Small businesses and solopreneurs often use marketing as a way to make themselves look good; like they've got it together and offer huge value.
Ironically, this often has the effect of pushing people away. We're so focused on making ourselves look cool and amazing that we end up intimidating our audience; making them feel unsafe. The opposite of what we most desire!
In this podcast, I talk about tendency to look amazing and leave our clients out of our messages and ways we can create more trust and safety so our right-fit clients feel good about us and truly want to take next steps to work with us.

There are a lot of dynamics, internal and external that suggest we should worry about the people who don't like/aren't interested in our creations and services. Unfortunately when we focus on the "no's" we stay small and invisible.
To connect with the people who genuinely want our creations and services it's important we focus on the yeses regardless of the pressure to do otherwise.

Becky Lyter McCleery has been creating and hosting summits for years.
As a marketer I love how Becky's summits offer lots of visibility for experts, visibility for her own business, and value for the audience. I love when marketing creates visibility and value for everyone involved.
Her summits are a win for all everyone involved. Summit speakers share valuable tips and advice and enlarge their audience, audience members receive lots of useful information for growing their businesses, and Becky offers a central point to receive this information and grows her own following.
My conversation with Becky was a master class in how to create win win summits while avoiding common pitfalls.

When you email or post an offer or invitation, most people will ignore it or forget about it even if they are genuinely interested and would benefit by saying yes.
This is because people are incredibly busy and usually pay attention only to the things that are calling the loudest for their immediate response.
This means we, business owners, need to send reminders. Reminders increase the possibility that the people who want what you're offering will see and respond to your offer.
We do, of course risk annoying some people and they will unsubscribe. Here is my approach to creating reminders that feel clear and respectful AND reach the right people.

We all think we know how word of mouth marketing works because it comes naturally to us. I think it's useful to share word of mouth marketing success stories because they bring how how word of mouth works and helps us understand how it can work for our business.

To become more visible and connect with more ideal people, I thought being a podcast guest was the way to go. Alas, I discovered it's hard to be a podcast guest when the podcasts that seem to be a "good fit" are steeped in "social influence style" and I strongly dislike this popular trend. Do I suck it up and pitch to podcasts even if I can't bear to listen to them? Do I remain trapped in obscurity? What to do?

In the world of entrepreneurs it's common to hear the advice "suck it up" and you'll be glad you did when you're making all that money, enjoying fame, etc. But is that true? Do we really have to do things that feel out of alignment with who we are to create what we want? Here's my experience and what I've learned.If you find the Marketing Root Work podcast valuable, please become a subscriber!

There is so much advice out there showing us "how" our marketing should sound. And there are a lot of clever ideas out there telling us how we can be seen and stand out. In my experience, however, what our audience wants most is US; imperfect, a little messy but being who we really are. In this podcast I share my personal journey going from clever (and not very effective) to authentic, messy and far more effective when it comes to connecting with the people who want what I offer.If you find the Marketing Root Work podcast valuable, please become a subscriber!

We tend to think of our inner critic as a kind of "touch love" coach who just wants us to be our best self. But after having a little chat with my own inner critic I learned that, no, what she really wants is to keep me safe as a respected member of the tribe. So how do we help this fierce mama bear back down so we can move forward?If you find the Marketing Root Work podcast valuable, please become a subscriber!
