SEO. 36 00:04:04,803.33333333 --> 00:04:13,563.33333333 This reason why I love SEO the past couple of weeks, I have been dealing with some chronic illness and I was able to step back in my business. 37 00:04:13,563.33333333 --> 00:04:22,233.33333333 But guess what, what I noticed my SEO is picking up more momentum and I'm constantly attracting new leads onto my email list. 38 00:04:22,263.33333333 --> 00:04:24,693.33333333 Based upon the work I have already did. 39 00:04:24,963.33333333 --> 00:04:27,483.33333333 And over the summer, why my little ones are out. 40 00:04:27,513.33333333 --> 00:04:29,313.33333333 I'm not trying to go hot and heavy. 41 00:04:29,583.33333333 --> 00:04:35,973.33333333 I'm just going to maintain that momentum by working on my SEO strategies, preparing to Eva for the next level. 42 00:04:36,273.33333333 --> 00:04:36,633.33333333 All right. 43 00:04:36,723.33333333 --> 00:04:47,493.33333333 So when it comes to attracting your ideal clients, you have to be very specific on the key words and key phrases that you're going to utilize, especially for black Friday. 44 00:04:47,763.33333333 --> 00:04:57,393.33333333 If you want to increase your online traffic and start early now we're optimizing your website, your content, your keywords related to black Friday. 45 00:04:57,603.33333333 --> 00:05:00,723.33333333 So you're sure that you start ranking higher on the search engine. 46 00:05:00,843.33333333 --> 00:05:02,193.33333333 You have to have that clarity. 47 00:05:02,613.33333333 --> 00:05:07,293.33333333 You have to have that clarity on how you want to rank with those keywords. 48 00:05:07,373.33333333 --> 00:05:10,853.33333333 to ensure that people can find you, right. 49 00:05:10,973.33333333 --> 00:05:21,323.33333333 There's no point of getting to September or even October and start talking about your black Friday deals as a coach, you got to learn how to be proactive. 50 00:05:21,453.33333333 --> 00:05:24,423.33333333 And so my people who sell in physical products. 51 00:05:24,693.33333333 --> 00:05:45,153.33333333 Listen, this is your time now to increase your revenue in your business By starting now So when it comes to your black Friday SEO strategies, when you start building that momentum now is going to allow the search engine to go ahead and index your actual website, start ranking your content. 52 00:05:45,333.33333333 --> 00:05:50,523.33333333 So you can start moving up in that positioning you probably going to start off somewhere between a. 53 00:05:50,793.33333333 --> 00:06:00,333.33333333 25 to 100, but your goal is to try to get to a position one to 10 before black Friday, a approach. 54 00:06:00,603.33333333 --> 00:06:02,883.33333333 This is a low term strategy. 55 00:06:02,913.33333333 --> 00:06:13,503.33333333 This is a low term approach to ensure when black Friday arrives, your website is already well-positioned to attract and convert customers. 56 00:06:13,833.33333333 --> 00:06:18,333.33333333 And you have already built in the funnel on your website. 57 00:06:18,483.33333333 --> 00:06:20,193.33333333 This is not something that you can wait. 58 00:06:20,313.33333333 --> 00:06:22,863.33333333 A month out and then try to implement. 59 00:06:23,73.33333333 --> 00:06:25,443.33333333 And one thing I would tell you would be great. 60 00:06:25,623.33333333 --> 00:06:37,303.33333333 It start attracting and trying to retain your ideal clients now about targeted them through content, for black Friday, by tailoring your content to address these specific needs and pain points. 61 00:06:37,603.33333333 --> 00:06:44,233.33333333 And this targeted approach, not only going to attract more qualified leads, but it's also going to increase the likelihood of convergence. 62 00:06:44,473.33333333 --> 00:06:56,263.33333333 And then you also need to start thinking about that loyalty program that you already have in place as well, especially if you have a referral process, if you have a point process, when it comes to your products and services. 63 00:06:56,563.33333333 --> 00:06:57,733.33333333 That's so important. 64 00:06:57,763.33333333 --> 00:07:09,943.33333333 Early preparation is going to allow you to engage with your audience through blogs, emails, social media campaigns, you got the building excitement and sense of patient for your sales. 65 00:07:09,973.33333333 --> 00:07:13,63.33333333 One thing that I always say marketing is not selling. 66 00:07:13,93.33333333 --> 00:07:15,283.33333333 Marketing is just getting the visibility. 67 00:07:15,493.33333333 --> 00:07:19,963.33333333 Your sales process is going to be totally different from your marketing process. 68 00:07:20,113.33333333 --> 00:07:25,903.33333333 So engaging your audience ahead of time is going to allow you to build loyalty. 69 00:07:26,143.33333333 --> 00:07:31,33.33333333 And also positioning you as the go-to expert for their coaching knees. 70 00:07:31,213.33333333 --> 00:07:42,673.33333333 So when you start your black Friday SEO strategy, now is going to ensure that you maximize your visibility, outperform your competitors, and attract and retain your ideal client. 71 00:07:42,853.33333333 --> 00:07:45,913.33333333 they're people that are searching for a coat. 72 00:07:46,633.33333333 -->
