  • EP 278 Unlocking the Video Marketing Trifecta How to Build Trust and Drive Sales
    Sep 30 2025
    In this insightful episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, host Wize El Jefe welcomes Tim Bradley—co-founder of Pennant Video and creator of the Video Marketing Trifecta—for a masterclass in modern video marketing, authentic storytelling, and building impactful campaigns that drive real business results. Whether you’re a startup founder, B2B marketer, or any leader feeling “stuck” in the noisy world of digital marketing, this conversation is packed with actionable wisdom, practical frameworks, and a fresh perspective on connecting with audiences in today’s attention economy. A Marketer’s Journey: Tim Bradley’s Origin Story Wize El Jefe kicks off the episode with a warm welcome and immediately dives into Bradley’s journey. Tim recounts his early days, growing up with a dad who always had a camera at family gatherings, sparking an early love for visual storytelling. From making stop-motion Lego movies in the backyard as a kid to entering the world of YouTube just before its Google-era explosion, Tim found himself at the intersection of creativity and technology right as digital video was transforming how brands communicated. Leading Creative Teams: Lessons in Fast-Paced Storytelling Tim shares lessons from leading a 25-person creative team, detailing how high-speed, high-stakes content creation in video marketing taught him the importance of intentional storytelling. Unlike long-form narratives, he explains, most marketing videos have just 60 seconds to grab attention, build trust, and empower decisions. One key takeaway? No single video can do it all. Instead, the secret lies in delivering the right story, with the right information, at the right moment along the buyer’s journey. The ‘Aha’ Moment: Why One Video Is Never Enough For many businesses, the common mistake is packing too much into one video—trying to appeal to every stakeholder, answer every question, and check every marketing box. Tim describes how this leads to bloated, unfocused videos that end up being more like boring PowerPoint presentations than compelling narratives. His solution was to develop frameworks (and learn to say “no” to client bloat!), ultimately leading to the creation of his flagship approach: the Video Marketing Trifecta. Introducing the Video Marketing Trifecta Tim lays out the Trifecta framework—a strategic, repeatable system that breaks down B2B video content into three distinct but connected pieces: Anthem Videos: These flagship “why we exist” stories live atop websites and at the center of major events, rallying audiences by tapping into beliefs, values, and mission. They’re designed to speak to the audience’s heart and reflect the viewer’s aspirations back at them. Explainer Videos: Where anthem videos build emotional resonance, explainers serve the mind—clarifying “what do you do?” and “how do you do it?”, tailored for different roles, industries, or pain points. Endorsement Videos: The gut check and validation, where satisfied customers become storytellers. These testimonials are powerful trust-builders, showing prospects people like them succeeding with your solution. Together, these three content pillars differentiate, demonstrate value, and validate your brand, stitching together a buyer’s journey that doesn’t depend on just one magical piece of content. Solving Real Business Problems—Not Just Creating “Flashy Content” Tim makes a compelling distinction between flashy, high-production-value videos and genuinely effective content. The former might get attention, but if it isn’t audience-first and aligned with real buyer concerns, it’ll fall flat. Authentic storytelling, built on knowing your customer, using consistent frameworks, and grounding content in actual buyer needs, is where true ROI happens—especially in complex B2B sales that can last up to a year. Learning from Mistakes: Focus and Adaptability From failed attempts at all-in-one videos to wasting resources chasing every social channel, Tim is candid about how early missteps shaped his approach. Now, his focus is on being highly intentional—meeting audiences where they are, focusing efforts on platforms and moments that truly matter, and ensuring each piece of content has a clearly defined role. The Power of the Mid-Funnel: Unlocking Hidden Value One of the most powerful insights from the episode is Tim’s emphasis on the neglected “mid-funnel.” While brands invest heavily at the top (awareness/advertising) and bottom (customer nurturing/thought leadership), the critical middle—where trust is built, decisions are made, and engagement happens—often gets overlooked. This is where the Video Marketing Trifecta shines, filling a gap ignored by many in-house teams, especially in long B2B sales cycles. Actionable Advice for Startups and Small Budgets Tim’s advice isn’t just for Fortune 500s—he breaks down how startups and small businesses can apply the same principles. ...

  • EP 277 Clarity, Connections, and Entrepreneurship: Angela Lewis on Purpose-Driven Business Growth
    Sep 18 2025

    On this episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, host Wize El Jefe welcomes the multi-faceted strategist and entrepreneur Angela Lewis for a conversation overflowing with clarity, connection, and unexpected golden nuggets. What starts as a humorous mix-up – with Wize thinking Angela was a PR pro due to her knack for making connections – quickly unfolds into a powerful exploration of what it really takes to build, scale, and revitalize a business or brand from the inside out.

    Angela shares the real story behind her journey as the founder of Savvy Designs and The Pink Elephant Solution, underscoring her relentless drive to help businesses, creatives, and entrepreneurs not just survive but truly thrive. She unpacks how her background in art, consulting, and design evolved into strategic brand-building and developing accessible platforms to help businesses at every financial level lay solid foundations. Listeners get a window into Angela’s education at Harvard, her ongoing commitment to self-learning, and her mission to pass on deep-rooted business principles so that others can grow resilient organizations.

    Together, Angela and Wize discuss the common traps leaders fall into—like launching businesses without foundational skills or tactical structure, and failing to see the difference between an LLC and true liability protection. Angela’s advice is sharp: invest early in strategic accounting and legal support, and always focus on learning before leaping.

    But the conversation moves way beyond business nuts and bolts. Angela talks about the art of connecting people, the difference between transactional exchanges and lasting relationships, and how one’s personal journey and emotional health feed directly into entrepreneurial success. Wize opens up about his own life: losing loved ones, overcoming personal struggles, rediscovering his purpose through podcasting, and the true power of supporting others and being supportive in return.

    Whether it’s how to build an “elevator pitch,” navigate a rapidly changing business climate, make crucial pivots, or the importance of celebrating personal milestones and self-betterment, Angela delivers invaluable insights with warmth and contagious energy.

    If you’re an entrepreneur, leader, or creative who feels “stuck in your mind,” this episode is a masterclass in finding clarity, embracing connection, and choosing purpose-driven momentum over busywork. Tune in for a conversation that doesn’t just drop gems—it hands you the blueprint for building your own business legacy and living boldly, one intentional action at a time.

    Don’t miss this episode if you want tactical business wisdom, real talk about life’s rollercoasters, and inspiration to get out of your own way. Connect with Angela Lewis—aka The Real Angela Lewis—at Savvy Designs, The Pink Elephant Solution, or on social platforms, and keep following Stuck in My Mind for more mind-shifting conversations.

  • EP 276 From Food Stamps to Global Stages: Marianne Hickman’s Journey to Speaking Success
    Sep 11 2025
    In this powerful and uplifting episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, host Wize El Jefe welcomes international speaker, entrepreneur, and speaking coach Marianne Hickman. Known for her remarkable journey from food stamps in Utah to igniting stages in 17 countries, Marianne shares her authentic story of resilience, transformation, and the transformative magic of sharing your message with the world. A Journey Fueled by Hardship and Hope Marianne pulls listeners in with her unfiltered account of what life was like before her first intentional speaking opportunity. Growing up as the youngest of ten in a family of high achievers, Marianne describes the emotional and financial challenges that nearly broke her spirit—marriage and motherhood at an early age, raising five kids, concerning debt, and the humbling experience of relying on food stamps and government support. She humorously and candidly recounts driving the family’s old Mazda minivan through Provo, Utah, wrestling with frustration at “doing everything right” but still struggling financially. On that pivotal drive, she describes a personal, almost confrontational conversation with God: she demanded either a box of money on her porch or proximity to someone who could teach her “the money game.” Fate complied—not with cash, but with access to mentors and examples who showed her how to turn her personal story, pain, inspiration, and lessons into sustainable, purpose-driven speaking. Discovering the Power of Storytelling Marianne’s turning points didn’t come in the fashion of overnight success. She opens up about her early speaking opportunities, from her church putting her on stage as a child (admitting churches “knock the stage fright right out of you”), to attending seminars as a “seminar junkie” and stumbling accidentally into her first significant co-facilitator role. She shares a vivid anecdote about a seminar where she witnessed a speaker sell out $300 worth of resources to 700 people in a single session—redefining for her the possibilities of influence from the stage. But more than money or surface-level success, Marianne found her purpose in influence that creates real change. She connects the dots between mastering communication, having a message rooted in authentic experience, and the responsibility to use that message to help others transform their lives. Overcoming Fear & Transforming Mindset A key theme throughout the episode is the fear and self-doubt that come with stepping onto a stage—physical or virtual. Marianne boldly confesses to battling “me-centered” anxieties: Am I good enough? Will I forget my content? Does my outfit look okay? But she reveals a paradigm-shifting piece of wisdom: “Stage fright is inherently selfish.” By focusing less on herself and more on serving her audience, giving value, and tuning in to their needs, her nerves are transformed into purpose. She dives deep into the importance of mindset, using humorous and relatable family anecdotes (like being head-butted by a sheep at a photo shoot) to illustrate how what’s inside you gets squeezed out under pressure—onstage or off. For Marianne, developing a resilient mindset and sharing stories from a “healed scar, not an open wound,” are essential for authentic, impactful speaking. Lessons from Failure & the Power of Humor Marianne isn’t shy about her early speaking “cringe moments,” sharing how watching her old keynotes taught her humility and the value of self-compassion. She stresses the importance of ongoing learning and giving oneself permission to be funny and human—citing icons like Robin Williams as examples of using humor to make difficult topics accessible and healing. Building a Signature Message—and an Income With practical steps and hard-won wisdom, Marianne walks listeners through the essentials of building a signature presentation. She describes her 10-step keynote blueprint—an adaptable framework that brings stories, lessons, and audience participation together in a way that’s psychologically powerful and emotionally relevant. Marianne unpacks the different business models for speakers: the traditional stage fee route (getting paid for keynote sessions at associations or universities), and a more scalable, sustainable approach—offering resources, free tools, or courses to your audience as a seamless next step after speaking. She even shares how simple tools and free resources (like her podcast database) can organically lead to recurring revenue by fulfilling audience needs. Advice for Aspiring Speakers For anyone terrified of public speaking, Marianne’s advice is refreshingly simple and actionable: Get the reps in. Start small by going live on social media for two minutes a day—practice is the only way through the fear. She assures listeners that everyone starts small, and reminds us, “Even if no one shows up, just do it anyway.” Authenticity and impact, according to Marianne, come ...
