What if business success didn’t require algorithm hacking, funnel gymnastics, or becoming a full-time digital marketer?
In this conversation, Scott Perry of Creative on Purpose shares how purpose-driven solopreneurs, authors, creatives, coaches, and freelancers can build a business that funds and fits their ideal Lifestyle — without sacrificing their craft, integrity, or sanity.
We talk about defining success on your own terms, choosing the right “enough,” escaping the platform-building trap, and practicing **Be a Blessing Marketing** — a generous, trust-based way to attract the right people without being weird, salesy, or manipulative.
If you’re tired of chasing attention and ready to do work that matters with people you care about, this conversation is for you.
