About this episode

#831 You're not the one who should be promoting your products. Instead, how do you create something so good that your superfans can’t wait to tell others about it? I'm so excited for today's session! After 830 episodes, I finally welcome marketing legend Seth Godin to the show. Don't miss this chat because you'll hear all about his new book, This Is Strategy, and get tips to help you make better plans in business and life! We discuss the dangers of chasing vanity numbers and why you should likely target the smallest viable audience. We also dive into how to start selling books by the box instead of the copy and explore self-publishing versus going the traditional route. Listen in because this session will set you on the right track and help you uncover your strategy for success! Show notes and more at SmartPassiveIncome.com/session831.
