A positive mindset is the most important part of a successful business. Dorothy Illson is a digital marketing and data expert who shares her journey through finding her self-worth and accepting her success. The number one most important aspect of running a business is being able to have a positive mindset and truly believing you are worthy of success. In order to properly manage a business, you need to reflect on spendings and data, and these superficial problems will be impossible to tackle without the right mindset. Data tells the story of your business and offers insight, and we need to step back and analyze it with a logical business mindset, rather than an emotional reaction that is driven by negativity. Take some time to self-reflect, and find the positive mindset that you need to drive your business forward with success!

We all have that little voice in the pit of our stomach that works tirelessly to steer us towards choices that place us on a path of true happiness and fulfillment. Yet, when push comes to shove, our gut instincts tend to get drowned out by a more ‘rational' voice… the voice of our conscious minds that often tell us to fall in line and stay on the straight and narrow of belief systems that have been widely accepted by society or popular culture. On today's episode, Dorothy Illson, founder of the Do Well, Do Good Podcast, sits down to share her story about the power behind following her gut and staying true to herself. She explains exactly how she went from turning in her letter of resignation at a Fortune 500 company just two weeks after her college graduation, to taking a MASSIVE leap of faith, joining the start-up world, and ultimately founding her company Needle Eye's Media. Dorothy breaks down the power behind asking ourselves better questions, and how we can build a stronger mindset to help us create great success and leverage it as a contribution to the world. This is a great episode for anyone who is curious about how to step up and confidently take a stand for what you really want out of life, and how to go after it.

Curt interviews Dorothy Illson, founder of Needle’s Eye Media and host of the Do Well and Do Good Podccast. Dorothy left her corporate career in “Big Accounting” to chart her own path and become an entrepreneur and digital strategist. She and Curt discuss what it’s like to chart freedom in your career, and the struggles and joys of entrepreneurship.

This week on the show I’m joined by Dorothy Illson. After discovering personal development and diving in, she shifted from a career path as an accountant, which is traditionally a stable career path. And instead became the third employee at an early stage startup, which is not at all a stable path. So after helping scale the business to 6 million in revenue in three and a half years, Dorothy actually left and founded a full-service digital marketing agency called Needles Media. She is now the premier media buying partner for large personal brands and other digital product businesses. She’s also the host of “Do Well & Do Good.”

In this episode, Lance and Dorothy Illson talk about pursuing dreams, taking leaps of faith, working on the right mindset, and digital and social media marketing trends. Dorothy is a digital marketer and podcaster who aims to show people that creating massive financial success and making a massive impact can go hand in hand. Dorothy abandoned her planned career as an accountant to work for a start-up after college. After helping to scale that business from 0 to $6M in annual revenue in its first 3 years, Dorothy founded Needle's Eye Media - a full-service Facebook & Instagram advertising agency. Leveraging Dorothy's innate talent for data-wrangling, Needle's Eye Media has become the premier media buying partner for prominent personal brands and other digital product businesses seeking improved customer acquisition with paid traffic. In 2018 Dorothy launched the podcast Do Well & Do Good, which tells the stories of people who have not only created success professionally, but who have chosen to leverage that success to create a positive impact on the world. The two brands go hand in hand, as she gives back 10% of Needle's Eye Media's profits to charities voted on each month by her podcast audience. Dorothy tells listeners: “Treat everything that happens to you as if it is the best possible thing that can happen to you.”IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:How to prepare for your journey towards your dreamsHow to develop the right mindset in businessCore habits that will build the right mindsetLatest trends in digital and social media marketingConnect with Dorothy IllsonFollow Dorothy on Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram.Follow Dorothy on her website.Follow Do Well Do Good Podcast.Connect with Lance:Subscribe on Messenger to get the latest episodes and tips straight to your inbox!

Dorothy Illson is a speaker, entrepreneur, and founder of Needle’s Eye Media, an advertising management agency that helps customers get the most online visibility for their dollar. She also hosts Do Well & Do Good, a podcast where she asks other entrepreneurs how they’ve achieved professional and personal success while still contributing to the community. Dorothy believes financial growth is a vital ingredient to having a positive effect on the world at large. In this episode, Dorothy explains how she found her calling in the world of ad management and explains how she was able to bring in clients when starting her business. She also dishes some important tips for making the most of your own Facebook ads. The Finer Details of This Episode: How Dorothy’s agency helps its clients get on top of their ad game and optimize the traffic coming to their sites. What is “paid traffic” and what does it mean to a rising entrepreneur? Why Dorothy realized accounting wasn’t the career for her and what drew her to the world of ad management. The reason a good grasp of numbers can go a longer way than good copy in the advertising game. Dorothy’s secret for finding clients in the early days of her agency. Dorothy’s core lessons for entrepreneurs looking to implement Facebook ads into their marketing strategy. Why you never want to send paid traffic directly to your homepage. Building an avatar for your ideal customer to understand what they want and how you can best deliver it. Why big brands with big advertising budgets are surprisingly not as effective with regards to paid traffic. The reason Dorothy trusts personal brands more than the larger, more well-known ones. Quotes: “I was able to really get experience and taste a lot of different areas of marketing.” “You really need to let your ego quiet down a little bit and just have the guts to ask for help.” “The best way to build a business is by creating raving fans out of your clients and customers who are then gonna tell people about you.” “It’s not just about getting clients, it’s about delivering to an extremely high level so that those clients are gonna keep coming and coming.” “Give people what you promised them and make it so valuable that they are gonna start to build that Know, Like and Trust factor that’s gonna lead to a sale.” “The brands that I trust the most are the brands built around people.” Mentions: Moink, AdSkills, Chris Harder, Gerard Adams Guest Links:Needle’s Eye Media - https://www.needleseyemedia.com/ Do Well & Do Good - http://dowellanddogood.co/ Dorothy on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/dorothyillson/ Dorothy on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/dorothyillson/   Visit Brandon’s website at www.BrandsOnBrandsOnBrands.com Join the Brand Growth Community on Facebook at www.brandonbrands.com/community And please leave a rating and review on iTunes!

This special episode comes from Puerto Rico Mastermind, where Alli met amazing womenpreneurs whose businesses have a positive impact on the world. If you want to start a podcast and you need the next level of inspiration, coming to this event is one of the most impactful thing you can do.   Gena: Holistic Dentistry Mercury fillings are implicated in the development of all sorts of diseases, like diabetes and Alzheimer’s. Women exposed to them have a higher risk of having a child with ADHD and neurological issues. Dr. Gena Schultheis used to be a traditional dentist, prescribing mercury fillings. Now, she takes them out and helps people back to health through detoxing, a healthy diet and holistic dentistry.   How can you detox from mercury? You have to go beyond diet, because mercury embeds itself in organs and is hard to get rid of. Chelation, saunas, Epsom salts, detoxifying supplements, chlorella and cilantro are all good options - the best thing is to work with a practitioner who will give you a personalized protocol. To find a holistic dentist, check out the Holistic Dental Association, or the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology.   Why Gena loves Puerto Rico Mastermind Learning from one another, working together to turn the world into a collaborative supportive place.     Sue: Co-creation as a key to success   Sue Dyer is president of OrgMetrics LLC. When she started working in construction, there was no spirit of collaboration - at her first meeting there was a fist fight in the bathroom! But for the last 40 years, Sue has been changing the culture of construction from combative to collaborative. Because let’s face it, we can achieve much more when we work together. In fact, you can be 40% more successful when you collaborate.   Why Sue loves Puerto Rico Mastermind Co-creation is what you need to up-level every aspect of your life. That’s why masterminds work. When you collaborate and co-create, you’re accessing a collective wisdom that you don’t connect with on your own.     Dorothy - Your success helps the world Dorothy Illson helps her clients bust through limiting beliefs about money, increase their income, and maximize their impact. Many of us feel shame about wanting to be successful and make money. But there shouldn’t be shame in that - the more abundance you create in your life, the more leverage you have to make an impact on the world.   The desire to make money and to make a positive difference are not opposing ambitions. You need one to achieve the other. If you’re miserable and struggling financially, you don’t have the emotional space or time to go out and make an impact in the world.   Dorothy promotes for-purpose businesses, where giving back is built into the business model. This is something consumers are already beginning to demand - they want to buy from a brand that makes the world a better place.   We love her podcast Do Well and Do Good.   Dorothy’s Take Away from the Puerto Rico Mastermind Don’t be afraid to be vulnerable and authentic. That’s the most powerful thing you can do.     Bonus Travel Tip Alli’s must-have when traveling is Organify green juice powder. This was a life-saver in Puerto Rico. When you travel, you don’t know where the next juice bar will be. Or if there’s a Whole Foods. Or if there will even BE any healthy options. But with jet lag, travel stress, and lack of sleep, you need to give your body as many nutrients as possible to stay well and make the most of your time. Organifi is a detoxifying blend herbs and vegetables like chlorella, moringa, spirulina, mint, beets, matcha, wheatgrass, ashwagandha, turmeric, coconut water and more. Perfect for jumpstarting your energy… and kicking those wine hangovers to the curb.

Dorothy Illson was all set for her dream job as an accountant at PwC, when two weeks after graduation, she called them up and informed them that she would not be coming. Instead, she opened up her marketing agency, Needle’s Eye Media, at the age of 25, growing it to multiple six figures in the first year of business. In this episode, Dorothy gives away all the secrets of how to build and run a successful online funnel for webinars, as well as explaining the ins and outs of retargeting campaigns. She also shares her struggle of combining her podcast- Do Well and Do Good with her agency, Needle’s Eye Media, to create a cohesive and memorable personal brand.   Teaser:    My Guest: Dorothy Illson Dorothy began her career as the 3rd employee at a startup in the meal subscription space which grew from $0 to $6M in annual revenue over the next 3.5 years, giving Dorothy a crash course in what it looks like to successfully scale a business.

In this episode, host Dorothy Illson introduces the Do Well & Do Good podcast, a show designed to tell the inspiring stories of individuals who have not only achieved professional and financial success, but who have chosen to leverage that success to increase their positive impact on the world. In this episode, Dorothy discusses her personal journey in pursuing wealth as well as her desire to work for the greater good of other people. If you want financial freedom and also want to make a difference in the world, this is the show for you. Show Notes: Guests will share their stories of how they achieved financial success and how they are making a difference. Wealth is the greatest multiplier in your ability to maximize your positive impact on the world and to experience a truly fulfilled life. Many people have warped beliefs that if you are driven by money you aren’t a good person. Humans have a fundamental need for contribution. We all want to help others and make an impact. Dorothy started her first business at age 6, Dorothy’s Dog Walking Service. She discovered personal development in college, and it led her to give up her planned career as an accountant and work for a startup instead. Dorothy started a business in 2017 and achieved new levels of financial success, but wanted greater purpose and meaning in her work. This drive to find greater meaning and to make a difference is what inspired the creation of the Do Well & Do Good podcast. In the Do Well & Do Good free Facebook community, Dorothy will share tips, ideas, resources and more on how to increase your income & impact.
