Today's ever-evolving marketplace presents some serious challenges for business owners.
We live in a digital-first world; today’s social currency is trust (and it’s in short supply!). This in turn presents business owners with a number of challenges when it comes to marketing our brands and communicating with prospective clients and customers.
KEY MESSAGE: We need to be pragmatic — what’s worked in the past probably won’t work now (although there are some truisms that carry through e.g. human stories, helpfulness, thought provocation, openness and transparency etc - these will be themes we touch on throughout this series).
Onwards!
~ Trevor
