Marketing legend Robert Collier once said, "Enter the conversation already taking place in the customer's mind." This principle is more relevant today than ever before. When you understand the transformation your audience seeks, you can: Craft website copy that immediately resonates with visitors. Write articles that address your audience's most pressing questions and concerns. Create videos that demonstrate the exact results your audience wants to achieve. Post social media content that sparks meaningful engagement around topics your audience truly cares about. Optimize directory listings with descriptions that highlight how you deliver the outcomes your audience desires. So, what is this magical lever that ties everything together? It's the ability to consistently and accurately identify and address your audience's desires across all your marketing channels.

The greatest marketers only do 1% of the work. This statement probably sounds unrealistic without any context, but after studying some of the greatest marketing campaigns I've seen throughout the past few years, I've noticed a common theme, being that a large share of promotion was done by the market itself. Starting with a great message and a narrative that's sure to get people talking will often lead to the audience doing the work for you. Whether it's a line from a song that listeners are going to speculate over, or visuals that people relate to on a personal level, you're able to let the consumers take the lead and push your campaign to new audiences. Although this idea most specifically relates to digital marketing, it can also be applied to any other form of marketing. If you can get people talking and take advantage of the new reach in the right ways, you're on track to create a successful domino effect.

Most businesses think they need a huge budget for impactful marketing. The truth? Smart strategies can outperform big budgets. “The best marketing strategy ever: Care.” - Gary Vaynerchuk. When a small boutique bakery in downtown LA started losing customers to larger chains, they didn't have the budget for expensive ads. Instead, they focused on personalized customer experiences and leveraging social media to tell their story. By showing genuine care and engaging directly with their audience, they not only regained their customer base but also expanded it. The lesson? In the world of online marketing, authenticity and creativity can trump even the largest budgets.

"Want to convert clicks into devoted clients? The key to making your marketing genuinely compelling is right here." Simply grabbing attention is insufficient in today's digital world; you also need to establish a connection that leads to conversions. The most effective advertising efforts establish a rapport in addition to selling a product. So, how can you differentiate your marketing? It all comes down to knowing your audience, communicating with them in their own terms, and providing an irresistible offer. Your approach should immediately address their requirements, whether that be through an emotional connection, a game-changing value proposition, or just fixing a problem they were unaware they had. Put an end to shouting into thin air and begin *engaging* with information that speaks to you. Being loud isn't the secret to effective marketing; rather, it's about

Attention is the real battlefield in marketing. It's not just other brands or organizations we're up against. It's every single thing that pulls our audience's focus. Think about a typical day. We all get the same 24 hours, but those hours are already full. Our audience is busy with: * Sleep * Work * Family and friends * Scrolling on phones * Watching TV * Housework * A bit of downtime They're stretched thin, dividing their attention across countless tasks and moments. So when we're vying for their attention, we're not just competing with another brand or the next ad. We're competing with someone's everyday life. Every message we craft has to cut through that noise. It must earn a place in those precious moments. That's the challenge—and the art—of attention marketing. Ask yourself: What can you do today to capture attention? Start by understanding your audience’s daily moments, and craft everything you do to fit seamlessly into their world.

Where most projects fail to run a successful marketing campaign is their positioning. They don’t know how to position their brand and vision in a competitive space where everyone is fighting for limited attention. There’s 3 things that we noticed that help with this: 1. Narrative driven: Most marketing don’t understand how to drive narrative, and this is a big unlock, when you’re able to create the right pitches and understand your top of the funnel, marketing is much easier. 2. Timing: Timing truly plays a big part in the success of a project, finding a small gap where there aren’t many campaigns can make or break a project specially one with a small marketing budget. 3. Selective: Being selective of who your work with and partner up with has a big impact on a campaign, finding the right partners that target your ideal audience is the best way to go about it. I’ve helped 60+ projects with their go to market, and most of them didn’t have these 3 things clear. Understanding these fundamentals can be a big unlock in a marketing campaign.

"The best marketing doesn't feel like marketing." - Tom Fishburne This quote by Tom Fishburne, a renowned marketer, emphasizes the importance of creating marketing campaigns that don't feel like traditional advertising. Instead of pushing products or services onto customers, effective marketing should be subtle, engaging, and focused on providing value. When your marketing efforts align with what your audience wants and needs, it feels more like a conversation than a sales pitch. By understanding your customers deeply and creating content that resonates with them, you can build trust and loyalty, ultimately leading to more meaningful connections and better business outcomes. So, the next time you're planning a marketing campaign, think about how you can make it more authentic and less promotional. Focus on telling a story, solving a problem, or sharing valuable insights that will genuinely interest your audience. When done right, your marketing won't feel like marketing at all — it'll feel like a natural extension of your brand's values and beliefs. #marketing #personalbranding #marketingcampaign

I absolutely love this comment Ryan Bartlett made yesterday on a post. The author did a great job breaking down True Classic’s marketing strategy, highlighting key areas that clearly contributed to their success. But Ryan’s response hit the nail on the head. It’s a powerful reminder that great marketing can’t cover up a subpar product. Brands that try to rely on flashy campaigns without investing in product development miss the mark. It’s why some brands struggle while others, like True Classic, thrive—they put in the work perfecting every detail. Before launching your next big ad campaign, make sure your product is rock solid. Marketing amplifies, but product excellence is what truly drives long-term success. I've included a link in the comments to check it out for yourself.
