Episode notes
"Do you have too many ideas?"
I'm speaking of too many ideas in general and in business which makes it tough to pick something (or one thing or idea) and to get to the next step sometimes for me anyway. Lol!
What works for me to get my ideas out of my head and where I can reference them later on:
1. Cut the 'blue light' at least 1 hour before bedtime (close computer, phone and any other devices that give off that 'blue light' that make it hard for your brain to "power down" for the night.
2. Do a 'brain dump' of all of your thoughts (don't be fancy just get them out of your head!) Lol! I have different notebooks and journals and planners that work for me and when I use them efficiently, it helps me to get all of the thoughts running around in my head somewhere else so I can get to sleep! ;-)
3. Have or work on a 'Nighttime routine' (if you can) so you're "prepping" yourself to get to sleep as you go through the motions.
4. "Think it Out" aka Meditate. Give yourself time (when it's convenient for you) to just 'daydream' or 'brain storm' or as I like to call it, a 'brain dump'!
5. Another tip that I didn't mention that helps me is to do a voice memo of my ideas. Get them out of my head and where I can use them later for reference.

What is an Email Service Provider?
I've worked with Mailchimp and currently Convertkit - these are two examples of email service providers.
ConvertKit: The creator marketing platform
All-In-One Marketing Platform for Small Business | Mailchimp
What is a Lead Magnet?
In a nutshell...it's a freebie of value that you make to get your ICA's (Ideal Client Avatar) to sign up and to join your email list.

^^^^ After you know your Myers-Briggs 4 letters, or your type. This gives you tips on how you market in business according to your type (or what may make you feel more comfortable). There is a Free mini report and if you happen to purchase the 'full' report I will get a small commission at no charge to you. I personally love these reports, the full one is very extensive and it's helped me a lot!

After you get your four letters, below is a Free mini-report per Marketing Personalities by Brit Kolo.
Her tag lines are "Marketing That Feels Good" and "YOU are More Important than Your Ideal Client Avatar". It's based on the four letters of your personality type.

If you enjoy the Free mini-report and you'd like to purchase the Full Report ($39.00) - that is my affiliate link above and I'll receive a a small commission at no cost to you. I purchased the Full Report back in 2020 and it's very helpful!
It's a Workbook that you can type in and it helps with everything marketing (from social media to books to your work style, all according to your personality type!). Pretty cool, huh? ;-) It's great because I refer back to it when I need to which reminds me...I'll need to refer to it again soon! :)
