Are you getting comfortable?



If you do not see any difference in your business after all the branding effort you put in, it could be because you are doing things that makes you comfortable.

If you want to progress, you have to learn to be comfortable with what makes you uncomfortable. Then you are pushing and challenging yourself as a marketer, as a business owner. That’s how you make progress.

What will bring progress?

How much do you work?



It’s good to take pride in your work. Heck, I am a huge proponent of it and even came up with a silly paper on how to do it.

But it’s also important to watch your health. Sleep is an important component. 

My team and I have been there before – sleep deprivation in order to deliver work to the company. On hindsight perhaps some form of moderation of our work ethics would be better for our health – both physical and mental – then.

I know it is difficult, but as a manager you can learn to assign to others, cut meetings short, have less meetings, say “no” to unproductive meets or if you aren't required excuse yourself. Perhaps even re-look at the SOP of the company.

You need to rest to be productive. Sleep especially.

How much sleep are you getting?

Is there a cheaper way?



There are no cheap ways to build a brand especially if you want a big brand. Building a brand takes investment. You already know that but you refuse to believe it.

How much do you need to build a big brand? A lot is an easy answer. But it wouldn't be a lie even though it’s an easy answer. Huge investments in money, talent and time. You also know that already.

What are you looking at?



Management attention is a very expensive resource. That is why people in management must use their time wisely. If you sit in a management position in a company, please do not waste time on your small unilateral wet-dream project. Do not justify that it is big, that you will use it as an example of how it should work to other divisions. It distracts finite resources from the important things management and senior leaders need to look into. 

Do you know your job?

What can you do?



The Corinthians were told, “"Everything is permissible, but not everything builds up.” I think it applies to your marketing as well.

You can do anything and everything you deem fit for your brand. Just remember not everything is beneficial to your brand or bring the sort of benefits you want to your brand.

I would look into opportunity cost in terms of time, effort, compounded benefits and budget before deciding.

Why aren’t you getting results?



You can start with these two. One, you are not being effective, which means doing the right things. Two, you are not being efficient, which means doing things right.

Seems obvious but not many people are willing to look into their own dirt. So, it’s not so obvious. If it is then we will all be doing great marketing.

How did you build your customer base?



One at a time I am sure. 

That’s how you build your web visitors as well or your Facebook or whatever. One at a time. If you spend money expanding your customer base like with advertising and sales promotion, or improving your product, the same thing happens on the net.

The speed may have changed but the principle is the same.

How do you think you can build your visitors base?
