Thank you to The Commons for hosting our How to Start a Podcast class yesterday.

Podcasting can be a great funnel for your business and/or a great outlet for you to share a passion with the world, but if you don’t do the work leading up to starting your podcast, you may be part of the 92% that don’t get past 10 episodes.

If anyone would be interested in a virtual class, comment “podcast” here. If there is enough interest, I’ll schedule a class.

It went so fast and I’m so sad that today is the last day with Natalie and Nadiyah. I can’t say enough amazing things about these interns. What an incredible experience to work with them all semester. They were literally the best interns I could have hoped for.

You two have incredible futures ahead of you. I can’t wait to see what you can do!

Blurring an image background can be a cool design touch. It can also hide things in the background of your pictures that you don’t want seen like a messy house, extra people in the background, etc.

There are probably lots of ways to accomplish this but this has been the easiest way for me. Hope it helps!!

It’s so important to be searchable! It creates trust that you are who you say you are.

A website, GMB and social media go a long way toward building your brand and a reputation for your business.

Is your industry a target for ADA lawsuits?

Lately, we’ve seen a massive spike in “digital accessibility” lawsuits. While any website can be targeted, certain types of businesses are seeing much higher volumes of legal demand letters.

If you fall into these categories, your website needs to be a priority:
🛒 E-commerce & Retail: From boutique shops to big brands, if you sell products online, you’re the #1 target.
🍴 Restaurants: Online menus and reservation systems are frequent flashpoints.
🏨 Travel & Hospitality: Hotels and booking sites are heavily scrutinized for accessibility.
💰 Finance & Real Estate: Banks, credit unions, and property listings are under a legal magnifying glass.

The Reality: Serial plaintiffs often use bots to scan sites for “low-hanging fruit” like missing alt-text or non-navigable menus. If your site isn’t WCAG 2.1 compliant, you’re essentially leaving your front door unlocked.

Don’t wait for a lawsuit to make your brand inclusive. Accessibility is good for your customers, great for your SEO, and vital for your legal protection.

There are probably other ways to do this, like knowing the hex code for your brand colors, but this is so easy. Take a screenshot of your brand colors in Canva or save a picture of your logo to your camera roll and you can match your colors easily on reels.

Let me know what else you need tutorials on. I’m happy to share!
