How Much Marketing Do You Need To Know?
If you outsource all of your online marketing efforts, you don’t need to know anything about marketing, right? WRONG!
Even if you outsource all of your online marketing, including search engine optimization, newsletter publishing, article marketing and everything else, you should still know how different marketing techniques work.
While I enjoy marketing, I do have clients and colleagues who are not nearly as excited about marketing as I am. But I recommend to everyone to know the important things/techniques on marketing their own business.
You need to know your goals. You need to know your strategies. You need to know which techniques you are using, how to use them (at least in theory) and what the expected results should be.
For example, let’s say you decided to do article marketing to market your business, and you hired someone to do it for you. If you don’t know what article marketing is, what your goals are with respect to applying it and what the expected results are, you may have really high or really expectations of the work that will be done on your behalf.
And as you learn these things, who knows, you may decide that you like marketing much more than you thought ;) I had clients who went from “I hate marketing” to “I dislike marketing” to “I like marketing” as they learned what marketing really is.
