How to Put Value in Online Marketing

Getting into Marketing

• Chelsea majored in marketing in college and started working at Brian Tracy right after.
• She had always been interested in marketing and the whole psychology and writing aspect behind it.
• Now, she has transitioned into the analytical side and looking at the bigger picture.

The Biggest Challenges in the World of Direct Response and Online Marketing

• Direct response is taking one action and achieving results. 
• According to Chelsea, attribution has been an ongoing challenge for them.
• Particularly for Brian Tracy, there are a lot of different moving parts, which adds to the level of sophistication on the attribution side.
• Sometimes it’s enough to get close and know that you’re making more than you’re spending, even if it’s not to the exact decimal point.

Key Pillars of Revenue Generation

• Email marketing has always been huge for generating quick revenue. Put out content with value and be consistent with it.
• For Brian Tracy, they utilize and automate evergreen email sequences. They also have affiliate marketing, outside ads, and blog.
• It's the consistency and how long they’ve been running.

Putting Value in Your Products

• Always put your best foot forward.
• Give good content and add value, which allows people to trust you.
• Lead with the best. Capture that lead, and then you can dive in and figure out what else they want.

Advice for Online Marketers Who Struggle in Sales

• If your sales page isn't making any sales, take a look at your offer. Don’t shut everything off at once when you see people aren’t buying.
• Make sure you have the data that can give you some insight into people.
• Go with your warm leads first. If it does well, move outside sources like affiliates and Facebook ads.
• You should never send one email and expect results—you need to follow up on people.
• Do a lot of testing to find the right market and try to figure out what would add value.

The Benefit of Testing

• It allows you to learn about your offer and your customer base.
• When you learn more about your customers, you can tailor your message and marketing towards them more clearly. Then, you're going to have better results.
• Headlines are the simplest thing you can tap and boost on an opt-in page without needing to change your marketing budget.

The Biggest Mistakes in Marketing Promotion

• Starting off mailing directly to the sales page and not capturing the lead first.
• Marketing isn't just a one-off, and you're done. It's a sequence of events.
• On the sales page, the biggest thing to focus on is the opt-in page because that increases everything else through the funnel.

Creating a System of Processes

• Create a system of processes and find the best person to do the repeatable tasks you can offload.
• You need to have human resources for specialist positions.
• Brian Tracy: “Every minute you spend in planning saves 10 minutes in execution, and this gives you a 1,000 percent return on energy.”

What It’s Like Working with Brian Tracy

• Brian Tracy pulls so much wisdom around stories and metaphors he can refer to.
• He does what he does because he loves it. He loves writing books and speaking, and he was born to do it.
• Brian Tracy gives more value in a lot of instances. Curiosity drives people’s passions.

The Wonders of Marketing

• Chelsea loves the number of new opportunities, new tools, and new ways of online marketing. She finds that it's remarketing in itself.
• She also loves creating a system and writing it down before moving on to something else.
• In business, you can't do the same thing forever. You need to evolve with the new technologies that are emerging.

Habits for Online Marketing Success

• One important and significant habit for success is continuous learning. Read continuously, because it will allow you to stay on top of things.
• You can’t allow other people to dictate your time. Stop and think about what’s important.
• If you’re doing all you’re doing is learning without implementing, then that just becomes an excuse not to take action. There has to be a balance.
• There are many avenues where you can learn: there are podcasts, books, and audiobooks, among other resources.

The Agency Model

• Chelsea and her team are partnering with talent.
• It's the same core pillar, strategies, and principles but different content.
• Their ideal clients are people who have a name and their space, someone who can create content and needs a team to manage their day-to-day operations and marketing.

The 6 Laws Of Business Success with Brad Martineau

It’s easy to decide to start a business. But making it stick around is another conversation. A lot of entrepreneurs dive in with rose-coloured glasses and fiery passion. But this is not enough if you want to thrive and survive in your industry. What are the laws and pointers vital to business success?

Brad Martineau shares his journey from getting out of his boring job and into the successful businesses he co-founded. He talks about habits for success and using mistakes as lessons to grow your business. Hit that play button and discover what really makes a business successful.

About Brad

Brad Martineau is the co-founder of PlusThis, a campaign toolkit for marketing automation users, and Sixth Division, a business marketing automation agency. His work helps marketers & entrepreneurs run advanced marketing campaigns and businesses to be more systematic and efficient.

 

Ensuring Your Business Success

Who is Brad Martineau?

• Brad helps businesses be more systematic and efficient to make more profit and achieve goals better.
• His first job was being an online admissions counsellor at the University of Phoenix back in 2002. He described it as the “soul-sucking” job that made him know what good jobs are.
• After two and a half years, he joined his brothers in InfusionSoft and became the company’s one-man support team. In his six-year run, he also took part in implementation and product management.
• He then decided to be a freelance consultant for six months and eventually discovered that working on his own wasn’t for him.
• He started a membership site that gradually fizzled but led him to his current business partner. It was first a recruitment for marketing automation for enterprise companies. Three weeks in, the two started Sixth Division.

A Rough Start

• During the first six months, Brad and his partner weren’t making money for themselves. The early years had a lot of bad decisions, too.
• A lot of people get caught up with making mistakes when starting.
• It’s okay if things don’t go your way. Mistakes will hurt, but you need to keep moving forward.
• Brad and his partner went to Infusion Con with a sponsorship where they would have time to sell their business. At the time, they just signed a three-year lease and Brad has no money in the bank.
• Fortunately, they sold that night and even made seven figures at the end of that month.

Business Success: Making Growth Happen

• Despite getting seven figures, everything was pure hell. Clients were pouring in, and there was so much work to do.
• The work now is so much smoother than before. They didn’t have the well-defined system they have today.
• They sponsored more events to put their company’s name out there.
• The smaller team back then did the work from all departments.

What Happens After

• When planning for 2013, Brad’s team thought the goal is to double because that’s what they’re “supposed to do.” 
• But they realized they should only focus on the team’s satisfaction. So, their major move was to cut their schedule in half. They also wanted to establish an outstanding team.
• That year, Brad and his partner stepped out of doing services work and finally focused on their expertise.

Getting Things Done

• The biggest enemy of accomplishing anything great is the time spent in trying to decide how you’re going to do it.
• Just pick something and go with it. You will eventually discover whether or not you’re doing the right thing.
• Half-assed, poorly implemented, but completed action is better than no action.
• The unfinished or unmade decisions in your mind affect everything you do. 
• Decisions aren’t permanent.
• You need enough information to make a decision.

Building Business Success with Patience

• There are some shortcuts and quick wins, but slow growth will always be your core foundation.
• If you want to build something that will stick around, you should have a core that will grow slowly.
• Neglecting your foundation will only make something that’s temporary.

What Holds You Back

• Fear is one of the biggest things that hold us back.
• People shy away from things they don’t understand. But when you dive into them, they’re straightforward.
• Attack the scariest things, and you’ll make massive progress.

Six Laws of Small Business Success

• Always wear glasses. Be clear on what you’re trying to do in the first place.
• You’re not the plumber. You don’t have to do everything by yourself. Let go of other tasks.
• You’re not a snake. Create a plan and attack things one at a time.
• You cannot implement a strategy. Turn your ideas into an actual plan.
• Don’t start as ninjas. Know what successful people were doing when they were at your level. 
• The map appears when the car is in motion. You’re never going to have enough information to finish anything vital before you start it.

Every Business is Different and the Same

• No matter how unique your niche is, every business will experience the same problems.
• Businesses are similar in their structures and foundations.
• There’s no templated system. Diving into businesses is explicitly done.
• The only true differentiation you have is the experience you create for your prospects and customers.

Diving into Businesses: The Sixth Vision Way

• Identify your small business playbook: marketing, sales, finance, fulfillment, and internal.
• Start with what’s going to have the most significant impact.
• Consider three things: What drives more revenue, which will be more efficient, and what will give you peace of mind.
• What’s usually talked about is creating a vision for your company, identifying your purpose, creating a culture around what you’re building, and how to hire people.
• Know what is the next most important thing and focus there.

Habits for Success

• Rich people spend money to save time. Poor people spend time to save money.
• Stay disciplined to what you’re trying to do. It’s a painful process to figure out.
• Know what you’re trying to accomplish.
• Nothing’s real until it’s on your calendar. You’re not allowed to commit to anything unless you have time on your schedule to do it.
• Do not overcommit. Do one thing and nail it. Finish it. Then, move on to the next one.

P.S.

• Do you already have a successful business, meaning you're up, running, and paying your bills with some profit left over?
• Are you interested in growing your business, automating/streamlining things, and staying one step ahead of your competition?
• Do you want to achieve your goals, get more things done in less time, and double your sales?

Why Mastering ONE Skill is Key to Business Success With Ryan Levesque

It’s easy to get sidetracked with what we’re trying to achieve, especially with all the distractions and “opportunities” around us. We want to try everything, and we start so many projects, but in the end, we end up accomplishing nothing. In the end, we excel at nothing. This is the reason why we should invest and master one skill to offer value and find business success.

In this episode, we’re chatting with Ryan Levesque as he shares what urged his paradigm shift in doing business. He emphasizes the importance of categorizing and why mastery is a skill that leads to success. He also talks about the right way to ask questions to collect customer data effectively. Tune in to the podcast to learn how you can turn doing something until it’s dull into something beautiful!

About Ryan

Ryan Levesque is the CEO of The ASK Method Company, a marketing education company, which ranked #462 on the 2017 Inc. Magazine’s 500 Fastest Growing Companies for 2017. Ryan is the #1 national best-selling author for his book Ask. He is also the co-founder and investor of bucket.io, a leading marketing funnel technology for entrepreneurs. 

Mastering the Key Skill for Business Success

Ryan’s Beginnings

• Ryan studied neuroscience at Brown University and considered becoming a neurologist.
• When his grandparents passed away when he was young, he took a $5,000 inheritance. He eventually grew it into $85,000 before he even went to college.
• He studied Chinese initially because of his interest in the effects of traditional Chinese medicine on the brain.
• Ryan ended up working for AIG Insurance Company in China, where he ran a massive expansion project.
• By the time he was in his mid-20’s when he had achieved everything he wanted, he had experienced a quarter-life crisis.

Paradigm Shift

• He took a trip to Kota Kinabalu in Borneo with his wife to get away and reflect.
• While on their trip, he listened to Timothy Ferriss’ The 4-Hour Workweek, which started his paradigm shift.
• He started buying courses and programs on how to make money online, but it was fruitless.
• He met Dr. Glenn Livingston, who became his most important mentor.
• He used Dr. Glenn’s methodology to launch his first real business. It became the foundation for his survey funnel formula.

The Biggest Challenges

• Their first online business was in the jewelry-making market. They made a series of jewelry-making tutorials inspired by the Scrabble tile jewelry from Etsy. 
• Amid the world financial crisis, AIG filed for bankruptcy and Ryan decided to resign from his work. 
• A month after this, the Scrabble tile craze crashes, and their entire financial system crashes along with it.
• They had nothing when they moved back to the States. His wife got a job so he can do business full-time. 
• That gardening market business succeeded, and they went from nothing to $25,000 a month in 18 months. This business is the start of their multimillion-dollar company.

Nothing Fails Like Success

• Never betray the habits that got you where you are.
• Pick a business icon that you look up to and imagine what they were like when they were in the same situation as you, not what they are now.
• When you choose to splurge during your lean days, your priorities aren’t right.
• If you’re constantly growing your business, the secret is living on last year’s salary.
• The biggest mistake: The temptation of wanting to upgrade everything after a great year in business.

Establishing Your Category

• Establish your category of one. 
• Take inventory of what you do and all your offers and think, what is it that you do better than anybody else?
• It doesn’t have to be the only thing that you do; it just has to be a part of your USP.
• An inch-wide mile deep focus contributes to success.

Mastery as a Skill

• Mastery is a skill that is wildly lost because we always want to do something we haven’t done before.
• Get your reps in. Spend 10,000 hours to become the best in what you do and the skill you chose.
• Communicating effectively using words that resonate with people is the key.
• If you came from an academic background, you’d have to unlearn the stilted academic way of writing. It doesn’t reach people.

Copywriting and Surveys

• Surveys have a negative connotation.
• To get people to take a survey, a lot of persuasion power comes in. 
• How do you appeal to your prospect’s self-discovery? Through everybody’s favourite subject: themselves.
• Frame the questions in a way that appeals to prospects’ self-interest and self-discovery.
• Surveys are for the customers’ benefits. They allow you to learn about customers.

The Biggest Mistakes in Collecting Customer Data

• Asking the wrong questions. You have to ask the right type of questions at the right time to the right people.
• Two types of information to know what people want: (1) what they don’t want and (2) their past behaviours.
• People sometimes make up answers to please survey takers.

The Greatest Success Values

• Integrate the results of those questions in your marketing.
• The secret to going into 19 markets with virtually 100% success: Take all the guesswork out of the process.
• How do you do that? Ask the right questions and have the right answers before you take any action.
• The first half of Ask talks about the story of how the methodology came about. The second half is about the detailed methodology.

Resources

• The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich by Timothy Ferriss
• The Discipline of Market Leaders: Choose Your Customers, Narrow Your Focus, Dominate Your Market by Michael Treacy and Fred Wiersema
• The Jiro Dreams of Sushi Documentary
• Ask by Ryan Levesque

P.S.

• Do you already have a successful business, meaning you're up, running, and paying your bills with some profit left over?
• Are you interested in growing your business, automating/streamlining things, and staying one step ahead of your competition?
• Do you want to achieve your goals, get more things done in less time, and double your sales?

Scale Your Agency By Using Your Social Media Assets Better

Jordan’s Beginnings

• He found a spark in doing business, and it served as his motivation.
• It was a college project that jumpstarted his marketing career.

What It Takes to Dive Into the World of Business

• You will not succeed in business if you do not commit to it full time.

Social Media Marketing Reminders

• Have the discipline to stick to your targets.
• You cannot control everything, but you can monitor what you do.

• Pouring all your attention to that one prospect will kill your business in case of rejection.
• People also tend to give up easily after one method or opportunity does not work for them.
• They don’t realise that if they see things through, any of the methods they tried could have worked successfully.

Habits of Successful Business People

• Successful people, in whatever career, have morning and daily routines. 
• Jordan treats mornings as absolute game-changers.

About Our Guest

Through his perseverance and unwavering determination, he dominated the industry of sales. His experience spans over twenty years of working and closing deals with some of the highest-paid consultants and most influential coaches. 

How to Master the Art of High Ticket Sales

How Does an Entrepreneur Start?

• Kayvon never listened to the status quo because he knows he is not part of it.
• In business, you need to think smarter, act quicker, and think outside the box.
• To start, you have to find your skill and create a business around that skill.
• On earning while doing your thing: be in line, in harmony, and congruent with who you are as a person.

Working on Your Weakness

• You need to double your strength. To do this, you can build a team of people who are strong where you are weak.
• You do not always have to get it right; you just have to get it going.
• The process includes making mistakes and even trusting the wrong people.

Organize, Organize, Organize

• Being an entrepreneur is more than just being someone who answers the phone, makes the sales, mops the floors, and does the bookkeeping. An entrepreneur is someone who organizes.
• Business is bringing a group of people together. Then, you lead, train, and organize them to achieve a common goal
• Marketing is a group of people working on a unified goal, helping another group of people via a product or service.

"Sell" It Before It's "Built"

• You first have to know if there is a market for your product. 
• Before working on it, you need to secure that people are willing to shell out cash for your product or service.
• Gauge the success probability before the product or service launch.
• It is a technique and mechanism used even by successful online platforms such as Amazon to ensure market engagement.

Salespeople Are Performers

• Kayvon sees himself as someone who inspires and motivates others to get from where they are to where they want to be. 
• Selling is the successful transference of energy and connection. 
• Salespeople do all the talking and closers ask the right questions.

Making High Ticket Sales: Where Do Most People Go Wrong?

• They act like a typical salesperson by overselling and justifying their value.
• An average salesperson often shows too many promises, enthusiasm, and excitement.
• They talk about the products and features instead of the service and outcomes.

What Is a True Salesperson?

• Kayvon regards a real salesperson as a doctor: having the authority and asking the right question to diagnose a problem.
• A real salesperson creates boundaries and containers around their relationship with their clients.
• Do not listen only to what the prospects are saying; rather, listen intently to what they are not saying.

Salespeople vs. Closers

• Salespeople do not create safe environments for their prospects, while closers do so to foster better decisions.
• Salespeople make things about themselves. On the other hand, closers make it about their prospects.
• With closers, it’s not about themselves nor the commission, but the mission.

Bridging the Gap to Make High Ticket Sales

• Closing is 80% listening, 20% talking, where talking should be asking the right questions.
• Listening results in understanding the prospect's problem. In turn, the closer must find the bridge for them.
• Do business with the people you like, trust, and with whom you can bridge the gap.

Three Levels of Pain and the Right Questions

• The first level of pain is surface pain. It is where one asks about the nature of the business and what can be changed for it to work.
• The deeper level is financial pain. This level is where the entrepreneur determines how long his business can run before losing its track.
• Personal pain is the deepest level of pain. It is where one asks how drastic it is going to affect the private life of the prospect.

The Methodology for Making High Ticket Sales

• The first thing to remember is to refrain from being a traditional salesperson, skip the chasing. 
• Kayvon has the prospects call him, not the other way around, and this makes him the expert in the relationship.
• The first call should not be about selling. Instead, it should be about asking the prospect where they are at in the business.

Habits of a Good Closer

• Every day, be prospecting. Reach out and connect to people, converse and socialize.
• A good closer connects with his intent every day and knows where he is headed.
• Make it a habit to connect to your best, authentic self.

About Our Guest:

David Medansky is a retired divorce attorney and an international best-selling author of books for successful, healthy weight reduction. Having experienced weight problems before, his two books, Discover Your Thinner Self and If Not Now, When are about his inspirational journey. Through his work, he wishes to help others make a positive change in their lives.

Healthy Weight Reduction and Weight Loss Myths

David’s Weight Loss Journey

• David used to be health-conscious when he was younger. However, due to life problems, his weight started to creep upon him.
• He decided to lose weight but found it hard to maintain it, often reverting to his old habits.
• He finally decided to lose weight the right way after his doctor told him he has a 95% chance of having a heart attack. 
• David then decided to share the things he learned after observing that there’s a lot of misinformation and myths about weight reduction.

Weight Loss Myths

• One of the most famous myths about weight loss is reducing calories and moving more will equate to weight loss. There is a difference between healthy calories and empty calories.
• Depriving yourself of proper nutrition will force your body to go into starvation mode, which fights to keep the weight.  
• Eliminating carbohydrates will result in weight loss is not entirely true. Complex carbohydrates are right for you. 
• Another famous myth is people think if they exercise more, they’ll reduce weight more. People tend to underestimate the calories they consume and overestimate the calories they burn.   
• Orange juice is not all healthy. It is better to squeeze and eat real fruits.
• Not all salads are healthy. The dressings loaded with fats and other toppings turn salads into an unhealthy meal.

The “Bliss Point”

• The “bliss point” is a term coined by Howard Moskowitz, who was hired by the food industry to engineer people’s cravings for food for 30 years.
• Processed foods are alarmingly increasing today.
• Foods in grocery stores contain chemicals to stop spoilage. These may hurt your health when you consume them.
• People will be shocked to know the ingredients of what they are eating if they read the label on the food products. 

Sourcing Your Food 

• Pastured eggs are a better option. These eggs came from hens that forage their food, which makes them more natural than cage- or range-free eggs.
• Chemical fertilizers used in soil nowadays aren’t helping your body. The land is a living, breathing organic thing that you have to seed. The healthier the ground, the more robust the crop you have.    
• Some of the fish that people consume nowadays have so much plastic in their system.

Diet and Exercise 

• Queen’s University conducted a study that says that exercise is a terrible way to lose weight. It’s all diet. 
• However, David emphasizes that exercise improves your brain; therefore, it enhances your thinking and your judgment.
• A healthy person makes healthy decisions. 
• Specifically, for weight reduction, it’s almost entirely diet. 

Living in a Food Desert 

• There’s just a small percentage of people that invest in the prevention of diseases caused by an unhealthy lifestyle.
• He quoted Dr. David L. Katz, who said that the quality of life in years is more important than the years in life. 
• One of the reasons society is having this problem is due to the perversion of health sciences. A lot of them have been bought out by major corporations like Coca-Cola and Pepsi. The studies are compromised.
• A food desert is a place where it’s like a desert. There’s no water, no real food. Just like these days, everywhere you go, there’ll be fast food joints, meals in a box, etc.
• Cardiovascular, respiratory, blood and endocrine disorders are preventable through regular exercise and healthy food.

Habits for a Healthy Lifestyle 

• Reduce and eliminate soda and diet soda. Replace fruit juices with pure drinking water. 
• Green tea, herbal tea, and black coffee are good for you.
• Use MCT oil; it’s from coconut oil. It will help your body quickly burn visceral fat.
• Alongside MCT oil, a quarter teaspoon of ground cinnamon and half a teaspoon of raw honey mixed in a drink is also good.
• The cinnamon acts as a metabolism booster. Raw honey also has health benefits.
• Eat slower and use smaller plates. 
• Have adequate sleep. Drink more water and prepare a healthy meal. 
• Eat more fruits like berries, watermelon, and pomegranate.
• Choosing food that is unhealthy is not all just for convenience; sometimes, people don’t know healthy foods. 
• Don’t overtrain yourself.
• Words are powerful. Always ask yourself, “What can I do to eat healthier?”

On Intermittent Fasting 

• If used properly, it has benefits. If not, it’s detrimental.
• People are doing intermittent fasting while not recognizing it.
• Intermittent fasting is good for body maintenance and health maintenance.
• When reducing weight, however, there are different things you can do to modify your eating behaviours and daily routines. 

Reducing Weight That Lasts 

• Do it gradually so that it will be sustainable. 
• Eat slower and in smaller portions.
• Eat holistic foods, mostly plant-based.
• Little things add up. Small habits always matter.
• Create new patterns that are enjoyable for you so that you don’t feel deprived.
• Make a healthy choice and decide to make simple changes.

About Our Guest: 

Tammie Jones is a marketing strategist who specializes in Pinterest for business owners, entrepreneurs, social media agencies, and content creators. She helps clients plan and implement a strategy for Pinterest to gain brand awareness, find the best leads for email lists, and increase the sales of product owners. 

 

Using Pinterest as a Marketing Platform

 

Tammie’s Beginnings

• She started as a manager at Walmart and was involved in sales and marketing.
• Her degree in Architecture was an upper hand. She was exposed to designing houses and similar projects.
• She quit her job and decided to start her agency. 
• She enrolled in a course teaching how to do Pinterest. Tammie started with cold messaging Etsy shops.

 

Challenges and Solutions in Entry Level Pinterest Marketing 

• The biggest challenge was overcoming the mindset blocks.
• Getting rid of the clients that were not serving her in value

• Focus on valuable clients.
• Read books on cybernetics and other books about achieving success in business.
• Retrain your mindset by taking out negative thoughts.
• Have a solid support system.

 

Pinterest as a Platform

• Pinterest is a search engine.
• Just use good SEO and keywords, and people will find you.
• Make sure that you are using the correct words for searchability.
• You need quality graphics to get a potential customer's attention.

 

Myths and Facts About Pinterest 

• Just like every platform, it continually changes.
• One of the misconceptions is that you need to have strong impressions and a lot of followers so that your website will have traffic.
• The trend in social media, which is having more likes and more interaction, doesn't necessarily translate to Pinterest.

 

The Demographics of Pinterest

• It's not only for certain industries
• However, some specific sectors challenged her because of the marketing efforts that did not translate into sales, such as trucking and men's swimwear and clothing company.
• She had a hard time because there weren't enough men on Pinterest.
• However, you can employ strategies for almost any industry.

 

Core Strategies in Utilizing Pinterest

• Consistency in pinning every single day
• The client's goal should be the basis of your strategy. Begin with the end in mind.

 

Building an Email list vs. Getting Sales 

• Getting Sales: Drive on whatever the products are (e.g., get as many pictures of the product and put out fresh content) 
• Email list: You need to have several leads (e.g., have some freebies related to your target people to have them sign up)

 

Pinterest for Marketing

• Avoid "spamming" Pinterest with all the photos of your products.
• Have 3–5 interval days or even more for putting out your product to the relevant boards.
• Be part of group boards and Tailwind Tribes.
• Aside from spacing your pins, you should also use different images 
• You need to find similar but not competing content to share to give your followers more value.

• Give your audience a lot of things to look at on your page, not just your content.
• Utilize a scheduler in sharing content. Do not schedule for more than three weeks because trends change quickly.
• Keep on top of your analytics.
• Take advantage of viral content.

 

Pinterest and Other Social Media Platforms

• "Do not put all of your eggs in one basket." If one of the platforms shuts down, you will lose your audience.
• Spread out your marketing. If you stay on one platform, you are not going to reach a wider audience.
• Have good leads and build your email list.
• No matter what medium you use, it will take a lot of planning and strategy.

 

Paid Ads in Pinterest

• Pinterest offers to show your content in the search tab and browse section.
• You can also use an email list and target the people who have already parked to purchase. You can also target lookalike audiences.
• Utilize keyword research.
• You can set up through Google Analytics/UTM a code that you can attach to each pin for tracking.

 

Pinterest as a Powerful Search Engine Tool 

• You also do predictive searching like Google.
• It can provide you sets of keywords that are performing well by giving you exactly how many clicks each word is getting and where the keyword showed up.
• Look for keywords every day.
• You need to be at the forefront because customers are everywhere.
