Summary

Have you ever gone to write the "About Me" section on your website, or write an Instagram caption, and you just draw a blank? There's a white page with a blinking cursor and your brain is just not working. So, you hop on over to another business owner's page to see how she does it. Before you know it, you have great ideas for your content!

 

Well, guess what? That's most likely plagiarism and that's illegal. So often it starts out innocent and TRUST US, WE GET IT! We've all messed up in this area to one extent or another. But, that doesn't make it any less illegal or dangerous to you and your business.

 

Today's episode gets us a little FIRED UP. This is a touchy topic and we have a LOT to say on this. 

 

We're covering WHY plagiarism and copying is so detrimental to your business and break it down into practical ways to tell if you're copying or being inspired by something. If you struggle to tell the line between copying and getting inspiration, listen up!
