The episode, in writing
by Richard Lovatt · from the episode above, checked against what was said
Here is what I wanted to record and document properly: the process of what it is like when you see the ad, how it feels, what it looks like, then through to the landing page, leaving your email, logging you in, and then that experience as a free user. I have been working on this a lot, and it has taught me a lot, so I wanted to show you what that is like.
This is what people would see in their for you page. Here's the text: "This shouldn't work, but it does. I run this on my own, and every update I film sounded like a pitch, script and stiff. Then I found this app." It listens then asks what matters. So let's just click sign up.
I did want to record this on the phone, so you can see it's a bit of a different experience on the phone. The issue is there's a part of this I want to show you where the AI speaks to you, and on the phone you can't pick that up. Some of you might say there's a way to do it, well there is, but it's fiddly and I can't be arsed.
So this is what you see, my beautiful face. "Missed the beginning." "Don't miss this chapter two." You get sold as you scroll down. "Five years from now, you'll wish you'd recorded this part." It sells you all the way down. It's pretty decent, to be honest.
If we do Rich plus zero one, hopefully it doesn't remember me. Email me tips, yes, I definitely want the tips and the community. Start your free five episodes. So it should take us straight through to the app. Opening Underway. Let's allow.
So here's step one, and I've categorised it, so it's like achieving little things. It used to just be boom, now it's you've got to do this first. But we've also got talk me through it, and I want to show you that, and how intuitive it is, especially for people who come through and feel there's too much going on.
So I've filled in what it's called and what I'm documenting. Documenting Underway going worldwide. Quite easy to understand, and I've added that because when I put myself in the shoes of anyone doing this who is brand new to it all, it actually does help, and she's very helpful.
What she also does here is give you your next options. So you've got step two, see how it works. Again you get this option for Coral to jump in and help you, or you can look around a real account, which is a demo account. It's actually my account mirrored, so it gives you that feel. Record an episode, thirty six days in a row. What's it noticed. Steve's episode is live. Your ads have brought in ten leads a month straight. So you've got all that, you've got what could we film, all these different topics. You can click on context, so you can see what I'm connected to, Underway's brain. You can click on vault, you can see all of these videos, you can even watch them. You've got all these different agents at the top, account. So many things you can look around just to see what it would feel like once you've got going. Then you can click back to get back to your actual account.
If you do the talk me through it, she'll also take you through the top tabs. As you can see, when you first start an account, the amount of options you get at the top is less. It's a light account, and I've done this specifically just as to not overload you. So really the start is just getting recording, just talking, interacting, connecting things. And as you progress and get a certain number of episodes done, it will introduce more complexity if you want.
She will walk you through the top and explain that this is Underway's brain, this is how it gets context on your day and what you've done, and it will inform it and create better questions. It's all here and you can connect everything in here. She'll show you the vault, this is where all your episodes live, and it's all private until you want to go public. And here you've got account, where you can check the series, everything to do with the series. You've got connections again, but this is more in depth about it. And then you've got account, which is more co-hosts, your footage, billing, et cetera.
Then you come back. So you've got step two, talk me through it, look around the account. There's a welcome film there, you can watch that as well. And then you've got next episode zero. This is really step one, and I did want to make this so people don't feel like they're committing, because often people jump in and they're just like, I want to see what this is about. They might not be ready there and then. But it's a concept you've got to think about, how am I going to start this. So I did want to make this episode zero, like practice. If you want to practice and just feel what it's like so you know when you're ready, you can do that, and it's free, I'm paying.
The only thing I'll say is it's taken a while. I don't know what it just referenced there, because I wasn't really talking about anything, so it seems to have just guessed what I was talking about. You'll see a lot of this stuff, I find bugs as I go, and it is what it is. Now I can try it again with just my voice. I can't remember if I had video or audio available, it kind of just jumped into the video, and I don't think I wanted that. What I wanted was the option for people to practice and choose video like we did, or audio.
So click not now and we're back here. It's kind of boom, you're done. At this point you've got my emails, you've got the community invite, and everything's there and ready. I think it's pretty good. There's a few little bugs, but in terms of an experience, I think it's pretty flawless.
