Have you ever felt that gnawing discomfort when you're trying to market your own work?
You're not alone. Drawing from George Orwell's disdain for advertising, this episode of "The Right Questions" tackles why marketing can feel so daunting and how we can overcome that fear. Through personal anecdotes and the journey with my book "Feck Perfuction," you'll learn how consistent messaging plays a crucial role in making your work both visible and memorable. I promise you'll walk away with practical tips and tools to ease those marketing jitters and confidently share your passion with the world.
Struggling with self-doubt in self-promotion? This episode is your guide to overcoming those challenges. We'll explore real-life stories of individuals, including myself, who have battled with the discomfort of selling. Hear how a socially awkward illustrator found success through sheer consistency and persistence, and discover the importance of focusing on supportive voices. By creating quality content and over-delivering, you too can build a loyal audience that appreciates your creative efforts, even in the face of negative feedback or haters.
Ready to embrace the fun and imperfection in marketing? This episode compares marketing to stepping up to the plate in baseball – it's all about starting, practicing confidence, and shutting down that inner critic. By making marketing enjoyable and authentic, you'll connect more deeply with your audience and see your creative endeavors flourish. Plus, your participation shapes the podcast, so don't hesitate to share your thoughts and questions. Let's embark on this journey together to get paid for doing what we love while staying sane and connected.
