Today’s guest is Lisa Barry, a copywriter and marketer, and the founder of Mission Led Content. She helps small business owners make sales without big teams, pushy tactics, or feeling like a manipulative, spammy arsehole. Lisa’s all about clear, human marketing that actually works.Our conversation started with a simple question ... why should we, as business owners, care so much about words?From there, we went deep. We talked about the damage misleading business practices can cause, how Mission Led businesses navigate that space with integrity, and what it really takes to cut through the noise.I loved exploring the energy behind our content and the impact of AI on how we show up and sell. We could definitely have carried on for much longer, so I’ve no doubt Lisa will be making a repeat appearance on the podcast. You can find her on Facebook, Linkedin and grab the freebies she talked about on her website.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisa.barry.319LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-barry-bab09a53/Website: https://missionledbusinesshub.co.uk/This Podcast is a Production of:Zokit Business Hubs - the leading network and resource for owners, directors and entrepreneurs. https://zokit.co.uk/Lead Producers: Neil J Lloyd
