Today’s episode is different than any other episode you’ve experienced on Build Your Tribe! You’ll be listening in on a coaching call between me and one of my dear friends, Jen — who’s also a Marketing Impact Academy student. While the topic of our session is all about writing an eBook, the coaching and strategies discussed can be applied to many other products (or situations) one might develop for their business.
