In this episode, Jordan and Debbie discuss:
-
The power of relationships in business
-
Promoting yourself in an authentic way
-
Getting over the discomfort of self-promotion
-
Success in entrepreneurship
Key Takeaways:
-
It’s necessary to treat other people with respect, but it’s equally as necessary to be truthful and speak your mind. Relationships are very powerful in business but that doesn’t mean you have to be worried about getting everybody to like you.
-
Promote yourself in an authentic and loving way, showing people that you are eager to give value to them through your expertise. There is an arrogant and tiresome way to do self-promotion, that is what you have to avoid. However, you can’t get by anywhere in life if you don’t talk about what you do and what you are good at.
-
There’s an underlying reason why one may find it difficult to promote themselves. In that case, one must rid themselves of negative preconceptions about marketing. Marketing is good, it serves not only you but for people who are looking for someone like you.
-
Success in entrepreneurship starts with overcoming mental barriers. You have to believe in yourself so that others can also believe in you and trust your product, skill, or expertise.
“You need to tell people what you do. Otherwise, you're not going to get the opportunities that you deserve” — Debbie Allen
