  1. 5 Signs You're Marketing Correctly and How to Know if You Aren't

    5 Signs You're Marketing Correctly and How to Know if You Aren't

    You've just spent all year marketing your business - or trying to - and before you dive into a new year, you're probably wanting to know if you've been on the right track. I know I would! Today on The Kate Show Podcast, I'm sharing the 5 things you should be looking at to appropriately grade your marketing over the last year: Did you stay top-of-mind with leads, past clients, and colleagues every month? In what ways? What measurable impact have you recorded? If you weren't able to track any results, pause. This is literally the most important action step. Without it, you aren't marketing. You're just guessing. Pro tip: Monthly mass emails (newsletters) are statistically the most effective, low-cost way to stay top-of-mind. No algorithm, and no daily content to create. brilliant, beautiful, and simple. Did you land at least three new referral sources (individuals, businesses, or organizations)? This often happens via in-person socializing or job site connections. If you have made new connections, ask one of them to do an Audience Swap with you in the new year. Did you upload new photos of your work to your website at least once last year? This means you should be taking your own photos or getting it done. Photos should be a priority. Did you post updates on your Google Business listing (GBL) at least every quarter? This is assuming your GBL is already set up and completely filled out. Did you set up Google Analytics and connect it to your website? This is the best way to know whether your website traffic has increased and why. Saying "I FEEL like I'm not getting enough traffic," is always the wrong answer. Analytics are concrete evidence. Feelings should not dictate your marketing decisions. If you answered "no" to any of these, you have your marketing plan for 2025. Resources: Stay top-of-mind with high-end clients in the way they prefer - direct email correspondence that feels brilliantly personal.

    Marketing Checklist Do's and Don'ts to Save Time & Money

    "What else should I be doing to market my business?" Newer clients to my agency often ask this question because they, like many of you, want to be proactive and preventative in their marketing - rather than merely reactive when their leads all but dry up. If there is a gap in their marketing, they want to tackle it like a football player on Sunday afternoon! And I deeply respect that. In today's episode of The Kate Show Podcast, I've put together a hard and fast marketing checklist specific to businesses in interior design, staging, organizing, and window treatments.

  5. Flodesk & Mailchimp Marketing Templates for Home Pros

    Flodesk & Mailchimp Marketing Templates for Home Pros

    Would your marketing get done faster if someone else did half (or more) of the work for you? Of course! That's why my agency has been offering marketing templates (and template customization services) since 2016. But recently, we did a new thing. Well, two things. Number 1: WE LAUNCHED 350+ FLODESK EMAIL TEMPLATES! Whew, it was a ton of work. (Thank you to my amazing content manager, Natasha!!) Every template includes text and images that you can use to market your interior design, home staging, organizing, or window treatment business. To be honest, half of our clients use the content as-is...and still get results from it. The other half works with us directly to further customize the templates, resulting in high-end marketing that requires specific yet minimal involvement from THEM, the home pro entrepreneur. Today on The Kate Show Podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain (the drapery?) on the massive amount of marketing templates we offer and how you can use them. Plus, I'm giving you an early look at our new templates for Mailchimp. Because GUYS...this brings me to my second announcement: We found a way to MAKE MAILCHIMP TEMPLATES LOOK LIKE FLODESK. Say whaaaat?! You won't find these pretty, feminine Mailchimp email templates anywhere else. I looked high and low for Mailchimp newsletter templates that weren't created in Canva (because that makes the entire newsletter an image, which often won't show up in inboxes - gulp). When I couldn't find anything pretty enough to help interior designers and similar pros with their marketing, I decided to create my own. We have the written content. YEARS WORTH. But I was sick of stale Mailchimp templates that were quickly being overshadowed by fresh, new, young Flodesk. That problem has been solved, and I can't wait to reveal the gorgeous plug-and-play templates we now offer for YOU to market your home industry business. We have massive amounts of templates for Flodesk, Mailchimp, and Canva. If you want to see what I'm talking about, watch The Kate Show on Spotify or YouTube.

    Brand & Business Lessons From the Bible

    Life and business were never meant to be solo journeys...or a Ninja Warrior competition...or some weirdly long episode of Survivor. But, it can sure feel that way sometimes! If you've felt a little lost in growing your home industry business (or any creative, service-based business, really) this episode of The Kate Show is for you. Today I'm sharing 11 business and branding lessons straight from the Bible itself. I hope this episode refreshes you the way these messages have for me. Running a business can make us feel worn out and lonely, and this might be just the encouragement your soul needs.

  7. PR & Media Opportunities: 5 Steps for Creating Your Own

    PR & Media Opportunities: 5 Steps for Creating Your Own

    How do home pros like you get featured, published, or promoted by bigger brands and entities? They make themselves marketable, ask for or create their own opportunities, and most importantly, they pursue an ongoing relationship with the entities that feature them. Making yourself marketable (meaning, making it easier for OTHER people to talk about YOU) is different than marketing your business, and doing this is essential in order to then ask for or create your own PR and media opportunities. If you want to be proactive in the brand exposure and media coverage that your interior design, staging, window treatment, or organizing business receives, this is the episode for you. You don't have to be an influencer, nor must you have been in business for years and years, in order to make this method work for you. If you are a go-getter and love to think outside the box, you might be surprised where the method I'm sharing today will take you. Using this method, I've landed several key media and PR opportunities for my own brand, namely: being featured by Brainz Magazine and recognized as a Top 500 global entrepreneur, becoming an educator and paid speaker for Honeybook, and becoming an official media partner for Squarespace and Patriot Mobile. I'm walking the talk and getting great results. You can, too! Watch The Kate Show on Spotify and YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

    Mindless Marketing vs. Thought Leadership

    How many of us push out marketing content just for the sake of being able to say we're "marketing?" I was guilty of this for years until I realized it just wasn't working. The stuff I posted on social media or sent in my mass emails or published on my blog felt too overused and generic. And it's because I hadn't become a thought leader yet. If you're ready to stop mindlessly marketing and become a thought leader in your industry, making yourself more attractive to serious leads and great clients, you're listening to the right episode. Let's do this. Subscribe to and rate this podcast wherever you're tuning in. You can watch the video version of this podcast on Spotify and YouTube. Examples of Mindless Marketing: Creating any marketing content without correlating it to your offerings or offering personal reflections (seasonal / holiday content, trendy reels, overused and DIY-focused blog posts are notorious for making this mistake) Not showing your face in photos or videos Relying too heavily on Canva graphics Running paid ads without first determining how your ideal client makes buying decisions Operating without a marketing plan, where none of your marketing efforts connect to each other or have a consistent flow Inconsistency with how often you market, your visuals, and your messaging Examples of Thought-Leadership Marketing Explaining why you care deeply about making sure your trade-of-choice is done correctly (interior design, staging, etc...) Sharing the emotional and mental impact your services have on your clients, rather than focusing on the service itself Presenting your unique cocktail of beliefs, such as a controversial real estate staging method, that makes you memorable and HONEST about why you are different A focus on making sure your clients get a great end result versus a focus on giving them what they THINK they want; what clients think they want and what they actually need are often two different things. A laser-focus on the ideal client that you serve, so that you can talk about their pain points and how you solve them Limiting where and how you market your business - and being consistent in those FEW areas.
