But what about an email marketing platform that's thrived for three decades?Gail Goodman, the former CEO of Constant Contact, helped build a company that defied the odds in an industry where many thought their business model wouldn't work.

In this episode of the Veterinary Marketing Podcast, I'm diving deep into what it really takes to run successful Facebook (Meta) ads for your veterinary practice. Over the past decade, I've managed millions of dollars in ad spend for local businesses, and I've seen firsthand how tricky Meta ads can be for vets. Unlike e-commerce, where you can track every sale, veterinary services have a much more complex path from ad click to booked appointment. That's why I'm breaking down the real-world strategies, common pitfalls, and proven tactics that actually work—so you don't waste your budget or your time. We'll start by talking about why Meta ads are uniquely challenging for veterinary practices, especially when it comes to tracking results and building the right marketing infrastructure. I'll share why organic content is absolutely essential before you ever spend a dollar on ads, and how to use Facebook and Instagram as top-of-funnel platforms to build awareness and nurture potential clients. We'll also cover the impact of iOS 14 privacy changes, how to set up tracking properly, and when Facebook ads are (and aren't) a good fit for your practice. Plus, I'll walk you through audience targeting, creative strategies, budgeting, and the importance of testing and iterating your campaigns. To bring it all together, I'll share real-world success stories from practices that have launched grand openings, promoted events, and introduced new services using Meta ads. We'll also talk about the long-term growth strategies you need—like CRM integration, email nurturing, and retargeting—to turn leads into loyal clients. By the end of this episode, you'll have a clear roadmap for using Facebook and Instagram ads effectively, with actionable steps you can start implementing right away. Whether you're just getting started or looking to take your ad campaigns to the next level, this episode is packed with insights to help your veterinary practice grow.

If you're creating hyper-specific content focused on direct selling and wondering why your posts aren't performing like they used to, you're probably skipping 2 crucial parts of your social media funnel. In today's episode, I'm breaking down something controversial: not every piece of content is meant to convert immediately! I know that sounds crazy when you're trying to grow your business, but hear me out. With how social media algorithms have evolved, the old strategy of making every post a direct pitch to your offer just isn't working anymore. I'm sharing my A-B-C framework for social funnels that's helped me build my seven-figure design agency. Most entrepreneurs are obsessing over the bottom of the funnel (conversion) while completely ignoring attraction and building content—which is why their audience isn't engaging and their sales calls aren't booking. You'll discover why your content needs to move people from audience member to follower to community member before they're ready to buy, how to create attraction content that's general enough to bring new people in but specific enough to stay relevant to your brand, and why the building phase is where most people confuse connection-building with direct selling. Plus, I'm revealing why I take most of my conversion content off social media entirely and into email sequences, private podcasts, and sales calls where people are actually ready to buy. In this episode, we're chatting about: • The A-B-C social funnel framework • Why direct selling content doesn't perform • The building phase mistake • Moving conversion off social media Connect with me: Website Join our email list!

Episode 172: Download Our FREE Podcast Guesting Guide - https://app.digitaltrailblazer.com/gsc-podcastMany online business owners struggle with the exhausting content grind - constantly creating posts, videos, and social media content to build an audience, only to see minimal results.

He reveals the power of guest appearances on podcasts and in Facebook groups to tap into pre-built, warm audiences who already trust you as an authority.

Today, he's a NASCAR driver and founder of Jayson Alexander Racing—running a full-fledged brand while juggling college, lacrosse, and military service.In this episode of Be A Marketer, Dave Charest, Director of Small Business Success at Constant Contact, talks with Jayson and his teammate, Shane DiMantova, who leads PR and social media for the team. Together, they've built a loyal fan base by treating their racing operation like a business, from segmenting email lists to planning content calendars around class schedules."Even when we're not at the track, we still try to build it up as much as possible," Jayson says. "I see a lot of drivers that, if they're at the track, great, they're posting. If they're not, they're just gone. We want to make you think we're racing every weekend—even if we're off for a month." Shane adds, "Without Constant Contact, we'd be chickens with our heads cut off.”They share how they use automation, segmentation, and SMS to grow fan engagement, boost merch sales, and pitch sponsors—even on off weeks.

In this brand spotlight, Alex Quin explores how Diplo, the world-renowned DJ and producer, created a unique blend of fitness and music with Diplo's Run Club. Starting in Miami after a spontaneous half marathon, the idea grew into a multi-city wellness experience where Diplo both runs a 5K and performs a post-race DJ set. This episode breaks down the branding strategy, community engagement, and logistical challenges behind this innovative concept.Episode Outline[00:00] Intro to the show and episode format[00:52] Diplo's background and the birth of Diplo's Run Club[02:12] 2024 San Francisco debut: 11,000 runners, 14,000 partygoers[03:07] Expansion to 8 cities in 2025–2026 season[03:40] Miami 2026 event preview at Bayfront Park[04:01] 3 brand pillars: authenticity, experience-driven marketing, purposeful scaling[05:22] Challenges: balancing celeb image with runner credibility & managing city-wide events[06:14] Wrap-up and final thoughtsWisdom NuggetsDiplo doesn't just slap his name on the brand—he runs every race. This personal involvement makes the brand feel real to both fans and serious runners.The Run Club is more than a 5K. It's an immersive event with music, recovery booths, and media-friendly moments—marketing built into the experience.Scaling wasn't rushed. Diplo partnered with wellness brands and event experts like PlusOne, Mascot Sports, and Wasserman to keep the mission clear while expanding.Balancing Diplo's celebrity persona with the expectations of authentic runners is tricky. Success lies in walking both lines without alienating either group.The blend of music, movement, and shared post-run celebration creates a lasting impression that fuels loyalty and word-of-mouth.Power Quotes:“Diplo's Run Club expanded to eight major cities in a single season.” – Alex Quin “Scaling with purpose means aligning with the right partners from the start.” – Alex QuinConnect With Diplo Run Club :Website: (https://diplosrunclub.com/)Connect With the Podcast Host Alex Quin:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/alexquin)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/mralexquin)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mralexquin)Website: (https://alexquin.com)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@mralexquin)Our CommunityInstagram:(https://www.instagram.com/hustleinspireshustle)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/HustleInspires)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/company/hustle-inspires-hustle)Website: (https://hustleinspireshustle.com)*This page may contain affiliate links or sponsored content.

Have you ever poured hours into a YouTube video that racked up views but barely moved the needle on sales?
