How Strong Is Your Marketing Foundation?

Most business owners incorrectly focus on the “second floor” when it comes to marketing: the tactics. They get a website, engage someone they know to do some social media posting, and so on. But they are just dabbling, says Mary Honan, founder of For Marketing Matters LLC.

What business owners really need to know, she maintains, is that there are 13 foundational elements that have to be in place before they start wandering around the second floor (a.k.a. marketing tactics).
