If your business has been slow this year, Episode 535 of the Marketing Mentor Podcast is for you! 

Because you are not alone!

It's been a struggle for many Marketing Mentor clients and members of the Simplest Marketing Plan.

But the good news is that very few of the people in my circle were freaking out.

Know why?

Because they knew what to do: they got to work on outreach, content marketing and networking. (That's the Simplest Marketing Plan in a nutshell!)

And guess what? It worked.

It sometimes took longer than they wanted it to, but things have started to shift and now, many of these people have more work than they can handle.

Because it’s true that when it rains, it pours. 

That’s what happened to Maria Guerriero of Germinate Creative.

She suggested we do a podcast about it because she wanted to share:

• how she handled the slowdown
• what worked for her
• and why it worked

I just love how real and honest Maria is – I’m sure that’s one of the things her clients love too.

So listen here (and below):

Baby Step?

Maria's baby step is a good one – talk to someone!

I love that because one of the biggest misconceptions about marketing -- what so many people fail to realize -- is how important relationships are when it comes to getting clients.

Sorry, but it's rarely (and never solely) about your design style or your writing ability.

It’s about who you are and how you show up -- as a professional but also as a human being. 

I believe that need will only get stronger as AI permeates our world.

Things, they are a-changin! So if you want my help figuring all of this out, take advantage of my free mentoring session.
