Build an Obsession Brand

Maureen expresses how the things we are often afraid of are not actually that scary. Being embarrassed, falling on your face, being vulnerable…all of these things keep us from taking action. In this episode, Maureen discusses how to face fear and overcome it.

Here are four things to remember when dealing with fear: - Learn how to relax into fear - Embrace fear by moving towards it (feel it, allow yourself to cry, whatever) - Notice how you want to constrict against fear (if it feels safer) - Fear is protective when needed and harmless when it's not

Maureen and Marketing Expert Nicole share how to use organic traffic and ads to grow your business reach, the importance of strategizing a year in advance, growing your reach during Quarters 1-3 to leverage for Quarter 4, and the challenges of entrepreneurship.

Odette shares how working with Maureen took her from an idea to a 6 figure business in just 12 months.  Her store has sold out multiple times, even at an increased price point!

Learn how you can shift your mindset to achieve your goals!  Odette explains how her negative thoughts were a huge factor in her success.

See how organic traffic and sales worked for Odette's growth.  She targeted her audience on social media through content.  Her strategy showed people how her products can help vs. selling, and it became a service rather than an ad.

Odette used Maureen's strategy to sell before her website was ready, and then utilized a website to sell once it went live.

She also discussed creating a luxury popup shop, and how it worked for her business.
