Yes, you read that right. Perry Belcher, investor, direct response marketing specialist, and co-founder of Digital Marketer.com, is my third podcast guest.

I needed to talk to someone who understands what the business owners are going through these tough times. You’ll never know how excited (and nervous) I was when he agreed to do this interview.

Here are the topics you need to listen to in this episode:

If a light switch can go digital, why couldn't your business?

The pandemic has taught you a hard lesson. Better not take the lesson for granted. 

Or just like a light switch, get turned off.

Here's a summary of my lockdown life as a virtual professional in the Philippines, serving clients as a social media manager and a mentor to aspiring virtual professionals.

How's your business doing during these challenging times?

What do you do when you put up a business and there are no clients coming in?

You cry first. Done? Good. Then you get back up and listen to this episode.

I love postcards! But I never expected that old things, such as postcards, could still give you and I marketing lessons.

The old sage, "You are the five people you surround yourself with" is true, most especially in entrepreneurship. I re-learned the old sage's lesson again through a story that I share with you in this episode.

On October 30, 2019, I took a test: I created a webinar for social media managers and business owners or entrepreneurs, whose Facebook Pages got banned or disappeared like a ghost. In this episode, I share with you the lessons that I learned from my test webinar.

There is a marketing lesson in pizzas. I commended the pizza driver for what he did that most marketers fail to do - testing.

Entrepreneurs and Business Owners: This is my let's-sit-down-and-really-talk-about-the-truth episode for you.

This broadcast (via Facebook Live) is for our 8-to-5 employees who were asked to work from home, as stated in Proclamation numbers 929 and 922, and Republic Act 11932.  

As mentioned sa live broadcast ng Presidente last March 12, 2020, employees are asked to work from home. For me and for the rest of the guests that I gathered for this broadcast, this isn’t a big deal. We are blessed to do our work in the comforts of our home. Pero ganu’n lang ba kadali mag-trabaho sa bahay?  

You, as an 8-to-5 employee, go home to your families daily kasi your home is your haven. Ang bahay ninyo ang inyong sacred space. Paano kapag sa loob ng isang buwan, makikihati sa inyong sacred space ang inyong trabaho?  

Kaya I am happy and honored that our guests tonight said YES to my invitation for this broadcast. Sila ang pwedeng makatulong sa inyo kung paano mag-work from home without sacrificing the sacredness of home.
