Confident Content: How To Tell a Business Story (Part Two)

6/13/2024
Storytelling in business can be very simple, or a little more complex. The key is to really understand WHY you are telling the story, and what the expected takeaway will be for your ideal audience. This means being selective with what you talk about, and why. The wrong stories can attract the wrong clients! I’m Rachel Klaver, a content marketing coach who loves telling stories to help people understand and lead. I’ve told stories to explain concepts to everyone fro two year olds to ninety year olds. And I love helping small business owners learn how to tell great stories. This is part two in this little series on storytelling. In this episode we take a look at two other story frameworks you can use to tell stories, and give an example of both. Stories get you the clients you need. Stories help you be remembered Stories can become part of your core marketing message Stories are powerful So let’s plan a story together. (I’m taking a little break from Confident Content - to develop content for a future series here. I want to go deeper into subjects and topics I know you need. I’ll be back with a new series soon!)

Confident Content: How To Tell a Business Story

6/6/2024
I love a good story. Best thing I ever did for my business was start prioritizing fiction in my reading to give my brain breaks for work thoughts. I love a pretend good story, but I especially love a enticing real story with real people doing real things. Storytelling is such an overused term in marketing, and it’s become almost meaningless in marketing speak. But stories are powerful. I’m Rachel Klaver, a content marketing coach who loves telling stories to help people understand and lead. I’ve told stories to explain concepts to everyone for two year olds to ninety year olds. And I love helping small business owners learn how to tell great stories. In this episode we look at why we need stories, and we walk through how to build a story on a simple framework (We’re going to do this topic over a few episodes as I don’t want to rush you!) Stories get you the clients you need. Stories help you be remembered Stories can become part of your core marketing message Stories are powerful In this episode we cover: Important Links Come to Rachel’s Free content strategy workshops Register interest for Rachel’s content coaching programme Get a FREE copy of THE MARKETING FIX Rachel’s SUBSTACK Rachel’s YouTube Channel Join the My MAP IT Marketing Strategy School Become a part of our Facebook group Buy your copy of Be a Spider, Build a Web See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Confident Content: What Happens When You Give Your Psychographic Profile To ChatGPT (Part 4)

5/23/2024
One of my favorite parts of having a detailed psychometric profile is being able to load it up into chatGPT, and then asking it to help me work out what type of content marketing I can do. Yes, some of it is not the best. Yes I’ll always rewrite the content it produces. But getting it to generate ideas using an in depth profile helps you target your audience in fresh ways you may not have thought of My name is Rachel Klaver, and I care about your marketing. I’m a content marketing strategist and coach who’s never liked the straight demographic approach to marketing. I see so many small business owners not getting deep enough with looking at the whole of the person who buys from them so this series is helping you work this stuff out yourself if you can. In this episode we’re going to look at how I got chatGPT to find holes in my profiling and several ways I’ve always helped me create some simple videos with my newly minted client psychographic profile. I’ll also talk a little about how I like to work with chatGPT on this type of work - and how I get a better level of results. I have learned that chatGPT works better WITH my brain, rather than instead of it NOTE: Please do take the time to listen to parts one to three if you don’t have a psychographic profile.

Confident Content: Psychographic Profiling (Part 3) - Where To Get The Infomation

5/16/2024
Having a super robust psychographic profile of your ideal customer (you may need one per offer, or a few for your business over all) can help you better create content, decide where to spend your marketing time and energy, and develop further products and services that you know they will love (making your business easier to grow) When I look at one of mine, it immediately helps me think of content that best fits their needs and is going to attract people like my current ideal clients. I have two overlapping sets of common types - and tend to talk to them both on slightly different platforms, with email currently blending the two together (this may change in the future) The more I dig into talking to the whole of my ideal persona, the more my content hits the mark faster. And the more engagement I get on my posts. It helps me talk to pain points, share bliss, In the last two episodes we’ve broken down exactly what you look at when developing a profile. In this episode we look at the different ways you can collect the information and data you need to make an as accurate as possible picture. If you know you want more of your ideal clients, then this is a great place to start. Let's work out how to get collecting, so we can create content that makes more of an impact and grows our business.

Confident Content: What We're Looking At When We Use Psychographics in Marketing (Part 2)

5/9/2024
What are the common personality traits of your ideal customer? And what values do they hold that make buying from you such a great fit? This is part two of a series on using Psychographics to determine your ideal audience. We’re going to talk about how to choose the right ones in part three, but today we’re digging deep on what areas you can look like, with real examples you can note down and look at This episode before this focused on Lifestyle, Hobbies and Interests. Please do listen to that one and this to get the full picture of what you should be looking for. If you’re a new business, I recommend just working through this list and making a stab in the dark. You can change or adapt it as you go, grow and determine where it’s not sitting right. However for more established businesses, the next episode will go through to find out this information so you’ve got a clear image based on real data as much as possible. Using the categories we discuss in this podcast can help you determine your content, pulling out commonalities in your ideal customer’s interests and curating content around this. It can help shape your messaging and know how to talk best to your ideal customer Essentially, we tap into finding common ground which goes far beyond “we’re the same age” or “we live in the same city” Grab a pen and pencil and take notes as we break down how to determine who your target ideal customer really is In this episode we cover: Important Links Come to Rachel’s Free content strategy workshops Register interest for Rachel’s content coaching programme Get a FREE copy of THE MARKETING FIX Rachel’s SUBSTACK Rachel’s YouTube Channel Join the My MAP IT Marketing Strategy School Become a part of our Facebook group Buy your copy of Be a Spider, Build a Web See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Confident Content: What We're Looking At When We Use Psychographics in Marketing (Part 1)

5/2/2024
This topic was decided upon after I got myself into a wee argument with an anonymous account on Tiktok. I’ve been creating some content around thriving during the recession as a small business owner and this person made the comment that “all anyone needs to do is focus on selling to Boomers” Well if only marketing was that simple! Yes, it’s true that some people in the Boomer generation are well placed to spend money. But there’s money to be found in every generation. I’m not a fan of marketing to straight demographics - and have talked about that before. This is part one of a series on using Psychographics to determine your ideal audience. We’re going to talk about how to choose the right ones in a future episode, but today we’re digging deep on what areas you can look like, with real examples you can note down and look at This episode focuses on Lifestyle, Hobbies and Interests. (Our next episode drills down on personality traits and values) All of these are important elements to cover.

Confident Content: Building Business Success with Virtual Assistant Help - with Sarah Greener

4/25/2024
If you’re a business owner with big dreams, at some point you’re going to need more help than just you to reach them. Using outsourced help can feel scary initially as it’s all about investing in something and someone else who will have control over areas you’ve always run But this gives you more time, capacity and energy to not only focus on what you do best, but to get more of your time for other things you love. In today’s Confident Content episode we talk to business coach Sarah Greener about her journey with VAs, and what she’s learned about herself, her business and how to get the best out of her outsourced help If you’ve got this on your radar, or you know you want to have this as a goal, sit back and have a listen - there’s a lot of hard won knowledge shared in this episode.

Confident Content Live Coaching: Growing a Following as an Artist - with Bernadette Ballantyne

4/11/2024
What’s the next steps in growing a small business where some of your work is products, and some of it is one of pieces? This is the question I helped Benadette Ballantyne answer for her art business in today’s live coaching session Bernadette Ballantyne is mother of two residing in Waikato. After a career as a teacher, she managed to turn my passion for art, into a full-time gig and resigned from teaching in 2022. In her commission based art business, she specialises in soft pastel portrait drawings, focusing mainly on both pets and people. She also produces her own original artworks to sell and produce fine art prints. In this coaching session we walked through what her goals are and whether they are reflected in her marketing. I gave her some ways to grow areas of her business. Part of Berandette’s actions was to “show what she needs to grow” As you listen to this episode, perhaps you can check your own marketing too - are you showing what you need to grow?

Confident Content: What Needs To Be Behind “I Need Help with Social Media”

4/4/2024
One of the worst things you can waste your money on as a small business owner is outsourced marketing. And the two biggest sucks of money are often SEO and social media marketing. Before all those offering those services come at me, I do often recommend outsourced help to small business owners. I’m not opposed to people getting help at the right stage. But what makes my nose crinkle up in distaste and I let out a deep sigh of frustration is the number of times I’ve worked with a small business owner who’s laid out a heap of money with little to no impact. Sometimes it’s worse. The content is so far removed from the business’ values, voice and offer that it’s doing the opposite of what’s intended. When people approach me for marketing, they often say they want help with “learning how to do my social media” I know I could make money doing just that. But I know that there is stuff we need to check and sort first. Because I can train anyone on “how” to use social media, and what to post. But what I really care about is “will it make your business grow?” Today we’re walking through the areas I look at with my one on one clients, before we go anywhere near social media. If you know you need to get better results from your social media - or work out why that outsourced solution isn’t getting you the results you need, then this episode is for you.

Confident Content: How To Get a Sale From That Marketing Lead - with Natalie Tolphoff

3/28/2024
I adore content marketing because it makes getting hot leads coming in at scale, with low to no cost marketing, a completely possible experience. With a sticky content web, talking to all parts of the customer journey, you can attract, build a relationship with, and convert completely from your marketing. If you’re a service based business you may also need to have a one on one meeting to talk details, dates and get them over the line. That’s where many small business owners get into problems There’s no point getting those beautiful content marketing leads if you can’t convert them to a sale. Yes, hopefully your content has done all the heavy lifting for you. But you still need to have a robust sales process. When it comes to sales, how would you score yourself on the “I can convert this into a sale” equation. If you know this is an area you need help in, then today’s episode is all for you. Today I talk to Natalie Tolphoff. Many female small business owners in New Zealand and beyond will be familiar with Nat’s no-bullshit, motivational style. She’s well known for teaching business owners to cultivate powerful self-belief and become confident selling in a simple, authentic, and successful way Natalie and I share many of the same values when it comes to serving our audience - but we present them in a completely different way. I love we both share a dedication to help our clients take consistent action, to drop the need to be perfect, and see a growth in revenue (and that beautiful thing called profit! ) with confidence. If you know you need a butt-kicking reminder to get your sales sorted this year, consider this episode that exactly. Let’s get started.

Confident Content: How to Increase Engagement From Your Content to Get Better Results

3/21/2024
There’s nothing worse than creating content that just attracts the sound of crickets. And look - it’s going to happen to all of us in some capacity at some stage, and that’s normal. What’s not normal or good is if it happens nearly every time you post. We need to get engagement on our posts to build out a community. And there’s lots of ways you can do that! My name is Rachel Klaver and I am a content marketing coach. I work with small business owners to help them create effective and sales making content that builds their business. Which includes… increasing that engagement. We can do this in a mix of relatable, controversial or educational content. (and even then there’s a few hooks!) Not ever post is designed to have incredible engagement of course (and we’ll cover that in the podcast) but we want to get it on the ones that matter. We’ll go through the key types of engagement building content, we’ll look at what I don’t count as engagement (no vanity stuff here) and how to use engagement to also improve your content!

Confident Content: Getting That Essential Camera Confidence for Content - with Michelle Sokolich

3/14/2024
Hi - my name is Rachel Klaver and I’m a content marketing coach and strategist for small business owners. If you’ve seen my content you know I love cameras. But it wasn’t always like that. Yes, as a young child I loved performing, but adolescents and early adult life really robbed me of my confidence. When I started my business, the last thing I wanted to do was turn up on video or show my face. Now, I love it. In fact, a dirty little secret… I find being in front of the camera one of my happy places. But I know that’s not normal for many. If you know you need to get more camera confident this year, this episode is most definitely for you Today I talked to Michelle Sokolich. She’s been someone I’ve admired for a long time in terms of her video work - and it’s my goal one day to find the right project to work with her on. (so I’m a fan girl!) Michelle believes every business has a story…and sharing your story through video has the power to move your customers, to create an honest connection so they feel like they know you before they walk through the door. After Directing and Producing in television for 16 years, Michelle founded Show & Tell so she could share the human stories behind the business world. Here brand stands for realness, empathy, passion…and above all a love of visual storytelling. (you can see why I’m so excited to have her on this podcast!) Michelle wants to help you grow your business by standing out from the crowd. She creates authentic and emotive video content for well-known NZ brands, and teaches people online to get in front of the camera and create their own marketing videos with their phone. Michelle and I share so much in common with our love of helping small business owners (and specially women) really learn to find their confident centre, love the body they are in, and learn to take hold of the power of being unashamedly yourself. (Oh and she also co host an awesome podcast called BodAlmighty which is all about loving the skin you’re in.

Confident Content: My content strategy for launching my course in 2024

3/7/2024
I’m using the phrase “Imagine how thankful March Rachel will be if you do this now” when working on my marketing tasks at the moment. I’m looking at a very booked March and April, and anything I do now to ensure my marketing goes on no matter what is going to make that easier. I’m not naturally good at working ahead. My ADHD and my propensity to over book my calendar, coupled with my distincy love of no work nights and weekends means that it’s much more preferable to wing it. But I’ve learned the hard way what happens when I drop the marketing balls for too long. So batching to work ahead has become one of the tools I use. It works for me because high on my motivational chart is time freedom. I’ll do anything now to give me time later. I’ve got books to read, beaches to walk and puppies to cuddle. All of that is worth pushing through right now. Along with the core motivation of time freedom, I’m also motivated by two other common motivators. Meeting our sales goals (so we and our team get paid), and being able to develop creatively. (which also needs both time and money.) Working out what your core motivators are can help you get your marketing done more consistently. Today we walk through what the common core motivators are and how you cna use them to work out what type of content might be easiest for you to make In this episode we cover: Important Links Come to Rachel’s Free content strategy workshops Register interest for Rachel’s content coaching programme Get a FREE copy of THE MARKETING FIX Rachel’s SUBSTACK Rachel’s YouTube Channel Join the My MAP IT Marketing Strategy School Become a part of our Facebook group Buy your copy of Be a Spider, Build a Web Important Links Come to Rachel’s Free content strategy workshops Register interest for Rachel’s content coaching programme Get a FREE copy of THE MARKETING FIX Rachel’s SUBSTACK Rachel’s YouTube Channel Join the My MAP IT Marketing Strategy School Become a part of our Facebook group Buy your copy of Be a Spider, Build a Web See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We take a look at some of the things Perzen is already doing, what she needs to prioritise and what is possible with email marketing automation.

I want Perzen and you to get more sales from your emails in 2024.

Confident Content: From Cringe to Creative Content - with Leanne Shelton

2/22/2024
My brain started to switch off when I read content created by AI. There are tells. And I swipe on by. That’s not the worst of it though. I have also noticed I trust that brand a little less. I feel less connected to it. I can’t see “what’s the point?” It’s becoming very obvious that our brains are learning what is human and what is not. Today I talk to Leanne Shelton, a marketer who decided last year to embrace and dive down deep into the waters of AI and see how it could best serve businesses and marketers in Australia and beyond. Leanne helps us see the hidden dangers of using chatGPT without reading it aloud for sense, and we talk about the long term damage we can cause to our brand is we use it as it is written With both Leanne and I as avid users of chatGPT we’re both huge advocates of using it right, to help enhance your personal voice, stand out from the crowd. To do that, we also need to expel the cringe factor once and for all.. Find out how to expel the cringe and find the creative with chatGPT in this week’s episode of Confident Content In this episode we cover: Important Links Come to Leanne and Rachel’s chatGPT masterclass Come to Rachel’s Free content strategy workshops Register interest for Rachel’s content coaching programme Get a FREE copy of THE MARKETING FIX Rachel’s SUBSTACK Rachel’s YouTube Channel Join the My MAP IT Marketing Strategy School Become a part of our Facebook group Buy your copy of Be a Spider, Build a Web See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Confident Content: My Content Strategy For/launching My Course in 2024

2/15/2024
Before you even start to write your course you should think about how you’re going to market it. Big call I know, but here’s the thing… If you exert all your energy on creating the course, you’ll forget to make sure people know about it and buy it. Your marketing needs to be closely aligned with your course creation. And it will actually help you create a better course! Hi - my name is Rachel Klaver and I’m a content marketing coach and strategist for small business owners. I’ve just shut down a course I’ve had over 600 small business owners through since 2020, because I’m about to build a better, more up to date and aligned course with a different delivery model. I wanted to take you on the journey of what I’m doing to both market this course, build desire for it and why I’m changing from a “all the time entry” to a launch date strategy for this particular model My launch plan could be used by you too for your course The key is to build an audience, build desire, plan on how to get those first people in the door, and how to maximise those first ones to build for future launches. If you’ve got a course launch on the horizon, or you’re trying to work out how to improve on previous launches, then this is the episode for you.

Confident Content: How To Unlock Your Website’s Superpowers- with Iona Elwood-Smith

2/8/2024
We know we need a website for our business, but are we expecting less from it than we should? Back in the day people used to call websites a “brochure.” While some people still just see it as a must have “expensive flyer on the internet”, it can and should be so much more than that. I like to see a website as your storefront or welcoming office. A place where people walk in (land on) and know they are in the right place, it’s a good feeling, they get you AND they can ask for help, book a time or buy from you right there and then. Let me ask you a question - is that the experience you’re having with YOUR website? If not, this episode is for you. A good website can help you generate thousands and thousands of dollars in revenue - and it doesn’t need to be a super expensive website to make that happen Today I talk to Iona Elwood-Smith, the founder and owner of Grow My Business, a website company in Wellington, New Zealand with a speciality in helping service-based business owners get a website that helps make them money. Iona and I both share a love of having converting content on websites, but we also both know that you need to have some other things in place working on your website for it to become that trust building, lead generating powerhouse of a salesperson for your business If you’d like your website to do more of the heavy lifting, then this episode is for you.

Confident Content: The Marketing Mindset Blocks Holding You Back (Part 1)

2/1/2024
Are you terrified of failing? Worried to show your less than perfect efforts? Scared if someone's there ready to stand and shout LIAR LIAR every time you show up? (Queue The Princess Bride fans!) Or perhaps the technical stuff just gets you anxious, you feel too busy, or things marketing just tie you up in knots. What if it all starts with a mindset issue making this stuff harder than it needs to be? And what if by shifting that a little, you open up new ways of getting the clients and customers you really want to work with, and get them coming to you ready to buy? How good would that be? There are piles of different mindset blacks we can have when it comes to content marketing, and I’m about to help you identify which ones you might be struggling with. Mindset growth is a lifetime journey. There’s always more than one new ceiling we can push against, one more mountain we can move to make our path smoother. If you know you’ve got bigger things ahead, and your mindset blocks around content and content marketing are getting in the way, then tuning into this episode could be the initial push you need to get that mindset moving upwards and bigger than before. Let’s dig in and find out.

1/25/2024
If you are extremely time poor, and need to make sure your content marketing works, but isn’t going to take up too much time then this is the episode for you. Today I help my client Siobhan Richards find a manageable way for her to ensure your marketing is regular and converting as she runs her business alongside a busy full time job, and her role as a parent. Siobhan does the marketing for her business Home of Huggles, who custom make and sell waterproof sheeting and pillow slips. She does this role alongside a job that requires a lot of travel and hours, and it’s easy to let things slide when there’s a busy patch. Dropping your marketing doesn’t feel bad right away, but several months down the road it starts to hurt sales Our goal in this session was to help find a simple, and achievable path to help her create content without burning out We focused on email and digital marketing, and made a plan that other small business owners will also find super useful In this episode we cover: Important Links Discover Home of Huggles Buy my content marketing planner Come to Rachel’s Free content strategy workshops Register interest for Rachel’s content coaching programme Get a FREE copy of THE MARKETING FIX Rachel’s SUBSTACK Rachel’s YouTube Channel Join the My MAP IT Marketing Strategy School Become a part of our Facebook group Buy your copy of Be a Spider, Build a Web See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
