A Podcast by The Mamones

    Be a Guest on Hocus-Focus

    We're just starting to invite guests, and we want each one to be someone with something real to say.

    Every few episodes, we sit down with a photographer, videographer, or creative entrepreneur who has built something worth studying. Not the highlight reel. The actual mechanics of how the business works, what it cost, and what you'd do differently.

    If that sounds like your story, tell us about it below.

    Who We Say Yes To

    We're picky, and we'd rather be honest about why.

    You've done it, not just taught it.

    Lived experience beats theory every time. Our audience can tell the difference in about ninety seconds.

    You'll talk about the money.

    Real pricing, real numbers, what you charged and what you'd charge now. Vague is boring.

    You serve creatives.

    Photographers, videographers, and creative entrepreneurs are who's listening. Your work should matter to them.

    You'll be generous with the how.

    Give people something they can actually use in their business or life today.

    Where We Usually Say No

    Nothing personal, and it's almost always about fit rather than quality.

    • Pitches that are really a product launch in disguise.
    • Inspiring stories with no method underneath them.
    • Mindset conversations with nothing tactical to hold onto.

    What We'll Ask You

    Hocus-Focus is built on the idea that it's not always about more. Sometimes it's about different and better. Three questions do most of the work, so it's worth spending a minute on them before you submit your application. We want the specific angle you'd cover, any corporate or B2B experience you've built, and why your take lands with our audience.

    Specific beats polished. An authentic story, a creative idea, a mindset shift or a rough framework about something real will always beat something generic every time.

    What Happens Next

    1. 1We read every application.
    2. 2If it's a fit, you'll get an invitation with a link to book your recording, and a short prep email before we roll.
    3. 3If it isn't, you'll hear that too. We won't leave you wondering.

    Tell Us About You

    We can't promise a yes. We can promise serious consideration and that you'll hear back from us soon.
