LUYC 128: You are the Magic with Janelle Allen

Author: Janelle Allen: Learning Designer, Online Course Coach, and Entrepreneur May 20, 2020 Duration: 29:17
I shared something on Twitter recently: I don’t know who needs to hear this, but there is no magic genie that's going to help you start your thing. There is no moment when everything will feel easier. You just have to start. You are the magic. I believe this is so important for people who, for the longest time, have been wanting to start an online business or focus on something they love. I want to encourage you this week to start your thing. You and the actions you take are the magic. Stop waiting. In this week’s episode, I’m also sharing another growth strategy: GUEST POSTING. If you’re already running an online business, or you want to start building your audience online, this is an incredibly effective way to gain forward momentum. Tune in to hear me break down the key points of guest posting, the pros and cons, and DOs and DON’Ts you need to keep in mind. By the way, make sure you’re staying up to date with future episodes and getting growth strategies directly in your inbox. Sign up to be part of the family here. Episode Quotes "Everyone's roadmap is different... What works for someone else may not work for you." "The magic is not only you, but it's the action that you take." "You create your path, but you can only create it through action." "Guest posting is a flexible and effective strategy if you don’t have time to do podcast appearances."
