Ways to Market Your Business Before You Open

Are you wondering how to market your business before opening?

Starting a new business is one of the most exciting and challenging adventures you can take. But once you’ve checked off the basics—like setting up your website, creating your social media accounts, and securing your location—how do you effectively market your business before it officially opens?

Whether you’re a small business owner launching a brick-and-mortar store or an online service, I’ll share practical, actionable strategies to help you build excitement, connect with your ideal audience, and set the stage for a successful grand opening.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

✅ How to create buzz and let people know your business exists—even before you open your doors.

✅ Marketing tips for brick-and-mortar businesses, like connecting with other local businesses, building a referral network, and using foot traffic to your advantage.

✅ Creative behind-the-scenes ideas to showcase your brand’s personality and journey (even if your business isn’t “photogenic”).

✅ How to use tools like a Google Business Profile and online directories to boost your visibility in local and niche markets.

Why This Matters

Marketing a business before it opens isn’t just about getting people in the door on day one—it’s about building long-term relationships with your audience and creating a community of loyal customers who are excited to support you from the very beginning.
