Grow Your Business with a Marketing Attitude
When you think of marketing, your mind probably goes to things like networking, elevator speeches and e-mail letters.
If you’re like most small business owners you want to do whatever you can to get more clients, and yet it can feel like throwing darts when figuring out what to do.
The first step is to look at yourself. Most business owners are faced with being disorganized and have fears and insecurities that can hold you back in moving forward.
I have experienced all three, but organizational challenges have felt huge and overwhelming at times. Developing a clear and logical 7 step marketing system has helped me to keep things in order and create a plan to follow. Overcoming my fears and insecurities have helped me to know that what I am offering is highly valuable.
In order to make any plan work the first place to begin is to face those inner attitudes and once you are more empowered you will be more successful in your marketing plan.
Hi Kaya,
I just noticed this on your site. I really need tofigure out how all this facebook stuff works but it’s pretty cool to a newbie like me. Your class sounds great. I don’t know if you remember me. I used to own Entrees Made Easy in Hillsboro. I think we met through Dave Chin. I would love to talk with you about how we might create a working relationship. I now help small businesses create affordable on line advertising presence. We do this in a unique way. I’d love to discuss with you, and learn more about what you do.

Hi Karen
Gosh- you have a much better memory than me. I definitely recognized your photo but who is David Chin? Help! Thanks for finding me. Regarding Face book just dig in and get going. One tip I will give you is that if you want to use Face book to grow your business, get rid of everything that is extra- like all the silly little icons, games etc. They are cute for a personal page but they distract from a business page. Also- mention your business in your profile. Good luck. Kaya
