𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐊𝐄𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐌𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐀𝐕𝐎𝐈𝐃😥

The world of online marketing is very overwhelming, especially for those business owners in Nigeria that have only focused on traditional form of marketing, even till this point when there have been a huge revolution in the world of internet.

It can be a lot of information to absorb and naturally, mistakes are going to be made when doing online marketing.

If you haven't liked my page please do that NOW!.

Many online marketers complaint to me about thier inability to sell and make good profits online and then they possibly give up after 3 months of hard trying and hitting a big black wall.

Making mistakes online is inevitable,but it's very important that you learn from your mistakes and know what works and what doesn't.

Now here are the MISTAKES you could be making;

𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲

To put simply, online marketing can deliver amazing measurable results when done in the right way.

This does not mean that older and more traditional advertising methods have gone into extinction. The truth is that they still work to some extent, but cannot just be compared to online marketing. Avoiding mistake of impatience can help you ramp up a more successful online marketing campaign that delivers a positive Return on Investment (ROI).

However, content marketing, search engine optimization, and social media marketing are all components of online marketing and they are all time consuming in terms of getting its result.

You have to build a solid foundation and build from there, and just remember that quality results take time to mature. This is one of the issues associated with online marketing, because you expect immediate result which is somewhat impossible.

You don’t expect to get overnight intended result. It is important to understand that there are no overnight solutions, except for paid search marketing.

𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁

Many online MARKETERS think just posting thier PRODUCTs and how good it is will make people buy from them online.

Absolutely NO!.
Imagine yourself in the shows of your customers. Do you just buy something online because it is good?. Of course not.

There must be a reason why you decide to make that purchase. It's either because of the way it is presented (through contents) or the value you got by the marketer (through content).

Always put up contents that are relevant to the your audience. What they want is value!. By giving them content,you will always be at the top of thier minds and when they need that product you'll be the first to be in thier minds.

So always write valuable contents.

𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗻 𝗼𝗳𝗳-𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆

Please when doing your online marketing make sure direct your channel towards quality and not quantity and remember that new inbound links can be found in creative ways. Why am making this point is that many of you spend thousands on the creation of a new website, content, and perhaps a few social media profiles, later expecting a miraculous moment once these digital artifacts go live.

The fact is that the bubble of your own website and social profiles must be broken in order to attract any new leads at all. Just tray as much as possible to remain entrenched and you will be left in online purgatory with a few measly visits per day.

Avoid these mistakes and watch your business grow.

𝟓 𝐖𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐡 𝐅𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬

Many people start an online business and wait months before they start earning money. This is disheartening because they struggle to convert visitors, they struggle to rank for their keywords, and even more they struggle to pull traffic. Here are some ideas for getting started.

𝟭. 𝗞𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲𝘀.

Through coupon sites like Groupon and BuyWithMe or even on your own — can help you attract new customers, selling anything at a loss won’t help you generate a positive cash flow.

My view? Never discount. But if you do, know the costs and impact of what you’re offering and be prepared for the fallout. Among other things, you’ll need to know your overall cost basis.

𝟮. 𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀.

Even though discounting isn’t always recommended, adding value is. By creating bundles of products or services, for instance, businesses can inject tremendous amounts of perceived — and tangible — value into their offerings for very little cost.

A good example is the maintenance agreements some car manufacturers do provide with the purchase of a new car. Not only does that type of offer help allay a major concern or frustration customers have — paying for a breakdown or time lost at the dealership — it also offers real value in terms of limiting out-of-pocket maintenance costs.

𝟯. 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸-𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲.

If you know your initial offer to reel in new customers won’t be profitable, find ways to create higher price points on back-end products or services.

Perhaps the first hour of catering is free, but subsequent hours shoot up in price. Or maybe an attorney will agree to draft your will for less if she thinks you’re a likely candidate for estate-planning consultations in the future.

𝟰. 𝗘𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀.

If you’re in a volume-driven business like retail, landing repeat shoppers is your holy grail for cash flow, profit and growth. In most cases, you won’t start to profit on a customer until the third, fourth or even fifth transaction. For this reason, you need to devote your efforts toward getting customers coming back — and more often.

Consider loyalty programs, VIP offers and other frequent-shopper programs, which can be ideal vehicles for systematizing repeat business.

Also keep in mind that the word “free” is a popular incentive among shoppers, and the costs of funding a freebie may easily be covered as long as you’re dealing with excess inventory or low-cost, but valuable add-ons.

𝟱. 𝗣𝗿𝗲-𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀.

For owners who want to encourage sales sooner, pre-sell your products or services. You might couch the pre-sale as a way for consumers to plan for their future or get a jump on shopping. You can also offer to take old, outdated products back at a pre-arranged price.

Are you a new business owner and do you think you need that extra cash?

𝐇𝐎𝐓 𝐏𝐈𝐂𝐊 𝐄𝐗𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐃: 𝟒 𝐄𝐅𝐅𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐄𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐀𝐃𝐒 𝐓𝐄𝐂𝐇𝐍𝐈𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐒𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐁𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐒

The biggest problem of small businesses and thier owner is lack of VISIBILITY. I see many Business owners complain that they don't get customers online, but the real deal is that they are no where to be found.

For you to sell to customers you must first be visible,then your customers can know that you sell something.

Do you have a small business and have you been running ads on Facebook without conversion, which has lead to a decrease in sales?

The make sure you read this post to the end.

Do you know that there are over 90 million small businesses using Facebook platforms to grow their sales online?

In the third quarter of 2020, Facebook stated that 10 million active advertisers are using the social networking platform to promote their products and services on Facebook.

With over 2.85 billion monthly active users, making Facebook platform a great place for small businesses to promote their products and services.

With this huge metrics, it is important to develop an effective ad strategy to stand out and get the attention of your ideal customers to increase sales.

So the question would be how would you stand out among millions of businesses and advertisers?

#𝟭 𝗗𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲
The best way to find your target audience is by first thinking about the specific needs your product or service fulfill

A target audience is a group of people identified as being likely customers of a business you want to reach with your ad, because they may likely take action when they see them.

As a small business owner increasing sales begins with better targeting.

Understanding who your target audience is on Facebook is the first strategy you can use to increase sales for your business.

#𝟮 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽 𝗮 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝘆
Advert copy is not just about writing anything,it's about writing what triggers the action that leads to a sale.

when writing your ad copy, you must always keep your audience in mind, and write like you are speaking to your target audience to gain their attention.

To grab the attention of your target audience you must write about their pain points and challenges and how your products or services can help them achieve what they want.

You can also include a sense of urgency to your ad copy to prompts people to take action soon because the longer a person within your target audience contemplates whether to buy your product or service, the more likely it is to talk themselves out of it.

Another thing to include in your ad copy is a Call-to-action, which will tell people within your target audience what to do.

#𝟯 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽 𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗱 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲
An ad creative is the image or vedio of your product r service. Apart from your ad copy one thing that attracts people to buy your product or use your service is your ad creativity, which should also speak to your target audience.

When using an image as your ad creative, the image of your business and your unique products and services should be perfect, never use an image that doesn’t represent the product you sell or the services you offer.

Your image should contain fewer or no text because your ad may reach fewer people within your target audience if your image contains too much text.

Finally...

#𝟰 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀

These are the sites people are redirected to when they click on your ad on Facebook.

As a small business owner if you are running ads on Facebook to redirect people within your target audience to your landing page, then it must clearly represent your products or services that are being an advertiser.

Always ensure that the content on your landing page is relevant to your ad because directing people to irrelevant content can create a negative response to your ad.

Now you know the secret strategy that you would have paid N100,000 for Advertising for Free now 😊.

𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐖 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐄𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐏𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄𝐒 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐂𝐑𝐀𝐙𝐘 𝐓𝐈𝐏𝐒:

Many online business pages have experienced difficulty growing their fan page on Facebook, they have tried so many tips and tricks to increase their page likes but all turned out to be a wild goose chase.

Social media is one the biggest marketing tool you can ever use to get customers , the failure to grow your page means failure when it comes to generating leads on social media.

Now before I move on,I will only tell you little on this right here,I have complied everything in a PDF for you,so as not to make this post bulky.

You get it Right?

Let's goo...

Facebook advertising has been the most used method when it comes to growing your page likes on Facebook, but let me make something clear; it’s true many small businesses can’t pay for online advertising on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram and much more. What then should you do if your small-medium business wants to grow page likes?

1. 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗮 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁

You should learn how to post at a strategic time of the day. You need to know when your audience are online. Don't just post when they won't even see it on thier feeds.

According to social media experts, the best time to share contents is very early in the morning and late at night. Particularly around 8 pm, you get more people to read your page post.

2. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁, 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘀.

Running contests are still a fantastic way to get more likes for your page. You can even use your email list to promote the content and have people who only like your page participate.

If you have an amazing contest idea, just know that chances are high that Facebook users will jump on it. It’s just a matter of finding the best fit for your brand and target audience. To make sure your contest stays lawful and doesn’t get shut down, make sure you follow the official contest rules provided on the page terms.
(More about this in the PDF)

3. 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴

most online businesses have an email list that’s about ten times as big as their page fan base. Amplify reach for your Page by linking to one of your top updates in the course of your normal e-mail communications.

Because these people are already familiar with your business,your email subscribers will naturally like, comment on, and share it as well with their Facebook friends. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg on what you can do with email marketing.

4. 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗲𝘀

Images and memes are one of the most productive display contents on social media.

People tend to like entertainment and News on social media more than marketing and always saying "buy ,buy buy".
Learn to entertain your audience,this will keep them glued to your page. People love humour, let your users find something awesome to laugh about when they scroll you’re your page. Laughter helps to spice up the day.

5. 𝗔𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀

Be creative!.
Don’t hesitate to post those contents you know has been working for your page. However, you should look to get more valuable contents for your visitors. Here are some questions you need to ask yourself;

Ask yourself:

Would I share this with my friends?
What gets people talking?
What trending in your cause?
What are competing nonprofits posting on Facebook?
How can we be useful or even indispensable to our community?
Content is KING.

𝟓 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐃𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃 𝐔𝐒𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐆𝐄𝐑 𝐀 𝐒𝐀𝐋𝐄

Do you remember yourself saying stuffs like this?

"𝑀𝑒𝑛ℎ, 𝑢𝑝𝑜𝑛 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑘𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑔𝑖𝑒𝑠 𝑎𝑚 𝐼’𝑚 𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑙𝑦𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑖𝑛 𝑚𝑦 𝑏𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠, 𝐴𝑙𝑙 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑦 𝐼 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑟𝑢𝑛𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑠𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑠𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝐴𝑑𝑠, 𝑦𝑒𝑡 𝐼 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒𝑛’𝑡 𝑏𝑒𝑒𝑛 𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑡𝑜 ℎ𝑖𝑡 𝑚𝑦 𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑡ℎ𝑙𝑦 𝑠𝑎𝑙𝑒𝑠 𝑔𝑜𝑎𝑙... 𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑒𝑙𝑠𝑒 𝑐𝑎𝑛 𝐼 𝑑𝑜 𝑡𝑜 𝑔𝑒𝑡 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑐𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒 𝑚𝑦 𝑠𝑎𝑙𝑒𝑠?”

𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑐𝑎𝑛 𝐼 𝑑𝑜... 𝐻𝐸𝐿𝑃!"

Selling both offline and online is not as easy as Hawking on the streets.

Selling, is you giving out your value in exchange for that cash. So to be able to get that cash you must be able to give me reason why I should buy from you here and now.

Every human being loves money,and no one is willing to spend on something that is worthless.

So today I want to teach you how you can tap into the BRAIN of your CUSTOMERS with just simple words that will make them pull out thier wallet (for the guys) or purse (for the ladies) and give you thier credit card to withdraw whatever amount you want to collect from them with just 𝟓 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐃𝐒.

As a business owner, you’re likely going to be looking for new ways to get more customers for your business.

A lot of times, you’ve tried out different Ads strategies and sales techniques the "Gurus" taught you, yet all you keep getting is enquiries which never convert to sales.

Here’s the truth:

The reason WHY I have helped and taught my clients and mentees how to scale to multiple 7 figures is because I know the difference between 𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 and 𝗣𝘀𝘆𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 that can make people literally beg you to take their money.

Now when it comes to writing Sales copy for your Sponsored Ads (whether Facebook or Instagram) you need to understand these

There are words that trigger sales vs words that don’t trigger sales. Knowing the difference between the two will determine to a large extent the rate at which you close a sale. These are some of the most powerful words you can use when selling.

Now here are the POWERFUL WORDS :
“𝐘𝐨𝐮,” “𝐍𝐞𝐰,” “𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞,” “𝐍𝐨𝐰,” 𝐚𝐧𝐝 “𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭.”

𝐘𝐎𝐔: People buy Because of what's in it for them,not because of you. Ie. They buy Because of thier benefit, it's grabs thier attention.

𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄: people like free stuff. You have to understand,that human beings don't like risk,so you should think of how you can eliminate the risk for the prospect.
Imagine you want to buy a meat pie and you are given a sample to taste,you automatically want to buy Because it taste good and it's Free.

𝐍𝐄𝐖: We want to know what's NEW. Everybody likes NEW stuff. Have you ever imagined why you listen to the News everyday?. Or why you login to social media just to get new stuff. So in your marketing use the word NEW!. New

𝐍𝐎𝐖: Delay Kills the sale. Procrastination is our enemy. You do not want the prospect to procrastinate. So the one way to instill urgency is using the word NOW!

𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐓 : Oh boy! People love Secrets 😂. They want to know Secrets. It's just part of human psychology.

Let me give you an example with my book "SECRETS FOR A SUCCSUFUL ONLINE BUSINESS".

" I want to show you powerful Secrets strategies that no enterprenuer,NO business tycoon, NO digital marketing expert,is willing to tell you about being SUCCSUFUL selling ONLINE. In this book I have included both Ancient secrets and New techniques that works both now and will work forever if you apply them correctly. The information in the book are FREE for you but you can get them with just a chicken change of #2,000. Get your NOW!. "

So instead of saying “Buy this product” Say “Buy this Product Now.” The word " "Now" is a powerful psychological word. You subconsciously trigger your Prospect to take action immediately. Remember, a delayed sales might end up being no sales at all.

Now, that's it.
It's very simple, straight forward but POWERFUL.

Go ahead and include these words in your sales copy or conversation with your customers or prospects and watch them beg you for your product or service.

Always remember to give value first before the sale!.

Talk to you soon.

𝐖𝐇𝐘 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐁𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐒 𝐅𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐒 𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝟑 𝐌𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐇𝐒

I read a statistic recently that said 90 percent of new online businesses failed in the first three months months.

Three months! The reasons for this you may ask?

There are many.

Failure in business is normal, Because when you fail,you know how to Succeed better. But it's unwise for you to fail and quit without knowing why you failed.

Having been through the journey myself recently, so I’ve rounded off 10 main reasons your online business failed. I’ve seen people fail at starting their own online business, be it e-commerce, blog, business websites, online services site and lots more.

𝟭𝟬. 𝗟𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁

You talk about how much you want to start your own business with your family or friends, but you never really commit to getting started.

You keep waiting for the ‘right time’ or continue to ‘think about it’ without ever getting started.

You keep talking about getting a digital marketing training but never do.

𝟵. 𝗣𝗼𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴

You finally get started but you didn’t plan well enough for the financial, emotional, mental and physical implications.

You didn’t save enough money, you didn’t do enough research, you didn’t get good coaching advice or you got trained by people with little or no experience in digital marketing.

As a result, you run out of money and ideas very quickly with no plan of how to get yourself back on track.

𝟴. 𝗟𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻

You simply don’t take enough (or any) action. Or if you do, because you’re new at business your actions aren’t properly aligned to your business so you waste a lot of time.

𝟳. 𝗡𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲

You attempt to grow your following on Facebook and Instagram but instead of being tactful and use the right strategy you spend entire days browsing aimlessly.

𝟲. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲, 𝗼𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺.

So when you do get yourself all set up with your new website, page and business cards you’ll be completely baffled as to why new customers aren’t queuing up out the door.
You have no idea about running social media ads, content marketing, SEO or sales, so as much as you are fantastic at what you do, you can’t sell yourself, so you get very little business.

𝟱. 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻..

you don’t have one. Or even if you do, you’ve just made it up with no real idea about how to generate the numbers or how to hit any of your targets.

𝟰. 𝗢𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝘄𝗻

You keep yourself hidden behind the curtains (i.e. your laptop) as opposed to being as visible as possible.

𝟯. 𝗟𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹

You decide not to enlist the help of professionals or get professional training and instead try to figure out everything on your own.
You spend hours each week on non-money making tasks, such as fixing annoying tech issues with your website or mailing list,or waste money on ads

𝟮. 𝗟𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲

You end up scared, overwhelmed and lost, and frustrated at your lack of results. You realise there is a long road ahead that you aren’t prepared for.

𝟭. 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗺

Comparison crushes your creativity and feeds self-doubt, worry and concern.

Concern that you’re not good enough, smart enough, young enough, old enough, not ‘liked’ enough, not earning enough or that there’s something wrong with you, in general, can really knock your confidence.

I have experienced this sometimes ago,when I go online to see my competitors and how far they have gone,it really weakens me but realized I have to do better than them.

Success (apparently) breeds success, but what I found is that when you’re looking at other people’s skyrocketing results day after day, it can leave you feeling down and deflated, certainly NOT motivated, if you’re not getting those same results.

So now you know why you fail.

𝐒𝐨,𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝟏𝟎 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐥?

I will share just 3 of then here and put the rest in a PDF file for you to gain access to for free. The link to download is below.

𝟭𝟬. 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁

Decide to do it and commit to doing it.

𝟵. 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱

Save as much money as you can and do your research.

What software will you need?

What professional digital marketing training will you attend? Connect with other entrepreneurs and ask them for advice.

What worked for them and what didn’t when they first got started? Our digital marketing community is aimed networking with other digital marketing professionals to address and resolve your marketing issues.

𝟴. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻

Take consistent action that is aligned with your business. Answer the following questions below and you’re good to go.

What is your end message?
Who is your ideal client?
Where can you find them?
What problem are you trying to solve for them?
How can you monetize what you are doing?

10 𝙃𝙊𝙍𝙍𝙄𝙁𝙄𝘾 𝙈𝙄𝙎𝙏𝘼𝙆𝙀𝙎 𝘽𝙐𝙎𝙄𝙉𝙀𝙎𝙎 𝙊𝙒𝙉𝙀𝙍𝙎 𝘿𝙊 𝘼𝙉𝘿 𝙈𝙐𝙎𝙏 𝘼𝙑𝙊𝙄𝘿

You always hear about the important things that entrepreneurs should ‘do’ in order to become successful.

However, its rare that people talk about the things that business owners should NOT do when it comes to running and growing their businesses, on or offline.

𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻
So many small businesses fail because the owner didn’t develop a complete business plan. Knowing that you want to sell a certain product or provide a type of service is just an idea. If you want to have success, you have to dig into that idea and create a plan for turning it into a successful business.

Beyond just having an idea, you need to figure out how you are going to fund your business. You will also need to work on a plan for marketing. Consider whether you are going to have a physical location or sell online. Do research to learn about the type of customer that is going to buy from your company. Depending on the type of business and your goals, there can be a lot of details that will need to be worked out before you get started.

𝗧𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝗧𝗼𝗼 𝗤𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗹𝘆
Growth is an obvious goal for any business. With that said, if you try to expand at a rate that is too quick for your business, it can result in the failure of the business. Expansion is often funded with debt and if you take on too much debt as you expand, all it takes is a small change in the market to make your business unsustainable.

Expanding too fast can also lead to operational problems.
If you take on too many new clients, you might not be able to handle the increased workload with your existing staff. This could cause a decline in the quality of your products or services. The decline in quality could then lead to a loss of customers, and if that occurs during the increased spending that often comes with growth, it could be disastrous for your business.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗢𝘄𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗧𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗧𝗼𝗼 𝗠𝘂𝗰𝗵
While running a small business does come with a lot of responsibility, business owners need to recognize their limitations. You only have so many hours in a day and you probably do not have the expertise to do everything that comes with running a small business.

If you can delegate some of the work to employees, that will make it easier for you to focus on the core tasks that come with running your company. You may even need to consider getting help from professionals for things like accounting and marketing. You also have different types of business software that can save you time and make some of the work easier.

𝗙𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗱𝗮𝗽𝘁
As a small business owner, you need to be able to recognize the need for change. Maybe your idea wasn’t as good as you thought it was. Maybe your idea was a success at first, but the market changed. Maybe there is a better or more efficient way to achieve the same result.

Regardless of why your company needs to change, you need to be able to adapt when the circumstances call for it. Don’t get stuck in your ways just because they used to work. Don’t get emotionally invested in an idea that seemed good to you but is not having success in the real world. Sometimes you just have to accept that you were wrong and start making moves to get your business on the right track.

𝗜𝗴𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸
Your customers can provide insights you would never be able to uncover on your own. They use your product or service and they pay your business. If your offering isn’t serving them well or they don’t like something about doing business with your company, there is a good chance they will share their experience.

Instead of ignoring this feedback or viewing it as an attack, you should accept it with an open mind and see if there is a way you can use it to the benefit of your business. Read customer reviews if they leave them on your website; look for mentions on social media; try to conduct surveys to get in-depth information about the customer experience.

HOW TO CLOSE MORE SALES FAST!!

Recently a friend of mine got an email from Jacob that said, “Can you tell me how to make my prospects make payments for my products fast? I keep having lots of them but yet, very few end up paying and the rest is AWOL.

“By this time, I’ve already sent them all our marketing materials. They seem interested. Then, after they see the prices, nothing. What am I missing?”

Well, I can’t tell you how many times salespeople have asked me to help them get better at closing. However, despite what you think, it’s not the real problem.

Five things you can do to get better at closing sales.

1. Focus on the customer, not on the deal.
When you’re trying to sell something, it’s really easy to focus on what you want (the deal) because that’s what’s important to you, personally. Thinking that way, however, alienates your customers who want you to put their interests first. Putting the customer first increases the likelihood the customer will buy.

2. Be a storyteller.
Know your product but share its relevance. Share examples of how you’ve helped other prospects improve. Be able to explain how they were doing things before, the challenges they faced, and the results they’ve achieved since working with you. People with an engineering background often wrongly assume that selling consists of telling the customer about your wonderful product. Unfortunately, customers often can’t translate features and functions into something that’s relevant to them. Selling consists of exposing that relevance and the best way to do that is through story telling.

3. Slow down.
Based on what you said, you may be moving things along much too fast. You’re showing your stuff, sending collateral and giving pricing. It’s highly likely that they don’t feel like you’re focused on their success. Take time to build the relationship so that they truly feel that you’re a credible resource, not a self-serving sales guy. It’s difficult to put the customer’s interests first and expose the relevance your product may have to that customer if you don’t know much about that customer. Ask questions to better know the individuals and the customer so this way you can connect on an emotional level.

4. Connect the dots.
It’s imperative to engage your prospect in a discussion. This helps you/them determine if your offering makes sense for them. Here are some good ones to start with:
How are you currently handling your needs in this area?
What are your objectives relevant to the matters this product/service addresses?

What initiatives do you already have in place to get there?
If you achieved results similar to our other customers, what would this mean for you?
See where I’m going with this? If your prospects aren’t making the connections between what you sell and the value they could get from it, it’s because you’re leaving it to happenstance.
Don’t let that happen. Plan your questions ahead of time. They are your greatest tools in getting to a yes.

The holy grail of customer loyalty is to become a “trusted advisor” who’s seen as a valuable resource beyond the specific area where you’re selling. Use your connections or specialized knowledge to make the customer’s job easier. Think of it as an investment in your own future.

5. Stop trying to close.
Instead, focus on helping your prospect determine if it makes good business sense to change. If it does, they’ll say yes. If not, they’ll stay with what they’ve got.

Today’s prospects are too savvy to fall prey to any closing techniques. The more you try to do it, the less they want to do business with you. Instead, put your emphasis on the front end of the sales cycle.
Forget that A.B.C. (Always Be Closing) stuff. It’s easier to sell if you think about selling as getting the customer to make series of small commitments each of which follows in logical order. That way, when it’s time to “close the deal,” it’s usually just a matter of saying “so, we’re going forward on this, right?”
