• social media
  
  
  • I’m not talking about Social Media Marketing, I’m talking about selling to your friends. Posting regularly on your social media, making your friends aware you are providing this service, is extremely powerful.

• A marketing budget helps you to stay on the financial track. With a marketing budget, it would be easy to keep track of your expenses. This helps you know where to spend money and where not.

• Furthermore, how would you know if you are overspending or can still spend more on the specific strategy?

• The worst thing about not having the budget is you’ll just keep spending more and more nowhere and prepare your business to fail unknowingly.

• The budget also helps you to allocate funds in the right place. Yeah, a budget map will guide you to spend your money and resources on the right marketing strategy.

• Having a well-defined budget helps you to set realistic goals that move your business forward. After preparing the budget you will know how much you can save and where you can spend the saved amount.
