Marketing - Websites That Work
Manage episode 418017707 series 3154733
In this episode, Andy and Joel discuss the changing landscape of marketing strategies and the importance of providing value to customers. From the necessity of case studies over testimonials to the significance of websites in the digital age, they explore effective ways to engage and inform potential buyers. Plus, they dissect the current AI trend, emphasising its eventual integration as a commonplace tool.
BEST MOMENTS
- ‘A testimonial is not good enough anymore. Use a case study, or better yet, a video case study. We’re in a place where nobody believes anything, so using a testimonial without any data behind it, it’s better than having nothing, but it could be a lot better.’
- ‘Don’t blog unless you intend to give significant value. Think about the key terms that you want to rank for, and what the main action a lot of people are taking at the moment is.’
- ‘AI is trendy at the minute but eventually, it will just become a tool for people, much like the internet.’
