How about being the odd one out? That’s probably one of the most nagging feelings.

Your friends went out to the movies without you. There’s a new fashion trend circulating on social media and you’re thinking of jumping in. Your favorite brand has just launched a giveaway. Everyone in your class is crazy about this new mobile game.  You’re not really into gaming, but you’re curious!  

FOMO stands for the fear of missing out. It’s a psychological phenomenon in which a person feels left out because he missed out on something interesting.

We’re hardwired to belong. Social media intensifies

Failure is inevitable. It’s a part of life, and entrepreneurs in particular experience a huge amount of it. It’s difficult to stay positive when in the face of failure…

But I’m here to tell you why you should be celebrating them instead of feeling down about it. 🙂

Every entrepreneur has encountered some sort of failure and will continue to do so for as long as they are entrepreneurs. Expect that you will fail a lot of times… because it’s only with failure that you actually learn and improve.

Ever thought of the possibility of an email generating over 60% of your revenue from that email promotion sent out to your list?

Can you imagine building a business without any customers being interested in what you have to offer? Well, that won’t be much of a business at all! For this reason, you need to generate leads. Leads are people who express interest in your business and are likely to become your customers.

Have you ever been to a webinar and just had, genuinely, the best time? Everything about it was impressive, and you wondered if you would ever be able to host a webinar as good?

Maybe you had all sorts of doubts going through your head, about not knowing what to say or not being good with speaking live…

I know the struggle because I’ve been there. I was there for years, in fact.

My mind was making up all sorts of excuses for not being a native English speaker, not knowing the

Keeping pace with ecommerce giants is like being in a foreign land for the very first time. It’s like taking a leap into the unknown. You feel different emotions – excitement, anxiety, and fear. You’re hungry for help. 

But just because Amazon and other thriving online retailers have captured your audience, doesn’t mean you can’t. Not all hope is lost! A brick and mortar store like yours has a chance if you know the right strategies.

But First, Have an Online Presence.

It goes without saying that you should create a website and be found elsewhere online – social media,
