You’ve sat in classes and masterminds where your ideas were met with stares and strained smiles.
“Ooh that’s really out there” the coach said, while advising everyone to make their hooks tighter and put out hot takes like “people should judge you by your appearance.” (That’s real, btw.)
Good news: That advice was never meant for you.
You already have the creativity, uniqueness, nerve, and talent to stand out online. And you're doing it!
But managing every part of your business alone or with your tiny team is tiring.
And seeing a bunch of beige blondes blow up makes you feel like you’re doing something wrong.
You’re not. And you don’t have to do it alone anymore.
Marketing for Misfits Premium is a monthly marketing mastermind for ambitious weird girls (of all genders) who want to be a legacy without dancing for an algorithm.
You're not...
- Learning “my signature 10 step method for $100 million overnight.”
- Told to post more and yap to camera.
- Abandoned to a Facebook group where the only comments are “where is the Zoom link” and “I’ll keep it brief **writes an Infinite Jest length post about 30 years of trauma**
- Work with driven, brilliant creatives to find collabs, promo swaps, podcast spots, etc
- Connect with complimentary businesses to get new ideas and out of your industry bubble
- Sell your stuff live to a brand new audience

How Does Marketing for Misfits Premium Work?
Connect through the Weird Business Buddy System, live calls every Tuesday, Skool Community Chat,
and the Misfits Bizaar to sell your stuff to a live audience
- Weird Business Buddy System: I personally pair you up with another member of the group. You'll talk one on one (through phone, text, email, whatever's easiest), help each other with a tiny weird marketing task, and make a real connection with a human being.
- Live Calls Every Tuesday at 10am PT/ 1pm ET/ 6pm UK: Get new ways to find your audience from this diverse group of geniuses. Actually speak to other people in the group! Plus, copy feedback and weird marketing coaching to make sure you've detoxed from tech bro garbage and sound uniquely you.
- Misfits Virtual Bazaar: Get a chance for 5-10 minutes to present your products to a live crowd. The Bazaar is part craft fair, part TED Talk, part slumber party where we figuratively braid each others hair. It's QVC for weird girls! I invite my 11,000 subscribers, you show off your stuff, then enjoy all the new sales and subscribers.
- Support Through Skool - Whether you're looking for someone to meet up with for coffee, help deciding on a new piece of software, advice on agents, splitting a booth at a new marketplace, or tasks you want to pay or barter for - put it in the Skool chat. Everyone in the group will see it and anyone interested will reach out. Plus, you get to practice asking for things, something I guarantee you're terrible at. No judgement. Just facts.
Bonus: The Weirdness Way Method
A 60 minute workshop that completely changes your marketing.
Go from "can't I go to the dentist instead?" to "for the first time, it feels like I'm creating for the sake of it."
A real quote from a member who found childlike glee in creating her landing page.
It's efficiency without hustle. Productivity without following a formula.
Find out how to stand out effortlessly...and do it every week with energy to spare.
"Amber is so freaking relatable and has this uncanny ability to get to the bottom of issues where I feel stuck. She makes suggestions, shares stories that make it obvious she's been there, and the fact that I can still do this during weeks when I find it hard to get out of bed, gives me renewed hope in my business."
- Mycala Kembring, Writer/Artist/Creator of the Traversing Tuesday Podcast
Who Is This For?
You're a misfit!
The group features a fun range of industries.
Tarot readers, midlife coaches, goth jewelry makers, witchy journalers, stationary makers, romantasy authors, creatives selling yoga retreats, book influencers, geniuses with newsletters, memoirists, writing coaches, indie publishers, goddesses who make astrology journals, and more.
It's easy to get stuck in your industry bubble and do the same things over and over.
This group will pop the bubble and unleash more weird onto the internet.
What all Misfits have in common...
You're driven to grow your business and insist on making an impact.
You don't need to saved or spoon fed every step.
Yes, you can do everything by yourself, but it's exhausting.
Instead of buckling down and never asking for help, get support from equally ambitious entrepreneurs who refuse to do business like another beige blonde with a blowout or Tim Ferris devotee.
Where we build a village of misfits who naturally help each other grow and sell.
No group project in high school vibes (where you did all the work and watched everyone get an A)
A group where humanity, creativity, and kindness reign supreme.
Because you're done watching assholes succeed in business.
It's your turn to build a legacy.

This mastermind is your jam, even if you...
- Don't have a lot of extra time - We don't either! Efficient and fun are friends here, so you could get a ton from an hour a week.
- Get shy in groups - I once panicked so hard at a party, I walked through the whole house, then out the door to my car without talking to anyone. Whether you're shy and quiet or feel like you talk too much - you'll get along great. The combo of group and one on one pairs gives all introverts, extraverts, and sort-of-both-averts time to shine.
- Aren't in a "weird" business - You don't need to sell Victorian teeth jewelry to fit in. In addition to authors, coaches, and witches, we have accountants, brand designers, and former corporate folks. It's cool if you don't go to Ren Fairs or do photoshoots with skeletons. What matters is that you want to do things differently. In a way led with passion, creativity, and human connection. Ample black eyeliner is a bonus, not a pre-req.
Who is this NOT for?
- Haven't made sales in your business: If you haven't started yet or haven't made a sale, you can join us in the future. This is for businesses in motion that want to build faster without bro energy.
- Hate responding to emails: If you get annoyed every time you get an email, skip this. You'll get an email once a week, plus reminders of live calls.
- Don't respond within 3-4 days: You don't need to be glued to your inbox, but your Weird Business Buddy shouldn't have to wait a week to hear from you. If a "got this, I'll take more time to read in a couple days" can't happen, don't sign up.
- Are a jerk who hates helping people - This never happens, but it's here just in case.
"Working with Amber always feel like you're getting the no bullshit version, and this was no different.
I loved it, even just when I was catching up on replays."

What happens during Marketing for Misfits Premium?
- Loads of new subscribers from your connections in the group
- New sales with techniques you never tried before
- Bevy of new podcast appearances, speaking, and workshop spots lined up
- Creatives you can turn to when your business needs a hand
Wait, who's doing this?
It's me, Amber Petty.
I went from failed actress to failed business owner to 11,000 subscribers and 5 years of making $10K a month at least - all by being more weird.
From speaking in an Irish accent all day on St. Patrick's Day in 2nd grade to liking Phantom of the Opera over the Spice Girls, I've always been the weird one.
As my business grew, I looked for groups that really fit. Though I studied with wonderful people (and still do), it felt like the creative oddballs had no real home.
So I'm making one.
Weird girls in business can truly change the world.
Give people options to buy outside of billion dollar corporations. Create jobs that run on humanity, not "how much can I squeeze out of each worker."
Your business making good money will help you, your family, your community, and who knows how many other people.
And if we do it together? Hot damn.
That's some real, tangible change in the world.
Also, everybody in the group will be fascinating, so it'll be worth it for the Zoom chat alone.
One conversation could earn your money back.
"Amber's messages of showing up as your weird authentic self and making it fun are so refreshing and it's a reminder that there is no right way and that who frickin' cares if you break some made up rule because who in the heck even made up the rule in the first place?!"

Questions? Answers!
When are the live calls?
The Live calls are:
Tuesdays at 10am PT/ 1pm ET/ 6pm UK
Topics switch from a networking call where you're split into groups, coaching calls, Get It Done Hours, copy feedback, and a monthly workshop to hone new marketing skills.
All on Zoom.
The calls will all be recorded if you can't be there live.
Is it worth it if I can't make every call?
Yes. Granted if you never show up for anything, it's not worth it.
But appearing in the Misfits Bazaar alone is worth it. So add everything else? Even if you catch the replays it adds up to way more than $88.
How much is this?
Normally $111 but for this first month it's $88.
If you sign up now, you keep the $88 price as long as you stay a member.
So when everyone's paying $111 in December, you'll be chilling at $88.
Is this only good for Americans?
Nope! We already have members signed up from Ireland, the UK, and the Philippines, so there'll be people from everywhere.
On a similar call, 2 US Expats living in Berlin met on the call. They didn't know each other till Zoom and now they're in person business friends.
Do I need to have a business?
Yes. A business that's making sales. If you want to make more sales - great! But your business needs to be established.
How much money will I make from this group?
I don't know. Possibly nothing. Or, a bunch of people in the group itself could buy your stuff.
Someone just made $100 from responding to a question in the chat.
Or you could meet someone, do an event together and make $10k a piece.
Or you could meet someone, they become your business best friend and you keep each other going when things suck.
Though it doesn't pay off at first, the fact you never quit pays off in dividends. Or you could quit your business the day after signing up.
If you need to make money fast - this is not the group for you.
Yes, we all want to make money fast, but if you're thinking "I need this to work to make rent this month!" - it's not a fit.
I have another question. What should I do?
Email me at Amber@Amberpetty.com and I'm happy to answer anything.
