Attracting people to your product or service HAS to happen or you won’t have

a business.

A Mom Entrepreneur???Attracting is the most difficult part. You can have a mediocre product and great marketing and your product/service will sell.If you have a great product/service and your marketing doesn’t hit the intended audience you won’t sell very many.If you don’t attract you can’t engage or covert.

A Mom Entrepreneur???You might be wondering why the title of the slides – A Mom Entrepreneur – is followed by question marks???

Page 10: Your Brand, Your Passion

www.amomentrepreneur.com

A Mom Entrepreneur???It’s because I had an epiphany a couple weeks ago on how to consolidate all do. To quit driving myself crazy and not being effective and follow my true passion.

A Mom Entrepreneur???To package all I do into one thing requires me to BRAND myself so people understand.

That leads me to the branding piece of today because without creating a good brand for myself I won’t be successful.

A Mom Entrepreneur???It’s not always easy to put into words your feelings. You have to have a consistent message and feelings can often change day to day.

A Mom Entrepreneur???Without a proper definition of your personal brand, you can’t possibly market yourself. Part of that process is also identifying how your brand can be unique from others in the same space, and how to build an experience, unlike all others around you.
