The traditional model of marketing and sales can feel awkward and inauthentic, especially for entrepreneurs who are introverted. The good news is that there is a different way to do business, sales, and marketing.
In this episode, I get to speak with the host of the The Gentle Business Revolution Podcast, Sarah Santacroce – who is changing the current marketing paradigm by creating a global movement that encourages people to bring more empathy and kindness to their business and marketing.
If you want to know more about how to market your business the gentle way and be your most authentic self, join me in this episode.
