If you’re still relying solely on written reviews and polished product pages to earn trust, you’re playing the marketing game on hard mode.
The modern buyer is skeptical. Overloaded. Ad-blind. They don’t want your sales pitch—they want proof. Not vague, scripted claims. Real people. Real results. Real emotion.
Let’s call out the giant social elephant in the room: mastering the social media game isn’t just about creating great content—it’s about knowing exactly what works best. But there’s one massive challenge marketers often face: how do you test multiple video versions without being penalized by platform algorithms?
If you’ve ever used the words branding and marketing interchangeably, you’re not alone. But here’s the truth:
Branding is why. Marketing is how.
Short-form vertical video is no longer a “nice to have” for small businesses—it’s the fast lane to attention, engagement, and action.
Whether you’re promoting a local service, hyping up a new product, or just building brand awareness, vertical video gives you a powerful way to connect with your audience where they spend most of their time—scrolling on their phones.
Imagine offering a customer a product that’s 1% fat. Now imagine offering that same product and saying it’s 99% fat free. Which one would they choose?
Easy. The second one.
Same product. Different words. Dramatically different results.
That’s the magic of the Framing Effect — and if you’re not using it in your marketing yet, you really should.
Let’s face it—webinars can be a game-changer for your marketing efforts. Done right, they can boost your authority, generate high-quality leads, and convert prospects into loyal customers. But here’s the catch: without the right promotion strategy, even the most valuable webinars can fall flat. So, how can you ensure your next webinar fills virtual seats and exceeds your expectations? Follow these eight powerful strategies to take your webinar attendance from average to amazing.
Let’s be honest: The old way of doing social media? It’s toast.
If you’re still treating Facebook like it’s 2015, or posting random links hoping they’ll magically bring in customers, you’re wasting your time.
Every business dreams of having a marketing consultant who not only understands their needs but anticipates them. If you’re stepping into this role or looking to elevate your consultancy game, you need more than just marketing savvy—you need to build rock-solid client relationships and deliver value that consistently exceeds expectations.
Let’s break down exactly what separates an average consultant from an exceptional one, inspired by two top-performing marketers recently featured on E112 of Five Dubs: Marketing Pros, highlighting them as finalists for the MDDC Press Association’s Salesperson of the Year Award.
Let’s be honest—most marketing content is boring. There, we said it. It’s filled with jargon, predictable CTAs, and stock images of people giving thumbs up in conference rooms. If that’s your brand vibe, you’re not just blending in—you’re disappearing. But guess what doesn’t blend in? Humor.
