No, it goes beyond social media and flows into word-of-mouth, print, radio, TV, and so on. The problem is that probably nine out of 10 business owners are not marketing-savvy, but rather, were really good technicians who worked hard or maybe, came across some money and opened a business with it.

You work hard every day, maybe have kids, pets, obligations, and so many distractions, but you also have an itch to work on that money-making idea. Maybe, you already do have a lil' side hustle going on, but not really sure if you're doing it right or not. I mean, there's legal issues, tax issues, growth opportunities, marketing, and so much more that you really need clarity on, right?

In the process, you might gain a more realistic grasp of what's going on around you and how your mind is being manipulated, or brainwashed.
