🎧 Episode Summary:
In this episode, we’re talking about the two big approaches to marketing—transactional and relationship-driven—and how both can actually work together in your business. I’ll break down the pros and cons of each, why finding the right balance matters, and how to create a customer experience that keeps people coming back.
And let’s not forget the importance of stepping away from the grind. Taking a break isn’t just nice—it’s necessary. Burnout is real, and if you’re constantly chasing the next sale without thinking about long-term relationships, you’re setting yourself up for a never-ending hustle.
So grab your coffee, hit play, and let’s talk about how to market smarter, not harder.
