Rather than just rush to create content cause you feel like that's what you should do, like have the strategy first before you just tackle creating content." – Tyler Basu "Don't like, just put out content cause you think it's helpful or valuable or whatever and then see who it attracts. Like, start with the end in mind and ask yourself, 'who is my favorite kind of person to work with? What's the best client that I can get from my product or service that I have?' and then answer that question." – Tyler Basu   Resources mentioned in the episode:Influence and ScaleRich Dad Poor Dad by Robert KiyosakiChatting with ChampionsThe 7 Habits of Highly Effective PeopleBuilt to Sell   You can connect with Tyler on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram.
