Resources, Consultation, and Speaker Services Offered by Hues Integrated

In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks with the CEO of Hughes Integrated, Rob Hughes.

Rob started the conversation by highlighting a common issue many businesses grapple with - ineffective marketing strategies and wasteful spending. He likened this to branding cattle with multiple branding irons, leading to confusion rather than clarity.

Instead of this scattered approach, Rob advocates for a relationship-first strategy. This method focuses on connecting with the audience and nurturing that relationship rather than bombarding them with mixed messages.

Rob also shared another case study involving a local luxury outdoor living space installer, ABC Landscaping. Their name was not aligned with their services, confusing potential clients. By pivoting their messaging to focus on their ideal audience, ABC Landscaping saw a significant increase in qualified leads.

Rob currently leads and manages a growing team at Hughes Integrated, consisting of six internal staff members and a nationwide network of contractors. He emphasizes that they are looking for organizations that value win-win-win relationships, indicating a bright future for Hughes Integrated.
