Lies Sold By the Online “Industry”

Can you tell the difference between the truth and the lies.

I’ve been around a hot minute in the online space. For reference, I started my Women’s Entrepreneur Network Facebook Group 8 years ago, in 2015, and I was active online for at least a year before that.

The problem is that if you have no-one to sell to, and nobody knows what you’re selling, and if your connections are not even remotely close to what you’re selling, it is hard to make money.
