Easy to Share About Brands You Love

Image
It's easy to share about brands you love. The question is why aren't you sharing about your own company?

I have never heard someone say it's because they hate their company.

When I talk with B2B sales reps about social selling and how they are using social media today, I basically get two different answers:

"I'm afraid to share something wrong or something that will make me look stupid."

Slow and steady wins the race

I’ve been working on Radi8 for 3 years now. I’ve started and stopped and started and stopped. I’ve given up... then picked up the pieces and started new. I’ve tossed them out, turned left and picked up different ones. Sometimes I think entrepreneurship is a curse, but more often I think it’s a blessing. The depression that follows a failure is quickly replaced by hope as a new insight emerges. Then I dust off and start climbing again. My hands sweat even now as I think about how I’m going to make it to the next ledge. If you’re trudging, don’t give up. It’s the tortoise that wins the race.
