KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Consistency in content creation and posting is crucial for success on social media platforms, as it helps in building a strong personal brand and engaging with the audience effectively.
• Courtney advises not to let the fear of rejection hinder progress, emphasising the need to persevere and not take rejection personally in the entrepreneurial journey.
• Staying true to one's niche and expertise, rather than expanding internationally, can lead to better results and success in the long run, as it allows for a deeper understanding and specialisation in a specific area.
• In cases of brand misalignment or controversial situations, maintaining a strategic approach, staying quiet when necessary, and aligning with brands that share similar values are essential for reputation management and recovery.
