Welcome To The STORM
Practical Marketing Tips for Small and Medium Business Owners
Hey there, and welcome to our very first post!
If you run a small or medium business, you’re probably the owner, the accountant, the customer service rep… and now the marketer too. Figuring out how to get found on Google, run ads that actually make money, build an email list that works, and do it all on a realistic budget can feel impossible some days.
That’s exactly why we created this blog.
We’re Island Storm Marketing, a team that lives and breathes digital marketing for businesses just like yours: local shops, tradies, cafes, online stores, consultants, gyms… whatever you do. We stay on top of what’s working right now (and what’s a complete waste of time and money) so you don’t have to spend your nights scrolling marketing groups trying to keep up.
Every post here is written for you, with:
Clear, step-by-step advice you can put to work this week
Up-to-date tactics for Google, Facebook, Instagram, email, TikTok, and wherever your customers hang out
Free templates, checklists, and tools we actually use ourselves
Honest breakdowns of what’s worth spending money on in 2025 and what isn’t
Real-world examples that make sense for normal-sized businesses
No jargon. No endless essays. No pretending you need a big agency budget to see results.
This blog will always be 100% free and focused on giving you ideas you can use, whether you ever work with us or not.
Our first real tip-packed article drops in a couple of days. Bookmark the page or subscribe so you don’t miss it.
Got a marketing question that’s keeping you up at night? Drop it in the comments or send us a message. The topics you care about most will become future posts.
