SUMMARY: In this episode, Tracy Brinkmann discusses two common marketing mistakes that can prevent new marketers from being successful: failing to understand technology and being overwhelmed by it, and not having a clear target market. He offers tips on how to avoid these mistakes and be successful in marketing your business online.

 

Tracy explains that new marketers often make the mistake of focusing on selling their product, rather than on who they are as a person. This is a mistake because people are more likely to buy from someone they know and trust than from someone who is just trying to sell them a product. Tracy goes on to say that successful online marketers focus on building relationships with their customers and on providing value, rather than on selling a product.

 

In order to build a successful business, it is important to focus on selling visitors on joining your email list, rather than purchasing your product. It is also crucial to continually follow up with your subscribers from day one in order to nurture relationships and sell products.

 

Tracy discusses how to use email segmentation to connect with your audience and build a relationship with them. He also discusses how to tag your audience based on what freebie they signed up for, so you can better understand what they're interested in. Finally, they talk about how to customize your message and products to your audience so they're more likely to be interested in what you have to say.
