(50:40) Detail Recap:
- Do what’s right for your community. It’ll benefit everyone long term. Stay focused on who you are doing things for, truly.
- Be clear about your goals and stick with your instincts. Know that it’s going to take time to get there and no matter how much success you’ve had, you may need to do a little bit more to reach your goals.
- Offer challenges to your community to build a relationship. Hello, Groundhog challenge! Much like VEDA (Vlog Every Day in April/August) for Amy’s audience.
- Multitasking while consuming. Notice the times where you can be consuming content and still getting other things done (email & podcast listening).
