#73: What I’m Not Doing to Market My Business This Summer

Lindsay Smith

Summer brings sunshine, chaos, and... two kids home full time. In this episode of Content Magic, I’m walking you through exactly how I’m keeping my marketing strategy light, flexible, and totally doable this summer.

If you’re a small business owner wondering how to balance marketing and real life without burning out, this one’s for you.

In this episode, I’m sharing:

  • My “just enough” marketing plan for the summer months
  • Why I’m focusing on long-form content like podcasts and blog posts
  • How I batch my emails to feel like I have my life together (even when I don’t)
  • Why I’m letting go of Instagram guilt—and what I’m doing instead
  • The unexpected platform that’s giving me life right now (hint: Threads)
  • A real-life reminder to adjust your strategy based on your actual life

Plus, I talk about:

  • What I’m not doing (no TikTok, no big launches, no pressure)
  • How I repurpose my “big idea” content into social media bites
  • The importance of setting realistic expectations for your season of life

Whether you’ve got toddlers or travel plans, this episode will help you simplify your marketing—without ghosting your audience or your business goals.
