In this candid episode, let's dive into "The Great Divide" between honest, value-based marketing and the ickier tactics that mislead and prey on vulnerable audiences. Vicki opens up about her journey in digital entrepreneurship, the rise of ick marketing, and how she’s built a brand around transparency and integrity.

For digital entrepreneurs, understanding how to communicate authentically is essential, especially when hypey claims like “$100K in a month” overshadow the reality. Vicki explains what makes certain marketing tactics “icky” and why many business owners, knowingly or not, fall into misleading practices. Drawing from her experience, she discusses how true, value-driven marketing focuses on genuine testimonials, education, and the integrity of the product—rather than on exaggerated claims.

From insights on FTC compliance to the ethics of highlighting real value over inflated results, Vicki’s straight talk challenges digital entrepreneurs to lead with integrity. Tune in for strategies to stay true to your values, avoid the hype, and build lasting trust with your audience.
