[Special Episode] High-Level Marketing Strategies For Startups and Small Businesses with Andrew Miller

Andrew Miller

Welcome to another special episode of the Big Possible show. This episode is a highlight of an incredible four-day retreat in Marrakech, Morocco. Apart from producing great shows, the Big Possible hosts retreat in different exotic destinations and luxury villas around the world.

The speakers that come to the retreats are personally curated to deliver what the guests are looking for, such as how to grow your business, how to scale and remove yourself from day-to-day business, how to build a framework around your wellness, and make sure that you’re tapped into your ultimate happiness. This is a sample, not the full talk, and it has been shortened to give you a preview.

Andrew Miller’s talk on how you can grow your business with a small budget is just too good not to share, and that is what today’s episode is all about. Marketing is one of the major reasons early businesses fail, and if you get it figured out and honed in from the early stages, you can recover from anything else. Learn how to cultivate a marketing mindset, lay a strong marketing foundation, and tap into different types of marketing channels to move your business to the next level of growth.

Andrew Miller coaches young startups on how not to fail at marketing and has spent 15+ years building growth for young startups from Dubai to Silicon Valley. He has also lectured on Growth Hacking and Digital Marketing around the globe, worked with both 500startups and combination projects, led startup projects with multi-billion-dollar corporations, written for Startup Grind and Startup Nation, and even launched his own interactive online growth hacking course.
