Avoid Costly Mistakes & Build Your Marketing Foundation First With John Wernz (Ep. 462)
You know what marketing is, right? But what about the difference between foundational and growth marketing?
In this episode, Matt Halloran talks to John Wernz, a seasoned marketing expert in financial services. They reveal why knowing the difference is key to marketing success — and why doing foundational vs growth marketing in the right order can save your marketing budget. Spoiler alert: John recommends getting your foundational marketing right before pouring money into growth in order to maximize the leads you generate and ultimately close more business.
Matt and John discuss:
“But so many times, people skip foundational marketing. It drives me bananas. And you don’t have the social proof, and you don’t have the influence — people are going to go to your website, and they’re going to be like, ‘What? No, I’m not ready to work with you.’” – John Wernz
