Episode Synopsis

Are you over being pitched to on social media by people who pretend to like you? I am.In this episode, I’m griping about being cold-messaged and pitched to in the DMs by people with businesses who are looking for leads and clients. Social media is a great place to connect with others and share offers, products, and services, but I need you guys to keep it real. Stop pretending to like me with the bs you tell about why you want to connect with me. I’m annoyed with the lies. I’ll talk about what I think works better in creating genuine connections, which can lead to better relationships and partnerships.Tune in to hear why I’m over this fake flattery approach to business and why it doesn’t work for people who want to have authentic connections.
