1
00:00:01,100 –> 00:00:12,450

00:00:03,419 –> 00:00:14,250
speakers on the Alexis speakers on no no

3
00:00:12,450 –> 00:00:15,960
we’re thinking about oh there we go now

4
00:00:14,250 –> 00:00:18,029
you can say good morning because it

5
00:00:15,960 –> 00:00:19,560
looked up guys good morning so it’s

6
00:00:18,029 –> 00:00:21,090
talking to John here about what we’re

7
00:00:19,560 –> 00:00:23,430
going to be putting together for the

8
00:00:21,090 –> 00:00:27,660
Facebook Ads strategy and landing pages

9
00:00:23,430 –> 00:00:30,480
and everything videos the whole thing so

10
00:00:27,660 –> 00:00:32,790
is good good ties I didn’t get the

11
00:00:30,480 –> 00:00:37,410
workout this morning but alright I will

12
00:00:32,790 –> 00:00:39,780
catch up with both of you very soon I so

13
00:00:37,410 –> 00:00:44,510
I got to go get my garage door opener

14
00:00:39,780 –> 00:00:44,510
today because I left it in the loaner

15
00:00:45,500 –> 00:00:54,180
battery good come on

16
00:00:48,620 –> 00:00:56,820
and great honky Tonk go get it I’ve

17
00:00:54,180 –> 00:00:58,770
taken the UH the GoPro with me today so

18
00:00:56,820 –> 00:01:03,300
we could get some shots of driving

19
00:00:58,770 –> 00:01:07,729
towards the city if I can I’m not sure

20
00:01:03,300 –> 00:01:07,729
how to mount it though look I have this

21
00:01:07,880 –> 00:01:13,439
car can thing but to get this in and out

22
00:01:11,159 –> 00:01:14,610
of the car would be would be tough and I

23
00:01:13,439 –> 00:01:20,670
kind of want more of a side angle

24
00:01:14,610 –> 00:01:23,189
because of how I come into into Camden

25
00:01:20,670 –> 00:01:25,560
and Philly’s on the left-hand side so

26
00:01:23,189 –> 00:01:30,030
what I feel I can kind of mount this on

27
00:01:25,560 –> 00:01:31,320
the way way over there so I had a really

28
00:01:30,030 –> 00:01:33,000
great conversation with John this

29
00:01:31,320 –> 00:01:34,979
morning um looks like we’re going to

30
00:01:33,000 –> 00:01:36,090
make some very real progress very very

31
00:01:34,979 –> 00:01:37,409
quickly

32
00:01:36,090 –> 00:01:39,450
looks like starting Monday we’ll be

33
00:01:37,409 –> 00:01:41,490
running Facebook ads right people

34
00:01:39,450 –> 00:01:44,130
getting this content and all the other

35
00:01:41,490 –> 00:01:47,780
content and everything else out into the

36
00:01:44,130 –> 00:01:50,549
market um really well market people

37
00:01:47,780 –> 00:01:51,479
places things I don’t know if we’re

38
00:01:50,549 –> 00:01:54,750
going to get it out to the right people

39
00:01:51,479 –> 00:01:57,119
that’s that’s the goal and I think we’re

40
00:01:54,750 –> 00:01:59,080
going to really be able to accomplish

41
00:01:57,119 –> 00:02:01,360
that goal

42
00:01:59,080 –> 00:02:03,250
pretty easily considering that John

43
00:02:01,360 –> 00:02:06,580
seems really know what he’s doing

44
00:02:03,250 –> 00:02:08,920
and I got a lot of trust in the respect

45
00:02:06,580 –> 00:02:14,860
forum so looking forward to working with

46
00:02:08,919 –> 00:02:19,260
him was so today those things I was

47
00:02:14,860 –> 00:02:22,900

55
00:02:45,790 –> 00:02:49,330
in the Northeast he’ll dry outside

56
00:02:47,410 –> 00:02:52,930
ability done the first two years we’ve

57
00:02:49,330 –> 00:02:54,850
had international people come in people

58
00:02:52,930 –> 00:02:57,549
from all across the country it’s been a

59
00:02:54,850 –> 00:02:59,380
really awesome event and I really have

60
00:02:57,549 –> 00:03:01,269
enjoyed doing it I mean I haven’t made a

61
00:02:59,380 –> 00:03:04,180
ton of money at it but that broke even

62
00:03:01,269 –> 00:03:08,070
in the first two years across the first

63
00:03:04,180 –> 00:03:12,370
two years which is really not bad at all

64
00:03:08,070 –> 00:03:14,650
anyway I I just really loved content

65
00:03:12,370 –> 00:03:16,329
creation and podcasting and all that so

66
00:03:14,650 –> 00:03:18,340
I wanted to put together an event called

67
00:03:16,329 –> 00:03:20,549
called middle and podcast conference so

68
00:03:18,340 –> 00:03:24,310
it sounds official and it sounds like

69
00:03:20,549 –> 00:03:27,760
it’s meant to be or whatever whatever so

70
00:03:24,310 –> 00:03:29,380
anyway I did that two years ago we held

71
00:03:27,760 –> 00:03:32,440
our first conference in a school

72
00:03:29,380 –> 00:03:35,590
gymnasium that I was able to get for

73
00:03:32,440 –> 00:03:36,760
free so that it was nice and cheap but

74
00:03:35,590 –> 00:03:39,269
in order together for free I had to

75
00:03:36,760 –> 00:03:43,090
teach a podcasting course at the school

76
00:03:39,269 –> 00:03:44,650
it was a Catholic school so it was it

77
00:03:43,090 –> 00:03:46,420
was a neat experience so I’m glad I got

78
00:03:44,650 –> 00:03:51,209
to do it because I I was able to add

79
00:03:46,420 –> 00:03:55,090
like works with youth under Leo under my

80
00:03:51,209 –> 00:03:56,450
under my might present a repertoire

81
00:03:55,090 –> 00:04:00,799
thing

82
00:03:56,450 –> 00:04:03,459
and and so it was a neat experience took

83
00:04:00,799 –> 00:04:05,420
up a ton of time but but definitely was

84
00:04:03,459 –> 00:04:07,700
something I cherished if you want to

85
00:04:05,420 –> 00:04:10,250
check out those classes I actually

86
00:04:07,700 –> 00:04:13,159
recorded all of them on video and are on

87
00:04:10,250 –> 00:04:16,699
YouTube so if you go to like super joe

88
00:04:13,159 –> 00:04:18,560
parr TOCOM slash project Swartz goes to

89
00:04:16,699 –> 00:04:20,419
Purdue Park on the project and operate

90
00:04:18,560 –> 00:04:22,520

91
00:04:20,418 –> 00:04:25,430
miscellaneous it’s a podcast at school

92
00:04:22,520 –> 00:04:27,770
or support yeah I guess is going this we

93
00:04:25,430 –> 00:04:31,039
want the kids through how to create a

94
00:04:27,770 –> 00:04:33,440
podcast step by step and we we picked

95
00:04:31,039 –> 00:04:35,090

96
00:04:33,440 –> 00:04:36,620

those skills and eight date record I

102
00:04:45,949 –> 00:04:49,849
think we got like three episodes in

103
00:04:47,710 –> 00:04:52,550
before we had stopped because the school

104
00:04:49,849 –> 00:04:54,889
musical kind of over and time starting

105
00:04:52,550 –> 00:04:57,259
to get become a factor and then it was

106
00:04:54,889 –> 00:04:59,840
then you know that was the school year

107
00:04:57,259 –> 00:05:02,289

108
00:04:59,840 –> 00:05:04,970

109
00:05:02,289 –> 00:05:06,440

181
00:08:59,140 –> 00:09:03,430
glad I thought it’s gonna be wonderful

182
00:09:00,790 –> 00:09:07,240
but I didn’t plan for was the fact that

183
00:09:03,430 –> 00:09:09,640
our daughter was being born in March and

184
00:09:07,240 –> 00:09:11,860
I wasn’t doing anything about any of the

185
00:09:09,640 –> 00:09:13,990
stuff that I had planned as far as like

186
00:09:11,860 –> 00:09:18,060
I thought I’d like you to handle it and

187
00:09:13,990 –> 00:09:20,530
I just I got a I guess I got overwhelmed

188
00:09:18,060 –> 00:09:22,240
you know having a new daughter trying to

189
00:09:20,530 –> 00:09:24,640
balance that with trying to balance like

190
00:09:22,240 –> 00:09:26,290
keeping all the work things I had going

191
00:09:24,640 –> 00:09:28,510
on all the current project I had going

192
00:09:26,290 –> 00:09:30,310
on and this idea that I was going to go

193
00:09:28,510 –> 00:09:31,960
and do these events which weren’t going

194
00:09:30,310 –> 00:09:33,640
to be cheap unless they were like hey

195
00:09:31,960 –> 00:09:36,820
let’s meet in a park which would have

196
00:09:33,640 –> 00:09:37,930
been great except with the park like it

197
00:09:36,820 –> 00:09:39,400
could have totally agree

198
00:09:37,930 –> 00:09:40,780
so I had like this plan which that’s a

199
00:09:39,400 –> 00:09:42,820
good compliment I’m saying alright well

200
00:09:40,780 –> 00:09:44,350
let’s let’s try down the DC and that

201
00:09:42,820 –> 00:09:46,540
will have the Baltimore on the next day

202
00:09:44,350 –> 00:09:50,080
and it’ll you know we’ll just drive back

203
00:09:46,540 –> 00:09:52,090
and it’ll be great and you know we were

204
00:09:50,080 –> 00:09:55,830
able to get one at one place I think in

205
00:09:52,090 –> 00:09:58,150
Baltimore we we we had secured a place

206
00:09:55,830 –> 00:10:00,790
but picking a place in the city that

207
00:09:58,150 –> 00:10:02,380
you’ve never been is really tough and

208
00:10:00,790 –> 00:10:04,690
its really time consuming and I had to

209
00:10:02,380 –> 00:10:07,480
make quite a few phone calls and just

210
00:10:04,690 –> 00:10:09,290
wasn’t going to work out so sadly and I

211
00:10:07,480 –> 00:10:11,680
hate feeling defeated

212
00:10:09,290 –> 00:10:16,220
I really I really hate feeling defeated

213
00:10:11,680 –> 00:10:20,860
but I decided that I was going to

214
00:10:16,220 –> 00:10:25,340
relinquish it and and just say okay well

215
00:10:20,860 –> 00:10:27,890
I couldn’t pull it off I thought I could

216
00:10:25,340 –> 00:10:29,930
but the whole having a baby thing to go

217
00:10:27,890 –> 00:10:31,610
over more time and and everything that I

218
00:10:29,930 –> 00:10:35,660
really bought it was what I really

219
00:10:31,610 –> 00:10:37,460
didn’t like yet overnight something was

220
00:10:35,660 –> 00:10:40,850
just going to add to my cause and I

221
00:10:37,460 –> 00:10:43,130
wasn’t confident in whether or not I was

222
00:10:40,850 –> 00:10:44,810
going to be over at those cost see we

223
00:10:43,130 –> 00:10:48,470
thought about business lessons here all

224
00:10:44,810 –> 00:10:49,730
my daily walks that’s it’s in my DNA so

225
00:10:48,470 –> 00:10:51,620
I wasn’t sure that I was going to be

226
00:10:49,730 –> 00:10:54,650
able to recoup all my cost make it work

227
00:10:51,620 –> 00:10:56,840
in a way that made a lot of sense so

228
00:10:54,650 –> 00:10:58,370
ultimately I decided to can eight and

229
00:10:56,840 –> 00:11:01,220
was like you know what let’s start up a

230
00:10:58,370 –> 00:11:03,830
podcast instead to promote a podcast

231
00:11:01,220 –> 00:11:06,680
conference so I did that had a great

232
00:11:03,830 –> 00:11:08,720
time doing it we finished now just after

233
00:11:06,680 –> 00:11:11,750
the pot after the conference we finished

234
00:11:08,720 –> 00:11:14,060
out doing the episodes and we haven’t

235
00:11:11,750 –> 00:11:21,410
started up since because I you know been

236
00:11:14,060 –> 00:11:23,900
really literally busy so so yeah so so I

237
00:11:21,410 –> 00:11:26,000
talked to Amy I was like hey you know

238
00:11:23,900 –> 00:11:31,040
I’d still love to have this this podcast

239
00:11:26,000 –> 00:11:34,760
go off but I can’t do that if if we’re

240
00:11:31,040 –> 00:11:36,290
going to look like time right now is the

241
00:11:34,760 –> 00:11:38,330
problem so I asked like hey you’re a

242
00:11:36,290 –> 00:11:39,220
podcaster you love podcasting you’ll

243
00:11:38,330 –> 00:11:42,080
interview people

244
00:11:39,220 –> 00:11:43,430
why don’t you want you know she wants to

245
00:11:42,080 –> 00:11:45,710
help out in any way she can like why

246
00:11:43,430 –> 00:11:47,000
don’t you take over the the podcast so

247
00:11:45,710 –> 00:11:49,910
we’re going to do an episode tonight

248
00:11:47,000 –> 00:11:51,620
talk basically where I interview her

249
00:11:49,910 –> 00:11:53,870
because I didn’t interview her for the

250
00:11:51,620 –> 00:11:56,870
last season of the middle and podcast

251
00:11:53,870 –> 00:11:58,670
conference this season season two I will

252
00:11:56,870 –> 00:12:00,770
interview her first and will announce

253
00:11:58,670 –> 00:12:04,820
that she will be taking over the reins

254
00:12:00,770 –> 00:12:08,000
for the show it’s the first show that

255
00:12:04,820 –> 00:12:09,800
I’m giving the reins over to someone

256
00:12:08,000 –> 00:12:12,529
else to run

257
00:12:09,800 –> 00:12:15,140
and and I’m super proud that it’s it’s

258
00:12:12,529 –> 00:12:17,769
my friend Amy like I’m really excited

259
00:12:15,140 –> 00:12:20,240
that she’s going to be doing this for me

260
00:12:17,769 –> 00:12:22,130
and for us and for the for the

261
00:12:20,240 –> 00:12:25,100
conference see the thing about map con

262
00:12:22,130 –> 00:12:29,269
is it’s really a community event like

263
00:12:25,100 –> 00:12:31,220
it’s not set up for me to make a ton of

264
00:12:29,269 –> 00:12:33,920
money the only way I would make a ton of

265
00:12:31,220 –> 00:12:37,070
ton of money is if I could flood the

266
00:12:33,920 –> 00:12:39,980
doors and have like 4 or 500 people and

267
00:12:37,070 –> 00:12:40,850
I co I I mean I believe that we could

268
00:12:39,980 –> 00:12:42,829
totally do that

269
00:12:40,850 –> 00:12:46,399
um there’s other conferences out there

270
00:12:42,829 –> 00:12:51,769
shout out the podcast movement out to a

271
00:12:46,399 –> 00:12:55,610
podcast Media Expo and child easy

272
00:12:51,769 –> 00:12:57,170
podcast and Philly pod fest and there’s

273
00:12:55,610 –> 00:12:58,279
so many other great ones out there and

274
00:12:57,170 –> 00:13:02,149
there’s other ones that want to get

275
00:12:58,279 –> 00:13:03,920
started um the reason that I was able to

276
00:13:02,149 –> 00:13:07,160
do is because I have an event background

277
00:13:03,920 –> 00:13:09,290
right like I grew up being a part of

278
00:13:07,160 –> 00:13:12,230
these events at my grandparents business

279
00:13:09,290 –> 00:13:13,880
so we would do annual events and there’d

280
00:13:12,230 –> 00:13:16,970
be like a thousand people that would

281
00:13:13,880 –> 00:13:20,270
descend on to this local catering hall

282
00:13:16,970 –> 00:13:22,520
which it sounds it’s a lot nicer than

283
00:13:20,270 –> 00:13:24,200
the hall it’s on a lake it’s it’s really

284
00:13:22,520 –> 00:13:26,060
upscale it’s like one of the biggest

285
00:13:24,200 –> 00:13:29,209
places you can have a wedding at in the

286
00:13:26,060 –> 00:13:30,620
area it’s super awesome when we’re like

287
00:13:29,209 –> 00:13:37,690
family friends with the people there on

288
00:13:30,620 –> 00:13:39,880
it so anyway it’s

289
00:13:37,690 –> 00:13:42,430
so that’s that background and then the

290
00:13:39,880 –> 00:13:45,700
background of like posting land parties

291
00:13:42,430 –> 00:13:49,150
and hosting a Danielle

292
00:13:45,700 –> 00:13:50,740
like many rains and all these things

293
00:13:49,150 –> 00:13:54,370
like I’ve done all these different types

294
00:13:50,740 –> 00:13:56,950
of events and um and even working at

295
00:13:54,370 –> 00:14:00,280
like Katsucon one year and working at

296
00:13:56,950 –> 00:14:02,410
other land parties that were like 256

297
00:14:00,280 –> 00:14:03,670
people 512 people that took their

298
00:14:02,410 –> 00:14:06,040
computers and they bring them to the

299
00:14:03,670 –> 00:14:08,680
hall and hook them all up and you know

300
00:14:06,040 –> 00:14:11,110
even hosting my own so it’s like I have

301
00:14:08,680 –> 00:14:12,730
a ton of experience in doing that kind

302
00:14:11,110 –> 00:14:15,940
of stuff so for me it’s just it just

303
00:14:12,730 –> 00:14:17,830
makes sense the thing is is well you

304
00:14:15,940 –> 00:14:19,860
know I’m really happy and proud that I

305
00:14:17,830 –> 00:14:22,360
was able to break even first two years I

306
00:14:19,860 –> 00:14:24,400
you know I’m okay with a growing

307
00:14:22,360 –> 00:14:26,440
naturally and organically over the years

308
00:14:24,400 –> 00:14:28,030
like I didn’t I don’t I didn’t need it

309
00:14:26,440 –> 00:14:31,360
to be a home run for me because what I

310
00:14:28,030 –> 00:14:35,800
seen was well I could invest a ton of

311
00:14:31,360 –> 00:14:41,350
money ton of money in a marketing and

312
00:14:35,800 –> 00:14:43,510
ton of money in an event stuff paying

313
00:14:41,350 –> 00:14:45,400
staff and all that and I’m like it

314
00:14:43,510 –> 00:14:48,430
doesn’t need to be like if this is going

315
00:14:45,400 –> 00:14:50,590
to grow year over year because we do it

316
00:14:48,430 –> 00:14:52,240
differently like one of the things that

317
00:14:50,590 –> 00:14:54,460
we do differently as we have the podcast

318
00:14:52,240 –> 00:14:57,550
competition right so you have like 15

319
00:14:54,460 –> 00:14:59,710
minutes or 15 20 minutes to work we’re

320
00:14:57,550 –> 00:15:02,440
like for other people to put together a

321
00:14:59,710 –> 00:15:03,670
five-minute podcast episode and it can

322
00:15:02,440 –> 00:15:05,410
be off the wall the whole idea is

323
00:15:03,670 –> 00:15:08,050
creativity so you got like an item and

324
00:15:05,410 –> 00:15:09,550
you have to come up with a with a with a

325
00:15:08,050 –> 00:15:12,370
theme for the show based around that

326
00:15:09,550 –> 00:15:14,290
item or you have to incorporate items

327
00:15:12,370 –> 00:15:16,030
into it that you don’t know what those

328
00:15:14,290 –> 00:15:18,670
items are until you get them in the bag

329
00:15:16,030 –> 00:15:22,480
so it’s things it’s all things like that

330
00:15:18,670 –> 00:15:26,440
that just create a much different

331
00:15:22,480 –> 00:15:27,840
atmosphere then they talk you listen all

332
00:15:26,440 –> 00:15:33,000
day and

333
00:15:27,840 –> 00:15:35,130
and that’s that’s the bank so so I I’ve

334
00:15:33,000 –> 00:15:36,630
learned quite a few things over the last

335
00:15:35,130 –> 00:15:38,340
six months and I’m really looking

336
00:15:36,630 –> 00:15:39,810
forward to incorporating some of those

337
00:15:38,340 –> 00:15:41,580
in the map I haven’t figured out what

338
00:15:39,810 –> 00:15:46,910
the schedules to look like we still are

339
00:15:41,580 –> 00:15:46,910
accepting um we still are accepting

340
00:15:47,660 –> 00:15:52,110
speaker submission so if you go to like

341
00:15:50,130 –> 00:15:57,210
I think it’s middle and podcast.com

342
00:15:52,110 –> 00:16:02,670
slash apply I think pretty sure you can

343
00:15:57,210 –> 00:16:10,740
submit to be a speaker at map con the

344
00:16:02,670 –> 00:16:14,820
other thing is we are we we’re really

345
00:16:10,740 –> 00:16:16,710
looking for people that have had some

346
00:16:14,820 –> 00:16:18,240
like really interesting topics they want

347
00:16:16,710 –> 00:16:22,170
to talk about something you don’t

348
00:16:18,240 –> 00:16:24,060
necessarily hear everyone talk about so

349
00:16:22,170 –> 00:16:25,770
so if you have something that’s like

350
00:16:24,060 –> 00:16:27,180
colorful there’s a bunch of ideas there

351
00:16:25,770 –> 00:16:28,410
too if you go there like this is the

352
00:16:27,180 –> 00:16:30,029
kind of topics that we’re looking for

353
00:16:28,410 –> 00:16:34,589
there’s more than I can think about top

354
00:16:30,029 –> 00:16:36,650
my head so so I’m curious for anybody

355
00:16:34,589 –> 00:16:39,660
who’s watching this still 15 minutes in

356
00:16:36,650 –> 00:16:42,990
what I’m curious about is do you have

357
00:16:39,660 –> 00:16:44,160
any events that you host and if so why

358
00:16:42,990 –> 00:16:45,930
don’t you go ahead and post them and

359
00:16:44,160 –> 00:16:49,560
leave in the comments below whether it’s

360
00:16:45,930 –> 00:16:52,320
on YouTube or secure comm or Facebook or

361
00:16:49,560 –> 00:16:54,900
wherever you’re watching this why don’t

362
00:16:52,320 –> 00:16:56,250
you why don’t you drop that in there in
