Side Hustle Spark 307: Digital Marketing in 2022 [Neil Patel]
Check out Neil’s tips on dealing with digital marketing in 2022 and beyond.
How to differentiate yourself and your products/services?
Tip #1: There’s too much content. Use steps. Use data. Give a fresh perspective.
Tell your own stories. If you can’t offer a fresh perspective, don’t add the content.
Tip #2: Refresh/update your past content.
Tip #3: Add an influencer. ‘Influence’ is here to stay. It may cost you, but it’s worth exploring.
Tip #4: Add upsells and downsells.
Tip #5: Use multiple channels. “Take an omnichannel approach.”
Here’s hoping your bank accounts in 2022
will be saturated as well.
Best of luck!
