How’s business? Do you have enough clients? And, are they your ideal clients?
Previously, we might have advertised to sell our services and attract clients. Today, with the rise of the internet, how we buy things has changed. Mostly, we ignore advertisements. We know they’re biased.
Instead, we seek out information from experts willing to share their ideas and opinions. They’re using an approach called Content Marketing. The aim is to educate, inform and assist people in their buying decisions. They know that if they help enough people some of them will buy from you. And, if they like your ideas and the way you think it’s more likely you’ve attracted a potential ideal client.
Your Three Challenges
The first challenge of Content Marketing is what to create. You might ask:
• Write : What should I write about?
• Know : What do my clients want to know?
• Listen : Why should anyone listen to me?
The second challenge of Content Marketing is which platform to create and share your ideas:
• Blog : Should I write a blog?
• Email : Is email marketing dead?
• Video : Do people like to watch video?
• Webinar : What’s a webinar?
• Podcast : Is a podcast effective?
• Social Media : And, what about Facebook, Twitter and Linked In?
The third challenge of Content Marketing is how to create this information consistently and creatively over time. You might ask:
• Ease : I’m already busy! How can I do this quickly and easily?
• Outsource : Should I create this information myself or should I ask someone else to help me?
• Share : How often should I share my ideas and opinions?

How it Works…

• Two sessions : The program runs in two 3 hour sessions, one week apart – it’s short and specific.
• Live : During this time there’ll be live virtual presentations so you know you’re getting the most up to date information.
• Question Time : And, we’ll leave plenty of time for to ask all your questions to personalise your learning.

• Email Access : Plus, you also have email access to the presenter for 28 days after the second session to ask any other questions. We want you to learn first, implement second and achieve great results.
Who Should Attend…
This Masterclass is best suited to:
• Leaders : Consultants, speakers, trainers, coaches and experts willing to stand up and be market leaders.
• Client Focus : Business people with a focussed attention on what works for their clients

Who should not attend…
This Masterclass may not suit everyone. It’s expected that you will:
