Good marketing starts long before anyone talks about social media.
One of the things I hear most often is:
"You ask a lot of questions."
I do... because I've learned that the best marketing recommendations don't come from looking at a website or scrolling through a page.
They come from understanding the business behind them.
When I sit down with a business owner, I want to know things like:
✔️ Why customers choose you.
✔️ What you're trying to achieve.
✔️ Where growth feels stuck.
✔️ What success would actually look like.
Those conversations almost always lead to better decisions.
This carousel shares a few of the questions I ask before recommending anything.
If it resonates with you, I've written a blog that dives a little deeper into why understanding the business always comes before the marketing.
