Everybody Writes with Ann Handley

The incredible Ann Handley is back and it's a rather interesting appearance because we discuss ChatGPT and specifically if AI bots will take away jobs and livelihood from copywriters. The response is eerily reasurancing, BUT what happens next is really quite weird: it seems like we are joined by a mysterious third guest that we could not see at the time, but after the fact it is impossible to miss...

We are NOT ALONE!!!!! :P

It's a wonderful conversation with amazing chemistry and here are the shownote:

16m - Language reflects culture

19m - Speaks to the brand

20m - My uncle Ed

21m - Showing up unannounced

22m - Signaling - I understand you

25m - Permission to show up unannounced

27m - First you have to earn equity/currency (which you do with consistency through showing up)...then surprise and delight with value

28m - Chatmans or Chathums

33m - Death to the Humans

34m - Level up; Step up

41m - The beginning of a brainstorm

43m - Leadership leveling up

44m - You can't shortcut relationships

46m - I didn't recognize the writer

54m - Becoming a better writer

54m - Trying to find your voice....you already have a voice...just evolve it

56m - Habit (showing up every day) versus obligation (showing up some days)

My Take/Learning: If you show up informally, treat your audience informally; if you show up formally, treat your audience formally (traditionally)
