If your marketing plan is basically “post when I remember and hope for the best,” this episode is for you. Brandy and Jodi break down how to move from chaos to calendar with a simple, repeatable marketing rhythm that small business owners can actually stick to.

They talk through what chaotic marketing really looks like, why a weekly marketing huddle matters, and how to build a content calendar without making it complicated. You’ll also hear a realistic weekly checklist you can steal, plus a reminder that consistency beats last-minute scrambling every time.

This episode is for business owners who are tired of feeling behind, overwhelmed, and reactive in their marketing and want a better system that works in real life.

In this episode:

• The difference between chaos marketing and calendar marketing

• How to run a 15-minute weekly marketing huddle

• Simple content pillars that make posting easier

• A basic weekly posting rhythm for small businesses

• A realistic checklist to keep your marketing moving

Small, steady changes win. You do not need to rebuild your whole brand in one weekend. You need a plan, a rhythm, and a calendar you will actually use. Grounding the episode around “chaos to calendar,” short huddles, and consistency also lines up with Kemp’s core business framework and values.

If your marketing feels like a messy junk drawer full of half used tools, random tactics, and things you started but never finished, this episode is for you.

This month on our social media we have been talking about spring cleaning your marketing, and today Brandy and Jody break it down in a simple way any business owner can do without a marketing degree.

Spring cleaning your marketing does not mean you need a brand new website, a full rebrand, or a huge advertising budget. Most businesses do not need more marketing. They need clarity, organization, and better systems.

In this episode we walk through how to audit the core pieces of your marketing and decide what should stay, what needs improvement, and what needs to go.

We cover:

• How to quickly evaluate your website in under five minutes
• The biggest mistake businesses make on social media
• Why your Google Business Profile matters more than most owners realize
• The simple way to track where your customers are actually coming from
• How to identify marketing activities that bring real leads vs guilt marketing
• The three column system we use with clients: Keep, Fix, Toss

You will also learn why consistency across online listings matters, why most businesses ignore local search signals, and how small adjustments can improve your marketing without rebuilding everything.

Grab a notebook and follow along as we help you clean up the marketing clutter and focus on what actually grows your business.

If you want help going deeper, this type of monthly marketing audit is exactly what our team does for our clients to keep their marketing clear, effective, and working together.

This week’s challenge:
Pick one marketing junk drawer in your business and clean it out.

In this episode of The Marketing Shakedown, Brandy and Jodi walk you through a simple weekend audit to fix the basics of your online presence before you spend another dollar on ads.

Most small businesses are leaking leads because of confusing websites, neglected social media, and weak Google Business Profiles. Use this episode as a coffee-and-couch checklist to clean it up fast.

You’ll learn how to:

• Run a 5 second test on your website

• Fix your homepage headline and calls to action

• Spot slow, cluttered, or hard to use pages

• Clean up your social bios, photos, and posting habits

• Use reviews (good and bad) to build trust

• Do a simple “weekend fix it” plan for your website, socials, and Google Business Profile

Take before and after screenshots of your website, social profiles, or Google Business Profile and email them to bkp@brandykemp.com with the subject AUDIT.

We’ll send you a quick checklist and, if you want, give you feedback on what you updated.
