Rank #7: Marketing in 2018 for Watches

I go over the issues that the watch industry is dealing with in terms of marketing. Stop marketing to the new generation of digital. Focus and double down on your strengths. Stop story telling in 2018 the way you marketed in 2002. I go over some major major ideas that micro brands and major brands today can do to bring awareness and attract more people in 2018. Definitely don’t miss this episode if you’re a microbrand or you’re thinking of starting a watch company.

Rank #18: Increase Efficiency with 80/20

Fellow independent watchmakers ask me a lot this question “How Can I Make More Money as a Watchmaker?” I can’t nitpick certain things that you guys do but I can definitely offer some principles that have helped me. First one being the 80/20 principle. Pareto’s Law. When in doubt, ask yourself these two questions: “What 20% of the work is yielding me 80% of the results?” And “If I only had a couple hours to work on my craft each week, what would I work on to bring in the most amount of results?” I fundamentally feel that if you get to the bare bones of these two questions, you’ll figure out the solution to your money problem. _______ Visit: http://www.nobswatchmaker.com for more info.
