About this listen

 Welcome to Sequence Over Strategy, a show about small business entrepreneurship. Michelle Warner's goal is to help you find and trust your own sequence of actions rather than follow someone else's theoretical strategy. In every episode she takes a real challenge or question shared by real entrepreneurs like you, and figures out the right next action to take. Together, you'll wrestle with the problem, examining your business to find solutions. And every time you'll walk away with a single tool or framework, you can apply to your own business. So stop looking for playbooks. Stop chasing strategy. Don't search for all the answers before you act. Act to find your answers.2024 Michelle Warner Economics Leadership Management & Leadership Marketing Marketing & Sales

  • The Real Job of Engagement

    The Real Job of Engagement
    Jan 15 2026

    Are you mistaking engagement for more information and unintentionally overwhelming the people who already trust you?

    In this episode of Sequence Over Strategy, Michelle unpacks why engagement isn’t about teaching more, explaining more, or proving yourself again. It’s about helping people slow down, process what they already know, and feel confident moving forward. Drawing from real questions that came up during her Build Your Relationship Funnel intensive, she explains why peer-to-peer industry gatherings can be one of the most effective ways to bridge awareness and sales, especially in B2B.

  • Why Fewer Connections Win

    Why Fewer Connections Win
    Jan 1 2026

    Networking isn’t broken—but the way most people think about it might be. In this episode of Sequence Over Strategy, Michelle challenges the idea that success requires hundreds of connections and explains why a small number of the right relationships can have a far bigger impact. She breaks down why intentional networking is about sequence, not scale, how quality beats quantity every time, and why real business growth comes from depth, not constant outreach.

  • Rethinking Reciprocity in Business

    Rethinking Reciprocity in Business
    Dec 18 2025

    So many business owners hesitate to reach out for collaborations or referrals because they’re convinced they don’t have enough to offer in return. Maybe your audience feels too small, maybe you can’t refer clients back, or maybe it just feels awkward to ask without a perfectly equal trade lined up. In this episode of Sequence Over Strategy, Michelle breaks down why that way of thinking is holding you back and why real reciprocity rarely looks like a simple one-for-one exchange.
