Business owners often end up hiring an agency to take care of marketing their business. But outsourcing your marketing often means completely giving up ownership. We often meet business owners who have had a bad experience and feel they have wasted their money.
Moreover, when you hire outside marketing help, you're renting an expert's time. No matter what you're seeking help with - content writing, SEO, advertising, you name it - the engagement eventually comes to an end.
Many business owners realize that there are parts of marketing that they need to own and develop internally. There simply are aspects about their company that can only be captured the right way by someone internally.
However, handling marketing in-house is not easy. Many small business owners don’t have the funds to hire an experienced marketing manager or the knowledge to train and coach a marketing assistant.
You get the best of both worlds when you marry an internal marketing hire with a seasoned marketing consultant. Here's a picture of what that looks like:
The consultant creates the plan, runs the operations of the plan, completes the analysis of results, and keeps your team on track as you're working towards your big goals.
This person knows the intricacies of your business and is directed and trained to execute on this plan and craft messages that align with your strategy. By hiring internally, you build a long-term asset for your business.
But that still brings us to one of the biggest blockers for small business owners—how do you find, hire, train, and manage the right internal marketing person?

"Before this program, I was messily trying to piece together a Marketing Plan for our business. I had a lot of random insight that I just didn’t know how to structure into a cohesive plan. Since starting the Marketing Manager Training Program, I feel much more confident in where our plan is moving, and that it has all the necessary parts for us to be successful. Sara has been incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, answering all my questions and giving helpful feedback. I’m excited to implement the Marketing Plan that I will be leaving this program with."
