I'm thrilled to have you join me today as we delve deeper into the crucial foundations of business success.Summary:In this episode, we're shifting our focus to the second key foundation every business owner needs: the visibility strategy.

Consistency is key to maintaining a steady flow of clients and income. Don't rely solely on word of mouth—invest in a multi-layered marketing strategy to reach your target audience effectively.Track and Adapt: Keep a close eye on your marketing efforts and track where your inquiries are coming from. This data will help you refine your approach and allocate resources to the most effective channels.Closing Thoughts:Thank you for tuning in to today's episode!
