Free marketing advice: Screenshot your best 1-star review & post it with what you fixed because of it
People trust brands that admit flaws way faster than brands that only post 5-star reviews
@matt__makes Oh thanks a lot man.
I will be starting to market more on Reddit, will definitely reach out to you.
And if you need any help with copy, do ping me. Would love to.
@ItsKieranDrew@AndrewWriteCopy You are right that "insights" doesn't evoke any emotion.
But how about swapping it for "secrets" (tricks IMO sounds a bit sketchy).
"9 welcome sequence secrets to take your email funnel from deadweight to deadly"

One reason is because it's so taste-centric. you either have it or don't.
Problems comes when clients who don't have "it", take decisions and overrule those who have "it"
@RonnyBruknapp Hahaha, you have to man. Einstein had this quote about there being a very thin line between insanity and genius.
Same is true for entrepreneurs too.
Most businesses lose 90% of their best reviews because of one awkward moment:
Asking.
A customer says:
"That was amazing!"
"I loved it!"
"I'll definitely recommend you."
And then...
Nothing.
Because asking them to write that online feels weird.
But there's a better way.
Don't ask for a review.
Make a small, specific request:
"Hey, if you liked your experience, would it be possible to leave us a Google review? A lot of our customers find us there, so it would really help."
Small change.
More reviews.
More trust.
More customers.
I broke down the exact method here 👇

Adding a few more of mine to that list:
- Waiting for the "perfect" logo
- Building for competitors instead of customers
- Networking events instead of just talking to 10 users
- Rewriting the same landing page copy for the 8th time
- Over researching instead of just asking someone who'd buy
In Skyfall, Q mocks James Bond by saying "I do more work sitting in my pajamas. You are needed because every once in a while, a trigger has to be pulled"
James quips "Or not pulled. And its difficult to know which is which in your pajamas."
I feel all this is much like that.
Sure, you have all the quantity in the world, but where's the taste?
When Claude spits 100 headlines, which one would you go with?
The "how" part is what most struggle with though.
IMO, it can be this:
- Pick one thing to be known for. Just one.
- Post about that one thing daily for 90 days before you touch a new topic
- Reply to bigger accounts in that niche, learn from them
- Then say the same insight in 10 different ways instead of finding 10 different insights
But IMO, what remains evergreen is:
- Answering questions people are already typing into Google (maybe with content)
- Build an audience you own (email, not an algorithm feed)
- Say the thing your competitor won't say out loud
- Show up consistently, since every channel eventually rewards the person who never left
I am putting the same into practise too.🤞

@chesscom Man, this post would have travelled even more had they not posted this like an era after the trend came and went.

Hey @X algorithm 👋
I'm looking to connect with people obsessed with better marketing.
If you're into:
• Branding 🧠
• Copywriting ✍️
• Growth hacks 📈
• Social media strategy 📱
• Consumer psychology 👀
• Email marketing 📩
• Viral campaigns 🚀
• Creative advertising 💡
• AI for marketers 🤖
• Building audiences 🌎
Drop a follow or say hi.
Let's study what makes people click, buy, and remember brands.
I'd say, just pick one channel & go loud there before touching a second one.
For that
- Find where your exact user already hangs out
- Post daily for 30 days before judging if it's working
- Copy what's already working in that channel, then add your own angle
- Repeat the same core message in 5 different formats instead of 5 different messages once each
It's just you doing the boring channel work nobody wants to keep doing.
