Let’s be real: social media is packed right now with what I like to call “hype marketing.” You know the posts—“biggest launch in the history of network marketing,” “a compensation plan like nothing you’ve ever seen.” It’s constant. But here’s the truth: these tactics aren’t just overused; they’re actually driving people away and undermining your business’s credibility.

If you’ve been caught up in this approach—maybe because it’s what’s being taught or you’re following what everyone else is doing—I want you to know that it’s ok and you can start doing things differently.

In this episode, I share the four reasons why hype marketing is hurting your business and I reveal what you can do to start building a lasting business with heart over hype!
