Accepting failure means being willing to make mistakes.
In marketing, that willingness is essential — yet many businesses refuse to change.
I often see companies repeating the same language:
"Digital content
With no creativity, fun, or fresh perspective

When I bought 40 acres and three houses to turn a circa-1900 farmhouse into Le Petit Château Inn, no one supported the idea.
After opening, I made a very embarrassing mistake.
My website showed photos of French and Italian vineyards.
The first guests arrived… and immediately left.
Why?
They believed they were booking a château surrounded by vineyards.
The images created the wrong expectation.
I removed the photos immediately and hired a professional photographer.
That failure changed everything.
From then on, I committed to constant marketing innovation:
New ideas
New offers
New ways to stand out
A major success for Le Peti Chateau inn:
Le Petit Château Inn was featured as the centerfold in Le Figaro.
Constant change matters:
Even when it's uncomfortable
Even when it's embarrassing
Even when it's just a small adjustment
Change takes courage.
Today, I apply those same lessons to my podcasting and marketing services.
I help others take creative risks, generate qualified leads, and grow their businessses -because I have lived it
Merci
