Summary
Tune in for this special Halloween "whodunnit" murder mystery episode! Like so many small businesses, Penelope Featherbottom's business has died. The doors have closed and all that's left is the carnage of what used to be a thriving soap business. When Business Detective Dr. J.J. Peterson (host of the Marketing Made Simple Podcast) arrives on the scene, he helps Don piece together clues to solve this dreadful mystery so that it never happens to anyone else.
Was the cause of death a mission statement that nobody cared about? Or was it pushy sales tactics and a confusing marketing message? J.J. investigates the tragedy using Business Made Simple's 6-step framework, finally uncovering the culprit that killed Penelope's business. Listen in to discover the cause of this horror so that it never happens to you!
