We are honored to have had Daria Malin of Boost Strategic Coaching and author of Hands-On Marketing; The Small Business-Owner’s Guide to Advertising & Branding as our first guest on the podcast. Daria has spoken to both Awesome Accelerator groups in the past so we knew first hand how valuable her knowledge of sales and marketing is.
In this episode, Daria shares her approach to developing clear, concise messaging that is tailored to the different relationships that are key to your business. We discuss messaging to the end customer as an obvious key stakeholder but what about other groups such as suppliers and retailers? Listen to learn how you can use the same tool to develop effective messaging in all areas of your business. Plus Daria sprinkles in a few other hot marketing tips throughout.
Enjoy!
