Yesterday at BookPeople, Erin Hoy joined us for our monthly Morning Mingle to talk personal branding and PR ✨

The takeaway: your differentiator isn't your topic, it's YOU. Someone else can talk about the same thing and it won't land the same way. Owning your methodology and personality is what makes you a "category of one."

This is what Morning Mingles are all about: real conversation, real takeaways, and a room full of people who get it

📅 Up next: September Happy Hour, Sept 2nd, 5:30-7:30pm @ Sour Duck Market. Register on our website!
