Where to Start When You Have Too Many Ideas
6 simple and straightforward tips for marketing Your brand.
You’ve got a million ideas for marketing your business, but every time you sit down to execute, the overwhelm sets in. Sound familiar? You’re not alone! The trick is to start small, stay focused, and build momentum. Here are some no-nonsense tips to help you cut through the noise and get moving:
1. Pick ONE Goal for the Next 30 Days
Do you want more brand awareness? More leads? More engagement on social media? Choose one clear goal and make every effort count toward it. No scattered efforts—just focused action.
2. Start With What You Can Maintain
Consistency beats perfection. If you can only post once a week, do that. If you can only send one email a month, start there. Don’t set yourself (or your clients) up for disappointment with an unsustainable plan.
3. Repurpose, Don’t Reinvent
You don’t have to create brand-new content every time. Turn a blog post into a LinkedIn article, a social post into an email, or a customer question into a video. Work smarter, not harder.
4. Done Beats Perfect—But Stay On-Brand
Your marketing doesn’t need to be flawless, but it should be clear, professional, and aligned with your brand. Consistency builds trust, so make sure your visuals, messaging, and tone reflect your business.
5. Marketing Is an Experiment—Track What Works
There are lots of great data to inform your marketing strategies. And you should use them. But ultimately, each decision you make is an experiment between your brand and your ideal audience. Test, learn, and adjust. If possible, ask clients how they found you or track analytics—good data leads to smarter decisions.
6. Have Fun With It
Marketing should feel like an extension of your brand—not a chore. If you hate what you’re doing, your audience will feel it. Find what excites you and lean into that.
Final Thought: Just Start
The hardest part is getting out of your head and taking action. Start small, stay focused, and remember: marketing is a marathon, not a sprint.
