Janet's Adventures

Omnipresence. This is something I heard a few weeks ago. I should have pressed a little harder on that. I should have focused on one platform rather than trying to be omnipresent. The problem is that I wasn’t too sure what the right platform for me was. I was confused by too much choice. But that’s ok… mistake made, I’m moving on. But use that to learn from what I did. Spend time on one platform learning how to post, and invest in trying to understand that journey. Talk to me if you need help or need to reflect. #EntrepreneurialJourney50s #SocialMediaStruggles #FocusOverFOMO #OnlineCustomerDiscovery #MasteringSocialMedia

I’m a 50-something female entrepreneur trying to figure out how to make social media, & I struggle with trying to focus on one thing at a time. I sometimes suffer from serious FOMO. I’m trying to find my customers online. More and more they are online, surfing when their kids head to bed. Which platform should I focus on? It's tempting to chase multiple strategies or platforms, but I've learned that spreading myself too thin only leads to me being overwhelmed and diluting my efforts. I have to remind myself to prioritize mastering one aspect of social media at a time, whether it's creating engaging content, understanding algorithms, or writing good copy. NOTE to self, by honing in on one area and dedicating myself to mastering it, I can ensure that my efforts yield meaningful results and contribute to the growth and success of my business in the long run. #EntrepreneurialJourney50s #SocialMediaStruggles #FocusOverFOMO #OnlineCustomerDiscovery #MasteringSocialMedia

I listened to something today that made me realize that I have some work to do still. I’m a master at criticism.. And this thing I listened to made me realize that I am wasting my time focusing on others. What I should be doing is focusing on making myself better and conquering my pattern of not working on the things that make people awesome. Turning over a new leaf. #VictorNotVictim #RewritingMyStory #EmbracingGlory #BreakFreeFromFear #DigitalMarketingJourney

Cringe is my middle name! Getting started with posting is so hard. I started about a month after my training started, and my videos were so beginner. I looked awkward, sounded like cardboard, and I’m still working on sanding those edges and finding my story. I just kept learning, and kept posting. My awkwardness is going away, I’m getting less concerned about looking and sounding like everyone else and just celebrating who I am, where I’m at, and what I look like and sound like. It's a big barrier for everyone. I’m that middle aged, white haired lady who is a bit overweight but is having fun, and is confident in where she’s at - but I have a mission and I’m pointing at it every day. #BuildingMyBrand #SocialMediaJourney #AwkwardBeginnings #ConfidentContent #AuthenticityWins

Learning about really making money, and creating generational wealth starts with a change in mindset. I read Rich Dad, Poor Dad during my digital marketing training and my mindset has started to change. Just opened my HISA with Simplii, where they have a 6% rate of return for 6 months. So I’m stacking it. On $1000.00 I can make $60 a month. If I have a million in there I can make $60,000 a month. Makes sense right?HISAs are often used by individuals and businesses to save money while earning a competitive rate of return on their deposits. These accounts typically offer features such as easy access to funds, no or low fees, and sometimes promotional interest rates to attract customers. Look around in your community to find a competitive offer. Happy Wealth Building my friends! #smallbusiness #wealthymindset #savingschallenge

Google prefers content that is a bit longer, typically between 1500 to 2000 words. And as a result this impacts social media strategies. The social media platforms have character limits, but reusing longer-form content through reuse and storytelling can enhance engagement and improve social rankings. By sharing snippets of longer content on social media and crafting authentic and engaging narratives, businesses can drive traffic to their websites, establish authority, and connect with their audience. In essence, being brief is important on social media, using longer content carefully can amplify online visibility and engagement.

I’m doing all kinds of research on how to make content that drives traffic. And I’m unearthing these little gems that I can share with you. So let’s talk about social media polls and questions! Imagine you're scrolling through your favorite social media app, minding your own business, when suddenly, you stumble upon a poll that asks, "Nachos or Pizza for dinner?" Suddenly, you're not just a passive scroller – you're an active participant in the great pizza vs. nachos debate! So, why do business owners love using polls and questions on social media? Well, it's like throwing a party and inviting everyone to join in on the conversation. Instead of just talking at your customers, you're inviting them to share their thoughts, opinions, and maybe even a laugh or two. It's like turning your social media feed into a digital hangout where everyone's invited. And when you think about the algorithm, engagement is the one THING that you want! When you ask a question or post a poll, you're not just shouting into the void; you're sparking conversations and creating connections. Suddenly, your customers aren't just followers – they're friends, collaborators, and maybe even your biggest fans. It's like turning your business into the life of the online party! Polls and questions aren't just fun and games – they're also invaluable tools for understanding your customers better. By asking the right questions, you can get insights into their preferences, interests, and pain points. So when you’re developing content for your social media feed, don't forget to sprinkle in some polls and questions. Whether you're asking about their favorite flavor of ice cream or their biggest pet peeve, give your customers a chance to join the conversation. Who knows? You might just turn your followers into lifelong fans – one question at a time. Let the polling party begin! 🎉

As a 52-year-old small business owner with 12 years of experience under my belt and over 20 years experience in corporate America, I understand the importance of staying relevant and adapting to technology. It's a constantly changing landscape, just like my blood pressure!In corporate America we were told that we had to invest at least 40 hours per year on professional development. But as small business owners we get to choose how much time we invest in learning and balance that with running our businesses. Here are three reasons why continuous education is vital for small business owners like us:Remaining Competitive in a Digital WorldIt's essential for small business owners to stay current in the digital sphere. Technology changes fast, and customers are always found in different places with each generation. By understanding these spaces we can stay competitive and effectively reach our target customer in today's digital age.Getting the Most Out of EVERYTHINGI have to manage my time, my staff’s time and make decisions about how to best benefit my business. By investing in digital marketing education, and experimenting with these spaces, I can make informed decisions about what I do, and what my staff can do in order to decide which strategies are most likely to yield results. This ensures that my marketing efforts are strong and deliver a solid ROI, ultimately contributing to the success and growth of my business. Embracing Innovation and GrowthTo maintain a growth mindset, I have to rethink how I feel about new technology that will impact my business. Embracing innovation is essential for long-term success - and I have to continuously remind myself of this. Digital marketing presents numerous opportunities for innovation and growth, from leveraging emerging technologies like AI to exploring new marketing channels like TikTok, Pinterest and so on. It is so easy to be worried and suspicious of new things. But it takes work to think about new things in a positive

Driving home today, an 18 wheeler had their 4 ways on for at least 2 kilometers! Crazy dangerous. Driving in chronic ‘I’m freaking out’ mode or my “vehicle-is-broken-and-I’m-driving-on-a-busy-HWY” mode with your 4-ways on. It led me to think about how business owners drive their businesses in chronic seat-of-your-pants mode. And they don’t set aside time to do professional development to keep their skills current and plan for future enrichment. I learned when working in a large corporation that you MUST MUST make a long term education plan so you’re living, growing and developing with purpose.

Images have the ability to convey complex messages in an instant, making them invaluable assets for driving engagement and conversions.

I’ve been learning about creating a digital course that will allow me to help people learn via the e-learning space. One thing the course instructor asks is ‘What is your SUPERPOWER?” How many of us know what our super power is? What is the thing or set of things that you do really really well?I’ve been racking my brain, and have been swirling in my thoughts and mind about what it is that I do really really really well. Here’s my list: 1. I’ve been running a successful business for the past 12 years (we got through COVID!), 2. I’m really good with building a solid team that runs automatically without me needing to be there, 3. I’m great at working with people and teaching them how to be positive and joyful on their journeys, 4. I am a creative thinker, 5. I am a skilled illustrator and designer, 6. I know about and have practiced user experience design, 7. I love MATH, 8. I LOVE books, literature and learning 9. I’m crafty, 10. I like to knit, 11. I love cooking (although I do burn things a lot). I could go on… So how do I narrow it down?My husband says I also have the superpower to talk and put him to sleep. Ha. I’m not sure what my SUPERPOWER is yet, but I’m going to continue to think about it. I’m not quite ready to create a digital course, but one day I will be and Oh the Places I will Go… This $7 course has charted a path of personal and business growth for me. When I look back on this journey in a year (like so many others) - I know without a doubt that I will be so thankful that I suspended my disbelief and took a chance. I might not be using it exactly the way it's intended, but then again, maybe I am?! My vision is to have multiple streams of income that will require a bit of input, but will mostly be self running.

One of the things I LOVE about owning my own business is not having to worry about taking a day off to spend with my family. And not having to feel like I was doing something wrong. I learned a while back that work-life balance is up to me, and is about my ability to create space for that balance. Nothing will ever replace those moments with your loved ones or doing things besides working. * To start the same way I did, give me a follow and comment “learn” and I’ll send you a link to a free video that will get you started on taking the $7 course that has gotten me started learning how to make attention grabbing content!! #DigitalMarketing #EntrepreneurLife #OnlineBusiness #EmailMarketingTips #GrowWithEmails DISCLAIMER: This video is for educational purposes only, and is not an income guarantee or a get rich quick scheme.

Let's talk about the magic of urgent email subject lines and how they can turn your inbox into a hotbed of activity. Picture this: you're scrolling through your emails, & you spot a subject line screaming "Last Chance!" or "Hurry, Limited Time Offer!" It's like digital adrenaline. Why do urgent subject lines work so effectively? It's all about tapping into that primal fear of missing out – aka FOMO. Think about it: when you see an urgent subject line in your inbox, your brain goes into high alert mode. What if this email contains crucial information, a limited-time offer, or insider secrets you'll never get again? Suddenly, hitting that open button becomes as urgent as finding out who dies in the season finale of your favorite show (no spoilers, please!). It's not just about getting people to open your email; it's about getting them to read it. Studies show that emails with urgent subject lines have a 22% higher open rate. That's like turning on a neon sign that says "Pay Attention!" in a sea of digital noise. Because let's face it, in a world where our attention is constantly pulled in a million directions, anything that cuts through the clutter is worth its weight in gold. So, the next time you're crafting that perfect email subject line, remember the power of urgency. Whether you're offering a limited-time discount, announcing a deadline, or teasing exclusive content, give your readers a reason to stop, drop, and click. Because in the battle for inbox supremacy, a little urgency can go a long way toward making sure your email doesn't get lost in the shuffle. #DigitalMarketing #EntrepreneurLife #OnlineBusiness #EmailMarketingTips #GrowWithEmails 📚 To start the same way I did, give me a follow and comment "learn" and I'll send you a link to a free video that will get you started on taking the $7 course that has gotten me started learning how to make attention grabbing content!!
