I'm often asked by farmers who are strapped for time: "Help! If I only have a few hours a week to devote to marketing, what should I be doing?"
Today's podcast answers that question. I share the top 5 tasks that I repeat every week in my main season to keep the flywheel spinning in my farm business, and to keep the revenue coming in.
Creating a system for your marketing strategy is the key. When you know the tasks that drive results in your business, and you create a container/system to make sure they happen over and over again -- that's when you see the needle start to move in your business. I hope you find this list helpful.
Next week, I'll do a follow-up episode and talk about the top repetitive monthly/annual tasks that drive results in my business. So be sure to check that one out too!
