How to strike a balance between sharing your personal life online to propel your business. We get into the nitty-gritty of crowdfunding, what considerations you need to make before launching. You'll learn how to handle making a mistake and the importance of not dwelling when you need to readjust your goals and targets. We talk about why leaning into your niche is the key to your success.
