“You could have the best product, book, service, whatever it is, but if you don't talk about it or anything, how will people know to buy it?”

She breaks down the marketing psychology behind high-converting personal brands and explains why engagement metrics don’t always equal revenue. You’ll learn how to craft a content strategy that attracts ideal clients, nurture genuine relationships, and ultimately convert followers into paying customers, without sounding salesy.
