Deep dives

The Challenge of Self-Promotion

Self-promoting one's services can be particularly challenging for introverted individuals, especially those running small businesses. Many introverts struggle with the idea of asserting their expertise and asking clients to consider their services, as it often feels uncomfortable to 'sell' themselves. This discomfort can stem from the introverts' general tendencies towards modesty and a desire to avoid attention, making it difficult to confidently express their capabilities. Finding a way to market themselves that aligns with their personality and comfort level is crucial for their professional success.
