Broadcast Date July 31, 2019

Let me just say catching up with today’s guest was so super cool! This past weekend I travelled down the shore to the legendary Bridgewater Exhibition for a backstage interview with the award-winning and wonderful kindred spirit Aaron Goodvin. The Alberta Born/Nashville-based, platinum Country recording artist is, as they say, the real deal.  His amazing vocals and killer lyrics have made him a radio favourite with an ever-growing fan base – and while he’s been busy hitting the top 10 with his tunes – plenty of major acts like Jon Pardi and Cole Swindell and Luke Bryan are recording other great songs he’s written as well.  So while his band was busy setting up and sound-checking we sat down to talk about all of it… from the stories behind the music to his real-life love story, his process for songwriting, his take on destiny, his affinity for romantic comedies and so much more. Plus we play – a fun round of 1st Things First, a rapid round of Insights IN 10 and as much of his marvellous music as we can squeeze into the hour. So with all that ahead – we best get to it – here’s my conversation with the one and only Aaron Goodvin.

We loved playing some of Aaron’s amazing music all the tracks are available on iTunes and you’ll find the link to each tune by clicking on the title “Lonely Drum,” “Woman In Love,” “Knock On Wood,” “Miss Me Yet,” “Bars and Churches” and “Kill a Kiss.”

You’ve just gotta watch the beautiful video for “Woman In Love” (which features Aaron & Victoria’s real-life wedding) – go on… we’ll wait!

That comedian that Aaron mentioned – who played Tom Haverford on PARKS AND RECREATION is Aziz Ansari

Aaron mentioned writing with Jeffrey Steele – and oh my goodness do we love Jeffrey!!! He co-produced my sophomore CD WAY OVER MY HEART and wrote a bunch of tracks for it too including “My Greatest Love” – you can listen to that duet by Jeffrey Steele and me here.  For more on Mr.Steele check out his website jeffreysteele.com

Remember when I thought Drew Barrymoore starred in A CINDERELLA STORY and Aaron corrected me saying it was Hillary Duff – well, the movie I was thinking of was EVER AFTER: A CINDERELLA STORY …. sorry about that.

And for the record here’s Aaron’s DM confirming the actors he and Victoria would like to star in their biopic.

CHESTER RACE WEEK

Chester Race Week

“We reached out to Stephanie just a few weeks before Chester Race Week, hoping she could help us with our social media, and she jumped right in. She came up with some very creative reels and produced content that was polished, professional, and fun, elevating our online presence. She brought great energy and enthusiasm, knew exactly what we needed, and exceeded our expectations. Stephanie was a real pleasure to work with, and we’re so grateful for the excellent work she delivered for Race Week.”

Got Your Back Apparel

“Launching a brand comes with hundreds of boxes to tick, and Stephanie helped us focus on what truly mattered. She didn’t feel like a consultant — she felt like an owner, fully invested and growing the company right alongside us. From marketing and promotions to our online shop and in-person markets, she brought clarity, momentum, and confidence at every step. Her passion, attention to detail, and genuine belief in what we were building made all the difference. I highly recommend working with her!”

ROCK THE FIDDLE

Rock the Fiddle

“We were thinking about launching our inaugural festival when we realized we had no social media, or even a website. We figured we would have to delay our launch to get it sorted. We contacted Stephanie Beaumont and within 24 hours we had full social media presence, a landing page and the structure for our website, and she even created our graphic branding which will live on as our permanent festival brand. More impressive than that, within 5 days under Stephanie’s social media management, we had over 1000 followers on our event page. We contracted Stephanie to manage our social media leading up to our event and she was a rock star! We simply couldn’t have done it without her.”

South Shore Tourism Cooperative

“It was a true pleasure working with Stephanie to create visitsouthshore.ca. Stephanie’s unique ability to weave business details into stories creates a picture in the mind of the would-be travel that has them standing on Nova Scotia’s South Shore while still seated at home planning their visit.

Stephanie writes with enthusiasm and delight that can be felt in each word she puts on the page. When the task at hand is to create not only the want to travel but to ensure the destination is chosen as THE spot to travel to, Stephanie’s ability to create an emotional connection and to elicit memories was a perfect fit.

Stephanie’s level of understanding allows her to look at the site from the visitor, the organization and the businesses being represented points of view. She kept us focused on our concept while ensuring the fun flag was always waving!

Stephanie was a true joy to work with and we appreciate the continued relationship! We can’t imagine telling Nova Scotia’s South Shore story without her.”

“Working with Stephanie on our Shop Local campaign was an absolute dream! She was full of creative ideas, professional guidance, and the work she did was always, always top-notch.

She answered every silly question I had and really took the time to explain the why’s behind everything and make sure I understood the process. We now have a fully formed marketing campaign that can be easily rolled out in future years thanks to Stephanie’s fantastic work.

In addition to the quality work she produces, she’s also got a wonderful, enthusiastic personality and is a blast to work with! – I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for help with a variety of marketing and design needs –  and I hope to be able to work with her again in the future.”

The Year Round Vegetable Gardener

“Jumping from radio and writing into TV was both fun and easy with the experienced guidance of Stephanie from Rae of Hope Productions.

She crafted a high-quality pilot that received rave reviews from gardeners across Canada and the US who tuned in to hone their gardening skills. She’s professional, creative, knowledgeable, and most of all, enthusiastic, which made me comfortable every step of the way.”

“Stephanie was wonderful to work with – full of exuberance, yet professional and focused. Her preparation ahead of time made filming easy and enjoyable, and the end result was loved by our whole Board of Directors.

With her guidance and expertise, the entire project ran on time, on budget, and with no stress at all.

Thank you, Stephanie!”

Tourism Chester

“Stephanie led the Tourism Chester program for us for a little over two years helping us build it from the ground up.

She was a great addition to the team, bringing an incredible amount of energy and creativity to the role and was always coming up with new and innovative ideas to expand the program.”

Erin Lowe

Economic Development Officer, Municipality of Chester

The Chester Playhouse Theatre

“What a wonderful experience I had in working with Stephanie. When The Chester Playhouse suspended programming due to the pandemic, we were faced with a dark stage – a cancelled season and no way to entertain our audience. However, like us, Stephanie knew the show must go on so she suggested we host our very own radio program and as a result, The Chester Playhouse Radio Show was created! Not only did Stephanie do the research, write, and produce the 2-hour weekly broadcast – she jumped on to co-host with me. The 9-week campaign allowed us to reach our loyal patrons, grow our audience, and thank our generous sponsors all while keeping the Chester Playhouse Theatre brand centre stage in our community. It was truly fun and oh so fortuitous!”

Digby Area Learning Association

“It was an absolute pleasure to work with Stephanie while developing a new website for our organization. Stephanie’s enthusiasm, creativity, and ability to accurately envision our needs was a huge plus.  It was apparent that customer satisfaction is a top priority for Stephanie as she worked very diligently to ensure that the final result met our expectations.

I can easily say that they not only met expectations but exceeded them. She took the extra steps to make sure we understood the concepts of marketing, branding, and communication, and I feel I learned a lot from her in a very lot from her in a short period of time.  I would certainly recommend Stephanie Beaumont and her company, Rae of Hope Productions for any of your marketing needs.”
