Ep. 248

5 Tips on incorporating God, values and purpose in business with Jess Lopes

1. Businesses versus brands – they are two different things. They are both essential but by building a solid brand you’re building equity in your business. How are we communicating, how are we sharing, and how do they perceive my brand.

2. Your values are not a marketing strategy. Values are who you are, and what you believe. Values and purpose come from the inside out and are authentic to you and your heart.

3. Less is more. Keep your marketing simple and effective. Be straightforward with how we can help our customers.

4. Progress over perfection. Test and learn all the way through your marketing. Everything you do is a learning exercise, go out there and try so you can understand. Don’t overthink and keep learning.

5. Social Media will not replace relationships. SM is supported. The most important is the relationships you’re building. Let it go. Find what works for you and your business through other medians.

  • 250. 250 5 Tips to Help Your Business Thrive on Social Media with Jess Partridge

    59:17||Ep. 250
    If you listen to our podcast and not driving, take a pic of where you’re listening to us and give us a tag on Instagram and FB Just over one week til the conference and We have extended our ticket registrations for a while longer.5 Tips to help your business thrive on social media1. Making your account searchable – think about how your audience would search for you. How do you present when they find you and do you answer their questions? Does your bio explain what you do? Make use of your name and use them as keywords not just your business name. Make sure you update even the ALT info on each pic.2. Humanizing your brand. Get in front of the camera and share your story. Searching more behind the scenes. Film something about what you’re doing, how you got here and your story. Be repetitive – don’t be afraid of sharing the same things repeatedly. Be consistent.3. Connect and collaborate – find people who share the same audience as you and see how you can work together and share the load of creating reels, and videos and have fun with it. Cross-pollinate your audiences. Also, go with someone with someone who has a similar account following you.4. Nurturing your audience – Once you’ve got them there, how are you connecting with them? Authentic, day-in-the-life vlogs, sharing with them what you get up to. People are interested in what you do, this is how much love goes into what you buy. Put a purpose behind your post – and be mindful of what you sell. Give people direction on how to buy. Who are your people? Map out what they like, where they hang out, what they eat, what’s their family life like, and if they have puppies. With video content, don’t forget about static images or carousels, carousels are a big winner still. They’re searchable, and Instagram uses the different images. From an ad’s perspective, it’s the statistics image people still love and can digest easily.5. Think about paid ads – You’re able to target more of your actual audience. Are all the above set up so that when you do drive people to your website everything is set up and ready to nurture. This is about adding fuel to your already lit fire as you can scale.
