You hear me talk about it all the time. An excellent marketing strategy ensures that you target the right audience. Period. Not only does it allow you to build your brand organically, but it also creates a community of loyal customers. Webinars got a bad rap at one time; it was serious overkill. BUT, they are not to be discarded just yet. So let me ask you, when planning your marketing strategy did you include webinars? If not, you need to. Here’s why. With COVID restrictions, remote working conditions, and a need to stay informed, webinars’ popularity grew over the…

When was the last time you attended an in-person seminar or event? I’m going to take a wild guess and say it was sometime before March 2020! Personally, I don’t much miss them because a much more powerful, targeted, and accessible tool has taken their place. A successful webinar! For years, remote seminars and events were a staple in the business world. The problem was that they were expensive and somewhat inconvenient affairs. Though potentially informative to certain people, they usually only attracted limited audiences. Using real-time video software like Zoom or my favorite Demio, small business owners and entrepreneurs can…

Have you ever attended a live webinar? I’m guessing you have, they are everywhere! Personally, I’m a huge fan! While I never really enjoyed traveling to attend in-person seminars because of expensive travel, hotels, and food, webinars are a completely different story. All you need to pay for a webinar is the cost of “entry.” You can safely stay comfy at home and learn everything you’d get from an in-person seminar for a fraction of the cost and time investment. If you’re a small business owner, I’m sure that the idea of putting on your own webinar has occurred to…

Do you ever worry that no one will show up at your webinar? Don’t worry; it’s a super common fear. Performers, speakers, politicians, and others who do public speaking always worry that, after weeks of preparation, that there will be no one in their audience. It’s the same for small business owners who decide to put together their very first webinar. But that doesn’t need to happen. With adequate webinar launch planning, a digital marketing strategy that includes content marketing, email marketing, and social media marketing and advertising, you can fill your webinars with prospective clients, just waiting to be…

Have you ever given a webinar? For some small business owners, the idea of presenting a webinar is almost crazy. It’s simply not in their frame of reference as far as marketing strategies go. But I’m here to tell you that webinars are one of the most effective marketing techniques for positioning yourself as an expert online! The trick is that webinars are a ton of work, especially if you’ve never created one before. If that’s the case, a virtual assistant can be worth their weight in gold, especially if they have experience working on a ton of webinars in…

Everyone needs a helping hand, now and then. A webinar launch is no different. No matter what business you work in, you can’t do everything yourself. Sometimes, you need to bring in specialists who have experience, skills, and knowledge you don’t currently possess. Many small business owners might want to hire an accountant/bookkeeper to take care of their finances and taxes, so they don’t need to deal with all of those numbers. If you can’t answer the phone all day, perhaps hiring a receptionist could be a good idea. And if you don’t have time to write content for your…

Recently, I’ve been creating a lot of different types of content that allow me to get closer to my audience. I don’t just want you to read my words, but also hear my voice. I believe that this will create a stronger connection with you! (Is it working?) To get started, I’ve obviously picked podcasting. It’s a fantastic way to get your name and content out there, but it’s also entirely audio, with no visuals. Excellent if your audience is going out for a walk or running errands, but less so if you need to communicate complex ideas that require…

As a digital marketer, I have to admit that I’m a little surprised at how many people don’t know what a podcast is. Especially given their rapidly increasing visibility. The word “podcast” is a combination of the words “broadcast” and “iPod.” Over the last decade, podcasts have become one of the most popular forms of spoken-audio entertainment. Replacing radio as the background noise during our morning commutes. There are countless podcasts out there in hundreds of different genres, including true crime, technology, fiction, comedy, and, of course, marketing. You can check out some of my favorite productivity podcasts here! So,…
