I call today’s idea the Look Beyond Your Own Backyard hack. AKA, where to look for fresh, new marketing ideas.
Now, I know some of you are so flush with ideas to get more customers that you’re spoilt for choice. Let’s face it, you’ve been listening to The Small Business Big Marketing Show for how long?, and you’ve got a list as long as your arm. If that’s you, then it’s time to implement.
But what if that’s not you? What if you’re part of that group of business owners who are staring at a blank page … stuck for ideas? That is not a fun place to be.
Don’t stress though, because the answer is just outside your door, over the fence and around the corner.
Here’s my 3-steps to helping you look beyond your own backyard:
Pro-Tip: When you do see an idea you love, don’t be afraid to contact the business owner and ask them questions about it. Who designed it? Was it hard to implement? How has it worked for them? They’re in an unrelated business, so they should be happy to share.
That’s my 3-steps to Looking Beyond Your Own Backyard.
