The offboarding survey (in Google Forms) asks how the author felt about working with editor and anything editor can improve. It also lets the author leave a testimonial for the editor.
Reframing her marketing helped Nicole in these ways:
๐ Inbound client opportunities through her newsletter
๐ Increased community through LinkedIn and social media
๐ Marketing became a manageable part of my business
๐ Whatโs one thing youโd like to do to become more visible to clients?
๐ Where do your clients currently find you?
๐ Whatโs something you already do to contribute to the editorial community?
๐ How could you build on something youโre already doing?
Become a community resource by sharing what you know!

The solution? Build a marketing ecosystem, not a campaign.
Action: Create community, not content.
For example:
๐ง Editor meetings yield new thinking
๐ง Client experiences yield better strategies
๐ง Reading teaches new craft skills
Problem: Clients don't see me because...
๐ซฃ I don't know what to say
๐ซฃ I don't know where to say it
๐ซฃ I don't have time to create anything new
๐ซฃ Self-promotion feels bad
The solution? Build a marketing ecosystem, not a campaign.
