Stop Marketing, Start Helping! is a personal business manifesto.
It's also a call to arms for those who are in the business of helping others. Many people get caught up in the idea of "Marketing", moving further and further away from why they started doing what they're doing. It also moves them away from what's really important - and what actually works.
Instead of trying to convince others, I argue that by helping others you become someone who others know, like, trust and will work with.
It requires a leap of faith, but it has worked for my business and for many people who have worked with me.
I'd love to hear your views on this simple, helpful idea!
