I will never "NICHE DOWN"

Why I Refuse to Niche Down:

 Hey friends! Mara here, the mastermind (and fun vibes creator) behind Gotta Know Me Co.

Here is the 411—

 Today, I'm tossing aside the rulebook and diving into the rebellious world of why I absolutely, positively, refuse to niche down.

 And trust me, I preach the same gospel to all my clients…

 Picture this:

You're scrolling through your Instagram feed, and suddenly, there's me, your digital marketing confidante, dishing out pro tips on boosting your social media game. Next thing you know, bam! There's a snapshot of my mini mischief-makers turning my home office into a chaotic playground.

Hold the phone, I know what you're thinking,

"Mara, that's not how the pros do it; it's unprofessional!" But oh, dear friend, let me be the voice of reason in this sea of boring conformity - I say, bring on the spontaneity!  

It's the unpredictability, the unfiltered moments, and the overall FUN that make your feed not just a digital billboard but a real-life story unfolding in pictures and videos.

Why? Because I’m not just a business owner; I'm a whole vibe, a 29-year-old mom, wife to an entrepreneur, business owner, friend and creator navigating this wild adventure called life.

So, let's tackle the objections head-on… "My friends don't want to see professional work tips." Really? Your friends aren't secretly craving the magic sauce to up their game? Trust me, everyone loves a good hack, especially when it comes from a friend who's a pro.

And then there's the classic, "My clients don't want to see my kids." Oh, but they do! Who can resist the cuteness overload of tiny humans injecting pure joy into behind-the-scenes moments? It's real, it's relatable, and it's downright heartwarming.

 Here's the deal, and say it with me:


You are not a product;

you're a PERSON!

People connect with people, not faceless entities spouting generic blah blah advice.

Sure, I'm your social media guru by day, but the rest of the time I'm a mom, a wife, obsessed with the newest wellness fad and a diehard Sweet Home Alabama fan. And you know what? That's exactly why people resonate with Gotta Know Me Co.

I firmly believe that your story, quirks, and all, are what make your brand authentic. So, let's break free from the mold, ditch the idea of perfect professionalism, and embrace the beautifully messy collage that is YOU.

It's not about appealing to everyone; it's about connecting with the right people—the ones who vibe with your authenticity, laugh at your jokes, and cheer you on when life gets a bit too lively.

And remember, YOU are forever, not just this one business venture that you may or may not be doing ten years from now. Investing in YOU as a brand is the smartest marketing investment you can make. It's a pledge to consistently refine your skills, amplify your uniqueness, and authentically connect with your audience, creating a brand legacy that stands the test of time.

So, in the whirlwind of business ventures and creative pursuits, don't forget the core element that remains unwavering—YOU.

Embrace the journey, invest in your brand persona, and let it flourish!✨

 

Much love,

Mara, your cool mom creator friend
