Ever meet someone in real life, after months of online conversations? What does it take to take your story to the next level?

What does it take to build an engaged digital community? And what do octopuses have to do with it? A few months ago, I was introduced to Warren Carlyle via Facebook. His vision on digital community building is so on par with how I approach every client, every project, and every piece of content. It's clear that today, there's a strong call for not only building a strong digital community but actually engaging with the people within the community. In fact, Facebook themselves stated that they'll be "focusing on helping you find relevant content to helping you have more meaningful social interactions. What is a meaningful interaction? Warren and I discuss this and highlight the importance of communities to benefit from the changes to the Facebook algorithm. What's the difference between a community with a soul and one that is without? After hearing from Ben Roberts in episode 12, who spoke all about reverse engineering the consumer acquisition process, I think Warren is a great follow up gues. He took a space, the underwater world, and made it human. He created a super fan community. Who better to teach everyone about the model for building a strong digital community than Warren. A Bit About the Guest Warren Carlyle is a Community Building Strategist helping businesses build highly engaged communities online. He is founder/CEO of OctoNation®- The Largest Octopus Fan Club 501(c)3 with over 350k members. He's collaborated and gotten the attention of Celebrities & Influencers such as Michael B Jordan, Erika Jayne, Ellen Degeneres, Grant Cardone, and more. Warren believes vanity metrics are a thing of the past and that businesses and brands need to rethink their strategies to build deeper connections with their audience if they're looking to stay relevant and have engaged followers in this busy marketplace. Having worked closely with celebrity artists, thought leaders, bloggers, fitness personalities, and brands such as Sony Pictures, Mont Blanc and GQ, Warren understands and advocates the building of an engaged community online as the lifeblood of a business' relevancy in the marketplace Since 2012, Warren has helped brands increase their sales, productivity and the overall success of their social media campaign through custom training sessions that teach step-by-step how to grow an active community. The landscape of social media changes on a daily basis, Warren teaches what's working now while testing and developing the latest strategies of community building on a daily basis. Warren’s programs are designed for individuals, companies, and organizations that are interested in strengthening relationships with their customers through community building on social media.

Ever wonder how to reverse engineer the customer acquisition process to drive real value? After meeting Ben Roberts at Engage Prague, we connected immediately. Ben is just on a social media roll and I'm honored to be part of his growth trajectory. It's clear that today, there's a strong call for transparency and reinventing the process of bringing new business. People have been buying from people for years. Today's audiences expect more from a brand, from a service provider, from a company. Ben is fortunate to lead marketing for a company that 'gets it.' They've reverse engineered the entire process of consumer acquisition and it's inspiring. What's it like to work with a business that has lost only one customer in 2.5 years? After hearing from Lucy live from WebSummit about the transformation of tech leaders in their approach to brand transparency, this podcast with Ben Roberts couldn't be more logical. A Bit About the Guest Ben M Roberts is the founder and host of ‘The Marketing Buzzword Podcast’, Head of Marketing at Talkative, a SaaS Technology Start-Up and an international conference speaker. In 2018, he was named WalesOnline’s no.1 business professional male under 35. He also writes for notable online business and marketing publications such as business.com, allbusiness.com, and socialmediatoday.com. Ben is a huge believer in your destiny being in your own hands, and that you reap what you sow. He has worked (and continues) to build a consistent personal brand, which has helped open doors, that previously seemed closed to him. You are your greatest asset, and Ben wants to help people take control of their personal brands. Ben is just a true entrepreneur. He's been growing, hustling, and it's inspiring to watch his success. GREAT QUOTES FROM THE SHOW Build the relationship online first, then in person, then develop it and cultivate back online Using social selling approach in the real world. Bring value first and sell second Businesses should gain an in-depth understanding, attends events not for prospects necessarily but to gaining a real finger on the pulse of the trends MORE ABOUT THIS SHOW On the episode, Ben and I cover: Social Selling in the Real World What are the biggest challenges with working clients that are a bit hesitant to this approach?

11: Empathize It: Lucy von Sturmer: Live from #websummit "Refining the Why of a Brand" 33:36

7 years ago33:36

33:36

What are the trends in today's digital space? What are the big brands, companies, and enterprises thinking about? It's clear that today, there's a strong call for transparency and true leadership. Today’s audiences expect more. We expect more from brands, governments, organizations, and leaders. In today's digital landscape, brands need to be deliberate in their communications and open to making changes that may challenge existing norms. Today's audiences are active participants and are seeking to promote, share, and be included. Where better to take the pulse of the tech leaders than Web Summit? According to Forbes Web Summit is “the best technology conference on the planet”; The New York Times says that Web Summit assembles “a grand conclave of the tech industry’s high priests.” The fact that the tech industry is discussing this topic inspired me. So, I quickly reached out to my colleague Lucy von Sturmer who is at Web Summit. At the Summit, Gail Heimann, President at Weber Shandwick stated "there's not a single conversation we have with a company today that isn't about purpose. Brands are being asked to define and defend their values like never before." Lucy's passion and 'high' from the Summit is very clear in our conversation. After discussing Google's approach to empathy and mindfulness in episode 10, my conversation with Lucy is logical. A Bit About the Guest Lucy started her career in the world of journalism, television, and PR in New Zealand. Then, seven years ago, moved to The Netherlands, joined global initiative Making All Voices Count where she worked for Dutch NGO Hivos as their global communications manager. After that, Lucy served as the Global PR Manager for MediaMonks, where she was brought on to create a global thought leadership strategy for the company to take forward. Over the years, she found her voice writing for publications such as The Huffington Post, Sustainable Brands, and Mumbrella on topics such as sustainable fashion, blockchain and the power of thought leadership. As her career developed, Lucy became increasingly convinced of the power of PR to drive social, cultural and environmental change. So in 2017, Lucy founded The Humblebrag, a strategic communications consultancy, to share this “superpower” with others (note: coolest name for a brand, ever?). The boutique consultancy champions change-makers and creative innovators, whose clients span creative agencies, innovative marketing companies, NGOs and multi-stakeholder initiatives. Today, Lucy works with an amazing team of purpose-drive individuals and together they design and execute PR campaigns, write compelling thought-leadership content, and secure effective media coverage across sectors. One of the many reasons I like Lucy is her passion. Her drive to make a difference is addictive. Like me, she comes from the NGO world and has channeled it towards changing the business industry. GREAT QUOTES FROM THE SHOW HR and marketing is the new synergy of companies. Arianna Huffington 50% of company reputation is decided by CEO You are the brand and people are thirsty for human interaction. Today, consumers and people are seeking to read quality thought leadership pieces. We’ve been criticized about women and the conference. Imagine if someone looks at your website in 5 years from now they will critique the makeup of the team. Why not have the conversation earlier? Based on a conversation Lucy conduction with Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten, CEO and co-founder of The Next Web. MORE ABOUT THIS SHOW On the episode, Lucy and I cover: The vibe at Web Summit 2018 After attending Web Summit, Lucy, what kind of change would you want to see companies implement? How are companies backing up their mission statements? The importance of digital transparency, especially at the CEO level. Listen closely because there's a lot of great insights and ideas.
