Common Marketing Mistakes businesses make when considering – How to market a small business in 2025
Many businesses, regardless of size, often stumble in similar areas:
- Neglecting a Clear Marketing Plan: Without a documented strategy, efforts can become disjointed, leading to wasted resources.
- Overlooking Data Analytics: Failing to monitor and analyze marketing metrics can result in missed opportunities for optimisation.
- Ignoring the Power of Branding: Focusing solely on immediate sales without building a brand can limit long-term growth.
- Not maximising the true potential of their current clients. Instead, spending all their time, money and effort trying to win new clients, which is often the most expensive, time-consuming, and least effective form of marketing.
Strategies for 2025
As we look ahead, businesses should consider:
- Embracing Artificial Intelligence: AI can enhance personalisation and efficiency in marketing campaigns.
- Optimising for Voice Search: With the rise of voice-activated devices, tailoring content for voice queries is crucial.
- Leveraging Short-Form Video Content: Platforms like TikTok have popularised concise videos, making them a vital tool for engagement.
Join us as Vicki and I delve deeper into these topics, providing insights to refine your marketing approach for the future.
