And I'm Becky Simms, I'm the Founder and CEO of Reflect Digital. And my top marketing tip, whatever type of marketing it is that you're doing, is to move away from using your traditional demographics to decide targeting and messaging. And instead, just start thinking about motivation.
What motivates someone to buy your product, your service, or whatever it is that you're trying to get them interested in? Even if it's a white paper download, what would motivate them? What's the outcome, and what is it that's going to make a difference for them?
