Chris Miller, Dane Smith

Tired of being ignored, overlooked, or misunderstood? Here’s the harsh truth: communication is the real currency of influence, and most people — including executives — are terrible at it.


 In this episode, we pull back the curtain on the common communication mistakes that quietly destroy credibility and opportunity. Learn how to frame your messages to tap into self-interest, shift your language so they listen, master emotional and outcome-driven messaging, and use our simple 3-question tool to immediately boost your ability to persuade, connect, and be remembered.

What's In It For You?
You'll walk away knowing exactly how to:
✅ Craft messages people actually listen to and act on
✅ Influence conversations, decisions, and even careers — including your own
✅ Position yourself as a leader others want to follow

Master these skills and you'll have a competitive edge most people will never even see coming.

Ready to stop being ignored and start being impossible to overlook?
We've got your back!
