Definition of “purple passion”: With an intensity of emotion.

Know what I hate with a purple passion?!

Advertising.

It’s an annoying, in-your-face (on your front doorstep, in your mailbox, and on the
windshield of your car) interruptive way business owners use to get your attention and
makes sales.

Yuck.

Marketing, on the other hand, is a much gentler and non-threatening approach to
engaging with your target audience, growing your list, and building brand awareness.

Think of it this way:

Advertising is a “PUSH” and Marketing is a “PULL” (Where you attract your
audience to you with your content and they opt in to receive your content. They are in
complete control of the marketing messages they choose to see.)

Marketing is easy. It’s fun. And it’s the best way to build those all-important
relationships with your potential customers and clients.

As an entrepreneur and small business owner, your marketing “hat” will become the
most-worn garment in your business wardrobe!

To be highly successful, you need to wear your marketing hat every. single. day.
