My Video Marketing Resolutions for 2017 (ep. 56)

2016 was a huge year for WireBuzz. After studying our prospects’ online engagement, examining their interests, and paying attention to their decisions, we discovered something that would change how we do business.

As a result, last year we closed 3X the number of deals and sped up our sales cycle by 67%.

But I still think we can do better.

So check out this episode to find out the most important lesson I learned in 2016, and how I plan to use that knowledge to improve my strategy for 2017.

You won’t want to miss my New Year’s business resolutions, and how you can use a similar approach to grow your business!
