If you've ever tried advertising on Facebook or Google, you know how hard it can be.
And confusing. And expensive.
Most of the time, your ad will be seen by a total stranger.
If they detect even a HINT of advertising … POOF! They're gone.
Let me make this clear:
You absolutely can market to total strangers on social media.
It just takes a different approach.
Keep in mind:
- They don't know you, and don't care about you.
- They only care about understanding their problem(s).
- They hate advertising.
Today's audiences are fickle and impatient, but you can engage them by showing them content that:
- Gives them value in a short period of time
- Focuses 100% on them and solving their problem
- Doesn't try to sell anything!
