I thought I was a marketing expert until I met my SEO Expert Darren Hughes. After all, I spent over 20 years in marketing and advertising working for world class companies. Plus I graduated from UT, Austin with a degree in marketing. That was then and this is now…when the need to learn 21st century online branding strategy is what will define continued success.
In the spirit of full transparency and paying it forward…I am sharing Darren’s branding advice. Now you know why I’m blogging and you should too!
“The reason why I speak a lot about the importance of blogging and social media presence is because we really need to improve your brand image.
In order to do business online (generate awareness among potential clients), you don’t just need traffic, but you also need to be able to convince your target audience that you are the number 1 option.
A really effective way of doing this is by showing you as a thought-leader worth investing time and money in. If we’re able to do this, you will find that it’s much easier not only to generate web traffic, but also to convert it into paying customers. Things like writing great content on your blog, and on social media platforms is a cost-effective way of achieving this.” Darren Hughes ~ SEO Expert
I hope Darren’s advice helps your branding efforts and isn’t too overwhelming. Just know that if you do feel overwhelmed, you’re not alone. Here’s what my very talented Health Coach and friend Nancy Weiser has to say:
“…it’s a lot: not only do we have to be great at what we do at work and at home but you have to be “the number 1 option” and “a thought leader…write great content on your blog and on social media platforms…Sounds like super-Superwoman!”
