🎙️When Marketing Feels Hard, You Might Have the Wrong Strategy for You Here's how to know and what to di to change it if it is ...

The Art of Value Whispering Podcast (episode 282) with Melitta Campbell

Lately, I've been noticing something in the conversations I'm having with business owners.

More and more people are quietly admitting that the way they're currently marketing doesn't feel good anymore. It feels forced, complicated, or heavier than it should be. And instead of creating momentum, it's draining their energy.

For many of us — especially those who are introverted or thoughtful by nature — success doesn't come from being everywhere or pushing ourselves into strategies that feel unnatural. It comes from choosing approaches that honour how we work, think and communicate.

In this episode of The Art of Value Whispering podcast, I share what I see most often when someone's marketing feels "off," why it happens, and how you can rebuild a strategy that fits you far better and attracts more of the right clients. I'll walk you through the signs of misalignment and the practical steps you can take to create visibility that feels lighter, clearer and much more sustainable.

💡 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE

⭐ The three clear signs your marketing strategy is misaligned

⭐ Why "doing more" won't fix the problem — and what will

⭐ How misalignment quietly creates resistance, inconsistency and self-doubt

⭐ Why choosing fewer, better-aligned tactics leads to stronger and more sustainable visibility

⭐ How to rebuild your approach so it supports your actual life, energy and season

...and much more!
