As we step into 2025, I hope your holiday season left you feeling rested, rejuvenated, and ready to take on a new chapter.

The start of a new year often brings a flurry of ideas, shiny trends, and the urge to do all the things in your business. It’s easy to feel like you need to be everywhere at once, doing everything better and faster than before. But before you dive into the whirlwind, take a deep breath.

Let’s talk about the secret to sustainable success in your marketing: consistency.

Now, here’s the twist: true consistency is fueled by joy.

Think about it—research shows we’re far more likely to stick with activities we genuinely enjoy. On the flip side, forcing ourselves to slog through tasks we dread often leads to burnout, resentment, and lackluster results. (And let’s face it—when our heart isn’t in it, it shows.)

So, how do you balance the need for consistency with the desire for joy? By focusing on marketing activities that genuinely light you up.

Audit Your Marketing Through the Lens of Joy

This year, I challenge you to take an honest look at your marketing efforts. Ask yourself:

• What tasks make you feel energized and excited? Double down on those!
• What feels like a chore or drains your energy? If it’s not driving results, explore options like delegating, automating, or cutting it out entirely.

It’s easy to fall into the trap of doing things out of obligation, FOMO, or because “everyone else is doing it.” But chasing trends without intention doesn’t serve you—or your audience. Instead, focus on activities that:

• Feel fantastic: When you enjoy what you’re doing, your enthusiasm becomes contagious.
• Drive change for your audience: Are your efforts genuinely helping your ideal clients?
• Increase impact for your business: Are these actions moving the needle toward your goals?

What Brings You Joy in Marketing?

Ask yourself:

• What aligns with my strengths and passions?
• What marketing activities feel effortless and fun?

When you lean into what you love, you’ll not only stay consistent—you’ll thrive.

And if you’re feeling stuck or overwhelmed, don’t hesitate to reach out. Sometimes, all it takes is a fresh perspective to reignite your spark.

Here’s to a year of joyful, impactful marketing that feels as good as it performs. Let 2025 be the year you commit to what lights you up and leave the rest behind.
