Each week, Katy Doss, founder of Script Marketing, shares actionable, proven strategies for connecting with the wealthiest homeowner segment: affluent buyers. With 20+ years of marketing experience and deep expertise in the psychology of high-net-worth individuals, Katy and her team at Script—a full-service marketing firm specializing in luxury outdoor brands—unpack the tips, tactics, and tools that are working right now to grow visibility, credibility, and revenue.
