If you are online regularly like I am and you wonder how to start writing a post about marketing you head over to Google and search the word marketing.

I got about 25,270,000,000 results (0.72 seconds) from Google when I did a search. Wow right? Now imagine being a small business owner wondering how to get started.

I realize the title above may throw you off but I couldn’t think of a better one. What is Marketing? did cross my mind but that sounds almost too easy.

What Should You Do?

There are so many things you can do as a small business owner to get started with marketing and marketing your business. There really is no one way or thing or system that may be sold to you to get started.

So how do you do it? I could be self serving and say hire a marketing business like mine because that’s the way it works right? No sorry it doesn’t.

I think about this often…

“If the only tool you have is a hammer, you often treat everything as if it were a nail." – Maslow

This is particularly true in marketing

Beware of marketers who see their specialty as the solution to every problem

If they don’t ask questions… run!

What I would tell you though is it reach out to friends, contacts, people you meet at networking events, zoom calls after all with COVID, and begin to think about how marketing can help you.

Engage in some conversations, do some research, be open to feedback and be ready to take that next step in your business.
