🚪 Competitor Knocked on Our Client’s Door — Here’s What I Learned About Marketing Ethics

We had a unique (and honestly frustrating) experience recently during a client install: a competitor literally knocked on our client’s door while our van was parked outside.

It got me thinking — not just about what happened, but about how we all choose to market our businesses.

In this video, I share:

✅ Why I rely on SEO, Google Business Profile, and YouTube (and avoid yard signs, door hangers, and door knocking in Boulder)
✅ The story of what happened when a competitor tried to interrupt our install
✅ Why you need to market in ways that align with your values and brand
✅ The most important takeaway: test everything, measure ROI, and market where you feel comfortable

Marketing isn’t one-size-fits-all. It’s about finding the methods that fit your brand, your market, and your comfort level.
