Okay friend, let’s talk about something that might be the reason your brand isn’t hitting the way you want it to: consistency. I know it’s tempting to chase cute, clever, and constantly reinvent your content, but here’s the truth—I learned back in my real estate days that consistency is what actually creates connection, trust, and long-term recognition.In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of one of my favorite early marketing experiments (spoiler: it involved postcards and a lot of lessons in branding). You’ll hear how showing up with a simple, consistent message outperformed our flashier, “cuter” ideas by a whopping 62%.
