You just got promoted (something you worked your ass off for) but now everyone on your team treats you differently. The vibe has shifted from friendly to tense, and people who used to joke around are suddenly cold or distant. I don’t want to overexplain or shrink myself just to make everyone comfortable again. How do you handle that shift without feeling like you have to apologize?

You don’t owe anyone an apology for outgrowing your role. If they can’t handle your success, that’s their insecurity, not yours. Lead with integrity and let the dust settle.

That’s a shame, I experienced something similar once. Give it time and people should adjust and if they don’t, take it as a positive that you’re in a better position than they are - and deservedly too!

My Darling, you Walk BOLDLY in that new position you have been blessed with. Walk through the OPEN DOOR that has been set before you. Walk with your head high, in your confidence, because you are Fearfully and Wonderfully Made.

What you’re experiencing are the masks falling off ; and individuals’ true intentions, motive of the heart’s feelings towards you. Do not let it sway or deter you to even for a SECOND, fall off the tracks. Many times, those are roots and fruits of envy and jealousy. People are funny. They want to know your bits and bops, and they’ll keep tabs, but they wish you to do well…Just Not as well as them. But there is no competition. Only within ourselves. We are here to aid, help, foster and lift up those round us. Show them your superhero light.

They also may feel inferior ; in worry-land that you may fire, reprimand) or the discipline and/or changes that may come ; which may in turn reveal their actual work behaviors and capabilities . You stay true to you with honor, integrity and respect for all ( Which I AM SURE YOU DO 🖤🙏 ) ; because you sound lovely and you are affected by this ; because you got heart and you care. Lead with that and trust all will work out for the good and Any persons who are not meant to stay, will be removed. Just like pruning a tree.

YOU GOT THIS !!! GODBLESS Angel

Round or exact numbers on banners/LPs? I was curious about this since in negotiations for example or pricing it's better to have the exact number. But if you have a case study, for example, is it better to say "Client X increased their revenue to 1,000,000 ARR" instead of "Client X increased their revenue to 987,500 ARR" ? Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?

How do y’all deal with people at work who are stuck on stupid? Like they have no idea what they’re talking about and they REFUSE to learn. It’s like they have a god complex or something even with proof, maybe bc of their tenure at the company? Even if there’s valid data backing up that they’re wrong. Maybe it’s bc I’m a type 8 enneagram, but it frustrates the hell out of me!
So any advice would be lovely :)

Facebook Ads after iOS 14 changes.

I'll share my experience and urge you to share yours:

Since iOS 14 changes, Facebook ads isn't the same anymore. Why?

A. >75% iOS users denied tracking. They are no longer tracked across websites/apps. Facebook lost its edge.
B. Targeting and conversion tracking aren't as effective anymore.
C. Many advertisers have been migrating their budgets from Facebook to Apple and Amazon ads.

What's your experience? Let's all learn.

Interesting. Let’s see if the uptick In cases continues to drive an uptick in hospitalizations and then in fatalities. Depends on how many of the cases are incidental or in very young people not prone to severe cases. But either way, look at the hospital capacity utilization figures! This is the untold story. Were we bending the curve to avoid unnecessary deaths due to overcrowded hospitals, or were we bending the curve to buy time for treatments and vaccine, or just to slow fatalities?
