How to Grow Authority Quickly

Episode 34
Join your hosts Carmen and Sophia Micsa and meet Vinnie Potestivo, an Emmy® Award-winning Media Advisor, who helps clients leverage their media exposure, find fame, and make an impact.
Vinnie is the Editor-in-chief of I Have A Podcast® and is responsible for discovering and amplifying the voice of independent podcasters worldwide. As a network executive at MTV Networks (98-07), Vinnie discovered talent and developed new ways to support their goals, pioneering the way brands and business owners could contribute to their public narrative by making them stars and producers of their own television series. Early hits include Punk’d, The Osbournes, TRL, 8th & Ocean, Wild 'N Out, & The Challenge. Since then, he and his team at VPE.tv have continued to be well-trusted connectors who develop and distribute original content across all media platforms, especially podcasts!
You can listen to Vinnie dissect the creative process with some of the stars and creatives who helped launch his career, such as Mandy Moore, Danielle Fishel, TJ Lavin, and Ananda Lewis (to name a few) on the award-winning “I Have A Podcast” audio experience, which is available everywhere you watch and listen to podcasts.
Vinnie Potestivo has the following insights to share on his personal journey and MTV network executive:

• Discussing the concept of sharing vs. owning our story.
• Creating content is key, since TV has more competition than ever.
• When it comes to creativity and content creation, Vinnie loves to
• quote Maya Angelou, who said: “the more you spend, the more you
• have.” However, if we apply this to money, Warren Buffet is right
• when he says: “the more you spend, the less you have.”

On this Seeds of Sunshine episode:

• Vinnie discusses about Snoop Dog’s speech thanking himself for not giving up and working hard, which is also something we all need to do.
• Vinnie also outlines three things that we all need to do to get discovered.
• Show up with valuable information to earn a seat at the table.
• Build yourself as the source, not the story.
• The importance of building your image on IMDB .
