As I have started to share more of my journey of launching CUENTO Marketing (opens the CUENTO site in a new tab) with Katie Jackson, I have discovered a few things about sharing…

Sharing is a double edged sword, some will try and tear you down by declaring you as a self-promoter, while others will reach out and thank you for the story helped push them in the right direction. A post from Gary Vaynerchuk changed my perspective on sharing two years ago, when I realized I cared more about helping one person than I did about a label that I know is false.

Sharing is cyclical, the more that is shared the more other people have reached out to share with me. The more I offered to help, the more others have offered to help us in building our business. The sharing of our journey has created a little community of people cheering us on and that energy is beyond motivating. I can’t thank you enough and please keep sharing stories with us.

Lastly, sharing is a major part of what we are doing everyday with our partners. As consultants I knew we would be leaning on our experiences to help our partners grow, but I underestimated how many stories from our past would be relevant to help our partners in all different industries overcome challenges. The quote in the image was shared with me by a friend, and it truly sums up why I love sharing as much as I do now.

There is nothing like using stories from your past to help someone else improve, and by sharing with our partners and on social media we have been able to experience this at scale and that is an incredible feeling.
