About Not Your Average Online Marketing Podcast

Not Your Average Online Marketing Podcast is a tactical show about building and selling online offers with less fantasy and more operating detail. Its center of gravity is list growth. Facebook and Instagram ads come up repeatedly, especially as tools for getting qualified people into an email ecosystem. The show does not treat ads as magic. It asks what happens after the click. A low cost per lead is not enough if the freebie attracts people who do not want the paid offer, and strong ad numbers can still fail when the funnel, offer, or follow-up does not match the buyer’s real problem. That practicality carries into its episodes on organic content. In the Kimberly Espinel conversation, Instagram is framed as both reach and relationship, with attention to why a reel or carousel might travel widely but still fail to earn follows. The show also makes room for personal content as a trust builder before a launch. It is blunt about passive income. The message is simple: revenue can be systemized, but refunds, logins, chargebacks, platform changes, technical fixes, fulfillment, and client communication still need people paying attention. Guest episodes widen the lens without drifting from implementation. Jena’s challenge-focused episode gets into always-open offers, time bonuses, abandoned-cart follow-up, and buyers who are ready because their work situation has pushed them to act. Liz Wilcox appears in an email marketing and low-ticket membership conversation. Across the excerpts, the show favors step-by-step thinking, real funnel mechanics, and marketing choices that can be tested. It is especially useful for online course creators, coaches, consultants, and membership owners who already know they need an audience but want sharper ways to turn attention into trust and sales.

Made for: For online course creators, coaches, consultants, and membership owners working on list growth, funnels, launches, and offer conversion. It best suits builders who want concrete marketing adjustments rather than broad encouragement.

What sets it apart: The show connects front-end tactics to back-end business reality: ads, content, freebies, funnels, support, fulfillment, and ongoing maintenance all matter. Its most useful moments challenge surface-level metrics and ask whether the whole system is actually creating qualified buyers.

In their own words

This is Not Your Average Online Marketing Podcast, and it is about CHANGING the way we think about online marketing...Right now, most podcasts are simply about growing the list, to sell the course, to get the money, to move you up the ladder - listeners = dollars, not listeners = people. This podcast may still grow our business...but here's the difference:Our goal is for every episode to be ACTIONABLE with steps you can take after listening. There’s no withholding of the “special sauce” that we’ve used to scale our business - just direct info that we’ve used to scale.We want our listeners to be able to ACTUALLY implement and get results from the podcast alone, and if they love it, be ready t…
