In this episode, Keith Kalfas speaks on the importance of developing effective marketing strategies for small businesses, emphasizing the role of networking and attending live events to gain insights. He discusses his seven steps to marketing business which include taking advantage of Google My Business, adopting price transparency, downloading the MailChimp app for email marketing, and making use of ringless voicemail for retargeting existing clients. Keith further emphasizes the need for outsourcing tasks like website building or graphics design to virtual assistants and the importance of delegating tasks to knowledgeable parties rather than attempting to master all roles individually. By being transparent, consistent, and constantly engaging with customers, he suggests businesses can effectively raise their profiles and increase their clientele.

"Success grows from nurturing the low-hanging fruit. Retarget your existing clients first; they're the seeds of your future harvest. Stay on their minds, show gratitude, and offer value consistently. Like a well-tended garden, your efforts will yield abundant returns."
