The new Global Marketing Trends 2021 report from Deloitte Insights provides us with clues for what is heading our way in marketing.

Despite the pandemic overload, consumers have a positive perspective on how brands are responding to the current environment, providing for positive experiences and even increased brand loyalty.

The top 7 trends are pointing to a need to lose the façade we often present to customers and instead be authentic while holistically meeting their needs.

Imagine if you had one little 4 letter word at your disposal that could keep you compliant with the law and prevent you from being attacked by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration), the FTC (Federal Trade Commission), or any other big brother agency.

When you’re writing sales copy - whether it’s an email, a sales letter, a blog post, or even a social media post - you’ve got to be careful.

One poorly worded claim and now the FDA is coming after you for giving medical advice...

If it’s your own Facebook Group, then you can market your programs with no problem.

But if you’re in a Facebook Group run by anyone else, you’ve basically got two options:

1: Be active, provide value, answer questions and solve people’s problems to get noticed.

Because this can be time intensive, you might want to pick one group and stick with it rather than spreading your attention over several groups. Or you can outsource this work to someone else.

Everyone’s got a book inside of them, just waiting to get out. And some people have dozens of books that can each be earning them a monthly income… if only they could just get started.

Remember multiple choice tests? You were told that “C” was the right answer and “A” “B” and “D” were wrong.

Nope. According to school, there is always ONE right answer.

It makes grading tests a whole lot easier, plus it trains people to follow orders from bosses who...

Anytime and every time you do anything in your business, write it down.

Found a new resource? A new shortcut? A new market? Had a brilliant idea? Or even a crazy idea? Write it all down.

If you try something and it works, write it down. If it didn’t work, write that down, too.

It doesn’t matter what your niche is. The point is to keep track of everything you do in your business.

Then when something pays off big, you have three options:

1. Follow the steps in your notebook to...
