006: The 4 Biggest Mistakes we See Holding Business Owners Back The Marketing Junkie Podcast

    • Business

After being in the online marketing world since roughly 2009 when I was a social media strategist for a fortune 500 company, I have definitely seen both brands and individuals rise and fall in this space. 

You may be familiar with one of my favorite phrases, “success leaves clues”, which refers to the notion that successes rarely occur overnight. Rather they are a result of strategic steps and routines that got the person or brand to the level you may be deeming as “successful”.

Well, failure leaves behind PLENTY of clues as well.

Now just to clarify, I really don’t believe there are any failures in online marketing. Sure, you can fall short of a goal, have a program that’s struggling, or have a product that doesn’t seem to be selling, but to me, the only failure is quitting. There’s always new strategies you can try, tweaks you can make, and new products to create and launch. After all, if you take any example of a successful entrepreneur you can bet they have about ten times as many failures as they do successes.

Having been working with these clients for a few years now, I have definitely noticed some common trends. The 4 mistakes we are going to go through in this episode are by far the most common mistakes we see people making when they come to use. 

To give you a preview, here are the 4 mistakes holding clients back that I’ll be discussing in this episode:


Getting Paralyzed by Perfection
Delegating the WRONG Tasks
Being TOO Reactive
Abandoning Instead of Optimizing
