Intro Voice Guy [00:00:14]:
You’re listening to Entrepreneurs Enigma, a podcast about the ups and downs of the entrepreneurial journey. Every week, your host, Seth Goldstein, interviews entrepreneurs from all walks of life about their entrepreneurial journeys, from store owners to Fortune 500 CEOs. We all have stories to tell, so sit back and join us for the next 20 or so minutes while we explore the entrepreneurial world.

Seth [00:00:49]:
Hey, everybody. Welcome to another edition of the Entrepreneurs Enigma Podcast. You know who I am by now, but I’m Seth. I’m your host today. I have a Annika Jackson on the show. She is a multifaceted marker, I’m gonna put it that way, because she does a lot. She does a lot. And as the time of her submitting her bio, she is teaching.

Seth [00:01:14]:
Did you finish your MBA yet? Or you’re still almost done that you’re pursuing your MBA in Villanova? Yes. She lives south of LA, so that’s. That’s a long commute every day to school, isn’t it? No, I’m joking. But Annika has her own podcast, which I was. I was very lucky to be on, which is. Which is great. It’s a great listen. And you need to listen to this called Brand Amplified.

Seth [00:01:39]:
And she even has it trademarked, which is like, she’s got the little R next to it, which is, like, really impressive. I haven’t gotten around to doing Entrepreneurs, and they don’t want Entrepreneurs magazine to come after me. And every lawyer, I say, is that. Just be quiet. They haven’t come after you in three years. They’re not going to come after you. But if you. If you ruffle their feathers, they might.

Seth [00:01:59]:
So I’m like, all right, we’re going to keep that quiet. I don’t. No. No one steal my name. There you go. But, so Annika, is. Is. You teach at usc, Annenberg School still, right?

Anika Jackson [00:02:13]:
Yep. Yeah. Teach. Grad school for the digital media management program, and I also have a podcast at usc.

Seth [00:02:19]:
Oh, that’s all. See, she’s a little bit busy, but you’re also an entrepreneur, and you’re very big on. Specialized in AI and machine learning and marketing, which is kind of where everything is right now. Everyone’s like, how can I use this? How can I. And usually everyone’s like, how can I use this? Well, but everyone’s like, ends up using how can I use this? Badly. Because it’s always. You always. People use it the wrong way.

Seth [00:02:44]:
They take it, and they take it verbatim. They don’t take it as an aid. And that’s my Biggest bugaboo is that use it as a way to help your brain not take over for your brain.

Anika Jackson [00:02:57]:
Yeah, yeah, there. And there were. I was just hearing on the radio today about the radio.

Seth [00:03:02]:
You listen to the radio?

Anika Jackson [00:03:04]:
Yeah, when I’m driving.

Seth [00:03:06]:
It’s so obsessed.

Anika Jackson [00:03:07]:
I either listen to podcasts or I listen to npr, you know, so. Because that gives me a little bit of a different point of view than podcasts. But there was a discussion about how some AI tools are being really used for younger kids and it’s, you know, they get to create their kind of own avatar that they’re speaking to in the likeness of.

Seth [00:03:30]:
It’s kind of fun.

Anika Jackson [00:03:31]:
Or a real person. But several of them have, you know, have not been classified and labeled appropriately because data is getting through. Suggestions for self harm for. Oh, no or yeah, things like that that are, you know, in theory should not exist because they are supposed to be being labeled before the content gets to we as the consumers. So I think that’s going to be something that comes up more and more as we get into the world of, you know, AGI, agentic AI and causal AI, where we have kind of like.

Seth [00:04:10]:
And even geo, you know, generative Engine optimization, where it’s like. I just read a blog post because, like, this is interesting on Goldstein Media about that, how it’s not SEO as much as it’s GEO now, because it’s like, how do you get that snippet? How do you get the reference? It’s still SEO. Yeah, it’s just they feel like, let’s make a new term. Exactly. So how did this all get started? Like, who is Annika? Like, what’s your. What’s your back? I mean, what’s the backstory? Have you always been an NBA grad student or. No? I mean, obviously not.

Anika Jackson [00:04:43]:
Well, when I was originally getting my master’s, I was doing it in global health. This is several years ago. And then I went through a divorce. Had to put that on the back burner, you know, all. All that stuff. But I am multicultural. My mom is from is Thai and Laos, and I actually have dual citizenship with Thailand. She came to us, as many immigrants do, to go to university.

Anika Jackson [00:05:07]:
She was supposed to go back. And education is really big in my family. So my dad was a college professor. My mom, my grandmother in Thailand. My kuniai had a private school. My mom was supposed to come here, get education and go back and run the school. And instead she met my dad, got married. Now she lives in Thailand again.

Anika Jackson [00:05:26]:
So that’s a whole other story.

Seth [00:05:27]:
But that’s fine. You have a reason to go to Thailand.

Anika Jackson [00:05:30]:
Yeah. But they found their way from California to Kansas. My dad was pursuing a doctorate in Chinese philosophy, which he never finished, but that I was born in Lawrence, Kansas.

Seth [00:05:42]:
And Kansas. Yeah, and Kansas. We’re gonna take a quick break here from our sponsors and get right back to the show. Sorry, all the Kans out there. Witchita.

Anika Jackson [00:05:54]:
No, Lawrence. The Jayhawks. College.

Seth [00:05:58]:
Oh, it’s a college. Oh, it’s a college town.

Anika Jackson [00:05:59]:
Yeah, it’s a college town.

Seth [00:06:01]:
Okay. Well, it’s about what. It’s pretty much what Kansas has. Fields or college towns. Because it’s. It’s very flat.

Anika Jackson [00:06:09]:
Yes. Yeah. Until you get to the eastern part of the state, closer to Colorado. But.

Seth [00:06:14]:
Oh, they have hills.

Anika Jackson [00:06:16]:
Yes.

Seth [00:06:18]:
Hey, I learned something every day. I always thought it was flat.

Anika Jackson [00:06:20]:
Yeah. Now they have hills. Rolling hills. That’s the part of the state that probably always wants to, like, secede and become part of Colorado. Yeah. All these other things.

Seth [00:06:33]:
Every state has that half the state doesn’t like. The other half of the state.

Anika Jackson [00:06:37]:
Yeah, yeah.

Seth [00:06:39]:
California, especially Southern California, Middle California and Northern California should literally be three states, but there’s a whole nother podcast.

Anika Jackson [00:06:47]:
Yeah, yeah. You and I, our conversations. We have so many podcasts within each conversation. I love having you on my podcast. So I really got my start. My family background is philanthropy, entrepreneurship, and education. And those are three things that really drive me to the today. I really do believe that a lot is passed on in our genes.

Anika Jackson [00:07:12]:
Right. Generational knowledge and interest. Engagement. I got my start in marketing because I was a bored high school student who would go to Kansas City every weekend with my fake ID that I was 18, so I could go dancing.

Seth [00:07:27]:
Oh, sure. Just dancing.

Anika Jackson [00:07:29]:
Oh, no, Literally, just dancing. Yeah. My friends and I were not interested in drinking. We just wanted to find a good place to go and dance and listen to good music. And wasn’t finding that, you know, where I was living at the time. And then one day a friend said, hey, this DJ wants you to start promoting for them, and you’ll get in free to all the shows. I was like, done. So that was hard.

Anika Jackson [00:07:54]:
And my career path has been really organic since then. And it’s, you know, gone through working for marketing agencies, for ad agencies, for magazine publishers when magazines were a bigger thing.

Seth [00:08:10]:
We were making fun of on radio. However, remember what magazines are like. I know I have one back here. I actually have a magazine.

Anika Jackson [00:08:17]:
Oh, wow.

Seth [00:08:17]:
I actually get. I actually get Wired in the mail. I. And the reason why is I can’t figure out how to cancel the print magazine because they make it really hard. I would. I would pay for it, but I just don’t need the print. I only. I don’t need the dead tree.

Anika Jackson [00:08:29]:
Yeah.

Seth [00:08:30]:
Yeah, I can’t figure that out. Maybe you can help me.

Anika Jackson [00:08:33]:
I. I don’t know about that. They make it a lot harder nowadays. But back in the day, this is, you know, late 90s, early 2000s, best time.

Seth [00:08:43]:
Yeah.

Anika Jackson [00:08:44]:
So it was a really great time. And the magazines, though, were bridging that divide, that you know, transition from print into digital. So I launched a music magazine. It came with a CD of new music every month.

Seth [00:08:57]:
Wow. We are hitting all the antiquated technology here.

Anika Jackson [00:08:59]:
Yes.

Seth [00:09:00]:
Remember, remember the CDs. Wow.

Anika Jackson [00:09:04]:
Find my street team promoters. I had to go into AOL music chat rooms because that was what existed. Or Yahoo. Right at the time, that was the Internet.

Seth [00:09:13]:
Huge AM you’re away message. It’s like everyone misses that now.

Anika Jackson [00:09:18]:
Exactly. So that was how I found my street team. So it was that mix in between. And then the next magazine I launched was the official Xbox magazine. When Xbox first came out. And the same thing, we had PC Gamer. We had PS 700% independent PlayStation magazine business 2.0. I worked on a whole bunch of different titles at that company.

Seth [00:09:38]:
That’s fun.

Anika Jackson [00:09:39]:
And each of our video game magazines came with a demo CD and that you could stick in your PlayStation or your Xbox and demo different games. And we love those demo.

Seth [00:09:49]:
I love those demo cities. I never buy the actual games, but I played the demos until it said buy the game. I’m like, all right, I’ll think about it. And I forget and move on to the next game on the demo disc.

Anika Jackson [00:10:01]:
At pr, I had fax press releases. I mean, yes, I am a dinosaur, but I was able to make the transition pretty easily and seamlessly into the world of digital. And. And so it’s really.

Seth [00:10:16]:
You’re a millennial. You’re multifaceted.

Anika Jackson [00:10:18]:
I’m not. I’m Gen X. I just turned 50. Yeah. Yeah. Four days ago.

Seth [00:10:26]:
If you’re watching the video, you not look 50.

Anika Jackson [00:10:31]:
Well, thank you.

Seth [00:10:32]:
Good genes.

Anika Jackson [00:10:33]:
So it’s.

Seth [00:10:35]:
They gave you the entrepreneurship and they gave you the good genes. God bless you.

Anika Jackson [00:10:40]:
Yeah. So that’s really what started my foundation. And then luckily, those skills are things I’ve been able to use no matter what business I’ve had. I’ve had real estate, investment property management. I’ve had social clubs. I’ve had a retail store. Wow, you’ve done a lot yeah, And a number of other.

Seth [00:10:58]:
And you’re only 50. You’ve done all this.

Anika Jackson [00:10:59]:
I mean, that’s impressive at a PR firm, you know, And. And now my world really is teaching podcasting. I consult for some different companies, which I’m going to start integrating into the podcast for next year. I have a podcast curriculum that’s coming out in June.

Seth [00:11:18]:
I love that. I love it. You are a badass. I love this.

Anika Jackson [00:11:22]:
No, I just. My mind, the ADHD in me and the constant for knowledge and educating myself and also wanting to help people be who they really are. And I feel like there are a lot of podcast curriculums and different things. Mine is actually.

Seth [00:11:39]:
It’s needed. It’s so needed right now because people go into podcasting and they’re like, oh, I’m just gonna record a show and put it up there, and they fade after three episodes. I mean, I’m starting to do podcast coaching to help avoid that with people, because I’m like, have a plan. Yeah, start podcasts and don’t just sit on your podcast shows, but, like, have somewhat of a plan on how things are going to go. Have a strategy.

Anika Jackson [00:12:04]:
Well, we’ll talk about that. Because mine is more about the upfront. I want people to set up their podcast as they would any business. What is your brand? What. What do you need to do? Set up your business? Do you need to have trademarks? Do you. Are you. Do you already have a business this is part of, or is this a separate entity? How do you set up your business structure? How do you create the production?

Seth [00:12:24]:
Where was this 10 years ago for me?

Anika Jackson [00:12:26]:
Seriously, it’s all the things that we do or that we’re supposed to do in business. And, you know, I think we’ve had this conversation. Maybe we have it. But when I started this specific podcast, your brand amplified. I didn’t realize it was a business until three years in.

Seth [00:12:43]:
It happens. Yeah.

Anika Jackson [00:12:44]:
You know, I’d had podcasts I did for other people that were definitely part of a business, but then this one, I was like, oh, oh, yeah, this is a business. And now I monetize it. And my curriculum has been approved to teach at usc, so just figured, what semester I can do that. But I want people to have a really strong foundation to take it seriously, to understand how to grow their business from it. Also how to monetize, how to engage with audiences. All the things that I think a lot of the other curriculums that I’ve seen out there don’t do. They provide, like, little worksheets. Right.

Anika Jackson [00:13:16]:
Or they’re or they’re really expensive programs. So I want mine to be for like the everyday person who knows they have a message, they’re an entrepreneur, but they may not have. You know, I love this. Tons and tons of money because that’s really what my purpose is. And that’s what. Yeah, everything I do, you know, it’s about helping people live better, be better, live authentically.

Seth [00:13:38]:
I love that. Oh, I can’t wait. Oh, I’m gonna audit your. I want to audit your class so bad. This sounds awesome. This sounds great. I mean, I mean, I haven’t been podcasting for 10 years. Oh my God.

Seth [00:13:49]:
I think I know a thing or two, but I’m like, yeah, you do. You always learn more. But you always learn more stuff like, oh, this is a bit like you said, it really resonated with me. It’s like you were doing your brand amplified for three years and you’re like, wait, yeah, pause. This is actually a business. Oops. Yeah, that’s the story of entrepreneurship, though. It’s just kind of just doing and figuring it out along the way.

Anika Jackson [00:14:17]:
Well, and that interestingly takes us to my. Some of my newest endeavors. One is I’ve been working with a former Zen monk we met and I, and I realized, like, I teach branding the way that you’re teaching self mastery because I really want people to understand who they are innately inside and make all of our external decisions based on that because that’s going to be a happier life. Right?

Seth [00:14:39]:
I love that.

Anika Jackson [00:14:40]:
So he has this construct that he’s created and so we went through a rebrand. I took him through an exercise and.

Seth [00:14:46]:
Then took a monk through a rebrand. I love that.

Anika Jackson [00:14:49]:
It’s awesome because he’s really great at what he does, but he doesn’t know marketing. He’s a really amazing guy. And we just did another rebrand because we were doing a short little podcast series that is living on my stream since I have a built in audience on my rss. But we went from he was doing Zen, Zen Mastery and all these other names to Zen Activation Program. And then we’re like, this doesn’t quite resonate with us still. So we just changed to Zen Power, which I was surprised. So now it’s the Zen Power podcast, Zen Power Program. And we in the midst of getting that up and running and launched and we’re, we did this in real time.

Anika Jackson [00:15:25]:
So the first episode of our little short podcast came out last week on my birthday and we were still talking about activations and activation and I’M like, it’s okay because you don’t have to be perfect, you just have to get it out. And it’s.

Seth [00:15:40]:
We’re not npr.

Anika Jackson [00:15:41]:
Yes.

Seth [00:15:42]:
Keep telling people. If you call back to your NPR listening, but like, we’re not npr, we’re podcasts. Podcasts can be a little rough around the edges. They’re supposed to be charming and kind of you listen like you’re listening at a, at a bar, at a conversation kind of.

Anika Jackson [00:15:56]:
Yes, exactly.

Seth [00:15:57]:
Less bad background noise, but yeah, that kind of thing.

Anika Jackson [00:16:00]:
So, yeah, yeah. And NPR produces high quality podcasts. But the reality is most of us are not going to have those budgets. Most of us are not celebrities who are going to be, you know, sponsored.

Seth [00:16:10]:
Most of us aren’t journalists either. So they’re like, yeah, I’m a journal, I’m a former journalist and that’s, I mean, I’m a rarity in this space. I mean, it does a podcast episode versus a buttoned up. Like this is npr, right? Yeah, exactly. Come on.

Anika Jackson [00:16:27]:
Yeah, yeah. And you paid me like one of the biggest compliments of my life, if you remember. Yeah, yeah.

Seth [00:16:34]:
Yours is very npr. Like, it was very good. I like that.

Anika Jackson [00:16:36]:
Thanks. So, but yeah, so podcasting Zen stuff. And then I have just because I needed more. But I needed.

Seth [00:16:46]:
Of course, but there’s more.

Anika Jackson [00:16:48]:
I’m paying for my MBA myself, so I needed a little extra income. So now I’m working in philanthropy for an educational foundation. But it perfectly aligns with everything else I’m doing.

Seth [00:17:00]:
Isn’t it funny how that works out? It’s like one more thing, but. Oh, it kind of works.

Anika Jackson [00:17:04]:
Yeah, it’s the ICL Foundation. It’s been around 20 years, but they started a school, an academy separate from it four years ago that’s now in the top five online private schools. It’s for high performing kids who really know what they’re passionate about, but they need maybe some extra financing to help with their education, with their training, to get to that big match in Europe. And also we want them not to just be good on in their chosen passion, whether it’s sport or whatever. But we also want them to be really good people. Right. So it’s not in the field, but it’s also about getting a great education, going to university, and then also being a good civic leader and steward and understanding how to do projects. So Even though it’s 20 years old, it’s basically.

Anika Jackson [00:17:51]:
I’m an entrepreneur for this too, because it’s basically a startup. It’s been nurtured as Much. Right. Because we’ve been so focused on the school, but now that’s doing really well. So it’s like, all right, now we need to focus on the funding that we need to do these other programs, not just for the school, but to get out to kids everywhere.

Seth [00:18:10]:
In addition to all this, you’re also a mom.

Anika Jackson [00:18:12]:
Oh, yeah. Yes. I’m also a single mom, but that, that is two fur babies and then a 16 year old daughter.

Seth [00:18:22]:
Oh, you see two kids I thought I knew had a 16 year old daughter, which, that’s, it’s helpful that she’s 16 so you can do more things. Cause they’re a little bit more self contained. A little bit.

Anika Jackson [00:18:31]:
Well, yeah, she’s very driven though. So there’s a lot of focus on.

Seth [00:18:35]:
I wonder where she gets that from.

Anika Jackson [00:18:39]:
She’s known what she wants to do since she was 12. So there’s a lot of focus on like we started the class.

Seth [00:18:43]:
Sounds like her mom.

Anika Jackson [00:18:44]:
Last year she just got her. I’m gonna brag. She just. Psat. She’s the National Merit semifinalist for her school. She got a higher score than any of her friends. And they’re all kind of the nerdy, smart kids that are very driven by their passions.

Seth [00:19:04]:
Proud mama.

Anika Jackson [00:19:06]:
Yeah, very proud mama. She’s going to do a summer program at Cambridge in England. It was her dream school to make sure she really likes it. And then another one in British Columbia at ubc, which she loves. It’s exhausting thinking about her schedule because she’s also like, she probably looks at.

Seth [00:19:25]:
Your schedule and says, mom, yours is just as exhausting as mine.

Anika Jackson [00:19:29]:
My schedules? Yeah, yeah, that’s, that’s very true.

Seth [00:19:32]:
And her, you’re saying her schedule is exhausting. And I’m looking, I’m like, have you looked at your schedule?

Anika Jackson [00:19:39]:
Well, I’m thinking about like the summer, like she’s going to be certified for paragliding. She’s going to go river rafting in Canada and then she’s doing these two camp programs or not. You know, summer.

Seth [00:19:53]:
Enrichment. Yeah.

Anika Jackson [00:19:55]:
To see if she really likes these universities. And I know she’d prefer more downtime, but you know, her dad also is very go, go, go, so.

Seth [00:20:05]:
Oh, so she’s completely screwed with the go, go, go in this.

Anika Jackson [00:20:08]:
She really is. I am actually, when we’re together we have more downtime, which. Because we need that in our schedules. Right.

Seth [00:20:16]:
You need a chance to breathe. You really do.

Anika Jackson [00:20:19]:
Yeah. So I’m very fortunate that she has these opportunities. Right.

Seth [00:20:24]:
That’s awesome.

Anika Jackson [00:20:25]:
And she gets to Take advantage of them. My schedule has to work around a lot of that, which is fine.

Seth [00:20:31]:
You can, but you can.

Anika Jackson [00:20:33]:
Yeah, I can. I can. And I think I was listening to some of your episodes. Right. And I love.

Seth [00:20:40]:
Thank you.

Anika Jackson [00:20:41]:
Of course. Of course. I don’t know if I’ve left your rating and review yet, but I will.

Seth [00:20:45]:
Today, everyone click that subscribe button.

Anika Jackson [00:20:49]:
Yes, I did that. But I love the fact that you have these conversations with people. They’re all so different. You’re getting different things out of them. There. There’s a lot of a common thread of people. When you’re an entrepreneur, you can’t help but be an entrepreneur no matter what you’re doing.

Seth [00:21:04]:
Yeah.

Anika Jackson [00:21:04]:
If it’s an. If you’re in an organization, you’re going to be an intrapreneur. Right. But we just have this drive that it’s just part of us and we can’t let it go even when we try. Because I’ve tried going back and working as I’ve tried too. It doesn’t work. It doesn’t work.

Seth [00:21:21]:
Yeah, it doesn’t work. So, Annika, where can people find. Where do you hang out online besides the podcast feeds?

Anika Jackson [00:21:29]:
Yeah, podcast feeds, LinkedIn. I have been. I’ve just been so burned out because of everything I’m doing from being on social, which is, I know, a big part of what we do. But luckily, somehow I’ve been able to grow my. I’ve been able to grow my audience without focusing on social. So there’s that. Which everybody should realize. Right.

Anika Jackson [00:21:51]:
You don’t need it for everything necessarily. People aren’t going to look at a post. I do necessarily on Instagram and decide to go listen to the podcast. So I really hang out on LinkedIn. I’m always happy to connect with people. I love having conversations like you. And I need to start setting up a lot of the people I have on my podcast. We end up setting up, like monthly or quarterly meetings.

Anika Jackson [00:22:12]:
Touch base. See, like, what are you doing? What am I doing?

Seth [00:22:15]:
That’s the whole purpose of. It’s the whole purpose of my podcast exactly. Is to meet people, interact. Because we’re stuck at home.

Anika Jackson [00:22:22]:
Right.

Seth [00:22:23]:
This is my social. This is my socialization. If no one’s checked out, look at this. It’s not a socializing bla. Podcast.

Anika Jackson [00:22:31]:
Same, same. Fantastic. Yeah. So there. And then your brand, amplified.com to get on my email list, which I don’t send out emails very often, so you don’t have to worry about being, you know, overburdened with those or listen to the podcast or just set up a call to. I’m always happy to give people a 30 minute session just to any question they have. PR, branding, marketing, digital AI, podcasting, whatever it is. I’m happy to give my time and I will not ask them to become a client at the end of it, you know, unless they want to be.

Seth [00:23:06]:
Yeah, yeah.

Anika Jackson [00:23:06]:
If somebody wants to, then that’s great. But it’s not the priority. The priority is just helping people see where they are and feel really good about where they’re going.

Seth [00:23:16]:
Love it. Well, Annika, thank you so much for being on the program. I love how 22 minutes goes by so fast.

Anika Jackson [00:23:22]:
Oh my gosh.

Seth [00:23:23]:
Seriously, it flies by. But we’ll see everyone next week.
