What NOT to do when starting an online business.

Mind Your Own Online Business

Thinking about starting an online business? GREAT! But before you dive in, let’s talk about what not to do if you actually want to succeed. In this episode, I’m breaking down the biggest mistakes new digital marketers make—like cold DMing (seriously, stop that), spamming social media, violating FTC rules, and falling for the Master Resell Rights trap.

I’ll also cover why "engagement & “follow for follow trains" are actually hurting you, and taking money to promote sketchy courses can get you shadowbanned, restricted, or even sued. If you want to build a real online business (without looking desperate or spammy), you need to hear this.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why cold DMing is a waste of time (and what to do instead)
• FTC violations that could cost you big time
• How spammy tactics hurt your brand and kill trust
• The dark side of Master Resell Rights courses
• What to avoid if you actually want to make money online
