SPI 871: If You're Grinding Alone But Want to Win, Listen to This
#871 What do you imagine when you think of a solopreneur? I thought it was about building a business entirely on your own, never asking anyone for help. This gave me a sense of control, especially after losing my architecture job. Whether my brand would succeed or fail, more than anything, I wanted it to be on my terms! Here's the spoiler alert, though. You can't do it alone if you want to make it as an entrepreneur. Believe me, I know the objections: "Hiring is expensive." "Managing people is annoying." But how do we get over these hurdles to level up our businesses? In this episode, I share the hidden costs of going solo and the exact process I've used to find people who would 10x my growth. I discuss overcoming perfectionism, the contrast between collaboration and networking, and red flags to look out for when dealing with people. Join me for this session!

SPI 869: Stop Renting Your Audience. Do This Instead.
#869 Imagine spending years building an audience on social media. Slowly, your followers begin to know, like, and trust you. You're now making sales, and everything is going well. Then one day, it's all gone. You can't access your account, and the platform you were using won't do anything to help. This is what happened to me when I was using Facebook.

It's your insurance policy and the best way to own the audience you've grown! So listen in on this episode because I share the three key pillars of email marketing! Everything from accounts getting suspended or shadowbanned to algorithm changes can affect our livelihoods.
