My Top 3 Marketing Tips from my chat with Clarissa Rayward:

1. Start blogging as a way to find your voice; and just pretend you’re writing to a friend.
2. Create a personal brand to sit alongside your business brand. 
3. Challenge the conventions of your category; otherwise you’ll end up doing and looking the same as everyone else.
