Do you often find it difficult to make time for your advertising activities? Or do you find that whenever you do marketplace, it is not consistent enough to bring you the results you want? Marketing your company is as important as what it is that you do. If you embrace that, you'll quit struggling so much and reach a whole other level of success!Prior to my business evolved into what it's now, I was trading my time for money.
