  Congrats, friend! You’re ready to take your business to the next level. So, which next step will best get you there? You’ve sorted your product out, but sales aren’t as high as you’d like them to be. More people need to hear about how your product or service can help them. It’s time to double down on marketing and get the word out!You could focus on so many different areas when thinking about digital marketing (content marketing, social media, and email, just to name a few). But the bottom line is that you must start consistently creating and distributing valuable, relevant content. When you craft content that offers a solution to your customers' and clients’ problems, you’ll increase sales, cut costs, and build brand loyalty. Yep, you heard right - a strong marketing plan, when executed, will make your inbox light up with Stripe notifications. Your biggest challenge is consistency. As a small business owner, you’re wearing all of the hats. And even if you’ve been able to outsource a role or two, you’ve still got a lot on your plate. But you’re driven and motivated to do what it takes to take your business to the next level – even if that means taking a weekend to figure out a marketing plan you can stick to.“Content builds relationships.

But the bottom line is you must deliberately craft an experience that will have your customers coming back to buy from you againYour biggest challenge is regularly talking with customers.

And the only way to have your finger on the pulse of your company.Because you’re driven and motivated to do what it takes to take your business to the next level – you’ll block off time in your schedule to talk to customers.
