With nearly three-quarters of the US population using social media regularly, it’s a given that digital marketing is the best way to generate leads and get more customers in almost any type of business. Yet, a few people still feel that word of mouth or small ads in the local paper are the only ways to get business.

In this episode of Building Success Stories, Ann and Seth discuss why some small business owners are reluctant to use digital marketing, some answers to their issues, and how they can get started, even on a small scale, to get more leads and new clients.

It’s time to review your goals and targets from earlier this year. Ideally, you’ve been reviewing these weekly or at least monthly, but so many people don’t, which is why this mid-year assessment is critical.

It’s so easy to lose track of time this time of year. Schools are out, vacations and holidays happen, and we get out of our routine. Hopefully, you are having fun and enjoying the fruits of your labor from the first half of the year.

In this episode of Building Success Stories, Ann and Seth discuss:

- Why a Mid-Year Assessment is important.

- What to look at during the assessment.

- How to get back on track to reaching your annual goals.

- Can you do even better than you originally planned?

- Assessing progress in all areas of your life and why that's important.
