THE 21 HATS PODCAST: DASHBOARD
You Have to Make Your Own Weather: For business owners, the challenges of digital marketing seem to just get bigger. PIck a platform, any platform: the odds of success have gotten smaller and smaller. Even TikTok, where many small businesses have built followings, may not survive the month. So what’s a business owner to do? This week, Shawn Busse offers an alternative. First of all, Shawn does not believe that learning how to be discovered on AI bots is the answer. “I think that’s a fool’s errand,” he says. Instead of focusing on channels and tactics, he encourages owners to tell their story and build a brand. That’s not a simple task, but Shawn shares an impressive case study of an organization that, in his words, is “making its own weather.”
