Generación de biblioteca de contenido UGC mediante entrevistas a clientes reales
Estrategia de contenidosPara nutrir campañas de publicidad pagada y redes sociales con contenido generado por usuarios (UGC) genuino, conecta a tu videógrafo directamente con clientes actuales (en persona o vía Zoom) para que expliquen con sus propias palabras por qué compran y les gusta tu producto.
media marketing, you name it, is UGC content, which is in essence, your customer telling the world why they like, but also as a part of that overall content strategy, then get UGC, talk to your client. Like I would actually find out who your clients are with that videographer, and then maybe even get them on a call on a zoom or visit them in person and bring your videographer with you, say why they like your stuff. And so it's, I'm taking a content library because you're taking a look back.

Utilizar la venta presencial para validar el mercado y entender al cliente antes de escalar online
Investigación de mercado y clienteAnte un presupuesto publicitario reducido, invertir tiempo en venta física directa permite interactuar cara a cara con el público objetivo, descubrir sus verdaderas preferencias y objeciones, y transferir esa experiencia validada a la estrategia de venta digital.
I've seen in our other clients do when we give this same advice is when you show up to where your customers are, if you have a limited amount of budget, you have more time. And that time is to do long eight, 12 hour grueling days, get in front of your customer, understand what they like, figure out what their needs are, and then transform that in-person experience online. I think the stories

Contactar personalmente a los primeros clientes antes de invertir en publicidad
Investigación de mercado y clienteAntes de gastar presupuesto en publicidad digital, se debe contactar uno a uno a los clientes existentes (por teléfono, email o en persona) para preguntarles por qué compraron y utilizar esos aprendizajes cualitativos en la segmentación y mensajes del marketing posterior.
oftentimes overlooked. Go to your customers and actually talk to them and or email them personally and reach out to them like one by one by one. I remember reading the story about every phone number, give them a call, say, Hey, thanks so much for supporting my business. I don't know you. Why did you buy from me? I, she just doesn't have, for me, she doesn't have enough information about her customer to get ready to do online advertising. She'll be the last thing on her, that's where your customers are. Why did they buy from you? Why did they sign up? Go meet them. point, which is not…

Estrategia y decisiones de negocioEl crecimiento de un negocio debe seguir la secuencia de operar manualmente de forma artesanal uno a uno, automatizar únicamente lo que ya se probó que funciona y finalmente escalar; intentar automatizar antes de validar suele llevar al fracaso.
before on the podcast is that reason I say handcraft and then automate, this is the way everyone, everyone wants to automate first. It's like, it's the, it doesn't make sense because you need to actually know automate what you've proven worked. Right, right. You scale. Like you start one by one hand crafting, then you automate, then you scale. That's how it works. Sorry, ladies and gentlemen, sorry to burst your bubble. You don't automate first and then figure it out later because then you're probably out of business.

Requisitos previos antes de invertir en publicidad pagada
Canales de adquisiciónUn negocio no está preparado para invertir en publicidad digital si no cuenta previamente con dos elementos esenciales: conocimiento profundo del cliente (consumer insight) y contenido que comunique claramente la oferta.
whether it's phone calling or setting up in-person events. And when you've got time, your time should be spent getting to know your customer. When you've got $10,000 and you're selling physical products or in-person, whatever it is, it's the, uh, videographer or content. It's creating content so people know what you have to sell. You need content and you need consumer insight. Without either of those, you're not ready for paid ads. I agree. So I think we've

Canales de adquisiciónPara negocios con tracción inicial o recurrente, la estrategia de mayor impacto consiste en identificar qué acción concreta ya está generando clientes (por ejemplo, video orgánico o colaboraciones) y concentrar el esfuerzo en hacer más de eso, eliminando la dispersión en nuevas herramientas o canales.
So what you're saying is essentially you do fuel on the fire and do more of what already worked. Stop reinventing. well, what, what's, what's working right now that is making you money? Oh, I'm doing this other thing. Well, why are you doing all these nine other things? Going back to our original premise of this is lean in, clear your mind of all those distractions, focus in on that one thing. five, $6 million business. It's like, what are you doing right now? It's working. He's like, oh, we do a lot of YouTube videos and we do a lot of that. Like, okay, do more of that. He's like, what? It's…

Vender en eventos presenciales de nicho para saltarse la educación de categoría
Canales de adquisiciónAsistir a convenciones, ferias o festivales donde el público ya es afín a una subcultura u origen geográfico específico elimina la necesidad de educar sobre por qué consumir esa categoría general, permitiendo enfocar la venta directamente en el producto propio y captar clientes que luego transicionan al canal online.
I sell Korean and Japanese products. So I attended Korean and Japanese festivals or anime cons, where I knew my target customer was. The challenge that I've had with selling Korean beauty online has always been, I have to convince someone why Korean. Instead of having to convince why Korean and then why my products, I'm just going to the places where the audience already likes Korean. If you're watching anime, you already like East Asian stuff. If you're attending a Korean festival, you obviously already like Korean items. So I don't have to sell the type of product, I sell the specific…

Marca y posicionamientoEn mercados donde el producto es difícil de diferenciar por sí solo, documentar el detrás de escena, la cadena de producción y la historia personal del fundador crea una conexión emocional que funciona como propuesta única de venta (USP) y facilita la atracción de clientes e influencers.
this is all about you, but people now want to know more about what's behind the scenes too. Like, why did you actually create this brand? Who are you? Like, what's your story? Tell me about the founder's story of why you decided to quit the corporate world and do this. it's like, people want to know that they want to see why they want to see your manufacturing plant. They want to see, you know, the woman who's stitching the clothes. They want to see all these things. We're a behind the scenes or it's my social media marketing manager says we're a BTS world, baby.

Canales de adquisiciónLos negocios en etapas iniciales frecuentemente saturan su capacidad intentando ejecutar simultáneamente múltiples tácticas complejas (múltiples redes sociales, secuencias de email complejas, SMS o pop-ups) sin haber validado ninguna. En lugar de aplicar estrategias sobredimensionadas para el tamaño del negocio, se debe seleccionar una única acción o canal que demuestre tracción y ejecutarla con estricta…

I don't know if you giving. He's like, if you can just do one, I know from one of these playbooks, just one from all these options and you do it successfully. Well, that's where you start, but it's people get so much how would you start? How would you start? Absolutely. So my biggest advice to people is pick one thing that you do really well and be very consistent on that. So this, this show is

Estrategia de contenidosPara negocios de servicios profesionales, consultoría o marcas donde el fundador es el rostro visible, la mejor asignación de un presupuesto disponible (como 10.000 USD) es contratar a un videógrafo que documente continuamente sus actividades para generar y editar un alto volumen de contenido de captación.
for her were the influencers. I will default to what my default answer is to services that have a personality. So if you are providing services for clients, if you're a coach or consultant, you're in the legal space, it's, it's your face is the brand and you're doing in-person services or even online services. Um, someone has $10,000. I can't take credit for but it was get 10,000. Your first $10,000 should hire a videographer, have someone follow you, have someone make so much content that they're able to edit. That's what I would do.

Oferta y precioEl contenido audiovisual de alta producción enfocado en la historia del fundador o el proceso artesanal es crítico cuando se maneja un precio de lujo (5 a 6 veces superior al mercado) para justificar el sobreprecio; en ofertas de bajo margen o precio competitivo, este tipo de video pasa a segundo término frente a la prueba social directa.
And again, it's dependent on your, your product price point, because if you have an expensive product price point, and that price point is giving you a competitive advantage over your customers, assuming that competitive advantage being like, you're five to six times more expensive than your customers. So someone needs to be like, why are you so expensive? I think those type of videos are mission critical to justify your luxury price. But if you're in a race, the bottom and or your, your price point is not a strong competition. I still think that some of those type of videos aren't going to…

Construir una base de contenido propio antes de activar tráfico externo
Estrategia de contenidosAntes de contratar agencias, pagar publicidad o depender de recomendaciones de influencers, la marca debe contar con una base sólida de contenido propio en sus canales para transmitir identidad y convertir la atención de quienes lleguen referidos.
I was like, listen, if that influencer is going to sell your stuff for you, you need to have a base of content on your own site. That is the foundation so that when people do check you out from her recommendation, you have sort of this foundation of this is my brand. This is what it's all about. plan around content. And then the ads, the advertising, the hiring, the agency, doing all that stuff later is sort of your step two after you build this foundation of something that is

Marca y posicionamientoCuando los productos físicos de una marca no cuentan con una diferenciación funcional o visual inmediata frente al mercado, la historia de origen («founder story») y la personalidad del fundador deben actuar como el principal eje de posicionamiento para responder por qué el cliente debe comprar esa marca y no otra.
has it organized fairly well, but what it's missing is the personality of the brand and the personality of her and why her and why her brand. And that story that's behind that, because it's not like I'm just going to see that dress and I'm like going to buy it. There are going to be some people Stay away from ads. So my thing was, why would people buy your stuff more than above anything else or versus anything else? And it's, and she's like, well, she couldn't really answer It's you actually. And you and your founder's story. Like, why did you create this brand?

Estrategia de contenidosEl contenido acumulado (como episodios de podcast o videos de archivo) se convierte en un activo de largo plazo que continúa atrayendo, educando y convenciendo prospectos de forma constante años después de su publicación original.
yeah, all that stuff is going to serve you continuously. It's like our back catalog of episodes is like 720 something episodes. Like there are people still listening to episode 100. It's like you've created content, an asset. I know you weren't on those. It just wasn't the same. But anyway, they're listening to episode 675, which you were on. So the point is, is like those assets live forever. And I think, and they're silent salespeople for your business that are always going to be there.

Medición y experimentosEn lugar de guiar las decisiones operativas por indicadores superficiales como 'likes', impresiones o interacciones, las prioridades de marketing deben determinarse trabajando en reversa desde las ventas y el pipeline calificado (leads a oportunidades de venta), identificando qué acción específica mueve directamente la aguja del negocio.
Some kind of inkling that whatever that thing was worked and created sales. Cause you're not in this just to get likes and shares and impressions and all those, those are leading indicators potentially. But at the end of the day, you want sales, you want leads as we talk about it to marketing qualified leads to, or opt-ins really to sales qualified leads. Like at the end of the day, you want pipeline, you want sales at the end of all that. So work backwards to what the thing is, is that it's going

La historia del fundador potencia la recomendación más que la adquisición en frío
Mensaje y copywritingEl relato sobre el origen y propósito del fundador rara vez genera compras en frío de forma aislada; su mayor efectividad radica en dar un motivo emocional a quienes ya conocen o compraron la marca para que la compartan y recomienden con entusiasmo a su círculo.
are really important and really good, but they're going to impact the people who are already familiar with who she is. So it becomes like a level two for me because the person that's going to care about the founder stories and be someone who already bought from her and they're going to share that with their friends. It becomes a referral component where it's like, check this out. I love this founder story. This is amazing. So rarely will I buy something just because of the founder story. But if I have founder story plus someone who told me about it, now I'm committed because I have their

doing. When I got my first website development client, it's because I stood in, I've told you this story. I stood in Barnes and Noble in the website book section and basically accosted people. And I would go there and I would go to the business section. Then I would like meander over into the web development section. And whoever was reading a book say, Hey, you're looking to build a website. And I would hand out my card. So I love the hand, like the handcrafted face to face.

Estrategia de contenidosUn video altamente producido enfocado en la historia del fundador o el origen de la marca suele tener un costo de producción que oscila entre 10.000 y 30.000 dólares.
Like, I mean, like the founder story is good, but most of the time those founder stories, like those videos by themselves cost 10 to $30,000 just to create. Like there's a lot that goes into those highly produced videos. And I think a founder story should be highly produced.

up to a festival, paying $300, working an entire 18 hour day and selling $800, $900 of product, getting direct customer feedback than I could if I spent $10,000 on online sales. So I would find the power of it. I mean, there were times where I was doing $10,000, $6,000, $10,000 a day at some of those festivals because when you're going to the non-obvious cons or the non-obvious one, people
