Welcome to 2026, everyone, and to How to Grow Your Business in 2026, and thank you for choosing to be here.
Before we get into the “how”, let me start with a simple truth that’s uncomfortable… but incredibly useful:
Most business owners don’t have a marketing problem.
They have a consistency problem.
They’ve tried a bit of everything:
- A website refresh
- A newsletter
- Some social media posts
- A networking event, or two
- Maybe a few ads.
But it feels random. And random marketing gives you random results: a lead one week, nothing the next, and a diary that’s either too quiet or full of the wrong conversations.
So today’s live stream is called “Let’s Make 2026 Your Best Year Ever” because I want you to walk away with something most people never build:
A repeatable, measurable system that creates:
-
More leads
-
More meetings
-
More sales
-
And it does it in a way that you can actually keep up, even when you’re busy.
I’m Steve Mills, and for 30+ years my work has been helping SMEs stop guessing and start growing fast by focusing on what works, measuring it, and doubling down.
And this isn’t theory.
I’ve seen businesses turn results around fast — like Solways Printers, who needed “an extra £20,000 per month” and hit £8,500 in sales the very next day from a simple follow-up strategy, then went on to double the business in 9 months.
I’ve seen lead generation jump from 15 to 45 leads in three weeks.
And I’ve had clients report significant improvements in leads including a 64.7% increase in average monthly leads in just three months.
So here’s the promise I’m making you at 1pm on 5th January:
If you stay with me, you’ll leave with a clear plan to create more demand in 2026 — without relying on hope, luck, or “wasting money on advertising that does not work”.
What we’re covering today
We’ll move through three practical parts:
-
More Leads
How to consistently attract the right people (not just “more traffic”). -
More Meetings
How to turn interest into booked conversations — without chasing. -
More Sales
How to convert more of the meetings you already have into revenue — with a simple, repeatable follow-up framework.
And as we go, I’ll give you quick wins you can implement immediately — plus the deeper system you can build into your weekly routine so results compound through the year.
Alright — if you’re ready, let’s make 2026 the year your marketing stops being a cost… and starts becoming an asset.
