Original caption
I struggled with this reality for a long time. Still do. The fact of it is... it doesn't matter how smart you are or how game-changing your service is.... If you can't connect with people - you'll struggle to build a viable business. People buy not just because of your genius, but because people choose to align with you and what you stand for. There are many world changing ideas that have been ditched because the inventor couldn't get people on their side. It's an uncomfortable reality that your personality will make you more money than your intellect. #marketingdigital #businesscoach #leadershipdevelopment #getclients #socialselling #personalbranding
