You know marketing is costly, so you\u2019d like to understand it better before you jump in. The question is where to begin?<\/p>\n<p>Everyone seems to have a different opinion on what\u2019s important. There is so much noise and conflicting information, it\u2019s challenging to know what to do.\u00a0It\u2019s tempting to avoid the headache and hire someone to do it for you. I urge you not to. Marketing is important. You need to understand it well enough to make sound investments.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-h-3-font-size\">Why Not Just Hire Someone?<\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019re chances of <a href=\"https:\/\/accruemarketing.com\/marketing_companies_consultants\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">hiring the right marketing company<\/a> before you know what you need is slim. You\u2019re more likely to waste your money on a bunch of <a href=\"https:\/\/accruemarketing.com\/random-acts-of-marketing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">random acts of marketing<\/a> and get nowhere but frustrated.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-h-3-font-size\">You Don\u2019t Need To Become An Expert<\/h3>\n<p>What you need is context. As Stephen Covey always said, \u201cStart with the end in mind\u201d. You need to understand what marketing is, how it works and how you\u2019ll profit from it. Without clear intent, you\u2019ll be spending money and hoping for the best. Hope is not a strategy.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-h-3-font-size\">What\u2019s The Most Cost-Effective Way To Start?<\/h3>\n<p>Do some reading. The challenge with reading books is finding books for startup entrepreneurs and business owners. A lot of books are too narrow in focus, or they\u2019re written for marketers. You need books and articles intended for small business owners.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-h-3-font-size\">Marketing Books For Startups &amp; Business Owners<\/h3>\n<p>Each resource listed here is a quick and easy read. Each book, eBook and article cover an important aspect of marketing. Each will stand on its own but please consider reading them in the order presented. If you do, you\u2019ll gain a big picture perspective and the context you need.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-h-3-font-size\">My Challenge To You<\/h3>\n<p>You may look at this list of nine resources and baulk at the time commitment. There are four eBooks and articles that you can make your way through in about an hour, and five books that will take you about 16 hours to read.\u00a0This investment is nothing compared to the money you\u2019ll waste if you don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>What you\u2019ll come away with is a workable understanding of how to lead your marketing program. If you\u2019re serious about growing your business, I invite you to take this learning on. It\u2019ll be good for you like eating spinach. I promise you\u2019ll be glad you did.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-h-3-font-size\">Let\u2019s Start With Free And Easy<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Resource 1 \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/accruemarketing.com\/what-is-marketing\/\">What is Marketing?<\/a><br \/><\/strong><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\">This article is the thin edge of the wedge.
