THREE SECRETS TO BATTLE BIG BOX
This segment of the episode focuses on three tactics that can assist you in driving more business your way. In the video, we show you how to access "Close Friends" on Instagram's settings area, which has all sorts of ways to treat your VIP's like royalty. Whether it's private Stories, videos, DM's, the possibilities are endless.
When it comes to the tactic 90% of business owners don't do, it's as simple as including a super-succinct, wordsmith'd phrase that reminds viewers of your differentiating factors as a "footer" in all your posts. From FREE, same-day delivery to face-timer personal shopping, consistency is king and queen. Related, is the one resource we mentioned, but didn't have time to walk you through, but fortunately, it's super user-friendly, it's Canva.com to take those "differentiators" you have and create your own fun, memorable sticker that you can then easily insert into your Instagram stories, and via the "Facebook share" can appear there too.
And lastly is the video tactic that not too many businesses do, and that's simply describing why their products and services are perfect for their customers. From the ingredients and colors available to how the fabrics feel, make it easy for your viewers to learn how you can make their world that much better. Here's a sample video from Barceloneta, a Santa Cruz restaurant that's so engaging on video...in this post, it's about sherry, and even though I'm not a sherry drinker, I now want to try it, watch this clip for some inspiration...
