Marketing Is Something You Have to Learn | Joe Polish

MARKETING IS MORE THAN A LOGO. If your struggling in an area of your life, it could be due to marketing. Marketing isn’t just important in your business. It’s in every area of your life. Everything you do is designed to attract or repel others. The way that you’re telling your story and selling yourself has a lot to do with who is willing to get on board. That’s why I wanted to bring back a conversation I had on The School of Greatness with a master marketer: Joe Polish. Joe Polish is the founder of Genius Network® and co-founder of the popular podcast ILoveMarketing.com. Joe’s marketing expertise has been utilized to build thousands of businesses and has generated hundreds of millions of dollars for his clients, ranging from large corporations to small family-owned businesses.

Joe’s mission is to help change the global conversation surrounding addiction and addicts from one of judgement to one of compassion. Joe makes the point that marketing is something you have to learn. It’s all about setting people up to be interested in what you’re offering so that you don’t have to rely on talking them into it.
