I can’t wait for you to hear this interview, because there were a couple of things that Kyshira said about marketing and money mindset that were SO GOOD they just gave me chills twice - once when she said them, and then again while I was producing this episode!
I totally resonated with Kyshira’s story because like me, she grew her side hustle to six figures before quitting her day job - and she’s all about focusing on organic marketing strategies - which are marketing strategies that cost you time instead of money - and as you’ll hear from Kyshira, the return on your time investment is well worth it.
This episode is basically a mini-course on how marketing works from someone who’s not an expert in organic marketing, but an expert in how to sell high-ticket offers, and the branding and positioning behind it.
So grab a pen and paper, you’re gonna wanna take notes on this one!
Kyshira and I talk about:
- Her journey to becoming a business coach specializing in organic marketing strategies.
- Exactly how she grew her side hustle to six figure business before she quit her full time job.
- Why organic marketing strategies are the best place to focus when you’re first starting out.
- Some of the biggest mindset issues that hold her clients back.
- The beginning steps to take when you’re getting started with organic marketing.
- Behind the scenes of Kyshira’s business + what a typical day looks like for her.
- Why investing in yourself and your mindset is one of the most important investments you can make in your business.
- Her best advice for you if you’re struggling to get traction in your side hustle.
- The one belief Kyshira had to change about herself to get where she is today.
My favorite quotes from Kyshira:
- “I care a lot about curating the right experiences with the right people, working with the right clients. I'm really big on energy and alignment and things like that. I found organic marketing brings the right people to me.”
- “You're given these talents, you have your own unique touch that just no one else has.”
- “The people with the most likes don’t always end up with the most money.”
- “You have to direct people. You have to say, “Click this link, go do this, go sign up, go book.” People underestimate the power that those two or three little words have, but you have to instruct your audience!”
- “My business is not going to run me. I am not going to be abused by my business. I am going to take the time that I need.”
- “When you start to recognize that you're worth spending the money, you recognize that you're worth receiving the money.”
