Creative Lube

The newest episode of Creative Lube is awaiting your downloading pleasure. This month I talk about some common marketing mistakes creative businesses make, but I do it from a slightly different perspective. See, the problems you face are very similar to the problems any service business faces. You are not alone, and there are things you can do to avoid or correct these errors.

As a special offering, this episode WAS free for everyone for a week, but now it’s too late. If you want this podcast, you’ll have to purchase it separately, which is temporarily impossible due to a technical hiccup. Check back and this should be fixed soon.

Why not subscribe? While you won’t get this episode (subscriptions include the subsequent 12 months of episodes) you will get a full year of Creative Lube.
