Join Tayler and revenue strategist Frenchie Ferenczi as they tackle the real goal of marketing: staying close to the money.

It's not often you get to sit down with a lawyer let alone someone like with Braden Drake—a lawyer for creatives, business owners, and drag artists. But this episode isn't what you'd expect because most lawyers aren't entrepreneurs. And we dug into one of the most important things any entrepreneur can do—create irresistible offers. From what to think about when you're coming up with the best offer you can to how to handle it when the haters show up because your offer is just that good, we talk strategy, the absurdity of overpriced templates, and why sometimes shaking up the market is the best move you can make. But don't get it twisted! This is not legal advice.
