MOTM #582: Building Badass with Kathy Sierra

Age is just a number—except for when it isn’t. I’ve had some clients wonder if they’re just “too old” to be starting a personal business on Instagram, and it’s a valid question. Even though social media seems to be a “young” persons game (whatever that means), there are millions of people of all ages online. […]

How the hell do you know the “right” way to start an online business venture? Do you start with the thing you care about, or do you do the thing you know will make more money? Does have to be one or the other? Y’all know I’ll always advocate for doing the thing that lights […]

If you’re like me and you’re building a personal brand, you already know that trust is everything, and when building that trust with your audience, having a direct line of communication with them is golden.
