The Silent Prep: Pivoting | Why I Don't Promote Guests Before They Sit Down


In this solo episode of the Bankedoutt Radio Show, we dive into the reality of the hustle: The Pivot. Business isn't always smooth—sometimes guests flake, life happens, and your "11:00 AM" turns into a no-show. But in the world of Music and Business, the mic stays hot.
Today, we’re breaking down:
- Time Equity: Why you must stop treating your schedule like it’s free.
- The Silent Prep: The strategic reason I never promote a guest until the work is locked in.
- Professional Boundaries: How to stay empathetic without being a doormat when collaborators drop the ball.
- Mastering the Pivot: Turning friction into a masterclass for your audience.
Protect your brand's credibility by learning to work in silence until you're ready to drop the heat.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.679
Welcome back to the Bankedoutt Radio Show. You
00:00:01.679 --> 00:00:03.720
know, we're gonna keep it 100 here. Music and
00:00:03.720 --> 00:00:05.599
Business Talk. Today's episode's gonna be a little
00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:08.960
bit different. We had a guest on the book, but
00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:11.960
life happened, things shifted, and it's an empty
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:14.160
seat today. But here's the thing, the mic is
00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:16.559
still hot. Yes it is. In business, you don't
00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:18.600
always get to shut down a factory just because
00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:20.579
one delivery is late, you pivot. Today we're
00:00:20.579 --> 00:00:23.620
gonna talk about how to handle. The silent phase
00:00:23.620 --> 00:00:26.260
of business -wide protecting your brand integrity
00:00:26.260 --> 00:00:29.179
is your number one job. Time is the only asset
00:00:29.179 --> 00:00:32.600
you cannot buy back. Reality is that if your
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:34.600
business partner doesn't value your 11 a .m.,
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:37.500
they won't value your 4 p .m. either. When, you
00:00:37.500 --> 00:00:40.140
know, the schedule slips, don't chase. You put
00:00:40.140 --> 00:00:42.640
the ball back in their court. Now, I've had plenty
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:45.200
of times where I've had different guests scheduled
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:49.439
and due to a myriad of things, I always put the
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:51.820
ball back in their court. Boy, I learned this
00:00:51.820 --> 00:00:54.140
a long time ago. I've been broadcasting since
00:00:54.140 --> 00:00:58.920
2016. A flyer tells me your price. An interview,
00:00:59.140 --> 00:01:02.079
it tells me your purpose. In the world of AI
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:05.700
graphics and posting ghost marketing, people
00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:08.719
are starving for something real. You can post
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:12.459
a flyer every day, but a static image can share
00:01:12.459 --> 00:01:15.969
your why. It can't show you a struggle. It definitely
00:01:15.969 --> 00:01:18.849
can't capture the passion that it took you to
00:01:18.849 --> 00:01:20.670
start your business. When you sit down with me
00:01:20.670 --> 00:01:23.530
and we bank our radio show, we humanize your
00:01:23.530 --> 00:01:26.909
brain. We let your voice, your smile, and your
00:01:26.909 --> 00:01:29.629
expertise do all of the selling. That's how we
00:01:29.629 --> 00:01:32.629
turn a follower into a client who trusts you
00:01:32.629 --> 00:01:35.709
with their money and their time. I am currently
00:01:35.709 --> 00:01:38.189
opening up the calendar for the summer highlight
00:01:38.189 --> 00:01:40.829
video features. I only take a certain number
00:01:40.829 --> 00:01:43.109
of video brands per month to make sure you get
00:01:43.109 --> 00:01:45.930
that 10 -year professional touch. If you're ready
00:01:45.930 --> 00:01:48.250
to stop being a hidden gem, and you want to be
00:01:48.250 --> 00:01:51.390
an industry leader, reach out to me now. So over
00:01:51.390 --> 00:01:55.590
the course, and here it is, May 22nd, 2026, it
00:01:55.590 --> 00:01:59.829
has been 10 plus years, 10 years in what, May,
00:02:00.430 --> 00:02:03.329
I mean February, sorry, February to May, February,
00:02:03.629 --> 00:02:06.590
March, April, May, four months. So 10 years and
00:02:06.590 --> 00:02:13.680
a quarter of a year. So 10 .25 years and. No,
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:17.219
it doesn't work. Maybe I did the math on that
00:02:17.219 --> 00:02:20.819
wrong. That's three months to a quarter. So a
00:02:20.819 --> 00:02:25.020
quarter and then a month. So, yeah, I learned
00:02:25.020 --> 00:02:27.460
a lot of time ago that, you know, you're running
00:02:27.460 --> 00:02:30.180
a business and you don't want to sit there and
00:02:30.180 --> 00:02:32.830
make things personal. So you have to take yourself
00:02:32.830 --> 00:02:34.610
out of it. You don't have to, you know, getting
00:02:34.610 --> 00:02:36.889
your feelings about things and things that don't
00:02:36.889 --> 00:02:39.090
go your way. You just take the time to pivot
00:02:39.090 --> 00:02:41.770
and do something else. Like I used to have a
00:02:41.770 --> 00:02:48.509
list. I used to have a list of guests that, no,
00:02:48.810 --> 00:02:51.469
granted, I want to put this in perspective. I
00:02:51.469 --> 00:02:58.069
had a list of guests that I will not interview.
00:02:58.710 --> 00:03:01.810
Meaning that I gave them an opportunity And the
00:03:01.810 --> 00:03:05.150
reason I won't interview them is because they
00:03:05.150 --> 00:03:08.050
were no call, no show. Most of the time when
00:03:08.050 --> 00:03:11.530
I have a guest, I have nearer ways to be able
00:03:11.530 --> 00:03:15.650
to contact them. I like using text because it's
00:03:15.650 --> 00:03:18.770
direct to someone's phone. Sometimes, you know,
00:03:18.969 --> 00:03:21.490
email. But for the most part, I like to use text
00:03:21.490 --> 00:03:23.389
and text all my different guests when I bring
00:03:23.389 --> 00:03:27.129
them on, whether it be in person or if it's through
00:03:27.129 --> 00:03:31.110
virtual. And... What year was this? I would say
00:03:31.110 --> 00:03:34.569
it was around 2019, 2020, something like that.
00:03:34.689 --> 00:03:36.469
I started just getting cancellations because
00:03:36.469 --> 00:03:39.810
people just didn't care to respond or maybe they
00:03:39.810 --> 00:03:42.189
just forgot. Now, I look at it, you know, from
00:03:42.189 --> 00:03:44.150
a business perspective, I'm looking at it like,
00:03:44.270 --> 00:03:47.030
look, I'm giving you free promo for your business.
00:03:47.090 --> 00:03:50.270
I took the time out to do a lot of things to
00:03:50.270 --> 00:03:53.449
research you. And researching someone, it's gotten
00:03:53.449 --> 00:03:55.150
better over the years as far as the different
00:03:55.150 --> 00:03:57.430
tools that you could use, but... It still takes
00:03:57.430 --> 00:03:59.430
hours. And then you want to come up with a good
00:03:59.430 --> 00:04:02.030
concept for that show. You want to have some
00:04:02.030 --> 00:04:04.370
thought -provoking questions. You want to be
00:04:04.370 --> 00:04:07.430
able to, you know, give the audience. that value
00:04:07.430 --> 00:04:09.789
so that takes time preparation and then i also
00:04:09.789 --> 00:04:12.729
used to have my graphic designer where she would
00:04:12.729 --> 00:04:15.129
do all my flyers and i paid for some flyers that
00:04:15.129 --> 00:04:17.430
i didn't even get to use because the guests didn't
00:04:17.430 --> 00:04:19.370
show up and that was a waste of money so i'm
00:04:19.370 --> 00:04:22.449
wasting time i'm wasting money i'm doing promo
00:04:22.449 --> 00:04:24.970
in anticipation of the episode to let people
00:04:24.970 --> 00:04:26.730
know they're not showing up and this is what
00:04:26.730 --> 00:04:28.790
i was doing stuff live pre -recorded and then
00:04:28.790 --> 00:04:31.569
i started pre -recording stuff so i pivoted i
00:04:31.569 --> 00:04:34.670
pivoted Throughout a lot and I'm just trying
00:04:34.670 --> 00:04:36.730
to you know, get everyone, you know I want you
00:04:36.730 --> 00:04:38.470
to be aware you could pivot in all different
00:04:38.470 --> 00:04:42.009
directions when my operation system of doing
00:04:42.009 --> 00:04:46.170
things When I was doing live shows I pivoted
00:04:46.170 --> 00:04:48.829
because I had too many cancellations due to whatever
00:04:48.829 --> 00:04:51.610
reasons and at the end of the day I am providing
00:04:51.610 --> 00:04:54.209
a platform where people are going to watch and
00:04:54.209 --> 00:04:56.569
they do watch and they will seek out these people
00:04:56.569 --> 00:04:59.129
because in the past I've always asked the people
00:04:59.129 --> 00:05:02.259
that came on especially with business how coming
00:05:02.259 --> 00:05:05.300
on the platform affected their business. And
00:05:05.300 --> 00:05:08.019
there were situations where they were getting
00:05:08.019 --> 00:05:10.600
sales before they even left the building. When
00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:13.480
I was doing it in person, I knew the impact that
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:17.199
I created because I've done so much. work over
00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:19.480
the years. So I know that the platform draws
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:22.540
attention. It also makes that person, to their
00:05:22.540 --> 00:05:26.000
own personal network or business network or professional
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:28.639
network, it validates what they're doing. I had
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:30.839
people who would come onto my platform because
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:32.620
other people wouldn't support them. When they
00:05:32.620 --> 00:05:34.079
came onto the platform, they started supporting
00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:36.620
them. And that has been the case multiple times
00:05:36.620 --> 00:05:40.240
over. Prusa Concept is there multiple times over.
00:05:40.269 --> 00:05:42.769
So when I'm spending this money, I'm doing the
00:05:42.769 --> 00:05:44.790
research, I got the building, I have all these
00:05:44.790 --> 00:05:46.790
different overhead costs I have to take into
00:05:46.790 --> 00:05:48.870
consideration. Let me switch this process where
00:05:48.870 --> 00:05:51.329
I could just go straight and do pre -recording.
00:05:51.589 --> 00:05:53.649
At least if you cancel on that particular day,
00:05:53.730 --> 00:05:56.069
I can pivot and do other things with my time
00:05:56.069 --> 00:05:59.310
instead of trying to do a live show where my
00:05:59.310 --> 00:06:00.949
guest doesn't come up, now I got to scramble
00:06:00.949 --> 00:06:04.250
and do a show. And I've done that a few times,
00:06:04.589 --> 00:06:07.509
but I'm like, I'll... I could freestyle some
00:06:07.509 --> 00:06:09.550
stuff at the same time. I like to present the
00:06:09.550 --> 00:06:11.490
information that I wanted to present because
00:06:11.490 --> 00:06:14.149
that was part of their original agreement and
00:06:14.149 --> 00:06:16.350
planning the whole reason for that time slot
00:06:16.350 --> 00:06:19.889
and that energy being put towards that. So I
00:06:19.889 --> 00:06:21.610
started, you know, the list and I started putting
00:06:21.610 --> 00:06:24.009
people on this list that I will keep in my files.
00:06:24.209 --> 00:06:26.050
I'm not going to interview them and those people
00:06:26.050 --> 00:06:27.829
I have not interviewed because I didn't have
00:06:27.829 --> 00:06:31.069
respect. And my thing is at the end of the day,
00:06:31.110 --> 00:06:32.750
people can look at your platform and judge it
00:06:32.750 --> 00:06:34.730
however they want to, right? I've never looked
00:06:34.730 --> 00:06:36.970
at someone's platform no matter how big or small.
00:06:37.050 --> 00:06:38.490
I'm like, you know what, it's not big enough
00:06:38.490 --> 00:06:40.649
for my time or whatever. The fact that someone
00:06:40.649 --> 00:06:42.470
takes the time out of their day and they put
00:06:42.470 --> 00:06:44.930
resources and energy into something to highlight
00:06:44.930 --> 00:06:48.170
you and it's all about you, then I think you
00:06:48.170 --> 00:06:51.610
deserve to give that person respect. You wouldn't
00:06:51.610 --> 00:06:54.069
just show up at your job whenever. If you're
00:06:54.069 --> 00:06:55.589
a business and you're servicing customers, you
00:06:55.589 --> 00:06:56.629
know that you're going to show up at whatever
00:06:56.629 --> 00:06:59.649
time. So just because, you know, you haven't...
00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:01.360
put in your brain that, you know what I'm saying?
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:03.740
You don't know the value of this doesn't mean
00:07:03.740 --> 00:07:07.819
that it doesn't have value. And you just you
00:07:07.819 --> 00:07:10.180
can't just assume that you can't respect people's
00:07:10.180 --> 00:07:13.339
times because you give attention to detail to
00:07:13.339 --> 00:07:15.560
other things and other aspects in your life that
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.439
you want to. So I've always looked at it like
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:21.180
this. At the end of the day, people don't have
00:07:21.180 --> 00:07:22.740
to build a platform and they don't have to put
00:07:22.740 --> 00:07:25.040
you on. And you can still grind, especially when
00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:27.240
it comes to businesses and people who want to
00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:29.319
make money off their craft. Right. you can still
00:07:29.319 --> 00:07:31.759
do it all yourself. No one has to help you. So
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:34.019
the fact that other people want to help you with
00:07:34.019 --> 00:07:36.319
your vision out there so other people can become
00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:39.420
aware of you. I'm like, it's just a respect thing
00:07:39.420 --> 00:07:41.379
at the end of the day. So I learned that. And
00:07:41.379 --> 00:07:42.939
I learned that, you know, I was going through
00:07:42.939 --> 00:07:44.639
the situation where I'm talking to different
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.000
people and I'm getting all these different real
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:49.720
-time feedback. I was like, you know what? I
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:51.600
don't need to accept this responsibility. So
00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:53.620
I started putting the ball back into their court,
00:07:53.779 --> 00:07:56.420
which means that If someone cancels on me, first
00:07:56.420 --> 00:07:58.579
of all, I start reaching out. I'm not going to
00:07:58.579 --> 00:08:01.160
pretty much tell how it's going to go, especially
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:03.120
when I'm meeting new people for the first time.
00:08:03.259 --> 00:08:05.180
I've had interviews that I've set up here in
00:08:05.180 --> 00:08:07.600
the last couple of weeks where they were supposed
00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:10.620
to come in person and didn't even show. and we
00:08:10.620 --> 00:08:12.779
had talked all week long about them showing up
00:08:12.779 --> 00:08:14.399
at a particular time place and then they hit
00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:16.560
you with that before an hour and a half. Oh,
00:08:16.620 --> 00:08:18.579
I'm not going to be able to make it. I got this
00:08:18.579 --> 00:08:20.319
and that. I'm like, okay, whatever. You know
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:22.779
what? If you're not serious, then you're not
00:08:22.779 --> 00:08:24.160
serious. You should have just said that from
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:26.779
the get go, especially when you are soliciting
00:08:26.779 --> 00:08:29.620
for people to come to you as far as to bring
00:08:29.620 --> 00:08:32.960
you to content and they provide a space for you
00:08:32.960 --> 00:08:35.360
to come and all you got to do is show up, record,
00:08:35.580 --> 00:08:37.490
do your thing. But that's a whole another story,
00:08:37.850 --> 00:08:39.649
like a whole another thing we'll get into as
00:08:39.649 --> 00:08:41.809
far as how you build your platform consistently
00:08:41.809 --> 00:08:44.830
and build your audience. But then, you know,
00:08:44.850 --> 00:08:47.330
you got people who just like I've had times where
00:08:47.330 --> 00:08:50.490
I text people an hour before, no response, 30
00:08:50.490 --> 00:08:52.049
minutes before, no response. I was like, OK,
00:08:52.149 --> 00:08:53.850
this is going to be a no -show. People, when
00:08:53.850 --> 00:08:55.870
you start dealing with people in large number
00:08:55.870 --> 00:08:58.909
of quantities, they all do the same thing. They're
00:08:58.909 --> 00:09:01.889
either about their business. Those are the two
00:09:01.889 --> 00:09:04.330
sides of the spectrum that they follow. And some
00:09:04.330 --> 00:09:05.809
people look at stuff like, you know, what, is
00:09:05.809 --> 00:09:07.250
this going to be my opportunity? And some people
00:09:07.250 --> 00:09:08.950
look at it like, you know, they let life control
00:09:08.950 --> 00:09:10.210
them instead of them controlling their life.
00:09:10.789 --> 00:09:14.110
And yes, emergencies do happen, but I've had
00:09:14.110 --> 00:09:16.029
to reschedule on people, right? But I've always
00:09:16.029 --> 00:09:18.230
told people in advance, even when I've had to
00:09:18.230 --> 00:09:20.590
do stuff like 30 minutes before, I apologize
00:09:20.590 --> 00:09:22.590
to them and I send them a link like, hey, you
00:09:22.590 --> 00:09:24.049
can go ahead and reschedule. Because I learned
00:09:24.049 --> 00:09:25.789
how to be more efficient with it. I give them
00:09:25.789 --> 00:09:27.590
the opportunity to be able to, you know, okay,
00:09:27.730 --> 00:09:29.929
cool. You know, and I try not to, I have not
00:09:29.929 --> 00:09:31.830
canceled on people multiple times in a row and
00:09:31.830 --> 00:09:33.950
stuff like that. And like I said, things happen,
00:09:34.450 --> 00:09:36.169
but at the end of the day, you prioritize what
00:09:36.169 --> 00:09:37.690
you want to do. Either you're going to control
00:09:37.690 --> 00:09:39.690
your life or your life is going to control you.
00:09:40.169 --> 00:09:43.049
And when you reach out to people multiple times
00:09:43.049 --> 00:09:44.970
throughout the week or a day, whatever the case
00:09:44.970 --> 00:09:47.210
may be, I mean, you start to get a feeling for,
00:09:47.289 --> 00:09:49.590
you know, okay, how this person operates. So,
00:09:49.649 --> 00:09:51.149
you know, you just have to pivot. So that's what
00:09:51.149 --> 00:09:53.289
we're doing today. Talking about, you know, pivot.
00:09:53.529 --> 00:09:55.269
Cause that's what I had to do. The work still
00:09:55.269 --> 00:09:56.929
has to be done. You know, you got to protect
00:09:56.929 --> 00:09:58.429
your credibility. You got to let the, you know,
00:09:58.549 --> 00:10:00.970
context speaks for itself. You got to keep moving.
00:10:01.809 --> 00:10:05.450
You know, like it's a grind up here. So if you
00:10:05.450 --> 00:10:08.769
want to achieve something, you gotta keep going.
00:10:08.950 --> 00:10:11.370
And that's what I did today, learning how to
00:10:11.370 --> 00:10:13.289
pivot and it's okay to pivot. There's nothing
00:10:13.289 --> 00:10:15.049
wrong with that. You know, you learn how to have
00:10:15.049 --> 00:10:17.720
a backup plan and you know what instead of like
00:10:17.720 --> 00:10:19.340
you know what i'm so tired of these gears blah
00:10:19.340 --> 00:10:21.559
blah whatever i'm gonna just pivot because i
00:10:21.559 --> 00:10:23.240
was thinking about doing solo episodes anyway
00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:25.259
because there's a lot of stuff out there that
00:10:25.259 --> 00:10:27.480
i think that should be covered that's not being
00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:31.690
covered and I can do it, go ahead, knock it out,
00:10:31.870 --> 00:10:34.070
get a little quick edit on it, put it out there
00:10:34.070 --> 00:10:36.330
and keep this train moving. And I want to, you
00:10:36.330 --> 00:10:37.850
know, just dive in a little bit about, you know,
00:10:37.970 --> 00:10:39.929
the different styles of podcasting where, you
00:10:39.929 --> 00:10:42.029
know, you do your solo episodes, you end up building
00:10:42.029 --> 00:10:44.529
your audience. Then you do your interview style.
00:10:44.990 --> 00:10:46.570
You have your industry style where, you know,
00:10:46.649 --> 00:10:48.190
I'm saying you rely on them guests and not all
00:10:48.190 --> 00:10:50.309
guests are created equal as far as like the way
00:10:50.309 --> 00:10:52.450
that they handle business on their end. And then
00:10:52.450 --> 00:10:55.779
you have your group or your duo. podcast where
00:10:55.779 --> 00:10:57.539
you're talking about you know i'm seeing various
00:10:57.539 --> 00:11:00.379
subjects matter as a group and discussing whether
00:11:00.379 --> 00:11:02.419
it be two three four five whatever it can be
00:11:02.419 --> 00:11:05.039
like the joe budd podcast it could be like you
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:07.740
know a duo trying to think of uh who's a good
00:11:07.740 --> 00:11:09.940
duo right now in the space of podcast i'm like
00:11:09.940 --> 00:11:11.240
there's a lot of people out there i just can't
00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:12.460
think of them right now i've been doing so much
00:11:12.460 --> 00:11:15.919
stuff research out at um editing videos shooting
00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:18.080
other additional type of content for various
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:20.580
things that i have this make that valid uh cooking
00:11:20.580 --> 00:11:23.840
cat hemco 31 Savage building up back there ready
00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:26.340
to show Facebook page even more where I hit like,
00:11:26.379 --> 00:11:28.279
you know Six or something thousand views already
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:31.019
within the last month 28 days something like
00:11:31.019 --> 00:11:34.159
that building, you know sense of community And
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:36.080
finding you know, I'm saying stories that need
00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:42.240
to be told finding Small business owners and
00:11:42.240 --> 00:11:44.740
creatives and those type of individuals who I
00:11:44.740 --> 00:11:47.500
like to talk to and get their story in the area
00:11:47.500 --> 00:11:50.179
in the metro Atlanta area it'll market So there's
00:11:50.179 --> 00:11:52.120
more stories out here that have not been told
00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:54.399
and just staying consistent because overall I
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:57.120
want to build this media empire. The only way
00:11:57.120 --> 00:11:59.740
it's going to be built about me putting in the
00:11:59.740 --> 00:12:02.879
reps like I constantly do and continuously do,
00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:05.940
you know, accuracy and precision working, having
00:12:05.940 --> 00:12:08.159
this synergy and then, you know, making the necessary
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:11.919
moves to put other people on, bring other people
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:14.519
on board. and going through that process as well,
00:12:14.539 --> 00:12:16.080
because I've been through it with other organizations.
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:19.299
Yeah, so, you know, I guess that's, that's still
00:12:19.299 --> 00:12:20.940
going to be dropping, you know what I'm saying,
00:12:21.580 --> 00:12:23.740
interviews with other people. Still have some
00:12:23.740 --> 00:12:26.620
I need to edit that I am editing over the next
00:12:26.620 --> 00:12:28.960
couple of weeks. And I have some more solo stuff
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:31.340
I don't know playing as well. That way I can
00:12:31.340 --> 00:12:33.080
just, you know, put out some more diverse content
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:36.039
and, you know, still put out the things that
00:12:36.039 --> 00:12:37.620

and finding more political candidates and elected
00:12:48.019 --> 00:12:51.000
officials, talk to, get their perspective. I
00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:54.700
love talking to people. It's become a passion.

I think they're all marketing at gmail .com.
00:14:01.110 --> 00:14:04.009
And yeah, I really appreciate it. But yeah, just
00:14:04.009 --> 00:14:05.789
remember that no matter what happens, you can
00:14:05.789 --> 00:14:09.289
always pivot. Pivoting is a great skill set to
00:14:09.289 --> 00:14:09.490
have.
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.679
Welcome back to the Bankedoutt Radio Show. You
00:00:01.679 --> 00:00:03.720
know, we're gonna keep it 100 here. Music and
00:00:03.720 --> 00:00:05.599
Business Talk. Today's episode's gonna be a little
00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:08.960
bit different. We had a guest on the book, but
00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:11.960
life happened, things shifted, and it's an empty
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:14.160
seat today. But here's the thing, the mic is
00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:16.559
still hot. Yes it is. In business, you don't
00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:18.600
always get to shut down a factory just because
00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:20.579
one delivery is late, you pivot. Today we're
00:00:20.579 --> 00:00:23.620
gonna talk about how to handle. The silent phase
00:00:23.620 --> 00:00:26.260
of business -wide protecting your brand integrity
00:00:26.260 --> 00:00:29.179
is your number one job. Time is the only asset
00:00:29.179 --> 00:00:32.600
you cannot buy back. Reality is that if your
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:34.600
business partner doesn't value your 11 a .m.,
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:37.500
they won't value your 4 p .m. either. When, you
00:00:37.500 --> 00:00:40.140
know, the schedule slips, don't chase. You put
00:00:40.140 --> 00:00:42.640
the ball back in their court. Now, I've had plenty
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:45.200
of times where I've had different guests scheduled
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:49.439
and due to a myriad of things, I always put the
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:51.820
ball back in their court. Boy, I learned this
00:00:51.820 --> 00:00:54.140
a long time ago. I've been broadcasting since
00:00:54.140 --> 00:00:58.920
2016. A flyer tells me your price. An interview,
00:00:59.140 --> 00:01:02.079
it tells me your purpose. In the world of AI
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:05.700
graphics and posting ghost marketing, people
00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:08.719
are starving for something real. You can post
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:12.459
a flyer every day, but a static image can share
00:01:12.459 --> 00:01:15.969
your why. It can't show you a struggle. It definitely
00:01:15.969 --> 00:01:18.849
can't capture the passion that it took you to
00:01:18.849 --> 00:01:20.670
start your business. When you sit down with me
00:01:20.670 --> 00:01:23.530
and we bank our radio show, we humanize your
00:01:23.530 --> 00:01:26.909
brain. We let your voice, your smile, and your
00:01:26.909 --> 00:01:29.629
expertise do all of the selling. That's how we
00:01:29.629 --> 00:01:32.629
turn a follower into a client who trusts you
00:01:32.629 --> 00:01:35.709
with their money and their time. I am currently
00:01:35.709 --> 00:01:38.189
opening up the calendar for the summer highlight
00:01:38.189 --> 00:01:40.829
video features. I only take a certain number
00:01:40.829 --> 00:01:43.109
of video brands per month to make sure you get
00:01:43.109 --> 00:01:45.930
that 10 -year professional touch. If you're ready
00:01:45.930 --> 00:01:48.250
to stop being a hidden gem, and you want to be
00:01:48.250 --> 00:01:51.390
an industry leader, reach out to me now. So over
00:01:51.390 --> 00:01:55.590
the course, and here it is, May 22nd, 2026, it
00:01:55.590 --> 00:01:59.829
has been 10 plus years, 10 years in what, May,
00:02:00.430 --> 00:02:03.329
I mean February, sorry, February to May, February,
00:02:03.629 --> 00:02:06.590
March, April, May, four months. So 10 years and
00:02:06.590 --> 00:02:13.680
a quarter of a year. So 10 .25 years and. No,
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:17.219
it doesn't work. Maybe I did the math on that
00:02:17.219 --> 00:02:20.819
wrong. That's three months to a quarter. So a
00:02:20.819 --> 00:02:25.020
quarter and then a month. So, yeah, I learned
00:02:25.020 --> 00:02:27.460
a lot of time ago that, you know, you're running
00:02:27.460 --> 00:02:30.180
a business and you don't want to sit there and
00:02:30.180 --> 00:02:32.830
make things personal. So you have to take yourself
00:02:32.830 --> 00:02:34.610
out of it. You don't have to, you know, getting
00:02:34.610 --> 00:02:36.889
your feelings about things and things that don't
00:02:36.889 --> 00:02:39.090
go your way. You just take the time to pivot
00:02:39.090 --> 00:02:41.770
and do something else. Like I used to have a
00:02:41.770 --> 00:02:48.509
list. I used to have a list of guests that, no,
00:02:48.810 --> 00:02:51.469
granted, I want to put this in perspective. I
00:02:51.469 --> 00:02:58.069
had a list of guests that I will not interview.
00:02:58.710 --> 00:03:01.810
Meaning that I gave them an opportunity And the
00:03:01.810 --> 00:03:05.150
reason I won't interview them is because they
00:03:05.150 --> 00:03:08.050
were no call, no show. Most of the time when
00:03:08.050 --> 00:03:11.530
I have a guest, I have nearer ways to be able
00:03:11.530 --> 00:03:15.650
to contact them. I like using text because it's
00:03:15.650 --> 00:03:18.770
direct to someone's phone. Sometimes, you know,
00:03:18.969 --> 00:03:21.490
email. But for the most part, I like to use text
00:03:21.490 --> 00:03:23.389
and text all my different guests when I bring
00:03:23.389 --> 00:03:27.129
them on, whether it be in person or if it's through
00:03:27.129 --> 00:03:31.110
virtual. And... What year was this? I would say
00:03:31.110 --> 00:03:34.569
it was around 2019, 2020, something like that.
00:03:34.689 --> 00:03:36.469
I started just getting cancellations because
00:03:36.469 --> 00:03:39.810
people just didn't care to respond or maybe they
00:03:39.810 --> 00:03:42.189
just forgot. Now, I look at it, you know, from
00:03:42.189 --> 00:03:44.150
a business perspective, I'm looking at it like,
00:03:44.270 --> 00:03:47.030
look, I'm giving you free promo for your business.
00:03:47.090 --> 00:03:50.270
I took the time out to do a lot of things to
00:03:50.270 --> 00:03:53.449
research you. And researching someone, it's gotten
00:03:53.449 --> 00:03:55.150
better over the years as far as the different
00:03:55.150 --> 00:03:57.430
tools that you could use, but... It still takes
00:03:57.430 --> 00:03:59.430
hours. And then you want to come up with a good
00:03:59.430 --> 00:04:02.030
concept for that show. You want to have some
00:04:02.030 --> 00:04:04.370
thought -provoking questions. You want to be
00:04:04.370 --> 00:04:07.430
able to, you know, give the audience. that value
00:04:07.430 --> 00:04:09.789
so that takes time preparation and then i also
00:04:09.789 --> 00:04:12.729
used to have my graphic designer where she would
00:04:12.729 --> 00:04:15.129
do all my flyers and i paid for some flyers that
00:04:15.129 --> 00:04:17.430
i didn't even get to use because the guests didn't
00:04:17.430 --> 00:04:19.370
show up and that was a waste of money so i'm
00:04:19.370 --> 00:04:22.449
wasting time i'm wasting money i'm doing promo
00:04:22.449 --> 00:04:24.970
in anticipation of the episode to let people
00:04:24.970 --> 00:04:26.730
know they're not showing up and this is what
00:04:26.730 --> 00:04:28.790
i was doing stuff live pre -recorded and then
00:04:28.790 --> 00:04:31.569
i started pre -recording stuff so i pivoted i
00:04:31.569 --> 00:04:34.670
pivoted Throughout a lot and I'm just trying
00:04:34.670 --> 00:04:36.730
to you know, get everyone, you know I want you
00:04:36.730 --> 00:04:38.470
to be aware you could pivot in all different
00:04:38.470 --> 00:04:42.009
directions when my operation system of doing
00:04:42.009 --> 00:04:46.170
things When I was doing live shows I pivoted
00:04:46.170 --> 00:04:48.829
because I had too many cancellations due to whatever
00:04:48.829 --> 00:04:51.610
reasons and at the end of the day I am providing
00:04:51.610 --> 00:04:54.209
a platform where people are going to watch and
00:04:54.209 --> 00:04:56.569
they do watch and they will seek out these people
00:04:56.569 --> 00:04:59.129
because in the past I've always asked the people
00:04:59.129 --> 00:05:02.259
that came on especially with business how coming
00:05:02.259 --> 00:05:05.300
on the platform affected their business. And
00:05:05.300 --> 00:05:08.019
there were situations where they were getting
00:05:08.019 --> 00:05:10.600
sales before they even left the building. When
00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:13.480
I was doing it in person, I knew the impact that
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:17.199
I created because I've done so much. work over
00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:19.480
the years. So I know that the platform draws
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:22.540
attention. It also makes that person, to their
00:05:22.540 --> 00:05:26.000
own personal network or business network or professional
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:28.639
network, it validates what they're doing. I had
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:30.839
people who would come onto my platform because
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:32.620
other people wouldn't support them. When they
00:05:32.620 --> 00:05:34.079
came onto the platform, they started supporting
00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:36.620
them. And that has been the case multiple times
00:05:36.620 --> 00:05:40.240
over. Prusa Concept is there multiple times over.
00:05:40.269 --> 00:05:42.769
So when I'm spending this money, I'm doing the
00:05:42.769 --> 00:05:44.790
research, I got the building, I have all these
00:05:44.790 --> 00:05:46.790
different overhead costs I have to take into
00:05:46.790 --> 00:05:48.870
consideration. Let me switch this process where
00:05:48.870 --> 00:05:51.329
I could just go straight and do pre -recording.
00:05:51.589 --> 00:05:53.649
At least if you cancel on that particular day,
00:05:53.730 --> 00:05:56.069
I can pivot and do other things with my time
00:05:56.069 --> 00:05:59.310
instead of trying to do a live show where my
00:05:59.310 --> 00:06:00.949
guest doesn't come up, now I got to scramble
00:06:00.949 --> 00:06:04.250
and do a show. And I've done that a few times,
00:06:04.589 --> 00:06:07.509
but I'm like, I'll... I could freestyle some
00:06:07.509 --> 00:06:09.550
stuff at the same time. I like to present the
00:06:09.550 --> 00:06:11.490
information that I wanted to present because
00:06:11.490 --> 00:06:14.149
that was part of their original agreement and
00:06:14.149 --> 00:06:16.350
planning the whole reason for that time slot
00:06:16.350 --> 00:06:19.889
and that energy being put towards that. So I
00:06:19.889 --> 00:06:21.610
started, you know, the list and I started putting
00:06:21.610 --> 00:06:24.009
people on this list that I will keep in my files.
00:06:24.209 --> 00:06:26.050
I'm not going to interview them and those people
00:06:26.050 --> 00:06:27.829
I have not interviewed because I didn't have
00:06:27.829 --> 00:06:31.069
respect. And my thing is at the end of the day,
00:06:31.110 --> 00:06:32.750
people can look at your platform and judge it
00:06:32.750 --> 00:06:34.730
however they want to, right? I've never looked
00:06:34.730 --> 00:06:36.970
at someone's platform no matter how big or small.
00:06:37.050 --> 00:06:38.490
I'm like, you know what, it's not big enough
00:06:38.490 --> 00:06:40.649
for my time or whatever. The fact that someone
00:06:40.649 --> 00:06:42.470
takes the time out of their day and they put
00:06:42.470 --> 00:06:44.930
resources and energy into something to highlight
00:06:44.930 --> 00:06:48.170
you and it's all about you, then I think you
00:06:48.170 --> 00:06:51.610
deserve to give that person respect. You wouldn't
00:06:51.610 --> 00:06:54.069
just show up at your job whenever. If you're
00:06:54.069 --> 00:06:55.589
a business and you're servicing customers, you
00:06:55.589 --> 00:06:56.629
know that you're going to show up at whatever
00:06:56.629 --> 00:06:59.649
time. So just because, you know, you haven't...
00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:01.360
put in your brain that, you know what I'm saying?
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:03.740
You don't know the value of this doesn't mean
00:07:03.740 --> 00:07:07.819
that it doesn't have value. And you just you
00:07:07.819 --> 00:07:10.180
can't just assume that you can't respect people's
00:07:10.180 --> 00:07:13.339
times because you give attention to detail to
00:07:13.339 --> 00:07:15.560
other things and other aspects in your life that
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.439
you want to. So I've always looked at it like
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:21.180
this. At the end of the day, people don't have
00:07:21.180 --> 00:07:22.740
to build a platform and they don't have to put
00:07:22.740 --> 00:07:25.040
you on. And you can still grind, especially when
00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:27.240
it comes to businesses and people who want to
00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:29.319
make money off their craft. Right. you can still
00:07:29.319 --> 00:07:31.759
do it all yourself. No one has to help you. So
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:34.019
the fact that other people want to help you with
00:07:34.019 --> 00:07:36.319
your vision out there so other people can become
00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:39.420
aware of you. I'm like, it's just a respect thing
00:07:39.420 --> 00:07:41.379
at the end of the day. So I learned that. And
00:07:41.379 --> 00:07:42.939
I learned that, you know, I was going through
00:07:42.939 --> 00:07:44.639
the situation where I'm talking to different
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.000
people and I'm getting all these different real
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:49.720
-time feedback. I was like, you know what? I
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:51.600
don't need to accept this responsibility. So
00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:53.620
I started putting the ball back into their court,
00:07:53.779 --> 00:07:56.420
which means that If someone cancels on me, first
00:07:56.420 --> 00:07:58.579
of all, I start reaching out. I'm not going to
00:07:58.579 --> 00:08:01.160
pretty much tell how it's going to go, especially
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:03.120
when I'm meeting new people for the first time.
00:08:03.259 --> 00:08:05.180
I've had interviews that I've set up here in
00:08:05.180 --> 00:08:07.600
the last couple of weeks where they were supposed
00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:10.620
to come in person and didn't even show. and we
00:08:10.620 --> 00:08:12.779
had talked all week long about them showing up
00:08:12.779 --> 00:08:14.399
at a particular time place and then they hit
00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:16.560
you with that before an hour and a half. Oh,
00:08:16.620 --> 00:08:18.579
I'm not going to be able to make it. I got this
00:08:18.579 --> 00:08:20.319
and that. I'm like, okay, whatever. You know
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:22.779
what? If you're not serious, then you're not
00:08:22.779 --> 00:08:24.160
serious. You should have just said that from
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:26.779
the get go, especially when you are soliciting
00:08:26.779 --> 00:08:29.620
for people to come to you as far as to bring
00:08:29.620 --> 00:08:32.960
you to content and they provide a space for you
00:08:32.960 --> 00:08:35.360
to come and all you got to do is show up, record,
00:08:35.580 --> 00:08:37.490
do your thing. But that's a whole another story,
00:08:37.850 --> 00:08:39.649
like a whole another thing we'll get into as
00:08:39.649 --> 00:08:41.809
far as how you build your platform consistently
00:08:41.809 --> 00:08:44.830
and build your audience. But then, you know,
00:08:44.850 --> 00:08:47.330
you got people who just like I've had times where
00:08:47.330 --> 00:08:50.490
I text people an hour before, no response, 30
00:08:50.490 --> 00:08:52.049
minutes before, no response. I was like, OK,
00:08:52.149 --> 00:08:53.850
this is going to be a no -show. People, when
00:08:53.850 --> 00:08:55.870
you start dealing with people in large number
00:08:55.870 --> 00:08:58.909
of quantities, they all do the same thing. They're
00:08:58.909 --> 00:09:01.889
either about their business. Those are the two
00:09:01.889 --> 00:09:04.330
sides of the spectrum that they follow. And some
00:09:04.330 --> 00:09:05.809
people look at stuff like, you know, what, is
00:09:05.809 --> 00:09:07.250
this going to be my opportunity? And some people
00:09:07.250 --> 00:09:08.950
look at it like, you know, they let life control
00:09:08.950 --> 00:09:10.210
them instead of them controlling their life.
00:09:10.789 --> 00:09:14.110
And yes, emergencies do happen, but I've had
00:09:14.110 --> 00:09:16.029
to reschedule on people, right? But I've always
00:09:16.029 --> 00:09:18.230
told people in advance, even when I've had to
00:09:18.230 --> 00:09:20.590
do stuff like 30 minutes before, I apologize
00:09:20.590 --> 00:09:22.590
to them and I send them a link like, hey, you
00:09:22.590 --> 00:09:24.049
can go ahead and reschedule. Because I learned
00:09:24.049 --> 00:09:25.789
how to be more efficient with it. I give them
00:09:25.789 --> 00:09:27.590
the opportunity to be able to, you know, okay,
00:09:27.730 --> 00:09:29.929
cool. You know, and I try not to, I have not
00:09:29.929 --> 00:09:31.830
canceled on people multiple times in a row and
00:09:31.830 --> 00:09:33.950
stuff like that. And like I said, things happen,
00:09:34.450 --> 00:09:36.169
but at the end of the day, you prioritize what
00:09:36.169 --> 00:09:37.690
you want to do. Either you're going to control
00:09:37.690 --> 00:09:39.690
your life or your life is going to control you.
00:09:40.169 --> 00:09:43.049
And when you reach out to people multiple times
00:09:43.049 --> 00:09:44.970
throughout the week or a day, whatever the case
00:09:44.970 --> 00:09:47.210
may be, I mean, you start to get a feeling for,
00:09:47.289 --> 00:09:49.590
you know, okay, how this person operates. So,
00:09:49.649 --> 00:09:51.149
you know, you just have to pivot. So that's what
00:09:51.149 --> 00:09:53.289
we're doing today. Talking about, you know, pivot.
00:09:53.529 --> 00:09:55.269
Cause that's what I had to do. The work still
00:09:55.269 --> 00:09:56.929
has to be done. You know, you got to protect
00:09:56.929 --> 00:09:58.429
your credibility. You got to let the, you know,
00:09:58.549 --> 00:10:00.970
context speaks for itself. You got to keep moving.
00:10:01.809 --> 00:10:05.450
You know, like it's a grind up here. So if you
00:10:05.450 --> 00:10:08.769
want to achieve something, you gotta keep going.
00:10:08.950 --> 00:10:11.370
And that's what I did today, learning how to
00:10:11.370 --> 00:10:13.289
pivot and it's okay to pivot. There's nothing
00:10:13.289 --> 00:10:15.049
wrong with that. You know, you learn how to have
00:10:15.049 --> 00:10:17.720
a backup plan and you know what instead of like
00:10:17.720 --> 00:10:19.340
you know what i'm so tired of these gears blah
00:10:19.340 --> 00:10:21.559
blah whatever i'm gonna just pivot because i
00:10:21.559 --> 00:10:23.240
was thinking about doing solo episodes anyway
00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:25.259
because there's a lot of stuff out there that
00:10:25.259 --> 00:10:27.480
i think that should be covered that's not being
00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:31.690
covered and I can do it, go ahead, knock it out,
00:10:31.870 --> 00:10:34.070
get a little quick edit on it, put it out there
00:10:34.070 --> 00:10:36.330
and keep this train moving. And I want to, you
00:10:36.330 --> 00:10:37.850
know, just dive in a little bit about, you know,
00:10:37.970 --> 00:10:39.929
the different styles of podcasting where, you
00:10:39.929 --> 00:10:42.029
know, you do your solo episodes, you end up building
00:10:42.029 --> 00:10:44.529
your audience. Then you do your interview style.
00:10:44.990 --> 00:10:46.570
You have your industry style where, you know,
00:10:46.649 --> 00:10:48.190
I'm saying you rely on them guests and not all
00:10:48.190 --> 00:10:50.309
guests are created equal as far as like the way
00:10:50.309 --> 00:10:52.450
that they handle business on their end. And then
00:10:52.450 --> 00:10:55.779
you have your group or your duo. podcast where
00:10:55.779 --> 00:10:57.539
you're talking about you know i'm seeing various
00:10:57.539 --> 00:11:00.379
subjects matter as a group and discussing whether
00:11:00.379 --> 00:11:02.419
it be two three four five whatever it can be
00:11:02.419 --> 00:11:05.039
like the joe budd podcast it could be like you
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:07.740

00:11:07.740 --> 00:11:09.940

want to build this media empire. The only way
00:11:57.120 --> 00:11:59.740
it's going to be built about me putting in the
00:11:59.740 --> 00:12:02.879
reps like I constantly do and continuously do,
00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:05.940

00:12:05.940 --> 00:12:08.159
this synergy and then, you know, making the necessary
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:11.919
moves to put other people on, bring other people
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:14.519
on board. and going through that process as well,
00:12:14.539 --> 00:12:16.080
because I've been through it with other organizations.
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:19.299
