How many emails are too many?
Having put all my existing subscribers through my new (re)welcome email sequence over the last week I debating skipping this week's regular newsletter for fear of being a nuisance!
But - the habit is there - so an email went out as usual on Thurs morning with a relevant short tip alongside 3 things of note:
- Instagram's new 'flipside' account feature rollout.
- Changes that will affect owners of Facebook groups
- First look at my new 'social media scorecard'
What habit are you proud of sticking to?
PS Let me know if you'd like to know more about any of the above or want to join the list of "The Beacon' subscribers

Social Media platforms are full of small businesses desperately sharing their photos with no links, or asking their friends to share, comment and like to support small.
I know its hard to balance your business with everything else going on but you're doing more harm than good by taking this approach
Instead of copying and pasting whatever everyone else is doing, here are some tips that will work for your small business:
👉Have a social media strategy, what exactly do you want to gain from social media for your business?
👉Have a content marketing plan based on what your audience needs are.
👉Plan to be consistent with your posting, networking and interacting. Be where your ideal client is hanging out
👉Be helpful and useful to your audience by sharing information that will help them.
There are no quick fixes, cheats or fast routes to growing your social media presence so you're just wasting your time trying to find them.
👉DM me to see how I can support you.
👉 In a world that's all about connections, it helps to think about WHY and HOW to leverage social media to boost your business. 🌐
Don't miss out – The online space is YOUR space for real business growth
Are you strategic about your online presence?

Weekly newsletters - do you send one?
On my list of non-negotiable marketing efforts is sending a weekly email and -as suggested by the fabulous Helen Perry - I've given it a name!
'The Beacon' serves as a platform where I can share insights and resources that I believe will be both interesting and valuable as we navigate the path of building our businesses together.
Final touches are underway to this week's edition but it's shaping up to include:
- a tip to keep your online profile in shape
- notables changes coming to LinkedIn next month
- and a little bit of a Christmas sprinkle about one of my family traditions and my fav (non-Christmas) advert right now
I always encourage subscribers to reply with questions and comments but the best part is when they forward it on to another business owner
What are your thoughts about email marketing?
