#1: Why Marketing Feels Harder as Your Business Grows (& What to Do About It)
from The Simple Truth About Marketing · host Kelly Rice, Fractional CMO
As a service-based business grows, marketing usually gets harder to manage. There is more activity, more money being spent, and more people involved, but it can still be hard to see what is actually driving leads, revenue, or return on investment.In this episode, Kelly Rice talks through why this happens for small businesses doing $3M to $10M in annual revenue. Most have a website, ads, SEO, social media, and email in place, but those pieces were usually added one at a time instead of being built to work together.When marketing is built piece-by-piece, the activity can make sense on its own, but the full picture is harder to see. That is why so many marketing decisions still fall back on the business owner. Without a clear line between effort and outcome, marketing decisions start to feel more like guessing than planning.Send us Fan Mail
