Have you got your basics right? Listen to this episode if you'd like some help refining your message, clarifying your ideal customer, what makes you special and how to make them buy from you. It's the backbone of any great marketing strategy, even if you're well established and running like a well-oiled machine, there's always a good time to go Back to Basics.

Business owners are amazing at coming up with brilliant ideas. Not so great at seeing them through to completion...

This week James & Garry are discussing why having too many ideas could be a bad thing and how not focussing on what you want to achieve is the fist mistake people make when they get distracted by a shiny new idea.

Working with Charities is one of the core values of Thirty Three Percent and since starting up, we've been working with some amazing Charities and Not For Profits - and one of the things we're constantly asked is how to get more from marketing. This week, we're discussing the many and varied ways in which money can be wasted and the simple ways they can make marketing work hard and deliver results. 

James and Garry discuss the pitfalls that many fall into, especially when it comes to getting free or discounted work from agencies.

The past year has changed a lot about the way we work. Not just where, but when, how and what time of day.

The 9 to 5 working pattern is truly a thing of the past, and this week on the Ruthlessly Efficient Marketing Podcast, we discuss why that's a great thing. James and Garry discuss how you can make a working pattern that delivers for your customers as well as makes the most of every one on your team (and business owners too!). It's all about picking the times you're most productive, not the times set up by a system that dates back to 1940.

It's also the final efficiency week, so we're wrapping up everything we've learned and talking all about focus.

Consistency might not sound that exciting when it comes to marketing, but having a consistent message and delivering it on a consistent basis is absolutely key to great marketing.

On this week's podcast, James and Garry discuss how consistency can create great content, how not to give up when things looks like they aren't progressing and how to spot when it's time to move on to the next idea.

It's also Efficiency Week 7 - this week we're talking about To Do lists and a lovely little rant about meetings!

As always, please do follow the podcast on your app of choice - we really appreciate it!
