  • Why 80% of Marketing Fails: The Strategic Missteps Businesses Make
    2024/10/07

    In this episode of The Business Behind Your Business, host Paul Sweeney sits down with marketing expert Kerim El Gabaili to explore why 80% of marketing efforts fail for small and medium-sized businesses. Drawing on his experience as the Managing Director of a leading marketing agency, Kerim discusses how businesses often skip vital strategic steps, leading to poor outcomes.

The key lies in starting with a solid plan, much like calling an architect before building a house.

He highlights the importance of measuring results—such as cost per acquisition—and tailoring marketing channels to align with business goals. Throughout the conversation, both Paul and Kerim stress the significance of putting customers at the centre of your business strategy and why businesses must invest in long-term marketing plans to achieve sustainable growth.

    In this insightful episode, Paul Sweeney speaks with Garrett Delph, founder of Clarity Ops, about a common challenge many business owners face—micromanagement and its detrimental effects on scaling a business. Garrett explains how micromanagement stems from a lack of organizational infrastructure and accountability structures, often leading to stress, poor performance, and high employee turnover.

    Garrett introduces the concept of organizational infrastructure, emphasizing that businesses need clear, defined processes and expectations to avoid the chaos that leads to micromanagement. He shares practical strategies for building effective accountability systems that foster independence and high performance. This includes clearly defining roles, measurable outcomes, and providing the right training and support for employees to succeed. By shifting focus from controlling individuals to improving processes, businesses can reduce conflict, improve culture, and increase efficiency.

    Throughout the conversation, Garrett and Paul highlight the importance of investing time in building the right structure for a sustainable, scalable business, and why seeking outside expertise can be crucial for transformation. This episode is a must-listen for any business leader looking to reduce chaos and improve accountability in their organization.
