    Overwhelmed by Marketing? Create a Plan That Finally Works for You With Cat Markel

    Welcome to the Business Growth Trailblazers Podcast! In today’s episode, we're helping you break through the overwhelm and create a marketing plan that helps you grow, one that finally makes sense of all the moving pieces in your business. Cat Markel is the founder of Cat Markel Creatives, a boutique brand and web studio that helps coaches, creatives, and small business owners build brands that look good, work well, and actually feel like them. Known for her practical, coffee-fueled approach, Cat blends creativity, strategy, and genuine conversation to help entrepreneurs simplify their message, strengthen their systems, and grow with confidence. Her clients often describe working with her as equal parts design, therapy, and business clarity session — because she doesn’t just build websites or brands, she helps people finally make sense of their business again. When she’s not deep in creative work, Cat can usually be found in comfy leggings with a cat (or two) nearby, a mug of coffee within reach, and far too many tabs open in her browser — dreaming up new ways to make business feel lighter and life more aligned.

    How to Generate Free Leads Using an Untapped Print Media Strategy With Rachel Smith & Dalton Joyner

    Welcome to the Business Growth Trailblazers Podcast! In today’s episode, we’re helping you generate free leads or even start a new side hustle using an untapped print media strategy you’ve probably never heard of.

Today, they teach others to do the same through The Community Card Playbook—helping business owners get free advertising in their own communities and showing side-hustlers how to launch postcard businesses that can scale into full-time freedom.  From the open road, they’re on a mission to help people break out, level up, and build a life they don’t need a vacation from.
