You're caught in the daily whirlwind of running your business.
Marketing becomes whatever fires you can fight today – if you get to it at all. Your website hasn’t been updated in months (years?), there’s no consistent content strategy, and your competitors seem to be everywhere while you’re struggling to be anywhere.
Panic starts creeping in. That’s exactly when those smooth-talking “marketing gurus” appear, promising quick fixes and silver-bullet solutions that’ll solve everything – for a price.
Stop. Breathe. You're not alone.
After 20 years of working with business leaders, we’ve seen this story play out countless times. The good news? You don’t need another fancy marketing framework or “guaranteed” system.
This is where Talked About Marketing steps in. We skip the marketing industry circus and focus on what matters: helping you build (or rebuild) marketing fundamentals that actually work – tailored to your business, your time, and your reality.
