Today’s question is:
“I’m a relatively new copywriter. I’ve finally got myself a new shiny website and a portfolio to show off. But I’m not 100% what the next move is. I know I need to market my business, but I feel like I’m being torn in 100 different directions and feel like that’s stopping me from doing one well.
I feel I need to be doing social media, podcasts, guest blog articles, my own blog articles and showing up in so many other ways. To make things slightly more complicated, I’ve decided to niche my style of writing (websites, not industry). So my ideal client is all over the place, making it harder for me to narrow down where to hang out.
What should I be doing to market my business? Where should I be showing up? Help!”
Listen now:
You know that feeling of overwhelm when there’s so much to do? Should I be over here speaking on podcasts? Should I be writing blogs? All the social channels? Some of the social channels? What about niching? Too narrow, too broad?
All of the questions that you ask either when you’re starting out or when you’re making a change like launching a new website or changing a business model. Today’s question is all about how you deal with that overwhelm.
