Today, I spent a lot of my day working on my business. In fact, I’ve spent a lot of the past few weeks working on my business. I don’t spend all that much time working in my business these days. That’s partly because many of the responsibilities I used to have while running my own […]
Thoughts About Audiences – From Starting Out Through Scaling | Day 4
I’ve been thinking about audiences. On Day 2, I made a video about the reasons I love my wife. Some marketers might find that strange. Marketers are a funny bunch. Some are awesome.
