The Justin Theng Chronicles

Hey there, Trailblazing SME Founders,
Justin Theng, your captain for today's journey, coming at ya from the vast galaxy of marketing strategy! π Now, I've been stargazing and I see a comet - an opportunity, fleeting for some, but a beacon of light for those ready to chase it:
Longevity.
π Staying Power in a Flash-in-the-Pan World
Remember the tale of the tortoise and the hare? Spoiler alert: The tortoise won. It wasnβt because he had the latest Nikes or because he trained with Usain Bolt; he had the vision of longevity. When others hibernate, thereβs an open field for you to shine brighter, to soar higher.
1οΈβ£ Keep Fueling the Rocket Ship
While others might be conserving their rocket fuel, you? You're just getting started. Throughout history, the greatest explorers β the brands that are household names today β boldly invested in their journey, especially when the universe got tough. Up your ad game now, and you'll be the first to hit warp speed when the stars realign.
2οΈβ£ Efficient Engines are Happy Engines
Your rocket ship (aka your business) has multiple engines, but not all are created equal. π If one engine (say, Facebook) is propelling you to galaxies far, far away while another (oh, Twitter) is sputtering out cosmic dust, you know where to allocate more fuel. Optimize, fine-tune, and keep that ship humming!
3οΈβ£ Rally Your Crew
Your loyal customers? They're your astronauts, your space crew, your guardians of the galaxy. They've been with you through asteroid fields and black holes. Why not reward their galactic loyalty? Maybe a loyalty badge (program), some cosmic treats (special deals), or even bonuses when they bring fellow space travelers (referrals) aboard your ship.
πͺ Charting the Cosmic Conclusion πͺ
To all you SME Founders piloting through the vast expanse of the business universe: Remember, it's not about the short sprints or dodging meteor showers. It's about the odyssey, the journey that spans light-years. Prepare for the long haul, and you won't just see the stars β you'll be among them.
Until the next celestial encounter,
Captain Justin Theng π π
