    274. 3 Things I Wouldn’t Put on Your 2027 Marketing Plan (Yes, Including Substack)

    Can you believe it’s already November AND 2027 is just around the corner. And you only have to open Instagram to be reminded of this fact! Between the 2027 marketing predictions, business planning workshops and everyone sharing what they're doing differently next year, there's no shortage of advice about what you should be adding to your marketing strategy. But before you add anything just because you think you should or because some guru who doesn’t know you or your business told you that you should – you need to figure out what’s actually going to help you make more sales.  And this is something I've seen firsthand after completing 30+ personalised messaging and marketing audits over the past few months. And one thing these audits have reinforced is just how easy it is to spend time and money on marketing activities without knowing whether they're the things that will make the biggest difference to your sales. So in today's episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, I'm sharing what I would NOT automatically put on your 2027 marketing plan, what I'd recommend instead and how to decide which marketing strategies are actually worth prioritising. So let’s get into it. SIGN UP FOR THE OBVIOUS CHOICE FUNNEL BOOTCAMP Before you start that Substack account – spend three days with me inside The Obvious Choice Funnel (17–19 November).  We’ll find where your leads are dropping off and what they need to hear before they buy, so your 2027 marketing plan is built on what’s ACTUALLY going to bring in sales.  Tickets from $27.  Sign up at https://thesocialbolt.com.au/bootcamp/  WANT MORE?

    273. Why Your Ideal Clients Aren’t Buying (Even When They’re Interested)

    One of the most frustrating things is knowing you already have Beyonce-level, dream clients in your world – but they’re not buying. Even though they have a problem you can solve, they want the outcome you help create and they’re already paying attention and giving all the right signs that they’re interested. But here’s the part I think a lot of business owners miss. Just because someone is a best-fit client doesn’t automatically mean they’re ready to buy. One of the biggest assumptions you can make is that if someone is interested, they already have everything they need to make the decision. But interest and readiness are two very different things. They can know what you do, want the result and still have unanswered questions, doubts, or not enough reason to prioritise the offer yet And your marketing has a really important role in helping them get there. So in today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, I want to talk about why your best-fit clients still aren’t buying from you, and what your marketing needs to do to help them feel ready to make the decision. SIGN UP FOR THE OBVIOUS CHOICE FUNNEL BOOTCAMP Want to know what's stopping your dream clients from going from interested to ready to buy?  That's exactly what we're working on inside The Obvious Choice Funnel Bootcamp.  You'll learn how to build a customer journey that moves people towards buying, so you're making the most of the leads already coming into your world.

    272. The Visibility Trap: When More Visibility Is The Right Problem To Fix (And When It Isn’t)

    Visibility is one of the biggest shiny objects in marketing. Because everywhere you look, you’re being sold MORE – more reach, more followers, more views, more traffic, more leads, more people coming into your world. And because those numbers are easy to see, they can very quickly become the thing you focus on when sales aren’t where you want them to be. So you assume you need a bigger audience, or that if you could just get your offer in front of enough people, the sales would follow. And sometimes, that is absolutely true. But sometimes, a lack of visibility is blamed for a lack of sales when the real problem sits somewhere else in your marketing. So in today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, I want to talk about the visibility trap – when visibility is genuinely the thing you need to fix, and when chasing more visibility is distracting you from the actual problem Let’s get into it.

    271. If I Audited Your Marketing Today, Here’s What I’d Look For First | Why Your Marketing Isn’t Working

    I spend a lot of time observing, auditing and creating marketing for both myself and my clients.  My days are spent immersed in all things marketing – whether it’s strategy or execution.  I know where to look when things aren’t working, what to do next when they are and how to apply that across different industries, business models and offers. So I know my stuff. I’m not one of those people who tells you the only way to be successful is to follow exactly what I do.  I’ll always tell you what you need to do to be successful in a way that works for you, your business and your goals.  And right now that matters more than anything else because we have an avalanche of marketing gurus who are sprouting advice that’s serving absolutely no one except for themselves.  Because while the gurus get richer, the people who help them make that money are wondering why it’s not working for them. And that’s because they don’t really know marketing outside of what’s worked for them.  So in today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast I’m going to take you through what I would actually look at if I audited your marketing today, and what each part would tell me about where the real problem might be.

    270. Your Q4 Marketing Plan: What Your Marketing Needs to Do Between Now and Christmas

    It’s officially Q4, which means we’ve somehow reached the part of the year where a lot of business owners suddenly realise there are only three months left to hit the goals they set approximately 84 years ago in January. And because Q4 is traditionally a big selling period, this is usually the point where the pressure starts to ramp up. There are launches, promotions, Black Friday, Christmas campaigns and a whole lot of noise about how to get more reach, more eyeballs and more sales before the year ends. And yes, your marketing absolutely should help you make the most of the buying opportunities happening right now. But I think there’s a second job your marketing needs to do between now and Christmas, and this is the one a lot of business owners overlook. It also needs to help you build a stronger customer journey going into 2027. Because I KNOW you don’t want another year where you’re STILL relying on constant content creation to keep your marketing moving. So that’s exactly what I want to unpack in today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast. How to build a Q4 marketing plan that makes the most of buying behaviour now AND uses the next three months to build something stronger underneath it. Let’s get into it.  WANT MORE?

    269. Creative Launch Campaigns: How to Make Your Next Launch Stand Out with Kelsey McCormick

    IMAGINE if Beyoncé launched an album the way most online business owners are launching their offers right. “Hey guys, my new album is available now.” Followed by a couple of Instagram Stories, a countdown sticker and a handful of emails before deciding to disappear off the face of the earth because “I couldn’t possibly talk about my album anymore without pissing people off”.  And look, Beyoncé could probably get away with it. But sadly, you’re NOT Beyoncé and you’re launching into a market that’s more skeptical, more distracted and being served more content and offers than ever before. So simply announcing that your offer exists and hoping people buy it probably isn’t going to cut it. What Beyoncé does brilliantly (and what so many of the best brands do brilliantly) is create an entire world around what they’re launching. There’s an idea behind it. A story. A visual identity. Teasers, collaborations, activations and moments that build anticipation long before anyone is asked to buy. And THAT’S the juicy conversation we’re diving into today with the launch campaign wizard herself, Kelsey McCormick. Kelsey is the founder of Coming Up Roses, where she helps creative entrepreneurs build businesses, launch offers and make more money without turning themselves into someone they’re not. Before starting her own business, Kelsey worked in the music industry creating marketing campaigns for artists and festivals, so she brings a very different perspective to launching than the usual online business formula In today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, we talk about what actually makes a great creative launch campaign and why the future of launching is less about following a formula and more about creating something people actually want to be part of. So if you've got a launch coming up (or Black Friday is already on your calendar) grab a notebook, because this one's for you. Let’s get into it.

    268. How to Sell in Q4: What You Need to Know About Buyer Behaviour

    We’re on the cusp of the busiest sales period of the year. So if you’re planning to sell anything between now and the end of the year, there are a few things you need to understand about how people actually make purchase decisions at this time of year. Because Q4 changes the environment your buyer is making that decision in. They’re not only looking at your offer and asking whether they want it. They’re also seeing Black Friday deals, Christmas spending, other business investments, new offers launching and approximately 50,000 emails a day telling them they need to buy this life-changing offer before midnight. This means your marketing has to do a better job of showing them why your offer matters, why it’s worth the investment and why it makes sense to choose it now. That’s exactly what I’m breaking down in today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast. Because if you want Q4 to be your most profitable quarter yet, you’re going to need more than simply sending more emails, adding another bonus or slapping 30% off because that’s what everyone else is doing for Black Friday. You need to understand what’s driving buyer behaviour and what that means for your Q4 marketing strategy. So let’s get into it. WANT MORE?
