For 6 YEARS, I refused to collaborate with other business owners. No bundles, summits, podcast interviews, panels, giveaways, or swaps. Nothing. I’d had some really painful experiences with other business owners (and online bullies!), and I started believing that collaboration meant someone wanted to USE ME to get access to my list, make me do all the marketing, or dump all the work on me. So I shut myself off. Then in 2023, I finally felt confident enough to start putting myself out there again, and I did it in a BIG WAY. In 2024 alone, I participated in 123 bundles and summits. Over the past 3 years, I’ve done 300+ collaborations with other online business owners. Collaborations helped me rebuild my email list FAST because they put me in front of audiences I never could’ve reached by myself. But after doing hundreds of them, I’ve learned something equally important: You should NOT say yes to every bundle just because it’s free visibility. Some are incredible opportunities, and some are a gigantic waste of time. That’s why I’m participating in the FREE Collab & Connect Summit, happening October 5-9 with 50+ online business owners. Don't miss my summit presentation: 🔥 Bundle or Bust: What Actually Predicts a Bundle’s Success (Lessons Learned From 100+ Bundles) 🔥 You'll learn what I look for BEFORE saying yes, including why the host’s reputation, the theme, and even the application process can tell you a lot about whether an opportunity is worth your time. Because you don’t have to build your business in a silo. You can leverage other people’s audiences, get in front of more potential clients, grow your list, make more money, AND still be selective and strategic about who you work with. We all get further when we lift each other up. 👉 Click here to grab your free ticket to the Collab & Connect Summit. Your free registration also includes the summit community, networking events, and a virtual swag bag with more than $3,000 in freebies.

Oh, I just love it when someone gets one of my courses for FREE in a bundle or summit, and then they leave a comment in the course calling me a shitty coach with even shittier ideas. I guess you got what you paid for, boo! 😘 But seriously, there will always be haters trying to tear you down. Meanwhile, they're blaming the world for their troubles and not taking action towards their goals. At least I'm doing something in my own shitty way! I like to remember that, "you'll never be criticized by someone doing more than you." 👇 Leave a comment and share the worst hate comment you've ever gotten. I could use a laugh!
