This episode is a little different—because I’m shining the spotlight on something I created just for you: the One Thing Summit! If you've ever stared at a blank screen trying to figure out what to post, or felt overwhelmed by all the conflicting marketing advice out there, this summit is for you.

I brought together over 40 of the most generous, wise, and brilliant marketing experts and asked them each one question: What's one thing every small business owner should do to get better results from their marketing? Their answers? Pure gold—and you can access it all for free. In this episode, I’m breaking down what you can expect from the One Thing Summit and why this is a can’t-miss opportunity.
