And he used Facebook and social media management practices to do it, which makes it very, very interesting and I’m sure, you’re very interested to find out how He started out So guys join me in saying Hello, Rachit, Hey Disha. What’s up How Are you doing I’m doing great? How are you doing I’m keeping well? Thank you. Okay, so thank you so much for joining us today. It’s great to have you here, The Pleasure is mine Disha.

I know it is Rachit. I know it is Anyway, I’m going to get straight to the first question, So I Know that you don’t have a background in marketing, You are an engineer by Profession and yet you choose social media marketing as a career. So what Exactly influenced you to choose it as a career or get into the field of social Media Well, first and foremost, I, like I like people I like dealing with people, And I’m very fond of technology and along the way, I think I like being Backstage working on a product or service and seeing it come to life, and I Think, somewhere along the way, you know a bridge between technology, people and Marketing got me into digital marketing.

We you Know the story about you, starting out your first gig as a social media. Marketer was when you were handling battle of the bands. Can you Tell me something about that Yeah, so I think it was. It was about six.. Six years. Ago I think it was my fourth year in college, the third or fourth year in College – I don’t remember, but I was actually made to organize an event. Called the Battle of the Bands, You know the logistics, putting it together and Also, the marketing and we were tight at tight with budgets back then right and We wanted to see how we could make do with the resources in the best possible Way – and I remember back then about six years ago, I spent like a hundred or 200 Rupees on on Facebook Ads – and you know I saw some numbers come up, so I think that Was a curious start into digital? For me, That’s really good to know, and I’m glad that you started out that Way, it’s a fun story to tell as well.

You spent a lot of time learning digital Marketing and social media marketing, so can you tell us what? How exactly did you Learn the tools and develop the skills to become a social media, marketer Well, To learn courses, there are multiple courses available online, Free and paid Depending on what you want to go for it depending, if you have a budget or not, I Think going through those courses and actually applying it and working on A portfolio because that makes a big difference.

Fortunately, for me, I reached Out to a couple of friends who were starting out their own businesses and Also people who had taken up to their family businesses So that way for me, I Got a chance to experiment and explore and try out whatever I was Learning on these different, you know these different businesses and that Became my portfolio right, It would be difficult for me to go. Get a client Because I would not have any credibility, but this way you know I was doing as Much as you know, these people got their work done at no cost or probably free It was actually a bigger favor for me to have a portfolio to present to people.

Beyond that, Let me ask you a more basic question: Because a lot of people don’t really know what a portfolio is and how Important it actually is, so if you can tell us what a portfolio is and how Exactly you built your portfolio a little more specifically, if you could Do that for us All right, so a portfolio could be very specific based On which vertical of digital marketing you want to go to because, like I said, Digital marketing is a large, you know it’s a large field, it has its own Verticals within it, You could be a person specializing in Facebook ads in Search engine optimization in affiliate marketing, influencer marketing, You Could also be building websites in general, which is your basic web Development right – and it depends where you want to showcase your, how you want to showcase your portfolio but, more importantly, where a portfolio Stands out is if you are able to showcase how you were able to present or You know showcase a growth of a business.

You associated a partner with from point A to point B during the time you are, you know you helped and worked on it. Right so that gives a better vision or sense of better standard for people. Wanting to understand what a portfolio is supposed to look like, So just to simplify, basically a portfolio, is you know your practice? It’s like a practice pitch. You create a lot Of things based on your experience and then you have it to show for your Clients in the future right Yeah best practice, because also you need to show The right kind of portfolio going forward, For example, if I have a Portfolio, for example, of of ten different kinds of businesses and if two Or three of them could be portfolios of real estate and, if I’m not too keen on Working on the real estate side, although I might have worked on it, it’s not Something I’d necessarily want to show as my portfolio, So I’ve heard that you Went to a lot of friends when you started out to get their portfolio, I mean to build your portfolio, you kind of went to them and asked if you could do Their website is that true Yeah, it worked both ways.

They said: “, hey, you’re, Doing this, your jobless, why don’t you do this?”? I said “, Yeah, great” and also I requested People, if I could try out what I was learning on their Businesses, because I was also certain that it was going to work and also it It didn’t come to all these people at a cost, so they were willing to Experiment also, So it was a win-win situation. Both ways.So portfolio is really really important when you are starting out as a social media marketer.

Yes, it goes. It holds much higher weightage than any certifications you get online. They don’t Matter: Okay, so now you’ve been in the industry for a while. Now can you tell me How long it actually takes for a freelancer to make money out of working As social media marketer as a freelance Well honestly, since I got into Digital marketing, my first three months, I think, was a lot of learning on pure Basics and it and I kept learning I I started taking projects three months.

I Mean three months into the learning phase. So if you ask me, I think I Actually started, you know making my first buck as a freelancer, probably five Months after I began my learning process, It could have begun earlier too, and This is something I would like to share you. I don’t think anyone needs to be in A hurry to earn that quick buck, because the way I look at it there are enough Businesses around us, everybody needs marketing, it’s not a big deal.

If you go Out there and actually get a client, I mean it’s really nice, but you know it’s Not too difficult What actually matters is getting the right kind of client by Showcasing the right kind of work. So if you actually end up working on yourself, Understanding tools and processes better in digital and are able to build your Portfolio well and then go and get a client that that would be a normal flow.

But if you ask me six months, I think it took me six months. I could have done it. Earlier I just chose not to That’s nice, but for people who are looking for something more specific. How much would someone with your experience make in a month just to be just to know how much that would be Sure as a freelancer, you know You can a freelancer can bill a client or a brand at you know: 20,000 Rupees a Month to 50,000 Rupees a month, even a lakh, a Month, so it depends on how much work you can handle if you can Handle two or three clients who are paying you about 40,000 Rupees a month.

Yeah, you can learn about a lakh and 40,000 Rupees a month as a freelancer, but then Again, you know, being a freelancer. Has your pros and cons, I mean you’re, a Single man team, which is going to be difficult because you can’t you know Take days off you’re going to be, you can’t handle the crisis of three Clients at the same time, so it has its pros and cons, but yeah I mean it. Depends on the individual, so anything between like say, even if you charge Three different clients: ten thousand rupees each.

You can start with at least At a thirty thousand rupees a month, So as a freelancer, you can make 30,000 a month. That’s really good! Ok, so now to get into something more Serious Now, once you developed the tools and you developed the skills to be a Social media marketer. How? And where did you find the clients? Because you know They’re not like sitting there waiting for you. How did you find your clients To be honest, with you most of my clients, I found that at a party My First client I found out at the bar quite literally and most of them, but When that that’s quite true right, I think for me personally, personal Connections has worked a lot because if you’ve done work for somebody and you Know, there’s a very and if they’re happy, there’s a very high chance that they Will refer you to their peers in their network because again, if you refer Someone good you know it’s a pat on the back as well right, because a good Referral goes a long way.

Apart from that, I did. I did use different Facebook Groups I mean everyone should be aware that every city town has some localized Facebook group or the other right where people are probably wanting something to Sell wanting a service or wanting help or whatever Every city has it a Bangalore has it Bombay, has it Bangalore, has even more localized groups for every Area like in Indranagar will have their own groups right so tapping into these Groups and not selling your products right, You want to be offering value.

People will post a question or a problem on their group. Go there help them out. Get on a call with them solve that problem. For them you never Know I mean if you manage to build a trust which I think, for me at least, has Been the biggest in a factor, because if you, if you give someone value, they are Able to trust you and they would like to work with you in the long run and then Referrals come So word of mouth is the best way to you know to get across your clients, but to make a start, you have a lot of Facebook groups that you know where People inquire and also there are there are freelance platforms: upwork.

Com Freelancer.Com are platforms, they are very competitive. You need to be, you know, Good at closing your deal to be able to get your projects on on these platforms. Because it’s a bidding, it’s a bidding way. It’s a way. You bid for a particular Project and at the same time, it is how you communicate to them to actually land Your gig, so these things matter on on platforms like this, but why I choose to Prefer, like you know, a Facebook group over and up work personally, and this is What’s worked for me is because, if I, if I establish a connection over a Facebook, Group – I don’t know it’s just that I feel there’s a friendly approach already, if Someone’s on Upwork or on freelancer.

Com, the chances of them There, on that platform for a one-time, gig is very high right On any of the Other blogs, you could look at having associating on a longer period of time. But it’s not entirely true, because you know what if I I recently did a gig on Upwork where the client said: hey, listen, I’m calling you the next time. I’r Launching this, so you know it depends on your rapport with the client Okay, so I guess, like you know, it was very interesting that you said that you Started with you know, socializing with people and that’s how you found your Clients – but I guess now, with the lockdown pandemic social distancing, that would Be impossible, So the best bet would be Facebook groups and freelancing websites & job sites, like you said, so that’s really helpful.

Thank you and The next question I have for you is, you know: a lot of people say that having a Mentor in a certain industry that you’re entering having a mentor is a Great thing, because they’ll help you, because they have experience in that Field, so do you think that having a mentor is you know, is required for Someone who’s starting out. It’s a tricky question. I can speak for myself. I don’t think it’s important to have a mentor.

I don’t think it’s important to Be confined to one person for all your advice and needs. I think it’s important To have an open mind, get your information and resources and You know advice from different people, irrespective of the kind of expertise or Industry they come from because you never know where you can find value and Pickup some information and work on it. Having said that, I do come across you.

Know I mean I’m sure we all do come across times where we, you know, we Glorify a certain personality or a person, and we are enamored by the kind Of work they do, and you know we go crazy about that. Right and it’s normal to feel that way, and I feel that too, at times with Certain people and the point is I’m aware of it, and I also choose not to be Attached to that – and I think that’s important Literally a few days ago, I was Sitting with a eight-year-old, you know helping the eight-year-old on on Something on the computer on a tool and that eight-year-old taught me a tool.

I Was really searching for on the internet for a long time right and specifically For my system requirements and I said wow thank you, you made my life a lot. Easier right, So I think anyone who can give you some kind of direction. Irrespective of who they are where they’re from they are your mentor, but Don’t restrict to one That is the best thing I have heard today. I think that we can learn Anything and everything from the people we meet from the books, we read whatever and everything and that’s really good advice.

So you know the life of a Freelancer is really glorified on social media. You know how they tell you that You know you can sit by the beach and you know you have Your laptop and you can work, and you have couples traveling the world and making Money as freelancers, so I just want to know what is the reality behind this What is your experience been like as a freelancer About working and sipping Margaritas by the beach Did you do that I have, but then you know it’s One day in your life, you’re, probably one day in your year, I mean it’s not every Day I mean you have to work, you have to be realistic.

You have to be practical, Right Yeah, there have been a few days like that and I can count the number of Days or probably 2 or 3 days in the entire yeah, but but no you know Especially the freelancer life is over-glorified on Instagram. It is I mean there are two sides: there are true and false sides to it. You have your freedom, So you can literally do what you want. Yes, but the whole flashy cars and you Know big pools the spontaneous traveling, I think a lot of it isn’t actually what It is, I do know, a couple of people who lead such lives and are very good at it.

But I also do know that a majority of people, you know, don’t actually lead Lives like that, so if you ask me, Instagram is Instagram because it’s Supposed to look good people put out their best pictures, That’s very true, okay, so now that we know what your opinion is on that, can you tell me what a day in the life of a social media marketer is a day in your life A day in My life yeah, I mean it’s, I mean just like every other job has its Own challenges and is probably hectic in its own way for us, it’s a lot of screen.

Time right I mean it’s a lot of phone times, a lot of communication and all of That, especially if you’re working on a brand where things are being launched, Posts need to be live, ads need to be live, there’s a lot of coordination and Communication right, so I begin my day by you know literally going over my tasks. Lists and things I need to be done. Normally, I have a preset set of calls. That I have scheduled for the day, which I have to Take make and that’s normally set over the weekend.

I make sure I set my calls. Ahead but then, during the rest of the time, it’s making sure things are going. All right finances are in check, clients are happy, marketing strategies are in Place coordinating with the team and every day is this probably something new A new problem to solve so there’s no definite way how the day goes. But yeah, that’s in a nutshell: that’s how it is, But you enjoy this life that you’re leading as a social media marketer I do I enjoy.

There is some method in the madness here Nice. So is there any book or you know, Resource you would recommend for someone who’s, starting out as a social media. Marketer, because I myself am very interested in the topic. And if I want to Learn usually I pick up a book or two to read about it. I am better with reading books, so is there any book or resource you would recommend You know for a person Starting out on social media and digital marketing, books are a great point to go.

For if you want to understand something in principle, the only way the only Reason is because I feel oh, and this is what I genuinely feel Digital is so dynamic, and technology updates itself so fast that if someone Has to write something down: publish a book. Go for printing, get it on the Shelves I mean that’s a lot of time. Things are redundant, they Are not updated anymore right, so I think, on the Digital side, I personally read a lot of blogs.

I read at least a minimum of 5 to 10 blogs. Every day – and I have to I read from marketing land from social media today, From social media marketing world from SEM Rush has a couple of nice blogs. Written Neil Patel writes nice stuff. Of course everyone knows These are Some of the blogs, because blogs are written more spontaneously and updated Then and there so as opposed to books Books have that principle defined.

I am But if you want to something that you want something, that’s updated, I guess Podcasts or blogs are more up-to-date. Is there any podcast that you listen to? You know religiously, I’m a person that gets bored too Quickly, I need to consume information too, and keep moving over there’s One there’s business voice is a nice podcast, but of course it’s more the business Side of things There’s an interesting podcast by Sean Ellis.

The person who Wrote who wrote the book Hacking Growth? Oh by the way you asked about the book. You asked for books right, so here’s a book called hacking growth by Sean Ellis Which is which is nice Sean has also also has a podcast, I’m not sure what It’s called, I think we can figure it out and we can put it here by But it’s it’s! It’s it’s! It’s a podcast by Sean Ellis and that’s really. Interesting for those looking at scaling startups understanding how the process The behind the stage and the behind the scenes of scaling and growing these Businesses, so that’s that’s an interesting one.

I I’m not getting the Name but yeah, I’m sure we can plug this. I will find it and I will link it here in the article, so they can go and hear the podcast Okay. So now, looking at the scenario you have had experience in this field, based on your experience and the current Scenario, what advice would you give someone who would like to start out as a Social media marketer Still a great time. There are enough businesses that are out There needing these services so yeah, it’s a great time to be getting into Social media, marketing or digital marketing any of these verticals – I don’t Think the person should look at you know making a quick buck, because there’s no Shortcut to it, Learning the tools, well, understanding them.

Experimenting, you know that that’s that’s a process. Someone needs to look Into a look into, and not look at one of these, how do you become a millionaire Overnight schemes, that’s not you, so you know, keep growing I mean, I don’t think, there’s anyone who’s an expert in this field. The industry is so dynamic, there’s so much to learn so yeah, I’m just you know. Adding this to it, what advice would you give your younger self? So when you Started out, if you know, based on whatever you have learned so far, is there Anything you would go back and tell your younger self, you know advice, you would Give your younger self basically! So it depends.

This question: are you asking me Before I did engineering after I did engineering Coz its two different answers, Say after you did Engineering After I did engineering. So after I did Engineering I applied with the two companies. Actually I applied with the Minimalist from Bombay I applied with Facebook, Singapore, Both of which I I got To quite a decent part of the interview I think, for Facebook it was the top Something thirty or something like that for the Singapore role and I think for Minimalist was the reason why I made my first trip to to Mumbai in the first Place – and we had an – I had an interview, I think, with Chirag of minimalist at that Time, I think my objective was to to find a job if I was going to be associated With companies with good visions – and you know, were here for the long run, Otherwise, I would want to choose a freelance route or an agency route that Was my objective? So if I had to do anything differently, that’s going to be Hard because I don’t think I couldn’t I would do it, I’m happy with the way we Are progressing Of course, my there are more micro level decisions.

I would have made differently. Probably I would not have signed off for signed off on certain clients. I would Not have taken on certain work because a lot of clients can slow you down. You Know and hamper your growth so that way, I think I would have avoided certain Certain clients, So now for those who are listening and reading right now, if you could give a few steps to start out as a social media marketer that would make it easy for them to transition and to get into the industry.

What would Those steps be The first first step is to learn, learn, study some courses, There enough courses, free courses online – you can put yourself through a paid Course or you could do a free course, but but then it depends on you know if you Have the bandwidth to go through a structured course and if it suits Your budget, that’s that’s a route you can take If you and soon after doing This course, or while you’re doing this course, it’s important to at least get Yourself, two clients or two prospects, or you know your uncle’s father’s friends.

Business and work on it experiment on it, so you can learn while you’re. You know, While you’re working on it, because you don’t want to be Experimenting on a person who has just given you a business and paid you and You know goof it up right If you do it well, that’s a different case, but you Know, that’s you would want to not. You would not want to get into that kind of A situation Once you finish your learning process finish your portfolio.

Building process and then decide if you want to get into a job, freelance or Start your own business, Each of them have a beautiful career path and you Know and they’re each nice in their own way. It depends if you want to work with An agency or if you want to work with a brand, if you want to freelance yourself Or if you want to build a team together and offer the same services to other People or if you have a product in mind and if you understand digital marketing, You can always sell that product using these skills right, but then you know it Again, I’m going I’m just going back to the first point of having to learn while There are so many courses paid courses out there, it’s not necessary to actually Buy a paid course there’s enough resources for free and, having said that, I mean I mean, and this is despite saying that, because we have our own course too- And and and we follow a very structured approach of how A person can learn Facebook and Instagram ads effectively and also we Teach them how and where to get clients, and you know about proposals and all of That right, So it depends what you want at the end of the day and how well you Are determined to be learning, and that would that that would be a decent start.

Saying, that your course that you launched recently in that course you’re. Basically sharing All of these things that you learnt over the years and you’re making it easy for The people who want to learn so that they can apply it very easily Yeah completely Because I didn’t know a lot of things, I didn’t work at an agency. I didn’t work. I Didn’t have a freelancer to guide me. I figured it out myself.

I compared Business models with other business models, with brands with with the Marketers, I I learned from a lot of different marketers, because one thing in Digital marketing people need to understand, is it’s okay, Learning a digital learning, digital marketing from a course from an Institute because they are teaching your basics, they’re teaching your Fundamentals, but when you learn from another marketer and I’m not just Putting myself on a pedestal, yeah, I’m just generally giving you my perspective.

If you learn from a marketer, you get a different point of view because It’s it’s at the end of the day, the job is very similar to like say a doctor. Right, If you and I have the same illness and we go to two different doctors – those Two doc doctors are going to have a different approach and give it and start And give us different prescriptions right and it’s the same thing with Marketing as well, you might have your approach and I might have my approach.

And they can be completely different and it’s okay to be completely different. But At the end of the day, you want to be learning from people who have tried. Tested those you know the and have tried, tested methods and learn from them. So Which is why I mean we are putting, in a few case, studies we’re putting in examples we’re telling people what to do, what not to do and also tell them what they can do.

Beyond learning it like how they can find a living for themselves, So whoever is reading right now, if you want to know more about Rachit’s course, we will be linking it below in The description, so you can definitely check it out, So I guess Rachit that would be the end of you know the questions that I have for now. I have too many of Them, but I’m still restricted to that much now. Thank you. So much You’ve been amazing.

The advice you gave is very practical and I know that it’s going to Help people who want to start out so thank you so much for doing this. Thank You for taking the time out and joining us on Alter Answers. Thank you, Disha. I was happy answering all these questions. I wish you guys all the best you guys Are doing some really nice stuff?

How To Get Into Digital Marketing (And Earn A Full-Time Income With It)

Okay, so I’ll be going over. I’ve been doing digital marketing for the last ten years. I run my own business, which makes about seven million dollars a year, and digital marketing is a great place to be the average salaries range from forty to eighty eight thousand dollars per year in digital marketing.

And in this lesson, I’m going to be going over how you can learn the basics, the different ways you can learn the basics I’ll also be going over how to get an advantage in digital marketing I’ll be discussing with you how to get ahead of the curve. What are some four front areas that you can become an expert in and be an especially valuable person or employee and I’ll show you how to start gaining experience and then I’ll go over some pro tips at the end of the article, so that hopefully you’ll be Able to come away with this article with not only an understanding of what digital marketing is, but also how to make money with it so read and learn: hey John crostini and I just love marketing.

Okay, I love marketing and I’ve been doing it for ten years because I find it so fascinating. I you know growing up. I was always a wizard or a sorcerer in the article games I played and I believe marketing is actually the power of magic. It’s the ability to say a few words and effect thousands of people or millions of people all across the globe and going into digital marketing gives you that the ability to do that for a job right.

It’s not even work at that point. For many of you, you’re probably going into digital marketing because you think it’s cool or whatever it is, but what does digital marketing actually mean? Now digital marketing usually refers to a job in a large company that has enough departments that has a big enough marketing department to have separated out digital marketing from other marketing efforts. You know maybe it’s sales support marketing or basically, if, if a company is big enough to have digital marketing positions, it means it’s a pretty big company and usually you’re working for a big corporation and doing alright.

And that’s how I started. I started out in a company of about a hundred people. I was actually a PPC analyst, so I was managing. It sounds kind of weird PP analysts right. No, it’s a PPC analyst, meaning I was a pay-per-click analyst and I was analyzing and doing people’s Google advertising for them. So first to get started in digital marketing. You need to learn the basics all right. So what are the basics so learn the basic knowledge get in groups and learn from courses now.

First off knowledge. Now Google and Facebook have free courses, okay, which explains all of the terminology, all the stuff you need to know, but you could also learn digital marketing. Just by listening to YouTube blogs like this one, every article I do is related to marketing, so you can learn a lot of marketing from people like me and obviously, I’m a business owner making a few million dollars a year.

So I have some experience in this place, but you can also learn from the companies themselves, which one thing to keep in mind is that if you want to be an entrepreneur, I’d say generally speaking, it’s best to learn from entrepreneurs. If you want to be an employee might be, you know it’s just as good to learn from employees, because that’s the position you’re looking to be in and its employees teaching these but they’re not going to teach the real, cutting-edge marketing techniques that allows you to start.

Your own business, so just keep that in mind when going through the Google and Facebook courses. I also suggest groups, okay, so groups, I think, are a great way to learn a lot of people process knowledge in groups. Now there seems to be a tendency. I forget: there’s a study done somewhere, but basically men learn better solo, whereas women learn better in groups. Both men and women need to learn solo and in groups to really get the most knowledge and to really have it sink in the most possible.

That’s why we’ve created a few groups here there are links in the description for you to join our discord community, which is a way you can check. We have a subreddit, which is a forum which allows you to post articles and ask questions and get feedback. We also have a Facebook group where you can post and interact with other members, so I think all of those are great options. I think discord is actually the best community to join.

If you ask my opinion, I even drop into the discord, sometimes as well. Now, courses, I also suggest you go through some online courses. If you’re looking to get into digital marketing, I don’t really suggest school. I don’t really suggest college or Community College. If you’re looking really just to be a hype, late paid employee go, you know, colleges can work out. Fine. The education system is really meant to train people to be employees, so that would be a great place to be.

I obviously you can hear. I advocate people be entrepreneurs and that just affords you more time more freedom, more control, more money, more everything. So, if you’re looking to go the crazy route right, the unsafe route, which I actually believe is the safer route, you know take non college courses. Take courses from people who are all who are very successful online. What I’ve seen about college is that a lot of college professors, you know they’re boring and they’re old and they haven’t done whatever their profession is they’re teaching about in many years and they’re just.

Why would you want to listen to somebody who’s old and boring when you could actually learn from somebody who’s in the cut doing it? I’r making five hundred thousand dollars a month doing my business right now and I take time out of my day to teach people. So you can learn from somebody who’s in the cut in the weeds in the trenches doing lie, and you can take my course, which is the super affiliate system right.

You know, obviously, I’m biased here, but super affiliate system very successful course. Tens of thousands of students have gone through it. A couple number of people have become millionaires from the knowledge they learned and applied in it. So I would suggest you take that and if you want to learn more about it, there’s a free training which explains what the super affiliate system is. The link is in the description now.

Next, I would suggest you get an advantage. Ok, you need an advantage if you’re going into digital marketing, the job market is very hard. The job markets getting smaller as bigger businesses move to more things like the uber model or Amazon flex or postmates sword or really corporations are stratifying. So you it’s more competitive to get there’s fewer jobs, but it’s more competitive to get them and the rest of positions are sort of contract or based which are a little less stable.

So they get an advantage. They give yourself the best advantage possible to get a job is start learning how to do more things. Image and article editing is so important and if you can combine just knowledge of digital marketing with image or article editing, that’s that’s a good place to start. First, off I’d almost call it not an advantage. I think anybody need to get a job. Nowadays, it’s almost necessary to have an advantage, learn image.

Editing. You can learn it for free, learn, article editing, you can learn it for free online. These are great things to do great assets to a company. Most companies have their own separate departments for editing images, editing articles. So if you can come into a company and say I can do both of these, I can do that. I can do digital marketing and I can edit my own ads and images and articles that’ll be huge and that’ll make you a double threat.

I guess to make yourself a triple threat, which is what I believe is the ultimate in marketing. Is you learn website design and once again, you can learn this for free, there’s, no reason you should not learn it spend your time learning these skills. You know I I put out a lot of articles on how to do marketing, but a lot of people don’t even learn the basics. First, I almost consider these basics learn image, editing, learn article editing, learn website design get yourself an advantage.

Won’t go further on that. Just spend the time take a week for each of those to learn it now, if you really want to get ahead of the curve, I’m going to go over three different ways that you can give yourself a monster advantage over any other candidate if you’re looking for A digital marketing job, or just if you’re, looking to do it as an entrepreneur. These are three new emerging areas which will make you just super valuable human being number.

One is marketing automation. Now, a lot of the traffic methods I teach on my blog are using social media such as Facebook, Google, YouTube, LinkedIn, etc to post to put up posts and to get free traffic from those websites. It’s great right, there’s billions of people using Facebook and you can literally just type in a post for free right, you’re, getting free traffic in order to fully utilize those platforms and just make it really efficient.

If you bundle in automation to software programs and other scripts, you can actually get that done way faster. You could message a thousand people, a second with automation, whereas manually you can only message. One person, a second with automation. You could post on 20 different social platforms in a second, whereas, if you were to do that manually, it might take you some time so learning, automation and automation, scripting and stuff like that is very powerful.

Another major advantage you can give yourself is learning paid advertising. Now a lot of companies pay a lot of money for paid advertising and many digital marketing jobs involve doing paid advertising. You can learn a little bit about paid advertising on my blog. You can check out my articles. I think theirs turn 50 dollars into five hundred dollars a day using Google Ads. I have some articles on Facebook advertising beginner to expert in Facebook advertising.

There should be some bubbles around here. My facebook advertising article is pretty long, so you’re going to have to be able to sit down for like 45 minutes to read it, but it goes over everything you need to know about Facebook, advertising you’ll be an expert by the end of that and there are Free courses where you can learn paid advertising as well, but I would suggest if you really want to get an advantage and really, if you want to work for yourself.

If you want to be an entrepreneur, if you want to do paid advertising for a living and you can market other companies products, you can take my course. It’s $ 2,000. It’s a six-week course. It’s intensive there’s a certification, there’s support. There’s coaches, there’s live weekly webinars. There’s a lot of stuff in it and you’re learning from somebody who runs a pretty big business himself and has done this for a living can learn more about that.

There’s a link in the description. That’ll. Take you to a that’ll teach you about the course and what it’s about and what you’ll be learning in there so check that out, link is in the description and, lastly, third major thing to get ahead of the curve is learning data analysis. So you learn data analysis. It just really ties in both data analysis and paid. Advertising are really two sides of the same coin.

If you can do both of these data analysis will make you more effective in paid advertising data analysis will actually just make you more effective in all marketing or just in life. Really so learning data analysis really helps with paid advertising, and I suggest you learn it or at least learn the basics, and I have a article another article on this blog, where you can learn the basics of data analysis.

Now. This next topic is very important because it’s about gaining experience, no matter what you do just being book. Smart is not going to help you out in life. If you read 10 books, let’s say you’re: 13 years old, you read 10 books on how to impress women chances are you’re not going to get out. There start talking to a girl and get a date on the first try: okay, reading books about how to make a woman love.

You is not necessarily going to help you, you know, get your first kiss or what not. How you learn to date is through experience. How you learn to be in a relationship involves a lot of experience. You can’t just read about it, you can read every book on sales and it all goes away when you pick up the phone, so experience is the best teacher of them all. No matter what you do, even if you’re just trying to get a job, I suggest you get experience a couple places you can get experienced Fiverr.

Not only can you get experience doing marketing for businesses, but you can earn five dollars doing so. Actually, sorry, I think Fiverr takes a dollar, so you weren’t four dollars. Okay, it’s like four, so you can earn money and gain experience at the same time, so you’re gaining experience and getting paid another great site to gain experience on if you’re looking to get into digital marketing is up work.

I did a lot of jobs on up work. I call it practice right, although I was getting paid, I was getting paid five hundred dollars a month I was I was making from all my clients on up work. I was making four thousand dollars a month. In addition to my job, I eventually I became the director of marketing at the company I was working for and I was getting paid six thousand dollars a month now an up work.

I got paid an additional four K, four thousand dollars a month because I was working on so many clients accounts. So not only did I earn additional income, but you I was gaining experience. That was the most important thing to me. I didn’t mind if I was working all day. It didn’t matter to me because I wanted to spend more time gaining experience. If you look at things through that lens, it’s going to be very positive for you and, lastly, you can start with local businesses.

Okay, local businesses are in dire need of marketing; they suck it no offense if you’re a local business owner reading this, but they suck in local suck at marketing they’re. Getting there just eaten out by Amazon, Jeff Bezos is just destroying local businesses, he’s just walking down Main Street and just like he’s like just a wizard with like fireballs, just destroying Main Street all hail. Jeff, though I think he’s like one of the smartest guys.

I studied him, I think, he’s fantastic, but a lot of local businesses. You could talk to local business and say: hey I’ll, do your marketing for free and you pay me what you think it’s worth if it’s all evil to you. I think that would be a great pitch and you could say I’ll: do your social media I’ll do whatever help out local businesses they need it and, last but not least, is Network. Okay, I found it’s so important to actually meet and talk with other people in marketing before you get into a job position now, schools won’t teach this.

What schools will teach you if you want to get into marketing, or you know digital marketing or get into a job or get in a new industry or profession? They’ll teach you to submit resumes. That’s just like a horrible idea. That’s like a way not to get hired. Ok talk to current or former employees of a company. If you know you want to get into digital marketing, find companies that have a lot of digital marketers that hire a lot of digital marketers and then look up employees in those companies.

Talk with them. Ask them about how they like it ask them about job security. Ask them about pay: ask them about how the bosses treat them. Ask them a billion question. Ask them about the culture. Ok, remember: you’re, looking for a job here, you’re looking to work for a company or, if you’re not looking to work for a company you’re. Looking to be an entrepreneur, ok talk to other people. Doing that line of work.

You know, ask them, ask us social-media influencer, you know, are you happy? Do you work too much? Do you work too little? How many hours a day do you work? Almost every job requires a lot of work. You know also reach out to the companies themselves. You don’t just need to. You know, submit your resume to companies that are asking for people to submit their resume. You’ll actually have a better chance of finding jobs.

If you talk to come means that don’t have any job listing, I never post a job listing I’ll hire somebody for something. If they contact me point being don’t just rely on other people be self-reliant. Reach out do outreach outreach to employees outreach to companies and also as you’re, going through gaining experience and learning marketing post your case. Studies on social media create a blog creative law.

Talk about what you’re doing it’ll be very powerful if you’re looking to get a job or, if you’re, looking to get clients or, if you’re, just looking to do it for yourself rating that network around you of people who are attracted to the case studies, you’re posting Will help you a lot now back about eight years ago I started posting, or maybe I was nine. I started posting consistently on this one internet marketers forum called stack that money and I would post a diary every day, I’d post what I did in terms of trying to be an affiliate marketer and I would host stats I’d post.

Like you know, I got you know: a thousand people saw my ad, you know: 100 people click 10 people box, you know I’d post, whatever it was usually a zero people bought, and I would post images of my ads I’d post, where I was advertising I’d post. My landing pages I post the offer – I was selling I’d post everything so that people could hopefully give me feedback, and I post a day after day after day after day, and nobody would respond.

Nobody would tell me what I was doing right or wrong, but over time as people saw that I was consistent, I would just Journal every day day in day out hoping that people might start giving me feedback or somebody might be reading how I’m trying things are. My methodology and I people started commenting and giving me feedback on why I wasn’t making any money why I was losing money every day. I think some people, just in that forum it has about 2,000 members.

Some people would just see me and think it’s painful that I had been posting for twenty days without making any money right, they’re just like wow. This kid wants. It he’s hungry, he’s trying, but he sucks and posting case studies. I continued to do that for years and be involved in that forum stacked that money and I actually built up a little bit of a following from stacked that money. And if anybody here is a stack that money member type in the comments below.

If you are a stack that money forum member actually, if you frequent any particular marketing forum, know which forum you are in in the comments below, maybe it’s my forum, jet-set or maybe it’s warrior forum. I don’t know what else there is wicked fire, etc, but just by posting in a forum, just a small group of people, 2,000 people not a big audience but very targeted. I was able to get feedback that allowed me to actually start making money and just really just quit my job at travel.

The world become a millionaire and you know, get married young and have HIDs young or younger than most other people, my age and all sorts of stuff. So networking I think, is really important in creating that audience around you and what’s great about when you’re posting about advertising or marketing that you’re doing or learning is that you’re actually attracting those people around you right now.

Most of the people that you surround yourself with probably a concern with you know: maybe the next Brad Pitt movie or the next x-men show – or you know the next in the newest series on Netflix and that’s great. But slowly. If you start posting about marketing stuff. You’ll start getting those people away from you, which is a good thing. You don’t want consumers around you. You want producers and producers notice, other producers and they’re attracted to that.

So you can start surrounding yourself with the right sort of people and you can start getting help. People will give you their help, but you have to show that you’re hungry you’re taking initiative and that’s your results-based whoo.

Best Tools to Grow an Online Business in 2020

So in this article here today, that’s what I’m going to be sharing with you make sure to hit that thumbs up and all of these tools are really easy to use, because I’m not going to lie.

I’r actually a bit of a technophobe, the first and most under utilized tool. It’s going to be something that you may be like whoa Lauren hold up here. I thought that was just for professionals. They were looking to connect with other professionals or to find jobs and to have people spam me with their jobs. You do know it’s the easiest and a free way to find your dream customers. You can literally type in a job, title or type of person and I’ll pop up.

So just think what is my dream customer do professionally and then you can find them just through searching like this, have conversations with decision makers and three get in front of people who have the income to pay. You y’all over 45 percent of LinkedIn users make more than 75 a grand per year and you don’t even need the paid version for any of that right now. It’s kind of a golden age just like Facebook about ten years ago, so you are able to grow real fast.

So what should you post on there? But I think I’m going to do an entire article on it. But for now make sure that you’re on LinkedIn make sure that you’re posting at least every other day and that you’re connecting with people and that your profile is optimized and so usually dinh and realize that there’s a lot of opportunities there. So yeah. I, like LinkedIn, for building relationships. My company, we call it permission based relationship marketing, but maybe I’ll do a article on that in the future.

So drop a comment: if you want it, I over 10,000 followers on there right now and we’re getting a lot of our clients from LinkedIn. Now, in fact, half of our plans now coming from LinkedIn, whereas before it used to be like 1 % – and I was only a few months ago, so there are some sorts of tools that you can use in order to generate. You lead using LinkedIn and if you want to know what they are just send me, a direct message on LinkedIn saying, lift in leads and then I’ll make sure that I know what that means.

So I can tell you about it sneekly, but you can connect with absolutely anyone and pro tip when you connecting with you, make sure that unknown, like I’m doing right here with these people and offer your services to them in a really non family. My second necessary tool is Google Drive. You would be shocked about how many will don’t know that this is a thing you get to use. Google Docs, which is literally just Microsoft, Word, but it’s so much better here.

Let me show you why. So when you create a new document, it will pretty much just open up and your entire team can be working on it all at once and it automatically updates. So while you’re typing something in someone else can be too so. Google Docs is great, but then there’s also Google sheets, Google, slides and even more so we use Google Forms to our business. So this is the way that you can collect data from clients.

All of these different things that I personally don’t use, but it just keeps everything organized and so simple, so we make slideshows all the time for our clients and then with regards to our sheets. We mainly just use this to keep on track of our clients and various different things that we’re doing, and if you look at this here, this may look really ugly, but these responses are from a Google Form that we had and we set up an integration so That we don’t even have to fill out this spreadsheet, it happens all automatically and it’s just such a nice way for our whole team just to have all of this information all in one.

But even if you just want to use it for personal, it’s great because it means you don’t need to download anything, it all happens and stays in the cloud which means that it doesn’t take up any space. Your computer and Google also has Google Calendar now I’ve taken these three off because there’s a lot of personal stuff there, but these three calendars, my whole team – shares them. So we all get to see when payments are due in on a calendar and it means that we’re organized and on top of things, which means that we’re being productive and not having to go ahead and check everything which allows you maximize your effectiveness and your efficiency.

So how do you know what you’re doing each day you can have your Google Calendar dictate it and you can set it up so that people can meetings with you for that specific thing on this is a big. Take then for a more user friendly project management tool. Monday dot-com is absolutely awesome. It’s super collaborative and everything inside just makes it really simple. So this is the inside of Oz and how we use it, and so there’s various different reporting’s that we do that we can keep track of in order to ensure that we’re both on top of our business and then we also have client trackers for our clients.

Inside of our programs, so I definitely recommend this I’ll leave a link below which gets you a free trial. So you can give it a go and a taster, because it’s something that just allows virtual teams to stay on top of that tasks in a really effective way, and the nice thing is, you can set deadlines, add tick boxes just so that everyone knows where everything Is and you can even have conversations about different things, which then people get notified about? It’s really really cool second to learn I like, for that is acuity, and I actually think I have a lane they’re supposed to be only for my clients to get a free month trial, but I’ll leave it down below, so that you can get it as well, And it’s where people can actually book a time to speak to you and so, if you’re, a coach or consultant or a service provider and you’re, not taking sales schools.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jT8yfF1W2yY

Well, you definitely should be, and people are going to be able to book a pool with you using this. You can also have questions on the cool booking form, which are essentially application question. So when you go on the pool with them, they can have already partially convinced themselves. They already need your help, so this is a whole nother different topic about human psychology and everything. But basically, you see, will calendar and allow people to book kinds of you using acuity scheduling all these every single tool links down below.

So by now you know an awesome platform which is totally free. You know how to dictate your time and how to optimize the people booking cause with you, and you know that you should be doing sales calls, and so next up, I want to talk about. Okay, once you have leads once you have a way for these leads to book time on your calendar, how do you actually get the money in your bank? Well, a little bit.

We use PayPal, PayPal, scoop people’s good, but there’s actually something called transfer wise and I like this cuz. The fees are really really really low so again I’ll leave it down below, but it allows people from all around the world to pay you, and so you need it invoice them out, and so you can just use a website like invoice generator literally, you can go On google and type in generate invoice online and you’ll find invoice generator invoice home all these things you can just use them for free, that’s what I do and it will allow you to actually take payment from people, businesses who are generating under a hundred day by Month, transferwise is a really good option if you’re taking payment over the phone, which I do recommend you off, then you stripe, if you’re under a hundred kpop months.

If you’re over that, send me a DM and I’ll. Tell you about another option: that’s maybe better! For you at that stage, but I’m around a pay per month, transfer wise as well as stripe, are going to be really good option to get the money in the bank. And so now, if you have a, there are a couple of things that you should be using if you’re not doing so ready or if you have plans, okay, so the first is slack slack is awesome, it’s kind of like what’s out for business, it’s a virtual Offense, so you can have different team members come into your slack.

You can also have different clients come into your slack and then you can have blogs and blogs are essentially an office room where people can come in, they can go, but the cool thing is as they come and go they’re able to see all the previous messages That happen before, and so you can send files in there. You can send messages in that. Oh, my gosh, it’s if you have a team and you’re not using it.

You are crazy if you have a lot of individual clients and you’re, not communicating to them on that. Then you’re losing a lot of time, because it’s just such an effective way to communicate, and then it’s definitely another tool for teams. I really really like is loom. So I’ll do it again all of these link down below luminacai, it’s essentially a Chrome extension and you can void your screen record.

The audio show your face if you want to and just do articles, and so it means that when you communicating with plans when you’re communicating with your team you’d have to type things out, you just have absolutely everything in article format, which makes it so much easier To explain, I can’t believe I wasn’t using this up until about three months ago, because I used to have to try and say to a client know this part of the sales school isn’t very good.

Here’s what you need to improve and don’t explain. I was so confusing, whereas now I can have them submit allude to me they speak. I pose what they’re saying I speak with the feedback. I play what they’re saying the PMP or you can have a document and instead of having to go through the document, highlight and then write your comment. You can go through the documents and just say here’s my feedback on this part, the villa and read through it.

Just like you were something that next, but it is so good. It saves you so much time just allows you to communicate less and going back and forth less and then the next thing when it comes to actually training your team, you can record a bunch of balloons, download them and then upload them to a training hub and A training portal, so I like to thank you for that again. I think I have a free trial flat so leave that down below.

This is the same platform that we use to deliver courses to our clients, and so it’s really cool effect, they’re really efficient and will allow you to train your client and train your team in the best way possible. So they’re my favorite tools that I like to use for my business. There are other smaller things that I use, such as Volker sir, with some clients, which is like a what’s up type of thing: I’m not really too much of a fan of it, but the first things that I’ve listed out here hasn’t one I find better ones.

I will be sure to update you and let you know, but right now, they’re my faves first thing doctor where and when it comes to document and everything I drove use. Microsoft, Word everything: Google Drive. I love Google Drive, I let you pay like ten bucks a month and get so much storage. This is immutable and yeah first place to start. If I were, you is just make sure your Google is all optimized and organized then after that, make sure that you are on LinkedIn that you’re posting content from that.

What I would ensure that you’re doing it’s just really making sure that when you’re actually having but close of you you’re sending them your acuity link and then you can keep going to get it and absolutely crush it. I hope this helpful hit not subscribe. Make sure that you turn on the notification Seletar future articles, I’m going to definitely do one on LinkedIn and all the other stuff I mentioned.

I do wan na I’ll, see you in the next article

The BEST low cost MARKETING STRATEGY for Small Business (2020)

Don’t do that. I thought this was a dancing article, so I opened it up, but it says I spend zero time proving myself to anybody. It’s not why you are posting any article of your dancing. Welcome back to the podcast /youtube show the six bigger sign. Hustle muse goddess asks: what are some low budget high return marketing techniques that we can follow? Well funny.

You should ask that, because I talked about one all the time. It’s literally just posting on Instagram. How low-budget is it if you already have a phone and you already have Internet service and it’s literally free, your Instagram account is free. You taking and repurposing photos is free. If you want to take out the little @ symbol out of the repost symbol, then you just pay like a dollar a month.

So that’s one dollar and all you need to do is invest your actual time into finding photos to re post. I do a whole article about how you can build out your Instagram page when you don’t have any original content. What we have done with one of my business with the no label extensions page also is create an inspiration page as a whole cell hair company owner. I cannot rely on any of my clients, posting tagging us as their source, because that would expose their plug and then everyone that they sell to would know to just come to us and get it at half price.

So that’s the last thing that we’re going to do. That’s the last thing. They’re going to do so, knowing that we weren’t going to have that feedback, knowing we weren’t going to have that user-generated content, we decided to make an inspiration page that provides value to stylists value, to models, because we always try and tag the stylist and the model And our audience is growing at like a thousand followers a week.

I think faster than that, because we’re almost a twenty one. Twenty two thousand – and we started this at the start of the year – and this is with very little user-generated content. I’d say less than 5 % of our posts are actually of like photos that we’ve taken ourselves so posting on Instagram. As long as you are consistent as long as you are smart about your posts, then you are going to grow as long as you are using your hashtags and following all of the advice that I always drop, then like search look through my articles on my blog There are so many articles where I talk about Instagram strategies, so we won’t get into all of them, but that is one free way.

Another free way. It’s what we’re doing right here right now. Yes, you guys know. I have upgraded my just down here. You guys know I love me. A glueless wig got to keep that down. Had all the puffs destroyed okay, so, yes, I did upgrade my camera quality, but when I started off recording content like the articles that have some of the highest views on them on my youtube blog were shot on my iPhone on my iPhone.

That’s it! If you want to go ahead and invest in more lights, if you want to go ahead and vest in more lights, I got the ring light up. There got some spots lights, I have so many lights. I have so many microphones, but I’ve been creating content like as my job. I was a jerk broadcast journalist. I worked in the news. I’ve been a content creator for over a decade. This is just kind of what I do, but you don’t need all of this equipment.

I recorded articles on my cell phone to specifically show you that you could do it too, that you don’t need all of this fancy equipment, especially when you’re not just getting started or when you’re just getting started. That, I feel, is an excuse that people make. Oh, I don’t have the right camera or I’m going to wait until I can afford to the lights. Get next to a window go out in the Sun. That is the ultimate light source and start recording on your cell phone show people what you’re working with when it comes to this hair.

This no label extension I have to show up, and I have to show you what I’m working with. Otherwise, you don’t know that you have the opportunity to buy it. That is what you can do. Low budget high return, marketing techniques, pull out your cameras, start recording articles. Let me see muse goddess is selling you of all people should invest in a little weeks here. Let me show you this: I got it on Amazon, I take it with me everywhere.

I know it looks like a fun toy. Ladies this play, but this extends – and you know what fits in it perfectly my cell phone and then guess what there’s a little tripod thing at the bottom – invest $ 20 into this stand. Every time you are practicing, you should be recording yourself. Go live a couple of times a week, make sure that you’re rolling on this doing popular dances to to popular songs and all that stuff.

In your version, your iteration people love reading and consuming tons of content on the same subject when something is going viral, it’s not just about who’s going to tell me about it first, it’s me wanting to see how you are interpreting this information. What are you going to say about this when it comes to you as a choreographer? You should be listening to like the trending things, see what challenges are going around there and show us how you are interpreting that through your artistry, Instagram was literally created for you and then, of course, YouTube is a wonderful visual, medium but Instagram says that’s where the Attention is that in people I’m people and people, I love reading people dance on Instagram.

It brings me joy. I need to get back dancing and so so to see another person doing that it’s you are providing value. You are giving people like me joy, because you’re dancing for us to something popular in trendy and we think and it’s just dope. So I think that is what you should be focused on making sure that you’re putting out constant content showing what you can do and I promise you will see a return on it.

You have no dancing. What is going on here. Don’t do that. I thought this was a dancing article, so I opened it up, but it says I spend zero time proving myself to anybody. It’s not why you are posting a article of your dancing, oh and the focus isn’t going to let it do that. It’s not! I just don’t understand snow dancing on here, girl hashtags go ahead and look up the articles that I’ve done on hashtags daily anytime, you’re dancing.

You should just be recording it. I can’t girl. No, ah, no, that’s it! That’s the end of this Q & A cuz cuz. You don’t even read my other articles. I can tell by your content. I don’t mean to like go in on you, but I’m so hungry. So I really don’t coaching call thank you guys for sitting in on this Q & A session with me, charlo Brea, CEO of new level extensions.

Com/Angela All right onto today’s show What are some online ways to market your business. In the new year, Angela Brown, This is super exciting and I Have with us Ray Malaski from Get Cleaning Clicks, and this is a cleaning company that He started for his wife and then he said, “ Wait a second. I have a knack for the marketing.”, So he did a deep dive into the marketing And he started researching ways that you could get your business to the top of the search.

Engines Then he started looking at different ways: From social media and different ways that you could grow your business and get more Cleaning clicks so he’s back by popular demand. He already did a show for us before it was A rave review and then people are like have him share with us the online ways we can grow. Our business in the new year, Please help me welcome Ray Malaski Ray Malaski. My name is Ray Malaski.

I run a company called Get Cleaning Clicks. Where we specialize in marketing specifically for cleaning businesses and cleaning business Owners and we offer web design social media SEO Google ads all four based around the Cleaning business Angela Brown, One of the reasons I ask you To join us again today, aside from the fact that, back by popular demand, I know that we’re Moving into a new year – and there are lots of cleaning business owners that are starting With a fresh slate – and this is the year they’re going to make a go of it, And so I would like to talk just for a second About any trends that you see any changes what’s happening on the horizon for 2020, because You’ve got a pulse on it.

You do this all day every day and you focus For the cleaning industry, So you’ve got a really good grasp on what We need and what we need to be doing Ray Malaski This year. The huge thing was Google Guarantee or Google Home Services So that’s a whole nother option of paid advertising. It took guys like me out of the equation: Which I’m absolutely okay with? Because this is a great product for cleaning business owners? Who are just getting started? Don’t have the budget to pay? Somebody like me and really Can just dump everything they want into this one source and maximize the potential of That and grow their business with that alone, Angela Brown And tell us a little bit about That What is that Ray Malaski, If you, Google, “ House, cleaning Near me,.

” Or “ House cleaning, your city,.” You’ll, see three boxes at the top of that. Google search and it’ll say “. Google Guarantee.” And it’ll have the client’s reviews on there. From that cleaning business And it’s a program where you sign up for Google They vet you, so they check your insurance. You have to do background checks on the cleaners And then you become kind of their army of cleaners, And you know there could be two cleaning companies In that market There could be 40 cleaning companies in that Market that are all Google guaranteed and it rotates your ads at the very top of Google In these little square boxes with these stars and people click there, They never even go to your website.

It’s all on their own platform. They click there. They decide to reach out To you, they contact you through there and Google only charges you for that phone call. It’s different with Google AdWords, because They charge you for the clicks, Hey, you got this click. It costs you four Bucks, it costs you five bucks, whatever your market is and whatever the keyword is depends. And fluctuates They took all that out of the equation.

You click there. You call them It’s between 19 and $ 21 for that call You’re paying for leads. This is Google’s answer to Home Advisor and Angie’s List and it’s 10 times better than they have ever been for a cleaning business, Angela Brown. So if that’s the new solution, What happens to the Google AdWords Ray Malaski? You have Google Local, then you Have Google Ads right underneath that Still high value still get great results? Still brings in more customers and more ROI for our clients And then below that you have your map pack And then organic So what’s happening is now that Google, Local Came up at the top it pushed AdWords down.

It pushed the map down even further and it Pushed organic down even further, So it’s taking away from that organic traffic! And finding a way to monetize it and make it work for local businesses, which I think This was a great thing for the industry. It’s not something that’s great for me, because You know it’s basically digital marketing without needing a marketing company. Well, one of the things that you just said: Was you will appear in a rotating banner, So I could still do certain things that would Then help my organic search and my Google AdWords, and things like that, so that I can Guarantee that I’m not just number 15 on the rotation list right, Ray Malaski, You can yes, Because those with a lower budget will get Less exposure, obviously – and you could set your budget within there – Let’s say you’re, just starting out brand New business and you’re like okay, I’m going to give this a go.

I’r going to put 300 bucks, as my budget, Google knows compared to the other ones that Put their money in there, Some people are at a thousand some people, Are 1,500, some people are at 2,000 a month, so they know, based on your budget, that your Ad needs to show about this amount of time to maximize that budget. It’s really all about the money in the budget. You set in that campaign how often you show and the level of competition Angela Brown Is there anything that we could Be doing right now that before we jump on that bandwagon and start paying the, I guess Top dollar, so that we can be in the top spot, is there anything that we can be doing that Will help us promote our business moving into 2020? Is it more blogs? Is it more email? Is it less email? Is it more articles? Is there something specific we can do that Can help boost the visibility in our cleaning businesses Ray Malaski To be everywhere, you possibly Can be that your ideal market is at, And where is that I mean it’s all over the place, Some people, it’s the grocery store with flyers.

On the wall and some people, it’s car magnets when you’re driving down the street, The bottom line is, it all depends on your Budget and if you have a lower budget you’re going to have to go with more of those local Kind of efforts Attend the chamber meeting, put the magnets On hang, the flyers work up a couple of recurring customers where you have some kind of revenue and then start spending it on Google, Local Google ads SEO your website.

Facebook, any Other blogs that are out there, Angela Brown, I keep hearing in the online Space consistency: how important is consistency moving through 2020 that you either have the Same ads posted in the same spot, or that you create a blog post every day at a certain Time or every week, at a certain time or whatever, How important is consistency as far as creating A visual in 2020 Ray Malaski Consistency isn’t necessarily How many times you post here or post there, It’s just making sure you are posting there.

You know Instagram, it’s not anything new For the marketing world, but it’s new for small businesses and people are kind of getting Tired of Facebook and all that absorption of over information And Instagram kind of makes that a nice balance. Because it’s image based It kind of takes away that stress of social Media and just make it image based. So at that point we’re talking about branding You’re putting your company out there you’re targeting local customers in your area, So you want to talk geographically about That area 10 best things to do in my city, something That your customer would be interested in Even if you’re not talking about a cleaning.

Service you’re touching them It’s important to make sure that you’re there When they need you Angela Brown, And is that branding that you’re Talking about for Instagram – and I know you also do the Google AdWords and the Facebook Ads and all those kinds of things Is that branding something that you can help. Our listeners with Ray Malaski Yeah, absolutely Here’s the thing. I don’t find that branding Is important until you’re hitting that over 600,000 a year in revenue, Your marketing budget should be seven to eight Percent of gross revenue, If you have that budget, you can pretty much Absorb that all in lead generation, So lead generation being Google Guarantee Google AdWords SEO some people have had some success with Facebook ads That kind of lead generation where you’re Pumping leads into your business.

These people need the service. Now it’s filling your gaps. In your schedule, it’s helping you grow. That kind of thing, Angela Brown So for 2020, then focus more On the lead generation, instead of the branding necessarily Ray Malaski, It all depends on what stage Of what your business is in If you’re under 600,000 – and you have the time Go ahead, post show your business as active on social media, because people want to see That you’re alive, but don’t dedicate a ton of resources to it because there’s other Things that could be more streamlined, take less of your time and still create more revenue.

Now, if you’re at that 600,000 plus a million Plus, absolutely A lot of businesses that I talked to when They are at that point they kind of flatlined They’ve, hit kind of a market saturation where The lead gen has become less effective because they’re so well known, They’ve been out there for so long. It’s not Coming in, like it used to Now, that’s when branding comes important, And now you want to capture that market, that Doesn’t know about you that one that has been using a franchise cleaning service for Five years and now it’s time for you to tell them why you’re better or offer them a better Solution We offer a free strategy session right down.

4 Ways to Measure Social Media ROI

Also this, I think, determination in small Businesses that they’re like “ There is no way to do this.”, So they love to hear about Roi return on investment. You get asked this too right Right. They end up spending so Much of their time on there, they wan na make sure they’re actually getting something back, Which I totally get right. You’re time is super valuable, you’re doing a million other things and then now social media Is added to your plate? How do you justify the time or the money if you outsource it like GoDaddy Social, You wan na justify that time and money and a way to do that is understand.

Are you getting a return on investment And the good news is there’s a lot of ways to See if you are or not, There’s data analytics metrics, but I’m going to break it. Down into four umbrellas of how to measure ROI, starting with number one brand awareness Cool, how do you Measure brand awareness, So brand awareness can be measured in one way that you’re, probably Already thinking at home, your number of followers How many people are following you More people following you on Twitter, seeing your tweets following you on Instagram Seeing your great photos following you on Facebook and Reading those great captions, The more exposure you have and the more followers you have seeing it that’s brand awareness Perfect And does that count likes and comments, and things like that too Totally So likes comments.

Love shares retweets. That’s just going to help You get in front of not only your followers The awareness there, but your friends and their friends, maybe their family members as well, So the awareness just Spreads like wildfire Spreadin’, the love Spreadin’, the love All right, so digging in On the analytics aspect, It’s easy to see the amount of followers you see the amount of Likes and things like that, is there a step further? We can go to really see the nitty gritty Yeah totally.

So that’s a cool thing. If you have business pages set up, they allow you a clear view of what’s working. What’s not working what time of a day a post works? Well, how many people are seeing It et cetera, et cetera, So with Facebook, you Have your “ Insights” tab And, what’s really cool, is it breaks down a ton of information And they even have a little Information button on each one. So if you’re reading a Metric and it’s like “, I’m not even sure what Engagement rate means.

”, (, laughs, ). You know you click on it. It’ll break down what it is Perfect And Instagram too. You have To make sure you create a or turn your account Into a business profile that way, you can see insights and how many people viewed Your page liked it commented what time of the week you Get the most engagement If you’ve turned your Instagram account into a business page. Let us Know in the comments below Just say, “ I’ve turned It into a business page.

”, So that’s with Instagram Twitter there’s the top tweet. So you can see that in your Twitter analytics as well So go in. There see what Your audience likes, in other words your customers and then have that inform Your strategy moving forward, which will also help you be More efficient with your time and give the customer what they want, Give them what they want, Give them what they want: ( laughs, ) All right, moving on Tip number two: where are we at with that? So tip number two: one Of my personal favorites customer satisfaction And you’re, familiar with This inside your business, whether you have a barbershop Or a car dealership, you can see it on the person’s face that they’re satisfied or not.

I can’t make a frowny face: Aw Darn it I was cuing them up. So one way you can do it. Online with social media is well your reviews. Your customers are going to tell you if they had a poor experience. Or a great experience But make sure you’re Reading those reviews Believe it or not, I still Come across businesses that don’t take the time To read their reviews, I’m like “ Wait. This is a great place “ to see if your customers Are satisfied or not.

” Also what they’re saying when They mention you on Facebook, Right, Especially, you have to Respond good or bad. I know most people will just Respond to the good ones and try to just ignore the bad Ones like they don’t exist, Just give them a response. See if you can make it right, apologize to the situation and move on Totally So again pay attention to What your customers are saying, They’re talking to you online And if you wan na even a Deeper dive into that we have another episode of The Journey on social listening so check it out So cool statistic: I read the other day: actually, a quarter of people who have a positive Experience at a business will go and tell 10 people Both online and offline – That’s pretty awesome.

All right. Tell me What’s tip number three Tip number three is actually Gaining new customers, which is your favorite, I know When I say “ You’re Gaining new customers”, you can picture just dollar Bills in your pocket Make it rain, ( laughs ). So how can you do that with all this social Media and online stuff Couple ways: One: your customers are going to Click on your Google listing for their directions.

I know I do that before Every business I go to because I get lost very easily, But if I’m clicking on the directions, I’m coming to your business and I’m coming to spend Money with intent Also calling Calling you That’s another great way to measure that you’re getting a new customer You’ve already learned. That a lot of customers don’t take the time to call So if they’re calling You they mean business, they are serious about Spending money with you, You got yourself a new customer And so because the Google Listing’s really important Yelp and that “ Click to call” you wan na, make sure I’r sure this obvious that everything is up to date, The right phone number, the right address The hours right.

How many times have you gone to a business? That said it was open, you get there and it’s closed And that’s a bummer Just makes me so sad. So sad, And also besides that, if you have a chance to Speak about your business, maybe “ About You” or add Photos do that as well too and make sure that’s up to date, Maybe you’ve remodeled. Since the last time you had your Yelp photos. Updated or your Google Add that in there spice things up Take some photos, Keep it up to date, so When your customer comes in that new customer, you just gained they’re getting an experience.

That they predicted that they expected Right All right, so we’ve reached The end of our journey, We’re on tip number Four, the very last one: What do you got for us Brand loyalty, Another one you’re familiar With the terminology, but what does it look like online? Well, there’s, don’t worry, It’s not tough math, but well, let’s see how It goes for Justin here All right, engagement rate. How do you measure that? Well, it’s pretty easy.

It’s the number of likes You receive on a post divided by the number of followers times. You guessed it 100 And that’s going to equal Your engagement rate ( mumbles ), Oh no! No! It’s not that hard, So write it down, keep it nearby And when you’re posting Check in do the quick, math And then you’ll determine is that engagement rate Where it should be, And what’s also awesome, About brand loyalty is actually 85 % of customers – 85 %.

I know that’s – almost 100, 85 % of customers will actually Engage with your brand if they’re, loyal daily And when I say, engage they’re going to be liking. What you’re posting commenting sharing on a daily basis And that’s huge That constant, like and That constant, following they’re, going to continue to see their stuff and they’re going to continue. To tell their 10 friends and onward and onward and onward All right, so that’s a wrap.

We just covered four ways to measure ROI when it comes to your social media. Make sure you, like this article, subscribe to the blog and ring that bell. If you Wan na see these articles first, This has been The Journey. Thanks for reading

Social Media Planners – eClincher VS Hootsuite

These are two social media platform planners. What is a planner when you start getting bigger in your business, and you have more than one social media platform where you’re posting there are planners out there, where you can actually sit down in one day and plan out all your posts for the month or for The week or, however, you want to do it, each planner comes with different features, so today we’re going to compare each clincher and HootSuite, and I have a bonus for you today, I’m going to give you the name of the app that I use to compare these And you can plug in any social media planner in there and do your own research, because there’s lots of different ones and I’m not going to sit here and tell you, which is the right one for you.

So let’s go ahead and get started. Let’s look at e clincher and HootSuite now, like I said yesterday, I showed you I’m going to give you a quick review of what a planner is. Basically you go in. You make a post, you tell the planner where you want to post it. You pup. You add your own accounts and then you can plan them and I’m just going to show you real quick. How easy it is you can schedule, it comes up, asks you what time and then it posted for you.

So it’s pretty much that simple click. Click! Click you’ve got it. The time that you would have involved would be planning your posts, but you can take one post and post it on to 10 different media platforms, and that’s what’s cool about the planner. If you choose, you can save them in a queue like a an organized folder and you can recycle them. So that’s what’s nice about planners now, let’s go ahead and look at each clincher.

I just went in and this is what you really want to look at. Is what are you getting for your money and they have three different plans: basic premium and agency. You can see right here, the different prices and I just went right to their website. You can go in there yourself and look and get a closer view, but you can see there’s a big difference in the money. The biggest thing you want to look at if you’re new is how many profiles can I plan on and that’s the biggest thing and right here for their basic 10 profiles.

Now, if you’re starting to get bigger, you can do 20 and it says 3 users. Some people will hire virtual assistants to go in and do their posting and planning for them. Other people are running their own agency and therefore they can have unlimited. You brands in there and 40 different profiles, so it can get pretty huge depending on what your needs are pretty much. If you scroll down, everybody gets the same thing.

It starts your bottom plan, pretty much. You lose things like media library, CRM integration and team collaboration, and things like that. A little bit of analytics aren’t available to you. But again, if you’re, not a huge agency or you don’t have that many accounts, I think you could probably survive on the basic account for $ 59 a month. Now, let’s look at HootSuite, I have found what I’ve gone into the different plans.

Most of them do. The same thing, honestly, the difference is you’re going to find is: maybe they don’t post on Instagram, for example, where another one will and that’s really what you want to look at besides the money now here, you can get ten social profiles for only $ 29 a Month so there’s a difference you may go in and find they have a 30 day free trial, as opposed to the 14 days. I highly recommend that you go in check out the free trial so that you can make sure it’s the right platform for you, because again there are so many now.

Let’s look at apples, apples. I found this app and I’m going to put give you the link of it down below. It’s called get app and I can plug in any social media platform that I want and then I can compare them so here we have HootSuite. I’r going to take this one off. I had, I did add sprout social, but I’m going to take it off because so we can see there. You can add up to four at a time so today we’re talking about a clincher and HootSuite and you can visit their website.

It takes you directly there and we’re going to scroll down okay. I went ahead and put a social sprout social back in there and I kind of changed my screen for you here, because I want you to see how you can compare just by adding another social media, planner and and figure out which one is best for you. As you can see the overview they’re pretty much the same in what they offer you can use iPhone.

You can go on the web. Android typical customers are all the same support. The only one that’s different is a clincher does not offer phone support. So if that’s important to you write that down do a list of pros and cons and then you can go in and they have screenshots to show you what they look like. So if that’s important to you, how easy are they to use? How easy are they to navigate? You can go into the different ones and see how easy, now that earlier, I showed you a clincher very, very easy to use all right and now we have pricing, and this is when you want to start looking now.

Hootsuite says they start at $ 19, a month, a clinchers, forty-nine and sprout socials ninety-nine. We were just over there at a clincher and I believe it’s already 59, so these may not be totally accurate. Hootsuite was actually 29, so these are a little bit behind in the pricing. What I like about a clincher is: there is no credit card required when you go in and look at the free trial when you go to HootSuite you’d have to give your credit card a lot of people, don’t like to do that.

So if that’s important to you, you might want to take that off your list. All of them have great ratings and, let’s keep going down and again you can see sprout social is losing some of the features as we go and what’s interesting is they’re the most expensive. So there you have it. I want to show you what I use. It’s a lot cheaper and I highly recommend that you look at it. It’s called post, planner and post planner starts out at $ 3 a month.

Now you only get three social platforms, but if you’re just starting out and you’re just trying to get a feel for it, get the three. Do it start out with that three three social platforms get them going, get yourself in the groove for your planning things and then later go up to the $ 9 a month and you have the social 10 social accounts. I have done a article on post planner and how to navigate it.

I actually did a series of four articles. I will go ahead and post the one where I went in and navigate it um, but this will probably do what you need and it’s only three dollars a month or nine dollars a month. Again it depends on what you need. I hope this was helpful, but I am going to give you that app so that you can go in and start looking at all the different social media platforms, the planners and do some comparison on your own.

It’s a big decision so and it’s it’s something that the reason I say it’s a big decision. You don’t want to spend a lot of time, putting all these posts in there and planning them out and the deciding it’s not the right platform for you, because then you got to turn around and do it all over again. So take the time to research go in try out the tre free trials, maybe only post a few things see how you like them, then, when you decide what you want, go in there big time and get a lot of stuff planned and save yourself some time Thumbs up, if this was helpful and subscribe to my blog, I have a article every single day that will help you with your business, whether it’s affiliate, marketing or just working online, alright, and don’t forget to click those links below that’s to help you out with your Social media planner

Hootsuite Review (Social Media Management Tool)

Now your next question may be what is HootSuite? It’s a social media management system and what that means is you can pre-plan your posts and have them all scheduled out so that they post. So you could take a day and plan out all your posts for Facebook or Instagram or Twitter, whichever platform that you’re using and HootSuite will post them for you each day.

So you don’t have to keep thinking about it. So you kind of like when your own business in line you want to chunk your work. You want to concentrate on one thing at a time: that’s kind of a little bonus tip for you and then once you plan all that posting out, you don’t have to think about it again until the next month, if that makes sense, so let me go over Some of the features – and you can decide if this is right for you now.

Obviously I’ve got a playlist. I would like you to hit that link if you’re, researching and you’re trying to look at different ones. I am building that playlist in my blog. I want to go over various social media platforms so that you management platform so that you can go in and pick the one that’s right for you. Many people use it themselves and sometimes they start a business and managing stuff for other people.

So that’s. What’s really cool about these tools, you can use them for your own business or you can actually create a business. There are so many ways to make money online. It is unbelievable. Nobody out there should be without money. If you have a computer and Wi-Fi because you can make money online in so many ways anyway, let’s stick with HootSuite I’ll, introduce myself. My name is Vanessa du Bellay and my blog is called affiliate marketing mastery.

I want you to take your life back and start your own business and create your own income until you, you know even possibly have a passive income so that you don’t have to be a slave to somebody else. That’s my passion and I would love that for everybody. So that’s why I’m here? Alright, let’s talk about HootSuite these some of the features they do have a free plan, most tools that you see out there will give you an opportunity to test it and check it out, and I think that’s great because gives you the opportunity to check out different Plans it can be time-consuming, but before you start spending money, you want to make sure it’s the right plan for you and I don’t blame you.

I was the same way every every penny that you have. You want to make sure you’re investing in to help grow. Your business and you’re you’re smart about it now HootSuite does have a free version, the free version you can put use to social media profiles. For instance, if you have an Instagram account and you post on Facebook, you can plan out all of your posts for only two different profiles. Okay, then, to get more, you have to start paying money and I’m going to pull that up for you a minute.

But let’s talk about the pro account. A lot of people. Yes, go in check out the free version, but sometimes they’re really limited like if you are only posting on two platforms. They also only let you schedule 30 posts and that’s nice, but you only get to go a month out. If you are a little bit more of a planner and you want to do more, then you might want to pay for the pro version and it’s less than $ 10 a month.

I personally used to start out with all those free accounts, but now I kind of go into that lower one, because I do have more features and it does make your life easier now. What does the pro account do you have? It gives you an unlimited number of social profiles and then you can actually add one team member and has analytic reporting it’ll go in and tell you hey. This is the best time for you to post, or maybe some of these keywords that you’re using are really good, or maybe some of them aren’t.

So it’s giving you some analytics and use some algorithms in there as well. The nice thing the bad thing about the free account as opposed to maybe the pro account or more is you can’t do a lot of advanced scheduling like I said, you’re limited and also you can’t bring in a team member. So why would you want a team member? Well, if your business is building – or maybe you post a lot, you could hire a virtual assistant, or maybe one of your teenage children or a friend or somebody in the family to come in and post for you and the problem with that.

Is they can’t, you can’t add them to your account on the free account or adjust the pro account? So you you have to decide. What do I need from this platform? What do I need with my posting? I would suggest writing all that down before you go out and doing your research. Now you may say you know what I’m just checking them out. I’r going to do the free versions, that’s fine, but definitely if you already know you have a virtual assistant hired and you have them helping you, then you definitely need to look at the account that gives you the option to do that.

Now, let’s go ahead and bring up the pricing on HootSuite, as of today it does change. I have talked about HootSuite before and noticed. Oh my gosh. All the pricing has already changed. They used to give you free, 5 free social profiles and they lowered it down to two. So let’s go ahead and pull that up. I took it today as of today’s date off of their platform. They have what they call a the $ 29 account where you can have 10 social profiles.

Ok and unlimited scheduling, so you might think well. Why would I want unlimited scheduling honestly, if you could schedule out like six months worth of posts and and leave it there? It would be so easy now, you might say. Oh my gosh, that’s a lot well, I know people that will schedule out 2 months worth and then they rotate those same two months worth of posts now think about it. Not every person is going to see every one of your posts on Instagram every single day.

So if you, if you schedule out a rotation of posts of 2 months or 3 months, even if somebody’s reading, you constantly they’re not going to remember what you post at 90 days ago. So that’s what makes it nice for the unlimited scheduling that you can go in and recycle the posts you don’t have to come up with a year’s worth of stuff. So that’s one thing to look for it. For obviously it says everything is included from the free plan which wasn’t a lot, but you do get some metrics and you get to do some ad spending on there as well.

I’r not sitting here and I’m going to promote the hundred and twenty-nine and all that most of my followers are new, and I just want you to see that you can go in for free and check these out. So that’s basically that up if you up it above the pro account, you can pay as much as thirty dollars a month, and I just want you to see the different programs here and if you go down, obviously they get pretty big if you’re looking at starting Your own business – this is something that you would need you could actually post for other people, and I want to point that out because I definitely am an advocate for people making money online and I like to give you different ideas of what you can do.

So if you love to post and you’re good at it, you’re like how can I make money posting? Well, you can you can start your own agency and start posting for other people, and you would use a social media management system to keep track of everything. And here you can have 35 different profiles, five users and up to ten. Alright, let’s go back, and let me just give you a couple features. One of the features I like about HootSuite is I’m very visual and I like how, if I can see all of my different platforms, so here’s a picture here, you can actually pull it all up at once and actually see visually what you’re, what you’re posting? What’s coming up and what it looks like from one platform to the other – and I like that feature because again, I’m a more global visual learner and and I’d like to see everything and not just the parts.

And that actually is a good feature of. If that’s how you are now, what are some of the pros and cons? You do have that multi-column stream, where you can see everything that is a pro. Not every social media management system has that some of them you have to go in and just click buttons, and you can see different. You know only what you’re focusing on and you can’t see what’s happening throughout the whole month.

It does have apps that you can connect to it. So if you’d like to be on your phone, there are apps that you can connect to your pro to your business, to your system and you can even post from your app from phone and not only from your laptop now, some of the cons they do provide. You with one free report a month, so you can go in and see. I was just telling you there are analytics and it’s even on the free account.

You can go in and see what’s the best time for me to post what are some really good keywords that I’ve been using and different things like that? The problem is, if you want another report, let’s say you looked at that one report and then a week later, you’re, like you know what I tweaked my post. I made some changes. I want to see how much better I’m doing with those posts you have to pay 50 dollars for that report.

As of today, as of the day that I posted this, so that’s that’s not really good. If you have a small business because that can get pretty caught, you start costing a lot of money. There are no content grabbing extensions, and so what that means is sometimes there’s some extensions out there. That will help you build your business, make better posts and there aren’t any of those that they allow in HootSuite.

You pretty much are confined to their system because here’s another way. Sometimes, when you post, you will go out and make your own shortened links, and I know on WordPress – and I have a system called pretty links that I’ve added to my WordPress and I make pretty links so on that link. I can name it. My shortened link is a pretty link and I can name it YT YouTube. Let’s say I’m giving a free course – and I can say free course, free email course and when I promote my free email course on YouTube, I use that specific link and pretty links will actually track.

How many people are clicking that link with HootSuite. You have to use their shortener and it’s called Ally, o WL. I think it is here yet o WL y al Li and you have to stay within HootSuite system and you cannot track because it’s in their system. So that’s a negative, but it may not be important to you when you’re new to track, and maybe you just want to play with it in the beginning and see so in a nutshell that was HootSuite.

I’r going to go ahead and compare HootSuite some to some of the other systems that are out there so go to my playlist, go below to my playlist, it’s right below and click that, and you can see some of the other platforms now, like I said, I’m Building that playlist, it’s I’m, always going to be adding to it. So if this is something that you’re seriously doing some research then keep that link handy.

Of course, I offer you I’m going to offer you a free course as well, where you can go in and step-by-step see. How can I build my business go ahead and click that as well, and then I’ve got the link to HootSuite there. It’s not an affiliate link, I’m not an affiliate with HootSuite. I just want to let you know that I’m just trying to give you some information so that you can go out and start comparing the different systems.

So until I see you again, hopefully that was helpful. Give me a thumbs up drop me. A comment. Ask a question: if there’s something else, you want to know again, that was just a review. It was not a tutorial. So if you want more information, you want to see what it looks like hands on just hit. That link to HootSuite and you get your free trial and they’ll have all kinds of training on there. For you,
