Why Lack Of A Sales Process Can Explode Your Marketing Budget

from Engaging Marketeer · host Darren Jamieson

More leads will not fix a broken business. Spending money on SEO, ads or networking without a proper sales process is one of the fastest ways to burn through a marketing budget and see nothing in return. In today's episode of The Engaging Marketeer, discover why marketing should never come first, how slow or inconsistent follow ups are doing more damage than you think, and why so many businesses blame marketing when the real issue is happening after the enquiry comes in. If referrals have dried up, leads have gone cold and work feels unpredictable, this episode will make you rethink your sales process. About your host: Darren has worked within digital marketing since the last century, and was the first in-house web designer for video games retailer GAME in the UK, known as Electronics Boutique in the States.
