Neil dives into the essential role of marketing for anyone looking to start or grow their tutoring, teaching, or coaching business. Drawing from a recent conversation with a friend contemplating entrepreneurship as an electrician, Neil emphasises that operations can only begin once you have customers, making marketing the crucial first step. He addresses the common discomfort many feel about self-promotion, encouraging listeners to overcome their fears and recognise that marketing is not a dirty word, but rather a vital means of connecting with those who need their unique skills and insights. With a blend of personal anecdotes and practical advice, Neil inspires his audience to step out of their comfort zones, share their expertise, and ultimately serve their communities better. KEY TAKEAWAYS Marketing is Essential: Before any operations can take place in a business, marketing must happen first. It's crucial to let potential customers know you exist, as without awareness, your skills and services cannot be utilised. Overcoming Discomfort: Many people feel uncomfortable promoting themselves due to fears of being perceived as arrogant. However, embracing this discomfort is necessary to connect with those who need your help and to avoid remaining invisible in your field. Understanding Your Tribe: Identify and engage with your "tribe"—the people who need your unique skills and insights. By showing up for them and sharing your expertise, you can make a significant impact on their lives. The Value of Your Work: Recognise that the money you earn is a reward for the value you provide. If you enjoy your work and help others, it's not only acceptable but essential to market yourself and your services. Consistency is Key: Regularly communicate what you do and how you can help others. Make it a habit to promote your services daily, whether through social media, ads, or personal outreach, to ensure that those who need your help can find you. BEST MOMENTS "Marketing is what happens first. Always. There's no point in being a reliable and excellent electrician if nobody knows you exist." "If you're too cowardly to trust in your own skills and your own integrity, what will the next 10 years be like for you?" "The money is the silent reward for a job well done." "If marketing yourself and your business makes you uncomfortable, you have a choice. You can cower in the face of that discomfort, or step up." "For heaven's sake, go out and tell someone what you do today, and then do it again tomorrow."

Watch here: https://youtu.be/BbypHaRpOtAAbout the Guest: Victoria Hajjar is the founder of Ugli Ventures and a marketing strategist with deep experience building brands from the inside out. With a background that spans A&E, real estate development in China, and leading marketing departments for high-growth companies, Victoria has learned to build marketing engines that are scalable, measurable, and ready for acquisition. Her superpower? Turning messy marketing into a growth asset—fast.Summary: In this episode of How2Exit, host Ron Skelton sits down with Victoria Hajjar, founder and CEO of Ugli Ventures, for an energetic, no-fluff conversation about what it really takes to build a marketing machine that adds value in an M&A context. Instead of chasing vanity metrics or relying on branding for branding's sake, Hajjar breaks down the systems, scorecards, and human factors that make marketing a driver—not a passenger—of enterprise value. Whether you're a seller prepping for exit or a buyer looking to avoid post-acquisition marketing disasters, this is required listening. Victoria doesn't just theorize—she's been on the acquisition side and knows firsthand what it looks like to inherit a marketing mess… or a marketing moat.Key Takeaways:Marketing departments often feel the most vulnerable in acquisitions because buyers usually already have their own team. But dismissing the seller's marketing team too quickly risks losing the local expertise and systems that are driving current revenue.Buyers should pause before overhauling anything—Victoria recommends a 60-90 day observation window before making marketing changes post-acquisition.Most sellers don't have a documented, measurable marketing system, and this lack of structure reduces perceived business value.Brand value isn't just logos or followers—it's trust, relationships, and conversion rates. You need to prove that your audience responds to your messaging with measurable action.Having one “rainmaker” on the marketing team is risky. Buyers want marketing systems that are transferable and not tied to individual talent.Scorecards, SOPs, and a full-funnel strategy (not just top-of-funnel lead gen) are what differentiate valuable marketing machines from chaotic ones.AI can't replace human accountability. You can use AI tools for implementation and analysis, but you still need a human to own the marketing outcomes and make judgment calls.Hyper-personalization is the future of marketing. With AI, customers will expect messages tailored to their unique context. Businesses need to prepare for that now—or get left behind.--------------------------------------------------Contact Victoria onLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/victoria-hajjar/Website: http://www.ugliventures.com/--------------------------------------------------

How Can Marketing Automation and AI Transform Your Small Business? In this episode of Grow Your Business & Grow Your Wealth, Gary Heldt interviews Chris Troka, founder of Focused-Biz, a marketing and automation agency helping small businesses access the same powerful tools and resources as large corporations. Chris Troka shares his entrepreneurial journey from running an award-winning wedding DJ business to pivoting during COVID-19 to launch Focused-Biz, a marketing and automation agency. With a background in marketing and a passion for helping small businesses compete with larger corporations, Chris explains how he's leveraging AI and marketing automation to level the playing field for entrepreneurs and solopreneurs. 5 Key Takeaways → Marketing expertise is often what business owners lack most - they may excel at their craft but struggle with marketing and sales fundamentals. → When optimizing websites, focus on customer experience rather than keyword stuffing - reducing friction in the buyer's journey is essential. → AI tools can dramatically improve content creation, personalization, and customer service efficiency without requiring deep technical knowledge. → B2B (business-to-business) sales cycles typically take 8-15 months, while B2C (business-to-consumer) decisions happen within 3-4 weeks - requiring different marketing approaches. → Business owners don't need to understand everything about new technologies - partner with experts who can guide implementation while you focus on your core business. Quotes from Chris "I see AI as another great tool. The more training that we put into it, the better it will be... With that shift and disruption in the labor market, that just becomes a new opportunity for people to learn a new skill."

In this Marketing Makeover Strategy Session, I sit down with Brandi Wolf, a certified meditation teacher and author, to help her improve email engagement. Brandi has an established email list but struggles with getting her audience to interact. We dive into practical strategies to increase engagement, create meaningful conversations, and ensure her emails resonate with the right people. If you've ever felt like your emails are getting ignored, this episode is for you!Key Takeaways:✅ Marketing is a conversation – Stop talking at your audience and start talking with them.✅ Audience, Offer, and Messaging must align – If engagement is low, one of these might be off.✅ Engagement > List Size – A smaller, engaged list is more valuable than a large, disengaged one.✅ Ask your audience what they want – The best marketing comes from knowing your people, not guessing.✅ Personalized follow-ups matter – Send individual emails to top subscribers instead of relying only on mass messages.✅ Micro commitments boost engagement – Require small actions (like sign-ups) to increase participation.

MARKETING IS A MUST- Busting a major myth in the coaching industry: "If I'm a great coach, clients will automatically find me." Many new coaches believe that being skilled is enough, but running a coaching business means understanding marketing, visibility, and outreach. In this episode, we'll break down why coaching is different from a coaching business, why marketing is not a dirty word, and practical steps to attract the right clients. If you've been waiting for clients to show up without putting yourself out there, this episode will be the wake-up call you need. Key Takeaways: Marketing is not manipulative—it's simply sharing how you help people. If people don't know what you do, how can they choose to work with you? Being a great coach doesn't guarantee clients. Businesses require marketing, networking, and visibility to attract and retain customers. You must decide what kind of coaching career you want. Do you want to work for someone else or build a business that allows you to work for yourself? Listener Challenge: Take action today! Write down three ways you can intentionally market yourself this week- whether it's posting valuable content, reaching out to potential clients, asking for referrals, or networking with others. Identify one platform where you can experiment consistently sharing your expertise (blog, podcast, YouTube, social media, or speaking engagements). Say out loud: "I'm a life coach, and I help people." Then, tell at least one person what you do and how you can help them.

What is the one best way to make money that no one's talking about? In this episode, Rob and Kane explore how attention has become currency in today's digital world. From generating 38.7 million views in 28 days to turning content into commerce, Rob shares strategies on how to leverage both organic and paid marketing to build wealth. The conversation evolves from traditional networking to AI disruption, giving lessons in modern marketing that could transform your business. KEY TAKEAWAYS Marketing is the single most important function of any business, yet most people focus on everything else. Without effective marketing, even the best products won't sell themselves. The evolution of marketing has gone from expensive traditional media to pay-per-click disruption by Google, then to social media dominance, and now AI is the new frontier. Each phase presents unique opportunities for businesses to capture attention. Content strategy should follow a "content bridge offer" formula, where only 1 in 5-10 posts contains a direct call to action. This prevents algorithm punishment while maintaining engagement and sales potential. Long form content provides better quality leads and can be repurposed into multiple short form pieces across different platforms, maximising reach and engagement while minimising additional production costs. Organic content becomes cheaper over time while paid advertising typically becomes more expensive, suggesting a balanced approach using both strategies is optimal for sustainable growth. Visibility equals credibility in modern marketing, sometimes being seen widely can be more valuable than deep expertise without exposure, this is the importance of consistent content creation. BEST MOMENTS "The true currency is not time. It's not money. It's attention. Whilst I would argue value is also the true currency, there's plenty of people getting attention online with no value." "Marketing is attention. Marketing is being known. Marketing is being seen. Marketing is mind space. Think of a fizzy drink, what do you think of? Whatever you think of, they're better at marketing." "If you don't ever sell on social media, you're never going to make any money, so it's just a really fucking expensive hobby, which demoralises you over time." "For seven years I never paid any income tax because of capital allowances... now I do pay quite a lot of tax, but I pay a lot less than I might if I didn't know how to get my tax bill down legally."

Ever tried everything to grow your business, only to feel hopeless about your marketing and sales? Mark Drager shares a story about a business owner who, despite 10+ years of experience and an established team, found nothing generated new business. Despite trying SEO, paid ads, social media, content marketing, networking, and cold calling - nothing moved leads through the sales process. This sparked a crucial insight: Marketing is an amplification tool. Mark illustrates this using movies - audiences don't blame theaters for bad films, they blame Hollywood. Similarly, businesses must examine what they're amplifying before focusing on distribution. What matters is saying the right message to the right people at the right time. When multiple approaches fail, the issue often isn't the marketing channel - it's what you're trying to communicate and to whom. Key Takeaways: Marketing amplifies your message - focus on what you're saying before how you're distributing it When proven approaches stop working, examine if your market has shifted Look at your price point, targeting, and messaging before changing tactics again Follow Mark: LinkedIn: https://hi.switchy.io/markdrager Instagram: https://hi.switchy.io/KcKi Want more free tools?

Marketing in the yoga space makes me actively cringe sometimes.When I venture outside my very tightly curated algorithm, I find a whole world of matching athleisurewear sets, “quick tips for the best down-dog”, handstand tutorials, and a whole lot of things that don't make me think of the rich and nurturing practice of yoga that I have come to love.But is that what we need in order to market ourselves in this current yoga space?Tristan Katz slides into the chat with the best marketing advice ever. I can't wait for you to hear it.KEY TAKEAWAYS*Marketing and experiences need to match. If you are marketing your business or studio, make sure there is congruence between the two. Nobody wants to come into a yoga class or space thinking it is one thing and getting another. And if you feel like you need to do things in order to market your business that aren't exactly “you”, well you don't. I promise.*Everything we do that communicates with our customers is marketing. The signs, the social media, the value statements–that is marketing. When you talk about how hard it is to run a business, or get students, that is also marketing. I am big fan of the idea that marketing is like trying to get laid. Make sure there is enthusiastic consent in all things and marketing and business get a lot more fun.*Check boxes to be a good person from anyone is marketing. Consider using stories and relating to people instead of the “5 ways to improve ” type strategy that the 2010s made so popular online. *Please consider marketing like building Relationships vs. trying to make transactions. There are a lot of things you could quote from marketing terminology, for example the “know, like, & trust factor”, but essentially it is just nicer to build relationships than it is to see people as transactions.*Finding your voice as a teacher is a lot like finding your voice as a marketer. Start with asking yourself the question, “is there something I am always talking about?” regarding yoga and see where that thread leads you. It is an excellent place to start.*We're not selling widgets, this is yoga and we should be approaching marketing yoga with as much grace, joy, and humanity as we approach everything else.

You're spending money on PPC ads, on improving SEO performance, and attending multiple events. How do you know which of these investments is paying off? That's what Marketing Attribution is all about.In this episode of The Marketing Mix, we're talking to Steffen Hedebrandt, CMO and co-founder of Dreamdata, about the importance of marketing attribution for small and mid-sized B2B companies. We discuss the challenges of tracking complex buyer journeys, and the different attribution models that can be used – from First Touch to Last Touch and everything in between. Steffen highlights the importance of data hygiene, and making sure you have your processes set up to collect the right data at the right time.  So that you can then make informed decisions about marketing investments. And we talk about the limitations of Google Analytics for B2B attribution, where understanding account activity is as important as tracking individuals.Key Takeaways:Marketing attribution is about understanding the path or journey your customers take, to then focus on the most successful marketing tactics and scale them effectively. First-Touch Attribution: For B2B, particularly with long sales cycles, the first touch model can be very useful.

Seeing the positive change digital communities can create, Brynne is passionate about using social media for good. After nearly a decade in DC working on campaigns at every level – from grassroots to global – she's had a front-row seat to test and develop proven digital strategies that motivate audiences to take action. Brynne's expertise in empathy-based marketing helps brands cut through the noise and connect with their audiences on a deeper level. Key Takeaways:Marketing campaigns that have organizations treat their audience as the human beings that they are will win all the time, they are the ones that tend to have top-performing campaigns. Social media platforms are social environments that were created with dialogue, community, and relationship-building in mind. When you use social media as a communal environment, that's when you'll start to see your community thrive. Authenticity and transparency are the two things that people are hungry for. The more authentic and transparent you can be, the more encouraged people will be to trust you and connect with you. Build a relationship with your audience the same way that you build a relationship with people in real life. Reveal things about you gradually, don't overwhelm them with information. Present one person, one idea, one concept, and make them feel like they are able to participate in solving the problem.  “If we were to maintain this priority of creating communities that were making a positive impact on the world, we had to come at it with this approach of empathy first and humans first.” “Showing the humans behind your organization can be really impactful. Showing videos that kind of pull back the curtain and just feature some of the real authentic stories can create that relationship with your audience.” “You don't have to present the problem in its entirety all at once. That actually creates a lot of confusion for people and they get overwhelmed. If you present one person, one idea, one concept for them, and do it in such a way where they can see themselves as someone who can actively participate in the problem-solving of whatever you're trying to do, then they're going to act and they're going to be emotionally connected to the cause. ”- Brynne Krispin  Reach out to Brynne Krispin at:Website: https://causefokus.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/brynnekrispinLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brynnekrispin/ Ask for and receive all you want, need and deserve without feeling rejected, ineffective, or pushy.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Jordan Spear discuss:Common pitfalls lawyers make in digital marketing. The unique challenges to marketing for your unique way of doing business. Creative content creation to stand out in the market. What to look for in a marketing agency.  Key Takeaways:Marketing can help you to stabilize your inflow pipeline and allows you to bring in clients beyond just the referrals. Every law firm sees their business differently, even when they are in the same practice area. You need to know the firm to know how to market appropriately to their audience. When working with a marketing firm, they need to understand your firm - if they have a recommendation right out of the gate, they may not be the right one for you. You want to be able to trust that the marketing team behind you understands what your goal is and is bringing information to you about the market.  "Marketing is not just about placement in front of everybody.

Steve is a serial entrepreneur with a proven track record for producing breakthrough revenue growth in brutally competitive marketplaces, having successfully helped grow seven startup companies from early stage to going public or being sold, resulting in nearly $5 billion in shareholder value. Steve's new book, High-Velocity Digital Marketing: Silicon Valley Secrets to Create Breakthrough Revenue in Record Time, talks about how companies can maximize their marketing impact by adjusting their marketing strategy to better address who their customers are and how they make buying decisions.  Key Takeaways:  Marketing has to focus on who your buyer is, not who you assume it is. Take the time to learn who makes buying decisions about your product.    Companies need to have a true grasp of their customers' world. Understanding customer problems will help you present your product as the solution.    Marketing should be bringing potential customers along a path from interest to purchase. Each marketing piece should encourage customers to move to the next step.    The speed with which customers move along the path is marketing velocity. Faster velocity means faster sales and faster revenue.    Providing a no-commitment point of entry into your product — like free access to a tool — changes the nature of your relationship with the customer. Your sales approach can be more consultative than persuasive.    There is no substitute for doing hard work. Marketing and sales can't be automated. It's all about doing the work to get the results you want.    When he's not helping professionals grow in their careers, Steve enjoys travel, food, wine, and spending time with his young grandchildren.  Quote of the show:   2:24"...what I've found, having led disruption at multiple places is hard work. And to me, the most important ingredient is realizing there's no substitute for hard work. I found that you just have to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty. Today, for example, I was called by a   venture capital firm, asking if I felt that there was room in the market for a company on the low end. And it was a very simple question, but really to answer that question fully, there would be so much hard work ahead of them. And what I found is, is that no great achievements are possible or sustained without hard work. And, and hard work is the price you'll pay for the success that you desire to achieve."  Links:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevekahan/     Company Website: https://www.insightpartners.com/     To pre-order High-Velocity Digital Marketing: Silicon Valley Secrets to Create Breakthrough Revenue in Record Time:  https://www.amazon.com/High-Velocity-Digital-Marketing-Silicon-Breakthrough/dp/1637742169   Ways to Tune In:  Amazon Music - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/eccda84d-4d5b-4c52-ba54-7fd8af3cbe87/disruption-interruption  Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/disruption-interruption/id1581985755  Google Play -https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cub21ueWNvbnRlbnQuY29tL2QvcGxheWxpc3QvODE5NjRmY2EtYTQ5OC00NTAyLThjZjktYWI3YzAwMmRiZTM2LzNiZTZiNzJhLWEzODItNDhhNS04MDc5LWFmYTAwMTI2M2FiNi9kZDYzMGE4Mi04ZGI4LTQyMGUtOGNmYi1hZmEwMDEyNjNhZDkvcG9kY2FzdC5yc3M= Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6yGSwcSp8J354awJkCmJlD  Stitcher - https://www.stitcher.com/show/disruption-interruption  YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCf2zbLqmHtSHQ7u1V-Is8cA  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this very special episode, Nick presents directly from Funnel Hacking Live 2022 with associate Rob Williams, to discuss the most impactful lessons they have accumulated from this incredible event. KEY TAKEAWAYS  Marketing and advertising used to have to rely on precise targeting at the correct time. Direct response marketing required an action to be taken, and many think this art has gone away - but it hasn't. Marketing is initially about gaining views, then engaging and eliciting an emotional response in order to gain action, and then on to conversion. Effective branding leads to the initiation of a tribe - a community - who become believers in your message. Establishing this is the key to longevity and passive marketing on your part. There are two types of individuals - the drifters and the driven. When you are faced with issues, the drifters will give in, but the driven will see it through to the end. BEST MOMENTS  'There are more messages hitting us than ever before' 'Direct response is all about speed' 'Data plays such a valuable part' 'Anything is possible by following a well-defined set of principles' VALUABLE RESOURCES Scale Up with Nick Bradley: scaleup.vip/podcast Scale Up Your Business, coaching/consulting: https://suyb.global To download a free gift from Nick - The 5 Reasons Why Your Business Will Never Get To 8-Figures ... How To Fix It Fast! - https://www.scaleupmastermind.com/free-guide1 Are you ready to create your high-value exit?  Apply to work with us today at https://scaleup.vip/PredictableGrowthAssessment  ABOUT THE HOST  Nick Bradley is a renowned entrepreneur, investor, speaker, and business growth expert.

Organic content is NOT "slower" or "lesser than" paid ads. But only if you create your organic content with a focus on lead-gen from the start. Otherwise, it's easy to fall into the "content for the sake of publishing" trap. Did your last YouTube video produce a lead or a sale? If it did not, then it wasn't marketing; it was just content publishing. Marketing is measured with leads and sales, not views, subscribers, or other vanity metrics. As a marketer, always keep this in mind. Most people never consider YouTube as a lead source, but I will reveal to you today that it's one of the biggest ways we get daily leads here at our company. In this episode, I show you exactly how we do it and the pitfalls to watch out for. Tune in! Key Takeaways - Marketing is leads and sales (01:02) - Ask for the lead (02:15) - Sell the hole, not the drill (04:03) - Seek leads out of YouTube (04:57 - YouTube videos are assets to overcome sale objections (08:14) - The YouTube pie is so big… (08:25) - Go where your customer is (10:40) Additional Resources  Learn more about: Youtube Lead Machine  Capitalist Pig NFT  Buy Your First NFT --- Download Season 1 episodes here -- Sales Funnels Radio is a podcast for all passionate digital marketing pros looking to up their game and stay ahead.

In the new episode of the ‘Conquer New Markets' podcast, Levent is joined by Mike Korba, the Chief Commercial Officer and Co-founder of User.com and marketing automation expert. Join Levent and Mike as they discuss how the use of CRMs have changed over the past years, how important marketing is for any company's business strategy, what MACH and CDP are and how it can help your marketing strategy in the long run, the importance of human touch in marketing and how to balance it with your automation and what awaits us in 2022 in terms of marketing. KEY TAKEAWAYS Marketing activities are usually undervalued by most companies but it's the first point of contact with your clients and the most important point of a successful business strategy. CRM has turned into a huge marketing tool in the past couple of years while it was widely used by salespeople and was used for supporting people to have a relationship with current customers only a few years ago. So, any company that wants to take a step further with its marketing should start making the best use of its CRM system.

Michelle McCollough: Marketing, High Performance, & Happiness  In this episode, Cheryl and Michelle discuss: Experience is more useful than education Matching the message to the product/company The importance of maintaining a “Home court advantage” with your business Having followers is NOT the same as having an e-mail list. All SM platforms could change any time, but an email list is yours   Key Takeaways: Marketing is about taking risks. There are no guarantees in good marketing People are looking at the individuals behind your organization, they want to onnect with the personalities behind your brand. You need regular “service posts” on your SM platforms- If you're not serving your customer, they will not pay attention Selling posts are OK, but only about 10% of the time, you need service posts in between "Marketing is really just education, but the magic of marketing comes when you feel it with who you are, what you do, and bring your own genius to the table. So when you can embrace your own personality as part of your brand, that is magic.

In this episode Lauren and Meredith discuss: Redefining the word, “brag”  For the “qualified quiet” - getting your voice heard Why bragging is a necessity  Four parts to a brag Key Takeaways:Marketing and promoting yourself is an essential part of career-building. Bragging is all about sharing your accomplishments. Redirect your focus and effort from silencing loud voices to getting your voice heard. Bragging is simply stating facts. It's full of alot of feelings, but it's all about stating the facts to the right people so that they can know about it. Cultivate internal gratitude and pride and translate that into presentation and showmanship.  “As much as I'd like to be optimistic and say that we could get those loud people to be quiet, that's not how we retain information. We're bombarded by so much all the time that you really have to fight to get heard.” - Meredith Fineman Reach out to Meredith Fineman at:Website: https://www.meredithfineman.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meredithfineman/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/meredithcfinemanTwitter: https://twitter.com/MeredithFinemanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meredithfineman/ Reach out to Lauren at:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurenherring/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LaurenHerringCareerExpertTwitter: https://twitter.com/laurenherringIMPACT Group Website: www.impactgrouphr.comEarn Your Worth Website: www.earnyourworthcareers.comIMPACT Group LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/impact-group/Earn Your Worth LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/earn-your-worth-careers/Get the book, Take Control of Your Job Search here:Paperback Book: https://amzn.to/3tibaCzebook: https://amzn.to/3dk4Cy5

Getting a customer is one thing, but keeping them is the hard part.  In this episode, Aransas and Dave speak with Heidi Bowman, a 30 year veteran in Marketing and Business Development and the VP of Marketing & Business Development at Silex Financial Group, a residential and commercial mortgage broker, about ways to keep customers connected to companies through experience strategies.     IN THIS EPISODE:  [02:30] How mortgage brokers differentiate themselves through their services and product offering. [06:00] Heidi says Silex sets itself apart from the competition by offering exclusive services to their clients. [12:00] Heidi describes the homebuying process for their clients by analyzing the wants and needs of each particular client. [14:30] How the mortgage company adjusts to today's housing market by becoming the “home buyer advisor” for clients who may be overwhelmed and battling buyer's remorse.  [18:00] How they extend their relationships beyond just the mortgage buying process to cultivate repeat customers and referrals. [24:00] How Heidi utilizes tactics like storytelling and social media to differentiate Silex from other companies and connect with their clients and potential leads. [29:00] Aransas and Dave give tips on how Silex can continue to connect with their customers in different ways as social media and marketing evolves. [36:00] Dave suggests collecting stories from Heidi and her customers to help people connect to the company and for Silex to get a deeper understanding of customer needs.   KEY TAKEAWAYS:  Marketing is important for growth, but loyalty is the byproduct of the experience.  There's a big difference between advice-giving and understanding. Relationships are built on trust and understanding. People want advice, but they need understanding in order to hear it. Authentic stories focused on the experience are powerful ways of creating connection and loyalty and allowing individuals to see new possibilities.    Links Mentioned: Bringithomewithheidi.com   BIO:   Heidi is a 30 plus year veteran in Marketing and Business Development and the VP of Marketing &  Business Development at Silex Financial Group, a North Jersey-based residential and commercial mortgage broker.

Chris Michaels is an Entrepreneur and a direct response marketing ninja! He's not a real estate investor, and that's actually a good thing. When it comes to marketing, many real estate investors operate in the stone age. This is why Alex has a guy like Chris on to bring an outside perspective on marketing, and how we can reach our ideal prospects to maximize our ROI. Key Takeaways: Marketing and sales will always be at the heart of any business. No matter what your industry. Real estate investors are behind the times when it comes to marketing. Chris isn't in real estate, and that's actually a good thing. How did Chris get started in marketing? Chris's first ad on Facebook was a total flop. If you understand sales and marketing, you'll never starve. How did Chris get started in the real estate space? Believe it or not, social media and marketing are easier than you think it might be. We tend to overcomplicate things. People associate trust with consistency. People can be too impatient when it comes to their ads and don't give it enough time to just “sit” and see if it works. When you serve people on a powerful level, they'll naturally trust you, and even better, they'll tell other people about it too. How many people would get in line when they don't even know what it is for? People follow the leader even when it doesn't make sense to. How do real estate investors generate more social proof? Take your customers through a journey that makes them truly feel the experience. Emotions drive sales. How do you discover who is a motivated seller vs. not? Marketing takes constant experimentation and tweaks. It takes time to figure out the perfect formula. It's so important to figure out who your avatar is and cater to them in your marketing materials. Alex loves Chris's products. Nobody can tell your story as well as you can tell your story.

Key Takeaways: Marketing isn't as glamorous as social media can often make it seem.  Proactively share what your competitors are doing from a marketing perspective with the senior leaders at your company. This allows you to control the narrative about why your brand is or isn't using that specific channel or tactic. The value of your "yes" is determined by how many times you say "no."  Full Shownotes: https://www.lumavate.com/podcasts/silver-bullets-marketing-dont-exist

Many advertising agencies believe that sexy is what sells in today's marketplace, but Travis Chambers, Chief Media Hacker and Founder of Chamber.Media, takes a different approach. He believes that understanding and relating to the audience is what makes a good advertising campaign: "We all want to be working on the cool, sexy thing." Travis says. "But I've seen some of the stuff that's not very sexy do really well. It's all about performance". On this episode of Marketing Trends, Travis sits down with Ian Faison to discuss his philosophy about what makes a marketing campaign great and how Chamber.Media differentiates itself from the competition. Travis discusses virality and social media, and also how to integrate these new forms of marketing with more traditional campaigns.   Links: Full Notes & Quotes: http://bit.ly/2qqELhO Travis’s LinkedIn: http://bit.ly/2MrQ4yD Travis’s Twitter: http://bit.ly/2VTZar6 Chamber.Media: http://bit.ly/33HGVrx   3 Key Takeaways: - Marketing is not always about what is sexy; it’s about connecting with and relating to the audience. - Social ads are a great way to reach your target audience, but they’re not the only way and should be used in the context of a wider campaign. - The biggest challenge in marketing is making people care about ads.

Most importantly it needs to be thoughtful and useful. It needs to share something consumers can learn from. - Failure happens when product, distribution, and pricing aren't aligned and communicated clearly. - Marketing needs to meet prospective customers where they are already at and speak to the pain points they're feeling at that moment. - At the same time, you need to stay ahead of what your customers are looking for. This means thinking about the future and what your customers will want down the road. - Over-communicate and never take for granted that your brand and your message are already known.   Bio Laura Luckman Kelber is SVP of Marketing at Flexera.

Key Takeaways: Marketing is harder today than it’s ever been because of the sheer quantity of channels we have access to as marketers. That’s why it’s crucial for a modern marketer to have curiosity, passion, and resilience. Don’t assume that you need a voice strategy because it’s a hot topic. You need to figure out whether it makes sense for your brand becoming making the decision to invest in voice. We need to be constantly learning. It doesn’t matter whether that’s through reading books, listening to podcasts, networking with people, etc. as long as you’re pushing yourself every day to learn more.

Bulletproof Dental Practice Podcast Episode 40 Hosts: Dr. Peter Boulden & Dr. Craig Spodak Watch the full video of interview by clicking here! Key Takeaways: Marketing today can seem convoluted. You must be more strategic with marketing, rather than tactical. Fifteen years ago, you could literally buy your way to the top. People now want credibility and a story. You can either pay someone to craft a story for you, or become remarkable enough that you’re worth talking about. Find out what the authentic expression of your brand is, and exploit that. Read your reviews to see what the public is saying about you. That’s a great hack for finding your why. Scared money don’t make none. Fear psychology can really mess with your business. Take advantage of technology to create and post easy, not super polished videos and content that will help patients identify with your practice and feel as comfortable as possible making the decision to come see you. Video shows your humanity. Unfortunately, in our digital day and age it’s not good enough to just do awesome dentistry. If you don’t have reviews online, create the narrative of what you want people to say and live that. Figure out ways to give your marketing dollars back to your patient. The most brilliant marketing strategy is to CARE. That’s the easy button. References Everything is Marketing by Fred Joyal Get off the Treadmill Summit Tweetables “Things are simple, they’re just not easy.” “People don’t get burned out because of what they do, they get burned out because they forget their why.” – Dr. Craig Spodak “Success is 10% mechanics and 90% psychology.” – Dr. Craig Spodak “People are rewarded in public for what they practice for years in private.” – Tony Robbins “I’ve got the most brilliant marketing strategy ever… care.” – Gary Vaynerchuk

Kimber is a graduate from UC Davis and is pretty involved in her chapter at Northern California IFT’ section.

"Your job is to make me not worry about mobile." When David Okun's new manager empowered him to take ownership of the mobile application, David took it upon himself to implement a new process across the team. Initially met with a collection of eye-rolling, David ignored the negativity and slowly introduced practices that increased the productivity across the whole organization. His approach included a self-deprecating humor that showed the team that he was an easy-going individual that was open to feedback. David Okun is the Lead Mobile Developer at IDScan Biometrics Limited in London, England. He is responsible for managing and progressing the vision of the mobile product, the people who work on the team and the customers that use it. As an iOS developer, David has published multiple apps across the Apple App Store, most of which are on open source on GitHub.
