Takeaways

- 2. Engagement (The Know, Like, Trust, and Remember Factor)
- 3. Conversion Campaigns
- Random doesn’t work. Traci says that engaging your ideal clients is a KEY takeaway. If your content is random, it won’t attract any set group of people. People will relate to you if your content is really straight forward IN your niche.
- Traci talks about engagement ads that work really well are: Videos, testimonials, GIF, very video focused.
- Remember that attracting clients is not a sprint. It’s a marathon. You have to take the necessary steps for people to know like trust and remember you.
- One key takeaway that Traci tells us, is that you need to take the leap in investing in Ads. It is scary. However, by spending money, you will be able to attract an audience that you never would have gotten in front of.
- Don’t compare your business to someone else. Just because one person you follow spent $10K on ads, doesn’t mean you’re necessarily ready for that. You have to make an investment using the data from YOUR business, no one else. You have to get the data that is unique to your own situation, and you will soar.
- You want to have a plan to be in front of your ideal clients without spamming them, but by simply adding value to them.
- Traci says that she journals every single day. She shares that it’s such a safe place in her business. She also sees a therapist, which she says really helps her to let out the emotions that are tough in her life, so she can give more of herself in her family and business.
