Healthy Leadership

Healthy Leadership

June 5, 2020 by

Home > Zig Zags > Healthy Leadership

As things start to return to a new kind of normal and we slowly get through this health crisis it’s necessary for business owners to learn how to shift their focus to leading through the downturn and to really prepare themselves for taking advantage of the opportunities that might come out of the changes in our society and in the market as we come out of this challenging time. And by being well positioned you can really thrive when things start to turn up.

Healthy leadership is also taking into account the health of your employees, as Jessica mentions in the blogcast, even though Texas seems to be in this optimistic period as businesses reopen, many companies are still canceling events through next year. So, as a business owner, what are you doing to help your company stay healthy?

Like most businesses, Hot Dog Marketing also had annual planning in place and goals for the year, but of course, no one could have predicted businesses being affected in this way and to this capacity. Especially because it’s not often that we see all businesses impacted by something at one time, and not just in Texas or in America, but in all industries worldwide.

But as we come out on the other side of this pandemic, there are some good things to take away. Such as how it forced everyone to reevaluate their priorities. So, it’s important to ask yourself as a business owner, how have you reevaluated or reprioritized in terms of evaluating needing help for your business?

In our 6th blogcast, Jessica also mentions how she believes that sales cycles will be longer this year when compared to a “normal” year, as people are being extra cautious and not quick to make a final decision, even if they understand the value of your business. This brings up the fact that it’s hard to make decisions without a marketing dashboard and a clear idea of how the market is responding to your services right now, so having a business plan and marketing strategy are really important things to have at this moment. These strategic plans can help you to see how your web traffic is going, especially because new visitors to the site can often times signal when things might happen and can be a clear indicator of if you will get a sale through the pipeline.

If you really think about it, your hero message values your client as the hero and in these challenging times that hero is facing additional challenges, so they need a guide to help them get a better vision of their future. Which brings up the question, as a business owner, how are you helping them see and grow their confidence in you and your services?

Touch on these points and many more in our 6th blogcast on, Healthy Leadership and be sure to come back next week for episode 7!

Hot Dog Marketing recently completed the launch of my new business's website and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out! They truly listened to... my vision and made it a reality. The design team was so impressive that I chose to also have them design and print my business cards and other print marketing material. My local pet care company, Delighted Paws Pet Care, now has a cohesive and professional (but still fun!) look and brand. Hot Dog was also able and willing to work within my limited budget. They were transparent from the beginning of what they could and could not accomplish within my financial means and executed very much to my satisfaction! Thank you Jessica, Melissa, Brandon, and the entire team at Hot Dog!read more

Jessica and her team are AMAZING to work with. I don't know they take the jumbled up notes and conversations and build an entire design and messaging... strategy out of it. They were spot on every time they presented an idea. We will continue to work with them and urge anyone else looking for design, messaging, or marketing to USE THEM!!read more

I am so VERY happy with the content that the team at Hot Dog Marketing creates every week for my preschool business. From what they write and... articles they choose for my ads/posts as well as the pictures of our students they choose to highlight, they are outstanding on every metric that matters. It's night and day compared to the last company I hired. They are charging me less for doing MUCH better work! Our Google ranking, which was near the bottom of the first page, is now landing on the top half. We are showing up on maps when we weren't before. I've been in business for 12 years and other businesses much younger and smaller than ours were getting better results, but no longer! At our second meeting, they even gave me suggestions for the website, which I have since implemented, like starting a blog, to help drive more traffic to it. If I have a question or don't like something (no matter how small), they are incredibly responsive. And as we grow with more locations, they will grow with me, which I can't wait to experience. I am absolutely THRILLED they are handling my account and am incredibly grateful I found them.read more
