Not every business owner enjoys marketing, but it’s necessary if you want to grow your business. However, you can make marketing work for you, even make it enjoyable, if you adopt a different approach. Marketing can feel overwhelming if you think you need to implement every marketing strategy and be everywhere all the time. There are several options and opportunities, but you can choose what aligns with you and your business.
In this episode of the Sassy Strategist podcast, host Kim Dawson interviews Kristi Mitchell, Marketing Strategist, who shares insight on how to create a custom marketing strategy that works for you and your goals. She talks about using pull marketing rather than push marketing strategy, especially as it relates to social media. Kristi also shares inspiration for creating lead magnets, overlooked marketing strategies that generate good ROI, and why it’s so important to have an overall marketing strategy before hiring specialists.
