This post is a bit more on the emotional side for me.

It's been about four months since the passing of my business mentor, and recently I have been recalling a lot of what he would say.

One of the things he used to say to prospects that would turn him down or say they need to think about it is, "you know, I feel I need to apologize to you. I didn't do a good job conveying the value we will deliver for you."

And often, the prospect would look at him confused.

He would continue, "but if I could just ask you one question, what's going to change?"

And then he would pause.

"I'm going to walk out of that door, and you who came to me with a problem will continue living with that same problem. Nothing is going to change for you."

And that's such a harsh truth.

Another week has passed.

Are you any closer to your revenue goals? Are you farther away?

We all understand that you can't keep doing the same thing repeatedly, expecting a different result.

So I leave you with this question.

"What's going to change?"

Maybe, you know you need to make that marketing decision, but you are afraid.

Fear makes a terrible companion.

I want to encourage you today to make that leap.

Go for it!

Have a great weekend!

One of the biggest assets a small business currently possesses is its ๐ฐ๐ž๐›๐ฌ๐ข๐ญ๐ž.

Your website is the place where you centralize all of your business information and marketing messages.

It's where all of your other marketing efforts should drive interested customers.

Additionally, your website allows you to have more control as a business owner.

It gives you a home online and a platform to tell potential clients about your business.

You can let potential clients know what you do, why you do it and who you are.

Your website is like a digital salesperson, but instead of working 40 hours a week and operating during business hours, ๐ข๐ญโ€™๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐จ๐ซ๐ค๐ข๐ง๐  ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ’ ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฌ ๐š ๐๐š๐ฒ, ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ง ๐๐š๐ฒ๐ฌ ๐š ๐ฐ๐ž๐ž๐ค.

This makes Instagram a very important platform.

Instagram is a visual social media platform where your business can easily connect with existing and prospective customers.

As a small business, you need efficient but straightforward methods of reaching your audience at low costs.

Sharing detailed photos and videos about the business, staff, and customers on Instagram helps engage your customers effectively.

With this, you can showcase your brand's ๐ฎ๐ง๐ข๐ช๐ฎ๐ž๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ while differentiating your business from the rest.

Businesses can raise brand awareness by keeping an active presence and posting at least ๐จ๐ง๐œ๐ž ๐š ๐๐š๐ฒ.

Regardless of the size of your business, you should want to be found on the first page of Google search results.

If you want your business to get discovered by targeted and potential customers, then using AdWords is the best choice that you can make.

Google AdWords is highly measurable, so you won't have to be i๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐๐š๐ซ๐ค about what works and what doesn't.

If someone interacts with your ad, youโ€™ll know.

By seeing which ads get clicks and which ones donโ€™t, youโ€™ll also quickly see where to invest in your campaign. That, in turn, can boost the ๐ซ๐ž๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง ๐จ๐ง ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ข๐ง๐ฏ๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ.

"I got so many leads I thought I was getting scammed." - (new client we just brought on)

We officially launched the campaign on March 18th.

Since that date, we have generated ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ• ๐ง๐ž๐ฐ ๐ฅ๐ž๐š๐๐ฌ for this client.

Crazy thing is, this doesn't even include phone calls.

By the way, this isn't selling ice cream cones.

This client will be selling $30,000+ projects and people are aware it's that expensive before they ever fill out the form submission.

Obviously, this doesn't happen every time, ๐›๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ข๐ญ'๐ฌ ๐ก๐š๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ž๐ง๐ข๐ง๐  ๐จ๐Ÿ๐ญ๐ž๐ง ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฎ๐ฌ.

As we discussed before, reviews are so important for your business.

In fact, nearly ๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ–% of consumers have read reviews to determine the quality of a local business.

People are using search engines like Google to find the businesses they need.

To get in front of these customers, you can optimize your content to rank higher on search engines.

๐๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ก๐จ๐ฐ?

Google's review algorithm focuses on:

1. The number of reviews you have
2. The speed in which you receive reviews
3. The various sources your reviews come from

In Googleโ€™s pursuit to deliver the most relevant and beneficial results for local searches, they not only want to know what your business does but how your business is perceived.

Many small business owners donโ€™t see the need to invest in an effective business website.

However, theyโ€™re currently missing out on an incredible source of revenue.

A small business ๐ง๐ž๐ž๐๐ฌ a website to drive business in todayโ€™s digital world.

Without a website, you give up much, if not most, of your potential business because consumers will ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐›๐ž ๐š๐›๐ฅ๐ž ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฅ๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ง ๐š๐ง๐ฒ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐  about you or your businessโ€™s offerings.

If not for anything else, a website will show your audience that you really do exist.

Customers will seek you out online and having a website is one of the criteria for determining trustworthiness.

One of the best things about investing in a business website is how it continues to generate value for you ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ง ๐ฒ๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ฌ ๐š๐Ÿ๐ญ๐ž๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎโ€™๐ฏ๐ž ๐œ๐ซ๐ž๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐ข๐ญ.

Social media is valuable for businesses of any size or industry.

Not only that, but the number of social users willing to buy from you skyrockets if you use social media not just for publishing, but for ๐š๐œ๐ญ๐ฎ๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ž๐ง๐ ๐š๐ ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฌ๐จ๐œ๐ข๐š๐ฅ ๐ฆ๐ž๐๐ข๐š ๐š๐ฎ๐๐ข๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž.

In fact, ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ% more likely to purchase from a brand after a positive experience on social.

Thatโ€™s because engaging with your audience on social is critical.

By interacting with your audience in a conversational manner you are opening dialogue.

This allows you to address questions, concerns or acknowledge praise and gives your audience the opportunity to learn more about you.

This in turn helps you learn about your customers building ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ and providing ๐ž๐ฑ๐œ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐œ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ๐จ๐ฆ๐ž๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ž๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ž.

All marketing, ultimately, is about building trust which builds relationships.

Hence, the most useful forms of marketing are those which help to form connections and build long-lasting relationships between brands, customers, and potential customers.

Opening an email is more of a personal commitment than scrolling past an ad on a social media timeline.

The person who clicks on your email is immediately committed to and engaged with your content.

Email is a channel for one-to-one communication. In order to effectively communicate via email, you need to take advantage of that.

Email marketing allows you to ๐›๐ฎ๐ข๐ฅ๐ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฅ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐ก๐ข๐ฉ๐ฌ with leads, customers and past customers.
