And Now For Manythings Completely Different

And Now For Manythings Completely Different

After staying (mostly) on one topic for over a month, this one is a (mostly) easy breezy, somewhat random collection of stuff!

Instagram Likes Pictures Again!

Have your Reels been doing poorly lately? You aren’t alone! Reels views are down 20%. And apparently that’s the point where Meta said “Okay, we did good with copying Snapchat but trying to be TikTok just isn’t working for us”

So dump those weekend photos to your heart’s content again!

(I just realized “content” and “content” are spelled the same and my lord, isn’t that irony!)

Producing an Album/Special

My next longform “podcast” style video is about producing an album or special!

I spoke with Mike Finoia, Candi Clare, Katie Boyle and Andy Fiori for insight on planning your material, logistics, working with labels, costs and how to make that money back!

It’ll release next Sunday on my YouTube channel. Given the above, I don’t plan to post as many clips on IG so be sure to subscribe so you can catch it! (I mean, I’ll totally be putting a link in next week’s newsletter too)

I am genuinely thrilled that people have been embarking on some of all of Spring Cleaning Your Career!

On the other hand, I feel terrible that for some people it felt like another looming and intimidating thing to do!

You don’t have to do it all in 4 weeks. You don’t have to do it right now. You don’t have to do it at all!

But if it’s something you’d like to give a try at some point in the future, at your own pace, I’ve gathered the full series of newsletters, video and worksheets in one place so you can go back to it whenever you want without trawling through your email or my archive.

And now let me be the bummer at the BBQ… Memorial Day is indented to honor the military dead, but I think it brings up thoughts of anyone you’ve lost in many of us.

So here’s a little reminder to take care of your own mental health and check in on your friends. 💛
