Side Hustle Spark 307: Digital Marketing in 2022 [Neil Patel]

December 27, 2021 / TMH / Leave a comment

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!

HubSpot chimes in with links to 27 marketing podcasts.

Should be interesting for you to:
— Track down new ones that speak to your specific needs.
— See which ones you already follow, kind of a pat on the back for being–literally–tuned in.

Some that piqued my interest:

My First Million

The Digital Marketing Podcast

The Market Your Genius Podcast

Happy Listening.
