TAKEAWAYS:
+ Sharing your values, beliefs, and philosophies on current events and how the world operates is important as a business owner because it attracts the right clients to you, and repels those who are not ideal from you.
+ Values and voice are important in business because it backs up how you operate your business and why you do what you do in the way you do it. It makes the action items, intentional, purposeful, and in alignment with how you want to show up in your business.
+ The myth that you’re “just a small business” and that you’ll “share your values when you’re more profitable” is just that, a myth. It’s the foundation of your business and needs to be shared outright in the beginning, as you start to grow and scale your business.
+ It can be scary to share your values and voice at times. Educate yourself so that you can share more intelligently and firmly about the topic. Or if you don’t have the words, but do have an opinion, send your audience to experts in the topic you are discussing.
