No one is good at everything.
When you are a business owner, it can get quite tricky working out what you’re good and what you’re not.
In business, when you have to play the roles of CEO, financial controller, admin and coffee runner, all at the same time, marketing is left usually till last.

I am a small business marketing expert helping business owners leverage what they do and market strategically using tried and tested methods (which cost NOTHING) for PROFIT, to embrace social media, where results are achieved minus the stress, confusion or being overwhelmed.
