Your First Thousand Clients with Mitch Russo

Sally Hogshead is a branding expert and pioneer of the groundbreaking Fascination Advantage® system. Sally skyrocketed to the top of the advertising profession in her early 20s. By age 24, she was the most award-winning advertising copywriter in the U.S. Her campaigns for brands such as MINI Cooper, Nike, Godiva and Coca-Cola have fascinated millions of consumers.
