4 Critical Lessons Learned From Working With a Remote Team

While it can sometimes be tough to not have our entire staff together in the same place, opening ourselves up to remote work has allowed us to keep some of our most valuable and talented people on board.

How Five-Minutes-a-Day Can Double Your Referrals
Are you ‘on’ Facebook? Do you ‘do’ Facebook? Your clients are, and they do.
I don’t mean having a business page on Facebook and sharing something to it every so often. That’s good (and you should definitely keep doing that), but not what I’m talking about.

Client Filters: What They Are, Why You Should Have One, and How to Get Started
A client filter, or an audience persona, as we tend to call it here at LMG, is an imaginary person that you’ve set up as a means for making sure that the way you’re doing business appeals to your ideal client. Going through this exercise to create a client filter is critical, especially when it comes to marketing efforts, because it allows you to know who it is that you’re actually trying to target, and to get a feel as to whether or not your efforts will appeal to that person, so that you’re not wasting time, money and energy.
Taking a Vacation From Your Business
Just building a team isn’t enough. You need to trust them to handle things on their own while you are gone so you don’t spend your whole vacation “just checking in.”
“We empower our team back home to make decisions and handle things in our absence,” said Kelly Edwards, co-owner of Lawton Marketing Group.
A Business Owner’s Most Important Asset
If someone were to ask me, “What’s the hardest thing to manage in your business?” my answer would be “my time,” always. As a business owner, when catastrophe hits, you can always replace lost business and lost revenue, but you can never replace lost time. It’s crucial to have a duplicatable time-management strategy (or strategies!) that you can lean on so that you know where your most valuable asset is running off to and how to get it back!
