Gwen Castleberry: From VA to OBM

Claire Pelletreau was just starting to grow her side business as a Facebook ad and marketing consultant when her full-time job disappeared. Desperate to land enough clients just to pay the bills, she was disappointed at how difficult it was to find real tactical advice that would help actually her get paid month to month. The Get Paid Podcast is Claire’s attempt to pull back the curtain on the reality of running an online business. All these people pulling in “six figures” - how are they ACTUALLY doing it? What kind of money do they take home after expenses? What are those expenses, anyway? Are they truly “solopreneurs” or are they supported by a team? What does that team do for them? How are they marketing their offerings and growing their lists? How long did it take to get to where they are?  You’ll discover how different entrepreneurs get paid and what it costs them to bring in that money.

What’s the difference between men and women when it comes to entrepreneurship? That’s a question I tackle today, and the answer has nothing to do with biology. For every online business, there’s what I like to call the “easy button” approach to bringing in regular new leads.  But, in a study I’ll talk about today, more men than women are likely to take this route.  Yes, I’m talking about  ads. And, I’ll break down why we need more women benefiting from this approach. Let’s get into it… This Week on the Get Paid Podcast:   The gender gap in entrepreneurship   The theory of male hubris and female humility    How overconfidence can work in your favor   Why women get more discouraged by failure    The bias that ads mean you’re “cheating.”    Addressing people pleasing will benefit your business   What’s possible when more people, especially women, choose the easy button   Mentioned in this podcast:   clairpells.com/class   Now it’s time to GET PAID Thanks for tuning into the Get Paid Podcast!
