In this episode, Priscilla discusses “messy brilliance,” inspiring confidence, and the power of truth telling with Women for One founder Kelly McNelis.

Women for One is a global community that empowers women to find and embrace their own voices, inspiring the confidence needed for them to achieve their dreams. McNelis’s journey has seen not only the creation of this community, but also the launch of the Truth Teller Tour, a series of courses, and toolkits aimed at the same goal:

“I just wanted women to be able to share their stories and as soon as I  intended to do that, and created a container for women to submit their stories for free, and really get out their experiences to the world so they can feel more connected and other women can feel less alone when they read it, It’s just resonated with society.”

Her book, “Your Messy Brilliance: Seven Tools for the Perfectly Imperfect Woman,” is set to be featured in Entrepreneur Magazine and O Magazine this year. Check out the full podcast for more in-depth stories, and a lightning round with Priscilla!

As mentioned in the podcast, Kelly’s favorite bloggers are Kris Carr and Kelly Notares. Oh, and don't forget to check out the Women for One Podcast!

[summary] =>

EMAIL - an open line of communication between brand and buyer.

With this kind of direct contact, it makes sense that emails have remained a fundamental part of our marketing strategies for years. In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Priscilla hands the mic to Colton Harrington of Little Bird Marketing and he takes to the streets to interview everyday people about their email behaviors in a new segment we’re calling THE BIRD ON THE STREET.

Over the years, as people continued to receive more and more marketing emails, their behavior has shifted. As marketers, we keep adjusting our strategies to try and reflect these behaviors. But what are they?

Colton asks questions to uncover just that:

- “Is there a particular time of day you check you email most?”

- ”If an email uses your name in the subject line, is it creepy or more likely to make you open it?”

- “What’s the main reason you unsubscribe from emails?”

Learn more about how you can take your email strategy to the next level with our free resource, "9 Reasons People are Ignoring Your Emails."

Pretty much every business owner - either brick and mortar or online - understands that increased traffic doesn’t always equate to increased sales. In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Priscilla talks with Chris Dayley, a neuromarketer and A/B testing wizard with Disruptive Advertising, about the differences between search engine optimization and conversion rate optimization.

Dayley’s small testing and optimization startup, Dayley Conversion merged with Disruptive Advertising in 2016. He and Priscilla dive deep into the importance of asking the right questions, the differences between small and large business, and approaching potential clients with a mentality of abundance.

Bonus! Chris has put together a free A/B testing starter guide featuring recommended tools, first tests to try, and case studies that is available here!

Connect with Chris on Twitter, LinkedIn or Disruptive Advertising.

Just like our old pal T.S. Eliot said, "last year's words belong to last year's language, and next year's words await another voice."  In this episode, Momma Bird - Priscilla McKinney and Little Bird Content Marketing Specialist - Ashley Le Blanc talk about greeting the new year with a swift karate chop, and ditching all those bad marketing habits you might have picked up through the years.

Want a sneak peek? Here's the overview of the tips!

1. Stop selling so hard. Learn about Priscilla's Rule of 15, which lays out a balanced framework for social posting that integrates sales without being annoying.

2. Stop treating social media like an afterthought. Short form content is an art form unto itself, and shouldn't be approached haphazardly, or shoved off on the nearest administrative assistant.

3. Stop pretending that "content" equals "blogging." Google looks at more than just the blog to determine your site's authority - think video and audio - and expand your content landscape.

[ 3a. If it's not an important topic to your ideal client persona, stop blogging about it. Pull reports. Analyze the data. Adapt. ]

4. Stop keyword spamming. You can't just cram a keyword between every other word in a blog and expect to get results. It was never a good practice anyway, now it's bad form and completely ineffectual. Just stop please. For more blogging tips, tune-in to "Priscilla and Ashley Talk Turkey, Robots and Blogging."

[ 4a. Don't put all your eggs in the backlink basket. Internal links build a better network for authority. ]

5. Stop winging it. Make a plan, and hold your content accountable to your organization and your strategy.

This episode is not just brimming; it's overflowing with actionable tips you need to implement to get your 2019 marketing plan whipped into shape. Shape it up. Set it straight.

The WIRe miniseries has been nothing short of inspiring. In the final episode of this series, Priscilla interviews Brin Moore. In addition to being a partner at Trusted Talent, where she helps market research firms find the right talent for the right jobs, Brin has been an integral part of WIRe in San Francisco, heading up the biannual events in the Golden City.

In this episode, the two talk about the best parts of WIRe, the importance of local networking and the changing landscape of executive recruiting in conjunction with the market research and consumer insights industry:

“There’s a tremendous amount of talent out there. And there are amazing opportunities out there. The marketplace is just teeming with opportunities. And people are being very, very picky about what they want - they’re looking for the right fit. Both on the client side and the researcher. They’re looking for the right culture fit, lifestyle fit, and expertise fit. They’re being very diligent about, ‘What is the position, what is it that you want us to do, and is it really a good fit for me?’ Which is really exciting, because people are putting a lot of thought into where they’re going next.”

“Reality may not be the best of all possible worlds, but it’s still the only place where you can get a decent steak.” - Woody Allen

In this episode, Priscilla McKinney talks with Charlie Rosenbury, founder and president of Self Interactive, a Springfield, MO based software development company specializing in virtual (V) and augmented (A) reality experiences. In addition to discussing the differences between VR and MR, Priscilla and Charlie talk about the future and present of this technology and how it can, when properly utilized, present a truly creative solution to a wide variety of problems. Learn about the difference between three and six degrees of freedom, the possible applications of Snapchat filters, meatball machines, and that time Priscilla’s brain went swimming with whales.

In addition to being the president of Self Interactive, Rosenbury is also a co-founder of Springfield Creatives.

[summary] =>

Owning a business is hard work, but learning when it’s time to let it go can be even harder. For Dianne, choosing to sell 80% of her business was a difficult, but necessary to propel her and her company forward. In this episode of the Flock Stars WIRe Miniseries, Priscilla is joined by Dianne Gardiner – CEO of Bastion Latitude.

“My journey started over 10 years ago when I took the leap of faith and actually started my own research business called Latitude Insights.”

Widely credited as being a leader in online community research in Australia, Dianne's passion for pragmatic insight runs deep. She established Latitude Insights over 10 years ago, joining the Bastion Collective in 2016, and today she heads up an international team of research experts.

“Change is hard for anyone, but unless we lean into it, we aren’t going to become better people.”

Dianne and Priscilla’s conversation is packed full of insights on owning your own business, mentorship and learning when its time to let go.

Traveling the furthest, Dianne came from Melbourne to participate in the WIRexec Leadership Summit. However, for Dianne, it was all worth it. “It was that moment where I found my tribe.” Want to know more about WIRe? Click here for more information about becoming a WIRe member for FREE.

[summary] =>

Perceptions of the past and future, in relation to marketing, are often conflicting. Some people dread the future and its inevitable robo-takeover, while clinging to oft-antiquated traditions. Others are gung-ho over the latest bells and whistles, trend-hopping from new thing to new thing. In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Priscilla talks with Ray Poynter about how we fit in the still-developing timeline of market research.

As Ray says, there's room for both enthusiasm for the future and a retention of traditional values:

"Probably my niche in the market is that I’m a very cynical lover of the new. So, yes, I do like new things, but I’m not easily swayed.  I’ve got a very good grounding in the traditional aspects of applying the science; applying methodology and seeing where things fit. I’m much more interested in how they work than how shiny they are."

Ray is the founder of NewMR, author of "The Handbook of Online and Social Media Research," and "The Handbook of Mobile Market Research," and the editor of ESOMAR's book "Answers to Contemporary Market Research Questions." He's also a prolific writer with 40 years of expertise in market research and innovation. Priscilla and Ray discuss changes in insights, legitimacy of new innovation, and what's on the horizon for the future of market research.

With over two decades of experience in the field, Nancy provides a global voice to clients across several industries. Working with major corporations, Nancy has launched new projects and websites and overseen translations for qualitative and quantitative marketing research, technical copy, advertising and legal content.

Starting as a member of WIRe, Nancy has now attended the WIRexec Leadership Summit multiple times. “I just love the way that Kristin has structured it– to make it about the head and the heart, the business and the personal.

[summary] =>

Join Priscilla and workplace futurist Marti Konstant as they delve into the vibrant world of Agile! Though traditionally thought of as a methodology for software development, Marti first worked on applying the methods to the marketing process, and eventually to individual career management. The result was her book, Activate Your Agile Career: How Responding to Change Will Inspire Your Life’s Work. It also led to the foundation of the Agile Careerist Project.

In this episode, Priscilla and Marti tackle tricky topics like:

• How to maintain team buy-in

• Individual career growth

• How to move away from siloing and hierarchical job structures

• The importance of ongoing learning

• And more!

Put simply, “If you’ve got more skills and knowledge in part of what is the future of marketing, you’re going to be more in demand and more needed in the future.”

This is the “Duty Now for the Future” that Devo told us about. Check the episode out for more details!

[summary] =>

Regular or decaf coffee? Aisle or window seat? Fries or tots…or curly fries? For most of us, these are just a few of the hundreds of decisions we make every day without conducting a cost-benefit analysis. We make these choices intuitively, using some magical portion of our brain/consciousness that’s able to just *snap* make decisions immediately. In this episode, Priscilla talks with Will Leach, founder of Trigger Point Design, a leading behavioral research and design consultancy. Trigger Point helps brands understand how to align their designs with the reality of how people actually make decisions - or, “match marketing toward behavior.”

Will is also the author of “Marketing to Mindstates,” a brilliant guide that demystifies these non-conscious filters and illustrates ways to create messages that activate emotional engagement. He and Priscilla discuss the highlights and challenges of authorship, and how the information in the book can be applied to a whole variety of situations.

Grappling hooks? Check. Ski masks? Affirmative. Lookout van in the parking lot? Yep! Get ready, because in this episode, Priscilla and Matt Koenig, Owner and Chief Developer at MK Web Development, are hacking into the mainframe of web development knowledge. In this heretofore uncompromised maximum security vault of information, questions are everywhere, and answers are like unto shadows. 

Priscilla and Matt get straight to the heart of things, answering tough questions like:

Why the heck is my site so slow?What questions should I ask of a hosting service?What plugins should I be running on my Wordpress site?And more!

Matt offers practical and helpful advice on database optimization, firewalls, backups, and image size, and Priscilla recounts the tale of the mysteriously windy website.

What does it mean to be in the front seat of a female-driven market research company? In this episode of the Flock Stars WIRe Miniseries, Priscilla interviews Katrina Noelle of KNow Research and Scoot Insights.

“We landed on ‘female-driven’ because that is who is behind the wheel of our team. It’s come out of a personal history, for me, of endorsing and supporting women in the research industry because that’s how I’ve ended up where I am.”

Katrina Noelle is a self-proclaimed “time-zone agnostic” and president of KNow Research. For over 15 years, KNow Research has been designing custom qualitative research design for clients by combining methodologies from traditional in-person research with online and mobile approaches. To serve even more qualitative research needs, Katrina co-founded Scoot Insights, an agile qualitative methodology provider.

To describe her companies, Katrina regularly uses the terms “boots on the ground” and “front lines.” Why? Because her team does it all. From meeting with clients to collecting actual data, Katrina has excelled in building a team of people passionate about research and storytelling.

As a WIRexec member, Katrina has attended the WIRexec Summit for two years. “This year I was really able to set some goals of things I want to accomplish in the next year. I used the time to figure out how I’m going to achieve those goals alongside people who are doing the same thing.” For more insights on women in leadership, the future of the market research industry and learning to “be present,” listen to the episode!

“To blog or not to blog?” A question you’ve probably asked yourself a time or two as a business owner. So what’s the answer? In this episode of the Little Bird Marketing company podcast, Momma Bird - Priscilla McKinney and Content Marketing Specialist - Ashley Le Blanc explore the benefits and complexity of blogging.

“Blogging - it's been around for a while now and seems like it might just be something that anyone can do, but we're here to say, maybe not everyone should be doing it, and if you are doing it, maybe you should have a strategy.”

Here’s the reality - the internet is exploding with content. There are millions of articles posted daily and you can't beat it by posting more. That's right— there's no point in adding clutter. To see ROI on your blogs, you need to focus on the quality of your content and how well you’re answering the questions of your ideal customer.

“This is a bigger question than just writing words that go on your website. It's about reaching your ideal client. Not just any client, not just any customer, but your ideal customer.”

Welcome to Flock Stars! These bite-size episodes feature the movers and shakers in marketing, advertising and surrounding industries. Our first season is all about Women In Research and each minisode will feature an inspiring woman who attended the 2018 WIRexec Leadership Summit. In this first episode, Priscilla McKinney interviews Kristin Luck– Ponderings from the Perch vet, supporter of women and Founder of WIRe.

“There’s so much direction in what we need to change to be successful, versus really stepping into understanding what our strengths are as women and as business leaders.”

Kristin is a serial entrepreneur and a globetrotting, internationally recognized keynote speaker on marketing measurement. She’s a futurist and growth hacking expert, specializing in nontraditional marketing and branding strategies. In 2007, Kristin was inspired to start WIRe after connecting with 50 women in the market research industry over drinks. Since that first cocktail mixer, WIRe has grown to become a global not-for-profit organization with 24 events worldwide in 2018.

WIRe is completely free to join. Kristin explains, “We don’t want a membership fee to be a barrier to folks to having access to our programming and services.” Want to know more about WIRE? Click here for more information about becoming a WIRE member.

[summary] =>

When’s the last time you practiced the art of being selfish? Before you tell on us for using the “s-word,” let us explain. We’re talking about carving out time for self-exploration and inquiry. This week on the Little Bird Marketing company podcast, we brought in an expert on the journey to finding your authentic self.

In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Priscilla McKinney is joined by Sarah Marshank - entrepreneur and author. Sarah started Selfistry, a comprehensive integrative educational system for mastering the art of being human. She’s also the author of the “Being Selfish: My Journey for Escort to Monk to Grandmother.” Based in the SF Bay Area, Sarah teaches and speaks internationally, offers online courses, consults with corporate clients and works one-on-one with individuals.

Sarah’s inspiring conversation with Priscilla is filled with questions like, “How do we become the author of our own life?” and important insights like, “There is nothing wrong with continuing to grow ourselves.”

If you’re on a journey to self-discovery or in the process of crafting an authentic marketing strategy, this conversation will give you the motivation and encouragement you need to move forward.

In observation of National Take Your Kid To Work Day, Priscilla and Beck McKinney co-host a special edition of Ponderings from the Perch. In doing so, they learn more about each other, and verily, more about themselves in the process.

Beck has prepared a special pop quiz full of insightful questions for Priscilla about entrepreneurship, motivators, goals, and the importance of the silence during the Masters. Priscilla turns the tables back on Beck to find out why he thinks the office is slightly boring, and which of the Peeps is the most hilarious (spoiler: it’s Kahlief).

Join a fun-filled podcast with design wiz Simon Dunn, from Keen As Mustard Marketing, as he and Priscilla discuss holistic marketing strategy methods, data visualization, and the importance of industry networking.

Simon, with Keen as Mustard, has been finding new ways for agencies to understand research and insights for the past ten years, with an indisputable understanding of the complexities of the field.

“You don’t just do a new brand, or launch a new website, sit back and wait for the work to come in. It’s all about actually doing all of those things, joining them up, having a plan - segmentations - targeting. It’s a whole joined-up web of stuff that you’re doing - and you do need to be doing all of them. And for quite a long time!”

In addition to providing marketing research PR and media relations, Keen as Mustard also helped develop Viz-Fest, an annual 4-day webinar full of market research insights.

While the discussion is rife with extremely serious industry discussion, Simon and Priscilla find time to reminisce about Simon’s classiness, laugh about rebranding difficulties, and share a moment of sadness about Priscilla’s missed opportunity for Scotch eggs.

While you’re enjoying the episode, be sure to connect with Simon on LinkedIn, register for Viz-Fest, and give Ponderings from the Perch a swell review on iTunes!

Get your cup of cocoa, sit back in front of a roaring fire (either in the fireplace, or the YouTube looped video if you are a millennial) and soak in the entertainment, interviews, original music and general nonsense as you break through your deepest desire to know the "peeps" more intimately (except for Ryan). 

Do you love us yet? All we want for Christmas is a 5-star iTunes rating from...you!

Because we love you, here are all of the links to help you through the maze of wonderment and autoharp grandeur:

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she chats with her long-time friend, Tony D'Amato, Senior Sponsorship & Experiential Marketing Leader with 3M's auto care business development unit. If you think that's quite a title wait until you hear about his travel schedule! 

Serving together on the board of Enlace for more than a decade, they bonded over their shared passion for poverty alleviation and community transformation in El Salvador. They've laughed, they've cried over many years whilst traveling the Pan American Highway. 

Tony works in the industrial auto care aftermarket division at 3M driving deeper customer experience with the brand throughout the country and across their entire footprint. He speaks specifically about his experience working with digital and physical influencers and how that is nuanced in his market due based on the generational differences. 

As an experienced event marketing expert he leads a team to personally activate at over 75 events per year. On top of the logistics that entails, they additionally activate sponsorship of 3,000 to 4,000 unique car shows per year. With life moving so fast, Tony keeps his team focused on the root of the relational experience at each event knowing that their goal is always to build brand confidence through education. 

He offers expertise around these pressing questions: 

How can brands drive consumer loyalty through industry influencers? 

Just how excited do you get about car wax? 

How important are gift baskets? (ok, this is just an inside joke)

Who really is a celebrity? 

Do you remember when we sent paper invitations?

Don't you just love a great balloon arch?

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she chats with Tim Hughes, co-founder of Digital Leadership Associates and author of best-selling book, Social Selling - Techniques to Influence Buyers and Changemakers. They discuss a new mindset for social selling and effective ways to get fast responses selling by using social. The transformation he offers is not just about Social Selling, but providing a complete new way of working for sales and marketing teams. He also elaborates on the difference between buyers and changemakers.

The book is relevant because of the reality that the digital landscape has changed buyers' habits. It is also increasingly difficult to reach them early enough in their decision-making processes. Additionally, developing relationships with decision makers through social networks has become a critical skill for the modern selling professional.

Tim discusses how he was getting tired about the narrative surrounding social in relation to lead generation and practical sales growth. Over time, he felt the discussion about social selling had gone backwards. Once the first excitement wore off for some people, they left social media without really understanding what a powerful tool it is when used correctly. He offers expertise around these pressing questions:

How do you increase your influence online?

How do you stop wasting time online?

How do you successfully build a community online?

How do you develop a system to use technology to your advantage and shorten the sales cycle?

How do you identify changemakers and deal with them successfully?

In this episode you not only get great advice about proper use of social media for business, but you'll discover where to get a proper drink in London as well. Suffice to say, they both recommend lunch at The Savoy.

You can hear Priscilla's thought before she left for London where she and Tim met on our episode called Priscilla Goes to London Town.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she interviews Paul Connor of Emotive Analytics. Group. Together they consider the deeper human feelings behind our actions and how market research can handle measuring these emotional associations. This podcast is a great follow up to Priscilla Looks at Consumer Relationships with Brands, where Priscilla and Dan discussed these sometimes hidden forces which compel us toward or against a brand. In this episode, Paul reveals how marketers can measure for this qualitative reaction, quantitatively. 

A consumer researcher since 1982, Paul founded Emotive Analytics in 2004 after seeing that traditional consumer research was lacking a component to reveal WHY people do what they do. These deeply sub-conscious or even non-conscious emotional dynamics need to be understood to deliver the whole truth of insights about brands and their products or services. 

Paul used psychology and neuroscience to assess the role of emotions in our processing of preference, dislike and a myriad of other reactions as we make seconds in micro seconds. Emotive Analytics' proprietary DIY program, IEPro You, helps companies measure a variety of explicit and implicit responses to enhance market research efforts. 

Paul is a prolific blogger and has been published in Quirk's QRCA News, NMSBA's Insights, and Marketing News. He is a frequent speaker in the industry and will be speaking again at IlexNA, this year in Atlanta on June 13th.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she interviews Ahava Liebtag of Aha Media Group. They discuss Priscilla's favorite topic, the "stunning discomfort of entrepreneurship". The hard work and passion for great writing is still driving both of them to lead creative teams. 

In terms of content that responds to the current needs of clients, Ahava talks about how consumers are actually zigging and zagging throughout their thought their interactions with brands. Because of the multiple ways people interact with content, she underlines the importance of starting with the end in mind before ever writing a word. Her group builds the user experience using layers of multiple questions because consumers don't interact with content in a linear fashion. They laugh about the notion that people are rational and simply plan accordingly. 

Ahava shares her entrepreneurial story about how she started the now powerful Aha Media Group. This boutique content consultancy delivers marketing strategy and digital communications solutions including web writing and content development.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she interviews Greg Shugar, serial entrepreneur and prolific writer. He, along with his wife Gina started Tie Bar in 2004 in true entrepreneurial fashion. They built the business from the ground up, starting alone in their basement with no employees. Over the next 9 years, they grew their brand and their business, employing 55 employees. Having sold the majority share to a private equity firm in 2013, Greg sheds a little light on his newest venture, Thread Experiment, the only brand in the world dedicated to the design of masculine bedding. 

They discuss what it truly means to disrupt the market and the opportunities that are out there when you develop the entrepreneurial mindset. Believe it or not, there was a day when going directly to e-commerce was just not done. They revisit his journey discussing the difference between obstacles in 2008 as opposed to the challenges we face now in 2017. He shares some of their best wins and most hard-won lessons. 

Be sure to connect with Greg on LinkedIn here and get wow'd with the masculine bedding options at Thread Experiment. 

He also shares his favorite apps just to make it more fun!

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing along with Dan Leadbetter as they discuss consumer relationships with brands. What brands do you love? What brands do you hate? What brands do you love to hate? Interestingly many people don't consider that their lives are full of actual relationships with brands. They are tied into our family stories, our values, our conversations, daily routines and holiday traditions. 

No matter how much you think about it, we do develop actual relationship with brands throughout our lives. Priscilla reaches back to an older article she considers foundational regarding brand relationships and consumer behavior. This article can be found here: http://bit.ly/consumerrelationships if you want to go deeper. 

Priscilla loves Roku. 

Dan loves Zildjian. 

Also, in this episode they do not explain jazz. If you don't get it on your own, there's really nothing they can do. 

Any chance you feel like doing your good deed for the day and giving a 5 star review of this show on iTunes?

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with author, prolific writer and marketing guru, Mitch Joel. As the President of Mirum, a global digital marketing agency operating in close to 20 countries, he has earned the right to direct huge brands as they navigate digital marketing. He talks openly about how the marketing industry must come to grips with how consumers adopt quickly to technology while agencies and brands tend to lag behind. 

Since Mitch is a prolific speaker to the likes of LEGO, Wal-Mart, Starbucks, Twitter, Oracle, Nestle, Procter and Gamble, Unilever and more, his ideas have been put to the test. He breaks down complex strategies by focusing on three points on his "bull’s-eye" approach. Listen in for more of his musings on the nuance between the art and science of marketing. 

More than anything, Mitch believes in his work as craft and labors under the conviction that he simply wants to create things that are deeply meaningful to him. He writes, and challenges us to live our own truth as it rings true to us regardless of how it is received. In that way, he prefers the more creative approach to the absolute embrace of formulaic success. 

Follow Mitch's blog and be sure to subscribe to his fantastic podcast, Six Pixels of Separation.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing along with Dan Leadbetter as they celebrate her St. Patty's Day birthday. As they are fellow-holiday birthday peeps (Dan having debuted on New Year's Eve) they talk about the joys and perils of a holiday birthday. What they can't wrap their minds around is the reality of actual St. Patrick's Day Birthday cards for sale. Seriously, individualized cards celebrating your birthday falling on this holiday. Hmmmm....

To celebrate, Dan delivers another pop quiz in which Priscilla rants a bit about marketing pet peeves. Seeing as it is her birthday, and will be wearing a green wig all day, he lets her vent. Included in those questions are also some reflections on entrepreneurship and of course, her memory of the top three birthday presents she's ever received. 

They also wrap up highlights from her trip to London and she offers some travel and networking tips. 

Was this supposed to be a marketing podcast? You'd better complain to the authorities! But, if you loved it and were wondering what to get her for her birthday, **SPOILER ALERT** she'd like a 5 star review of this show on iTunes.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing and Robin Barr, Chief Inspiration Officer at Unleash Your Brilliance in this episode. As a Life Coach Robin works with high performing executives who feel as if they are "dying at their desks". She addresses the true suffering many experience when they are out of alignment with their own values and are frustrated with their own inability to alter behaviors or outcomes they so strongly desire to change. 

They discuss the role of stress in modern life (especially how that shows up for entrepreneurs) and the different ways males and females tend to deal with this foundational issue. Along with our normal stress, she discusses how we layer habits of "checking out" on top by either living more in the past, or fixating on the future. Robin is passionate about helping people expand and integrate their emotions and stay present in order to create a life they truly love regardless of thes stress they feel. Together they debunk popular misconceptions about Life Coaching as an industry.  

Robin shares how she incorporates brain science to help stressed-out, hard-working professionals learn to live authentic, purpose-driven lives they love. This requires dismantling well-worn neuro pathways in your brain in order to reconfigure more positive ways of staying with and walking through our emotions. They explore how a Life Coach helps build capacity to stay with such difficult emotions. Robin offers a few simple techniques to incorporate into our every day lives, helping us bring our best self to work, to our families, and increase our own personal well being. 

Just know that Priscilla's business is definitely NOT a strong, muscular, winged pegasus (you'll have to listen in for that inside joke). She is still, however, building her capacity to walk through what she calls the "stunning discomfort of entrepreneurship."

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing along with Dan Leadbetter as they discuss her upcoming speaking engagement in London. As she heads out to speak to marketing researchers about the future of social media she focuses on what she continues to do to disrupt the market. 

She discusses how her book of business differs from most other agency owners she meets. Any given day the team could be working content about turbo engines, chiropractic care, sheet metal or autism solutions, just to name a few. This industry diversity requires her team to stay focused on process at all times. She also gets pretty vulnerable about how she has garnered a high rate of repeat customers. Priscilla believes this is because she has consistently respected client's marketing budgets and treated their money like her own. 

They also discuss some business development issues. She gets honest about how hard it is to strike a balance between dividing her time marketing her own company and completing work for clients. Every small agency should be living in the terror of that daily decision, in her humble opinion. This involves hard conversations and daily refocusing. These powerful conversations led the Little Bird Marketing team to assess their business by understanding where their talents, services and products fall into the following five buckets:

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing and Liz Van Patten, an accomplished qualitative researcher. Her experience discovering marketing insights for companies, advertising agencies, governments and industry groups for more than 25 years has honed her skills in marketing research. They discuss the difference between qualitative and qualitative research and how they fit into concept testing/development, understanding path-to-purchase and decision-making, new product development, positioning development, communications research, and social media listening. 

As an early adopter of online qualitative research methods, Liz is an acknowledged expert in the use of asynchronous approaches such as online discussion forums, insight communities, in-depth interviews, online diaries, mobile interviews, and as well as real-time methods including webcam and text based online focus groups.

Liz's journey has run the gamut from handling focus groups with six year olds, to examining the effectiveness of copy on national brand campaigns. They discuss some of the more interesting branding and packaging work. They discuss the role of marketing research to truly deliver to brands meaningful discoveries and even get nitty gritty into some tools such as projective techniques to truly find out what people think about brands, services, projects, logos and more. They also discuss the blocks small companies have with accessing qualitative research along with the dangers of DIY models for consumer surveys.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing and Michael Brenner, CEO of Marketing Insider Group. Michael is a sought-after keynote speaker on Leadership, Culture, and Marketing. He is the co-author of best selling book The Content Formula.

As a recognized Top CMO Influencer, B2B Marketer, Content Marketer, and Social Media Marketer, Michael delivers insight into the content marketing industry. They discuss what it means to truly start a conversation with your brand followers and bring authenticity to marketing efforts across the board. They go deeper into the disruption that can happen when agencies and clients walk away from a simplified attempt to "just sell more" and instead create something more meaningful for better marketing. But even for those who have moved into the content marketing spaces he keenly points out that "Marketing with content is not the same as content marketing." They discuss the role of empathy in marketing as Michael alludes to this reckoning that is coming for the marketing industry which will hopefully, cut the fluff and look for better alternatives to simply buying clicks. Follow Michael on Twitter @BrennerMichael.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing and her special guest, Bernie Borges, CEO of Find and Convert, a content marketing agency serving B2B clients across the U.S. He is the author of Marketing 2.0, one of the first 50 books written on social media strategy. He can be found pontificating on his expertise on his podcast called Social Business Engine which can be found at http://www.socialbusinessengine.com/podcasts/. In this episode they discuss the nuance and expertise that B2B marketing efforts require including technical integrations and closed loop sales reporting. Professional businesses need to establish that professional legitimacy from the first client interaction and yet strike a very personal and human balance in the mix. As experienced B2B marketers they discuss tips and tricks to do just that. As they both lead a HubSpot certified agency they also discuss the power of fully integrated marketing dashboards. Regardless of the sophistication of integration and automation, however, they both agree that curating content with the higher purpose of being helpful to people reaps the best rewards regardless of your choice of dashboard.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing and her special guest, Tony Cheevers. With 20 plus years experience working in sales and marketing leadership roles with global brands like Virgin, KLM, Schlumberger and the U.S. Postal Service. They talk about the reality that with social media and more sophisticated marketing dashboards, companies are getting "insights" and data about their clients. But even with this access to what only large companies could see before many companies still don't know what to DO with this information. They discuss the real difference that can be made when companies, even small companies let a professional handle their business challenges like properly formatting a customer survey, finding the right people for a focus group and so much more.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing along with Dan Leadbetter as they ponder the modern tragedy that is the ubiquitous TO-DO LIST. As the CEO of three companies, she has learned some ways to be freakishly productive. As her reality doesn't include simply not being interrupted on a normal basis, she offers some insights about how to calendarize tasks, understand what is your "genius work", effectively delegate and maintain clarity about how to use her time wisely. She reflects on what she learned from watching her office burn to the ground and how she relies on her team to help achieve their goals. In the end, she focuses on to-do items and actions which are directly tied to actual goals. Wouldn't it be an amazing life without decision fatigue? Call us and tell us all about it. Otherwise, listen to this episode. Also, they AGAIN discuss the Shoji Tabuchi Show, which is one of their favorite topics.

Once they finish discussing Freddy Mercury, they move on with the quiz. He moves on to ask about her most satisfying moments in business which include some highs and some lows interestingly enough. They discuss fears and inspirations and much, much more. Original theme music by the illustrious Leighton Cordell.

It seems these days there is a consultant for every kind of expertise needed and in some ways it can seem frivolous until that day you NEED that expertise and someone truly delivers thoughts, tools and concepts that help you take your business or personal life to the next level much more efficiently. They ask questions about what kinds of expertise would be worth loads of money. They talk about consultant experiences that are worth the money and which ones seem like a waste of money. They celebrate Michael Bolton's whole collection. Also, bonus advice: Don't watch the movie Office Space with your mother. Original theme music by the illustrious Leighton Cordell.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing and Dan Leadbetter as they discuss brand positioning statements. As companies step out into the market they seem to ask questions about how to position themselves, but as older companies morph over time they sometimes fail to come back to reviewing their brand positioning statement even as their company has completely changed and the people who they serve has changed. They grapple with the dilemma of how you figure out how you be totally true to the brand and WHERE a brand fits in the market. They discuss how the process truly help you understand who you BEST serve. They take an amazing digression into completely reviewing the Shoji Tabuchi Show playing in Branson, Missouri. Just for reference, Shoji Tabuchi is a Japanese American country music fiddler and singer who currently performs at his theater, The Shoji Tabuchi Theatre, in Branson, Missouri. Go figure.

Join Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing and Dan Leadbetter as they discuss the state of marketing. Every once in awhile someone will comment to me that they believe social media to be dead. On the contrary, it is alive and kicking. What seems to be more the issue is HOW people are using social media and WHY marketers are using it. This episode really focuses on the changes that are here to stay because of the major shift in the advertising world which is the dominance of the end-user. Gone are the days of prime time TV and big media buys in the local newspaper for many businesses. People are tuning out from content that interrupts and want their content when they want it, where they want it and on the device of their choosing. It is not that traditional media buys are dead, but that marketers must adapt. But simply adapting to a new medium or channel like Facebook is not enough. Companies who advertise there must still understand they are building their kingdom on leased land. Content marketing instead offers to build a platform where companies can engage with their clients in meaningful ways to garner direct connection to them. With effective email list building companies can choose whatever medium of the moment, but can still grow their list with lead generating efforts. In accordance with the prophecy, this leads to sales automation and lead nurturing, which this Momma Bird loves to talk about. And, as they say in the business, the original theme music by Chris Stewart.

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Dan Leadbetter about the importance of online reviews. She most certainly was not going to go to Medieval Times without doing her research. After Yelp!, Trip Advisor and Facebook reviews she decided she would probably live through the experience and not hate it - as long as Borat does not show up. But what can be said about online reviews and ratings. Do they provide instant legitimacy? Do they sway the potential client? Do they affect SEO rankings? How important are 3rd party ratings and personally written reviews? They discuss this, along with winning strategies business owners and marketing managers should consider to shore up the love from loyal clients. They also discuss how to handle negative ratings and keep focused on social proof that your company truly is amazing. She also gives a free Google Review instruction page which companies can send to their clients to request these valuable reviews at http://info.littlebirdmarketing.com/review-my-business-on-google-3298493802.

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Dan Leadbetter about her ideal client. First of all they are "better than your average bear" but their marketing is not telling the truth. Her team is looking for clients who are great at what they do, but their marketing hasn't caught up yet and the peeps want to make up the gap. Dan knows she loves her job, but she shares the three things that she is thinking about when arriving to work each morning. It is what also makes Little Bird Marketing also be "better than your average bear." They discuss mules at length and agree that they don't need any more conversation starters.

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Dan Leadbetter about how she keeps her mojo - even through a very demanding schedule and the pressure of growth. She talks about paying attention to your life and how you carve out a great balance by simply becoming awake and alive to what inspires you and what truly feeds you. She challenges listeners to think about separating out what makes you money and what makes you happy and making sure you know the difference. She starts her day with thinking about how she wants to feel in the end, and lets that be her guide. Also, in this episode Dan discovers that Oprah is no longer on TV.

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Dan Leadbetter about the do's and dont's for trade shows. Especially after the 2008 downturn in the economy many companies trimmed the budget and cut out trade shows. That was much to Priscilla's liking in what seems like the wasted time and effort at most trade shows. But trade shows done correctly can be AMAZING. Done poorly they are a TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY. She challenges the listeners to not only think about the desired outcomes, but in fact, lining out specific goals for the show - otherwise don't go! Original theme music by Chris Stewart.

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Brett Baker of Trustpoint Management. As her sales coach, he has brought infinite wisdom and deep personal growth at a critical time in her entrepreneurial journey. They talk about bringing your sales process in alignment with your values and how to respect yourself and others when faced with other personalities and methods for making decisions. They discuss the worst podcast episode ever http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/513/129-cars in which the traditional sales management approach literally makes your skin crawl. Brett's Sandler training is imperative to understanding why sales people chase their own tails and how you can cut through the bull and actually have real conversations you can count as a pipeline. They also discuss voicemail jail and email jail and why people insist on engaging in behaviors that don't help them meet their goals. If you are looking for solid, traditional, old-school sales training you should definitely steer clear of Brett Baker at Trustpoint Management. His fresh approach is welcome at Little Bird Marketing. His website is http://www.trustpoint.sandler.com/ and check him out on LinkedIn here https://www.linkedin.com/in/brettbaker66. Original theme music by Chris Stewart.

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Dan Leadbetter about the meaning of generational differences. Popular business culture demands that management change their practices to accommodate specific generations, but Priscilla's entrepreneurial experience has left her to believe she should do no such thing. They discuss The Economist's article "Myths about Millennials" http://www.economist.com/news/business/21660110-businesses-should-beware-dubious-generalisations-about-younger-workers-myths-about which vindicates Priscilla's stance that most of the millennial touchstones are a myth. They discuss funny ironies found in the millennial generation and Billie Joel might have said it best when he sang, "You can't dress trashy 'til you spend lots of money."

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Dan Leadbetter about how the importance of asking for what you need. Key ingredient of asking for what you need is first knowing what you need.

Perhaps that comes from a lack of understanding profit, or simply a lack of understanding the audience.

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing as she interviews Chris Stewart, who you might know as the musician behind the Ponderings from the Perch soundtrack. Priscilla has known Chris for more than two decades and has worked with him on multiple music projects for clients. They dive into the difficulty of marketing yourself as an artist, and making something as subjective as music for commercial purposes. They tried to keep the Spinal Tap references to a minimum but agree that D minor is truly the saddest of all keys. The best part is that after the podcast he and two other friends touring the Midwest performed an office party right at Little Bird Marketing. Original theme music by Chris Stewart.

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird here at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Dan Leadbetter about art and collecting art. Priscilla discusses difficult conversations she has in her job every day as she critiques work of multiple graphic artists. She explains how a culture which protects people's self-worth creates an environment where they can be vulnerable, fail multiple times, learn from mistakes, grow as a designer and ultimately succeed in producing their very best work. She holds fast to her belief "we will succeed or fail in groups," which provides the underlying basis for her company culture. As an award-winning agency, they feel the pressure to continue to produce amazing work, and yet it is a semi-subjective industry. She explains how they work as a team to push each other in problem solving, process and time management and how often she feels like Heidi Klum. Auf Wiedersehen!

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird here at Little Bird Marketing as she has a morning conversation with fellow globetrotter, Helene Sheeler-Johnson. As they both work marketing and PR angles in the same small town in the Midwest they exchange several knowing glances. Yet they continue to work day in and day out to bring the marketing and PR aspects of their jobs into the same strategy. With Helene's massive experience with companies like Midway, Nike, Nestle and more, she gives real-world examples of the debacle that ensues when Marketing and PR Departments don't communicate. Although they discuss Helene's husband's Neanderthal origins, Helene also sheds light on tips for getting free press to advance strategic marketing goals. With a background in journalism, she talks about the full-court press that must be done to convince someone in the news to pick up your story. They end with a fun plug for a new product Helene has brought to market of her own creation, Back to Beauty Anti-Wrinkle Head Cradle which is available on Amazon. They revel in the great shape their face and necks will be in 20 years time. Original theme music by Chris Stewart.

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird here at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with the illustrious Jeff Cannata. As fellow podcasters they explore the idea that revealing the inner-workings of making a podcast might indeed be like making sausage - a bit messy, but worth it all in the end. First and foremost she is a huge fan of WE HAVE CONCERNS podcast which he co-writes and hosts with Anthony Carboni. They discuss the process of starting a podcast, naming conventions for episodes, consistency and technical issues. Jeff also sheds light on the Patreon model and the selection of social media they use for their show. More importantly, they discuss the importance of being authentic. Jeff's expertise in developing epic content, building an audience, managing growth and mastering the dad jokes should not be missed!

Join Priscilla McKinney, Momma Bird here at Little Bird Marketing as she talks with Dan Leadbetter the most fascinating case of complete and utter faking. Priscilla reaches back to the story of the sign language interpreter for the Nelson Mandela memorial service and discusses, with incredulity, the absolute audacity some people have and the painful experience that is watching fakers try to spin their story. They discuss the cost on businesses when they hire a faker and the on-going costs if they are not let go.
