Have you ever gotten tired of what you were doing? Or thought about doing something different with your business? Have you ever wanted to just throw in the towel because your business leaves you feeling overwhelmed?

 

I’ve been there more than once. And when I start to feel like I want to quit, I remember the words of one of my mentors. She told me, “Don’t quit, shift.” Take it from me, sticking to this journey is hard but it’s worth the fight to get what you want. And that’s what I’m going to talk about today with Emily Aborn in this episode.

 

But this is actually a chat we recorded for Emily’s podcast, She Built This. I’m excited to share it with you because I talk about some changes I’m working on behind the scenes and why my business will look a little different in 2022.

Are you thinking about creating an online course to grow your business? That is what you see online all the time as the best way to generate income and grow your business. But will this so-called expert advice work for your business? 

You have to make that decision for yourself based on your expertise, your target audience and demand in your industry. Well I’ve decided that creating an online course isn’t a good fit for my business. Deciding not to create an online course wasn’t an easy decision to make and had been a question mark for me for way too long. So in this episode I talk about the following:

• 3 myths you hear about online courses
• Alternatives you can consider to grow your income and your business

Personalized marketing is what is going to really boost your business growth and your revenue. One of the best ways to nurture relationships that bring about this type of growth is effective email marketing. One lesson all of us have learned by now is that you need to rely on more than social media because you don’t own those accounts and the platforms can go down at any time. 

But you own your email list! So it’s time to ditch the boring PDFs, guides and worksheets and start using quizzes! Quizzes are the low hanging fruit of marketing that is fun, engaging and intuitive. They help people feel seen and heard because you’re serving them better. But is it the right marketing tool for your business? How do you even create one?

You’ll get the answers to those questions and more during this chat with Linda Sidhu, the quiz queen!
