It's pretty common for business owners to discuss with pride their growth in terms of revenues. "Our revenues have gone up by 18% this year," they might say with a glad nod in their head. And while this is both admirable and good news, it's not terribly indicative of how well the business is doing. For instance, revenue growth will almost always spike naturally with a brand new business. And that 18% year-over-year growth...that's probably underperforming for a startup. Also, what is missing with a report in revenue growth, is how much it cost to chase down that increase in business. If your marketing expenses went up 82% to get you that 18% increase in revenues...then in most cases, that's a losing recipe.  Winning in business...is in the margins. Join Michael on this important discussion of how to achieve long-term, highly sustainable growth.

There is a company named International Business Machines...you know them as IBM...and there was a time when they ruled in the world of enterprise level computing. They still serve as one of the most prestigious and well performing companies in the world. But there was a time in the 80's during the early days of selling servers for large corporations that they absolutely reined supreme. It was a time when they were known simply as Big Blue. As a result of their dominance in the market, they had a sales and marketing slogan, that was partially based on humor, and mostly based on stone cold brilliant positioning.  What was this positioning statement, and what is the powerful lesson we can learn from it for our businesses today? Join Michael to learn the answer to this question and to gain a critical marketing insight from Big Blue.

I don't talk about these things a lot because… well, they're unpleasant and people don't tend to want to hear hard truth, especially when it hits on triggers.But, today I'm going there. These are my opinions based on my almost 6 years in business and my experience in working with hundreds of women in business. Dare you to make it to the 7th opinion :)Show notes: https://peggyrejames.com/podcast/64-unpopular-opinionsGROW Business & Marketing Academy - peggyrejames.com/growReady to work less and make more through a scalable business model?

Did you know that Latinas make up only 3% of the marketing industry? And that's being generous because Latinx in general only makes up 6% of the marketing industry! And it's crazy because every industry needs marketing. No matter what you love there's always a marketing department. So why aren't we in the room when these marketing decisions are being made? Or even better, how do we get in the room?   Alejandra Hurtado started Majesty Academy, the first marketing school for Latinas. With over 12 years of marketing experience, she noticed a shortage of Latinas in Marketing and Tech. Now, her mission is to use her academy to empower more women and Latinas into marketing. Alejandra is deeply committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in the marketing and tech industries.   In this week's episode, Alejandra tells us why she wants more Latinas to be in the marketing industry. Whether you're an entrepreneur or you work for a company you love, marketing is all about communication. And the Latino population is being neglected because there aren't a ton of Latina markers to speak to our own people. The marketing industry needs people with cultural competency, and that includes you. Listen to Alejandro's episode to hear all about her journey as an immigrant, why she loves marketing, and why she started Majesty Academy.  Connect with Alejandra: Instagram: @majesty_academyTikTok: @yourmarketingchica  Website: www.majestyacademy.co    Website: www.theerikacruz.com Follow Erika on: Instagram @‌theerikacruzTikTok @‌theerikacruzLinkedIn How to work with Erika: Join the waitlist for Courage Driven Latina here.   Podcast production for this episode was provided by CCST.

As I say in the book, probably a large percentage of your budget is being spent for you. So, how much of the work is actually in service of the buyer and have you really critically thought about versus you do it because you've always done it. So, trying to figure out what is the buyer trying to do? What does your business actually need to spend marketing dollars on?

The Marketing Leader's Code: Unlock Your Potential - Learn The Secrets Of Successful Marketing Leadership by Gareth Helm About the Book: The Marketing Leader's CODE is a leadership book for marketing leaders, written by marketing leaders.  Much has been published about the challenges marketing leaders face, but very little has been done to prepare marketers for the leadership role and to be successful.  This book fills this gap by distilling the activities of successful marketing leaders into a simple framework and providing diagnostic assessments, real-life case studies, and a toolkit of tactics to build capability. About the Author: Gareth Helm has over 30 years experience in marketing businesses all around the world, with half of this time working in the Leadership Team. Starting out as a graduate trainee with Unilever in the Middle East, he went on to be the marketing leader or advisor on a wide variety of brands in different stages of their life cycle. From new start-ups to some of the world's largest and favorite brands including McDonald's and Mars. Gareth was recognized as one of the top 100 most effective marketers in 2021 by Marketing Week and is a Fellow of The Marketing Academy, a community of over 200 senior marketing leaders globally. And, interesting fact - midway through Gareth's marketing career he found out he was dyslexic!  Click here for this episode's website page with the links mentioned during the interview... https://www.salesartillery.com/marketing-book-podcast/marketing-leaders-code-gareth-helm
