How often should I audit my marketing strategy?

You should audit your marketing strategy at least once per quarter to ensure it remains effective and aligned with your goals. However, a more in-depth review—such as a full spring cleaning audit—is beneficial annually to reassess long-term performance, update branding, and refine messaging. If you’re running frequent paid campaigns, monitoring performance monthly can help optimize ad spend and ROI.

What are the key signs that my marketing efforts need a refresh?

Your marketing strategy may need a refresh if you notice:

?? Declining engagement on social media, email, or website traffic.

?? Low conversion rates, meaning visitors aren’t taking desired actions.

?? High bounce rates, which indicate visitors aren’t finding what they need.

?? Stagnant or dropping ROI from paid ads and campaigns.

?? Inconsistent branding or messaging across platforms.

?? Outdated content that no longer reflects current trends, audience needs, or SEO best practices.

If you’re seeing any of these red flags, it’s time to reassess and optimize your approach!

Last month's poll results are in!

We asked: How many purchasing decisions are you actively considering right now?

50% of poll voters said "2-3 decisions" and 50% said "4-5 decisions."

Why? Here's our take…

With today’s fast-paced digital landscape and endless options, it’s no surprise that decision-making is more complex than ever. Our poll results show that 100% of respondents are actively considering multiple purchases at once. This reflects how consumers and businesses alike are constantly weighing choices, whether for tools, services, or solutions, making it essential for brands to provide clear, compelling messaging that simplifies decision-making.
