    “My Business Became My Entire Identity” with Laura Jane Barnes (TikTok & IG viral sensation!)

    “My Business Became My Entire Identity” with Laura Jane Barnes (TikTok & IG viral sensation!)

    Laura Jane Barnes is an entrepreneur, creator, musician, and social media savant who also happens to be a TikTok & IG viral sensation. (You’ve probably heard one of her songs!)

    In this interview, Laura shares her biggest business mistake: the inability to separate her personal identity from her business.

    I talk about my own personal loss and Laura recounts her journey from viral music creation on social media to redefining her business approach after a critical injury.

    Together, we examine how tying your identity too closely to business successes can often be disastrous.

    How to Do Email Successfully in 2024 with Eman & The Marketing Meetup

    How to Do Email Successfully in 2024 with Eman & The Marketing Meetup

    We talk a lot about mistakes on this podcast. This time, I want to talk about how to do something right.

    Instead of our usual interview, I delve into the art and science of effective email marketing following recent deliverability updates from major email providers like Google and Yahoo.

    I share to ensure your emails continue to reach your subscribers' inboxes, and I give you the scoop on list cleaning, making unsubscribing easy, maximising subscriber engagement, nurturing subscribers, and sending targeted, relevant emails.

    I did this presentation as a webinar for The Marketing Meetup, a community of 50,000 marketers last month. Hope you love it! :)
