Tight budget? Create a marketing strategy for free

In our workshops with small businesses, it is frequently clear that there is little if any budget for marketing. One thing they can do, points out Vanessa Merit Nornberg, is to develop a narrative that becomes a cost-free marketing strategy.

2. Tell your product story
3. Tell your personal story

You can find Vanessa’s article here: why your story should be your marketing strategy
