Marketing: Never Take Your Foot Off the Gas Pedal [RR 701] - a podcast by Carm Capriotto, AAP

Key Talking Points



“Using Integration to Supercharge Your Existing Marketing”The residual value of previous content- getting the most out of every picture/video

What should you talk about? Listen to your customer’s questions, answer in the form of a picture/video. Answer 1 question and have 1 month of marketing content. When business is good, don’t take your foot off the marketing pedal- stop stopping. Your business is the average of the highs and lows. Priorities may change but continue to do what works. Instead of slowing down, take a turn instead. Always talk about the culture of your business. 

Email marketing- seeing the email in the inbox without opening it is still successful as a reminder you’re there. People will forget about you. Marketing vs advertising- marketing develops relationships with customers and turns them into friends. Making connections with customers to the shop employees.   

Commitment to community involvement Facebook Ads- don’t put all your eggs in one basket.

“Turn your authentic message into a constant message” Darrin BarneyDon’t wait until the bottom falls out to set your business for success
