Quotes:
- “I think we can be open and honest with our audience but still have boundaries and I think it’s really important to not blur that line.” - Tori
- “Humans are naturally drawn to consistency. So to us it may feel like “wow, I’m posting the same kind of things” but our audiences actually really like that. So never feel like when it comes to content that you’re having to come up with these brand new ideas every time you go to post.” - Tori
- “Not everyone is going to be your ideal client. So you shouldn’t be going into those initial interactions with the mindset of “ok, how do I get this person. . .” You should be going into those initial interactions with the mindset of “let's get to know each other so I can see if I even want to turn this into a conversation about what I want to offer.” - Tori
- “Really get your ideal client nailed down and reference that when you create content.” - Tori
