Strategize E102
In this episode of Tycoons, Michael Pedersen joins the show to talk about what it means to be a revenue growth specialist. Mike’s background in “content marketing” to include informative and instructional videos has led to his current success as an entrepreneur.
Tune in to hear Mike explain the importance of strategizing your company before you can take your marketing and advertising to the next level. Companies spend hundreds and thousands of dollars on marketing, but they do not have a strategy and therefore their marketing has been ineffective. Mike Pedersen Consulting will work with you to develop your business strategy and start growing your revenue.
Mike has a free book that you can download here: https://yourbusinessgrowthpartner.com/
He’s also looking to interview experienced business owners for his second book. The focus of the book will be to share the strategies from the first book (which was written pre-pandemic) and get insights on to how they think businesses in their industry can benefit from these strategies post-pandemic. If you’re interested in being interviewed, reach out to Mike!
Mike Pedersen is an Business Growth Strategist for businesses ranging between $1m-$5M in revenues. Mike has owned and operated his own successful online business for 19 years, and throughout that time period has gained the knowledge to helping a wide range of businesses in many verticals grow their revenues.
Businesses need to implement a multi-channel strategy to not only grow their revenues but stay competitive. That means knowing your ideal customer/client; the buyer journey; as well as all the possible opportunities to partner with complimentary businesses to explode your growth and revenues.
