The episode, in writing
by Richard Lovatt · from the episode above, checked against what was said
Guys, we're back, episode thirty five. Yesterday evening was actually a big day. I actually went public yesterday. Now obviously right now the directory on Underway is like there's no one there except me. So it's like I went live and launched to no one. But it's cool. So, kind of a big day, which means everything I'm doing now is public. I was stealth before, but I'm doing what this whole thing was planned for now. And going public also made me realize a few things.
This is the directory, and this is where everything will go public, as well as your socials if you push things there. But this was really bare bones before, and I realized it needed some work, which is the cool thing about using the app yourself as I'm building it. I'm using each and every function as it goes, and then it makes me realize, okay, this needs to redevelop. So now if I go back to the directory, this is businesses being built right now, and hopefully soon we're gonna have hundreds of people building here, but right now it's just me. So you can see, recent launches, me.
And the cool thing about that is, if you buy a certain membership, you get this. You're building stealth if you want, and then when you go to launch, you can actually create launch trailers, launch videos. So as you can see, it's release lately, it's all my episodes. Building Underway, Building Polar Joy, that's one I had to create for the Apple review because I was still waiting on my app to come back. So, for example, let's click on Building Underway. It's thirty five episodes at the minute. Season zero, before anyone was watching.
If we click on that, now everyone gets this aspect, so it's like you put your logo there, what you're about, what you're doing, about this series, your name, you've got filters. So you've got shorts, longs, podcasts, trailers. So I put together a trailer here, which is from idea to app store submission. And that kind of takes every episode from when you started from zero, up to the episode when you went live and when you went public. And then it mashes it all into like a boom boom boom. So we can look at all of it, which means everything's gonna be here, and we can watch it all.
And then also you've got podcasts at the bottom, which is pretty cool, and I'm gonna push these to Apple and Spotify too. So yeah, that's that guys, I went live.
But one thing I will show you here, and this has been working really well. In the account section on publishing, this is your page in the directory. You see here there's a button that says take it all private. So before it was all private already, and you can basically take it all public. So in one click, you can take everything you've ever recorded and push it live. And so that's what I did. But at the same time, what you can do is, if you go into Vault, because I've got everything live in the directory but at the minute obviously no one knows about that and where to find it, basically no eyeballs. But what we can do as well is individual episodes, push live as well. So if I go on episode thirty four here and click on share, publish new version, this goes to the directory, but I can post each of them to each of these profiles. It posts to them all easily. It just submitted it. It's all done. It actually works really really well.
One thing I did yesterday, let me show you here, like episode zero. Now this is a podcast. Everyone who films and creates anything on Underway, your first episode will be with your AI co host as a podcast. But I've still created them as videos as well, so that you can publish to YouTube, which I have done. But one thing I did yesterday was improve this aspect, which is called the post. So when you do actually post it to YouTube, the reason I worked on this is because I post it to YouTube and the description and the writing was just so bad. Obviously it was AI, and I was like, we need to improve that. So I put one together myself, gave it a knowledge base on how we need to structure them. And so now, when you publish to these social programs, the descriptions that go with it are actually really good as well.
So you've got YouTube, LinkedIn posts. And if I click, obviously it's already on YouTube now because it's episode zero, because I went live. But on YouTube it basically pulls that through, pulls the thumbnail through, which is here, and it pulls the description through and posts it. It's honestly so good. And the same with all of these. The only one that doesn't work automatically is X, because you have to pay. Snap doesn't work either. But yeah, it's pretty good to be honest guys.
One more aspect I want to show you, whilst I'm waiting for Apple to get back to me about my App Store submission. I have this notice block, and this is for milestones. So in the background it's following and noting your milestones, like your first payment, your first customer. If you connect everything, it'll look for these things, and then it will nudge you like this and tell you, hey, you've just done this. But this seems to be a bit of a bug, so I'm going to look into this, because it's like, Rich, you're at a thousand subscribers, and obviously I've connected it to YouTube, but I've been past a thousand, I'm on like twenty seven hundred, I've been past it for a long time, so I need to figure out where it's pulled this data and why it thinks I'm at a thousand.
But the whole point of these, guys, is that let's say it's your first customer, and when it happens, it knows. So that might be a monumental moment for you, it might make you be like, oh this is amazing, probably when I get my first customer, whoever that is, it will be a good moment. And so you have this ability to record a moment right now, just so you can grasp how you feel about it, and record that, and that will get saved. Or you can say, ask me at debrief time, aka it's just going to learn it, it's going to know it, and later on in the day it might ask you about it in the interview.
So that's there, which is pretty cool. I think that's enough, guys, don't you. Let's end it there.
