On today’s Marketing Home, Marketing You podcast episode, we are sharing tips to help us all be better about leaving work at work so that we can be as successful from 5-9 as we are from 9-5.

We’ve all been guilty of it at one point. Our work stress, tasks, and thoughts tagalong with us all the way home instead of staying in the office. When you’re juggling about 550 things at once, it’s easy to let work spill over into other areas of your life. Before you know it, you feel like a failure at work and at home. No bueno.

We are wrapping up our mini training series on outreach marketing and we’re ending it with my favorite piece of outreach marketing because to me, this is what reallyyyy separates you from your competitors and is the difference in the level of results that you’ll see. It’s FOLLOW UP! This is such an important step because 50% of prospects never receive a follow-up, which is bonkers to me! This stat (as slightly depressing as it is) should show you why unbelievably important it is for you and your team to have & stick to a follow up plan.

There are a lot of reasons that Outreach Marketing can be scary and one of the biggest reasons is figuring out what to say at the businesses you visit. You’ve worked up the courage to go, now what?

A lot of times we have the best intentions but then when it comes to actually starting the conversation, we somehow seem to resort back to our awkward middle school selves when our crush finally talked to us. More “uh’s” and “um’s” seem to come out rather than actual words and our body language reads more like “help me, I’m stuck in a train wreck and can’t get off!” Rather than “Hi, I’m a normal person who knows how to hold an engaging conversation.” 

This overwhelming feeling is exactly what this episode of Marketing Home, Marketing You is covering and to make things even better, my BFF and business partner Lauren Emmot is joining me!

In this episode, part one of a multi-part series, we start to dive into everything outreach marketing and why you NEED to be doing it.
