Questions

Questions About Marketing

What is the difference between branding and marketing?
Branding is who you are. Marketing is how you tell people about it. Branding is long-term and strategic, it doesn’t change every quarter. Marketing is ongoing and tactical, it adapts based on what you’re trying to achieve. You need both, but branding comes first. We’ve broken this down in full here.
Do I need to be on every social media platform?
No, and trying to be usually makes things worse. It’s far better to show up consistently on one or two platforms where your actual customers spend time than to be patchy across five. For most Irish SMEs, LinkedIn works well for B2B, and Instagram or TikTok for B2C.
How do I know if my marketing is working?
If you can’t answer that question, it’s usually because you haven’t set up the right tracking. At a minimum, you should know where your website traffic is coming from, which pages people visit, and whether enquiries or sales are increasing. Google Analytics 4 and Google Search Console are free and give you most of what you need.
