If you done it, it ain’t bragging.

If you done it, it ain’t bragging.
– Walt Whitman

We’ll excuse the bad grammar for now.

Because… this quote makes a lot of sense.

Sometimes here at Ready to Go Newsletters we hear from people who are afraid to promote themselves.

They say they don’t want to brag.

And that self-promotion doesn’t work.

Here’s the thing:

As Whitman says, if you done it, it ain’t bragging.

So….

Instead of saying how great you are – prove it.

Prove it through your knowledge of the market.

Prove it by telling stories of happy clients.

Because, after all, you are good.

You’ve done it.

…So show ‘em what you done.
