We celebrate International Women's Day with some amazing women. Tech guru Avery Swartz on social media terminology, including #Granfluencer.

Those of us who work in a marketing role or are marketing our own company can debate how this tactic is better than that tactic. Depending on which conference you attend or article you read, you'll get a different opinion. But there are a few elements that a company must have to make all of this possible – their web and social properties. These foundational assets are what everything else sits on top of, and though I may be preaching to the choir here, these basics must be properly managed, or it's all for nought.  My guest, Avery Swartz, has had her own business for 15 years. She's seen nearly every problem that can happen, through her experience as a web consultant. 10 years ago, she established CampTech, a company which holds workshops showing the right way to use marketing and website applications. So she knows whereof she speaks.  Her clear explanations of web technologies earned Avery spots on nationally-airing Canadian TV shows and on the radio. She also writes a tech column in one of Canada's national newspapers that reaches 6 million people a week.  She's here today because in 2020 she authored a book covering the fundamentals of managing these pieces.  Listen as we cover everything from domain registration and maintenance, accessibility, privacy laws, PPC channels like Google Ads, marketing metrics and more.

Becoming an entrepreneur is exciting. Most new entrepreneurs and small business people have big dreams and big ideas. This enthusiasm is important when it comes to having the drive and determination to get things off the ground, but it's also important to keep the fundamentals in mind. Avery Swartz is the author of the best-selling book See You on the Internet: Building Your Small Business with Digital Marketing.   Avery is a digital marketing expert, and her book is all about starting with the fundamentals and using a framework to plan and execute a successful digital marketing strategy for small and large businesses. She's here today to talk about how her proven framework along with iteration can lead to a successful digital marketing plan before and after launching your small business.    The information in Avery's book is especially relevant for small business owners. We work through the steps in her framework beginning with the first thing you need to do before anything else. Then we talk about the individual metric that will help indicate whether your business is moving in the right direction. We talk about when to measure, when to leap, and the importance of learning. We also touch on important digital essentials that sometimes get overlooked.   Avery Swartz is an entrepreneur, writer, and speaker. She is the founder and CEO of Camp Tech, a tech workshop for non-technical people. She's the resident tech expert on CTV Your Morning. She was ranked number 5 on Search Engine Journal's Top 50 Women in Marketing list. She writes about tech topics for Chatelaine, Today's Parent, and The Globe and Mail. She loves tech and small business, and it's great to have her here today.     Highlights -   [02:36] Avery has been so busy that the number one thing that she is excited about is rest. It's an essential part of the creative process that allows her mind to regenerate. [04:21] The information in Avery's book scales for different sized businesses, but it's especially relevant for small business owners and people who try to do almost everything themselves. [06:39] There is often a disconnect between the big picture and granular concepts. This is why Avery created a framework that includes the basics. [07:09] Set your goal. Know what you are working towards before diving in. Your goal can define your strategy and become your North Star.  [11:34] Choose your KPI or key performance indicator. This is a metric that indicates your individual business performance. It will differ depending on what your business is and what your goals are. You choose your KPI depending on where your business is at. [15:40] Pick no more than three KPI indicators that are right for your business and put blinders on and only look at that data. We have way too much data and not enough analysis. [19:33] Measure before. You've established your goal and determined your individual KPI, now take a measurement before you get started. Knowing where you're at when you start allows you to see how far you've come when you succeed.  [21:49] Leap! Jump into the unknown even if you don't have the perfect plan. You can make the most informed decision that you can at the time, but eventually you have to jump in and learn as you go.  [23:05] Measure after. You're allowed to admit you chose the wrong KPI, but you're not allowed to switch it at this point. Are you sure you didn't make a mistake at the leap/execution stage? You may need to go through the entire framework again and tweak certain aspects. [25:46] Look for a signal in the noise or something that gives you a sense that you're onto something before giving up.  [26:36] Often the number one goal of doing something new is to learn.  [28:32] The Self-Employed Business School is launching later this year. This is a result of taking a leap and noticing that there was an indicator of need for this information.   [29:50] The framework is iterative and can be repeated. [31:30] Domains are essential. Things to look at include which extension to use and how many similar domains should be registered. [35:16] Digital hygiene or making safety and security on the Internet a regular practice. A password manager is essential. Have a strong unique password for every log in. Avery recommends LastPass.  [42:33] Having a VPN or virtual private network is a great way to protect yourself when logging into networks. It's an extra layer of protection.  [44:17] Choosing a CRM or customer relationship management software can be difficult. Be realistic about where your business is and where you would like it to go. Think about the functionality and integrations that you'll need.  [47:29] Big CRMs like Hubspot and Salesforce can sometimes be overkill. Avery recommends checking out trying something smaller like Insightly or Nimble.  [52:30] Learn a little bit about what drives Avery's success in the Rapid Round.   Guest Contact  -   Avery Swartz Camp Tech Avery Swartz LinkedIn Avery Swartz Instagram Avery Swartz Twitter Avery Swartz Facebook See You On The Internet   Links Mentioned -    The Lean Startup How I Built This with Guy Raz LastPass Tunnel Bear Wirecutter Hubspot Salesforce Insightly Nimble Mailchimp   Join 17,000 other subscribers who want to do business with a soul and receive my Self-Employed Life Nutshell Newsletter by going to nutshellnewsletter.com   And be sure to subscribe to The Self-Employed Life in Apple podcasts or follow us on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts so you don't miss an episode.   Everything you need can all be found at jeffreyshaw.com    Avery Swartz thank you so much for being here!   Remember, you might be in business FOR yourself but you are not in business BY yourself.  Be your best self.

Will AI help or hinder the shift to a more equitable society?

The very first season of The Small Nonprofit is coming to a close and we’ve rounded up all of our guests for a very special episode! There is a huge emphasis on growth for all nonprofits, but especially small ones. It’s almost an obsession. How do we grow more? How do we raise more money? What happens if we don’t grow this year? All this got us thinking - is it grow or bust? What happens when a small nonprofit doesn’t grow? Is there a shelf-life for small organizations? We decided to get some of our guests to weigh in on this topic, including Paul Nazareth, Heather Nelson, Matt Fullbrook, Adil Dhalla, Vanessa Chase Lockshin, and Avery Swartz.

Avery Swartz is the founder & CEO of Camp Tech, a workshop company for non-technical people. With a background in theater, Avery was drawn to both graphic design and the freelancing lifestyle, and decided to made a change. She launched her own design firm to enable her to follow this passion while still being able to contribute to innovative projects like the Art Canada Institute. Through freelancing, Avery saw a need for in-person workshops on a variety of subjects. Shortly after, Camp Tech was born. Since launching in 2012, it has grown to more than 250 workshops across several major Canadian cities. Avery also shares her experience by teaching the business of interactive design and how to work with clients at Humber College in Toronto and is also the co-host of a new conference called Gather North - which is a retreat for women who make the web.
