Think digital marketing and entrepreneurship... but FUN as heck!
I talk to a savvy, growth-minded, established online business owners looking for sharp, often overlooked marketing tactics — stuff that cuts through noise and makes you go wait, what?!
Come along on my online business journey as I build Brandmagnetic.com... I'm your untraditional host, Mariana Henninger -- an EMMY® award-winning director turned *online empire builder* and this show is me, documenting the wins, fails and secrets I learn along the way -- keeping it real and holding nothing back.
If you want to be part of my story, the raw, honest and unfiltered journey from nothing to something -- follow this podcast!
In my own lighthearted geriatric millennial mom fashion (!), I share my wins and lessons, tears and laughs, and also interviews with other badass founders along the way, revealing their own secrets to massive success.
It's real, it's raw. It's funny! It's personal. But most importantly, empire secrets are laid bare that will help you in your own business.
If you are looking for a fun online business bestie, you’re in the right place, fellow empire building rockstar. Lesssssgo!
And if you want to ever chat with me directly, just DM me! ✨>> http://instagram.com/brandmagnetic
