One of the most important aspects of building a business today is building your personal brand with it. Whether you are wanting to build trust, develop relationships, or be a leader in your industry, making a name for yourself is essential. But how do you accomplish this?

As a business owner, there is no question about it, your business is your pride and joy. You’re familiar with the feeling of “wearing all the hats.” You’ve juggled the finances, dabbled with marketing, generated all the sales and you’ve structured the business development process. The truth is, nobody knows your business quite like you. 

I once heard the analogy that starting a business is like solving a Rubik’s cube and it knocked me off my feet with its accuracy. As the words rolled off the strangers tongue in front of me, I was immediately thrown back to a time where I was working in an overcrowded office/house alongside twelve other dedicated twenty-year-old somethings trying to build nothing into something incredible.

Have you completed your businesses marketing strategy for 2017/18? If you want to hit and execute your sales goals for the coming year then you might want to get onto it. 

If you have left it until now to write your 2017/18 marketing strategy, then you are really hitting a fine line, because there is a lot to be done before executing a powerful, deliberate marketing campaign in July that will see your company hit sales targets, connect with customers and accelerate your potential in the marketing for the year to come.

The landscape and overall persona of our society has changed dramatically. Lately, businesses are searching adamantly for answers as it comes to employee retention. Business managers across the globe are seeing turnover rates rising higher and higher. Interns, employees, and prospective employees seem to be rather disengaged when it comes to their jobs. I can’t tell you how or where this started, but I can tell you how this is impacting the workplace.  

Marketing is a challenging department for any business. Unless you are the sole provider of a product, good marketing is what will set you apart from the competition. It is what let’s your customers and prospects know what the latest and greatest is at your company. Traditional marketing was slightly above the accuracy of searching for Gold. However, now we are able to move past this technological gap and enter the race for complete transparency across your marketing agenda.

Driving massive brand awareness can be a powerful tactic in marketing, but true value is derived in the quality of who you are targeting. Marketing isn’t just a form of spreading awareness and news regarding products and services, but rather a science. Understanding how to build your marketing around a relevant and engaged audience is what will drive business success.

We’ve all been there, when you buy something at a cheaper price and later find out that you made a very bad choice. Whether you are buying a product or a service, quality comes at a price. The perfect storm of ‘cheap and efficient’ hardly ever coincide, and the same theory applies for marketing. Invest in a marketing team that cares about you, not your contract.
