It can be nerve-wracking for an agency trying to develop a bespoke project for a small and medium sized business that is competing with the big players in the industry. There are lots to consider including factors such as limited budget, website, digital footprint and social media presence. Wow!

This outstandingly incredible episode with Jason Barnard and Nat Rosasco discusses how to create a "wow" project for your clients (small and medium businesses) that not only impresses them, but helps them compete with larger companies. Nat shares brilliant tips for creating a website, aligning budget to expectations, cutting development time and costs in half, and choosing the right fonts, colours, calls to action, hero banners, personal branding, corporate branding, and more. Nat explains how he uses geo-targeting to optimise his clients' businesses and ultimately help them get on the first page of search engine results. Jason also explains that one business can not serve all customers and that it's important to figure out who you are really relevant to so you can focus on that and then potentially expand as your business grows.

As always, the show ends with passing the baton… Nat passes the virtual baton to next week’s delightful guest, Allison Riggs.
