As a marketer, we know how important it is for you to attract and retain your clients. Although you may be technically dedicated to the company’s marketing efforts, it is common for those working at a small business to wear many hats. Because of this, you may not always be able to solely focus on creating or following through with an annual strategic plan.

And video production is more cost-effective than ever — you can shoot in high-quality, 4K video with your smartphone.

Blogging — when done right — can increase your lead generation by a whopping 67%. It’s common knowledge that blogging is an excellent way to increase sales, so why do many businesses struggle to see results?

Google rankings can make or break your online presence. While not necessary to be the number one result for each and every keyword, it is necessary to show up on the first page of results that are typed into that search bar.

Some even employ the use of ad blockers to filter out all of the irrelevant garbage inundating the Internet.
