The Small Business Big Marketing Podcast with Tim Reid

In this episode of Small Business Big Marketing you will hear Luke gush (often uncontrollably) as we speak to Ben and Eugene, a couple of blokes who have got their heads and business well and truly around the online marketing world. Owners of the Melbourne business Noble Samuri, the boys reveal how you can find your way to the top of Google with some basic understanding of key words....why a key word isn't a key word....plus you'll hear about an amazing 30-day FREE program that takes you step-by-step through how to make your first dollar online. BUT, even more importantly, at least in Tim's eyes (!!) is the launch of A HEALTHY APPROACH TO MARKETING - a five-day marketing and well-being retreat held in Bali in April 2010 and facilitated entirely by Tim. And, as a listener, if you register now (and there's only 10 spots available) Luke and Tim will produce FREE a 20 minute episode of SMALL BUSINESS BIG MARKETING focussed 100% on solving marketing challenges for your business. This is our Spotlight product and normally costs $497!

Whilst we both (one of us more than the other) show our juvenile (make that immature!) side during our time with The Bra Queen, we think you'll find this interview bursting even more than usual with marketing goodness.

You'll find out how she created some market research that achieved more than 1,000 responses, how she's positioned her business to dominate a niche plus you'll be reminded of the importance of social media to any small business's marketing mix.

It's about time. Not since show 4 have we been blessed with the presence of a female. Although some would argue that Luke can be a bit of a girl sometimes! Today we chat with Michelle Skoglund, a breath of fresh air in the real estate industry. Michelle opened up an Agency called Aqua, a real estate agency that's more like a premium clothing brand than a place that sells property. Having learnt all she knows from the likes of Qantas and Hyatt Hotels, not only has she created a beautiful brand, but her customer service is second to none. The result...in just 12-months she's built a business that is the market leader in it's area. Tune in and hear how she does it.
