Marketing With Integrity in a Post-Bropocalypse World – with Steve Corney
Show Notes

If you’ve been taught to sell in a certain way (cough cough, ‘Bro Marketing’) – no shame – but I’m here to tell you there’s a better way. (Like, so, SO much better).


This episode covers the icky soup of deceptive selling practices known as Bro Marketing, plus a pinch of Woo Marketing, that’s been wafting through the online biz space. (A WooBro Biske, if you will.)


Here’s the thing – manipulation is out and integrity is in. 


Steve Corney joins me for a second *super*spicy chat about how we must change our (sometimes unconscious but always unconscionable) sales and marketing approach now that we are living in a ‘Know – Like – Distrust’ state. 



Quick overview of what we cover:

  • Why you need to understand deceptive sales practices, even if you think they don’t apply to you
  • The exact point where you turn into a ‘piece of sh*t marketer’
  • How Woo Marketers are able to convince you that both the source of, and the solution to your problems is YOU (and why you pay them for this nonsense)
  • How to tell if you if your {insert BS Title Here} Coach is gaslighting you
  • How you doing the right thing actually sets you up to ‘get woo’d’
  • What kind of marketing leads to this client response: “Huh… There isn’t a catch. Amazing. This is cool. I’M IN.”
  • How to build enthusiastic consent into your sales approach
  • The Better Way to make someone feel safe when purchasing from you
