What if I told you that introducing humor to your online presence can attract more customers to your brand? Today, I’m joined by the hilarious founders of Take2Content, Shelby Dash and Kristina Clifford. Their business began as a passion project for making funny videos, but things really took off when brands started noticing their comedic talent and requesting custom content. After both our guests lost their day jobs during the pandemic, they seized the opportunity to pitch their unique, funny videos to companies, and it worked!

Holiday season is fast approaching and if you aren’t ready to take advantage of the holiday push or Black Friday, you’re leaving money on the table! Stores are starting their holiday pushes sooner than ever before and sales that used to last a couple of days are now lasting weeks or even months. This can be incredibly overwhelming for small business owners because it makes you worry about how much you have to do holiday promotion-wise. I have seen what happens when you ignore the holiday sales and it’s not good. I truly think it’s possible to strike a balance between family time and taking advantage of a time when people are spending more money. There are so many things that you could do and I would like to give you actionable tips today to help you during this time!

The feeling never gets old: it makes me so happy when our clients post in our community and tell me that they’ve launched their very first digital product! I want to make sure that you get the most out of all the time, work, and energy that you put into your offer.

Lead magnets have changed a lot in the past ten years and a huge part of that is because our entire creator economy has changed the online landscape. Ten years ago, knowledge databases for tech tools did not exist. YouTube was not this robust library and Google even left us with unanswered questions.

I want to talk about it because lead magnets are still an incredibly powerful, critical tool in your ability to grow and build your email list.
