HOW TO STOP WASTING YOUR MONEY ON MARKETING

Are you sick of spending money on marketing but not getting results? 

Have you been stung by agencies who promised results but delivered tumbleweed? 

Does thinking about marketing make your brain hurt?

Too many agencies overcomplicate things when they really don't need to. Pushing you toward the latest marketing trends, using jargon that makes no sense, telling you that you need to be doing everything on every platform.

That's all well and good if it gets results, but most of the time, it doesn't. Because effective marketing is about one simple thing – connecting with your customers.

So that's what we're teaching you in this course – how to connect with your customers.

And that means getting back to basics...

Is this course right for you?

Most business owners don't have time to manage both their marketing and their business. But hiring a consultant costs money – money that a lot of businesses just don't have.

That's why we created this first-stage course. It allows you to focus on your marketing at a time and pace that's convenient for you, so it doesn't get in the way of running your business. And it means you don't need to start paying for one-on-one support until you've figured out what support you actually need.  

You still benefit from our decades of experience and knowledge of marketing – we're there with you throughout the course. And once you've finished, you'll have the foundations in place to make your marketing work.

So if you've felt overwhelmed by marketing in the past, you've lost your way when it comes to marketing, or you're just not seeing the results you'd expect from your effort, then this course is for you.
