Everyone I meet is a potential collaborator. Every business has something that may well be relevant to me. Every possibility is a seed I’m planting in my imagination to potentially fruit. When you turn on entrepreneurial thinking, you’re not lacking opportunities. You’re just lacking capacity to do them. What say you?

Do you do affiliate marketing - if so, how do you find new affiliates? Do you ask your clients to refer others? Do they know what to say, and who’s a perfect match for you? I’d love to hear. 👇🏼

I'm thrilled to share that @Brook McCarthy, a longtime business buddy of mine, a veteran business coach and marketing mentor, is taking on Ownership of this group. Brook is 17 years in business and, with a background in Public Relations and digital marketing, she knows the value of collaboration over competition, how to get free publicity on mainstream (and niche) media, and has helped countless soloists and small biz owners to partner up, borrow each other's audiences, create referral engines, and do more with less. Brook has no immediate plans to change anything drastic here, and I promised her I'd stick around to ensure that you're comfortable. Please join me in helping Brook feel welcome, and post any questions or comments you have below. Brook tells me that she's very keen to hear from you, including any ideas you might have to make this space as inclusive, valuable, and useful as possible.

I'd be happy to do the same for you after my challenge and launch is over! I have an engaged mailing list of 2000 subscribers, a fb group and IG followers both totalling almost 3k! This is the following message! What happens to your business when you're on holiday or the kids are on school break? If your answer is 'crickets... silence... nothing,' my friend Mangla has a free challenge coming up! Visibility planning starts now!

#beaguest I’m interviewing entrepreneurs about the ups and down of “Entrepreneurs who work from home" on my you tube channel, (it’s not a podcast yet.) This is about how Entrepreneurs who have their own businesses handle distractions, time management, challenges, isolation, self-care and more. What’s in it for you? - Visibility: It’s a great way to increase awareness of your brand and attract potential customers or clients. - You position yourself as an expert. Sharing your expertise and insights can help establish you as a thought leader in your industry that leads to future collaborations. - You’ll have the opportunity to talk about your services which can drive traffic to your website, increase sales, and expand your customer base. You can check out some of the other interviews here. Check out @Ashleymikkelsen's interview here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JO3ff9lqnc If you’re interested, please message me here or at my email at galebates@gmail.com with the subject line ENTREPRENEUR.
