We see the same thing every September with businesses across North Essex, from Great Dunmow to Braintree to Bishop's Stortford. A quieter summer, then suddenly everyone's busy again and marketing gets squeezed into whatever time is left. The businesses that cope best tend to have support already in place before things get hectic, rather than scrambling to catch up once they're in the middle of it.

Does business pick up or quiet down for you as we head into autumn?

Something we hear a lot from local business owners this time of year: "I know exactly what needs doing with my marketing, I just haven't got the time to do it." That's honestly where we're most useful. Not just pointing out what needs sorting, but actually getting on and doing it, so it's off your plate. If that sounds familiar, let's have a chat.

What's the marketing job you know needs doing but never seem to have time for?

Quick one for anyone who set up their Google Business Profile once and hasn't touched it since! Out of date hours, old photos, reviews that never got a reply. Small things, but they add up. It's an easy one to fix, and September's a good time to get it sorted before things get busy again.

When did you last look at your Google Business Profile properly?

Posting consistently on social media is not the same as having a strategy. It's a common mix-up, and an understandable one. Posting feels productive, so it's easy to assume it's working.

The businesses that get real value from social media usually have someone thinking about what each post is for, not just filling a gap in the calendar. If social media has become another job on your list rather than something that's actually bringing in enquiries, September is a good time to hand it to someone who can think about it properly.

Do you know which of your recent posts actually led to an enquiry?

A few weeks ago we shared a post about why your website needs regular attention, not just a one-off build. A fair few of you told us you had a look and spotted things that needed sorting! If that's you, September is a good time to actually do something about it rather than let it slide for another year. You don't have to tackle it alone. Read our latest blog for some simple insights to get you started.

Did you spot anything on your own site that needs updating?

September always sneaks up on us, doesn't it? One minute it's summer, the next you're back to full diaries and a to-do list that's somehow grown while you weren't looking. If "sort the website" or "get the marketing organised" has been sitting on that list since before the summer, now's a good time to actually do something about it. You can grab a slot directly in our diary for a proper chat, no pressure, just a conversation.

What's the one marketing job that's been waiting for "when things calm down"? (Be honest, they never really do!)

Is your website actively supporting your business, or is it simply sitting online?

Social media is not just about posting for the sake of it.

It should help your business stay visible, build relationships and encourage people to take the next step.

Here’s a quick check-in:
Are you posting consistently?
Are you speaking to your ideal customer?
Are you showing the people behind the business?
Are you using clear calls to action?
Are you checking what content performs best?

If social media keeps falling to the bottom of your list, we can help you create a clear and manageable plan.
