How Conscious Collaboration Can Help You Meet Your Business Goals with Chrissanne Long 

Chrissanne is an advocate and believer in what we can accomplish when we come together as like-minded professionals to support one another in our business pursuits. By approaching each relationship in her network as a long-term investment, she de-centers any urgency to close a potential deal. For Chrissanne, fostering a genuine connection is always the priority that ultimately creates an open environment for learning through one another and getting even our most ambitious goals met.   

In today’s episode, we are back together again to sit down with Chrissanne Long, CEO and Co-founder of Maximized Digital Media. This full-service digital marketing agency specializes in website design, social media, and digital advertising. Chrissanne is also a business coach and mastermind facilitator combining knowledge, experience, and passion to help her clients achieve their goals and strategically grow their businesses. She shares with us how her business works, the essential keys to building long-lasting relationships, the beauty and benefits of mastermind work, what to know when building a website, and much more!

“That’s what happens when you’re open to receiving the input of others who might not be in your regular everyday life, but they have something to contribute. You have something to contribute, and everyone works together to achieve a common goal. Then you’ve achieved a mastermind.” – Chrissanne Long
