How to Turn All that Marketing Advice into Action

Are you a “training addict”? Wondering how to handle all of the marketing and business information you’re taking in? Allow me to suggest a plan.

It’s easy to say, “Just don’t read or listen to any more marketing advice until you implement what you already have.”

But digital marketing and business do change. Besides, learning is fun. And it doesn’t have to get in the way of doing … if you have a system.

Here’s my system for capturing the ideas from newsletters, tutorials, blog posts, and courses, and turning them into action steps for my business.

In this 21-minute episode, I talk about:

  • The tool every creative person needs to capture ideas as they fly by
  • Understanding the top-level categories all marketing advice falls into
  • The 16-year-old productivity advice that I still use every day
