Great marketing and great branding are about creating an emotional connection between what you do and your audience. Don’t you agree?

I am so excited to be talking to Mark Schaefer about this in today’s episode and how he has taught so many people (including myself) what it takes to market yourself well and build momentum.

He really shifted the way that I approached my market in early 2019, so I really value his perspective.

Mark W. Schaefer is a globally recognized author, speaker, podcaster, and business consultant who blogs at {grow} — one of the top five marketing blogs of the world. He teaches graduate marketing classes at Rutgers University and has written eight best-selling books. Mark’s new book Cumulative Advantage: How to Build Momentum for Your Ideas, Business and Life Against All Odds is an essential new path to being seen and heard in a busy world.

His many global clients include Pfizer, Cisco, Dell, Adidas, and the US Air Force. He has been a keynote speaker at prestigious events all over the world including SXSW, Marketing Summit Tokyo, and the Institute for International and European Affairs. He has appeared as a guest on media channels such as CNN, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and CBS News.

In Today's Episode, We Discuss:

  • How marketing will be shifting going forward

  • Why you don’t need to be on every platform

  • Doing something consistently that brings you joy leads to success

  • What creates opportunity

  • Why it’s okay to feel insecure when you first start something

  • How momentum begins

  • The fastest way to get to another level if you’re stuck

  • How to maintain discipline when things go wrong

I really recommend diving into Mark’s books if you enjoyed the conversation we had about keeping up in a busy and fast-changing world from a digital marketing perspective as a real estate agent.

He offers such great advice and really helped me when I started in my market, so I can’t recommend his books more!
