#068 – You Don't Have to be Techy to be Successful Online

With everything you must do to grow your small business does the thought of all the tech stuff make you want to crawl in a corner and hide? The tech is supposed to make our lives easier, but it runs at lightning speeds and is overwhelming.  Wouldn't it be nice to have a place to go to be shown the basics to get you started and get you over the hump of your fear of tech?  In today's podcast, I invited my husband Robert to the show. He doesn't consider himself a "techy" person. We discuss the launching of his personal brand website. He feels comfortable with knowing the basics and experimenting with his messages and his communication to grow his following and grow his freelancing business. Most of us, when just starting out, don't have the budget to hire people to do our blogging, email campaigns, social posts, etc. We are doing everything ourselves. The thing is…we are overwhelmed as to what to do and where to start. To leverage your time, wouldn't it be nice to have a place to go where you can learn the basics in a simple, straightforward manner to get you through until you're ready to hire someone? Wouldn't it be nice to be involved in a community of people just like you who fear tech just as much as you? Wouldn't it be nice to feel comfortable asking questions and not feeling behind the times or like an amateur? You're not alone if feeling lost in navigating on how to work your business in the online world. As I reveal in this week's podcast, I'm taking applications on creating a community just for those who feel technically challenged. It's a perfect place for those who are in the in-between stage of needing to know enough of the tech to grow your business but not ready to hire your first virtual assistant. I hope you enjoy this week's episode as Robert and I talk about not being ashamed of being tech challenged. To learn more about the application process, drop me a note at [email protected]. If you've got the tech thing down but know someone who needs help, I'd be honored if you'd share.
