Michelle's Marketing Experience
FAQ answered by Michelle
How will someone who has worked in multinationals with big budgets know how to help a start-up or small business?
Well good question! I am entrepreneurial. In early 2007, I was curious to know if I could create a start-up business and succeed. The answer was YES (PHEW!). From 2007 – 2013 I started, grew and managed every element of the business until its successful sale in 2013. This business was operated on weekends and evenings. During the day, I was head of global marketing for a multinational. It was this small business that opened her eyes to how hard it is for small businesses to develop a brand and engage in marketing activities that will generate desperately required revenue. It was at this point my desire to help small businesses grow really started to burn a fire in my belly. Over the past 5 years, Michelle has helped many entrepreneurs to start their own business or provide simple advice to assist them to grow their business.
What my small business taught me
Small business is HARD, really hard. Money is so precious and everyone wants the small amount that you have left over at the end of the month. So deciding to engage with any service provider is over thought and scary. If it doesn’t work, how will you pay your bills next month. It’s a risk and I completely understand how you feel. However, I do know that investing in branding and marketing practices from the beginning is a sound investment.
