Marketing can be tough for tradesmen and small business owners. Balancing marketing efforts and finding new customers with the day-to-day workload can be tricky but its important to keep a regular flow of potential customers.

As a trades person or small business with limited resources and know-how, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.

Can you relate to any of these issues?

1. Limited Budget

A tight budget is a common issue. Without the funds for big campaigns, it can feel like you’re stuck.

2. Lack of Marketing Knowledge

You’re a pro at your trade, but marketing? Not so much. It’s easy to miss out on opportunities if you’re not sure what you’re doing.

3. Time Constraints

Running a small business means juggling many tasks, leaving little time for marketing.

4. Competition

The digital age has made it easier for everyone to advertise, but it also means more competition.  Finding a marketing method that helps you stand out from the crowd is essential.

5. No Marketing Plan

A scattergun approach to finding new customers only works for so long.  Having a realistic marketing plan that you can manage will help you to gain a consistent flow of new potential customers.

6. Managing Leads

Attracting customers is great, but turning them into paying clients and keeping them is another story.

These issues are common amongst small business owners and trades people alike.  You most likely didn’t expect to be wearing a marketing hat when you started out, but you now understand it’s an essential part of your business. 

The constant battle to ensure you have enough new leads whilst working in the business day-to-day can be overwhelming.  It’s a bit of a chicken and egg situation!
