Why a Traffic-Based Business Model May Not Be Right for You With Jessica Lackey

Social Slowdown: sustainable digital marketing for entrepreneurs

By now we know that what works for one, may not work for another. And in this week's episode, I'm talking with Jessica Lackey all about business models, and how sometimes what makes sense for other people may not make sense for you and your business. Maybe the traffic-based business models that we're sold can actually be less profitable than a lower, slower pace of business.
Jessica Lackey is a strategy and operations advisor who is on a mission to radically disrupt mainstream business culture in an effort to create sustainable businesses with a human-centric approach. With a background in corporate leadership, McKinsey & Company consulting, and a Harvard Business degree, Jessica knows a thing or two about hustle culture and what it feels like to judge success by the bottom line…at all costs.

Now, she combines her deep experience in consulting, Fortune 500 operations leadership, and coaching to help businesses grow without sacrificing the well-being of their clients, team, and community.

• The importance of community and relationship marketing
• The "cult-ish" side of social media (in regards to online business)
• Why you DON'T need to build your business like everyone else
• Business models and the math behind scale
