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.

Making Music a Social Experience: SoundCloud’s Thom Cummings at SHARE Beirut [Wamda TV]

How are you I’m great? Thank you. I just came off stage so kind of in a host speech, exhilarating hi awesome. I enjoyed your talk, yeah just to touch up on some of the elements from that talk. Why is sound a different medium than any of the others that we consume? I think it’s it’s an easier medium to create.

You just have one button you can put on in the background. It doesn’t disrupt the scene and you have captured everything that’s going on around you. It’s also easier to consume as well. You can listen to audio whilst you’re doing other things and that’s something that you don’t necessarily have with with a lot of other media and then finally, it’s it’s just an emotionally powerful media type that the connection that you get with sound.

It really touches your your heart and your head in a way that you know other other media doesn’t do a lot of the time. So also what are some of the interesting ways that you’re creating conversations on soundcloud about sound itself yeah. So one of the most interesting things we do is take a sound and turn it into a visual object. We create a wave form of the sound itself and that really allows people to be social and interacted start a conversation around a specific point.

If it’s a lecture, maybe an interesting thing that you learn and you want to start discussing around or maybe it’s a piece of music and you really appreciate the segment there, so people are really creative in the ways that they use that device and it creates, creates A spark of collaboration on our platform – and you see entrepreneurs using this. You know musicians, artists, peoples using this to kind of promote their brand yeah.

I mean most musicians today, our entrepreneurs so having a release tool for them. That’s either free or affordable, depending on how they want to use it. It’s it’s one of the most important things that you can put in your toolkit as a musician or also as a amateur podcaster. We’ve seen a lot of people creating creating news articles and content on soundcloud. That’s a that’s another great emerging way of civilians being able to take to take journalism into their hands and create something outside of the pre-existing system.

Absolutely and finally, also what are some interesting? Apps that people are building on the soundcloud api, have you seen that space grow in the past year? Yeah? Absolutely our api? Is it’s a wonderful place, so you have a huge amount of diversity. Some of my favorite apps would be there’s a fantastic journalism, app for creating and editing content on the move called Hindenburg and a lot of a lot of people in the in the industry using that and using the Soundcloud integration there.

Then it goes from from that scale. We have a lot of them. Major music digital workstations are using soundcloud apples, GarageBand posts to SoundCloud, which is which is fantastic addition for us, and it goes from that all the way down to the very simple beat making apps that you get on on your iPhone or your Android that you can Just create something in 60 seconds and then put it online and it’s it’s fun.

Ok, so we span the spectrum of fun to very kind of serious professional, very cool, and I also just think it’s cool that you’re creating an archive of sound. You know to last so yeah. We look forward to seeing the applications of that yeah. I think we have to start capturing the history now. Otherwise we will be missing out on all of this kind of historic times, thanks so much for chatting with mom go

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.

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

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.

How To Start A Website Business (3 Ways To Make Money)

Hundreds and I’ve been doing this for years and made millions of dollars and I’m going to show you the simple three-step process for starting a website based business. I’r going to be showing you what to do where to do it and how you can make money.

So, let’s get into this and there’s going to be a bonus tip at the end, where I’ll show you how you can make multiple streams of income from your website, so let’s get it hey marketers! So if you were like me, you love the idea of having a website based business for a number of reasons. One it works. While you sleep number two, it doesn’t complain and number three. It can make you money a number of different ways and it’s all automated.

So, let’s get into how to start a website business in this, if you’re not familiar with me, I’ve been running an internet business. I’ve been a full time entrepreneur since 2012 is when I quit my job September 2012 is when I quit my job now. The first step to starting a website based business is, you have to register a domain? Okay, real obvious thing, but you can go to different sites such as GoDaddy top recommended hosting company is down below, but basically you’ll, look up your website domain and you’ll see.

If it’s available most websites retail for about ten dollars, so you usually don’t have to spend more than ten twelve dollars, usually not higher than fifteen dollars to purchase a website now after you purchase website, usually bundled in is you’ll need hosting okay, so you also need, What’s called web hosting? So if you think about it, the website itself is like the real estate. Okay, your domain name, which you will pay generally speaking, fifteen dollars for ten to fifteen dollars.

That’s the real estate, but in order for the real estate to be worth anything, you need to have running water. You need to have electricity, you need to have plumbing. You need to have Wi-Fi if you’re living in the 21st century and that’s what hosting is hosting, is when you’re paying an internet company to actually hold your website for you and load it on other people’s computers every time somebody visits it now.

Technically, if you own a computer and you leave it on 24/7, you could actually host your own website and not have to pay any money. But to do that, I’ve tried it. It’s a real technical challenge and you need to know server-side, scripting and programming and all this sort of stuff databases – and it just doesn’t make sense so unless you’re super advanced you’ll have to buy hosting now hosting generally cost somewhere around 20 dollars a month.

Now, if you sign up with my top recommended hosting company, which there should be a link in the description, then you’ll actually get a free website and you’ll get hosting that costs less than five dollars. So I suggest, if you’d like, to get a website sign up with the website hosting company that I recommend down in the description before you. Do that we’re going to go on what you do next to start a website based business.

Now the second step of starting a website based business is you need to put content on your website now to put content on your website? I have another article where I show you how to set up a website in five minutes, and you can check that article out. It goes over a little more in detail exactly how I show on my computer, how to put content on your website and how to set up your website if you use my top recommended hosting provider, but some good tips on doing content on your website is, generally Speaking people put blog posts on they write words but Matthew, Woodward who’s.

A pretty popular blogger. Talking about how to create website based businesses gives a few different suggestions here. So, first off the difference between good content, bad content is good. Content is in-depth, provide value and we’ll talk about this a little bit later, when we get into my pro tips but offer more value on the subject, then you see other people doing one thing to not do is do not stuff it with keywords, because you heard That putting a ton of keywords in your article or your blog post or your whatever it is, is going to help you out.

Stuffing keywords does not work. Some other things that don’t work is doing a very short article, making it super spammy and full of links and having no multimedia. What I suggest you do is just as Matthew says, use all three content forms, meaning text image and article also keep your art cool, up-to-date if you’re doing in a definitive article, some things such as how to save money or something like that.

You know a very broad article. You can keep it up to date, but, generally speaking, I don’t think you always need to keep your article up to date. If the content doesn’t always change. Okay, keeping your articles or your content up to date really only applies to certain content where it goes out of date. But what is definitely good is referencing other sources, so the more third-parties you kind of reference in your article – you say – oh CNN, said this and NBC said this and Fox News said this Donald Trump said this Bernie Sanders said this: it’s actually good.

It helps your article in terms of ranking. It shows that you did research now. The third step is the most exciting and that’s monetizing content ooh. This is exciting, so the third step is the most exciting and that’s when you monetize content and what’s exciting about monetizing content, is you make money so I’m going to show you two ways that you can make money from your website and I’m also going to show You a third way in a few minutes here when we get to the pro tips, so the first way to monetize is using banner ads.

Now we see a big banner ad right here. This is ad space right. You see this is the New York Times. So this is just a screenshot of their website, but you’ll see right above it is this huge ad for whatever Ericka blacks jet car, whatever. That is now that’s a great way to make money. You can make money by putting ads at the top, and you can see there’s an ad over here is generally ads all over. So this is a great way and the way you do this is with something called Google Adsense it’s free to sign up for, and they will give you directions on how to integrate this into your site.

No matter what type of website you have. Google will be happy to place ads on your site and the way it works with Google is, you will get 60 % and Google will get 40 % of whatever money is earned. So if Google sells $ 10,000 worth of ads on your site, you get 6,000, they get four pretty good business for Google. They make a lot of money. There are other companies that you can work with to monetize your website to put ads on your website.

That’ll pay you better shares, but, generally speaking, Google has four million companies who place ads on their platform, you’re generally going to make a lot more money working with Google than any other provider, because no other provider has as many advertisers as Google. The second way, I recommend you monetize, your website is through, what’s called affiliate marketing. Now, that’s what I do for a living.

I make hundreds of thousands of dollars per month, yeah seriously through affiliate marketing and what affiliate marketing is it’s when you’re advertising somebody else’s company and you just link to it when you just advertise somebody else’s company and whenever they get a customer or a lead or Something they pay you, okay, so what’s great about affiliate marketing is, if you know your audience, and you should, if you’re reading this blog and there’s no reason to not, and if you want to learn a little bit more about affiliate marketing and how it works check Out one of my other articles on affiliate marketing but affiliate marketing.

If you know what products people are already buying cut out the middleman, instead of paying 40 % to Google, you can actually get rid of that and you can keep a hundred percent of the money that you receive from your affiliate marketing. Rather than pay Google costs to connect you with these companies, so you work directly with the company rather than working through an ad network such as Google, and that pays a lot more and almost every single blog and youtuber.

You will see, uses affiliate links if you’ve ever come across a website that recommends an Amazon product. I don’t know my wife, we were having a conversation about affiliate marketing and she says I never click on affiliate links. John III – don’t know it seems, like seems like a scam to me, and I said: okay, can I look at your computer. She said okay, she had like 10 browser tabs open and I look at her computer and I said honey.

What’s this site, it’s called a Lucy’s list com and she said: oh, that’s, uh. I was looking for new diapers for Fiona. I wanted the the current diapers are kind of chafing, her butt and I’m worried they’re, giving her a rash. So I wanted to find eco-friendly diapers that didn’t have chemicals or whatever in them. I said: okay, okay, which one do you like? Oh she says I’m getting this one there. I got that one and I said, and you’ve never clicked on affiliate links.

She said. No. I haven’t that’s an Amazon link. I said exactly it’s an affiliate link going to Amazon. The Lucy’s list is making 5 % of whatever you bought. She said no way so most likely, almost all blogs use affiliate links. Nowadays, it’s just the way to make better money and you can be an affiliate for Amazon, Walmart and eBay and Target all sorts of companies. So affiliate marketing is a great place and then the pro tips I’m going to give you so you’ve got two ways to monetize.

So, to get the most money out of your website business, I really highly recommend doing product reviews pay the more products you feature in your blog or in your website, the better okay, I’m not sponsored by Kido. I love these shakes, I’m on the keto diet. I just lost 15 pounds actually, but I’m not sponsored by them, but if I was a youtuber and if I was going for brand sponsorship deals, I would hang out with this all the time id place products around my set or whatever you want to call it All the time and with reviews review products regularly, you make a lot more money.

Brands will reach out to you even to pay you upfront money to review their products. Companies will send you free products and offer you affiliate or referral deals to review their product. You can get all sorts of opportunities, but the more you make your website centered around products and selling products, the more products you’re going to sell. Okay, that might sound crazy that it might sound stupid.

You know, are simple, but it’s true. I hear this so much. I hear life, coach or marketing gurus talk about, do what you love, do, what you love and you’ll, make a lot of money right and if I did what I loved I’d be naked right now, sitting in my jacuzzi, you know, probably you know smoking something and Then I’ll play some article games later and make love to my wife, okay, but it’s not good. None of that’s going to make me any money.

Okay, so the point is doing what you love that doesn’t necessarily make you money. Selling products does and if I can get an amen in the comments type in our men below, if you know what I’m talking about, you know, I still believe it’s do what you love that still makes money. I think the phrasing has to be off of it, but if you just completely do what you love, I mean I’d be sitting in bed. You know like hanging out, so keep that in mind.

You want to sell products, you want to start a business talk about products. Okay and reviewing products is one of the best surefire ways to make money with a website business full stop. Next, pro tip is youtube okay, so we talked about how you need to have all three multimedia types in your actual website text images article now, preferably the article – would be your own YouTube articles for every post for every product to review for everything you comment on.

For every article you write for every opinion piece you write for every whatever you’re doing have an accompanying article on YouTube. It makes your blog rank better. Your YouTube blog can rank for whatever you’re talking about and third off, you make money from YouTube. So it’s a third source of income. Okay, now YouTube doesn’t make people a lot of money right now: okay, for instance, I’m a youtuber or you know.

I do YouTube a lot. I get about a million views a month I make about $ 20,000 a month from YouTube. For me, that’s not a lot, because my main business makes me about five hundred thousand dollars a month, so really in the scheme of things in the scheme of how much knowledge on time I put into this, I get very little return now. It may sound like a lot to you, but in comparison to what I do, it’s not a lot, but it has monstrous potential monstrous huge potential.

So YouTube may not be a monster income source right now, but starting a YouTube, blog and growing on YouTube is a huge huge thing. You can do right now today, that’ll help pay off years in the future, because YouTube is growing. The future is moving towards article. The third pro tip I’d give you is offer extreme value now. Jeff Bezos has gotten rich because he’s has an extreme customer focus in his company.

The first principle of everything is customer obsession, but be obsessed with the customer, given what they want, and what they’ve done is what they realized very early on. Is customers want lower prices and customers want faster shipping? They just said okay. This is what we found out from lots of customers. This is what they want at first. They thought it was variety and then they thought it was selection, but really it was about low crisis and fashion.

That’s what customers want and he delivered it to them. He has gone to extreme lengths. I don’t know if you’ve readed the documentary, the PBS documentary on Amazon. It’s amazing check it out. It’s absolutely amazing, highly suggest you read the amazon PBS documentary, but what that documentary goes over is he goes to extreme lengths to get lower prices. He created his own factories. He roboticized his factories factory workers in Amazon, don’t walk through aisles.

They actually have robots, bring him things in boxes, so they’ll say take a teddy bear from this tray and put it in this box. Take a toothbrush from this put it in this he’s just completely reinvented American industry to give people lower prices. That is an extreme customer obsession he’s not just negotiating hard with businesses. He is reinventing the warehouse. He is reinventing supply chains, to figure out how to give lower prices and they’re developing insane technology.

They created their own uber called Amazon flex, which is actually something you can work for as a driver to deliver packages faster, they’re, creating delivery drones to give people packages same-day gue reason Main Street America is failing is because you have store owners, we’re resting on their Laurels who sit there and they’re not obsessed with the customer they’re sitting there, hoping people walk in because they put their shop on the Main Street they’re, hoping that they just can sit in the main store.

They can get good spot in the town and they’ll get customers. Jeff Bezos is extremely customer obsessed and just like Jeff Bezos, you can win too. If you create a website – and you are dedicated to offering an extreme amount of value – let’s say you’re going to teach people how to beginners rock climbing how to start rock climbing right, don’t just rehash the same information. Everybody else gives give tutorials give an equipment list.

Give a cheapo equipment list and give a all in equipment list show diagrams of like what the different things are called show terminology. If this sounds like a really long, you know content piece on your website. It probably is it’s probably 2,000 words. Okay, that’s what a good piece of content is: 2,000 words 1,500 to 2,000 words, so give extreme value, give diagrams make images shoot articles go above, and if you go above and beyond, with whatever content you’re creating you can actually do it for a living.

Okay offer value to people Google’s algorithm, picks it up, YouTube’s, algorithm, picks it up and last but not least, is get rid of the work that you don’t like now. I know I just spoke about. Do what you love? I don’t believe in that. I believe, if you do just what you love, you know, obviously I’d be sitting down: replaying baldur’s gate too, but at the same token, don’t do what you hate. Okay, maybe that maybe that’s my new phrase, don’t do what you hate now, if you hate doing image editing if you hate shooting articles, if you hate trying to design your website, if you hate actually going into your blog and just posting things, you can outsource almost Everything you want, if you even hate writing the articles, maybe just like kind of like concept amout and whatever you can outsource.

Almost anything you want on a site called fiverr.Com it’ll write it down here, fiber with two R’s com, and I also put a link down below it: activates an instant discount on Fiverr. So there’s a link in the description. If you just want to go to Fiverr and you get a discount, but Fiverr is a great site to outsource work for $ 5 $ 5. There’s people all over the world that are willing to go into your site and post content for you to do images to write content for you to shoot articles whatever you need they’re willing to do it so go out there and create your website.

Your website based business – I just showed you how to get three sources of income. You can have Google place ads on your site. You can have affiliate links within your content and you can have a youtube article like this embed it in your website in your post, and you could be making money 3 different ways and if you could become obsessed with offering extreme value to people, if you become Obsessed with going above and beyond and creating a better informational experience for folks you’ll end up winning, so I hope you took something away from this thanks for reading and if you enjoy learning about marketing, if marketing excites you, if making money online excites, you then make Sure you subscribe to the blog hit the notification bell, select all notifications, I do questions and answers sometimes but they’re impromptu.

Amazon’s TRILLION Dollar Marketing Strategy (REVEALED)

In particular, I’m going to be talking about their two main slogans: low prices. These aren’t really slogans but they’re they’re, two main promises, low prices and fast shipping.

This has been their core motto from day. One Jeff Bezos has said: customers want lower prices and he realized they want faster shipping and all the company is focused on is purely low prices and fast shipping and they’ve never gone away from that, and one thing you’ll notice is in Amazon’s growth, particularly here in The United States you’ve seen that Amazon has taken their shipping down from days to one day, even same-day shipping on many items, but what’s even more important to understand, is when Amazon says that your product will arrive the next day or the same day is that they Uphold their promises – and they do so spectacularly now, if Amazon had a reputation for promising same-day shipping or next day shipping, but then having that delayed.

You know a couple days: they wouldn’t be a trillion dollar company today and if you remember it’s almost hard in American. Imagine life without Amazon you used to buy products on the internet and you’d have to wait a week or more, maybe even multiple weeks to get a product shipped to your house. It depended on the retailer, all sorts of different types of quality and concerns, but with Amazon they’ve kept it consistent.

They’ve consistently stayed true to their marketing message and they’ve, always under-promise and over-deliver. Sometimes you even get your shipment faster than what they claim so Amazon’s done. A spectacular job of keeping it simple now in order to grow their business in 25 years to a trillion-dollar company. Amazon’s done three things amazingly, and these are three things that you can do in your core business to help yourself grow, whether you are working for yourself or you’re, working a job marketing job at a major company.

First, off they’ve created very simple core benefits: okay, low prices, fast shipping – that’s it they’re, not focused on anything else than these simple core benefits. Another thing, they’ve done amazingly, is their consistency. I’ve been using Amazon for over a decade and over that entire time, they’ve never been late on their shipment. I haven’t ever worried about where something was they’ve been amazingly consistent with their service and their shipments, and the pricing has been cheaper in almost all cases.

I’ve ever looked on Amazon and the third thing is marketing and mission alignment. It’s not just the marketing department that is focused on promoting lower prices and faster shipping. It’s the entire company. It’s the business development team. It’s the technology team, it’s their warehousing. Every part of Amazon’s business is built to give people lower prices. When Amazon was trying to ship things faster, for instance, they realize the only way they could ship things even faster was building their own network of warehouses, and so they did it.

They spent tens and tens of billions of dollars building their own warehouses, and then Amazon realized that sending people walking through long stacks of shelves was a very inefficient way of getting products and getting things in boxes. And in order to move to a system where they could do same-day shipping, they needed to work faster or sorry next day shipping they need to work faster, so they actually innovate.

The whole factory model factory workers don’t actually even walk in Amazon anymore. They get boxes delivered to them, our items delivered to them by one robot and they pull those items off of the one robotic shelf and they place it in a box in the other, robotic shelf, and they do this all day with new, robotic shelves coming in. Every couple seconds there are new, robotic shelves coming in now, if you’ve seen the PBS documentary you’ll, see a number of workers saying that it’s sort of inhumane and the pay isn’t good for the amount of time they work them, but ultimately, Amazon.

Their core mission is lower prices and faster shipping, so they’ve built every step of their business around creating faster shipping and lower prices, and they do not waver from it even in the building of the factories and the automation of their factories. Their development of drone delivery technology, every part of their business is purely built around delivering the customers. These two things now this is a new article format.

For me, if you’ve been following my blog for a while, I haven’t really analyzed big companies marketing, but if this is something you enjoy learning about, and if you wanted me to break down more companies, please make sure you say so below you say you know. If you like this format and what company’s marketing would you like me to break down and analyze from a marketers perspective, be happy to analyze other companies marketing?

7 Brilliant Strategies To Promote Your Blog For Free

These are actually the nitty-gritty stuff that works stuff that you actually got to put your time in it put your effort in it to actually get results. It’s not simply as cut and paste put your link there and all of a sudden people and come back to your website there’s a lot of hard work involved. I remember what successful people do they do things that other people don’t want to do. They do the hard work.

Okay – and I know you’re successful and I know you’re going to do the hard work. So the first thing is sniffily. It is a semi free service. It’s fantastic. I’ve been using it for a while. So let me just write it up over here: hey you guys see that sniffly so go to the website right now, snip link and basically, what you’re going to do. Is this I’m going to do a little trick over here, some tricks to the camera? So first thing you do: is you going to go to snip, lead and you’re going to find out a piece of content that you would like to promote? That is not yours.

I want to repeat that again: you want to find a piece of content that you love. That is not yours, so you can go to Google, for example. Let’s say I’m making a article right now about content promotion. I will go to Google I’ll type in content. Promotion now see the top five blogs to show up. I’r going to pick one blog that I love that I know provides value. I’r going to use that link. So I go to snip Lior you’re, going to go to simply and you’re going to paste this link into a simply box.

So right here going to hold this here. Hopefully, you guys will see an animation should pop up right there, okay, so basically what you’re going to do is instinct you’re going to paste that link. You want to share right there next thing. What you want to do – and this is what’s so amazing about sniffly – is any single time. If someone clicks your sniffly link on a web page they’re going to see a small CTA, a call to action at the corner of your site or the corner of that post.

So if you can see it right over here, you see another image over here. So you’re going to have your link that you want to share then you’re going to write in your call-to-action. Your write in, for example, you know, get your step-by-step guide for content promotion and then, basically, underneath is you want to put the link towards your actual article? So all the steps should be here. Let me flick it like that, so I’ll be a little easier, so the steps can see right over there.

The whole point is sniffly. Is this you want to share other influencers articles using a snippet code when someone clicks that link they’re going to see that article that you’re sharing, but at the corner of either the left hand, side or the right hand, side they’re, also going to see a call To action, maybe an image that you installed or, for example, I put on a box, a box pops up boom, and it says if you like this article, you would also like you know: seven steps to content promotion, seven steps to optimization and conversion nice, big green Button or an orange button and a click and what’s great about sniffly, is you’re doing a couple of things over here.

Eight you’re not just promoting your article you’re, promoting other people’s articles, also putting them on the spotlight and a great way to open up a line of communication and create synergy among other content creators out there. Second of all, you’re, not soft selling over here you’re, not just pushing your content, saying. Oh, you read my stuff or view my stuff is hey guys. I found this useful article that I use before.

I hope you like it. They open it up. I go. Oh thanks Amir and then basically, once they read it, they see a soft sell of yours. If you really enjoyed this article check out this other one over there. So that’s number one simply: okay, guys number two. Let me write this out number two, your tribe and basically, what you can be using over here is a software called buzzsumo. It’s absolute favorite. I love them so much.

Let me begin. I mean just right now: every single business needs to be using buzzsumo calm. I can’t live without this program. I think it’s in my top three software’s that I use right here. So I’m going to be explaining to you how you can be using buzzsumo in a strategy of reaching out to your tribe, so how about similar works is finds. The most popular articles shared on social media, for example, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, all the above.

However, what it also finds out is what other people have shared in the past and that’s really really important. So basically, what I do with bassoon was: let’s talk about this article again we’re promoting this content promotion article by go to bus zoom, oh and I type in content promotion on the screen. So let me put this up again, so you can see so we go to bus sumo and I’m going to write in content, promotion, buzzsumo and pretty much we’re busting was going to go.

It’s going to find out all the top articles that people have shared on buzzsumo, but this is what you want to do. You want to find the top three articles being shared around a net about, for example, content, promotion, there’s a key feature in buzzsumo, where you can click view shares – and this is some real ninja stuff over here. When you click view shares, it shows all the people on Twitter to share this exact same article and what you want to do is you want to find out their email if you can’t get their email find out or just get their Twitter account, but preferably you Want to find out their email there’s many different software’s out there.

For example, one a really good one is rapportive RPP ort ib e calm, it’s a chrome, Gmail plug-in you plug it in and guess the email. If you’re right, it shows you all the social profiles of the individual, so you get that email of all the people. They’ve shared your stuff, and you can outsource this to VA ninety-five percent. My stuff is VA. There’s a lot of SOPs that I share with my other clients that I have so basically, once you find out the list of everybody that shared the same article, what you want to do is now, like, I said, get their email addresses and contact it.

So this is what you want to say: hey Mike, just I’m assuming the guy’s name is Mike hey Mike. My name is Amir, and I just saw you share this last week about seven types of content promotion. Well, I just released his brand new article that expands on that. I thought that your tribe might like it. Would you like me to send you the link have a great day, looking forward to your reply. This is really important over here that I want to talk.

There’s something really important here I want to talk about, I said: would you like me to send a link? Not here is the link. Would you like me to so its permission based marketing you’re, pretty much emailing every single person that shared a similar article as your article and telling them I’ve created this new guide, I’ve expanded on from the old guide, and I thought that your tribe, your audience, might Get some value from this? Would you like me to send you the link permission, permission permission as opposed to here’s.

My article share my stuff. Here’s my article share myself. Nobody wants to share your stuff. Nobody cares about you. You have to be providing value towards people and you have to be always on Oropeza, always asking for permission. So if the person says yes, you send them the article and you thank them, and you want to do this for like 20 30. 40. 50. 60. 70. People, but you got to think about the compound effect.

Imagine now out of 70 people you’re 50 people, your conversion rate is in 5 10 %, and you get like 5 to 10 people, sharing it and out of those 5 to 10 people. Maybe each one has an audience of 10,000 to 100,000. You see the compound effect over here. It’s hard work, but this is the work. This is the necessary work to start promoting your content. So that’s number two using buzzsumo to find other people who have shared similar articles, such as your article finding out their emails and then emailing them and asking their permission.

What they’d like to see your articles? That’s number two. So number three one of my favorites. Okay alert alert, Google Alerts, it is so underutilized. I can’t stress enough how many people don’t use Google Alerts and it’s so easy if you’re not using it use it. I want to teach exactly what ideas. One simple step is many different things you can do with it. However, this is what I like. Okay, so basically, what you want to do is you want to go to Google Alerts, and let me put this up over here in the search port.

You want to type in site two semicolons Cora calm and your keyword, for example, in this article, we’re talking about content promotion. So my keyboard, if my keyword, is content promotion. If you don’t know what Cora is Cora, if it’s probably the biggest but asking questions and getting answers, form online high-level people on their SEO, CEOs venture capitalists of funds, entrepreneurs marketers, you name it like it – has every single expert.

You can possibly think about right there in Cora, asking questions and answering questions, and what you want to do is any single time. Somebody asks a question or answers or questions about your key. Were they looking for in this case content promotion? You want to jump in, and you want to answer that question and leave a small kind of organically want to tie in your article to the answer that you provide to send people back to your site.

This is a real small thing that you can do on the side that you’re not going to see exponential results right away. However, there’s two things: that’s going to happen over here, a even start: building credibility as an expert by answering all these questions and B over time. All these links slowly start increasing traffic back to your site and it’s a whole compound effect. You know, building traffic is an overnight thing.

It happens bit by bit by bit so go to Google Alerts type in sites, and I call it Korra, calm, slack or calm, and then your keywords. So let me put that right here. Bang right, you guys can see that Coolio number, four blog commenting. So that’s number four, this one. There is two different camps. Some people say no. When some people say yes, listen anytime. Anybody tells you any absolutes about saying yes or no they’re wrong.

There’s many different shades of grade in many different colors. There’s many different answers within an answer: the problem, with blog commenting what most people do? Is this don’t just spam? The blog, like, oh hey, I like to think here’s, my article, all cool post, here’s my article. It doesn’t work that way. What you need to do is create a conversation. So, for example, someone has a blog I’ll give you example a here.

The best way to actually tie in your article towards that blog is always asking questions. So basically, if you see it, you know everybody reads blogs every day and there’s comments, sections on 99 % of the blogs out there. What you want to do is like, for example, let’s say you want to leave a blog on my site, like hey, I’m here great article in this section over here you mentioned XYZ. I was wondering about.

Is this applicable to this because over here? So then, that’s where you can tie in your article over here in this article I wrote something similar, but I’m not too sure. If it’s correct, you know if you got a split second, I love your opinion and feedback on this. What just happened over there? A you’re asking questions and open up a line: you’re opening up dialogue, you’re opening up an area of trust, as opposed to like a great article.

Here’s my article asking questions, I would say, is one of the most underutilized methods when it comes to building relationships because the more we know each other, the more trust we have with each other. What’s the same know like and trust exactly so that’s what you want to do. You want to find all the blogs out there that you read. Let’s say your goal is 5 comments a day you want to provide value on that blog comment.

You want to ask questions, and you want to slowly within that question – tie your article back in there number 5 this one. I won’t spend too much time on, because this can become a whole course, as a million articles on this. It’s crazy, but Facebook Ads so set up going into this crazy, convoluted way of doing Facebook ads I’m going to keep it really simple for you, I mean extremely extremely extremely simple.

Instead of focusing on power editor and all these crazy different things, we want to do baby steps and I’ve spent thousands, I want to say, spent I’ve wasted, thousands and thousands of dollars on Facebook ads, because you know what I was trying to a strategy this strategy. I was running around not having a gameplan and jumping too big right away. You know spending hundreds of dollars on ads as opposed to spending $ 1 $ 2 $ 3, so one of the most simplistic ways that you can actually start promoting, your blog is Believe It or Not boosted posts.

Okay, so that’s that small button that you have over there. So let me just pull over here. If you can see that I’ll be like a abusive post over here and within boosted posts, you can actually have edit audience right now and in that edit audience you want to keep it really relevant. So, for example, in this article about content promotion I’ll have all these different targeting. I will target, for example, people who read growth, hackers, calm, inbound, org growth, hacker TV, anybody that reads anything from Moz anybody reads anything from Neil Patel.

Anybody that reads anything from all these different marketers and all these different startups around the world and target them that way, and I will only have it about $ 5 a day you can even start as low as $ 1 a day if you want check out An individual amazing job on Facebook, especially for the $ 1 they campaign, Dennis you, the guy’s phenomenal. Let me put his website right here. Boom check him out, study his stuff.

I highly recommend him. So that’s that when it comes to Facebook Ads, keep it simple and once you start scaling that way and actually start creating campaigns, then I highly recommend that you outsource Facebook Ads because you as an entrepreneur, building your online business trust me, you don’t have the time Nor the patience to be sitting on your computer screen linking all these different metrics and campaigns and headlines and copy and images hire the best and you’ll get the best results.

Okay, number: six moving along weekly round ups. In fact I would say this is six and seven combined because there’s two different methods, using though the same strategy. So let’s say well we’ll talk about weekly round ups, first weekly round ups and this one’s pretty simple. However, there’s a lot of tedious work when it comes to this, but the results are amazing. I can’t ress enough about doing the strategy so pretty much.

This is what you want to do. You want to go to your friendly neighborhood, google and you want to type in your keyword. So in our case, let’s talk about this, so we’ll just put it here, you guys can see that it’d be content marketing. Then, in quotations round up, and sometimes I even like to set content marketing quotations or content marketing quotations round up 2016, so finding the most relevant to this thing and pretty much what you’re doing is you’re.

Looking for Google for people who do round ups, people who say check out these five blog posts about a Content promotion check out these 22 experts that share their tips about content promotion check out these seven amazing people who have successfully marketed their startups. The whole thing that you need to do is you need to reach out to them and pretty much ask for for them to feature you, and it can be this simple hit.

My name is me: I’ve been following your weekly round-up and I really love the value that provide. Last week I found an article naming to round out that really helped me. I use this strategy from it and thank you so much just yesterday, I put together a topic on step-by-step guide for content promotion that teaches people how to do X. Y & Z, I thought that you might like to check it out and possibly include it in your next round.

Up either way, keep up the amazing work long time friend, all the best sincerely Amir, and that’s it a you’re thanking them for all the value to provide you’re telling them that they’re doing an amazing job and a your ask your asking their permission. You know what can you use my article in your weekly roundup? Obviously the conversion rates going to be. You know you can get anywhere from five percent honestly, for this we’ve had a lot of success.

We get anywhere from 20 % to 30 % conversion rates. Just asking people being human go figure, you know, being human actually works as opposed to automating everything. Don’t automate everything create those relationships, create those bonds create that community that you guys can work together. Everybody helps everybody as opposed to competition for this competition, and you can do the exact same thing for the resource guide.

So I mentioned the weekly round. Ups are kind of similar to the resource guide. So, instead of you putting up round up you type in content, promotion, quotation, resource guide and then basically that’s what you do. Okay, so that’s it guys. Those are my seven tips for content promotion. If you found value in this article, I highly appreciate, if you shared like this with your friends and family, also make sure to subscribe to my blog for more weekly marketing mindset and business tips, also, sometimes blockchain stuff till then.

My friends have an amazing day and peace adios

No anything else! Sorry about that interruption! Small business marketing 2020 tip number one.

Everyone talks about you needing to constantly post on social media. If you want to build your business and while that could be helpful, commenting on social media is way more effective. Why? Because when you’re, just posting posting posting you’re, relying on Instagram or whatever platform of your choice, we’re going to focus on Instagram for this conversation. But when you’re posting like that you’re hoping the platform will show your post to only 4 % of your followers.

And maybe your followers are actually interested in your brand, but also – maybe not so, maybe try this instead, instead of hoping your customers come to you, you need to go to them, find the places and pages on the platform that your ideal customer likes to frequent. They might be your competitors pages, they might be what I call social water coolers, where they post news and niche related content, think the shade room, if your ideal customer is a person of color or someone interested in hip-hop and urban culture or think trend mood.

If your ideal customer is into makeup or country music daily for country lovers, definitely made up that last one don’t know anything about country, but if you need help creating your customer, avatar just click the link to this article. This is where I go. Super in-depth on the topic and it’s extremely useful, but you find these pages, you see posts, you think your ideal customer would respond to and you hop in the comment section and respond to those people.

They will click your name to see who’s responding to them, because that typically doesn’t happen and think back anytime. You’ve left a comment on a public forum. If anyone liked your comment or responded, that is a notification that you saw in your Activity Feed and you definitely went to check out who that person was so if people see but you’ve already, given them something of value, whether it’s liking their comment or are responding To their comment thoughtfully and not spammy you’re, actually triggering a psychological need for this person to reciprocate what yup we read a whole lot around these parts, breathe honey books, meanie but sure so next time, you’re logged into your business Instagram account don’t just scroll past or Doubletap interesting content hop in the comments and get social on social media and it’ll pay off in brand awareness, which of course, is the first step in getting your customers through the know, like trust, funnel know, like trust funnel, like that tip, you subscribe yet we’re just Warming up now, just warming up small business marketing 2020 tip number two post, let’s pay more, you got excited, I suppose, less hot.

No, both less pay more sis. Now I actually think this is going to save you money and make you more money, while also saving you time, because you could always make more money, but she can never make more time, except with this tip. Now, I’m kind of going to be contradicting what I’ve taught you in the past. So as you know, every social media marketing guru tells you content, content, content, content content.

You got ta get out there, ain’t just dish out content, just get it out there, and it’s like. I actually decided to take a six months break from social media and I’m going to talk about how that affected. My branded business in one of my next articles, but during this time, is when I discovered this post, less pay more strategy, so, like I just stated, Facebook organic Reach is dead and instagrams organic reach keeps getting throttled.

Why? Because each of these platforms are businesses that want you to spend money to connect with people that might want to give you money. So, instead of trying to beat the algorithm – maybe let’s just approach this – like you – would any other tool necessary for your business’s growth and put a budget behind your post strategy, so lil disclosure – I have probably a dozen social media pages for businesses.

So while I wasn’t posting on my personal account, I did have time to experiment with these accounts and instead of posting, several okay post throughout the day, which can irritate your followers and become spammy real, quick. We move to only posting one or two posts a day and I know you’re thinking, but what about the algorithm? How will anyone ever find my business just put five ten dollars: Facebook ads behind your posts that force it into your followers feeds or even better target? Your ideal customer just check out my results on a single boosted post to see what it can do for you almost 300 likes more than a hundred saves 42 follows all female all around the target age of my ideal customer and all of them interested in my Specific niche: how much did this cost me? Five dollars? 81 cents? Most businesses don’t get that kind of action in a single day with a single post organically, because the platform doesn’t want you to now stash.

So it takes an average of 30 minutes to an hour and a half to formulate an ID post. So if you go from posting six posts a day and spending about four hours, doing it to only spending thirty minutes on a single post in a day, if not worth your five dollars like we got to start thinking smart here, sis. How much is your time worth five dollars? One post thirty minutes or four hours, six posts and free one post is the answer in five dollars.

However much you make as long as it’s more than a dollar and 25 cents an hour, it is worth it to save your time, post, less and pay it even more and yes, there’s a difference between simply boosting a post and getting on a desktop and going To Facebook’s ad platform and getting super targeted and all that stuff, all of these are really effective, but these are the results I got by just doing the most basic boosting of the post, which is super beginner, friendly and a great way to introduce yourself to Facebook.

Ads, that’s my post, less a more strategy that I haven’t heard a single other marketing Pro share. Oh did I already subscribe here you’re going to make me beg you’re going to make me, but how about this? Let’s drop a money, bag, emoji or a dollar sign in the comments section, if you’re getting any value from what I’m sharing, it really helps. My article gets shown to more people that might need to hear what I have to say and growing this blog to 1 million subs is the only New Year’s resolution, the only business goal, the only focus my team has for 2020.

Why representation? How are there dozens, if not hundreds of guys with business blogs on YouTube with half a million a million plus subscribers, and there isn’t a single blog for women and business and money passing level, not a single one? Yes, I’ve said this before and I plan on saying in every article until we hit our goal so right with my sister’s, don’t know about you, but there are a bunch of little girls out there.

I have a goddaughter. I have a bunch of me since I’m one of seven kids, but if they don’t see themselves represented on this platform, how are they going to know that this is a real, tangible possibility? It’s super important on the dollars and cents. It’s on us to show them. What is possible baby it subscribe and let’s get to tip three which helped me launch one of my businesses to over 12 K in the first 12 hours and help me reek in over a quarter of a million dollars in just a few months just last year.

Yes, I can talk about my success here, but I want you to hear from regular everyday people that decided to do this and their business blew up because of it.

In my last article, I discussed how much YouTube paid me for a article that hit 1 million views, and I talked about the fact that I’ve never really. I mean up until now, focused on growing my youtube blog. I’ve only ever used this platform for its long tail marketing opportunities, knowing that when you search for something on Google, because Google owns YouTube and places article results of Bob ranked sites, this is a way for you to beat every last one of your competitors that have Been building up their site SEO for years, so if you were to search how to start a hair extensions business, even though I had only launched my hair extensions business around the start of last year, I beat all of my competitors by showing up, as the first Article in those intent-based search results.

That I’m sure you have to do, but what’s first and foremost, Right and you have to take That first step of really figuring out what you want: You want your business to be Right, You can’t just go. I want to Be a service-based business! Well, what do you want to do If you want it to be something that you’re actually passionate about, because you’re going to Get a lot of the things that you don’t want to do like the admin or just the run-around.

And if it’s not something You’re really passionate about it’s not going to last. I love the passion component To me if you’re doing something that you’re passionate about you’re, going to give it your all your 110 % Right, absolutely You’re going to do the best work Right. It’s your! Why It’s? Why you do what you do Yeah? So what do you need? Where do you start So probably step one just to make sure that you’re productive is to buy a computer If you don’t have one, If you read this on a computer, then just disregard this Move on to step two, but That’s going to be step one.

What about a smartphone, though I feel like I do everything On my smartphone, You can do a lot absolutely, but it’s all about being productive. You can flip to different tabs. Go to different screens. Do a bunch of stuff that You potentially couldn’t do or if you have to go and type everything out on a smartphone. It’s going to take you a lot. Longer than on a computer, It’s good to have both, though That’s a good point.

Okay, so you have a computer got it Then. What’s next, I’m thinking social media, but that’s just’cause. I’r Obsessed with it domain, where do you go from there? So probably the next Step is to figure out what your name is and buy a domain name and get your social media handles. We’ve got a couple of articles. That we talked about really diving into Instagram Twitter and Facebook in the links or descriptions below As soon as you have that Domain then you need a website.

Social media is great, but you can’t always control social media. Do you remember Vine (, laughs, ), Yeah Yeah? It was a super popular platform Right. What happened to Vine Everyone invested all their time and it’s gone So all those followers went with it And with your website, it’s there to help. You generate Leads and you control it and it’s there for as long as you want it, And then you piggyback into social Another thing, I’m so just wrapped up! In the digital world, — Absolutely, But I was at a trade, show recently walking the floor.

Networking and I forgot my business cards And it’s easy to do’cause. I do so much in the digital world Right, But I got by, but I just am curious as a small business owner and the local heroes listening in are business cards still An important thing, Absolutely it’s absolutely relevant. In fact, I got a business card today and it blew my mind. The quality of it Right. Look at that Super cool There’s even a texture with the font It’s something tactile and if you’re on the go, sometimes you may not Remember the domain name or the handle, or things like that, but that business card is just something to really make yourself stand out, Especially if you got a cool one like that.

That’s different It’s a cool one. It helps you out. Did you want it back? I mean I might ( laughter ), We’ll get it later. I didn’t even notice you Put it in your pocket Yeah thanks Some place, you can get business cards. There’s places like Moo.Com, that’s pretty cool, There’s Vista Print They’ve been around forever, We talk about Canva a lot. You can create your own Business card on there They can print it off for you.

What do you use? I use Canva’cause I like to really design every part of it and there’s a couple of templates, but to each their own. Now, when it comes to Getting your actual work done, I imagine you need to have what An office space work space Space in your home, It’s going to vary right. Is that important? It’s somewhat important! It depends on what type Of service you provide, If you don’t ever really Talk to someone face-to-face, you don’t need an office, but if you want to be able To have meetings with people things like that, you don’t have to invest.

In an office space, There are a ton of just co-working spaces popping up all over the country. Some are free, some are Freemiums some are paid, It just depends on what the budget is, but with those co-working spaces. What I love about it is it’s Not only a place to work, but it’s a place to –, Free coffee, There’s, free coffee, too (, laughter, ), There’s coffee and Kick Flips, but it’s a great place to network And you get all these Like-Minded people around you that you can just piggyback ideas off of or find just complimentary businesses That maybe I’m a web designer right And you’re working there and You’re, a graphic designer You start sending me web design leads, I start sending you graphic design leads and your service just builds.

And builds and builds Or work at home Have a little office space. Something that’s just yours, free of distractions. I know I’m like a squirrel. I just get distracted all day, Just I’m working and Then Netflix will pop on and my dog runs by and I get distracted so what I like to do, Is go to a coffee shop and drink coffee, (, laughs, )! I love the working at home, It’s not for everybody, but — Not for everyone.

It is if you like to work in your PJs. That’s how I do my webinars ( laughter, ), Okay! So one more question: for you All right: How do you stay productive doing this? Oh, that’s! Tough! It really depends on the type of service business you provide. There’s not one answer fits all, but I’ll go over. Some of the Things that helps most people First off. You need some Type of productivity suite Most popular out there are Google Suite with all their Google Docs Sheets all that good stuff and then Microsoft Office.

I would almost caution people to have basically get a second number And what I mean by that is not going and getting another phone Right. There’s lots of digital services, where you can basically have Another number on your phone so that way people aren’t Calling you on your mobile line and you’re like is this personal. Is this business And then it gets confusing Separate the two Absolutely and then you Don’t answer like a weirdo like hey, this is Nealey’s Web Design and it’s your mom right.

You want to make it professional, so you have that difference. She’ll be happy to hear That you’re always working and working hard, (, laughs, ), She’s, so proud, (, laughter, ) And just separate your personal Life from your business’cause, otherwise it’s going to Start getting overwhelming, I say the same for social media. If you have a business, go And get a business page, Don’t use your personal page, Yeah Absolutely All right and then let’s Talk about getting paid, You’re a service business right, Oh right, yeah, You want to get paid You’re not doing this — That’s an important part of all this This is not just a hobby, Not just a hobby.

We all got bills, Yeah passion that pays Yes, lots of tools out there If you’re going in person, probably Square or something like that, so you got that little dongle and you can swipe that credit card. Venmo’s, probably my favorite just to read the comments. Personally, that people talk about, but quick and easy way to get paid, otherwise, there’s PayPal and Stripe for your website and things like that Sounds like a lot of options.

We got options All right, that’s a wrap. I want to thank my co-host. Justin for being here, It’s been awesome, You’re the expert, and we learned a lot about how to start your service business.
