Digital marketing is ever-evolving, which is exciting but can also be derailing. Should you jump on the latest marketing trend? Our blog post discusses how to make strategic marketing decisions that will benefit your business for the long haul.

When envisioning marketing success, we tend to think about the act of moving forward, taking action, investing in new solutions, or making a new plan(s). What we have found is that some of the biggest success stories start simply in the act of pausing.

Marketing, and especially digital marketing, is often perceived as a continuous journey where you constantly accelerate and go-go-go to capture market share. While we love momentum, there is nothing heroic about going for the sake of going. This can cause stress, burnout, and poor decision-making.

If you are in the mood for a marketing chill pill, consider strategically pausing to help you regroup, pivot, and prioritize to save, simplify and amplify your results. Click below to read more.

In the marketing world, light can be used as a powerful metaphor. Ads, social media, websites, videos, and email are examples that represent the lantern – marketing vehicles that shine when they have a guiding force, the light within. While it’s essential to move forward with marketing (momentum is a must), we encourage you to take a tiny step back to ensure you are clear on your light (your “why”) as this clarity will illuminate your strategy, making all these amazing marketing tools work more powerfully to brand, build and boost your business.

One of the toughest parts of our job is seeing and hearing the tales of great leaders and organizations who are experiencing burnout or have trust issues after having negative marketing experiences.

One of the main reasons we see marketing fail is from neglect or dismissal of the relational side of marketing. Yes, there is an art and science to marketing, but so often, it's the ❤️HEART❤️ that needs to be attended to.

When maximizing healthy relationships is at the forefront of your marketing strategy, passion and process collide, and projects, processes, and systems begin to become clear.

The Power of Speaking Up In business, as in life, we are often presented with moments of opposition or conflict when speaking up can create opportunities for improvement, growth, and new solutions. Having a foundation of trust, compassion, and confidence

When it comes to messaging and experience, consistency is key. It begins with the first impression and follows with all other experiences to help communicate, connect, and convert customers. Whether that messaging is in an Instagram post, an ad, a website visit, a video, or a blog post, marketing is meaningful and memorable when there is continuity.

Create Memorable Marketing with Brand Continuity First impressions are important. When it comes to marketing, so are the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh… (you get the point) At Web Marketing Therapy, we remind our clients that when it comes to messaging

Our founder Lorrie Thomas Ross looks at life through a marketing lens. Seeing this photo reminded her not only of a bad photo shoot fashion decision (jacket and pants shouldn't have been paired up, tight leather leggings and heels look like something Sandy from Grease wore in the final “You’re the one that I want” dance number!) but more importantly, about the value of coordination.

To get the most mileage out of our marketing, it's critical to question how coordinated your marketing efforts are.

As a verb, the Oxford Dictionary beautifully defines coordination as bringing the different elements of (a complex activity or organization) into a relationship that will ensure efficiency or harmony.

Marketing coordination serves to bring all the different elements of your marketing strategy and efforts into a relationship that will optimize, and ideally harmonize the way you build your credibility, usability, visibility, sellability, and scalability.

Coordinated marketing is about having consistency and flow, no screeching halts.

Lorrie began her career in marketing working in luxury retail, so when she talks about coordination, she always reiterates that that does not mean all your marketing has to be “matchy-matchy” (a non-flattering retail term used to refer to clothes that did not coordinate, but over-matched in a thoughtless, robotic or fashion-victim way) but instead have a harmonious flow, ideally in a seemingly effortless way.

Marketing that matters is about building meaningful relationships via maximizing exchanges.

One of the main reasons marketing strategy doesn’t make sense is because the focus is on shiny, new future-forward tools vs. first focusing on how to build meaningful connections. Tools and technology will come and go, but the future of marketing will always tap into the five senses.
