Exclamation Are You A Lazy Marketer?

Are you a lazy marketer? Not sure what I'm talking about? Let me explain. Lazy marketers try to take shortcuts instead of putting in the effort required for success. For example, when I started my first small business many years ago, it would never have occurred to me to attempt to conquer the business world without first learning the fundamentals of starting a small business. There were so many things I didn't know - but I wanted to learn. I had an insatiable thirst for knowledge. I still do. (to continue reading this article click here.)

Yes, I am a lazy marketer. There is so much I could do but I am limited by time, other priorities in life, so I tend to take shortcuts.
So far, I haven't been very successful in my marketing efforts.
Thanks for the article. It was good reading.

I'm not a Lazy marketer. I really spend time and exerts effort. Hopefully, sooner or later i will start seeing the result of my hard work.

That's good. So, what are you doing to educate yourself and improve your mental growth, as well as your business acumen?

I think marketing is one major part of business that need more attention. Having a great product but nobody know it is like a dead business.

Market! market! market!
