About this listen

Hi! I’m Leslie Burris — certified coach, mom of 7, and business mentor with over a decade of sales and marketing experience.

I love Jesus.

After years of building online, I’ve learned that true success comes when we partner with God, not when we leave Him out of the process.

On ROOTED BUSINESS, I share practical sales strategies, timeless marketing tips, along with some biblical encouragement to help you confidently tell the world about your products and services — all while glorifying Him.

You’ll also hear behind-the-scenes of my own business journey and the lessons I’ve learned along the way. The good, the hard, and the real.

If you’ve ever felt like you had to “eat the meat and spit out the bones” when learning from mentors who don’t share your faith, this podcast will feel like home.

It’s time to walk in your value, grow an audience boldly, market with confidence, and stay deeply rooted in Christ.

Welcome to ROOTED BUSINESS.

    In this episode, I encourage you to adopt a mindset of curiosity and experimentation when creating content. By letting go of fear and overthinking, and embracing a 'let's just see' attitude, you can discover what works best for you and your audience. I share practical tips and personal experiences that highlight the importance of posting without over-editing, sharing stories, trying new posting times, and being bold and vulnerable. Learn how this mindset can help you break free from indecision and inactivity, and ultimately grow your brand and audience.

I share personal stories and real-life examples to illustrate how staying true to yourself can significantly impact your audience and lead to unexpected opportunities.

Key takeaways include the value of maintaining core values, the potential for multifaceted content, and practical advice on leveraging series-based content to grow your audience. I also reflect on a recent investor dinner that highlighted the deep connections formed through genuine online engagement.
