What Makes Us Unique
Small Business Owners and Entrepreneurs, are experts in their own field, but this field is not usually sales and Marketing. There is no reason why it should be. But this is an important skill for which larger companies can afford to employ a team.
How can you compete?
Are You Wanting To Improve Your Sales And Profits and so your life?
Marketing is a process of building relationships with your potential customers.This is similar to the process you went through building relationships with your friends.
This process happens every time.
Once you understand this process you will be able to repeat for all new prospective customers (and friends).
We can help you understand this process.
At Beverley Hutton Marketing our goal is to help small/new businesses and entrepreneurs to do just that….
After being in marketing and running small businesses for over 40 years, our desire is now to pass on that hard gained, expertise to those making the journey today.
We work with individuals to help them achieve their goals rather than the companies they represent.
We find this approach is usually a major contribution to a small companies success.
