**Nobody is coming to save you from the life you keep choosing.**
You already know what needs to change. Youโre just hoping motivation, a new system, or the right person shows up and does the hard part for you. They wonโt.
The people who actually change their lives stop waiting for permission and start treating their standards like non-negotiables instead of suggestions.
What if there was a system what enables lifetime free API from popular AI models. You don't have to pay for them ever. What do you think? Is it possible?
#AI#AIModels#ClaudeAI#API#Groq
Lots of โAi tracking and visibility trackersโ
At @brightonseo that are just absurdly overpriced.
I built one of those in a weekend by myself without knowing how to code thatโs every bit as good and a fraction of the price.
And the other difference is I actually know how Ai works and am not just trying to capitalize on a trend.
Donโt let these companies take advantage of you.
Part #3 - Marketing Strategies To Grow ANY Business
No one is ever satisfied with the amount of money they make or the size of their business.
I bet Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Bill Gates think they haven't grown enough.
I can't help them with how to grow their businesses, but I can help you.
Here are the top marketing strategies that have worked for me.
Personal Branding - I actually refer to this as The Celebrity Method.
You create so much content on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and so on that doesn't ask for anything.
It just shows your expertise and gives value to the point that people see you as a celebrity in your field and actually WANT to buy stuff from you.
This is the most valuable asset you can ever create.
You should start doing this before anyone knows who you are and stay consistent with it throughout your career.
You are literally watching me practice what I preach in this post.
Communities - This is an extension of your personal brand.
Create communities where your followers and people that have engaged with your brand communicate directly with you and each other.
This will create a bond with one another and make them fiercely loyal to you and your brand.
They will not only buy from you but will never consider buying from anyone else.
They will go out and be your sales force for free.
Paid Advertising - In the next post, I will go in-depth on a paid advertising strategy that is killing it for me.
For now, think of paid advertising as a way to turbocharge your personal branding efforts.
Run advertisements to people that are similar to the people that are already engaging with you and in your community.
This will allow you to get them into your brand, community, and email list.
Email Marketing - Having an email list is the ultimate weapon.
You can make more money and reach more people in an instant with an email list than any other method.
Build a list of people that are your ideal avatar.
Get the email address of people from your community and brand.
Send them value over and over again.
When you have something to sell, sell it to them.
You can make an avalanche of money in an instant.
You can also use it to generate a network effect by setting up a referral program.
Referral Programs - Everyone knows someone.
People tend to know others with similar interests and needs as themselves.
That means they not only know your ideal customer, but they also have a bond with them that you donโt.
If you use a referral program, you can incentivize them to bring in their friends and others they know.
For example, if you have an SEO business, you can offer someone 3 free months of SEO if they bring in 2 referrals that sign up and stay for 2 months.
This creates a network effect when everyone does this for you.
If you want them to push it even further, you can offer an affiliate program.
Affiliates - An affiliate program is where you offer a percentage of a sale as a commission to someone in exchange for them selling your product or service.
Unlike a referral program, they are getting financial compensation.
They are incentivized to not only sell your product to people they know but to anyone and everyone they can think of.
Because they know you, your product, and your brand AND are getting financial compensation, they can grow your customer base at a scale that you never could.
They are, in effect, becoming a contract sales force to complement your in-house sales force.
Hiring A Sales Force - In the early stages of your business, you will be doing most of the sales yourself.
You should.
It teaches you what works and what doesnโt.
Eventually, you want to grow, and you are limited by the amount of time you have.
The only way to get more time is to involve more people doing the same thing you do (and in many cases, doing it better).
Hiring and training salespeople is vital if you want the business to grow beyond you.
A decent salesperson will be 75% as good at selling your business as you are.
A vicious closer will be 200%โ500% as good as you are.
The more people you get doing sales, the more you create an infinite growth flywheel that makes your business unstoppable.
Search Engine Optimization - Iโve mentioned a lot of ways you can reach other people, but you also want people to reach you.
That means search engine optimization.
Optimizing your brand for search engines like Google and YouTube gives people a chance to find what you do.
Optimizing for AI chats like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini ensures you are found in the next evolution of search.
The fact that they are already looking for you means they already have interest and intent.
It should be even easier to convert them on what you do.
Even if they only find your informational content in the initial touch, it gives you a great opportunity to reach them through retargeting and remarketing.
Retargeting - Sometimes, you have to ask someone on a date several times before they will go out with you.
When it comes to traffic, the way to ask them out a second time is retargeting.
This is achieved by having a piece of code on your website that allows you to send paid ads to people that have taken specific actions or viewed specific content.
You can combine your personal branding efforts and SEO with retargeting to reach people over and over again.
You can even use retargeting to do what I call omnipresence marketing.
Omnipresence Marketing - This is an advanced form of retargeting.
You run ads to people that have viewed your website and thank them for viewing your website.
You run ads to people who have bought from you and thank them for buying from you.
You run ads to people that interacted with your pages and channels and thank them for interacting.
You find people with an upcoming birthday and wish them a happy birthday.
You do this on EVERY platform so they will see you everywhere they go ALL THE TIME.
I do this on every platform you can think of.
Facebook.
Instagram.
YouTube.
Google.
Bing.
Reddit.
TikTok.
Quora.
Snapchat.
LinkedIn.
Twitter.
Pinterest.
And so on.
They literally see your face and brand everywhere they go.
They never ever forget you.
When it comes time to buy whatever it is you sell, you are the only person they think of.
Thereโs a very good chance that if you have read this far, you have seenโor will now seeโa retargeting ad of my face.
In my opinion, this is the final boss of marketing strategies.
Once you unlock it, your business will grow forever.
