Why your personality is hurting your business
On this spicy episode, Sasha goes off the cuff and discusses the pros and cons of inserting personality into marketing strategies and businesses. She counters the common belief of personality being key for success and client attraction in business.
The TL;DR? Focusing too much on personality can limit growth, make scaling difficult, and even potentially harm mental health. Instead of leveraging personality, she advises listeners to focus on solving their customers' problems and catering to their desires, since ultimately they are what matter most in running a business.
