Ever felt like the marketing you're doing bears an uncanny resemblance to that phrase "throwing spaghetti at the wall to see if it sticks?"
I can relate.
For me, it looked like this:
Eleventy billion ideas (that's a real number btw),
not enough time,
and the budget? Well, that’s a whole other story.But despite slogging away, it can sometimes seem like nothing moves the needle.
Or if that needle is moving, it’s ever so slowly.It's taken me many years to work out how that you can't afford to throw 'marketing spaghetti' at the wall, UNTIL, you've got consistent sales and revenue coming in.
It's just not financially doable otherwise.If you've ever felt like YOUR marketing doesn't work, here's how to fix that.
Even better, you can get through this episode quicker than it takes to boil a pot of noodles.

When you’re in the thick of running a business, it’s easy to feel like you’re the first/only person going through a particular problem.
Trust me. I’ve seen it all. After auditing literally thousands of retail/ecom/product businesses, I know that there are a handful of hurdles, brick walls, and cliffs that you’re likely to encounter.
Instead of me sharing what I think those are, I invited Daniel, one of my Strategy Coaches, to come on the show and share with you, firsthand, the obstacles he sees in so many of the businesses we work with.
Daniel is no ordinary business advisor and strategy coach. He's a serial entrepreneur who's built multiple successful 7-figure companies, from a hearing protection brand for kids to a thriving pickleball equipment business.
I asked Daniel to come onto the podcast and share the biggest obstacles he’s seen with the retail and e-commerce brands we work with, and of course, how we’ve solved them.
One of the biggest takeaways for me was how focused Daniel is on empowering business owners to understand their numbers. As Daniel put it, "knowledge is power" when it comes to the financial health of your business. Too many business owners get caught up in the day-to-day and lose sight of the bigger picture.
But Daniel showed how diving deep into your profit and loss statements, inventory levels, and other key metrics can unlock a whole new level of growth. It's not about being a math genius - it's about having the courage to face those numbers head-on, understand them, and USE them to drive strategic decisions.
He also went through several other areas (you’ll have to listen to find out what they are) and perhaps most importantly, Daniel emphasized the power of having the right support system around you. As he put it, "Being a business owner is a very unique journey" - one that's filled with both highs and lows.
Surrounding yourself with other people who "get it" can make all the difference. Whether it's a trusted mentor, a mastermind group, or even just a few like-minded peers, tapping into that collective wisdom and experience can be a total game-changer.
Honestly, I could go on and on about the insights packed into this episode. But the bottom line is, if you're a retail or e-commerce business owner looking to take your company to the next level, you need to give this a listen.
Daniel's story is a testament to the power of persistence, resilience, and a willingness to take calculated risks. And his advice could be the missing piece that helps you break through to new heights of success.
So what are you waiting for? Click here to tune in to the full episode now. Your business will thank you.

Would you let an ads manager spend thousands of dollars every month, even though you’re not getting any new customers or sales?
How about having to fire a friend or family member, because they're just not what you need to move you to the next level?
Or, would you let a poor-performing employee, bankrupt your business?
Believe it or not, these are just 3 scenarios I’ve encountered with retail & ecom business owners over the last couple of weeks, that could potentially bankrupt the business.
But even having the threat of going bankrupt hanging over your head, isn't always been to push a business owner to make a decision.
So it got me thinking.
If bankrupting your business and losing everything that you’ve worked so hard for isn’t enough of a motivator, what is?Join me as I walk you through a real-life scenario of what happens when you make this hiring mistake, plus the advice I gave and of course the happily-ever-after (or is it?).

I walked into a cute little boutique the other day. The store windows were gorgeous and there was a pink top on the mannequin which had caught my eye.
Excited that I had stumbled across a piece of clothing that was my "season" (Clear Spring if you were wondering - SOOOO hard to find with all the muted colorways everywhere), I entered the shop and... this probably sounds a little woo-woo,
But the energy was just...
All
Wrong
I couldn't pinpoint it at the time, but as I quickly walked around looking for the pink shirt (which I never did find), it all felt a little off.
So off is exactly what I did.
I headed out of that store, with my money in my wallet.Fast forward a couple of weeks later, and I was chatting with Dean and he was telling me about how music makes such a difference for retail stores.
It was during this conversation, that it all clicked.
I didn't realise it at the time, but that "cute little boutique" felt dead, because there was no music - no ambiance.But the real kicker came when Dean told me that stores with THE RIGHT playlist, typically see an increase in sales of TEN PERCENT.
Say what now?
10% more sales, just for knowing what to play?
I'm all for that.But how do you know "what's right", so you can cash in?
