Brands that Book Show

Today we’re diving into ChatGPT, how you can use it for your business, and how to get the most out of it. Seems like everyday I run across new ways to use this tool, and let me tell you, it has completely transformed my content creation workflow. No, I don’t think the tools are replacing […]

In this episode, we hear about her approach to marketing and how her new software, Enji, can help small business owners in their marketing efforts. We chat about the biggest struggles small business owners face when it comes to marketing their business and how to make marketing a habit.

Instagram Reels expert, Corrin Jaskinski, joins me on the podcast today to discuss how to get started with Instagram Reels. Corrin grew her following from about 3,600 to about 60,000 using Instagram Reels and it’s one of the primary ways she markets her photography business.

One of the most effective ways to build trust and create a loyal following is to leverage an email welcome sequence.

These sequences typically consist of a series of automated emails that are triggered upon a user signing up for a newsletter or opting in to receive emails from a business. The reason businesses create them is simple: they work! An effective welcome sequence can build trust, establish a connection with subscribers, and move them towards a purchase decision.

By using a targeted series of emails, businesses can turn new subscribers who are only vaguely familiar with the brand into loyal customers or clients. A well-crafted welcome sequence is a powerful tool in any marketer’s arsenal, and can help to drive conversions, build relationships, and increase revenue.

We cover simple ideas for lead generation, what makes a good lead magnet, and how to actually get people signed up for your list. It’s easier than you think! Your lead magnet doesn’t have to be 3000 pages long and professionally designed. You don’t need more than one lead magnet either. This is something you can get started setting up today, more coming in this episode.

Relationships and content are key when it comes to running a successful business and if you’ve listened to this podcast, it’s something you’ve heard us say many times before. In today’s episode, we’re discussing the relationship side of that equation.

Trying to decide on which email platform is best for you? Here’s a comparison of two popular email marketing platforms: ConvertKit vs. Flodesk.

We’ve been taking a hard look these past few months at how we share content, especially across social media. Basically, we weren’t thrilled with the amount of engagement and started to experiment with a few different strategies to increase engagement. And some of those experiments would make for an interesting, if not comical, podcast episode, at some point.

Today’s episode, however, focuses on one simple way that we were able to get more engagement on social media while also increasing the amount of referral traffic from our social channels to our website. This episode is all about writing effective hooks. It’s one of those simple tweaks that can make a big difference.

Whether you’re a marketer, a business owner, or a content creator, persuasive copywriting is key to standing out and compelling readers to take action. On the latest episode of the Brands that Book podcast and in this blog post, we explore 11 proven copywriting tips that will help you make your copy more persuasive and effective in driving your desired conversion.

Copywriter Sarah Klongerbo joins me on the podcast today, to discuss why bad grammar is costing you business and what you can do to easily fix it. I give Sarah a lengthy intro in the episode so I’ll spare you that here but suffice it to say that Sarah is someone that I highly trust. One thing I really appreciate about this episode is that Sarah did a ton of research so that people can understand the tangible benefits of paying a little closer attention to their copy.

“Sometimes you just have to go and do the things that others won’t. You have to get back on that new business grind and do those things that don’t necessarily scale. Maybe things that you haven’t done for a while.” Before recording Part 2 of the Marketing Quick Start Episode, we heard from a business […]

This week’s podcast episode with @candicecoppoa is a good one. She’s challenging you to show up in your business.

“You need to stop hiding. If you want to build a brand that is recognized. If you want to be sought after. If you want all the clients and all the leads. If you need more money in your business to grow, I need you to start showing up and to stop hiding. Because if you’re not going to talk about your business, who’s going to do it for you?”

If the thought of putting yourself out there on social media (TikTok anyone?) gives you anxiety, you’re going to want to tune into this episode.

It’s (almost) like a personal coaching session with Candice.

Today on the podcast is part 2 of The Marketing Quickstart Episode. In part 1 which was episode 185, we answered a question from a listener who asked, “Where would we recommend someone get started with marketing their services?” In today’s episode we’re answering a bunch of followup questions that we received from part 1.

Today’s guest is business mindset coach, Brad Bizjack, and we are discussing how to rewire your brain for 6-and-7-Figure Success. For a long time I’ve been skeptical of mindset coaching, but in the past few years I’ve come to realize how much mindset matters, especially in business as an entrepreneur, but in life too. Mindset can make the difference when it comes to changes or getting to that next level.
