Why Every Small Business Needs a Marketing Coach
Taking Control of Your Marketing Without Breaking the Bank
Running a small business is no small feat. Between managing day-to-day operations, keeping customers happy, and planning for growth, marketing often falls by the wayside. Many business owners either struggle to find the time to focus on it or feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of options available. Hiring a full-service marketing agency may be out of reach financially, and doing it all alone can lead to inconsistent efforts and wasted budgets. That’s where a Marketing Coach comes in.
What is a Marketing Coach?
A Marketing Coach is not a traditional agency or a one-off consultant who leaves you with a plan and no clue how to implement it. Instead, a coach works alongside you as a strategic advisor, guiding you through the process of building a strong, effective marketing strategy that you can execute yourself. It’s about empowerment—helping you take control of your marketing with confidence and clarity, rather than relying on expensive agencies or making guesses in the dark.
How a Marketing Coach Can Help Your Business
1. A Tailored Strategy Just for You
Every business is unique, and your marketing should be too. As your coach, I work with you to build a personalised strategy that aligns with your business goals, target audience, and industry. We create a shared document to develop a clear, actionable marketing plan that you can follow step by step.
2. Access to Proven Templates & Tools
Over the years, I’ve developed hundreds of tried-and-tested marketing templates covering everything from content planning to social media strategy, email marketing, and more. Instead of starting from scratch, you’ll have access to these valuable resources, customised to fit your needs.
3. Ongoing Guidance & Support
Unlike traditional consultants who leave you to figure things out after the initial strategy session, I provide ongoing support. You’ll have a coach to turn to whenever you hit a roadblock, need feedback, or want a second opinion on a marketing decision.
4. Expert Execution When You Need It
Sometimes, you need an expert touch. Whether it’s refining a social media post, crafting a compelling email, or preparing a presentation, I can step in and help execute key elements when required. The best part? There’s no commitment to a full-service contract—just support when you need it.
Keeping Marketing Affordable & Transparent
Many small businesses hesitate to invest in marketing because of hidden fees, unclear pricing, and long-term contracts. My goal is to make marketing accessible and easy. That’s why I charge a simple, flat rate of $160 per hour—no matter what. Whether you need strategy development, a coaching session, content creation, or presentation support, it’s all the same cost. No surprises, no hidden fees—just expert guidance at an affordable price.
