info_outlineWhat moves the needle for your business? Today we discuss what marketing tasks to prioritize if you want your business to grow and move forward. This includes the adjustments and strategies that will make your brand pop just a little bit more than they did before because, if executed correctly, you’ll stand out more to the part of the crowd that will really like what you have to say. This means leaning into your strengths, attending to where you’re weakest, and ensuring you have a community to reach out to.
In this episode, Brandon discusses five key areas that will move the needle on your business if you put the right kind of focus into them, and explains why simply putting the word out about your business should be the last thing you prioritize.
The Finer Details of This Episode:
- Looking at the traditional “funnel” approach to marketing and how it’s limited when it comes to working with small businesses.
- Why advocacy is where Brandon always starts when he works with a new client.
- How over-delivering can be key to getting you and your customer off on the right foot.
- Figure out what you want to be known for and stand out from the crowd, then from there seek out the tools that will allow you to distinguish yourself.
- Find common ground between your customers and use that to build a community around your business.
- What are you best at right now? Whether it be events, videos or podcasting, lean into that talent for all it’s worth.
- Patch the “bottom of your bucket” by figuring out where your marketing is weakest and doing what you need to do so that it reaches people.
- Lastly, and of least priority, includes broader reach tactics to scale your business awareness
Quotes:
“A lot of times the things to focus on aren’t the first thing on the list.”
“You have to create the experience and the script for them to be able to share your story appropriately.”
“Treating your customers as a community is an important step.”
“How do you get as many people as possible for the lowest possible cost?”
