The Visionary Files
Do you ever hear about a business having wild success or achieving *the coolest* result and think, "how the eff did they do that?" Yeah… us, too! That’s why we created The Visionary Files™ podcast (relaunching October 2024)! We publish weekly case study-style episodes to ask successful biz owners all of our (and probably your) burning questions so we can dig deep into the strategies, tactics, mindset, and metrics behind what worked and what didn’t.

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