Guess what happens when you have the right attitude, a willingness to take action and a little chutzpah.
No, don’t guess.
Just listen in to my conversation with Stephanie Mickelson, a content writer who is getting new clients left and right -- right now!
A couple weeks ago I did a free mentoring session with Stephanie. She was a podcast listener who had heard me mention that I offer this free session – which is the "lever" I recently added to my outro – so she jumped on it.
I could tell right off the bat that this woman is smart, has the right mindset and just needed a little direction. So that’s what I gave her.
I also explained that my podcast guests are people who practice what i preach, which is what she’s pretty much already doing without knowing it. And of course it’s working, because marketing works – when you do it!
She confessed that she had no training in marketing – which she called a weakness – but her success is proof that training really isn’t necessary.
Let me repeat her baby step, with which I totally agree. “Start where you are with what you have.” It really is that simple! Try it.
I just loved so many of the things she said and I wanted you – my listeners – to hear them too. So I invited her to be a guest – and here we are.
So listen here (and below) and learn…
You can also:
- See the LinkedIn post she references in our conversation.
- Find Stephanie's newsletter, The Simple Freelancer, on Substack
- Listen to the Episode 524 of my podcast with Leslie Blaize that she referenced.
If you want my help figuring all of this out, take advantage of my free mentoring session – that’s what Stephanie did and look what it got her! You can find that and lots more resources, including my Simplest Marketing Plan at marketing-mentor.com. So enjoy and I’ll see you next time.
