When I was 18, I worked with three women in Ireland who spent months preparing for a one-week summer holiday.

I thought they were completely ridiculous.

Years later, I realised they understood something I’d been getting wrong in business.

The anticipation was part of the experience.

In this episode, I’m sharing what I accidentally taught me about marketing, and why we don’t need to wait until something is finished before we start talking about it.

In this Episode, I cover:

  • Why anticipation matters in marketing.

  • Giving your ideas enough runway.

  • Why last-minute marketing can feel salesy.

  • Rethinking what it means to be “ready”.

  • Taking some of the pressure off selling.
