Throughout my university career, I tried to build my personal brand online. But I didn't get anywhere because I wasn't treating it like a full-time job.
I almost gave up...
I don't regret that time one bit because I learned valuable skills I wouldn't have learned from my classes:
It felt impossible to build an online presence. So, I took the time to use my expertise in brand identity design in this new adventure. For 4 years, I helped entrepreneurs and small businesses create brand identity systems and identity animations while in high school. Why couldn't I use this experience to connect with people online?
Through my journey, I've helped over 600 entrepreneurs build their online presence and built up over seven years of marketing experience. I discovered my specialty is helping entrepreneurs attract leads to their businesses.
Marketing can be a force for change. I truly believe it.
I'm a marketing coach for conscious businesses and experts. But not just any marketing coach... It's my mission to make marketing less coercive and more empathetic.
To do this, I'm creating new marketing concepts:
Make marketing less coercive and more purposeful.
I strive to stay true to and incorporate this purpose in everything I say, do, and act upon.
Enable professionals to thrive by pursuing their passions with clear and authentic engagement.
The guiding principles are:
Guide professionals dissatisfied with their current business or employment toward embracing their passions using ethical marketing. By focusing on non-coercive techniques, I enable marketing growth and foster communities that share a commitment to making a difference.
Want to create a memorable social profile that generates leads for your online business? This is the first step to your side hustler marketing journey. It's easy, and I will be here to help you!
