30 Solid marketing tips and ideas that didn't make it into previous lists.

So I was going through ideas for upcoming posts and realized that I had a bunch of stuff that had ended up on thy cutting room for in past edits. Some are just fundamentals and got left out because they seemed too “Basic.” Some are just good general suggestions and some are simply odd.

Anyway, not wanting to let good stuff go to waste, I figured why not just put this out as a smorgasbord of prompts or reminders you can use as an easy reference whenever you’re planning or creating.

Enjoy!
