Marketing a critical business Pillar

Marketing is the heart of any successful business

Marketing is the most critical pillar of any business large or small. It is however the most ignored.

Why is it the most critical pillar?

  • It is focused at solving looking at the problems a a target consumer and solving it. Solving a target consumer problem is what creates a business.90% of small business start ups focus on how much money they can make as they start and not what problem they are solving in their target consumer.
  • Once the consumer/customer becomes the center of what your business is then marketing becomes the life or death of the business.

Marketing, is therefore a critical pillar to businesses and the big businesses know this,hence give it the seriousness it deserves but small businesses ignore it and they shut down within the first three years not knowing what went wrong.
