About Duct Tape Marketing

Go ahead, do it now, we’ll wait…

Great stuff, right?   The reason I am affiliated with John Jantsch and Duct Tape Marketing is simple – it works.  The Duct Tape philosophy is not about making sure you have a website, or a Facebook page, or a Twitter account, or a Whatever The Next Hot Thing Is thing (Pokemon Go anyone?), it’s about taking a practical, logical approach to your Sales & Marketing efforts to product consistent, high quality results over time.

That is, a System.

Small business owners are challenged every day to not only operate their businesses, but also to grow them.  Too often, the priority of attracting, converting and keeping ideal customers takes a back seat to the daily Tyranny of the Urgent – employee issues, administration challenges, daily operational issues, etc.  When the Tyrant kicks in, the business can ignore profitable growth for far too long.

With Duct Tape Marketing, imagine:

  • No longer having to worry about whether or not new business was going to come in the door
  • Being confident in your sales and marketing investments, knowing that they would produce a significant and meaningful return for your business
  • No longer worrying about if they prospect who called you yesterday was properly followed up with
  • Having the time to grow your business versus merely operating it
  • Your ideal target customers finding you without you having to pound the streets or (yikes!) cold call to find new customersHaving a system for attracting and closing new business that was practical and easy to operate

That is what Duct Tape Marketing is about, and it is core to every engagement Fortune Marketing works on.

You have systems for Accounting, HR, Customer Service, etc. why not marketing?
