In this episode of Better Marketing, Marketing Magic in Minutes, I’m breaking down the vital difference between your marketing strategy and your marketing plan.

It’s something many business owners mix up, but understanding the difference can make a massive impact on your results.

When these two aren’t clearly defined, it’s easy to waste time, money, and effort. So, in this episode, I’ll share simple ways to make sure your strategy and plan work hand in hand.

With a clear direction and a solid plan in place, you’ll be able to move from feeling stuck to seeing real, measurable marketing success.

In this episode of Better Marketing: Marketing Magic in Minutes, I’m diving into the importance of marketing metrics, especially for service-based and professional services businesses.

Here’s the thing: if you’re not measuring your marketing, you’re guessing. And guesswork can be dangerous, particularly for small businesses where every pound counts. Without the correct data, it’s easy to waste time, energy, and money on things that aren’t actually moving your business forward.

I’ll be sharing why it’s vital to focus on the metrics that really matter. Not just the surface-level numbers like likes, followers, or views, they might look nice, but they don’t pay the bills. Instead, I’ll show you how to track the results that truly impact your business, like leads, conversions, and customer retention.

You’ll also receive practical tips on identifying the key metrics most relevant to your business, enabling you to make informed decisions and feel more confident about the direction your marketing is taking you.

Ultimately, my message is simple: when you measure what matters, you stop wasting effort on vanity metrics and start building sustainable success.
