Speaker:

You know,

Speaker:

I've talked to a lot of you one on one and

Speaker:

I know that doing all the things we have to do

Speaker:

in our creative business is a big contributor to overwhelm.

Speaker:

And then overwhelm affects everything.

Speaker:

How you show up each day,

Speaker:

how you talk with customers and sadly how you feel about

Speaker:

your business.

Speaker:

Well, what if I told you that you don't need to

Speaker:

do all these things specifically when it comes to marketing?

Speaker:

It's true.

Speaker:

You really only need to do the things that feel right

Speaker:

for you.

Speaker:

So you might be saying,

Speaker:

well, how do I find that out?

Speaker:

How do I know what's right for me?

Speaker:

Speaker:

show Today.

Speaker:

I have the pleasure and cannot wait to introduce you to

strategy based on your Myers Briggs personality type.

We're going to get into that,

Speaker:

but just understand that it's your own unique personality type.

Speaker:

Welcome to the gift biz unwrapped podcast.

Speaker:

Brett, Thank you so much for having me.

Speaker:

I am thrilled that you are here and I'd like to

Speaker:

dive right in to having you introduce yourself in a fun,

Speaker:

creative way.

Speaker:

And that is by having you describe yourself as a motivational

Speaker:

candle. So if you were to let us know what color

Speaker:

and a quote or some type of slogan that really resonates

Speaker:

with you,

Speaker:

what would your motivational candle look like?

Speaker:

Okay, so this is by far the coolest podcast interview question

Speaker:

I've ever been asked.

Speaker:

So let's just get that out of the way.

Speaker:

This is so cool.

Speaker:

Okay, so my candle would be white.

Speaker:

I love white and minimalistic colors and monochromatic things.

Speaker:

I know that that might be boring to some people,

Speaker:

but it just feels clean and just relaxed to me.

Speaker:

So my candle would be white.

Speaker:

It would smell like a fresh mountain air near a Lake

Speaker:

if that's a smell.

Speaker:

I don't have a name for that,

Speaker:

but that would be my absolute favorites now.

Speaker:

And the quote on it seems like my life mantra,

Speaker:

it's like a line of phrase that just has come up

Speaker:

again and again in my entire life and that is all

Speaker:

as well.

Speaker:

So that's my candle.

Speaker:

Oh, I love it.

Speaker:

It's so pure and simple and clean.

Speaker:

Yeah. And do you go to all as well when you

Speaker:

get into those inevitable challenge times where like everything seems to

Speaker:

be disrupting around you and then you just go,

Speaker:

Nope, all is well,

Speaker:

You know,

Speaker:

I feel like all as well is just stamped across my

Speaker:

soul. It's just,

Speaker:

it comes in in every moment and for sure,

Speaker:

definitely in the moments where I feel frazzled and just kind

Speaker:

of ungrounded.

Speaker:

If I can quiet my mind enough and dip down into,

Speaker:

okay, wait,

Speaker:

what's going on here?

Speaker:

The line is always all as well.

Speaker:

And I find that I say it out loud a lot.

Speaker:

So when other entrepreneurs come my way and they're in that

Speaker:

frazzled state,

Speaker:

I find myself going back to that phrase all as well.

Speaker:

Relax all as well.

Speaker:

We're going to get through this.

Speaker:

It's okay.

Speaker:

So, yeah,

Speaker:

it's definitely a phrase that probably people around me are sick

Speaker:

of hearing.

Speaker:

But it's so true.

Speaker:

I mean,

Speaker:

I'm sick of hearing it sometimes too when I'm in that

Speaker:

state of like,

Speaker:

Oh, there's so much going on,

Speaker:

but it's so true and it's so good and it grounds

Speaker:

me so quickly and they're just three simple Words that can

Speaker:

be so powerful.

Speaker:

So kind of like the Nike slogan,

Speaker:

just do it similar type things,

Speaker:

simple words.

Speaker:

But when you put them together and add meaning behind them,

Speaker:

they really can help you and ground you as you were

Speaker:

saying. All right,

Speaker:

well let's go back a little bit.

Speaker:

Share with us how you've gotten to the point that you're

Speaker:

at today.

Speaker:

What you're doing is so cool.

Speaker:

I'm so excited to dive in,

Speaker:

but just give us a little bit of the backstory.

Speaker:

Yeah, sure.

Speaker:

So for context today I own marketing person.

Speaker:

Reality is,

Speaker:

and it's a website that you can go to to find

Speaker:

what your best marketing strategy is based on your Myers Briggs

Speaker:

personality type.

Speaker:

And I did not start there.

Speaker:

So to rewind the tapes a little bit,

Speaker:

I got a degree from Penn state about,

Speaker:

I don't know how many years ago,

Speaker:

just a few.

Speaker:

I got a degree from Penn state.

Speaker:

Yeah, just a view in kinesiology,

Speaker:

which has nothing to do with marketing or owning your own

Speaker:

business. Kinesiology is the study of human movement,

Speaker:

so I was a science nerd and I really dug that

Speaker:

for awhile.

Speaker:

I thought I wanted to be a wellness coach,

Speaker:

a health coach,

Speaker:

and so I got that degree.

Speaker:

I got into a really great company with a full time

Speaker:

job as a wellness coach.

Speaker:

Moved my way up pretty quickly in that company.

Speaker:

I was a real go getter in that environment and I

Speaker:

found myself in the role of client relations director and I

Speaker:

really was not great at that.

Speaker:

I was not a good fit for that position.

Speaker:

The position wasn't a good fit for me and in my

Speaker:

procrastination time in that role,

Speaker:

I found myself in really,

Speaker:

really great deep discussions about marketing and sales because if you're

Speaker:

taking care of your clients,

Speaker:

you know you're also thinking about,

Speaker:

well, why did they come here?

Speaker:

Why are they leaving?

Speaker:

And you start looking at the sales and marketing department of

Speaker:

the company.

Speaker:

Really, really great conversations there.

Speaker:

I started to get really fascinated with the world of marketing

Speaker:

and sales.

Speaker:

Started to get really obsessed,

Speaker:

started listening to all these podcasts.

Speaker:

This was back when podcasts weren't even really a thing.

Speaker:

Like I would say that I listen to podcasts and people

Speaker:

would be like,

Speaker:

what's that?

Speaker:

What are you doing?

Speaker:

And these are people my age.

Speaker:

These weren't just like my mom.

Speaker:

My mom still doesn't really understand what the podcast is,

Speaker:

but that's okay.

Speaker:

I just got so addicted to them so fast and also

Speaker:

reading all the blogs,

Speaker:

just getting completely obsessed with it.

Speaker:

And then I moved over after a quick conversation with my

Speaker:

boss in which I said,

Speaker:

Hey, if you don't let me move into the marketing department,

Speaker:

I'm going to go do marketing for somebody else.

Speaker:

So can I do marketing for this company?

Speaker:

And he graciously said,

Speaker:

yeah, let's see how you do over there.

Speaker:

Cause he knew I was kind of sucking over in the

Speaker:

client relations department.

Speaker:

So I moved over to the marketing department,

Speaker:

turned that whole thing around,

Speaker:

did a really great job over there.

Speaker:

And within about a year and a half,

Speaker:

almost two years,

Speaker:

I decided,

Speaker:

you know what,

Speaker:

I love this stuff and if I can do it for

Speaker:

this one company,

Speaker:

I can probably do it for other companies.

Speaker:

So I decided one day that I was going to quit

Speaker:

my job and start a marketing agency.

Speaker:

The next Monday I put in my notice at my job

Speaker:

and I left four weeks later and I started a marketing

Speaker:

agency. And quickly I realized,

Speaker:

Oh my goodness,

Speaker:

I just went from having one boss to seven bosses,

Speaker:

not the most fun thing ever.

Speaker:

And so then I warped my marketing agency company into a

Speaker:

marketing coaching company where I wasn't necessarily in there doing the

Speaker:

marketing for people.

Speaker:

I was coaching them through it,

Speaker:

typically female entrepreneurs with a coaching business of their own or

Speaker:

some sort of digital product type of business.

Speaker:

I worked with a lot of those types of entrepreneurs and

Speaker:

through that experience with working with all these people being in

Speaker:

the marketing,

Speaker:

especially the online marketing space for awhile,

Speaker:

I started noticing these trends between different clients that I had.

Speaker:

I had always asked them their Myers Briggs personality type.

Speaker:

As soon as they became my client,

Speaker:

because I had always,

Speaker:

even from back in high school,

Speaker:

I always thought that personality assessments were so helpful in understanding

Speaker:

a person and so then I could coach them better and

Speaker:

work with them better,

Speaker:

so I would always ask and then working with all these

Speaker:

different clients,

Speaker:

I started recognizing that,

Speaker:

wait a second,

Speaker:

when I give this piece of advice to this client,

Speaker:

she's a,

Speaker:

for instance,

Speaker:

in NFP,

Speaker:

she takes that advice and just totally runs with it.

Speaker:

She loves that advice.

Speaker:

She just goes with it.

Speaker:

It feels so great to her and it feels really good

Speaker:

and it works.

Speaker:

And then when I take that same piece of advice and

Speaker:

I give it to this client who is a,

Speaker:

let's say an ISF Jay,

Speaker:

completely different personality type,

Speaker:

she wrinkles her nose and gets all squeamish and she doesn't

Speaker:

know what to do with this.

Speaker:

Like this is not feel good to her.

Speaker:

And so I started connecting those dots over time.

Speaker:

And through those dots being connected,

Speaker:

I decided that,

Speaker:

okay, this personality thing has a big,

Speaker:

big impact on how someone works with me in my coaching.

Speaker:

So I started incorporating into my coaching more and then I

Speaker:

realized, wait a second,

Speaker:

this is a whole framework and this needs to be out

Speaker:

to not just my coaching clients,

Speaker:

the people I'm working with one-on-one.

Speaker:

But this needs to be available for everyone because I'm starting

Speaker:

to connect these dots and allowing my one on one coaching

Speaker:

clients to feel good in their marketing.

Speaker:

And if it's a true framework,

Speaker:

this needs to be available to everyone.

Speaker:

And that is when marketing personalities.com

Speaker:

was born.

Speaker:

So now you don't have to work with me one-on-one.

Speaker:

You can just go to the website and find out what

Speaker:

marketing strategy is going to feel good for you.

Speaker:

And you can just let go of the other things that

Speaker:

feel fake and salesy.

Speaker:

Because at the end of the day,

Speaker:

my company,

Speaker:

and really my mission here with this entire venture is to

Speaker:

show you that you shouldn't have to feel fake and salesy

Speaker:

to grow your business.

Speaker:

Yes, you don't have to,

Speaker:

you can actually feel good.

Speaker:

So that is what brought me to marketing personalities and what

Speaker:

I'm doing right now.

Speaker:

It is brilliant because It makes so much sense that just

Speaker:

because let's use the big one that everyone talks about right

Speaker:

now live,

Speaker:

right? Whether it's Facebook,

Speaker:

live, Instagram,

Speaker:

live stories,

Speaker:

all of that.

Speaker:

The big message that always comes out is,

Speaker:

Oh, you have to be doing it.

Speaker:

It's the biggest thing.

Speaker:

It's going to get you great visibility.

Speaker:

And while that might be,

Speaker:

so not everyone feels comfortable with doing that.

Speaker:

So what happens?

Speaker:

They don't look authentic.

Speaker:

Another big keyword that people are saying right now,

Speaker:

right? But it doesn't come across properly if you're not doing

Speaker:

something that's a fit with your personality.

Speaker:

So again,

Speaker:

I'm going to use the word brilliant because I think this

Speaker:

can be a game changer for people and I do want

Speaker:

to share gift biz listeners.

Speaker:

I was just at a mastermind with Brit.

Speaker:

We all had our Myers Briggs personality types already and we'll

Speaker:

get into that Britt in a second.

Speaker:

But we had those types,

Speaker:

but then we were able to match up with what Britt's

Speaker:

recommendations are for how to market that fits and is most

Speaker:

comfortable for us.

Speaker:

And it was a little freaky.

Speaker:

Everyone remember that Facebook thread Brit,

Speaker:

everyone's like,

Speaker:

Oh my gosh,

Speaker:

like I use standing right next to me seeing the types

Speaker:

of things I'm doing or are you inside me knowing what's

Speaker:

comfortable and what's not.

Speaker:

It was uncanny how right on all of this information was,

Speaker:

and we talked about using me as an example.

Speaker:

I don't know if that's what our plan is.

Speaker:

So I'm not going to share what my experience has been

Speaker:

yet because I want all the listeners to come along with

Speaker:

us and really understand what this is all about.

Speaker:

But it's real.

Speaker:

I mean,

Speaker:

I love,

Speaker:

love what you put together and I'm glad we're catching you

Speaker:

at this point in your journey because I think this is

Speaker:

going to explode.

Speaker:

I'm so excited to see what happens with all of this.

Speaker:

Oh, thank you.

Speaker:

Let's start out and talk about Myers-Briggs and what that means

Speaker:

and how somebody could get their hands on what their personality

Speaker:

type is.

Speaker:

We've already been saying all these crazy letters and some people

Speaker:

might be going,

Speaker:

well, what is that?

Speaker:

So what's Myers-Briggs?

Speaker:

Okay, so Myers-Briggs is pretty much one of the most gold

Speaker:

standard personality assessments out there.

Speaker:

It's been around for a very long time since about the

Speaker:

1920s so almost a century.

Speaker:

And it's the personality assessment that a lot of organizations feed

Speaker:

you to,

Speaker:

to learn more about yourself.

Speaker:

And so you can find out what your Myers Briggs personality

Speaker:

type is by going to my favorite asset.

Speaker:

I mean there are a few assessments out there.

Speaker:

The most direct way to get your Myers-Briggs personality type is

Speaker:

to go to Meyers-Briggs dot com or Google Myers-Briggs and we

Speaker:

can link to that of course and take that test.

Speaker:

But then my favorite one actually is not the Myers-Briggs one,

Speaker:

it's over on 16 personalities.com

Speaker:

it's an assessment that gives you your Myers Briggs personality type,

Speaker:

but it also gives you so much more information in a

Speaker:

way that I think most of the population is ready consume

Speaker:

it. It just makes it more fun.

Speaker:

The language is so approachable.

Speaker:

It makes sense.

Speaker:

So I definitely recommend going to 16 personalities.com

Speaker:

Okay. Is that the number six or is it 16 spelled

Speaker:

out? It's the number one six personalities.com

Speaker:

Okay. And is there a cost to any of this?

Speaker:

No. If you go to 16 personalities.com

Speaker:

it's a totally free assessment.

Speaker:

Beautiful. Okay.

Speaker:

And so then what do you get when you go through

Speaker:

the assessment?

Speaker:

And that's,

Speaker:

it's just a list of questions you guys.

Speaker:

It's nothing crazy.

Speaker:

It's just a list of questions and I think you're supposed

Speaker:

to just answer it with your immediate reaction.

Speaker:

You're not supposed to overthink the questions,

Speaker:

right, Brit?

Speaker:

Correct. And I want to be very clear.

Speaker:

I don't own 16 personalities.

Speaker:

This is a different organization.

Speaker:

This is just my favorite assessment to go find your Myers

Speaker:

Briggs personality type if you've never known it or maybe it's

Speaker:

been a super long time since you've taken a personality assessment.

Speaker:

That's my favorite one to send people to because it's so

Speaker:

approachable and it's just incredible how they give you your results.

Speaker:

They're just mindblowing and as you're taking the assessment,

Speaker:

my best advice is to do it at your best time

Speaker:

of day.

Speaker:

So if your worst time of day is at the end

Speaker:

of your day,

Speaker:

you're totally wiped out.

Speaker:

Probably not a great place to take a personality assessment.

Speaker:

So just find your best time of day.

Speaker:

Maybe it's first thing in the morning,

Speaker:

maybe it is later in the evening when you've relaxed and

Speaker:

you wind down whatever.

Speaker:

Take it during your best time of day and then as

Speaker:

you go through the questions,

Speaker:

yes, I do advise to just go with your first gut

Speaker:

reaction to the questions and answer them as honestly as you

Speaker:

possibly can.

Speaker:

Try not to answer them in a way that you think

Speaker:

you should answer them,

Speaker:

but in a way that you yourself actually believe in.

Speaker:

That's key.

Speaker:

Yeah. Because if you're not being your true self,

Speaker:

then your results are skewed and this is not going to

Speaker:

lead you to anything that's really going to help.

Speaker:

Exactly. So if someone,

Speaker:

you know,

Speaker:

lots of big businesses will also do these personality assessments.

Speaker:

If someone did a Myers Briggs 10 years ago or so,

Speaker:

would you suggest they redo it?

Speaker:

I do suggest redoing it.

Speaker:

There are theories out there that your personality type is kind

Speaker:

of locked into you by the time you're five years old

Speaker:

or eight years old or whatever and it doesn't change.

Speaker:

But in my experience,

Speaker:

and I've talked to so many people at this point,

Speaker:

sometimes you take a personality assessment right after you've been hired

Speaker:

by someone.

Speaker:

This is so common.

Speaker:

I hear this all the time,

Speaker:

and you consciously or unconsciously you answer the questions in the

Speaker:

way that you think your new employer would want you to

Speaker:

answer them.

Speaker:

And therefore you don't really get a true read on what

Speaker:

your actual personality type is.

Speaker:

And even if it's been a long,

Speaker:

long time since you've taken it,

Speaker:

take it again.

Speaker:

Just go ahead and maybe you come out as the exact

Speaker:

same personality type,

Speaker:

which just further validates that you were right on from before

Speaker:

and maybe you have a new perspective and that's the one

Speaker:

that you want to go forth with into the future.

Speaker:

So yeah,

Speaker:

it doesn't hurt to just take the free assessment and see.

Speaker:

Okay, perfect.

Speaker:

And so then when you're done,

Speaker:

you get four letters that define your personality.

Speaker:

So let's talk a little bit about what that's all about.

Speaker:

And there's,

Speaker:

I think two options for each letter,

Speaker:

right? Yeah.

Speaker:

And I go into much greater detail about these four aspects

Speaker:

on my podcast and on my website.

Speaker:

I'll give you a quick overview.

Speaker:

So there are four letters.

Speaker:

The first letter is either an I or an E standing

Speaker:

for either introverted or extroverted.

Speaker:

Lots of funny things that people believe and have misconceptions of

Speaker:

about the introversion extroversion scale.

Speaker:

That could be a whole other separate podcast episode,

Speaker:

but regardless of what you think you are,

Speaker:

it's interesting.

Speaker:

It really,

Speaker:

it really depends on where you gain energy from.

Speaker:

And studies now are saying that vast majority of the population

Speaker:

sits somewhere in the middle.

Speaker:

You might have heard the term ambivert before and that's someone

Speaker:

who kind of sits in the middle between introversion and extroversion.

Speaker:

So again,

Speaker:

lots of weird things going on between those two letters,

Speaker:

but you won't know until you take the assessment which one

Speaker:

you actually are.

Speaker:

So that's the first letter.

Speaker:

The second letter is either an S or an N.

Speaker:

S stands for observant and N stands for intuitive,

Speaker:

meaning you are more tuned in to get your information.

Speaker:

If you're observant,

Speaker:

you tend to prefer to take in information from external sources,

Speaker:

your surroundings,

Speaker:

and if you're more intuitive,

Speaker:

you tend to prefer to look inward for cues to your

Speaker:

intuition, your gut reactions to things.

Speaker:

Third letter is either a T or an F T standing

Speaker:

for thinking and F standing for feeling.

Speaker:

This is where you tend to make your decisions from.

Speaker:

If you're a T you make it more from a logical

Speaker:

standpoint, things that you can think through with your mind and

Speaker:

if you're an F you tend to make decisions from your

Speaker:

feelings, maybe not logical but true to you feelings.

Speaker:

And then finally the fourth letter is either a J or

Speaker:

a P.

Speaker:

J stands for judging,

Speaker:

P stands for perceiving.

Speaker:

If you are a J you tend to be pretty self

Speaker:

assured. You can make a decision pretty quickly because you have

Speaker:

the ability to see things in more of a black and

Speaker:

white aspect.

Speaker:

And let's be very clear,

Speaker:

Jay does not mean judgemental,

Speaker:

okay? It just means judging.

Speaker:

You have a clear sense of which way you want to

Speaker:

go on any given day.

Speaker:

And then if you are a P,

Speaker:

you are a perceiver and that's someone who tends to be

Speaker:

a little bit more open and less able to see things

Speaker:

in black and white and therefore a little slower to make

Speaker:

decisions. Usually.

Speaker:

And as any of the letters,

Speaker:

this applies to all of the letters,

Speaker:

all of the aspects of your personality type.

Speaker:

There is no one right or wrong.

Speaker:

There's just a right for you,

Speaker:

whatever you prefer.

Speaker:

So you are who you are and that's totally enough.

Speaker:

So regardless of what you come up as,

Speaker:

that's you and that is beautiful and we can definitely use

Speaker:

that to our advantage in our marketing and our business to

Speaker:

grow and not feel like we're being anybody other than ourselves.

Speaker:

Perfect. I agree.

Speaker:

And I was going to make that comment if you didn't

Speaker:

that there is no one right answer.

Speaker:

There is no preferred combination or anything.

Speaker:

And the great thing about this versus taking this with a

Speaker:

past employer is you're the only one who sees the results

Speaker:

unless you care to share them with somebody.

Speaker:

So it's a great way just to get more perspective,

Speaker:

more knowledge and understanding of who you are and what drives

Speaker:

you. And so then the fascinating thing here is then Brit,

Speaker:

you take whatever the four letters are and then you overlay

Speaker:

that into,

Speaker:

okay, what does that mean for your business?

Speaker:

And how you could most naturally market your business based on

Speaker:

the type of person that you are,

Speaker:

right? Correct.

Speaker:

Yeah. That's where it goes.

Speaker:

When you get your Myers Briggs personality type,

Speaker:

you get results that are descriptive so they're describing you and

Speaker:

then I've taken that and I've made a prescriptive model.

Speaker:

I'm taking your personality type and I'm per scribing a marketing

Speaker:

strategy that I know is going to feel really good for

Speaker:

you, so it takes it from this theoretical like,

Speaker:

yeah, this is who you are to,

Speaker:

Hey, if that's who you are,

Speaker:

this is what you can do,

Speaker:

like let's skip all the fake and salesy stuff and trying

Speaker:

everything under the sun and the proverbial throwing spaghetti at the

Speaker:

wall and let's just go straight for what's going to feel

Speaker:

good because when you feel good,

Speaker:

your audience is going to pick up on that feel good

Speaker:

energy. They're going to be attracted to that.

Speaker:

If you show up fake and salesy and kind of like

Speaker:

not sure of yourself,

Speaker:

guess what?

Speaker:

Your audience is going to pick up on that too and

Speaker:

they're going to be like,

Speaker:

ah, I don't know if I trust this,

Speaker:

I'm going to just find somebody else to work with.

Speaker:

But when you're feeling good and confident in how you're showing

Speaker:

up and what you're showing up for based on your natural

Speaker:

personality type,

Speaker:

your audience is like,

Speaker:

Ooh, I want some of that.

Speaker:

She's feeling good.

Speaker:

I can tell this is definitely aligned with who she is

Speaker:

and I want more of it and so that's essentially why

Speaker:

we do it And it also then overflows into your product

Speaker:

too because if you're feeling good and comfortable and confident,

Speaker:

then people are going to just feel better about the quality

Speaker:

that you present overall even into a tangible product.

Speaker:

Wouldn't you agree,

Speaker:

Brit? Oh absolutely.

Speaker:

Yeah. It's fun to get into these conversations with business owners

Speaker:

because we start the conversation by seeing how their personality type

Speaker:

can inform their marketing strategy and then the more self aware

Speaker:

they become about their personality type,

Speaker:

they start to realize that that can also indicate what kind

Speaker:

business model they take on and what they offer to their

Speaker:

clients and customers.

Speaker:

And that not only applies to service based business owners but

Speaker:

also product based too.

Speaker:

So yeah,

Speaker:

absolutely. When we returned to the conversation,

Speaker:

I want to share with you a real life example of

Speaker:

how you can use marketing personalities and understand what you should

Speaker:

and shouldn't do,

Speaker:

Be doing with your business.

Speaker:

But first I want to make sure you're familiar with my

Speaker:

free Facebook group called gift biz breeze.

Speaker:

It's a place where we all gather and our community to

Speaker:

support each other.

Speaker:

I've got a really fun post in there.

Speaker:

That's my favorite of the week I have to say where

Speaker:

I invite all of you to share what you're doing,

Speaker:

to show pictures of your product,

Speaker:

to show what you're working on for the week,

Speaker:

to get reaction from other people.

Speaker:

And just for fun because we all get to see the

Speaker:

wonderful products that everybody in the community is making.

Speaker:

My favorite posts every single week without doubt.

Speaker:

Wait, what aren't you part of the group already?

Speaker:

If not,

Speaker:

make sure to jump over to Facebook and search for the

Speaker:

group gift biz breeze.

Speaker:

Don't delay.

Speaker:

Come join us in gift biz breeze today.

Speaker:

Okay, so I'd like to bring the listener and continue them

Speaker:

on the journey we talked about using me as an example,

Speaker:

so I'm willing to just like share with the world what

Speaker:

I'm all about.

Speaker:

Just by way of example,

Speaker:

obviously many of you would be different than I am,

Speaker:

but you're up for that Brit to talk about For me

Speaker:

and what my results were and I think people who have

Speaker:

been following me for a while are going to see how

Speaker:

in line I am not like what this did for me,

Speaker:

Brett, when I got my results is like,

Speaker:

Oh my gosh,

Speaker:

what I'm doing is already the right fit for what your

Speaker:

results were showing me.

Speaker:

So that made me just feel more confident and more comfortable

Speaker:

in what I'm doing out there with potentially a little tweak.

Speaker:

But let's talk about this a little bit.

Speaker:

I am an E N F,

Speaker:

J. Awesome.

Speaker:

So let's talk about what that means.

Speaker:

So I'm you go with the numbers with the letters,

Speaker:

I mean,

Speaker:

Yeah, I'll just give you a rundown and I know this

Speaker:

personality type really,

Speaker:

really well because I am also an ENF J yay.

Speaker:

That might skew some things a little bit.

Speaker:

If you're interested to hear me speak about a personality type

Speaker:

that is not mine.

Speaker:

I talk about that a lot in my own podcasts.

Speaker:

But this will be fun because we'll just get to jam

Speaker:

about the things that feel really good to both of us.

Speaker:

And remember as we go through this dear list center here,

Speaker:

this is not the only way to do it.

Speaker:

That's why there are 16 different personality types and 16 different

Speaker:

suggestions that I give throughout my work.

Speaker:

And then even within just one personality type,

Speaker:

there are how many billion people on the planet and every

Speaker:

single person is different from one another.

Speaker:

So while Sue and I are both ENF Jays,

Speaker:

we will still do things differently,

Speaker:

right? Because we're different humans with different human experiences.

Speaker:

So in ENF J so let me break it down for

Speaker:

you real quick.

Speaker:

Those letters,

Speaker:

E stands for extroverted,

Speaker:

N stands for intuitive.

Speaker:

F stands for feeling.

Speaker:

J stands for judging,

Speaker:

But not judgemental.

Speaker:

You shared,

Speaker:

Right, but not judgemental.

Speaker:

Very different.

Speaker:

Very different word because I was worried about that when I

Speaker:

got that J at first too.

Speaker:

I was like,

Speaker:

Oh no.

Speaker:

Yeah, it's so funny how that can have a negative connotation,

Speaker:

but just like we said,

Speaker:

there's no right or wrong.

Speaker:

And J isn't better than P P isn't better than J.

Speaker:

So as an ENF Jay,

Speaker:

we know that you are part of the diplomat tribe.

Speaker:

So there are 16 personality types,

Speaker:

and there are four tribes within those types of four different

Speaker:

types in each tribe.

Speaker:

So the diplomat tribe are those who have N an F

Speaker:

in their personality type,

Speaker:

intuitive feelers.

Speaker:

And what we know about intuitive feelers is they are deep.

Speaker:

They love to go deep.

Speaker:

There's always something deeper to dig into for them.

Speaker:

They are intuitively tuned,

Speaker:

so looking at cues from inside and their feelings.

Speaker:

And so when that is the case,

Speaker:

we've got lots of deep stuff going on all the time,

Speaker:

all the time.

Speaker:

We are also very much mission driven.

Speaker:

So if we can identify why we're doing something and we

Speaker:

intuitively know that we believe in that,

Speaker:

why we'll do it,

Speaker:

but without a clear why we are not in,

Speaker:

we're like,

Speaker:

Whoa, Whoa,

Speaker:

Whoa, pump the brakes.

Speaker:

Why are we doing this again?

Speaker:

I cannot tell you how many times I asked that question

Speaker:

in my corporate job like,

Speaker:

Whoa, wait a second.

Speaker:

But why can you tell me why?

Speaker:

Because a lot of times for intuitive feelers,

Speaker:

especially if they're larger corporation and they're not autonomous,

Speaker:

they're not making all the decisions for themselves.

Speaker:

It can get really muddy like,

Speaker:

but why in the world are we doing it this way?

Speaker:

I have found that can lead a lot of intuitive feelers

Speaker:

to start their own thing because they can't find the why.

Speaker:

It's difficult to Does that follow through in all things?

Speaker:

Because I'll even see just with projects like when I've been

Speaker:

on boards or things like that and a project comes up,

Speaker:

it's like what's the end result?

Speaker:

Why are we even doing this?

Speaker:

But I think of it more as a productivity issue.

Speaker:

Like we're spending so much time on this is what we're

Speaker:

trying to get to worth that much time investment.

Speaker:

Yeah. Well anything regarding your personality type affects everything in your

Speaker:

life. So it's not just,

Speaker:

I mean I give a lot of business related and career

Speaker:

related examples cause that's the space I'm in.

Speaker:

But this also relates to relationships,

Speaker:

life outside of business,

Speaker:

everything. Because this is how you approach life as human.

Speaker:

Okay. That makes sense.

Speaker:

That's interesting.

Speaker:

So the concern of wasting time is something that I see

Speaker:

in intuitive feelers and specifically ENF Jays as well.

Speaker:

I have a couple of theories on why that is.

Speaker:

I think the biggest thing is that we often as intuitive

Speaker:

feelers, we don't go surface level.

Speaker:

We go deep and any kind of thing that's gonna stay

Speaker:

surface level doesn't feel like it's worth our time.

Speaker:

And because we like to go deep,

Speaker:

we need a lot of space and time to create things

Speaker:

and knowing that we have to be really careful to not

Speaker:

let surface level projects,

Speaker:

things without a Y creep in and cut away at our

Speaker:

time on the things that really matter to us.

Speaker:

So time comes into that thought of like,

Speaker:

okay, but why?

Speaker:

Why, right?

Speaker:

Because we definitely want to be spending our time wisely on

Speaker:

the things that do matter to us.

Speaker:

Right. As we look at specifically the ENF Jay best marketing

Speaker:

strategy, it relates to speaking with your audience.

Speaker:

So usually we see ENF J's hosting podcasts,

Speaker:

ding, ding,

Speaker:

ding. Here we are and creating really rich conversations.

Speaker:

We often do really well with a mic in front of

Speaker:

us. We often have quite a few things to say,

Speaker:

but not in a way that is commanding or dictatorship.

Speaker:

It's more in a way of,

Speaker:

Hey, I have figured this out.

Speaker:

I'm just a couple steps ahead of you and I really

Speaker:

want to help you out with this.

Speaker:

If you're willing to listen,

Speaker:

I could probably get you there a little faster because I've

Speaker:

gone ahead and I've figured something out for you,

Speaker:

so we very much take on a guide and a mentor

Speaker:

type of role for our people very naturally.

Speaker:

I mean,

Speaker:

it's not even something that we necessarily have to try it.

Speaker:

It just happens because that's how when we're in a healthy

Speaker:

EMFJ space,

Speaker:

that's just how we operate.

Speaker:

Often our customers,

Speaker:

our audiences,

Speaker:

our family members,

Speaker:

our friends,

Speaker:

they often come to us and ask for advice for some,

Speaker:

even if we're younger than the person,

Speaker:

people ask our advice because we just so naturally present ourselves

Speaker:

as that mentor,

Speaker:

as that guide,

Speaker:

as that wiser person.

Speaker:

I feel that so much and one thing since we were

Speaker:

going that direction.

Speaker:

One thing and possibly my biggest revelation from the information that

Speaker:

I got from you,

Speaker:

Brit, was,

Speaker:

yes, I like to speak in front of people.

Speaker:

I like to podcast.

Speaker:

I do Facebook lives,

Speaker:

all of that type of thing.

Speaker:

But the most interesting part of all of that is in

Speaker:

the documentation that you sent is for me,

Speaker:

I'd rather help someone help themselves than forever being relied on

Speaker:

being the fixer,

Speaker:

the one who answers all their questions.

Speaker:

I would rather empower another person to be able to take

Speaker:

it and move forward.

Speaker:

And that for me was so insightful because even the programs

Speaker:

that I create,

Speaker:

I'm trying to make it so they're not always reliant on

Speaker:

me forever,

Speaker:

and I didn't really know that about myself,

Speaker:

but been,

Speaker:

that's naturally what I've been creating.

Speaker:

People are asking me more and more to coach,

Speaker:

and even my communication style in terms of coaching is here's

Speaker:

the types of thoughts,

Speaker:

conversations, action steps.

Speaker:

Now take that and carry forth.

Speaker:

Versus now I'm going to teach you how to do it

Speaker:

all. That's not my style,

Speaker:

right? I'll help direct it,

Speaker:

but I'm not going to be your doer forever.

Speaker:

I want you to be able to do it.

Speaker:

So you're empowered,

Speaker:

Right? As an ENF J and I feel this so viscerally

Speaker:

because I am an ENF J but we do not want

Speaker:

to be seen as the one with all the answers.

Speaker:

We would rather get into a conversation or even start a

Speaker:

conversation that prompts the listener to find the answer within themselves.

Speaker:

We just intuitively know that everyone knows the answer.

Speaker:

You know the answer.

Speaker:

You just have to be prompted to ask yourself to answer

Speaker:

the question.

Speaker:

And so Sue,

Speaker:

I want you to,

Speaker:

this is like,

Speaker:

I haven't told any other ENF Jay to do this,

Speaker:

but I just happened to be watching the lion King on

Speaker:

freeform this past weekend because it's the middle of winter and

Speaker:

I am really,

Speaker:

really lame and I was watching the lion King and now

Speaker:

that I'm so deep into personality types,

Speaker:

I can't help myself.

Speaker:

When I'm watching movies,

Speaker:

I'm tying out the characters like I'm imagining what type they

Speaker:

are and I realized that,

Speaker:

and I'm going to blank on the name of the baboons,

Speaker:

the one that Simba meets in the jungle and Rafiki that's

Speaker:

his name.

Speaker:

Go watch lion King and just experience that baboons and how

Speaker:

he acts.

Speaker:

He is a,

Speaker:

Oh my goodness,

Speaker:

like quintessential textbook ENF J as an NFJ it will give

Speaker:

you such if your experience is anything like mine,

Speaker:

it just gives you so much inspiration and empowerment to be

Speaker:

that guide and give someone the gift of finding the answers

Speaker:

within themselves.

Speaker:

That's what we're here for.

Speaker:

Yep. I love that and I'm so excited now.

Speaker:

I am going to do that this weekend cause I just

Speaker:

loved the lion King movie.

Speaker:

Anyway, so now I have reset.

Speaker:

So that all works well.

Speaker:

One just quick self question for you because I have to

Speaker:

ask it is I also find that yes they have the

Speaker:

answer inside themselves but so much of the time they prevent

Speaker:

themselves from seeing it because of their own self-talk,

Speaker:

the mindset of who am I and like all of that.

Speaker:

So a lot of what I find,

Speaker:

even though we're going to start talking about a conversation of

Speaker:

how do you get more customers,

Speaker:

which products should I be offering?

Speaker:

All of that.

Speaker:

The real story is why would people ever even want to

Speaker:

buy from me or I'm afraid to put myself out there

Speaker:

because what if people aren't interested you?

Speaker:

Like it's more the mindset thing.

Speaker:

And so we get into a lot of that conversation too.

Speaker:

Does that align with my personality type?

Speaker:

For sure.

Speaker:

Because you're an intuitive feeler.

Speaker:

You prefer to look at your internal world for cues as

Speaker:

opposed to the external world.

Speaker:

And you are a feeler,

Speaker:

which means you tend to make decisions from what you're feeling,

Speaker:

the emotions as opposed to what you're thinking.

Speaker:

Now you might be working with someone who is more of

Speaker:

a thinker or someone who's more observant.

Speaker:

So looking externally and not internally and someone who's trying to

Speaker:

make a logical decision and using their mind and paying attention

Speaker:

to what their mind is saying as opposed to what they're

Speaker:

feeling. And there can be a disconnect there.

Speaker:

And this is yet another dynamic of our personality types.

Speaker:

We don't only work with people who have our personality type,

Speaker:

so to be first self aware of what your personality type

Speaker:

is and then become aware of who you're working with and

Speaker:

how you might be able to not change their personality type

Speaker:

to be yours,

Speaker:

but I'm speak to them in a way that they can

Speaker:

move past their hurdles in a way that makes sense to

Speaker:

them and not just that makes sense to you.

Speaker:

So in that case for you Sue,

Speaker:

you're going to be naturally and uniquely positioned to encourage people

Speaker:

to quiet the mind.

Speaker:

Even if they're a thinker,

Speaker:

quiet the mind,

Speaker:

extract themselves from the distractions externally and look inward for the

Speaker:

answers because you're an expert at that.

Speaker:

Whether you realize that or not,

Speaker:

you're an expert at that because you just do it naturally

Speaker:

so you're uniquely qualified and positioned to give people the space

Speaker:

and allow people to do that for themselves regardless of their

Speaker:

type. Beautiful.

Speaker:

I love hearing that.

Speaker:

That makes me feel good because it matches what I think.

Speaker:

So perfect.

Speaker:

And give his listeners,

Speaker:

I don't want you to feel like this has been self

Speaker:

serving, but this is a demonstration of the types of things

Speaker:

that you can learn about yourself as you start matching these

Speaker:

things up.

Speaker:

So I wanted to do a demonstration of that.

Speaker:

Now just on the other side.

Speaker:

The other thing,

Speaker:

and we won't take too long with this,

Speaker:

but the other thing is it also shows you what you

Speaker:

are less comfortable doing and what you should do less of

Speaker:

and maybe hire out for in your company because it doesn't

Speaker:

resonate with your personality type as well.

Speaker:

So let's talk about that in relation to an ENF J

Speaker:

Okay. Yeah.

Speaker:

So every single personality type,

Speaker:

I'll show you your best marketing strategy.

Speaker:

I also will show you your worst marketing strategy.

Speaker:

So that gives you the permission to either just simply not

Speaker:

utilize that worst thing in your strategy or if you feel

Speaker:

like it still belongs in your strategy,

Speaker:

that's something that you outsource and you get someone who's strength

Speaker:

is that thing to come in and work that for you

Speaker:

so you don't get bogged down in that worst marketing strategy.

Speaker:

And it's so fascinating.

Speaker:

Kind of breaks my heart sometimes,

Speaker:

but it's just what us humans do.

Speaker:

I find in so many people validated in their results,

Speaker:

their marketing personality type results and saying,

Speaker:

I knew this was my best marketing strategy.

Speaker:

And then they see their worst marketing strategy and they're like,

Speaker:

Oh man,

Speaker:

I have wasted so much time,

Speaker:

money and effort trying to make that worst marketing strategy work

Speaker:

for me.

Speaker:

Because for some reason we get into this comparison trap.

Speaker:

We see someone who is our exact opposite and we try

Speaker:

to do things like them because we think that's what we're

Speaker:

missing. If we could just master that thing that feels hard,

Speaker:

we would make it.

Speaker:

But in truth now you don't need that.

Speaker:

You just need you.

Speaker:

And what feels good?

Speaker:

So for an ENF J,

Speaker:

you know ENF Jay's tend to be pretty skillful and a

Speaker:

lot of things.

Speaker:

And I don't say that to toot my own horn,

Speaker:

that is not my aim.

Speaker:

Every time I have to say that,

Speaker:

I'm like,

Speaker:

Oh, that feels so self serving.

Speaker:

But it's not true.

Speaker:

It's ENF.

Speaker:

JS tend to be pretty dynamic in their skills and their

Speaker:

knowledge. And so in that we recognize that we probably could

Speaker:

do everything in our business ourselves if we had to,

Speaker:

we could do it.

Speaker:

And we kind of lean towards that,

Speaker:

especially in the beginning.

Speaker:

We're like,

Speaker:

I can totally do this.

Speaker:

We are some of the most empowering,

Speaker:

empowered people on the planet.

Speaker:

And so we're like,

Speaker:

I can totally do all of this.

Speaker:

I'm going to just take it all on.

Speaker:

And if we're not careful,

Speaker:

we keep everything that we took on and we don't give

Speaker:

anything away.

Speaker:

And the one thing that ENF Jays,

Speaker:

not that they're bad at it,

Speaker:

but they can really get bogged down by it and it

Speaker:

can hold them back from their best marketing strategy,

Speaker:

are the technical integrations of a sales funnel.

Speaker:

We're visionaries and so we can see how a sales funnel

Speaker:

can work.

Speaker:

We can strategize all day long about it,

Speaker:

we can put it into place and we can probably do

Speaker:

a really good job at putting it into place.

Speaker:

But not for our best gain.

Speaker:

Our best efforts are meant to be over here behind a

Speaker:

mic, creating conversations and empowering people with our mesmerizing voices,

Speaker:

not behind the scenes,

Speaker:

working out a tech glitch and figuring out if teachable integrates

Speaker:

with this thing over here and how to send this email

Speaker:

and can we do it?

Speaker:

Yes. Should we do it for our best gain?

Speaker:

Probably not.

Speaker:

So that's the ENF J suggestion And Oh my gosh.

Speaker:

Yeah. And that is so me,

Speaker:

so me.

Speaker:

And you should see all our marketing funnels,

Speaker:

like it's crazy.

Speaker:

But the thing that I did,

Speaker:

and I didn't do this because of the direction of knowing

Speaker:

that that was more my weakness just by my own huge

Speaker:

fortune. My assistant,

Speaker:

she has to take this because I need to know what

Speaker:

her personality type is.

Speaker:

But she's an engineer by training.

Speaker:

So she's so detailed and she's now the one who does

Speaker:

all that integration.

Speaker:

Sam cart through this too is matching this to infusion soft

Speaker:

stuff too.

Speaker:

Like all of that.

Speaker:

And it's so nice.

Speaker:

And now I'll go in there and check things and all

Speaker:

of that.

Speaker:

But in terms of building from scratch,

Speaker:

I won't do it anymore because she's so good at it.

Speaker:

And guess what?

Speaker:

She likes to do it,

Speaker:

I think.

Speaker:

I think she does.

Speaker:

We'll get she's skilled at it.

Speaker:

Yeah, because it's comfortable for her.

Speaker:

But we'll have to have her take that test cause I

Speaker:

need to know now.

Speaker:

But the other thing I just want to mention to our

Speaker:

listeners, you know,

Speaker:

cause a lot of you guys are just starting out with

Speaker:

your businesses.

Speaker:

So yeah,

Speaker:

you're going to be doing all the things,

Speaker:

but when you know what types of things you're less capable

Speaker:

of just by nature of your personality,

Speaker:

not that you can't do them,

Speaker:

but they're not the best fit for you.

Speaker:

That's a great directive on what you hire out for first.

Speaker:

When you're at that point in your business growth because that

Speaker:

it's going to release you of things that are less comfortable

Speaker:

so you retain the things that you can do so much

Speaker:

better and when you're focusing more on those,

Speaker:

you can also do them faster.

Speaker:

So I think it's great directive in that way as well.

Speaker:

Yeah, and I would also add to that,

Speaker:

even as you're just starting out,

Speaker:

of course you're going to wear all the hats,

Speaker:

but you also don't need every single marketing strategy under the

Speaker:

sun. You don't need to be in all of the places

Speaker:

you need to be in that one feel good place and

Speaker:

create a presence there.

Speaker:

And then once you've established that and you've really mastered it

Speaker:

to the point where it just comes so natural,

Speaker:

it's systemized,

Speaker:

it's a piece of you now,

Speaker:

then move on to something else.

Speaker:

I totally cringe when I see any business owner trying to

Speaker:

be in all of the places and all the places feel

Speaker:

kind of like a mess even if they feel good out

Speaker:

externally to other people,

Speaker:

but they're just kind of a mess internally behind the scenes.

Speaker:

It's like,

Speaker:

man, I really,

Speaker:

really want them to just slow down and focus on the

Speaker:

thing that they're best at and see what happens.

Speaker:

Because I know there's massive potential in that one place.

Speaker:

That's why marketing personalities exists in the first place.

Speaker:

You're so powerful in that in a natural feel good space.

Speaker:

And if you were to just lean into that and allow

Speaker:

yourself to focus on it and grow in that,

Speaker:

Oh man,

Speaker:

I mean you don't even need all the other places.

Speaker:

You just serve off to the races in that one focused

Speaker:

area and making a name for yourself and growing your business.

Speaker:

So yeah,

Speaker:

I encourage it and I've heard from a lot of people,

Speaker:

especially when I first brought this to the scene,

Speaker:

a lot of people were like,

Speaker:

Oh my goodness,

Speaker:

I have wasted so much time and energy on being everywhere.

Speaker:

And if I could have just known this,

Speaker:

this marketing personnel alley type from the beginning,

Speaker:

I could have just avoided all of that.

Speaker:

I think that's exactly why you're right on.

Speaker:

This is going to explode soon because it does really get

Speaker:

you around those hurdles before you even realize that you could

Speaker:

be blocked.

Speaker:

We're just gonna go around all of those distractions.

Speaker:

We're going to get you to the end point and you

Speaker:

can focus on that.

Speaker:

I'll tell you,

Speaker:

I think I got here slower.

Speaker:

I think I'm on the right path because the other thing

Speaker:

I'm doing this year is I've hired someone to help me

Speaker:

with my visibility and getting more speaking gigs and more PR

Speaker:

presence and all of that.

Speaker:

So this just confirms that that's a good path for me

Speaker:

to continue on.

Speaker:

But I probably could have cut two or three years out

Speaker:

of my development had I not been focusing on the blogs

Speaker:

and some of the other things and gone straight to more

Speaker:

of what naturally is right for me.

Speaker:

So I'm glad you're on the scene now,

Speaker:

Britt, because we all need you.

Speaker:

So we've already told them how to do their Myers Briggs.

Speaker:

Now, how can our listeners get some better understanding of their

Speaker:

personality type with the type of information that you just took

Speaker:

me through for themselves?

Speaker:

Yeah, it's really super simple.

Speaker:

So as long as you know your Myers Briggs personality type,

Speaker:

Then you'll go over to a special link that Britt has

Speaker:

set up for me.

Speaker:

For all of you,

Speaker:

it's gift biz,

Speaker:

unwrapped.com forward slash your marketing personality.

Speaker:

Again, gift biz,

Speaker:

unwrapped.com forward slash your marketing personality.

Speaker:

And what happens when they get there,

Speaker:

Brett, You'll simply click on your Myers Briggs personality type.

Speaker:

All 16 are right there on that page.

Speaker:

You just select yours and it'll take you through that information.

Speaker:

It'll be super easy to find every thing that we just

Speaker:

talked about,

Speaker:

And then you guys analyze how it feels.

Speaker:

I'm almost a hundred percent sure every single person is going

Speaker:

to have some insight like I did and definitely say,

Speaker:

Oh my gosh,

Speaker:

this is so right.

Speaker:

This is so me.

Speaker:

Because as I said at the top of the show during

Speaker:

our mastermind,

Speaker:

everyone was like blown away how right it was.

Speaker:

So I'm excited for all of you to do that.

Speaker:

So the first thing you do,

Speaker:

step one,

Speaker:

go to the Myers Briggs,

Speaker:

find out what you are and then go over to marketing

Speaker:

personalities.com. Click on the link that contains your letters and then

Speaker:

discovery is awaiting you.

Speaker:

So that's kind of exciting.

Speaker:

We're going to leave them with teas.

Speaker:

How about that,

Speaker:

Brett? Yeah.

Speaker:

Oh that's so good.

Speaker:

So any final comments?

Speaker:

Kind of a wrap up here about marketing personalities.

Speaker:

Well, thank you for giving me the floor and getting to

Speaker:

share this with your audience.

Speaker:

I can't wait to hear from them and hear what they

Speaker:

find. Validation,

Speaker:

new ideas,

Speaker:

empowerment to show up in their true natural feel.

Speaker:

Good light.

Speaker:

And I shared this at the event that Sue and I

Speaker:

met each other at.

Speaker:

Once you find your marketing personality type.

Speaker:

That's really the first step in that understanding and feeling that

Speaker:

validation. The next step that you could easily skip over and

Speaker:

probably go down a bad road with is you have to

Speaker:

believe that your natural personality type and what feels good to

Speaker:

you is enough.

Speaker:

We've got this thing going on in our society and our

Speaker:

culture that tells us that unless it's hard,

Speaker:

it's not worthwhile and unless it hard,

Speaker:

you don't deserve to make money.

Speaker:

Right? I mean hate is a strong word and that's why

Speaker:

I use it.

Speaker:

I hate that.

Speaker:

I mean I really,

Speaker:

really don't appreciate that mindset because when you feel good and

Speaker:

it's not hard,

Speaker:

you show up in such beautiful way and that's what's going

Speaker:

to attract your clients and customers.

Speaker:

So find your marketing personality type and then really believe that

Speaker:

that's enough to go far and reach your goals and your

Speaker:

dreams with this business because it is so believe in that.

Speaker:

Go for it.

Speaker:

Oh my gosh,

Speaker:

you have just presented gold.

Speaker:

I'm so glad I asked you that last question because this

Speaker:

point is huge.

Speaker:

It never has to be hard and when you start going

Speaker:

into hard,

Speaker:

you might be going off your path.

Speaker:

Could be a way to look at it as well.

Speaker:

I'm thinking.

Speaker:

Yeah. So at this point,

Speaker:

I'd like to present you with a virtual gift because you

Speaker:

were here and shared so much valuable information we want to

Speaker:

share back to you.

Speaker:

It's a magical box containing unlimited possibilities for your future.

Speaker:

So this is your dream or your goal of almost unreachable

Speaker:

height that you would wish to obtain.

Speaker:

Please accept this gift from us and open it right here

Speaker:

in our presence.

Speaker:

What is inside your box?

Speaker:

Oh, okay.

Speaker:

This actually might be my absolute favorite question on a podcast.

Speaker:

I forgot this one was coming.

Speaker:

This one's my favorite.

Speaker:

The candle is a good warmup,

Speaker:

but this one is just like takes the cake.

Speaker:

Okay? So as I opened my box,

Speaker:

you will see me on stage with a mic in my

Speaker:

hand. I gotta be on stage,

Speaker:

I have to be speaking.

Speaker:

That is absolutely what I'm called to do.

Speaker:

And I'm specifically speaking to women and encouraging them and empowering

Speaker:

them to be themselves just like I did.

Speaker:

I mean,

Speaker:

I just did that like a minute ago and that's why

Speaker:

I'm here.

Speaker:

I really believe that's my purpose in this life.

Speaker:

If we really want to go that big,

Speaker:

like that's why I'm here.

Speaker:

And so in side of my box is me on stage

Speaker:

with a mic in my hand speaking to women and encouraging

Speaker:

them to show up just as they are because that's exactly

Speaker:

what we need them to be.

Speaker:

That's exactly what this life needs them to be.

Speaker:

And aside from that,

Speaker:

I have a thriving community of people in marketing personalities,

Speaker:

affiliates that are making bank right alongside of me,

Speaker:

sharing about marketing personalities and maybe even a certification program out

Speaker:

there someday too.

Speaker:

Oh, I could see that because there's no way you're going

Speaker:

to be able to be everywhere,

Speaker:

right? I mean in person everywhere online you can,

Speaker:

but not in person.

Speaker:

Right. Oh,

Speaker:

I can see that so easily.

Speaker:

And you're a star on stage because you presented to us

Speaker:

last week.

Speaker:

Well, it's actually been a month now.

Speaker:

Whenever this goes live,

Speaker:

it'll be awhile.

Speaker:

But you definitely are in your jam when you're on stage

Speaker:

for sure.

Speaker:

Thank you.

Speaker:

On behalf of me and my listeners.

Speaker:

We wish all of this to come true for you because

Speaker:

as you said,

Speaker:

and these are my favorite is when some of these dreams

Speaker:

circle back and help a bigger group.

Speaker:

It's so wonderful and most of them actually do but love

Speaker:

yours. I'm so in tune with yours wishing you much success.

Speaker:

You go on and give biz listeners,

Speaker:

make sure you grab this information.

Speaker:

You're going to learn a lot about yourself and Britt,

Speaker:

I am just so honored that you came on the show

Speaker:

today and I could introduce you to my listeners.

Speaker:

Thanks again for being here.

Speaker:

Thanks so much for having me Sue,

Speaker:

So I'm usually pretty good at keeping secrets,

Speaker:

but I'm spilling the beans.

Speaker:

I can't help it.

Speaker:

I'm so excited.

Speaker:

I just want to tell you guys what I've been working

Speaker:

on over the last few months.

Speaker:

It's been a little bit of a secret project because I

Speaker:

wasn't sure exactly what the timing was going to look like

Speaker:

on it,

Speaker:

but I can't wait.

Speaker:

I have to share with you my secret.

Speaker:

Many of you have been following me for a while.

Speaker:

Know that I wrote a book that came out last may.

Speaker:

It's called maker to master,

Speaker:

but that's not what this is about.

Speaker:

Although it spins off a similar concept.

Speaker:

When I was getting serious about writing that book,

Speaker:

there were actually two books that I had in my mind.

Speaker:

One was maker to master and that truth be told was

Speaker:

the harder one to do,

Speaker:

but I also was really interested in writing a book that

Speaker:

was an inspirational book kind of inspiration a day.

Speaker:

I know you've seen those out there where it's 365 inspiring

Speaker:

thoughts for your year or something like that.

Speaker:

I think very often we get Defeated by our own self-talk

Speaker:

and we also sway away from core solid business growth values

Speaker:

because there's a new social media site that's available or other

Speaker:

things come up that take our mind off of the really

Speaker:

important things that we need to grow our business.

Speaker:

As things happen.

Speaker:

My idea continued to evolve and I came up with the

Speaker:

idea of instead of doing a 365 inspiring tips type book,

Speaker:

it would be way more helpful for you if it was

Speaker:

included in some type of a planner so that every day

Speaker:

when you're planning out your day,

Speaker:

you'd also then see a tip.

Speaker:

If I look at how I work with things,

Speaker:

I don't know if I would have a book on the

Speaker:

side of my desk and every day look at one day's

Speaker:

inspiration. Then another days operation.

Speaker:

Way better to have everything in one place.

Speaker:

Consequently, I have created a planner.

Speaker:

It's called inspired a daily planner specifically for you,

Speaker:

our wonderful community of gifters,

Speaker:

bakers, crafters and makers.

Speaker:

I'll be sharing more in the upcoming days,

Speaker:

but let me give you a few highlights here.

Speaker:

One of the cool things about this planner is you can

Speaker:

start any month of the year.

Speaker:

Have you ever been like me where all of a sudden

Speaker:

in may you decide I want to start things different.

Speaker:

I want to get myself really organized,

Speaker:

but then you go to find a,

Speaker:

and they either start in September going into the next year

Speaker:

or you have to buy a year and all the prior

Speaker:

months of the year are useless for you because you're all

Speaker:

in fee in may with this planner.

Speaker:

You can start anytime.

Speaker:

If you're listening to this announcement in January,

Speaker:

you can start it right away.

Speaker:

If you're hearing this in may,

Speaker:

you can use this planner starting in may.

Speaker:

It has monthly and daily layout,

Speaker:

so you'll be able to keep yourself really organized and special

Speaker:

life enhancing sections.

Speaker:

More on that later also includes what I've been talking about

Speaker:

earlier and the reason I changed this from a book to

Speaker:

a planner and that is daily inspiration.

Speaker:

Things that you need to be telling yourself,

Speaker:

affirmations to get in the right mindset as the owner of

Speaker:

your business.

Speaker:

Also, business tips and ideas.

Speaker:

Some of them you're gonna read and you're like,

Speaker:

yep, got it,

Speaker:

it's covered.

Speaker:

And then others might give you some pause ideas of things

Speaker:

you might want to implement into your business to further either

Speaker:

solidify or grow what you all have going.

Speaker:

That's all I'm going to share with you right now,

Speaker:

but I will tell you that we are just weeks away

Speaker:

from getting this out to you.

Speaker:

I'm going to do a limited first run and if you

Speaker:

want to be one of the first ones to know when

Speaker:

it's available,

Speaker:

jump over to gift biz unwrapped.com

Speaker:

forward slash add me and you'll get an email when the

Speaker:

planner is ready.

Speaker:

That link again is gift biz unwrapped.com

Speaker:

forward slash add me.

Speaker:

There is no time like the present to take the next

Speaker:

step on solidifying the dream you have for your business.

Speaker:

The new inspired planner could be just the ticket to make

Speaker:

it. I can show that that actually happens for you this

Speaker:

year. Have a great rest of your week and I'll catch

Speaker:

you again next Monday for a new episode of gift biz
