The Introvert Online Podcast: Recent Episodes
Veronica Pullen
The Introvert Online podcast is for introverts who promote their business online or have an online business.
It’s our time to celebrate our introversion; to recognise the advantages of being us and leave behind the feeling of ‘not-enoughness’ that comes from living in a world that was built by extroverts, for extroverts.
Most experts teaching online marketing are extroverted, hiring extroverts to extrovert for them, or they are operating from the extroverted side of their personality more than you wish to, especially if you want to avoid stress and burnout.
However, when introverts attempt to follow their teachings, marketing online becomes exhausting, and often, ends up falling by the wayside.
But Veronica is on a mission to change the world of online marketing for introverts.
Her vision is for this podcast to be a celebration of the BIG advantages to being an introverted business owner online today.
She will share how marketing online will become ease-y, fun, and a LOT more successful for you when you use your introverted advantages strategically and effectively …
… complementing the extroverted noise in your newsfeed so you don’t feel you have to shout louder to be heard above it.
In The Introvert Online podcast, Veronica shares her insights, teaching, and observations about being an introvert business owner online, and talks to other introverts in business about their experiences of being an introvert online.

In this episode, I chat with G Sabini Roberts to discuss how we can become more aware of our gender biases.
For many of us, inclusivity is a topic we don't know much about and can be afraid to ask, in case we offend.
I have known G many years and have seen them patiently and compassionately explain and educate.
I hope this episode answers the questions you have been afraid to ask and gives you clarity on how to communicate compassionately with members of the LGBTQ+ community in your audience,
You can find G here: https://gsabiniroberts.com
When you say:
“I am stuck!”
“I am overwhelmed!”
You are making a statement to yourself that is the equivalent of running headfirst into a brick wall, instead of opting to turn left and run alongside it.
In this episode, Veronica shares the question to ask yourself instead, so you take personal responsibility to change your outcomes and create the life you want - one small step forward at a time.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Both of these statements are closed statements, neither will help your mind get out of the situation you are in.
- Think about what you need to do to reframe the situation when these statements come into your head. What resources do you have available to you to make the next step forward?
- If you want help, then ask for it.
BEST MOMENTS
“Change it, reframe it”
“It’s a message you give yourself that you aren’t available for a solution”

Have you ever considered that the way you respond to certain situations is holding you back in life and business?
Maybe you’ve lost clients because when they said they were unhappy, you froze, unable to put across your views, or you became angry and defensive?
Perhaps you posted on Facebook, someone left a friendly comment disagreeing with your perspective and you freaked out, deleting the post?
In this episode, Veronica shares what she has learnt about the reasons for our instinctive responses to situations, and why you must heal the root cause to achieve success and wealth without hurting yourself any further.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
If you do the inner work on yourself then it will create you to have healthier growth, in both your personal and business life. Your inner child responses won’t be serving you in business. It may be helpful to investigate what yours are and how you can tackle them.
BEST MOMENTS
“It’s their wounded inner child surfacing”
“The learning there is if you are owed money and you are having an emotional reaction to it, flip it, reframe it and let it go”
“If you do strategy without inner healing you will still be limited”

When you create content to post on Facebook, who do you see in your mind as the ‘person’ reading your words?
Over the years of helping clients promote their offers and reading posts in her newsfeed, Veronica has observed that people tend to fall into one of two camps as to who they think they’re mostly talking to.
In this episode, you’ll discover which camp you fall into. And whether it is the one that takes you TOWARDS or AWAY from your goal?
KEY TAKEAWAYS
There are two groups that people fall into. The first group of people see the people on their Facebook as their family, friends etc and they tend to play down their business. This needs to stop, you are disempowering your business. The second group of people, get it right. They are giving power and fully embody the belief that they are a business expert in whatever they do. You can choose who you are, you get to own your identity. Don’t wait around for someone else to say so, they don’t own your identity, you do. If you desire a life of good income online then you need to give power to your business identity.
BEST MOMENTS
“If you’re in the first group it’s time to do what you need to do”
“We don’t need to wait for someone else to tell us who we are”

This episode was inspired by a post Veronica saw on Facebook, from someone who had assumed something unlikely true about a person who had invited them to connect.
If you’re viewing incoming requests in the same way, then you could be severely limiting the growth of your business too.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
When you are deciding whether to accept a new friend or connection request, do the assumptions you are making serve your goals? Veronica always connects with someone she is considering business with so she can sit back and observe for a while. This so she can get a sense of whether she is on the same page as them and gain more information that she needs to make a decision. Veronica can tell from a quick skim of their posts whether they are likely to spam her newsfeed and be in her inbox trying to sell. If she smells that then she doesn’t accept the request. But, she doesn’t make a general assumption that those connecting with her only want to sell to her. Your life and business will transform if you choose to believe the ‘truth’ that benefits you and disregard the version of the truth that doesn’t benefit you.
BEST MOMENTS
“If you walk around with this cynical mindset it’s not going to serve you”

Veronica wishes you all a Happy New Year!
But, have a think. When did you last ask someone to buy from you?
If you ask yourself this question more regularly and can say you have done it frequently and recently then Veronica guarantees is will have a positive impact on your income!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
If you aren’t doing the associated online tasks needed then this is often the reason your sales will be down. The simple way to fix it is to ask people to buy from you. There are a multitude of ways to do this!
BEST MOMENTS
“If not, do it today!”

Veronica’s journey from where she started to where she is now has been a series of micro-gambles and “knowing” they were the right next step.
Veronica shared a couple of these micro-decisions in a group this week and received a flurry of “that’s really inspiring” responses. So, in this episode, she shares again to hopefully inspire you to make a “knowing” micro-gamble towards YOUR big vision too.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Taking a short term ‘gamble’ can really pay of long term. Focus on your ultimate goal, you may have to suffer short-term but it will be worth it. For example, Veronica took a lower paying job as she knew the skills would set her up better for her future. Sometimes a set-back actually ends up being the reason you achieve the life you want. Veronica lost her driving license but this meant she was more social online, which she then ended up making money from.
BEST MOMENTS
“If you know in your gut that it feels like the right thing to do, and you trust it, the outcome could be fortune and the good outcome you desire”
“Just do it anyway and see what happens…when your hearts says ‘do this’, trust it”

When you have chatted with a prospective client online and they have agreed to buy from you, how quickly and easily can they pay you?
In this episode, Veronica discusses the pros and cons of collecting payment via PayPal me and BACS, why you should customise your PayPal me link (and how), and how to offer PayPal and Stripe – and why.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The longer the period between a clients decision and sending payment, the higher the likelihood you won’t get paid. The more difficult the process of paying you, the higher the likelihood you won’t be paid. Paypal me is a separate area of Paypal where you can create an individual link for people to pay through. Go and explore your sales process and discover how easy it is for potential clients – the easier it is the more likely you will get their money. Thrivecart is a great processor to have on your website. It not only allows clients to pay via paypal and stripe but also via, applepay, google pay and others.
BEST MOMENTS
“If someone isn’t 10/10 excited about paying you, 10/10 excited about buying the thing you’re selling to them…there’s a real chance that they will think it’s easier not to make this payment”
“They don’t have to think about anything else it’s as easy as two clicks”
“Change your process to make it super easy for them to pay you”

Do you have a vision to sell and deliver your programs and services online, globally?
Have you been put off getting started with creating an online program, worrying that the tech side might overwhelm you?
In this episode, Veronica speaks with Vivienne Hill, who helps parents break their habit of over and under-parenting, about her experience of selling and delivering her service online, with minimal tech.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Vivienne is on Veronica’s mastermind course where she created a product to sell for £99/$99. The product she created was to help parents with parenting via hypnosis. Vivienne essentially invited people 121 and sold ‘spaces’ set in a time block rather than putting them in a group scenario. Vivienne says that having the support of the mastermind was key. It wasn’t that she couldn’t create the course herself but this taught her the steps to take and also gave her much needed confidence. Introverts aren’t natural initiators so when they don’t have anything to respond to, they can struggle. Doing a session with someone else can help as then you get back into your ‘responder’ energy.
BEST MOMENTS
“Having guidance, I felt like my hand was being held, that was so important to me”
“You allowed me to be the best of who I was and also you could see for me the things that I couldn’t see myself…that was the magic”
“

In this episode, Veronica speaks to Suzanne Dibble a small business law expert. They talk about networking on facebook during lockdown and the legalities of online business.
Veronica received incredible feedback on this discussion that was originally a Facebook live so persuaded Suzanne to let her share it with you all on the Introvert Online Podcast!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Suzanne and Veronica have been friends for over nine years, and in 2018, Veronica ran Suzanne’s Facebook group and wrote much of the copy for her highly-acclaimed GDPR Pack promotion. Veronica learnt about different communication styles and this is what made her launch the introvert online podcast. So many programmes were aimed at extroverts and this led to many introverts feeling exhausted or burning out as they weren’t designed for them. Veronica and Suzanne value different things so they bring different aspects to the table – neither of them needs to change their approach, it’s just different. Our personalities can be different in real life to online. We might be really introverted offline but extremely extroverted once we are online, so it’s worth noting that. This pandemic has shown us that we don’t know what is coming along in life and there are probably going to me many more things in life that will disrupt our businesses. We need to make them as resilient as possible.
BEST MOMENTS
“You’re really talking directly to your business audience and you’re sharing things of value with those people”
“Don’t separate business from personal, we’re human”
“It’s not our job to make decisions for other people about what they will and won’t like”
“Having flexibility in our contracts…it’s a really good opportunity to think about what could go wrong”

BLACK FRIDAY. It’s the ONE day in the entire YEAR where your audience wake up thinking they might buy something. Your only decision is, will they buy from you, or someone ese?
In this episode Veronica is reframing Black Friday into a weekend filled with opportunities for you to help more people, and dispelling the myth that you must discount your offers.
And, if you’d like Veronica’s help to create a scroll-stopping Black Friday offer and write sizzling promo copy with ease, then join us over in the FREE “Painless Offer Promo Challenge” here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/374505130537774
KEY TAKEAWAYS Advertisers have spent billions of pounds ‘teaching’ people that Black Friday is the day to buy things. Over the past few years Black Friday has started to get negative connotations associated with it. You want your customers to feel good about purchasing from you. If you sell something at one price all year and then discount on Black Friday it doesn’t make everyone else who paid the higher price ‘feel good’. Black Friday can be used as a marketing opportunity in multiple ways. Such as using it as a springboard to start a promotion, test new products or to bring old products back to market.
BEST MOMENTS
“There are multiple, multiple ways that you can use Black Friday as an opportunity”
“You want your client to feel great about their decision to buy from you”

The words you write in your promotional copy matter!
In this episode you’ll discover how to increase the perceived value of time taken and received, so your prospective clients feel what you are selling is MORE valuable and clients feel great about paying you.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Words and wording matter, you can change the whole energy and impact of your written copy by the words you choose and the order you use. Intellectually we know that units of time are the same, eg a week –vs- 7 days. But the impact they have in various scenarios is completely different. The way you word your offers dramatically affects how your client feels about the purchase.
BEST MOMENTS
“How you communicate that time is important and is relevant to the message that you want to deliver”
“1 week feels smaller, more doable, easier than 7 days”
“You can enjoy that little bit of cheese on me today!”

Before you rush to join the recurring revenue train, setting up your own ‘cancel at any time’ subscription-based offering, listen to this episode and ask yourself if you are emotionally ready for the impact of churn on you emotionally and financially.
Many people aren’t, and when they do encounter it, they’re knocked for six.
Luckily, you won’t be one of them!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
‘Start a membership site, they’re great’, you’re taught. ‘Getting 100 members paying you £50 per month is a brilliant way of generating a monthly recurring revenue’, you’re promised! But then you think about going for volume and will often charge a lower subscription charge… People don’t talk about the amount leavers of a membership sites, you will lose them every single month. Often people fall into the trap of feeling like they need to give and create more and more content for their subscribers but actually this can make them overwhelmed and can cause them to leave. There are alternatives to this model, it’s not the ‘holy grail’ of generating online income. When people cancel, it does not mean that you are not ‘worth it’.
BEST MOMENTS
“If it’s going to stop you showing up because you feel hurt because someone has left your membership…then please think before you fall into the trap”
“To the buyers it doesn’t feel like it’s going to be very valuable”
“Don’t get caught up in thinking you have to prove your worth every month”

In this episode, Veronica has just returned from Tony Robbins’ excellent UPW event.
She noticed that even at this event, people were making the same mistake she sees every day… giving other people control over your emotions, thoughts, and actions.
So, who are YOU giving your power away to?
KEY TAKEAWAYS Who are you giving your power away to? If you ever feel overwhelmed or swamped with requests or expectations from others, it’s time to take back your power! If you find yourself overwhelmed, are you allowing people to put ‘things on your plate’. Are you setting the right boundaries? Be careful if comparing yourself to others. It can put undue pressure on yourself to do so many extra things. Family pressures and assumptions often take power away from you without you even realising. Many of us just accept it but you don’t have to. You are the only person that has control over your time and energy.
BEST MOMENTS
“Is there a boundary thing going on where you could actually just say no?”
“If you were truly owning your power over your time and your energy what wouldn’t you do?”
“How you feel is within your power”

In this episode, Veronica talks about a few of the “tells” you may be displaying online that send out very clear signals to others that you are not available to help those who aren’t exactly like you, whether that be to do with race, gender, or ability.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Veronica acknowledges that she herself can often get things wrong. She knows she is not an expert in inclusion but what she is sharing with you is where she is in her own learning journey and hopes it will encourage you to pause for thought. People may not be deliberately excluding people but they are not aware. We are all asleep to so many things. We all have a duty to wake up to where our privilege and unconscious biases are inadvertently offending others. We may not be aware that we are doing things that are hurtful to someone else but it’s our responsibility to educate ourselves. Just being aware of the fact you have privileges and that you will partake in unconscious bias is the first step. Just remember that is isn’t up to others to educate you, there’s education everywhere, you need to do the work on educating yourself.
BEST MOMENTS
“Wake up to where your unconscious biases are leading you to inadvertently exclude people”
“All lives matter is an example of an unconscious bias…the fact that someone can say that is indicative that they are in a privileged position”
“That would be an amazing reality but it’s not the truth”

Veronica think’s it’s about time the online business community changed their perspective about PayPal and Stripe fees. Veronica will never complain about the fees they charge, she has enormous gratitude to the services they provide, listen in to this episode today to discover why!
KEY TAKEAWAYS Many complain about the fees that PayPal and Stripe charge. If you are in this mindset then it means you are seeing it as a small percent loss rather than a large percent gain! Veronica gets to work from home doing what she loves and gets paid for it. She gets paid for it because of the services PayPal and Stripe developed. Just think about the amount of time and money you would have to spend to create and maintain a platform like PayPal and Stripe for people to pay you. PayPal and Stripe also don’t charge you until AFTER you have been paid. This is an immeasurable benefit for so many individuals. If you want more knowledge and help in learning how to leverage Facebook as an introvert to generate more income then contact Veronica to help you today!
BEST MOMENTS
“They invested their resources in creating payment processing platforms that the public trust and that enable me, us, you, to be paid”
“I think that’s an absolute bargain!”
“I have massive gratitude…for what they have made possible for us”

In this episode Veronica reveals:
The irony of watching “The Social Dilemma” on Netflix, and why it shows the theory “when you don’t pay for the product, you are the product” is BS!
Why she is highly sceptical of the timing of this documentary, especially when you cotton on to the message they are drip-feeding us throughout.
And a recommendation for another Netflix show to binge, that demonstrates why turning off your Wi-Fi and heading out to the shops isn’t an escape strategy either!
KEY TAKEAWAYS Veronica is surprised that so many people haven’t thought about the connection between Netflix/binge watching and this programme. Many say if you don’t pay for the product you are the product. When you don’t pay for ‘the thing’ with money it means that you are paying with your data – this is what Facebook does. However Veronica feels like you are also paying to be a product when you watch Netflix, we weren’t born to binge watch. Supermarkets do a similar thing, they have been designed for you to see what they want you to see and then buy it. The key thing is to ‘be awake’ to all of these things. Choose to be conscious.
BEST MOMENTS
“When I say something I do it consciously”
“At some point you have consumed something that has triggered you to have that idea.. and Facebook has done the same”
“Question who is set to benefit from you believing in that”

How do you feel when your facebook posts don’t get engagement? Like what you are doing isn’t working? Listen to what Veronica has to say in this insightful podcast episode – It will change your perception on Facebook and Engagement completely!
KEY TAKEAWAYS Many people signed up to FB over a decade ago, they joined when they were nowhere near the mindset they are in now – particularly in regards to business. Facebook will give you all the customers you want without you having to sign up and use additional platforms. Streamline your newsfeed so that the posts that are in your newsfeed are worthy of your engagement. Algorithm doesn’t have the same ‘rule’ over comments. So if you focus on the right posts and then on the comments, you will reach many potential customers. There are two types of FB posts. One type will get engagement the other type will have impact. The energy required to respond to these different types of post is vastly different. When you write impactful posts and you get very little engagement it can be easy to think that no one is seeing the post – that is simply not true. If you only show up with engagement style posts then people will know very little about you, what you’re about, what you’re selling. The posts with the most impact are actually the posts that will bring you the most money!
BEST MOMENTS
“Ask yourself, why are they telling you that on Facebook? It’s because Facebook is where it’s all happening”
“Engagement is not a measure of impact”
“You have no idea who your impacting, the only thing you have to do is keep showing up with your impactful posts”

We all have at least one thing we perceive as different about ourselves, even if the only difference you perceive in yourself is your introversion.
Veronica met someone this week whose view about their own difference is polar opposite to her own. Something they said stopped Veronica in her tracks.
So, in this episode, Veronica questions how you feel about your own differences, and those of the people you meet. Do you ‘expect’ or ‘accept’ equal consideration for your differences?
And Veronica asks, does expecting to participate equally make you ‘entitled’?
KEY TAKEAWAYS Veronica is used to having to always ask for what she needs, something many people wouldn’t even have to consider. It can be extremely frustrating and really tiring having to have these conversations over and over again. Are people too selfish to think about what others need or is it that we are just more aware of what directly affects our day-to-day world more? Perhaps we only have a capacity to think about a few things so most of us spend that time thinking about things that affect us directly. Every single one us have differences – you should not feel ‘grateful’ for being accepted for your differences, whether that be because of your disability, your introversion, or anything else. All of us individuals dog-tail each other so that we all fit into the puzzle somewhere. Everything balances out. Veronica wants to stop extroversion being the default, without introverts the extroverts are talking to themselves. Introverts ‘fuel’ the extroverts.
BEST MOMENTS
“People say I have a great sense of empathy which is probably right because everything impacts me directly….so I have more awareness than the average person”
“My differences are what create my gift, your differences are what create your gift”
“You are a valuable being – your differences are not just ‘good enough’ they are your magic”.

In this week’s show, Veronica talks about the ways in which you can not just grow your creative content, but repurpose it across different forms of media in order to maximise its impact and visibility. As Veronica discusses, this is also a concept that can be used in order to make sure that you’re using your most effective energies at just the right time.
KEY TAKEAWAYS If your current task requires you to use your extrovert energy, then you may need to recharge before you use it again. Extrovert energy depletes, so follow any extrovert sessions with more subdued, creative tasks in order to give your mind time to recharge and refuel. Repurposing your content between different platforms and formats is a wonderful way of creating material. What begins as an idea can grow into something more substantial. Social media posts are a wonderful way to grow and develop content. By seeing how they are interacted with, we can proof its viability for further adaptation. A comment can grow into a post, which can grow into an email, which can then be turned into a blog post or podcast.
BEST MOMENTS ’There will be times when you’re staring at a blank screen in search of inspiration’ ’The easiest way for us to create content is to respond to something’ ’That's a good deal of visibility from one original piece of effort'

How different your life and business could be if you stopped assuming that the negative outcome is most likely to be the truth?
After all, for every negative outcome, there is an alternative outcome that is positive for you.
Your prospect queries the price you’ve just quoted them. You assume it is because they think it’s too high.
Alternatively, they could think it’s too low. They might only want clarification and have no opinion either way.
In this episode, you’ll discover how your reality can exponentially change when you start assuming the truth is the option that leads to a positive outcome for you!

When what you’re doing isn’t working, it’s easy to think ‘doing’ more is the solution.
That’s not the case. Let’s take a canoe, for example.
If your canoe is on a grassy riverbank, you could break your oars and dislocate your shoulder trying to ‘do’ more rowing.
Despite all your efforts, you’ll get nowhere.
When your canoe is in the river, heading in the downstream, the tide will move you forwards, and you’ll arrive at your desired destination with barely any rowing required on your part.
The grassy bank has no tidal flow. The lack of tidal flow cannot be compensated for with more rowing.
That’s because no amount of strategy will unblock flow.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to operate your life and business from flow, so you reach your ‘desired destination’ faster, and with much more ease.

Many introverts start free Facebook groups because they have been taught that having your own free Facebook group is the best way to build and nurture an audience of eager buyers-to-be.
For the first few weeks, you’re enjoying the buzz, inspired with ideas of what to post. It’s all fun and people are joining and engaging.
Before long, you run out of ideas for what to post. Knowing you should be posting freezes your creativity, and your once engaged group is now silent.
It’s not your fault!
There are two types of free Facebook groups.
The type of group most commonly recommended leads to burnout for introverts.
But, there is another type of free group that is AMAZING for us.
In this episode, you’ll discover which is which.
