What is a marketing plan and how do you create one?
Marketing is a word that has always seemed daunting to me. It seems like a complex system of strategies, platforms etc. that I have no clue how to put together.
As daunting as it might seem at first, it is one task that you should not neglect. A marketing plan is the activities that gets your content and your business in front of your ideal clients and community.
And it is completely tailored to each individual business and it’s goals. It lets your community know who you are, what problems you solve for them and what you offer.
Fortunately, we have an expert on the podcast today to give us some insights into creating a marketing plan ourselves.
Today I am joined by the lovely Katie Costa, Founder and CEO of The Wellness Marketer. She’s a Nutritional Scientist turned Marketing Pro who helps wellpreneurs grow their business online using holistic marketing strategies. She has two science degrees and has been working with health professionals for the last 3 years to help them establish businesses, grow on Instagram, and finally gain the confidence to market themselves online.
She takes us through her entrepreneurial journey and also shares the mistakes she sees clients make but also breaks it down for us and gives the 3 steps to creating a marketing plan in our business.
