Think local and global.

Hi, I’m Brian Pombo. Welcome back to Brian J Pombo. Live. Today I wanted to talk about a new thing that just came out. So I live in the town of Grants Pass, not specifically in the city limits, I’m outside the city limits, but I do get my mail.

I’m in the mailing address of Grants Pass. So I consider myself part of Grants Pass.

I lived within the city limits for quite a few years in the past, so I very much consider myself a resident. And one of the things I wanted to do was get to know more people around here.

I’ve lived around here long enough and I still don’t feel like I know a whole lot of people. And I don’t really know anyone all that well and I wanted to find some people with similar interests and so forth.

I like meeting people that are doing things whether I agree with the things they’re doing or not is irrelevant. I just want to meet people that are out there doing things that have a passion that are doing something with their life, what I would call movers and shakers.

So me and producer Sean Douglas came up with an idea for Grants Pass VIP.

And what Grants Pass VIP is is a podcast.

That is an interview podcast similar to my Off The Grid Biz Podcast, where it sit down and have a little interview a little conversation with people and see where it goes. S

o I had had a great one today, that’ll be out a little bit later with a gentleman named Tim Thompson, who is the owner of ziplinegear.com. And he does a whole bunch of other things. Very interesting. We had a great conversation and it’ll be out later on let you know when it comes out.

But right now if you go to Grants Pass VIP comm you can see the first three episodes now the first episode is just me giving a little intro as to what I see the show is going to be and what I hope it’s going to be.

And then the second two are happen to be two business owners from the area and out and you go check them out. It’s good stuff, really good perspectives on things.

And you know, both controversial and non controversial and how businesses are handling all the COVID-19 situation and so forth. It’s a really great stuff. At least I had a good time and I got to I got to meet or get to know two people a lot better than I knew before.

And that’s only the beginning. We’ve already interviewed a handful of other people that those shows will be coming out In weeks ahead,

hopefully, every couple weeks, we’ll put on another show.

So, here’s why I mentioned this. The whole point was for me to get to know local people a little better and be able to if, if it gets to be as good as I hope it will, if I get to meet the type of people that I already have been meeting. And if that continues, and it continues to go in a positive direction, which I think it will.

I’m going to pass on this knowledge to other people because anybody can do what I did. Or what I am doing locally here.

You could do the same thing where you’re at, as long as you’re not here. If you’re here, you could do it but you’d have to do something just slightly different just so you’d you’d play tour to a different crowd but or, you know, call me up so we can team up together. I don’t mind.

But you can do this anywhere.

I could do it down the road. If I go A half hour away and to Medford much larger metro location. You can have a metro Oregon podcast. And excuse me a Medford, Oregon podcast. And that would be great. You could have that there’s a smaller town there, Ashland college town, you can have an Ashland, Oregon podcast.

Very few people are taking advantage of the podcast platform to hit a low local locations. And I see it as being a really wide open opportunity right now. So I don’t know anyone else who’s that I’m sure there are people who have done it, especially larger cities.

But I have not met anyone that has that. I haven’t heard any podcasts that play to this type of niche. But it’s a way it’s a great foot in the door. It’s a way to get to know more people.

People are very open about I mean, they’re either open to doing an interview or they’re not. But if they are, and many people are especially if they have something there Promoting, then it, it’s a great foot in the door, it’s a great reason to be able to come in and not be treated like an unwelcome guest, or some salesman that’s trying to sell them something.

So it’s worth thinking about. But I want you to think, locally and globally. So this local play that I’m doing is really just a way for me to understand what to do on a international basis also, so that they all play together.

Don’t just think about one or the other. I think thinking about both at the same time will be to your favor. And I can’t wait to talk about some of the conversations I had today with you as we move ahead into the future.
