Escape the Social Media Hamster Wheel with Mark Herschberg

Alesia Galati Episode 167

While lots of social media posting tries to keep up with trends and focus on current events, podcasters and small business owners have a lot of evergreen content that establish them in their field and promote their thought leadership. So how do we share our evergreen content in an approachable, easily remembered way that doesn’t get lost in the algorithms of social media? Mark Herschberg, creator of the Brain Bump app, is here today to talk about his solution, Brain Bump. This week, episode 167 of Listeners to Leads is about escaping the social media hamster wheel! 

Mark Herschberg is the author of The Career Toolkit: Essential Skills for Success That No One Taught You and creator of the Brain Bump app. From tracking criminals and terrorists on the dark web to creating marketplaces and new authentication systems, Mark has spent his career launching and developing new ventures at startups and Fortune 500s and in academia, with over a dozen patents to his name. He helped to start the Undergraduate Practice Opportunities Program, dubbed MIT’s “career success accelerator,” where he teaches annually.

In this episode of Listeners to Leads, Mark Herschberg is sharing the importance of creators driving traffic to their own sites and content and actionable steps you can take right now to share your evergreen content in a way that doesn’t rely on social media. 

Mark and I also chat about the following: 

  • The limits of social media’s chronological and algorithmic structures.
  • How the app Brain Bump creates ways for creators to share tips with their audience while ensuring the original creator's brand is visible.
  • The importance of using data to make better decisions while keeping users' data private.
  • Having a clear understanding of your audience and tailoring your content to their needs.
