Are you freaked out about your marketing? Marketing anxiety can come from four places: a lack of knowledge, not using a plan or setting goals, watching your competition too much, and trying to do it all yourself when you just don’t have the time.

In fact, many of the interior designers, home stagers, and workrooms I speak with are in the awkward phase of, “I know what I should be doing, but I don’t have enough time to do it and I feel like it will be too expensive to outsource.”

…So, they freak out about it.

Regardless of is causing your marketing anxiety, today’s episode of The Kate Show will help ease your stress, clear the mental clutter, and drive you back to the basics of marketing - you know- the parts that actually grow your business.

While you’ve been marketing your design, staging, or workroom business online, you’ve likely faced another hurdle: offline marketing. In today’s episode of The Kate Show, I’m shared the four steps to creating an offline marketing strategy that puts you in front of your ideal client, earns their trust, and puts them on your project schedule.

“Marketing takes too much time.”

“I tried ______ to market my business and it didn’t work; I’ll never try it again.”

“If I want results, I need to spend money on ads.”

Ever caught yourself thinking these things? I hear them all the time from interior designers, stagers, and workroom owners. Marketing has been painted as being difficult and expense (mainly because marketing / ad / PR companies want you to justify spending a lot of money with them….just saying).

Here at Socialite, we do things a big differently. The basis of our brand is, “Marketing isn’t magic, but it IS easy.” I live out that philosophy in my business every day, and today on The Kate Show I’m sharing a few ways you can adopt this mindset, too. Once you do, marketing will become less time-consuming, less expensive, and you might actually like it.

I’ll bet you can think of at least one person who talks about themselves…a lot. I’m also sure you’ve noticed how difficult it is to have a relationship with that person. Whether they realize it or not, talking about the subject they know best, themselves, is a great people-repellent. In business, this is also true and not only comes at the expense of potential relationships, but also at a loss of income.

The first thing you say in your website, social media, or email newsletter verbiage makes it clear where your heart is and what your intentions are. It either enhances the rest of your message or voids it.

Are you confused about SEO? Are you worried that your interior design, home staging, or workroom website won’t be found on the first page of Google? Just like social media, SEO has been over-complicated, overthought, and completely blown out of proportion. In fact, SEO anxiety has driven many business owners to spending hundreds of dollars they’ll never get back, all in the hope of “getting on the first page of Google.”
