Have you ever had a great business idea, but when it came down to selling it or getting your product out there you felt stuck? Have you sat down to start promoting your blog and didn’t know where to start? This podcast episode is for you!

7 Tactics for the Marketing Challenged

We were talking to “John The Intern” about how to promote his business and he started telling us how frustrating it can be when you don’t know where to start. Should you just post content and hope they come to your site? Should you reach out to A-List bloggers and hope for a guest post? We sat down this week to discuss our thoughts on the best marketing strategies for new businesses and blogs. We’re far from the best marketers out there, but we thought we could share some strategies for us “non-marketers” that do actually work.

Topics Discussed This Week Include:

-Ways to pinpoint your target market
-How to iterate on the success of your competitors
-Using backlinks to target interview opportunities
-Systematizing your marketing efforts
-Splitting your time between outreach and content creation
