SHOW NOTES

Welcome to 'From Zero to Marketing Hero: My 365-Day Challenge' — In today's episode, I explore the feeling of overwhelm and stress as I navigate through creating a marketing plan and figuring out my next steps. This solo show captures my raw and honest reflections on what it's like to tackle these challenges head-on.

In This Episode, I Discuss:

Feeling overwhelmed: I share my experience of diving into marketing research, taking short courses, and trying to create a monthly marketing plan. The overload of information and pressure to figure out the best approach has led to feelings of stress and confusion.

Permission to Be Imperfect: I talk about giving myself permission to not have a perfect plan, and the importance of starting with a ”grade one” marketing plan for May. This approach allows me to focus on taking action without getting bogged down by overthinking.

Coping with Distractions: I discuss the challenges of dealing with distractions and rabbit holes when exploring new marketing strategies. The constant bombardment of advice, offers, and conflicting information can easily lead to overwhelm and loss of focus.

Staying on Track: I outline my strategies for regaining focus and resisting distractions, emphasising the need to keep things simple and focus on a few key areas that will move the needle forward.
