Todays episode was originally recorded and broadcast on the FamilyPreneur podcast in 2022 and because the content was so relevant to Just Marketing I am re-releasing it for you today. Also, April is Autism Awareness Month, so another great reason to revisit this topic!
In this episode I will introduce Brianne Leeson and we’ll have a conversation around Autistic communication and the way that Autistic brains work. Your marketing is reaching an audience that includes Autistic people and so learning more about what Autism is and isn't and how to better accommodate Autistic people, can help us market more inclusively.
