Trust Your Gut: Spot Marketing Red Flags Before It's Too Late

Dr. Karen Finn knew something was wrong with her marketing before she could prove it. Her providers kept telling her everything was working great. The numbers said traffic was up. But something still did not sit right.

In this episode, Karen shares what happened when she helped another business owner dig into her own data and find out what those traffic numbers were actually hiding, why so many business owners default to blaming themselves when marketing is not working, and the unexpected phone call that changed the entire trajectory of her first business.

You'll learn:

• What it looks like when traffic numbers tell one story and your gut tells another
• Why business owners, especially women, tend to blame themselves first when marketing is not working
• What happened when Karen helped a client pull up Google Analytics and look at the real data
• The surprising reason some business owners stay with providers who are not delivering
• How Karen went from spending her way to near-failure to building a machine that still ranked years after she stopped writing
• Why knowing your numbers is not optional and what to do when they do not make sense to you

If you have ever felt like something in your marketing is off but could not quite prove it, this episode will help you trust that instinct.
