Like many first-time business owners, I fell for all the marketing “tricks” that the conventional world teaches. Certain practices never felt right to me, but I figured that I had to play by the rules in order to become successful. It all felt icky to me, and it held me back from promoting my own work. Once I realized that I can do marketing in business in my way, in a way that feels ethical to me and aligns with my own values, everything changed. I realized I didn’t have to play someone else’s game—I could create my own. You attract the community and network that share the values you put out. I value transparency, creativity, and fun, and now I work with people who feel the same.
