There are common marketing truths that all small business owners should live by, and there are marketing MYTHS we should all leave behind. Let’s talk about them!

In this week’s episode of the Small Owned Business (S.O.B.) Marketing podcast, we are revisiting past marketing myths Vivian debunked in a 2019 YouTube video. We touch on the relevance of these myths today, why they are myths, and provide insights on how small business owners can navigate their marketing effectively.
