Discover ways to make yourself a better and more efficient business owner!
Consistency in marketing is essential for small business growth, surpassing the effectiveness of intense, one-time campaigns. By maintaining steady, authentic communication and follow-ups, entrepreneurs build trust and turn casual interactions into loyal customer relationships. This approach emphasizes sustained engagement over aggressive sales tactics, fostering genuine connections and enhancing sales success.
Katie Froehlich of White Oak Music Hall reminds us that most confirmed sales require 3–5 follow-ups - not once or twice, but a series of touchpoints that build trust, clarify needs, and demonstrate your expertise.
