Today… Let’s get straight to the point.
Relying on one thing in business is a trap.
Whether it’s:
One source of leads
One big client
One marketing channel
You’re playing a risky game. And when that “one” gets taken away?
You’re left panicking.
Here’s The Hard Truth:
ONE is the most dangerous number in business.
Think about it:
One key employee leaves
One big client moves on
One ad platform bans your account
And suddenly, everything stops working.
Why This Happens
It’s tempting to stick with what works.
Maybe it’s Google ads, maybe it’s Meta ads, or maybe it’s referrals. That success can make you overlook the weaknesses in your system. Everything seems fine, until it’s not.
The Hard Lesson
When the cracks start to show, it’s easy to point fingers.
The platform’s policies, the client’s budget cuts, the economy.
Here’s the tough truth: it’s your fault for not spreading things out.
You weren’t unlucky. You were unprepared.
How to Make Your Marketing Hard to Kill
The solution?
Treat every “ONE” in your business as a ticking time bomb.
Instead of relying on one thing, spread your bets:
If Meta ads work? Start testing YouTube and Google.
If paid ads work? Add cold email, referral systems, or even direct mail.
If online channels dominate? Consider offline strategies like events or partnerships.
It’s not just about adding more things randomly, it’s about having backups. If one channel fails, the others can keep things running.
A System That Can’t Be Stopped
Broadening isn’t just a nice idea, it’s the only way to build a business that lasts. A system where no single failure can cripple you.
Because let’s face it: in business, everything that can go wrong eventually will go wrong. The question is, will you be ready?
So, take a hard look at your marketing strategy. Identify your “ones.” And start building a system that’s impossible to kill.
