Is A Small Business Marketing Coach Required?
December 10, 2009 by Stacy42
If you are a small business owner and are consistently finding yourself short of leads and revenue you might need a marketing coach. Just like a sports coach, a small business marketing coach holds you accountable to get your marketing done.
Do any of these sounds like you:
- Your marketing efforts are sporadic and inconsistent.
- You have typically relied on referrals for your business, but find them hard to come by anymore.
- You find yourself focusing on tactics and don’t have a plan.
- You find you have other business systems but not a marketing system to provide you with consistent leads for your business every month.
If you can relate to any of the above, you are in need of a marketing system. By engaging with a small business marketing consultant you will have a step by step proven process to help you build a marketing system.
The biggest key difference between a marketing coach and a consultant is that a marketing coach helps you with the strategy and you do the leg work. This holds you accountable in taking action and getting results for your small business.
This could be the greatest decision and investment you could make for your small business in the next year. Do you have other systems in your business like HR systems and Accounting systems? Do you have a marketing sytstem? If not, you should in this or any economy.

Hello – the rule of thumb for any business is to spend approx 10% of gross turnover on marketing. Other golden principle is to spread your marketing across as many channels as possible – PR included (press releases about your business to the local papers always attach an interesting and imaginative picture with the release because that helps sell the story – then printed materials, online presence – and yes, we always include 'time' costs in the 10% and that will be appropriate for a smallish start-up business. As long as you know what your day rate is you can estimate and in the end there is nothing more effective than networking to extend broader networks – 'sweat your assets' in other words milk your existing clients for referrals – in a postive way you know 'I guess you like what we do – is there anyone you work with who might also like a meeting about what we do?'
10% – work to that – a good rule
The very best of luck!
