Straight Talk: Value Add, Email Marketing and Mother In Law Drama
In today's episode, we're digging into your questions and serving up some good old-fashioned straight talk, with a side of strategy and a whole lot of honesty. We love these Q&A episodes because they let us get right to the heart of what you're dealing with in your rural businesses. No fluff, no filters. Just real conversations, straight from the inbox.
We kick things off with a big one: marketing beef nationwide when you have limited time, four kids under 12, and a whole lot on your plate. From why going hyper-local can actually make your life easier to how Kendall uses pop-up freezers and mailers to bring in customers, we talk through what works (and what doesn't) when you're not a fan of social media.
From there, we dive into a few more listener-submitted questions about everything from the logistics of transitioning away from in-person sales to what to do when your mother-in-law just won’t stop offering unsolicited advice about your farm store (we had thoughts!).
This one goes a little long, but we cover a lot of ground, and we hope it gives you some practical ideas and the encouragement to trust your gut in building a business that actually works for your life.
