Episode 184: Automate Your Lead Generation with our FREE online course: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/auto-leads-course-freeMany online business owners waste months creating courses, coaching programs, or services only to discover there's no market demand when they finally launch. This leads to lost time, money, and momentum that could have been invested in profitable ventures.In this episode, Josiah Ryan teaches us how to validate offers before building them using his "rank and rent" strategy. He explains how to generate traffic first, test market demand by selling leads or affiliate products, and only invest in creating the full offer once you've proven people will actually buy. This approach eliminates the guesswork and ensures your time is spent building something that's guaranteed to sell.About Josiah Ryan: Josiah is a Fractional CMO, marketing strategist, podcast host, and author of the upcoming book “Questions Are Your Weapons”.He first made his mark in digital marketing by launching an SEO agency that helped over 100 business owners scale across dozens of industries—generating well over $50 million in combined client revenue. From high-ticket service businesses to local operators, Josiah developed a reputation for simplifying complex problems and building lean systems that actually convert.After running both his agency and his own high-growth rental business, he launched Competitive Edge Consulting to bring real marketing leadership to founders who are tired of guessing and ready to scale with clarity.Today, Josiah serves as a trusted Fractional CMO for service-based businesses that want to grow without the bloat—offering strategy, structure, and execution without the inflated retainers.

In this episode, I dive deep into what it really takes to build a systematic marketing strategy for your veterinary practice—one that goes way beyond just running ads or posting on social media. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by all the marketing options out there, or wondered whether your efforts are actually bringing in new clients, you're not alone. I break down why marketing isn't just a collection of random tactics, but a strategic process that should consistently attract, nurture, and convert new clients for your practice. I walk you through the three core functions every veterinary marketing system needs: attracting attention, building trust and credibility, and prompting action. We'll talk about how to get your practice noticed—whether that's through SEO, PPC, social media, or community events—but more importantly, how to move beyond just being seen. I share actionable tips for building genuine trust with pet owners, from leveraging reviews and testimonials to creating educational content and nurturing relationships through email and text sequences. We also take a closer look at the most effective marketing channels for veterinary practices, including how to optimize your Google Business Profile for local SEO, when to use paid ads for quick wins, and how to make the most of organic social media to build community and loyalty. Plus, I'll give you practical advice on crafting offers, setting up follow-up systems, and tracking the metrics that actually matter so you can measure your ROI and keep improving your results. By the end of this episode, you'll have a clear, actionable framework for aligning your marketing tactics with the client journey—so you can stop guessing, start seeing real results, and turn your marketing from a source of stress into a powerful engine for growth. Whether you're just getting started or looking to take your practice's marketing to the next level, this episode is packed with insights and strategies you can put to work right away.

If you're spending hours creating beautiful content that gets crickets for engagement, the problem isn't your design skills or your expertise. It's probably your content topics! This episode will show you exactly how to fix it. Today I'm breaking down the framework I use to evaluate every single content topic before it goes live. Here's the truth: a great content topic can make mediocre design and copy perform well, but even the most beautiful, expertly crafted content will flop if the topic doesn't land. I spend more time ideating content topics than I do on creative, editing, or scripting, because when you nail the topic, everything else becomes easier. I'm sharing the exact 5 filter system I use to test whether a content topic will actually stop the scroll and convert, or if it's destined to get lost in the noise. From understanding the difference between "specific" and "niche" (they're not the same thing) to making sure your topics showcase your unique expertise without being too broad, this framework will transform how you approach content creation. I'm giving you real examples from my own content, including posts that could have performed better and exactly how I would fix them using this system. Plus, I'm sharing how this process saves me time on caption writing because when your content topic is strong enough, you don't need to rely on heavy captions to carry the message. In today's episode, we're talking about: Why content topics matter more than design or copy  The difference between "specific" and "niche"  How to make content personal to your expertise without making it hyper niche The attention-grabbing formula that gets people to stop scrolling  Why trying to teach a "whole textbook" in one post is killing your engagement Connect with me:  Website Join our email list!
