Ian:

Hello.

Ian:

Hello.

Ian:

Hello.

Ian:

this is a quick bonus episode of the confident live marketing podcast.

Ian:

I'm Ian Anderson Gray and this basically going to be showing a few

Ian:

announcements And a bit of housekeeping.

Ian:

So do stick around first of all, though If you are listening to this, it's likely

Ian:

that you are subscribed to this podcast and that's because i'm not publishing

Ian:

this on my blog Or announcing it anywhere.

Ian:

This is just in my normal podcast feed So if it's popped up on your feed and

Ian:

you've listened to it Thank you so much that you have subscribed to my podcast.

Ian:

It really means so much to me You the support that I've had over the

Ian:

last five years, because that is how long I've been doing this podcast.

Ian:

It's been for over five years.

Ian:

It was May, 2019 when I first did this launch, this podcast, and

Ian:

I've had well over 200 episodes.

Ian:

we're up to about 225, but actually there's been quite

Ian:

a few bonus episodes as well.

Ian:

And yeah, for the last six months, all the episodes have

Ian:

been focused on studio setups.

Ian:

and yeah, we've been going behind the scenes of top creators,

Ian:

entrepreneurs, and business owners to look at their studio setups.

Ian:

And it's been a lot of fun.

Ian:

I hope you've really enjoyed that.

Ian:

it's always good to have a little bit of a nosy and see what other people

Ian:

are doing and to get inspiration, but now it's time for a new season.

Ian:

And I've already got 13 episodes recorded.

Ian:

and we're focusing on.

Ian:

Confidence and communication.

Ian:

We're going on a confidence and communication journey of a special

Ian:

guest on each episode So if you want to learn how to communicate better

Ian:

and to be more confident in front of the camera This is the season for you.

Ian:

But after that, it's definitely time to move on to something new

Ian:

and It's going to be the end of the confident live marketing podcast,

Ian:

at least in at least how we know it.

Ian:

I think it's time for a change and I've shared so much about

Ian:

live video confidence, tech and marketing over the past five years.

Ian:

So what does that mean?

Ian:

There's certainly going to be a name change, but it might

Ian:

also be a totally new podcast.

Ian:

I'll let you know, but I'd love to hear from you.

Ian:

What would you like to hear from me?

Ian:

What would you like me to talk about?

Ian:

What would you like this podcast to be?

Ian:

Are you sad that we're changing it, potentially ending it?

Ian:

Send me an email to ian at iag.

Ian:

me, that's ian at iag.

Ian:

me, or just message me on any of the socials.

Ian:

I'd love to hear what you think about that.

Ian:

But I'm very excited about, the future and some new ideas.

Ian:

I'm already thinking about a new podcast.

Ian:

I'll be announcing that very, soon.

Ian:

So whether the Confident Line Marketing podcast becomes this new

Ian:

podcast or whether I just focus on this other one, I don't know yet.

Ian:

We'll see.

Ian:

As you might already know, though, I had did launch another

Ian:

podcast earlier this year.

Ian:

It's completely different to this one.

Ian:

I did talk about the subjects a few times on this podcast, but it

Ian:

just didn't seem the right fit.

Ian:

It's completely different.

Ian:

It's called the smart ADHD podcast.

Ian:

And you may be totally fed up with everyone talking about ADHD at the moment.

Ian:

It seems to be that many people are talking about it, but that's

Ian:

what that podcast is all about.

Ian:

It's something that I'm really passionate about.

Ian:

And also it's become really, popular.

Ian:

I'm actually, I found that we've got double the number of downloads per

Ian:

week with that episode to this one.

Ian:

So that's definitely going to be my focus.

Ian:

and particularly as I'm going to be going to the international ADHD conference

Ian:

in Anaheim, California, in the US.

Ian:

In November, I'm really excited about that as well, but, I'm also interested

Ian:

in what's happening with tech and AI as well in the business and marketing

Ian:

world, and also how that can impact us personally in our personal lives as well.

Ian:

So look out for something there.

Ian:

As well, so yes, we're going to be talking about confidence, communication.

Ian:

My background as a professional singer definitely comes into this.

Ian:

I've always had this passion, for communication and to help people.

Ian:

I think we all have a message and sometimes we, we let things

Ian:

like comparison or imposter syndrome get in the way.

Ian:

So that's what we're going to be talking about over the next few episodes.

Ian:

That's the end of this episode for this week and I will see you next time.

Ian:

Do go to iag.

Ian:

me forward slash podcast where you can see the videos of these podcasts as well.

Ian:

But until next time, I encourage you to level up your impact authority and profits

Ian:

through the power of confident live video.

Ian:

See you soon.

Ian:

Bye.
