Today Aly Robins and I talked all about overcoming challenges as a rural business owner. We explored what it looks like to chase big dreams in a small town and how your business thrives when you have a healthy mindset. 

 

Aly Robins is a marketing strategist and business coach for agriculture and rural businesses. She grew up on a ranch outside of Helena, Montana, and got a bachelor's degree in rangeland management. After feeling unfulfilled working at her 9-5 job, she decided to take her marketing business full time. Now, she helps her clients set up a website that converts people into paying customers as well as utilizing social media to increase sales. She's extremely passionate about helping businesses in rural and agriculture industries thrive rather than just survive.

In this episode about overcoming challenges as a rural business owner, we cover: 

• How to combat criticism from those who just don’t understand what we’re doing or why we’re doing it
• The importance of being confidently rooted in our “why” 
• The power of community and surrounding yourself with others who support you and understand your mission 
• The unique challenges and opportunities of marketing a rural and/or ag business
