    @Jonathan Brake Yep, that's a great one! You might also add the outcome answering the question "why do I need my brand's story told". ex: I'm looking for 5 businesses that want to get their brand's story told in the next 30 days so they can make a bigger impact in their community and their pipeline. Text STORY if you're ready. Then simply call them and launch into a consultative discovery call at that point. You're just helping them commit to making a decision.

Your business puts off a personality - that's your BRAND. Either accidentally or intentionally, when people think of your business, products, or services they get a feeling about them. For example, when you think about Starbucks vs. Black Rifle Coffee Company, you get a different feeling right? Take a look at the graphic below, sit with your team, and start having a conversation about what your brand represents NOW. Then take a step back and answer the questions. How do you WANT to be perceived? Who does your dream customer need you to be? Really think about that. Once you decide, then what do you need to change? Does your logo represent that new personality? Your colors? Your website? How do you answer the phone? It goes deep. 👉 I want you to answer the poll right now, to answer with your GUT instinct. Who do you think your dream customers need you to be for them right now? (You can read more about those archetypes here: https://iconicfox.com.au/brand-archetypes/) I have limited quiz options so I'll group similar ones together...

St. Patrick's Day can be a great opportunity for small businesses to attract new customers and boost sales. Here are some promotion ideas that can work well for small businesses: 1. Social media contest: Run a St. Patrick's Day-themed social media contest where customers can enter to win a prize by sharing a photo, video, or story related to the holiday. Make sure to use relevant hashtags like #StPatricksDay and #Contest to help promote the contest. 2. Green-themed discount: Offer a discount or special promotion on St. Patrick's Day that is tied to the color green. For example, you could offer a 17% discount (in honor of March 17th) on any green-colored products or services you offer. 3. Irish-inspired products: Create special Irish-inspired products or services for St. Patrick's Day. For example, a bakery could create special green-colored cupcakes or a coffee shop could offer Irish-themed drinks like a "Shamrock Latte". 4. Free St. Patrick's Day-themed item: Offer a free St. Patrick's Day-themed item like a sticker or pin with any purchase made on the holiday. This is a great way to incentivize customers to visit your store or website. 5. Charity promotion: Partner with a local charity and donate a portion of your sales on St. Patrick's Day to the charity. This is a great way to give back to the community while also promoting your business. 6. St. Patrick's Day event: Host a St. Patrick's Day event like a parade, live music, or Irish dancing. This can be a great way to attract new customers and create a festive atmosphere for your business. Remember to promote your St. Patrick's Day promotion through your website, social media, and email marketing, and to keep your promotion relevant to your target audience and your business. With a little creativity, you can create a memorable St. Patrick's Day promotion that helps you stand out and attract new customers to your small business.

📸Picture this: You're a business owner trying to sell your product or service. You've done your research, you've paid for amazing ads, your ad is getting leads in, you created a kicka** nurturing sequence that those leads are going through….. But no one has called you, no one has booked a meeting with you, and no one has reached out. Have you been there?? What's going on??? Well, to be completely honest, it's possible that you've fallen into the trap of thinking that nurturing your leads is the same as selling to them. While it is true that nurturing is an important part of the sales process, it's not a replacement for it. ❗❗Let me repeat that real quick: nurturing your leads…. Does NOT replace your sales process❗❗ Okay, now that we’re on the same page, let's break it down. - Nurturing is all about building a relationship with your potential customers. It's about educating them, providing them with helpful resources, and staying top-of-mind until they're ready to make a buying decision. - Sales, on the other hand, is about closing the deal. It's about identifying your customer's needs, demonstrating how your product or service can meet those needs, and persuading them to take action. ❓So why do people sometimes confuse the two❓ Well, for one thing, nurturing can feel more comfortable than selling. It's a softer approach that doesn't involve as much pressure or rejection. Plus, when you're nurturing, you're not necessarily asking for anything in return. But here's the thing: if you're only nurturing your leads and never actually selling to them, you're not doing your job as a salesperson. Your goal isn't just to have a lot of warm and fuzzy conversations with potential customers - it's to close deals and generate revenue for your company❗ So, how do you strike the right balance between nurturing and selling❓ Here are a few tips: 1️⃣ Be strategic about your nurturing efforts by consistently providing value to your potential customers through a variety of touch points. Remember, it takes an average of 21 touch points for someone to make a purchase decision, so don't be afraid to get creative with how you engage with your audience. From ads and social media posts, to emails, texts, and even physical presence at events, there are many ways to stay top-of-mind. But it's important to be practical about your efforts and ensure that each touch point is providing value to your audience.

I originally recorded this question for Brad, however, after reflecting on it for a moment I thought this might be a good discussion piece for the group. Definity want to hear Brad and the rest if the Genie Rocket team's thoughts, but I'm betting there are some BAM community members that have some good insight on this as well. Please take 3 minutes to watch the video and share your thoughts. Thank you in advance! https://www.loom.com/share/7802251d0265454380deb3298a3fc7cb

    Great question and love the video! ---------> When to Ask? Ask before they are breaking up with you, preferably at the beginning of the relationship. This is where they are at an all-time high with your product or service, and you want to capitalize on that momentum. For example, if I just joined ROCKBOX and committed my time and money to transform myself, I'd be primed and ready to invite others and share my excitement. (that's more for asking for referrals) Asking for a review - after the 1st or second class. ---------> How to Ask? Make it easy, make it fun. ---------> When to Ask? For ROCKBOX I would say: "Did you enjoy your first workouts with us? Do us a quick favor and use this link and write us a review and tell us about your experience and enter to win a cool prize"

    @Chris Arangio Great insight here Chris, love that approach

In a world where we're bombarded with advertisements and marketing messages at every turn, it can be refreshing to see a brand take a different approach. That's where anti-marketing comes in. Anti-marketing is a marketing strategy that involves intentionally going against the grain of traditional marketing tactics in order to set your brand apart and connect with customers on a deeper level. One of the key principles of anti-marketing is authenticity. This can involve sharing behind-the-scenes glimpses of your business or even being honest about the limitations of your product or service. Another principle is focusing on the customer's experience. Anti-marketing strategies focus on creating a memorable and enjoyable experience for the customer. An example of an anti-marketing strategy is the "anti-ad" campaign launched by Patagonia. Rather than promoting their products with flashy ads, Patagonia focused on telling the story of their commitment to environmental sustainability and social responsibility. By highlighting their values and mission, Patagonia was able to connect with customers on a deeper level and build a loyal following. By focusing on authenticity, customer experience, and a unique approach to marketing, anti-marketing can help your business stand out in a crowded marketplace and build a loyal following.

    Boom! Go get this free goodie! Highly valuable thanks Madison!

Another effective email nurturing strategy is called "The Drip Campaign". The idea behind The Drip Campaign is to send a series of automated emails over time, with each email building upon the previous one to slowly educate and engage your audience. The first step in setting up a successful Drip Campaign is to segment your email list based on your target audience's needs, behaviors, and interests. This allows you to create a customized and relevant experience for each segment, increasing the chances of conversions. Next, you'll want to create a series of emails that are carefully crafted to address each segment's specific pain points and needs. For example, your first email could be an introduction to your brand, followed by an email that highlights the benefits of your product, and then a final email that provides a compelling offer. One of the key advantages of The Drip Campaign is that it allows you to build relationships with your audience over time, instead of trying to close the sale in one fell swoop. By providing valuable information, addressing their needs, and demonstrating the value of your product, you can establish trust and position yourself as a thought leader in your industry. To make The Drip Campaign even more effective, consider using tools like A/B testing, lead scoring, and dynamic content to optimize your emails and improve your results. In conclusion, The Drip Campaign is a highly effective email nurturing strategy that can help you educate, engage, and convert your target audience. By segmenting your email list, crafting relevant and valuable content, and leveraging technology, you can build strong relationships and achieve your sales and marketing goals. Have you given this method a try? What kind of results have you had? Let us know down below!

    Great post! Remember story trumps logic. Lead with a problem/solution story that relates to your product or service to start building the bridge of trust. I recommend your first email being focused on this framework. Here’s a great example of an email I got last night after I ordered a big pack of high performance electrolyte mixes. Notice how it focuses on STORY and PRODUCT/SOLUTION: —————- Welcome to our Salty Family! Today, I invite you to join us on our mission to restore health through hydration. So let’s spread the salt, share some science, and set positive health outcomes in motion in your own life and in the lives of those around you. We’re committed to supporting those outcomes in the best way we know how—with salt, science, and heart. Watch our story here. Being a biochemist, athlete, and nutrition-tinkerer, I have always strived to improve my health and performance. However, 20 years ago I was battling crippling GI issues. I dug into the scientific literature and ultimately adopted a low-carb, ketogenic lifestyle. This change improved my overall health dramatically, but I still couldn’t get to the next level in my real passion, jiu-jitsu. For years, I tinkered with my carb ratios and found minor improvements, but no matter how clean I ate or how hard I worked out, I still felt like something was holding me back. When I brought this up to my former coaches, they answered immediately: I needed more electrolytes, specifically sodium. I knew why getting more salt was important on a low-carb diet—the scientific literature is pretty clear. Like many, however, I grossly underestimated just how much sodium I actually needed. When I finally got my electrolytes dialed up and dialed in, I felt the benefits immediately. I had more energy during jiu-jitsu, slept better, and noticed that I could think and focus more clearly. I realized that I need to pay as much attention to electrolytes as I do to food. The only problem? There weren’t any products available to meet my needs. Most electrolyte products were glorified sugar water, woefully lacking in electrolytes. And I quickly grew tired of meticulously prepping messy electrolyte homebrews. So we put our heads together and created LMNT, the best electrolyte drink mix ever. That means lots of salt, zero sugar, and easy grab-and-go packaging.

Email marketing is a crucial aspect of digital marketing and it can be challenging to navigate the various strategies available. Two important email strategies that businesses often use are nurturing emails and follow-up sequences. While both strategies are used to engage with customers and drive results, they have different goals and should be used differently. Nurturing emails are designed to build relationships and educate your audience. They aim to provide valuable information to your subscribers and keep them engaged with your brand. Nurturing emails can include things like educational content, helpful tips, or industry insights. These emails are meant to be informative and build trust with your audience over time. On the other hand, follow-up sequences are focused on closing the deal. They are typically used after a potential customer has taken some sort of action, such as filling out a form on your website or making an initial purchase. Follow-up sequences can include things like promotional offers, reminders to complete an action, or calls to action. The goal of these emails is to move the customer towards a conversion, whether that be making a purchase, signing up for a service, or taking some other desired action. In conclusion, both nurturing emails and follow-up sequences play important roles in an effective email marketing strategy. Nurturing emails help build relationships and educate your audience, while follow-up sequences focus on driving conversions. By using both strategies together, businesses can maximize their results and take their email marketing game to the next level.

    You have to be close to close. Not every deal can be done from an email with a buy now button. Pick up the phone!

😱HASHTAGS MEAN NOTHING😱 Okay Okay let's take a deep breath and let me break this down for you. When hashtags first became a social media tool in 2007, the goal was to make it easy to group messaging together. It was an incredible way to find people who were also interested in the same topics as you! When I first started using Instagram in 2012, I would share my photography and I gained quite a decent following because of my use of hashtags. In just a few months I had met/created an entire online community of models and photographers near me. It was a very fun and super crazy because we all had zero relation to each other and strictly met through instagram. Explaining to my mom that I wanted to go meet up with people from the internet was not the easiest feat. hahaha but moral of the story, hashtags worked! Now let's remember, that was 2012, it's now 2023 so you know things have changed. Since then billions if not trillions of hashtags have been used all over the world as a way to put "eyes" on peoples art, posts, opinions, etc. Because hashtags have been going on for so long, hashtags have become extremely oversaturated, meaning the engagement has gone down significantly. In 2012 i could tag #photography and #dallastexas and be directly pushed out to people who like photography in Dallas, but if I tried to use the same hashtags today I would get pushed into the pool of billions of other accounts trying to do the same thing and I would stay in the exact same place i'm at. For Example: #love has been used approximately 1.835 BILLION times, you're post that says #love isn't getting seen by anyone. I can promise you that. The algorithm isn't completely based around the use of hashtags anymore, now it looks at video length, audio/sounds, filters, hashtags, your current followers, the people you follow, the videos you've liked recently, and every tiny thing in between. So instead of trying to find hashtags that are going to compliment exactly what you are sharing, plus the audio, plus the video length, plus your current audience, etc etc etc. Just POST.

    Great post Madison! I think we all got on the hashtag train and I personally haven't seen a compelling reason to stop and think about the relevancy of them today, instead of just leaning on what was popular in 2012...

If you've ever heard a motivational speaker say this phrase "no one is coming to save you"... that does not mean that you're all alone on an island by yourself, and be only self-reliant. That's a common thought when we hear this phrase, but is commonly misinterpreted. The truth is most people don't ever see or know when you're struggling. So what do we do when we have this feeling of isolation and struggle? You raise a flag, you admit you need help, you seek coaching or you seek counsel. The key here is, DON'T BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR HELP. The truth is, most people don't know your actual thoughts, dreams, goals, and desires. As entrepreneurs, we tend to shoulder the burden all by ourselves and go through the struggle alone. Can you relate? I've certainly had my fair share of lonely burden carrying and still struggle with raising my hand for help. Guilty. If you've reached the top, and you're lonely at the top.. then you did it wrong. You don't have to do it alone. This is one of the core reasons we created a community surrounding the sales and marketing tool of Genie Rocket with www.DIYMarketing.Academy so we could inspire, encourage and support. Instead of us selling world-class software and letting people figure it out on their own, we committed to showing up every week for coaching and community to help people get real results and real help. (and if you haven't signed up you should, you'll thank me later) Life is too short and connections are too valuable to try to muscle through it all by yourself, just to end up alone and fatigued. As a believer, I know God didn't intend us to be on a solo race to finish as broken and lonely people. I want to encourage you today to do the hard work for yourself, by asking for help in an area of your life that you are shouldering all by yourself. Will it be hard? Yes. Will it be uncomfortable? Yes. Will your brain fight against you every step of the way? Yes. That means it's the right thing to do. Do it.

    I'll go first here - I struggle with finishing projects. I'm a great visionary and starter, but I SUCK at getting things to the finish line by myself...

    @Madison Fox YESS

When it comes down to it, there are only 5 core KPI’s (Key Performance Indicators) for your business. Here’s the real brain twister… only ONE of these FIVE KPI’s is your real bottleneck that you need to focus on for right now, that will free up the rest. Have you ever heard the term when EVERYTHING is important, then NOTHING is important? Most of the time, it’s easy for us to throw up our hands and say “all of these areas are important!” so guess what gets attention? You got it… NONE of them. I’m going to break down each of these 5 concepts in greater detail in the comments section later, but for right now, I want you to taken an action! CLICK THE OPTION that YOU feel like is your ONE CURRENT STICKING POINT for your business! (PS: I learned this from an amazing mastermind I attended, and the image attached are my original fun iPad notes)
