Hi reader,
How do you serve your community?
Not community service or even activism. I mean, the people you provide a product or service for?
Back when I was a freelance journalist cutting my teeth, I thought I was serving the person paying me: The fledging newspaper, the international magazine, or the growing website.
It didn’t take long for me to realize that the publication was just the catalyst to reach who I was really serving: The hip-hop head who needed a trusted voice, the tech fan that wanted to understand the next wave, or the overlooked cultural leader searching for an accurate representation of their movement.
The medium wasn’t the message, and the message wasn’t about me. It was about the zeitgeist I was trying to capture.
Average Lead Magnets Create Average Results
Why are over 850 savvy marketers following the proven blueprint from Master the Email-Based Course? Three compelling reasons:
It's taught by an expert whose very first email course was acquired
You get 20 bulletproof lessons on building captivating, revenue-driving email courses
These strategies are battle-tested by top creators
As Dickie Bush put it: "Actionable takeaways within 5 minutes...Huge value."
See what 850+ solopreneurs and creators are raving about.
This framing of being a megaphone for the under respected, voiceless, or misunderstood has helped me bridge community and commerce easier.
For instance, supporting side hustlers, solopreneurs, and other non-traditional entrepreneurs means I’m always in your corner (community).
It means turning away opportunities that aren’t going to serve you (community over commerce).
But it means you knowing that when I share something, it is in the best interest of the greater movement (community supporting commerce).
It means trust.
And with that trust comes the support to keep doing what I’m doing.
You may have noticed sponsors coming through here and some of my other content. I believe each fits the Bring Your Worth community and maybe even specifically you. But that understanding only comes over time.
And I’m excited to pull back the proverbial curtain on how it works.
On today’s #BringYourWorth live, I’ll share ways to get sponsors, suggestions to build up an audience, and answer questions you’ve got on getting started.
