You Don’t Need Another Marketing Strategy, You Need This
If your Instagram strategy is not converting, your SEO is not bringing sales, and your email marketing feels pointless, this episode is for you.
I am Therese Oertenblad, founder of Small Business Collaborative and host of Let’s Talk Shop. After 17 years in the home and gift industry, I have seen hundreds of product businesses struggle with the same cycle: chasing one marketing strategy after another without ever building consistent sales.
Here is the truth that no one talks about. None of those strategies will work until you can sell.
In this episode, I share:
Why marketing strategies fall flat without sales skills
How selling actually teaches you what buyers want
The mindset shift that makes selling feel natural, not pushy
The ripple effect of mastering sales on your content, emails, and website
How Sales Growth Lab helps you build a repeatable wholesale system
