💡 Meny's Practical Pointers 1. Tell the truth. The most powerful marketing tool you have is honesty. When you're real, people remember you. 2. Action beats ideas. You can plan all day, but progress starts the moment you take the first step. 3. Prepare before the moment. Success rarely happens by luck, it happens because you were ready when the door opened. 4. Build credibility through consistency. Show up, do good work, and let results talk louder than promises. 5. Build credibility through consistency.
