Let’s be real—when you’re starting a business, “marketing” can sound expensive and overwhelming. But what if the best way to get noticed isn’t about big budgets or fancy funnels? In this episode, Deanna sits down with Rachel Smith and Dalton Joyner, two creative entrepreneurs who are all about thinking outside the box—especially when it comes to getting your name out there.

You’ll hear how Rachel Smith and Dalton Joyner use direct mail in a way that’s smart, affordable (sometimes free!), and makes you unforgettable in your community. From sticky postcards that end up on the fridge to tapping into local business networks, they share strategies for marketing without draining your wallet. Plus, they’ll break down how you can leverage community resources—sometimes, it’s as simple as asking the diner owner if you can leave a flyer near the register.

If you’re someone who dreams of more freedom, or you’re tired of feeling invisible in your bookkeeping business, don’t miss this uplifting and practical conversation. You’ll walk away with new ideas, renewed confidence, and the reminder that marketing doesn’t have to be scary—or expensive—to work.
