Kathy Oneto - Leaving Corporate, Part 5: Getting Your New Business Going

Kathy and I share how we each started our businesses and announced it to our networks. We also discuss visibility as one of the critical aspects of a successful launch.

And finally, to wrap up this final episode of the “Leaving Corporate” series, we discuss some of the best marketing and branding advice we have to offer from our personal experience in the trenches of solopreneurship to those of you who are considering the “big leap”.

We discuss:

How I announced my new brand and business to the world.
How optimizing your social media can be a big help in making your brand visible.
How making a transition can be a perfect reason to reach out to people.
How to establish your brand voice.
How to overcome overthinking when publishing content.
How guest posts or leveraging the content of others can help with your visibility.
How to market yourself.
How joining communities are essential to gathering and growing your network connections.
How to overcome “shiny object syndrome”.
How to get your initial income flowing.
