Episode Details

Welcome to our second monthly forecast episode! This is an experiment I'm trying exclusively on the pod feed where I check in on the first Friday of each month to share a few fun marketing trends, this month's biz-care to-dos, and listener Q&A!

This month, you’ll hear:

• why I'm super into newsletter ads right now
• how to plan your spring sales calendar
• my process for deciding what’s free and what’s paid in my business ecosystem

Plus! Some great listener comments about cultivating visibility and community off social media.

Tune in, then get in touch to share your Qs for next month…
