Final Words:

The best marketer wins every time.

A lot of the time we focus on delivery a great product or a great service, and that’s awesome! That’s a customer retention tool. Before we think about customer retention, we have to think about customer acquisition. People only know how good you are once they’ve bought from you. Before they have bought from you, they only know how good your marketing is.

So the best marketer wins, every time. Resolve to become a great marketer.
