There once was a hippie named Tad.

His sliminess made him feel sad.

So he put that behind

And then he designed

A marketing plan that feels rad.

Highlights:



* Tad’s journey from slime to rad

* Why does slimy marketing exist?

* Where do you draw the line between what feels good and what feels slimy? (with examples)

* The 4 steps Tad helps hippies with:



* Marketing feels gross. Antidote: It’s not about selling. It’s about finding the truth of “is this a fit?”

* Where do I fit in the marketplace?

* What do I want to be known for?

* Making it easier to get clients/customers (going from cold to warm to hot marketing)





* Changing the world. “What if everyone used this marketing tactic?”

* Tad closes with some sleight of hand and a Gaelic blessing

Tara Swiger gives us her perspective on being a Christian who doesn’t fit the stereotypes of Christians, and how her beliefs affect her business without being overt or preachy.

Your biz as exploring.

And if that’s too boring,

She also adores Deep Space Nine.

Highlights:



* When people think “Christian” they think of Ned Flanders from The Simpsons

* “For me, it’s about love.” -Tara Swiger

* Being a spiritual entrepreneur doesn’t necessarily mean bringing your spirituality into your business in an obvious way.

* authenticity does not mean turning on the identity firehose

* Are we innately deserving of love or do we need to be forgiven?

* Fire and brimstone in religion and in business

* features vs. benefits

* marketing with confidence

* what Christmas means to Tara and how she brings it into her business
