Industry Trust Crisis
The market faces a trust crisis. Customers are skeptical of flashy offers and traditional direct marketing tactics.
Today's successful approach requires providing value first—building trust, content, and identity before asking for payment.
What Marketing Works Today?
Targeted Content
Interest media with clear value works better than mass-market approaches. Algorithms distribute content to relevant audiences.
Content Format
Short content (Reels, Shorts) drives discovery. Long-form builds depth and trust with your most loyal customers.
Consistency
Daily content publishing is crucial for growth and client acquisition over time.
AI's Role in Marketing
AI is a tool, not a threat. Use it to improve efficiency and resource management.
Human connection, community, and authenticity will be the last domains AI conquers.
Companies integrate AI for automation, filtering, and fraud detection, while thought leaders remain relevant.
Community Management
Build communities around specific domains. Maintain active digital presence daily through posts and comments.
Community engagement is the primary metric for customer retention in today's market.
Simple Sales Approach
Include prominent links in all content that lead directly to monetisation opportunities, such as paid community membership.
