Who's Listening To Your Story? As business owners, it's easy to get the feeling that nobody is listening at times. It often feels like you're the only one who's just shutting his or her mouth and getting the job done. There's no time to stop and tell the story of how you got there, but maybe that's exactly what we should be doing. 

You've had success. Even if you're still in the initial phases of your company's overall history, you've still had some successes already. Those successes get lost in a sea of to-do lists and scheduled zoom calls as time goes on, but it's important to stop and think about all the "little things" that got you to where you are sitting right now. Tell the story. Share the lessons that you learned and inspire others. 

Mentorship doesn't have to be a formal arrangement. You can mentor those climbing the ladders of your specific industry without ever speaking directly to them. Your wisdom can be the light they are searching for in all that startup darkness. No business has ever "made it" without making some mistakes along the way. Think of it this way....parents do everything in their power to help their kids avoid the mistakes that they themselves made in their childhoods. Even if the parents succeed and steer their offspring well clear of every, single mistake that they ever made, their kids are still going to make their own mistakes. Share your wisdom. The world needs more of it right now. Seriously. 

No matter how successful you may be, there is always someone ahead of you. When those people are willing to share insight into the systems and thought processes that got them there.....LISTEN!

Podcasts, YouTube Channels, Blogs and Newsletters are great ways to find inspiration and we recommend you take advantage of all of them. The information you need to succeed is out there. You just have to connect yourself to it.


Trending Up Digital Services would like to hear your story.
 Are you willing to share it?

Win-Win Marketing has no better foundation than the sharing of wisdom. Our goal is to put together a library of successes and guidance. Real people from real companies sharing insight into the journey they've taken so far. 

Just sit down in front of a camera and record yourself. It doesn't need to be a Hollywood production with special effects and whatnot. It needs to be real. It needs to be your voice. Your story. Your passion. Film it with your phone....the more genuine, the better. Just let us know why your story deserves to be heard. How will it inspire others?

SOME TOPICS FOR CONSIDERATION

What do you consider to have been your first real success?

Was there a specific job or milestone that let you know you'd be okay?

What would you do different in the initial setup of your company if you could do it all over again?

At what stage did you start marketing?

What worked? What didn't?

What's the next phase for your company?

What single piece of advice would you give to anyone starting in your industry?
