Episode 2: The Five Stages Of Marketing Grief 🎙️Welcome to Episode 2 of How to Run Your Business Without Hating Your Boss! In this episode Michelle and Sara will be talking all about The Five Stages of Marketing Grief. If you’ve ever wanted to throw your laptop out the window because marketing feels exhausting, confusing, or downright grief-inducing, you’re not alone! In this episode, Michelle and Sara unpack what they call The Five Stages of Marketing Grief. Marketing is necessary, but it doesn’t mean we have to love every part of it. Just like grief, our relationship with marketing isn’t a straight line. One moment you’re motivated, the next you’re bargaining with yourself about why you don’t really need it. It’s a cycle - messy, nonlinear, and often frustrating. Join us as we: - Break down the stages of marketing grief (yes, complaining is part of the process!). - Talk honestly about why marketing feels so hard. - Help you recognize where you are in the cycle. - Offer encouragement for when you’re tempted to give up (or just pout a little). Whether you’re in denial about social media, angry at algorithms, or finally making peace with your email list, this conversation will give you perspective, humor, and some practical strategies. ____________________________________________________________________________ About your hosts: Michelle Markwart Deveaux and Sara Campbell are two business strategists who’ve helped hundreds of voice teachers, music educators, multi-teacher studio owners, performers, and creative entrepreneurs build sustainable, money-making businesses that actually align with their values. ____________________________________________________________________________ Mentioned in this show: Sara is now taking applications for her excellent branding and marketing program!
