  • Building an Audience is Like Dating
    2024/08/22

    Episode Summary

    In this episode of the Conversations with a Digital Strategist podcast, I explore the fascinating parallels between building an audience and dating. Just like romantic relationships, building a loyal audience involves multiple stages, from the initial attraction to a lifelong commitment. I’ll break down the five stages of dating and how they relate to audience engagement:

    * Initial Meeting/Attraction - Knowing where to find your audience.

    * Curiosity, Interest, and Infatuation - Capturing their attention with consistent, high-quality content.

    * “Enlightenment” and Becoming a Couple - Deepening the relationship through valuable interactions like live events and email sign-ups.

    * Engagement - When your audience makes their first purchase.

    * Forever Commitment or Marriage - Achieving repeat purchases and fostering referrals.

    I’ll also discuss the key elements that matter in this process—such as consistency, quality, and honesty—and debunk the myths about quantity, perfect timing, and overpromising results.

    Key Topics Discussed

  • Understanding Marketing, Advertising, and Promotion
    2024/05/28

    The terms "marketing," "advertising," and "promotion" are often used interchangeably, but they have distinct meanings. In this week's episode, we discussed the differences and similarities between these three concepts.


    Understanding the differences between promotion, marketing, and advertising is crucial for any business strategy.


    Marketing is the broad umbrella that encompasses all activities aimed at understanding consumer needs, creating value, and building strong customer relationships to capture value in return. It includes market research, segmentation, targeting, positioning, and the development of a comprehensive marketing mix.


    Advertising, on the other hand, is a component of marketing focused specifically on communicating the brand message to a wide audience through various paid media platforms such as television, radio, print, and online ads. It aims to generate awareness, interest, and ultimately, desire for a product or service.


    Promotion is another subset of marketing that involves short-term tactics designed to evoke immediate responses, such as sales promotions, discounts, special offers, and other initiatives intended to boost sales, enhance product visibility, or introduce new products to the market.


    While all three elements work together to achieve business objectives, they each play a distinct role in the overall marketing strategy.
