EMAIL VS SOCIAL: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW WHEN BUILDING LONGEVITY IN YOUR BUSINESS

4/1/2024
We are talking about the distinct roles of email and social media (specifically Instagram) in business marketing. How do you market your business, and which method is best for YOU? The way to find out is figuring out how to specialize each platform's purpose — using social media for branding and first purchases, and email for deeper connections through upsell and cross-sell opportunities. I’m a big fan of the ownership mindset with email marketing, likening it to owning a house versus the temporary nature of social media, which is why I’ve always loved it.

ARE YOU BUILDING A BRAND, A BUSINESS, OR A FOLLOWING?

3/11/2024
We are exploring the distinctions between building a brand, a business, and a following, and don’t get it twisted — these are not interchangeable.

I’ll give you examples and highlight the importance of choosing which platform works best for you, how to stay true to your objectives in your business, and how to build the kind of audience for you. If you need to critically evaluate the marketing advice you’ve been given because you’ve been slammed with too much to do all at once, don’t worry, I got you. By the end of these you will know if what you need is to create a closely engaged community, establish a recognizable brand, or focus purely on business growth. ▶︎ Watch the Video Podcast Here! 00:00 — Introduction and Overview 00:34 — The Instagram Guru Myth 01:00 — Understanding Your Audience 02:46 — Building a Brand 05:23 — Building a Business 07:14 — Building a Following 09:44 — Understanding Your Goals and Tailoring Your Strategy 10:44 — Taking Ownership of Your Journey 13:51 — Conclusion and Final Thoughts Resources: ✦ Dial Zero Marketing ✦ Me Time ✦ DIEUX ✦ AS Colour ✦ Mad Happy _____ Into it?

I’ve come up with an equation that always works for getting to the salary where you start to thrive, and I’m sharing that tried-and-true method with you as well. After all, I know what it’s like to feel like our time is slipping away from us, and I’ve learned how to make the most of this limited resource that we all have.
