EP 54: Marketing Your Bodywork Business without Social Media with Alex Franzen
I bet at some time in your career you’ve been told that you MUST use social media to get new clients and fill your practice. I was certainly told that when I was starting out…
But is that true?
In the past few months, I’ve decided for many reasons (time, focus, a need to have integrity and make my actions reflect my beliefs) to close almost all my social media accounts. I wanted to gain some insight from someone who has walked that path before me to find out what effect being off of social media might have on my business.
In today’s episode I chat with Alexandra Franzen about how she decided that social media was no longer for her, and what she did instead to market and grow her business.
Listen in as we talk about her personal boundaries set around social media that have allowed more focused space in her life for creativity, productivity, and business growth.
“It is possible to sell products and services and programs without social media. There are other ways to connect with customers.”
-- Alexandra Franzen
