Al #009 If you've tuned in to last week's AskLiz session, you know I'm big on partnerships as the number one way to grow your email list and brand. Today's episode is very much meant to drive that point home with an interesting collaboration idea coming from Allan Ngo of DigitalSolopreneur.com! If you have a talk lined up at a virtual summit, can you partner up with some of the other speakers for win-win cross-promotion? I absolutely love this line of thought! But how do you pull it off without appearing self-interested or sleazy? Listen in on this quick session for my thoughts on how I would approach a virtual summit opportunity like this! I'll share the exact DM I'd send out proposing no-brainer partnerships and the top ways to leverage this kind of networking for targeted growth. Enjoy, and please keep sending your questions in at SpeakPipe.com/LizWilcox!

#940 Liz and I are going head-to-head today and comparing our very different audience growth approaches! As you know, I'm all about posting daily. Especially since I've seen huge success creating Shorts for YouTube. After all, two million subscribers with just fifteen minutes of work per day is pretty good! Liz, on the other hand, is much more of a stealth operator. Her targeted growth is based on finding the right collaborators for strategies like lead magnet swaps, virtual speaking, and podcast guesting. She values her email list way more than any follower count! And the truth is, both of these approaches could work. That's why you should join us for this session to uncover and choose the growth tactic that resonates the most with you! So how do you build consistency to post every day? Alternatively, how do you network across to build your audience brick-by-brick? Tune in to find out!

AL #008 Just post more! That's the most common piece of advice new creators get flooded with while trying to grow an email list. Here's the thing, though. You'll get there eventually, especially if you post daily. But why not be smart about your growth right from the get-go? Listen in on today's AskLiz session for a chat on the highest-leverage tactics that can get you more subscribers without extra content creation! Because, y'all, I'm no Pat Flynn. I'm very sporadic on socials and still managed to grow my email list without spending a dime on ads. The secret? Strategic partnerships! Today, I'll walk you through the top ways to network and partner up with other creators for win-win growth. From freebie swaps to co-creating products, I've used every single one of these opportunities to level up my business. So tune in to set yourself up for new growth!

#939 Wow. You're in for a special episode because we're talking about a still mostly untapped opportunity that has to be the easiest passive income you can earn online right now! The best part is that the barrier to entry is so low that you can start generating revenue whenever! So listen in to hear today's guest, Kathleen Kobel, share an inside look at her incredible success posting videos to Amazon. That's right. This opportunity is all about creating short, one- to two-minute product reviews to help shoppers make a purchase decision. On your end, you don't have to have your face on camera or do a bunch of editing! You also don't need to put in any work to promote your videos. The Amazon Influencer Program will get eyeballs on your content by default! This is something you can dip your toes in or even go full-time with, so don't miss out!

AL #007 Live streams are a powerful way to grow and connect with your audience. But how do you take it a step further and turn your lives into evergreen content? More importantly, how do you do it without creating a whole bunch more work for yourself? Done right, a single stream can be repurposed into weeks of valuable posts. That's why I always say you have to begin with the end in mind! For my tips on how to do just that, listen in on today's AskLiz session. I'll share the Ecamm Live trick you should use to create Shorts and long-form videos in one go, and I'll help you map out your streams in advance for easy-to-clip highlights. If you've been struggling to post often enough, this might be the missing piece of the puzzle for you. Don't miss out!

#938 Learning comes from the action you take, not the research you do! That's the theme of today's special episode, where I answer your questions on everything from content creation to live events. If you've been struggling to post consistently, been wondering if selling merch is right for your brand, or want to know when it's time for your first hire, listen in! Our incredible Director of Community, Liz Wilcox, is joining me for this throwback to the AskPat days. And that's exactly where we start. I'll share why I couldn't be more excited to have Liz coming on as my co-host after flying solo for so many years, but there's much more to take away from this session! I discuss finding and focusing on an MVPC, your minimum viable piece of content, to beat perfectionism and procrastination. I also share a look at the massive growth of my Card Party conventions and why bringing people together live is the most rewarding thing you can do as a creator. Tune in!

#937 Today's guest has built and scaled a business up to eight figures before he even started an Instagram account. But now, this anti-personal-brand guy is changing his mind and putting himself out there. The question is, why now? What's changed, and what is the risk of running a faceless company in 2026? Listen in on this interview with Chandler Bolt of selfpublishing.com to find out! In this session, Chandler shares his journey from bestselling author to massively successful entrepreneur who helps thousands of writers publish their books. As you'll hear, Chandler's all about delivering results at scale.
