Today we're putting the cherry on top of your 2026 marketing toolkit with a long-form episode on trends!

To do that, I'm joined by growth marketing strategist Amanda Laird to chat about five things we’re forecasting for the year ahead, including:

• New ways of building trust 👷
• Why we’re bringing big YOLO energy to our marketing ☝️
• How online business is going analog 📻
• Why Patreon might be the platform to watch 👀
• If done-for-you services are making a comeback 🤝
• And how courses might fare in 2026 🤔

Tune in for a gently-guided look into the murky crystal ball of online biz. Then head to offthegrid.fun/2026 for this whole series!
