Quotes from Shondell Varcianna:
“If I know of you, but I don’t know you, how can I offer you anything because I don’t really know what you want.”
“Wherever your target audience is, is where you want to be. You’ll have to find out where they are, and then you just need to show up where they are, consistently.”
“Everyone is accessible on social media. Everybody. I connect with strangers every single day on social media.”
“Content that speaks to everyone is content that speaks to no one.”
