5 Easy Digital Marketing Steps to Get Your New Business Noticed

Congratulations, you have decided to start a new business!

So, now that you have decided to start a new business, what’s next? More than likely you have a lot of questions. If you have done your research and know your next step, that’s great! When I started my business, I had no real experience in marketing and as the saying goes, “you don’t know what you don’t know”. I thought I knew what I was doing, until I started setting things up. Suddenly I realized I didn’t have a clue. I always say you are never too old to learn something new and that’s what I did. I read everything I could to learn how to build my website and promote my business.

While the “do it yourself” option isn’t for everyone, some people are like me in that they like to do it themselves. One of the problems when I finally decided that I needed to learn a few things was the terminology used in articles that I read was over my head. I felt like I had no clue what they were saying! Now I see other new business owners struggling with the same thing. With that in mind, I decided to start blog series to help other people who may be in the same boat and explain things in terms a novice would understand.

In this 5-part series we will cover:

  1. What’s in a name – Things to consider before deciding on a business name
  2. Building a website – Platform and branding/design options along with recommendations
  3. Setting up your social media – Which networks should you be one and what info to include
  4. Marketing automation platforms– Why you need one
  5. Other marketing – What, when, and how

Your business is unique. What works for me or for someone else may not be the best option for you.

Your business is unique. What works for me or for someone else may not be the best option for you. It’s difficult for someone to recommend what is best for your business until they have taken the time to familiarize themselves with the details of your specific business.
