"I hadn’t had the opportunity to hear you speak previously although I had heard a ton of great things about you. All of the things I had heard didn’t even come close to the actual presentation! What a GREAT job you did on a limited time schedule. I was busily taking notes and trying not to miss catching any of the nuggets you were throwing in our direction. Thank you – thank you – thank you!! It is always wonderful for us “old dogs” to hear marketing reminders that encourage us to re-visit our own policies and procedures. Wonderful." ~Chris Baidenmann
"Ronnie is a dynamic speaker who engages her audience from start to finish. Her real life examples were spot on with helping us connect the dots on her marketing concepts. She cleverly keeps it simple and yet powerful." ~Kelly Perkins
When people tell me that they "hate" marketing, they usually expect me to be shocked, defensive, or angry, so they are often surprised that I not only sympathize, but that I totally understand.
You see, I also hate the same things that they think are marketing: hucksterism, manipulation, and/or relentless, merciless self-promotion.
Since so many folks are confused about what marketing is (and whether or not they do it), let me offer a definition of marketing for small business:
Marketing is the exact art and subtle science of attracting, acquiring, and retaining great clients profitably. Nothing evil about that, right? And what you also need to know is that...
The purpose of marketing is revenue and profit. (Surprised?)
The process of marketing is relationships. (That's a relief!)
The practice of marketing focuses on market, message, and media. (This is where most business owners need some help...)
The path of marketing is: know, like, trust, try, buy, refer. (Right!)
Great marketing feels (from the customer standpoint) terrific: like excitement about cool new stuff, relief that a problem can be solved, rewarding when the customer service is helpful, friendly, and fast.
But bad marketing feels yucky. Marketing that is intrusive, abrasive, or aggressive, spewed at the world without regard to interest or permission of the recipient, gives all marketing a bad name. And like you, I hate that!
It might surprise some folks to know that uninvited pest marketers aren't the only bad marketers out there--many truly decent, well-meaning businesses fail their customers and prospects by not marketing enough, well enough, or appropriately. The solution to this problem is to get educated, and to learn how to market correctly--with integrity, intention, and innovation.
At the DIY Marketing Center, our mission is to educate business owners about what marketing is, and teach them how to do it right. Because if they don't know what marketing is, and how to do right, they are bound to get it wrong, which hurts their business.
Do You Hate Bad Marketing? Me, too! (c) 2013 Veronika Noize. All rights reserved.
Facilitated by professional coach Veronika Noize, this workshop is for small business owners and job seekers who want to enjoy the benefits of connection through networking, but don't know where to start, or have been frustrated by all the time and energy invested in networking with very few results to show for it all.

What attendees said about recent meetings:
"Amazing! Practical, attainable, funny and inspiring. Thank you for the class and the time and energy you have put in to gather the knowledge."
"I went to school to learn how to market myself, and I learned more here than I did in all my classes."
"Great information delivered in a very entertaining way. I appreciate your honesty in your examples."
"Hi, Veronika (with a K!), thanks so much for all the helpful info in your Friday's networking class. I tend to build up things in my mind, like networking, to make them a lot worse than they really are. Your ideas are simple and do-able, and I appreciate that. I've also made some changes to my "elevator speech" too based on what I learned."
"Very informative. Kept my attention and gave me more confidence."
Do you hate to "sell"--but desperately need sales now?
Are you confident about your product or service,
but nervous about "selling"?
What if you could close more sales...comfortably, easily, and confidently?
For many small business owners, sales is necessary but not necessarily easy!
If sales (or lack of sales), your comfort level with selling or simply know how to sell is holding you back, consider Jim Lorentzen's Soft Selling Sales Training.
Because if what you need is a closing model, a sales script that works (and you're comfortable with!), and the know-how to close the sale, you'll get all that plus tons more in Jim Lorentzen's Soft Selling Sales Training classes.
This sales training is perfect for introverts, business owners who hate to sell or are new to selling--your confidence and comfort with sales will go through the ROOF!
What would your bottom line look like if you closed more sales THIS MONTH?
(That's how it worked for me!)
How would that feel to you (it felt GREAT to me)?
