I have always loved SELLING! 👍

If I hadn’t developed a career in MARKETING, I am sure I would have developed one in SALES. 😉

I have had a couple of stints in SALES through my working life, when I first graduated selling vacuum cleaners and washing machines to electrical stores (that was a baptism of fire!) and later selling beer and cider to multiple grocers (I had got the hang of it by then!) 😁

In fact a lot of marketing is in fact selling, sometimes I say they are like TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN.

And even though nowadays I PROVIDE MAINLY MARKETING and STRATEGY for businesses, my work is always with a COMMERCIAL MINDSET, with selling and revenue (and that dirty word, profit! 😉 ) top of mind. After all marketing needs to help grow a business, it needs to be an investment in building a business, and not seen as a cost.

That’s why I often say “BETTER MARKETING DRIVES BUSINESS GROWTH’, well at least it does with the right people supporting you.

If I can help, DM me.

And the picture, well I am at the races, Newmarket, not for the races, but to help the sales effort for one of the businesses I support at a TRADE SHOW, more SALES and less MARKETING today, but all in the pursuit of more customers, more sales, and business GROWTH!

Met some wonderful people there too. Lots of businesses looking for growth too.
