A sudden layoff can shatter your plans—or sharpen them. When LinkedIn branding and sales coach Melissa Gaglione decided to aim for $30K in 30 days, she didn’t hide behind a polished funnel. She built in public, shared every step, and turned documentation into momentum. We dig into how she paired relatable, human content with tight, personalized video outreach to create trust at scale and conversions that cold calls rarely deliver.

We unpack the two-year foundation that made the leap possible: an hour-a-day side hustle, steady posting that felt like a person not a pitch, and early experiments with courses, events, and brand partnerships. Melissa explains why she launched eight offers at once to test both company and individual demand, and how the data—and her energy—pulled her toward a flagship cohort model focused on personal branding and social selling for B2B creators, founders, and sellers.

If you’re curious about where AI truly fits, Melissa shares the practical side: using tools like Claude and ChatGPT to accelerate research, drafts, CRM notes, and content ops, while outsourcing editing and admin to stay focused on relationships. We also get candid about the mindset work after a layoff—using a public goal to rebuild self-trust, choosing challenges you can sustain, and resisting the highlight-reel trap by showing the path, not just the prizes.

Ready to design your own leap? Listen, take notes, and then tell us the 30-day goal you’d commit to publicly. If this conversation helped, follow, share with a friend who needs a push, and leave a quick review so more builders can find the show.

We share the AI tools we actually use, how we stack them, and the prompts that save hours each week. From meeting capture to decks, video clipping, and research, we show where each model fits and how to publish more with less effort.

• using read.ai to capture meetings and send summaries
• turning transcripts into to-do lists and follow-ups with ChatGPT
• building decks in minutes with Gamma to save production time

• importing book PDFs to guide strategy and tone

The digital revolution waits for no one. Whether you're embracing it or avoiding it, your professional future is increasingly tied to how effectively you leverage content creation, social media, and emerging AI tools.

In this candid conversation, we explore the launch of Content Crib RX – our solution for professionals struggling to maintain content consistency while navigating the rapidly evolving digital landscape. We've witnessed countless passionate professionals leave our Content Crib meetups energized, only to have their momentum fizzle as life's demands take priority. Our new program bridges this gap by combining practical content strategies with AI-powered tools that save precious time.

Social selling has fundamentally transformed B2B relationships, yet many professionals still question its legitimacy. As we discuss, platforms like LinkedIn have become essential marketplaces where authority is built through consistent, valuable content. The barriers to entry are lower than ever – anyone can start building their personal brand without expensive marketing budgets – but the challenge lies in finding your authentic voice and maintaining consistency.

Perhaps most eye-opening is our discussion about AI's impact on the professional landscape. While the statistics are sobering (14% of workers displaced by AI this year alone, with projections of 85 million jobs replaced by year-end), we highlight the extraordinary opportunities emerging alongside these challenges. The most promising path forward? Learning to leverage AI tools to enhance productivity, particularly in ways that help small businesses improve operations.

Our Content Crib Copilot AI agent exemplifies this approach – meticulously trained to align with our teaching methodologies and help users ideate content, streamline scheduling, and implement effective digital strategies. As one podcast guest wisely suggested: if you had $1,000 to invest today, your best bet might be learning an AI tool you could implement for small businesses.

• Why everyone is in sales, whether selling products or their personal brand
• How to recognize when prospects have structural reasons preventing immediate purchases
• Building effective personal brands on LinkedIn while providing genuine value
• Creating trust through consistency rather than forced familiarity

Derek Berkey, founder of Invigor Medical, shares how he's building trust in healthcare through personal branding and consistent education while navigating an industry often defined by its worst actors. Through his transparent approach to complex telehealth and compounding topics, Derek demonstrates how showing up authentically creates meaningful connections and business opportunities.

• Grew from 1,000 to 6,000 LinkedIn followers in just seven months by providing value rather than trying to extract it
• Uses AI as a tool to amplify his voice while maintaining authenticity and adding his unique perspective
• Started career as a caregiver, witnessing healthcare challenges firsthand which now fuels his mission
• Emphasizes that healthcare interventions only work when combined with proper lifestyle changes
• Chose LinkedIn because it allows for deeper, more nuanced conversations about complex topics
• Creates content by finding interesting topics, researching deeply, and sharing surprising facts with practical applications
• Believes personal branding is essential because "people want to do business with people, not corporations"
• Recommends providing value and giving others a platform to share their expertise rather than flexing your own credibility

The line between authentic and artificial content has never been more significant. As digital platforms evolve, they're increasingly favoring genuine human connection over polished perfection—and savvy marketers and sales professionals are taking notice.

In this revealing conversation, we dive deep into why YouTube is now pushing authentic, educational content to the forefront while demoting AI-generated videos. This shift mirrors what we've been advocating through personalized video platforms like Medical Sales RX and Virtual Sales RX for years: humanity wins, every time.

We share practical insights about overcoming the fear of content creation, with a simple yet powerful approach to getting started: just pick up your phone and start recording. The most effective strategy? Talk about what your customers are struggling with and how you've helped others overcome similar challenges. No need for perfection—authenticity resonates far more than flawless delivery.

Discover how a simple, genuine personalized video can generate more responses than dozens of cold emails, and why subject lines like "I'm not some goofy AI generated bot I swear" are cutting through the noise of automated outreach. We also reveal exciting details about our upcoming Content Crib RX platform, featuring a revolutionary AI Co-pilot designed to enhance (not replace) your authentic voice.

Whether you're just starting your content journey or looking to refine your approach, this episode offers actionable strategies for building meaningful connections in an increasingly digital world. The future belongs to those who can balance technological tools with genuine human connection—and we'll show you exactly how to strike that balance.

What if you could fill your medical practice with exactly the right patients—the ones who need your specific expertise, bring you the most revenue, and achieve the best outcomes? In this eye-opening conversation with Seth Turnoff, founder of CMM, we discover how data-driven patient acquisition is revolutionizing healthcare marketing.

Seth takes us behind the curtain of his unique approach that combines demographic data (age, location, income) with psychographic insights (online behavior, app usage, purchase patterns) to target patients with laser precision. Unlike traditional marketing that casts wide nets hoping to catch anyone, CMM helps practices identify and connect with patients who truly need their services—like finding people over 50 who've recently purchased knee braces and use fitness apps to market joint replacement services.

The conversation shifts from Seth's fascinating journey (from rock drummer and music venue owner to healthcare marketing innovator) to practical insights about content creation. With over 1,210 consecutive days of LinkedIn content, Seth shares his structured approach to building an audience of ideal prospects—Monday maps showing potential patient populations, weekday educational content, and "Feral Fridays" that showcase his personality.

What makes this discussion particularly valuable is Seth's authenticity about marketing healthcare services. "Patients aren't looking for the solution," he explains. "They're looking for confidence." This perspective transforms how we think about connecting with patients, focusing on outcomes they desire rather than procedures we offer.

Whether you're a healthcare provider frustrated with marketing that doesn't deliver or a content creator looking to build a more engaged audience, this episode delivers actionable strategies for meaningful growth. Listen now to discover how data-driven marketing can transform your practice and connect you with the patients who need you most.
