From Ads to AI: How Email Marketing Can Transform Your Revenue in 90 Days with Cat Valverde

10/28/2024
In this episode of Business Chop, Audrey "Tech Diva" Wiggins interviews Cat Valverde, an email and revenue strategist and founder of Profeshh. Cat discusses her focus on email marketing as a high-return, low-cost alternative to traditional ads, especially with rising ad costs from AI developments like Google's Search GPT. By emphasizing transparency, personalization, and direct engagement, Cat has crafted email frameworks that help businesses, especially course creators and SaaS companies, leverage their email lists to generate substantial revenue—often reaching six figures in 60-90 days. Cat shares insights on ethically connecting with clients, stressing that personalized email interactions and AI tools like ChatGPT can re-engage inactive audiences effectively. She also advocates for using owned data (such as email lists) to avoid over reliance on platforms like Facebook, where algorithm shifts or account restrictions can suddenly limit reach. This strategic approach not only reduces costs but also creates partnerships and referral opportunities, boosting revenue and business resilience. Here are some key highlights from the episode: Cat combines AI tools like ChatGPT and Google’s upcoming Search GPT with email marketing, primarily for content brainstorming and keyword research. She notes that AI should serve as a supportive tool, not a replacement, allowing businesses to refine messaging while staying cost-effective. With ad prices increasing due to AI-driven changes, Cat encourages businesses to pivot back to email marketing as a high-ROI channel, moving away from solely relying on ads for lead generation. Cat invites listeners to her website, emailrevamp.com to access a free, 30-minute email marketing course. Send us a message Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!

Focus, creativity, and productivity suffer. Relationships with colleagues and customers suffer.

It’s Time to Soar with Audrey Wiggins

7/9/2024
As I sat there in my seat and listened to the plane start down the runway. Engines roaring and all the passengers anticipating the ascent to the lower atmosphere, awaiting cruising altitude when they can finally relax and take the seat belt off. Being an entrepreneur is quite a similar experience. We take off running; setting goals; perfecting our product and service. Getting all the licensing and other documents necessary to open and operate a business. Then something happens along the way. Not to everyone but to some of us. We get to the point of take off when everything is just right. We begin to go through the motions and BAM we stall. Doubts fears negative thoughts and emotions. Our engines choke. Imposter syndrome takes flight instead. If you are triggered by anything in this message please touch 988 or visit 988lifeline.org Now what? The day comes when we choose to start down that runway again. We’re unstoppable. We bring all the energy, experience and excitement of a new entrepreneur. This time we take off. We soar. We now believe what others have been saying all along because we now believe in ourselves and the great value we bring to the marketplace. Send me a message. Follow this podcast. Attend my business summits. Until next week…let’s fly together. Send us a message Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!
