I Spent 1.5 Years Interviewing Marketing Leaders. These Are The Habits Of The Highest Earners.

Ultimate Books Checklist For Marketers⁠ 📚

Over the past 1.5 years, I’ve interviewed more than 50 marketing leaders, entrepreneurs, and business owners. In this video, I share the five habits that help the highest earners succeed:

Researching – They stay curious and always learn more.

Pitching – They keep putting themselves out there.

Networking – They meet new people and build relationships.

Storytelling – They share their journey to stand out.

Serving – They focus on helping others before themselves.

These habits are simple but powerful. If you want to earn more and grow in your career, this is the place to start.
