    As a “Results Coach” to numerous business owners in a variety of fields, I am often puzzled as to what little or no effort goes into marketing. Businesses spend money on advertising methods such as billboards, signs, car signage, magazine and trade journal space, newspaper, mail drops etc… and yet every day I witness 100 mistakes for every element I see correctly implemented.
