Lots of business owners will claim to know nothing about marketing.
For eight years, I’ve asked business owners to define marketing in their own words.
Here are a few of the responses I’ve received:
• Demonstrating expertise. Being top of mind. Being relevant.
• Generating awareness of your brand.
• Getting our name out there and increasing sales.
• Be consistent in sharing your brand’s story repeatedly but in different ways and through different platforms.
• Finding people who are willing to embrace the change I want to make.
What they are all saying is that marketing is telling a story to the appropriate audience.
Sure, marketing is more than that. But it’s not anything less than that.
