The Get Paid Podcast: The Stark Reality of Entrepreneurship and Being Your Own Boss Hailey Dale: Done-For-You Vs. Courses (and We Hate Membership Sites)
Hailey Dale is a certified content strategist and founder of Your Content Empire, where she partners with small business owners who are over the ‘shoulds’ and ready to build their content empires – their way. Through her programs, agency, and award-winning, tell-all blog, she’s helped thousands of entrepreneurs create smarter content that regularly delights them and their customers while growing their bottom lines.
This week on the Get Paid Podcast Haley joins us to chat about the challenges of balancing a done-for-you business while still launching courses, building an email list when you’re starting from nada, and why memberships are a bad, bad idea if you’re just cutting your teeth.
