Let's jump into today's topic: using your analytics to set your future SMART goals.
In 2023, we surveyed over 900 retail business owners in the craft space. One of the most shocking data points was that only 14% were collecting marketing data — and even more shocking, only 4% were using that data to inform strategy.
Whether your shop is physical, virtual, or a blend of both, this episode is your blueprint to transforming that space into a community-building, customer-magnetizing powerhouse.
Today we're diving into a topic that has completely reshaped modern marketing—influencer and content creator partnerships.
Today we're exploring how to scale your brand using digital advertising—yes, the kind that doesn't have to feel like throwing spaghetti at the wall.
So whether you're boosting posts or venturing into more advanced ad strategies like programmatic or geofencing, this episode is your incantation for attracting, converting, and scaling.
