Nurturing a Culture of Growth: Internal Marketing Strategies for Success

Nurturing a Culture of Growth: Internal Marketing Strategies for Success

In the fast-paced world of business, the focus on external marketing often overshadows the critical role of internal communication. Your employees are not mere spectators; they are integral to the success and growth of your organization.
It’s essential to view your employees as partners rather than just workers. Remind them of the passion that initially drew them to your business. Share the reasons behind decisions, the highs, and the lows of the business journey. Transparent communication builds a foundation of loyalty, fostering a culture of growth within your organization.
When employees feel like active contributors to the company’s success, they go beyond the call of duty. They are not working just to keep their jobs; they are invested in making the business flourish. This shift in mindset, inspired by internal marketing strategies, nurtures a culture of growth.
By recognizing the value of internal marketing, businesses can transform their workforce into a cohesive unit working towards shared goals. This approach not only enhances employee satisfaction but also propels the company towards sustained success and growth.

The DMVFood Experiment....Interviewing area eateries!!

When I first started making film, and it hasn’t been that long. Side story prior to doing this I worked for UPS for a very very long time….I left to chase a dream to make a film (which I have made five award-winning ones to date that can be seen on Hulu, Amazon, and HBO)……

Anywho, I loved CNN’s “parts unknown,” and I wanted to try and produce my own little version. These five interviews were my first “try” at telling stories through video, I think.. I did most of these around 2011 / 2012, but the experience and things I learned producing these helped me in my business as it showed me how to produce, meet people, and tell stores.

I still had a lot to learn, but the stories were good, and fun……….take a look at the videos all are not longer then five minutes and hopefully, you will have time to taste some of the food from the ones that are still around even if only by delivery.


DMV Food ....Recipes

The Idea….

With the current pandemic going on and the video production industry in freefalll, this has given me tons of time to go through old videos and see what I was doing years ago. Actually, I’m going to post these videos over the next few days, and they are ones I had lost, and just like going through old albums, it’s a cross of disbelief, “I’m never showing this to anyone” and “Oh yeah remember that.”

So hopefully, you enjoy some of the stuff, as I think it will be at least entertaining.

So here is my first video, it’s actually my first reel. IF you don’t know what a reel is, it is supposed to be the combination of your best work that you show to prospective clients in order to get work. I watched this thing a thousand times when I made it as I couldn’t believe I even had one….

It’s funny as there are so many first in this video…the check thing was my first job with TJ Max and Homestore it was surreal as I was still working a day job at the time, and I had to take a lunch break to film the grand opening in Georgetown. It was such a big deal that my parents came out to see me work (hahaha)….Oooohhhhh the dodge challenger commercial!! That was my first car commercial actually I had a friend you told their manager I do video as they were looking for a local production shot for their website…it was so guerilla-style as at the time I only had a camera and a mic, in the end, that’s all you need but showing up to a set with just you, a book bag, and a mic…and your client asking where are your lights…was definitely a learning experience……
