I know you’re overwhelmed with marketing your business. It’s tough, especially when you're not getting any results. There’s so much to know and do- where do you even start?
Let me be honest here- it doesn't matter what tools you use to market your
business, if you don't know your goals, your message or your buyer persona (ideal
customer), you'll NEVER grow.
I know that sounds harsh, but if people don't connect with you, they won't buy from
you. If what you're saying and posting is not resonating with your ideal clients,
they're not going to pay attention = a business in distress.
When you know what your goals are, who you're talking to and how to talk to them,
it not only makes marketing more EFFECTIVE, but it makes it more EFFICIENT! You
know what to say, when to say it and how to say it! You'll see better results and save
TIME!
This guide + workbook is designed to give you a SOLID foundation for your marketing strategy. Many people skip these steps and that's why their marketing is INEFFECTIVE.
I started my first entrepreneurial journey in 2007 with my husband. We decided to start an organic farm & micro-brewery in the Cascade Mountains of the Pacific Northwest.
During the seven years that we ran Acadian Farms & Brewery, I was in charge of all things marketing- everything from events, to social media to website design.
Learning + doing everything on my own, I created an SEO-friendly website that reached #1 on Google and utilized the power of social media and influencer outreach to get featured in prominent publications like The Oregonian, Portland Monthly and The Seattle Times, as well as popular craft beer blogs.
After closing our doors due to creating too much traffic (literally), I wanted to take what I learned from the experience and help other small businesses. So I spent the next five years working at digital marketing agencies and expanded my marketing chops by learning the systems, tools and strategies implemented by agencies to achieve massive growth.
And that's what I'm sharing with you- knowledge from both sides! I truly wish that I had a step-by-step strategy to follow when we were growing our business, but there wasn't one.
When I'm not working, you can find me camping with my two kids, husband and rescue dog, running or drinking a glass of wine!
"When I hired Nicole to handle my social media I expected to have to guide her on not only legal writing and legalese, but the specific area of law, as I have had to do in the past with other marketers I've worked with. But from the moment we hired her she took off and blogged and tweeted and posted with minimal input and supervision from the firm and our social media presence has expanded greatly--all because of her skill and expertise!"
"Our social media presence has expanded greatly!"
"Nicole has brought life to my social media! Our views and engagements have increased 100 fold which has lead to a 55% increase in new sales agents joining our firm."
