LISTENER Q&A:

This week we have listener questions from Sarah in Ottawa, Canada and Randy in San Mateo, CA:

  • Sarah is looking to start a side hustle as a copywriter because she loves to write and uses it in her current day job in the health field. She's heard that LinkedIn is a great resource for copywriters, but she's hesitant to use it for this purpose because she's not sure if it would be appropriate for her to add that she's starting a side hustle as a copywriter while working at her day job. Her question—what is the proper etiquette for someone managing a side hustle with a full-time job?
  • Randy is having issues finding enough people to Beta test his app, and he's wondering what kind of resources are available to someone looking for people to test out their service. For those of you who may not have caught it, we actually featured Randy and his side hustle back in Ep. 154. I think this is a great project that could benefit from traditional PR like Helpareporter.com.

**Tune into the Weekly Recap to hear my responses to Sarah and Randy.
