The Cheer Up Marketing Blog
Due to taking a holiday at the start of the month and then half-term, I only had 55 hours to work in the whole of February! Read my February review covering the reality of part-time entrepreneurship. Discover why stepping away from your desk leads to business breakthroughs and how to maintain revenue with less time.
In this transparent, behind-the-scenes breakdown, I reveal the exact time-tracking report that proves you can run a profitable business while capping your work week at just 20 hours. Discover the high-impact activities I prioritise and the time-sinks I cut out, allowing me to master my productivity as a solopreneur and consistently hit my revenue goals without burning out.
I’ve been reviewing 2024 and I think it’s been my most up-and-down year in business yet. There were times when I felt on top of the world and also a big chunk of time where I felt flat and couldn’t seem to find my entrepreneurial groove. Read on for the full breakdown of Highs, Lows and Learnings by quarter.
How do you know that hiring a marketing consultant is the right move for your business? In my experience, a freelance consultant can be the perfect fit for you if you’ve recognised that you need to do more marketing activity to progress your business but you can’t commit to hiring a full-time marketing employee. Read on to discover more benefits.
One of the best pieces of collateral to have in your marketing suite is a case study or testimonial from a happy customer. The more case studies you can write that cover the full range of what you do for your clients, the better placed you will be to convert leads into paying customers. This of course takes some time and effort to do but the reward is worth it.
If you’re a small business owner or manager with a website, you’ve probably heard that having a blog on your site is good for SEO and getting more traffic to your site via Google. Over the years I’ve worked on hundreds of blogs for various businesses and I can confirm it can be a time-consuming task!
