I recently had a bad experience with a job I applied for. The job listing was misleading, they were hiring for one position but that wasn’t the job. Heck, even the company name was false. I hate when companies lie, so I decided to do a podcast episode about it.
This week’s episode is a bit short and different from our regular episodes. In this episode, I give a little update on what I’ve been doing. Many people often find themselves in the same position when looking for a job so why not talk about it.
In this episode of The Books By Josh Audio Immersion, I talk about the latest business model that has taken the world by storm, subscriptions. Subscription based services may seem like a blessing at first but they are actually hurting us. We used to pay one time for music and software but that was long ago. We end up paying more at the end. Let’s learn the truth about subscriptions.
In this week’s episode, I go over the hardest part of working for yourself. You. This might sound ridiculous but listen until the end and see if your answer doesn’t change.
In this week’s episode of the Books By Josh Audio Immersion, I got over the importance of a side hustle. What is a side hustle, it’s a way to supplement your income on the side. Each person sees the world differently which means your side hustle will be different from mine.
In this episode of the Books By Josh Audio Immersion, I revisit the topic of being different. I also get a bit personal in this episode when I discuss the repercussions of posting my work on my personal social media. This episode somehow ties in with my recent review of Willie Nelson’s autobiography.
In this episode of the Books By Josh Audio Immersion, I go over what I learned from reading books. Since our last episode, I have made it my mission to read three or four books a week. Even though I love reading, this task has proved quite difficult and in this episode, I will explain why.
The finale to the three-part episode series of the two Ws and one H. In this episode I go over the topic of Where aka your platform. The platform you use to grow your audience is pretty important and not all platforms are the same.
In our last episode, we tackled the important topic of Why. Now that you know your Why, How are you going to make it happen? That’s exactly why I created this episode to help you in your search for the How. The information found in this episode will help you if you are just starting your hustle so give it a listen.
For the fiftieth episode of the Books By Josh Audio Immersion, I wanted to tackle one of the most important aspects of businesses and side hustles. Your WHY aka your Mission Statement. In my blog I constantly go over this topic but I have yet to do so in my podcast. Your why determines how hard you will hustle or work in order to succeed. The only thing is that your why must be strong because if not then you wont work hard. If this sounds confusing, then make sure you listen all the way through.
In this episode of the Books By Josh Audio Immersion, I tackle the topic of customers. This episode covers the broad topic of customers. I go over the definition of customers, how to please customers, how to get customers and so much more. This is a great listen for anyone starting or struggling in retail. This is advice from someone who has dealt with customers for over twelve years.
I’ve worked in the world of retail for over ten years and I have learned many lessons through it. One of the most important lessons was the power of upselling. I didn’t get it for the first couple of years but once I did it became second nature. For those of you who don’t know what upselling is, it’s when you sell someone something higher priced or additional add on items. Upselling is important especially in the world of business and sales. In this episode, I go over the basics of upselling.
Many people struggle with the idea of starting their own side hustle or business. One of the hardest decisions is deciding to do it alone or with another person. How do I know this, because I struggled with this question in the past. In this episode, I share some insight on working solo and working in a partnership. Everything I say may not apply to you but the core concept will. Sit back and get ready to take some notes.
When you search Google for the definition of failure, the first result defines it as a lack of success. I disagree with this definition because failure can be seen as a form of success. Coca-Cola was invented as a cure to morphine addiction (it isn’t). Coca-Cola is technically a failure but it’s one of the most recognizable brands in the world. In this episode, I list a bunch of my failures and how I learned from them. These stories won’t be as epic as the Coca-Cola one but you might learn something.
Voice is defined as the sound that we produce but it’s so much more. In this episode, I use the word voice to describe the way we express ourselves. Should you filter your voice? When should you use your voice? Does your voice define you? These answers and many more will be explained in this episode.
