The Small Business School Podcast

Why Marketing is Never Free


Listen Later

In this episode, we get into the realities of business expenses and marketing strategies. The financial aspects of your business isn't just about dollars and cents; it's about seizing opportunities, optimizing your business model, and serving your customers better. 

Topics Covered:

  • The misconception that gifting products to influencers is free. Breaking down the hidden costs from product costs to shipping fees.
  • The two major currencies in marketing: cash and time. What is the best investment for your business?
  • Assign dollar values to their time. By doing so, they make more informed decisions about how to allocate their time and prioritize tasks efficiently. 
  • The importance of evaluating and adapting your business model in response to changing industry dynamics, high shipping costs, and other challenges.
  • Proactively seek opportunities for disruption within their industries, as disruption can lead to growth and sustainability.
