Want to know how Two-Brain's conversation marketing funnel works?You're in it.In this episode, Chris Cooper walks you through a four-step process for setting up a killer conversation marketing plan at your gym. Remember: Conversations bridge the gap between advertising and sales. Advertising gets a prospective client's attention, and the sales process secures the money and the membership. But if you focus on the period between attention and sales, you'll earn trust through conversations, and you'll close more sales faster.You can use Coop's strategies to grow your client base but also to keep current members longer because conversations preserve relationships. You can even use it to bring back departed clients: Conversations rekindle relationships.In short, if you want to grow your gym business, start more conversations.LinksBook a CallGym Owners United1:59 - What is conversation marketing?3:01 - Start a conversation and listen6:19 - The invitation7:00 - The sign-up8:29 - Retention and reactivation

We've all seen chatbots on the bottom right. If we engage with them, sometimes they work pretty well and other times…well, not so much. The New York Times recently wrote an article on chatbots where they described trying and failing to find a solution with a chat bot as a “spiral of misery”.But we also know that chatbots can be super effective (just ask WebsiteClosers.com clients). So how can we use chat bots effectively?Joe Bush is the CEO of The Chat Shop, which harnesses the power of conversation and defines the nature of every visitor's online journey.Deal Closers is hosted by Izach Porter and is produced by Earfluence.

In the episode, we chat with Tara Robertson, Demand Generation Manager at Chili Piper, about attribution and how complex it has become. We also discuss how jumping into the new marketing trends and getting over the gated content accessible via email is crucial for companies today. Attribution - and how tracking everything may not be possible (and why that is not necessarily bad). How to qualify leads (and why lead scoring is not always the right way to go). What to do with all of the leads that interact with your product but are not ready to buy. Why does talking to people who do not have high intent make sense for demand generation? Should SDRs be part of the sales of the marketing team? Market saturation and branding vs. building up the funnel? The marketing bubble and why marketers need to go outside the bubble to focus on their product. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/42-agency/message
The quantity of your followers and potential buyers is way less important than the quality of them. That's why it's so important to have conversations, cultivate the people who are paying attention to you, and support them in any way possible. This practice will allow you to make great sales even with small audiences. Today, Jill illustrates this idea with the concept of Conversation Marketing. “If you are a wellness professional of some sort, chances are you have dozens of people that you're connecting with right now that already need help in that realm.” – Jill Coleman Jill is a fitness professional and business coach who effectively made the transition from training clients in person and having no time to build anything else to training clients online and actually being more successful. Today, Jill helps other coaches to do the same.

We get a first impression of someone in under 30 seconds, so what are the implications for your brand through screens, retail stores or press articles? Kevin Lund, author of Conversation Marketing and CEO of T3 Custom goes beyond lame sound bites and lays out specifics. Like a face-to-face encounter, each of your channels is a potential handshake moment, but you're lucky if you get 3 seconds. I ask Kevin to simplify how we can break through with content and what "human" content looks like.

And that's what his book is all about. We discuss how to be relevant and engage customers by speaking human. Competing on price is for suckers. We discuss why being vulnerable makes your brand human and how to meet customers where they are by being authentic and transparent.
