  • 2026 Marketing Trends
    Jan 2 2026

    Send us a text

    Marketing is shifting—and 2026 will reward small business owners who are intentional, human, and strategic with how they show up.

    In this episode, I break down six key marketing trends shaping 2026, specifically for small businesses, solopreneurs, and entrepreneurs with lean teams (0–15 employees). These are not buzzwords or big-brand strategies—they’re practical shifts you can actually implement without a massive budget or staff.

    We talk about how AI and human creativity work together to differentiate your brand, why collaborations and shared audiences are becoming one of the fastest paths to growth, and how smaller, intentional events are outperforming large conferences when it comes to trust and conversions.

    I also cover why short-form video still matters—but long-form content is making a comeback, how search is evolving beyond keywords into conversational, multi-format discovery, and why turning your brand into an experience (not just content) is essential for standing out in today’s crowded digital space.

    If you’re planning your 2026 marketing strategy, feeling overwhelmed by trends, or trying to grow your visibility without burning out, this episode will help you focus on what actually works—and what to stop chasing.

    🎧 Perfect for:

    • Small business owners
    • Coaches, consultants, and service providers
    • Entrepreneurs building a personal brand
    • Leaders planning ahead for 2026

    👉 Listen in and choose one trend to start implementing now—because momentum beats perfection every time.

    If your marketing feels inconsistent, it’s probably not your offer...it’s how you’re thinking about your target market.

    In this episode, marketing strategist and coach Sharvette Mitchell breaks down what a target market really is and why it’s more than just demographics or job titles. You’ll learn how your audience actually falls into three categories—hot, warm, and cold—and how each group requires a different content marketing approach to move them from awareness to action.

    Whether you’re a professional service provider, coach, consultant, speaker, or entrepreneur, this conversation will help you market with more intention.

    👉 Ready to apply this strategy to your own business?
