Sound familiar?

This is a common mindset among small business owners who focus on marketing and selling but forget that their company is both a business and a brand.

Your brand influences every aspect of your customer's perceptions of your company. Branding builds trust, recognition, loyalty, and reputation.

In this episode, I am joined by Michael Janda. Michael is an award-winning creative director, designer, and agency veteran. In 2002, he founded the creative agency Riser, which provided design and development services for an impressive list of client clients that included Disney, Google, Warner Bros, and many other high-profile brands. Michael sold his agency in 2015 and now spends his time speaking, developing books, courses, and social media content to help creatives level up.

This may seem like a difficult question, but to be honest, most marketers struggle with this as well. 

If you’re struggling with social ROI yourself, I totally get it.

Measuring the return on metrics such as engagement rate or customer satisfaction often feels like a guessing game.

Besides, not everything you do on social media translates directly into dollars and cents.

Yet, at the same time, businesses need to be held accountable for the time and resources that go into their social efforts.

That is why I invited analytics rockstar Christopher Penn to join me on the show. Chris is the Co-Founder and Chief Data Scientist of Trust Insight- a data and analytics consulting firm. He is also the co-host of the Marketing Over Coffee Podcast.

You're putting in 12 to 14 hour days. You feel burned out. You're not sleeping well, and work is constantly on your mind. Everything is on your shoulders. 

And worst of all, your business growth is stalling. Up to this point, you've done everything, and it's paid off as the business scaled quickly. But now, you've reached the end of your ability to carry this thing all by yourself.

Delegation doesn't come naturally for many small business owners. It's a complete change of pace from what most business owners do during the startup phase -- i.e., everything! But that doesn't mean it's not possible.

If you want to scale your business beyond yourself, you must learn to let go of the death grip you have on your business and learn to effectively document and delegate.

In this episode, I am joined by Chris Ronzio. Chris Ronzio is the founder and CEO of Trainual, a leading SaaS company that helps businesses automate their onboarding and training by documenting every process, policy, and procedure in one simple system. Chris is also the host of the "Process Makes Perfect" podcast, author of "100 Hacks To Improve Your Business," and Inc. Magazine contributor with a column called "The Process Playbook." With Trainual, Chris is on a mission to make business easier by helping business leaders find the time to do more of what they love and providing a way to document and delegate what they do.
