Faith-Led Founders | Small Business Marketing, Systems and Leadership https://faith-ledfounders.podbean.com Welcome to the Faith Led Founders Podcast. This show is for Christian entrepreneurs and small business owners who want to grow a successful business without the overwhelm.

I'm Lauren, a marketing strategist and business coach with over a decade of experience leading marketing efforts and developing strong brands. This podcast is designed to help faith-led founders shift from marketing chaos to clarity by simplifying marketing, building systems that support real growth, and leading businesses that honor God.

And while God will surely help you grow the business he's given you, it also needs a strategy behind it!

You don’t need more platforms, more content, or more complicated funnels. What you actually need is the right marketing focus.

We're going to talk about:

  • The rise of AI and what that means for you
  • How focusing on more platforms is an outdated strategy

2026 is the year to get ahead of business growth and grow with purpose, so if you're ready to make some shifts, get focused on what really matters this year and build intentionally, then this episode you won't want to miss!

I pray this episode blesses you!
