On this week's episode of Not Your Average Online Marketing Podcast, I'm sharing the details of how I'm stepping away from the business for TWO WHOLE WEEKS to get married - without sacrificing what I've built - team, time, and revenue.

I'll share what I've put in place to maintain business operations and growth during my destination wedding and honeymoon. When you listen in you're going to hear:

How I'm leveraging Facebook ads and automation while I'm out of office to continue sales and revenue generating activitiesThe importance of communication and expectations if you are going to step away from the business - for both your team and your audienceThe role that recurring revenue is playing in creating stability to aid in stepping back

We all need a little support (from our team, audience, and students) to step back - and this episode breaks down how we're approaching getting that support.
