My Marketing Mix
In the coming shows I’m going to take you through how to plan and implement your own marketing program. To give you an idea of what that could look like for I’ll share my activities as an example.
I’ve been in business for 8 years so my activities have changed drastically over time. Your own program will depend very much on where you are in your business. Make sure you don’t compare yourself to me or others - every business situation a little bit different.
I promote my business heavily online. There are multiple reasons for this including that it's quite effective. Let's not overlook the fact that I do this for a living! Not only do I try to lead by example, I also love what I do and it is my genius.
Your marketing mix will be determined by your time, talents, and goals among other factors.
