The Useful Marketing Podcast with Paula Ronan

I've been working with Renske Ensing for about 2 and a half years now and I thought it was time to share her with others!

Renske has helped me over this time to take the steps I need to in order to get to my business goals, in particular to implement my marketing strategy.

In marketing, often the hardest thing is not coming up with great ideas but rather it's taking the actions to bring them to life.

Renske give us some really great advice in this episode - if you want to connect with her, she's on LinkedIn here - https://www.linkedin.com/in/renskeensing/
