4. Don’t expect “Overnight Success.” Marketing is all about building relationships. They take time. In fact, it has been reported it takes approximately an average of “7 touches” before someone becomes your client. Your marketing strategy is all about filling your “funnel” and keeping it filled.

2. “START” – How many of us get stuck in “analysis paralysis.” I do – I want things to be perfect the first time and I sometimes become overwhelmed with all the ideas and choices to make. Don’t wait to start a marketing strategy. It does not have to be perfect, in fact it won’t be. What I have learnt is that, “it’s a process.” Your marketing strategy will never be done, it will never be perfect, and there will always be changes because as your business grows and develops, your marketing strategy will grow.
3. “Choose a set of simple, effective things to do, and do them consistently.”* The simpler the techniques, the more likely you will be consistent in taking action.
