Welcome back to another episode of The Weeniecast - the podcast for ADHD entrepreneurs seeking business strategies. I'm your host Katie McManus. 

Let’s investigate the topic of marketing for your brand new business.

But before we jump in, let's address a common trap that many entrepreneurs fall into: cutting corners.

In order to get you past some seriously troublesome obstacles you might come across when trying to get revenue for your new ADHD business, I’m going to share a personal story about my misguided college experience and how it taught me the importance of doing things properly before jumping into anything.

This lesson applies to your business as well.

Trust us, this episode will save you time, money, and headaches in your journey as an ADHD entrepreneur!

  The importance of due diligence

In this episode of The Weeniecast, I'm going to talk you through the significance of conducting thorough research before making important business decisions. 

Cutting corners and then hoping for the best is such a weenie way of getting started. 

But if you are going to jump right in (and you will want to because you're ADHD!) then you need to know what to look out for when it comes to getting attention for your business.

This is why I'm here to help you with this episode.

The pitfalls of going prematurely

Seriously. cannot. stress. this. enough! It's not a great idea to go rushing into marketing before having a verified offer.

I'll explain how you can ensure yours is first and that you've got a solid business that's ready for marketing.

Hiring marketers without having a market-ready offer can be seriously weenie.

Doing the groundwork and validating the demand for the product/service is crucial before diving into those marketing efforts!

About the Podcast

The Weeniecast: make more money, create an impact
Money mindset and impact coaching for business owners
I help business owners make more money in less time, so they can create bigger impact.
It doesn't matter what it is, we all have a sense of purpose. We want to leave a legacy.
We want to matter. And the best way of doing that, is to become wealthy.
But the sad reality is a lot of us are stuck in 'weenie' mode. In other words, we make up excuses for why we can't become our brilliant, wealthy selves.
That ends with this podcast.

My name is Katie McManus.
As a CPCC (Certified Professional Co-Active Coach) I know how to help people like you to reach their financial goals, and earn the life they've always dreamed of.

Until quite recently, I described myself as a business strategist and money mindset coach who was focusing on helping business owners with ADHD to get more income from their business.
I've been helping some of them get eleven times the value of their investment back.
And then, I had an epiphany.
I was being a weenie.
Being a business strategist is not the limit of my gifts to the world.
I'm also a political activist, a serial entrepreneur who oversees multiple six figure businesses, and I'm the founder of a non-profit with dreams of helping members of the LGBTQ+ community to find more joy from their lives in a very specific way.
And all of that is being achieved by scaling my business in a way that I don't have to be in it every hour of the day, but still make enough money to work hard on making impact.
Do you also want to learn how you can make more money, in less time, so that you can create impact on your community, or with projects that are important to you?

Want coaching on money mindset, sales advice, and general business growth, but all from the safety and comfort of your own space?

If you're wanting to listen to business strategy and money mindset advice that's specifically targeted to business owners like you who want to achieve BIG things but maybe have some challenges, then "The Weeniecast" is the podcast for YOU.

I will help you understand your own potential for growing a dream business that works without you but still makes seriously life-changing amounts of money.
