Flodesk has quickly grown to a $30 million ARR business while remaining completely bootstrapped.In this episode of "Uploading...," Martha shares strategies for creating engaging email content, growing a subscriber list, and using email to build authentic audience relationships. She covers key topics like email design, subject line optimization, and future trends like AI-powered email marketing. Martha also provides actionable insights on deliverability, segmentation, automation, and more.Today, we'll cover:- Why email marketing is still one of the most effective channels for creators and businesses- Martha's favorite tactics for rapidly growing your email list and keeping subscribers engaged- The ideal email content and design elements that drive opens, clicks and conversions- How segmentation and personalization can supercharge your email performance- The future of email marketing and how AI will enable solopreneurs to compete with big businessesWhat You'll Learn1.

Automations and Workflows in Email Marketing6. Best Practices in Email Design and Content7. Factors Affecting Email Deliverability8. Relationship Between Open Rates, Deliverability, and Spam9.

So every single email, it can't just hit the inbox, it has to stand out, it has to engage from the beginning. It has to be hyper optimized for conversion. And text based without any of your brand just doesn't cut it anymore, right? And not just for solopreneurs. We actually we looked at a case study with Stripe. Stripe is a massive company, right? I think it's the largest private company in the world and they A/B tested a text-based email and one that was actually optimize for conversion using their own brand. And the on brand design-based email increased conversion by 21%. So whether you're a very small business or a large business, like design is not a luxury anymore.” — Martha Bitar, 00:03:32 → 00:04:14.160Why Owning Your Audience Matters: “The risk is not using it [email] because you saw what happened with TikTok, right? It can really disappear overnight and you're really on rented space. You don't own your audience. So over all of the effort that you put into building that followership and engagement can really go away. Where if you're building that on social media, but you're also saying, ‘Hey, by the way, join my newsletter.' That's the list that you own. You're not platform-dependent. Even if we at some point make a mistake and become like a dinosaur as well, and you want to jump ship and go to another platform, you can just download and export your entire subscriber list and go use another platform.” — Martha Bitar, 00:18:48 → 00:19:25Show notes powered by Castmagic---Have any questions about the show or topics you'd like us to explore further?Shoot us a DM; we'd love to hear from you.Want the weekly TL;DR of tips delivered to your mailbox?Check out our newsletter here.Follow us for content, clips, giveaways, & updates!Castmagic InstagramCastmagic TwitterCastmagic LinkedIn  ---Blaine Bolus - Co-Founder of CastmagicRamon Berrios - Co-Founder of CastmagicMartha Bitar - Co-Founder and CEO of Flodesk

What is RevOps anyway and how is it different from SalesOps?  What do I as the CEO need to know about RevOps?In a recent episode of Sales Talk for CEOs, Eddie Reynolds, a seasoned expert in Revenue Operations (RevOps), shared crucial insights for CEOs looking to boost efficiency and enhance customer experiences. Eddie's expertise centers on aligning sales, marketing, and customer success teams to optimize overall revenue operations. Here are the simplified, actionable insights from Eddie, aimed at CEOs who are ready to leverage RevOps effectively in their organizations.Key Takeaways for CEOs:Defining Revenue Operations: Eddie describes RevOps as an evolution of sales and marketing operations. It aims to bridge the gaps between siloed departments to streamline the customer journey and improve revenue efficiency. "RevOps looks at the entire revenue engine, aiming to increase revenue efficiently and reduce costs," Eddie explains.Aligning Teams for Greater Efficiency: Misalignment between marketing and sales is a common barrier to growth. RevOps centralizes functions to ensure all departments work towards the same revenue goals, thus enhancing lead conversion and customer retention. Eddie highlights, "RevOps was developed to tackle the classic disconnects between marketing, sales, and customer success."Focusing on Customer Value: Shifting the focus from lead quantity to lead quality—those likely to convert and offer long-term value—is crucial. This strategy demands a deep understanding of customer profiles and targeted marketing. Eddie advises, "Targeting should revolve around the lifetime value of customers, aligning marketing, sales, and customer success."The Role of Technology in RevOps: Adopting the right tech stack is crucial for effective RevOps. Technology should enhance visibility across the sales funnel and support data-driven decision-making, helping track and optimize the customer journey. "While building a tech stack is vital, it's about more than just technology—it's about supporting the go-to-market strategy," Eddie notes.From Theory to Practice Here are a few ways to apply these RevOps strategies within your own organization.Action Steps for CEOs:Evaluate your RevOps strategy: Ensure it aligns with your company's revenue goals and includes all relevant departments.Train your team: Equip them with the knowledge to understand and implement RevOps principles effectively.Invest in technology: Choose tools that enhance data analysis and inter-departmental communication.Watch the full episode here to grasp the complete range of insights Eddie offers about enhancing your business operations through RevOps.Subscribe to Sales Talk for CEOs for expert insights tailored for top executives.

He was fascinated by the edge it could give an entire company. During his time at Salesforce, he covered high-growth VC-backed B2B SaaS companies, meeting hundreds of executive revenue leaders. They cared more about that strategic edge than how the software worked. His consulting partners, however, focused on the software, missing the broader GTM strategy. This resulted in many failed implementations and missed revenue targets. It inspired him to start a consulting firm merging system implementation with data-driven GTM strategy: Union Square Consulting.Social Links Connect with Eddie on LinkedIn:(26) Eddie Reynolds | LinkedInUnion Square Consulting LinkedIn:(26) Union Square Consulting: Overview | LinkedInWebsite:Home - Union Square ConsultingConnect with Alice on LinkedIn:(99+) Alice Heiman | LinkedInCheck out Alice's website:Alice Heiman | Sales Consultant and Strategist for CEOs

If you're measuring everything, you're measuring nothing. It's so important for you to pick a handful of key performance indicators (KPIs) for your team to focus on — or they won't end up moving the needle on anything. But how do you pick KPIs that matter, so you can motivate and incentivize your team to drive customer value (and ultimately, growth)? Instead of transactional measures of success, focus on customer-focused KPIs that let you measure moments of value. You need to know which parts of your product drive customer value and measure your ability to move them from one milestone to the next. In this episode of the Forget the Funnel Podcast — the first of two episodes on customer-led KPIs — Claire and Georgiana define customer-led KPIs and share why metrics that focus on helping customers solve problems are more actionable and motivating for your team.Discussed:The definition of KPIs and why each team needs them.Why focusing on transactional measures is a problem — and why measuring experiential moments in the customer relationship is the way to go.The prerequisites for setting customer-led KPIs and the importance of knowing which parts of your product drive value for the customer.Key Moments:2:30 - Georgiana defines KPIs and shares why they're a critical metric. She explains that when you measure everything, you're measuring nothing, so your team needs to focus on a few KPIs. 3:47 - Claire and Georgiana differentiate transactional measures of success — like trial-to-paid conversions or entering a credit card — from customer-focused KPIs, which measure experiential moments in the customer relationship. 6:40 - Georgiana explains why transactional measures of success can be problematic KPIs (even though lagging indicators like MRR and churn do matter).10:37 - Claire shares why it's a mistake to measure your growth team by lead numbers rather than focusing on lead quality or the value they can get down the line. Gia also speaks to success indicators that can be misleading, like daily, weekly, and monthly users, and breaks down MQLs, SQLs, and PQLs.16:10 - Claire asks Georgiana to share about the prerequisites for defining customer-led KPIs that tie your team's success to customer value.19:29 - Georgiana talks about how common it is for product teams to get so excited about their offering that they throw the kitchen sink at new customers because they're not sure about what parts of their product they should introduce to customers in which order.21:30 - The pair ends the episode by talking about converting customers in a low-touch way: You need to know the parts of the product that drive value and measure your ability to help customers get from one milestone to the next. Follow Georgiana on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgianalaudi/ Follow Claire on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/clairesuellentrop/Check out Forget the Funnel's website: https://forgetthefunnel.com/Get the free Forget the Funnel workbook to help you implement Customer-Led Growth: https://forgetthefunnel.com/workbook

I want to build a referable business," the number one thing they all have to do–it's why it's also available for free, like I talk about on my podcast, it's in my book, it's on my website in our resources link–is identifying your referral sources. And most people don't come to me with that tracker I just talked about for the last five years. Most people come to me and they're like, "Oh, I don't know, some people refer me. It's great. I wish I could have more of them." And so I then have them recreate that data from the last three to four years. You could just avoid that headache if you started tracking.Connect with ElzieLinkedInContact Stacey Brown RandallWebsiteLinkedInMentioned in this episode:Podcast TownCheck out our services for your B2B brand!

Brianna Deboever discusses how marketing can be a great blending of worlds when it comes to being creatively and analytically minded. She and Danny chat about how important it is to track, understand, organize, and share lead quality rather than just quantity when optimizing paid campaigns. Finally, they review how CRMs and UTMs come in very handy to do just those things to bring about a successful, high-quality lead-generating campaign. An Optidge "Office Hours" EpisodeOur Office Hours episodes are your go-to for details, how-to's, and advice on specific marketing topics. Join our fellow Optidge team members, and sometimes even 1:1 teachings from Danny himself, in these shorter, marketing-focused episodes every few weeks. Get ready to get marketing!Episode HighlightsLead quality is a key element often overlooked by agencies. Customer Relationship Management is a platform or program that stores and organizes data relating to leads to better inform the marketing team to optimize the campaigns and conversion process. UTMs are specific parameters appended to a URL when a user visits your website that denotes the source, medium, campaigns, and more that brought them to your website. It's essential to track the quality of a lead to ensure you're not optimizing on flawed data. This means connecting UTMs to one's CRM so you can track the sources and more, bringing in truly viable and high-quality leads. One must also ensure they track all types of conversions, including phone calls. CRMs can be incredibly helpful for marketing a business, but utilizing them must be a priority. Optidge recommends assigning one or two team members the goal and focus of updating, grading, and disseminating the information in the CRM. This is imperative to ensure up-to-date, useful data is used to optimize PPC campaigns and marketing efforts.Guest + Episode LinksBrianna DeboeverLinkedInInstagramFollow The Digital Marketing Mentor: Website and Blog: thedmmentor.com Instagram: @thedmmentor Linkedin: @thedmmentor YouTube: @thedmmentor Interested in Digital Marketing Services, Careers, or Courses?

Generating thousands of leads with Google Ads doesn't mean diddly if Google sends you all low-quality leads. And yet, that's a problem many real estate investors face, especially with Google's new algorithmic bidding function.  Algorithmic bidding is an easier and, in theory, more effective way to run your Google Ads campaigns. But by default, Google prefers sending you a higher volume of low-quality leads rather than a lower volume of high-quality leads.  But don't worry — even though Google secretly wants to steal your money by sending you low-quality leads, there is an easy way to prevent this.  In this episode, you'll discover a few tweaks you can make in your Google Ads campaigns today to instantly boost your lead quality.  Listen now.  Show highlights include:  The new, easier, and more effective way of letting Google's algorithms run your ads for you (3:29)  The sneaky “Form Snippet” secret which forces Google to send you higher quality leads (10:22)  How to set different values for your leads in Google so you land better leads (and why almost no investors know this trick) (16:30)  Why Google secretly wants you send you lower quality leads (and how to prevent Google from stealing your investment) (19:44)  If you want to connect with Sief and see how his software can grow your short-term rental portfolio, visit his website here: https://techvestor.com/   To get the latest updates directly from Dan and discuss business with other real estate investors, join the REI marketing nerds Facebook group here: http://adwordsnerds.com/group Need help with your online marketing?

Accompanying blogpost: Avoiding growth at all costs: Why we optimize lead quality before focusing on volume and cost---When B2B SaaS companies take investment – particularly VC – it's hard for them to resist spending incremental amounts on PPC without a thought to the quality of the leads that they're winning.In fact, most B2B SaaS companies focus scaling paid media completely backwards and the result is bad leads, high spend and almost nothing to show for it. The approach that we take with our client's paid media is to focus on scaling quality before scaling volume and then optimizing the cost.In this article, we look at: Common mistakes companies make when scaling campaigns Why lead quality is more important than quantity Our process for optimizing your campaigns By the end, you'll know how to create a simple, effective plan for optimizing your leads and getting the best results from your PPC campaigns.===SaaS Marketing Bites is produced by B2B SaaS marketing agency Powered by Search.

In this episode, Joel, and Andy walk you through what you need to do to improve both the quantity and quality of your inbound leads. As well as how to keep things organised so that no opportunity slips through your fingers.   The 3 simple techniques they share can be used by any type of entrepreneur.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   Keep collecting leads. Your pipeline or funnel needs to always be full. You never know what is going to happen, how things may change. So having leads on tap is invaluable. Your leads must be of good quality. In the podcast, they explain, the difference between a good lead and a worthless one. Understand your niche and what is important to the people you serve. Be laser-focused with your advertising. The scattergun approach is a waste of time and money. Organic marketing is not free, it costs time, and it is harder to target the right demographic. Use lookalike audiences to better understand what works. Regularly, audit and update your database. Asking for a phone number is a good way to find out who is genuinely interested in what you have to offer.

What is holding your agency back from closing more clients? Why is your sales conversion rate low? Why do you seem to only get prospects that 'aren't the right fit'? If you think the answer to these questions is down to 'poor lead quality', you need to watch this video.The idea of poor lead quality is often a scapegoat for a poor sales process. It's easier to blame the prospect and the 'fit' than yourself if a call doesn't close, and this 'easy way out' is preventing 90% of Agency Owners from growing and actually making tangible financial progress.Responsibility is the cornerstone to progress, but you already knew that. So why is it if a call doesn't close, you have a tendency to project the reasoning onto the prospect and their situation, as opposed to your ability to actually close and handle their objections?Understand: Objections do NOT equal a bad fit. They merely demonstrate a lack of trust (which you are fully responsible for building). Understand: If a prospect is hard to close, it does NOT mean they are a bad fit, it may just mean you need to sharpen your sales skills.This video might 'hit hard' but it's a message everyone who isn't closing deals at the rate they'd like needs to hear.

Not every potential client is going to be a vibrational match. The timing might not be right or the lead could be experiencing stressors outside of your control, keeping them from being ready to fully participate in your program. What can you do to make sure you're attracting the ideal client? In today's episode, Mariel provides five tips to help you improve the quality of your leads.  First, not only do you need to check in with your potential clients, but also with yourself to make sure both parties are ready, mentally and emotionally to take on the program. It's up to you to make sure your funnel and application form have the right questions to help you decide whether someone is going to be a good match or not. This is why it is incredibly important to use as much precision and clarity with your language as possible. Start qualifying from the beginning of the sales call, as to not waste either of your time. Look out for key traits like are they committed to getting out of their comfort zones, willing to have a beginner's mind and be coachable, and lastly, are they resilient enough to bounce back from any setbacks along the way. But most importantly, focus on the person and their probability for success in your program. Do they have a high chance of benefiting from the course or are they just going to waste money and time? “The clarity and specificity of the qualification is going to work on the energetic plane to improve the overall quality of leads” - Mariel Diaz   In This Episode: Your leads are human beings NOT just metrics Why precision and clarity of language is so important Check your funnel, are you using language that is indirectly drawing in the wrong fit Qualifying based on whether or not they have great chances of succeeding in your program, not just if they can afford it.    Connect with Mariel: Book a call: https://marieldiaz.com/connect (https://marieldiaz.com/connect)

Can't close a call? Well, that's probably because all leads are not created equal. Or… are they? Lead quality is everything for a sales rep. It's how you tell who buys and who doesn't.

Lead Quality with Justin Brock by Eric Fierro

Hey everyone! On today's episode of Ignite I am excited to announce we have one of the top healthcare marketers in the country on the line with us. Anaye Milligan of Houston Methodist has been hard at work changing how we look at lead quantity vs lead quality and he shares his insights with us on Ignite!

Click and Listen to Joe  Our guest is Joe Chernov. He's the Chief Marketing Officer at @InsightSquared. He also lends a hand to startups and wildlife causes when he can. Diving right in, he says, "It's unbelievable what you can get done if you don't care if you get fired!" Talking about his experience at Eloqua, "If we were to publish something that is valuable, we could edge our way into deeper coverage by the media."  Scorecard - even though we're not supposed to keep score:  16 articles after spending 2 years developing a product and writing up the release. An infographic got 800 articles. Very eye-opening.   Why it Matters   Joe says, "Content marketing is what happens when a marketing department shifts its thinking from knowing that the company that signs their paychecks needs to shift to the customer signs the paycheck."   That shift in mindset turned collateral into an ebook, a self-serving whitepaper into a more valuable, lengthy piece of content.    Point: The opportunity to leverage the correct content through the active sales process:   Best content ideas come from your sales people. Conversations with sales will be the source of the best ideas.   Example: They publish a issue of their "blog" once a month that includes a recap of 4-5 articles on similar content. Each month has a new theme which helps to focus the articles on that topic.    He's talking about a sales team creating an editorial calendar. You heard Matt right.   Point: Personas as a driving force for effective content.   Personas help reduce the size of your universe so that as a writer or content creator, your writing universe is smaller which helps guide the writing and allow it to be less daunting.  But, he cautions against being way too specific with a persona. "Susie Seller" is just a role in an organization. We don't need to know which college she attended or coffee brand she prefers, unless you are selling coffee.   People have a hard time comparing their content metrics to their business metrics.   The very best way to shine a light on the value of your content is to look at lead quality. Your lead or transactional content success could be measured by downloads, subscribers. These are higher value than typical leads.   You want to know did they close? Did they move deeper into the funnel than other sources? Lead Quality tops the list for this comparison and measurment.   Favorite KISS song and why: Deuce. Gene Simmons wrote it on a bus. It's about absolutely nothing. 

One of the most important steps to developing a mobile marketing campaign is to find quality leads. However, while every organization is likely to have different methods to find and categorize its leads, there are a few common misconceptions that could hamper your company's lead organization. https://viralsolutions.net/common-misconceptions-about-lead-quality-in-marketing/

https://baremetrics.com/blog/marketing-idea-scoring-system What if you could put a system in place that instantly scores and prioritizes any marketing idea you had? You could focus in on exactly the strategies that are most likely bring you a return on your effort while minimizing costs and increasing impact. #synergy amirite?!? Lucky for you, we’ve got a system for doing just that, and I’ll walk you through how to set it up and get going today! The implementation of this is in a Google Spreadsheet, which you’ll want to make a copy of to follow along. But, I’m getting ahead of myself! Looking for traction Earlier this year I read Gabriel Weinberg & Justin Mares’ Traction. It’s jam packed full of ideas for growing your business with a “3-step framework called Bullseye”. The framework really is great and got me thinking about all sorts of marketing channels and strategies I hadn’t considered before. The book mentions using a spreadsheet to put all of your ideas in, categorizing them and tracking a few variables to prove their viability as a strategy, so that got my wheels turning. I liked having a place to dump all the random marketing ideas. In a matter of minutes you can drum up dozens of ideas. But actually prioritizing what to go after first was much harder to come by. Given the size of our team (and that we don’t have a single person focused full-time on marketing) I wanted to be as efficient as possible with our time. To prioritize our marketing efforts, I created a scoring system that instantly priorities any marketing idea you’ve got. It tells you right away what you should be testing out next. This lets you knock out some low hanging fruit right out of the gate and help kickstart your marketing plans! Marketing Prioritization System You’ll want to make a copy of this Google Spreadsheet so you can follow along. At the basis of this is the Traction Bullseye framework, but we’ve added a full weighted scoring system on top of it to help prioritize what to go after first. I’ll walk you through the whole thing and then you can jump right in and start using it, or tweak to your heart’s content. Channel + Strategy The Channel column is for choosing one of the 19 channels mentioned in Traction. Targeting Blogs Public Relations Unconventional PR Search Engine Marketing Social & Display Ads Offline Ads Search Engine Optimization Content Marketing Email Marketing Viral Marketing Engineering as Marketing Business Development Sales Affiliate Programs Existing Platforms Trade Shows Offline Events Speaking Engagements Community Building It’s easy to write off some of these channels. “No way would a trade show ever work out for us!” But when you’re brainstorming ideas, it’s important to put it all out on the table. Mix in a scoring system for your ideas and magic! The Strategy column is where your actual idea goes. The Channel is just for categorizing them. Status You’ll likely be going through multiple ideas as the same time, so the Status column helps you keep track of where you’re at with a given idea. It’s options are Idea, Testing, Focusing, Abandoned. Testing After you’ve come up with a marketing idea, you need to test that strategy to see if it’s viable and cost effective. You’re basically starting with an educated guess on this. Not all ideas are testable or even repeatable in any sort of scalable manner, but if they are, there are a number of additional data points you’ll want to track. Customer Acquisition Costs (CAC) Response Rate Conversion Rate Customer Lifetime Value (LTV) These are numbers you can make educated guesses on from the start and then update as a test progresses. This can help you prioritize and purge ideas, especially when it comes to the economics of things. LICE: Lead Quality, Impact, Cost, Effort Now that we’ve established some baseline data points for you to collect and input as you’re creating ideas, lets look at the meat of this: scoring. Scoring here lets you quickly identify what you should try out next based on four factors. Lead Quality Impact Cost Effort LICE makes everything nice. :) We use these four factors to generate a score where the lower the number, the more accessible the marketing idea is. Let’s take a look at the four factors. Lead Quality Not all sources are created equal. Usually your highest quality leads will come from a source that sends you the lowest number of leads and the lowest quality leads will come from a source that just hammers you with traffic. Your AirBnB for Hamsters service may get lots of traffic from TechCrunch, but lets be honest…very few of those visitors will, you know, need that. But a writeup from Petco?!?! Those leads would be fantastic! Impact Impact will, many times, match up to your Lead Quality, but it’s geared more towards what the purpose of your marketing is. For instance, maybe brand awareness is a much larger focus to you as opposed to lead generation. In that case, a marketing idea could have a lower lead quality score but a high impact score. Cost Not all great ideas are expensive (in fact, many times your best ideas are actually dirt cheap). But the fact is, some ideas really can be pretty expensive (trade shows, advertising, sponsorships). If cost isn’t a big factor for your company, you can lower the weight of the “cost” in the final score (which I’ll talk about momentarily). Effort How much work will this idea take? Does the idea rest on convincing someone else to do something? Does the whole team need to get involved to pull off the idea? All of those things affect how much effort something takes. Multipliers Every company is in a different stage and what factors have an impact on you will vary. Maybe you’ve got all the time in the world but no money…that makes cost a huge multiplier. Maybe you’ve got limited time but lots of money, in that case effort would be a big multiplier. In the Settings for the system, you can set multipliers on all four variables to adjust importance. The Score Once you’ve set Lead Quality, Effort, Cost and Impact (and adjusted the various multipliers) what you get is weighted score that helps guide what marketing ideas you should try next! The lower the score, the more in line the idea is with the current stage of your company! Putting in to practice Using the Marketing System spreadsheet, you should be able to start scoring your marketing ideas instantly. It works right out of the proverbial box. I suggest jumping in and doing a brain dump of everything you can think of and then let the scoring system do its work. Don’t overthink the ratings you assign to a given idea, just go with your gut. This system obviously doesn’t actually do the marketing for you…it’s here to help you know what to go after next. If you don’t actually put it in to practice, you’ll be no better off!
