How to share more of your personality in emails and blog posts
Episode notes
There's something about social media that helps us relax a little. But blog posts and emails? It just starts feeling like you need to be a bit more 'professional'. Well, I don't think marketing needs to feel like that, so I'm sharing some simple techniques and tips to help you share more personality in your content.
The goal? To help you feel like your blog posts and emails reflect your unique brand voice, values and personality. Hopefully, that makes it feel easier to create *and* helps nurture connections with dream clients.
