Not Here To Gatekeep, Only Here To Upkeep
April 1, 2023
We’ve all heard of gatekeeping, where people keep their tips and tricks to themselves, leaving everyone else in the dark. But let’s face it, no one likes a gatekeeper, especially in this confusing and saturated digital world. We’re shaking things up and taking a new approach. Instead of gatekeeping all our secrets, we’re all about sharing the wealth and helping you make the most of your business marketing.
In a world where hustle culture constantly pushes us to our limits, we all need a break. Who wouldn’t want a successful business while having more time to enjoy life and avoid burnout?
We’re here to help you achieve that balance and make your online presence shine without sacrificing your mental health or personal life. So, pour a glass, settle in, and get ready, because it is time to unlock the gates and learn how to slay in the digital world while still having time to live your best life.
If you are a business owner struggling to get noticed online, you should consider guest posting. Guest posting is a marketing strategy that involves writing content for another website or blog.
In today’s digital world, the online market is incredibly saturated, with countless businesses vying for consumer attention. As a result, it can be challenging for businesses, especially smaller ones, to stand out and gain the necessary exposure to thrive. By publishing content on other websites, businesses can tap into their audience and potentially gain new followers and customers. Plus, earning a backlink to your website can improve your search engine rankings and increase your online authority.
For one, it allows you to tap into the audience of the website you’re writing for. You could reach thousands of new readers who have yet to discover your brand. Additionally, guest posting helps establish you as an authority in your industry. By sharing your knowledge and expertise, you can build trust and position yourself as a leader in your industry.
Of course, not all guest posting opportunities are created equal. It’s important to choose websites that align with your brand and values and to write content that provides genuine value to their readers. It’s also important to follow any guidelines or instructions the website provides, as you’ll need to do so to ensure your post is accepted.
While guest posting can certainly expand your audience with little effort, it’s essential not to neglect your existing followers. Whether or not to grow your email list is a hot topic in digital marketing. While some may argue that emails are a thing of the past, others believe that growing your email list is crucial for various reasons. Let’s open the gates to email marketing.
Firstly, it allows you to build a community of loyal subscribers genuinely interested in your brand, products or services. Secondly, it provides you with a direct channel of communication with your target audience, enabling you to nurture relationships, share valuable content and promote your offerings.
It’s important to note that spamming your email list can lead to negative consequences such as decreased engagement, unsubscribes, and even legal trouble. Which is one of the reasons why email marketers get such a bad rap.
To avoid spamming, always provide valuable content and ensure that your subscribers have given you their consent to receive emails from you. Additionally, use segmentation to tailor your messages to specific groups within your list and avoid bombarding them with too many emails. By growing your email list organically and respecting your subscribers’ preferences, you can create a loyal and engaged audience that is eager to hear from you. Your subscribers are waiting for you, treat them with elegance and respect.
Now, let’s talk about AI platforms. Tools like ChatGPT and Notion can be incredibly helpful for generating ideas and streamlining your workflow. However, it’s important to remember that they are just that – tools. While they can save you time and energy, they should never replace your own creativity and personal touch.
When creating educational content, it’s important to infuse your own opinions, experiences, and personal stories. This is what sets you apart as an expert in your field – not just the knowledge you have, but how you use it. While AI tools can help with the brainstorming and organization process, they can’t replace the unique perspective and voice that only you can bring to your content.
AI platforms are not just useful for generating ideas but also for enhancing productivity. When automating your business processes, improving workflow and productivity should be top priorities. There are several platforms worth considering, such as Monday, Notion, Slack, Motion, and Asana. Initially, we used Asana, but we eventually switched to Notion because of its ability to offer more than just calendar views.
Simplifying your business operations enables you to maintain focus on your core activities, without having to spend countless hours in front of your computer every day and every week.
Utilizing guest posting can broaden your reach and enhance your credibility within your industry, thereby serving as a potent marketing strategy. Although AI tools can assist in writing posts, it is crucial to infuse your unique perspective to distinguish yourself as an authority. Integrating AI into your daily business operations can aid in automating your processes.
The digital world is becoming increasingly saturated, and it is no secret that it is harder to stand out. However, this should not prompt you to give up or make you feel unworthy. Continue pushing forward, as the rewards are worth the effort, and remember to maintain your values, sophistication and elegance.
