The SBA reports that 20% of New Businesses Fail in the 1st Year & 50% fail within the first 5 years, and marketing is a commonly listed reason that leads to these rates. This can range from "No Marketing Plan" to "Failure to Market Online" to "No Website and Social Media Presence"
The digital marketing landscape and toolbox that is available to small businesses has grown rapidly over the past 10 years and navigating this world effectively can be a great challenge. This course is designed to help you understand how to approach quickly and effectively establishing the digital footprint for your company or brand online.
We approach this topic in 3 key sections:
- Building Your Marketing Strategy and Foundation
- Establishing Your Digital Footprint
- Expand and Engage to Attract
