  • How Poor Video Quality Is Sabotaging Your Social Media Success
    Are you posting videos on social media but struggling to see the engagement and results you're hoping for? You might be shocked to learn that the quality of your video production could be the invisible barrier between you and your business goals. Poor lighting, shaky footage, and unprofessional audio don't just look bad – they're sending subconscious signals to your audience that undermine your credibility, reduce trust, and ultimately hurt your bottom line. You're investing time and energy into creating content, but if your video quality isn't up to par, you might be doing more harm than good to your brand's reputation. That's exactly what our guest today is here to help solve. Luria Petrucci is a video production powerhouse who's been creating professional videos and livestreams for over 19 years and is honored in the Podcast Hall of Fame. She's appeared on ABC, NBC, and BBC, designed video studios for industry leaders like Amy Porterfield, Marie Forleo, and Michael Hyatt, and has run live productions for events featuring Gwenyth Paltrow, Mila Kunis, and Randi Zuckerberg. As the founder of Live Streaming Pros, Luria knows exactly how video quality impacts audience psychology and business results. Social Pulse Podcast host Mike Allton asked Luria Petrucci about: 🧡 Trust-killing video mistakes - The specific production elements that make viewers question your professionalism within seconds  🧡 The psychology of perception - How your audience's brain processes video quality and what that means for engagement and conversions 🧡 Cost-effective quality upgrades - Simple changes that deliver maximum impact on audience trust without breaking the budget Learn more about Luria Petrucci Connect with Luria Petrucci on LinkedIn Connect with Luria Petrucci on Instagram Subscribe to Luria Petrucci on YouTube Resources & Brands mentioned in this episode Live Streaming Pros Join Social Pulse Community on Facebook Learn more about Agorapulse with a free demo Podcast Hall of Fame ABC NBC BBC Amy Porterfield Marie Forleo Michael Hyatt Gwyneth Paltrow Mila Kunis Randi Zuckerberg Jefferson Fisher Best Lights for Live Streaming - A Guide Zoom Google+ Hangouts On Air Chris Stone Logitech C920 Framing Tool (Video Production) StreamYard PlexiCam Elgato prompter Google Docs ASUS monitors Airmeet Quinlan Walther Rode PodMic Behringer mixer Elgato Wave3 Audio-Technica Shure Sennheiser Facebook Social Pulse Facebook Community Show Notes & Transcript: https://www.agorapulse.com/blog/podcasts/social-pulse-podcast/how-poor-video-quality-is-sabotaging-your-social-media-success Brought to you by Agorapulse: the #1 rated social media management solution.

  • The Social Listening Goldmine: How Smart Brands Mine Conversations for Revenue
    Are you treating social listening like glorified brand monitoring? You're missing a massive opportunity. Most brands think social listening means tracking mentions and hashtags, but they're barely scratching the surface of what's possible. While you're counting brand mentions, your smartest competitors are mining social conversations for product ideas, competitive intelligence, and customer insights that directly drive revenue. The conversations happening right now on social media contain a goldmine of business intelligence - from unmet customer needs to competitor weaknesses to emerging market trends - but most brands don't know how to extract that value. That's exactly what today's guest, Brooke Sellas, is here to help with. Brooke is the CEO and Founder of B Squared Media, an award-winning social media agency specializing in social listening and customer experience. With over 15 years of experience, she's helped major brands like Michelin, Mastercard, and Coldwell Banker turn social conversations into revenue drivers. Named one of LinkedIn's Top 10 Rising Stars in Marketing and recognized as a Top 100 CMA Influencer & Strategist, Brooke is the author of "Conversations that Connect" and has revolutionized how brands approach social listening as a strategic business tool rather than just a monitoring exercise. Social Pulse Podcast host Mike Allton asked Brooke Sellas about: 🧡 Strategic Social Intelligence - How to transform everyday social conversations into actionable business insights that inform product development, marketing strategies, and competitive positioning. 🧡 Revenue-Focused Listening Framework - The proven methodologies for connecting social listening data directly to business outcomes like lead generation, customer retention, and churn prevention. 🧡 Competitive Intelligence Goldmine - How smart brands use social listening to uncover their competitors' weaknesses, customer pain points, and market opportunities that translate into measurable growth.

  • Stop Chasing Algorithm Hacks: What Really Works for Instagram Organic Reach
    Are you tired of endless Instagram "algorithm hacks" that promise the world but deliver nothing but wasted time and effort? You spend hours creating content based on the latest "insider tip" only to watch your reach flatline or even decline. You're constantly second-guessing your strategy, wondering if you're missing some secret formula that everyone else seems to know. The truth is, most of what you've been told about the Instagram algorithm is either outdated, oversimplified, or flat-out wrong. That's exactly what our guest today is here to help you fix. Jenn Herman is a globally recognized Instagram expert, author of "Instagram For Business For Dummies," and the mastermind behind Jenn's Trends - a blog that Social Media Examiner has consistently named as one of the top social media blogs you should be reading. She co-hosts the Socially Confident podcast and has been at the forefront of Instagram marketing education for years, helping businesses cut through the noise to find what actually works for sustainable organic growth. Social Pulse Podcast host Mike Allton asked Jenn Herman about: 🧡 Algorithm Reality Check - Why most popular Instagram "hacks" fail and what the algorithm actually prioritizes for organic content. 🧡 Sustainable Growth Tactics - Proven strategies that build long-term engagement rather than chasing short-term algorithm tricks. 🧡 Content Strategy Evolution - How to adapt your approach based on real algorithm changes versus social media rumors and misinformation.

  • The Practical Professor: Turning Social Media Students into Strategic Professionals
    Are you frustrated with the gap between what new social media hires learned in college and what they actually need to know on day one? You're not alone. Too many graduates enter the workforce with theoretical knowledge but lack the practical skills, strategic thinking, and real-world experience that employers desperately need. They can create content but struggle with crisis management, understand algorithms but can't tie campaigns to business objectives, and know the platforms but miss the strategic nuance that separates good social media work from great results. The disconnect between academic training and industry reality is costing businesses time, money, and missed opportunities. That's where our guest today comes in as the solution. Dr. Karen Freberg is a Full Professor of Strategic Communications at the University of Louisville who has spent her career building bridges between academia and industry. She's the award-winning author of "Social Media for Strategic Communications," has consulted with major brands like Adobe, Meta, and Hootsuite, and most importantly, she's the Director of The Bird's Nest - the University of Louisville's first student-run strategic communications agency where students work with real clients on real campaigns. Dr. Freberg has cracked the code on preparing students not just for their first social media job, but for long-term strategic careers that deliver measurable business impact. Social Pulse Podcast host Mike Allton asked Dr. Freberg about: 🧡 Bridging the Skills Gap - How educators can redesign social media curricula to focus on practical, industry-relevant competencies that employers actually need. 🧡 Student Agency Benefits - Why hands-on client work through student-run agencies creates more job-ready graduates than traditional classroom learning alone. 🧡 Strategic Thinking Development - How to teach students to think beyond content creation and develop the business acumen and crisis management skills that drive career advancement.
