"It is hard to make content and post consistently" Trust me, I've been there. But not anymore. Busy schedules make posting feel impossible. But you need consistent posts to grow your brand, right? But, you keep delaying... No plan. No content. Your profile stays silent and loose opportunities But what if you could simplify this? I learned the hard way but let me make it easy for you. I've shared below the exact solution which can help you. Bonus Tip: Put efforts in meaningful engagement and DMs too. They're a game changer for sure 🙌🏻 Case study in comments.

Yeah, we all got this! When I started the all-fun and hell-of-a-ride kind of marketing career, I thought that it would take time to hit on banger creative fun marketing ideas. But then I realized it keeps on taking time till you not jump into it. The more you keep on researching various ideas, campaigns, and creative inspo you're kind of always stuck. Over the past few years, I have discovered the way out of this loop. "Just break the core of the campaign, look for a bit of inspo, and add your creativity to it (mostly the first crazy idea that hits your mind🌟🚀). Don't give it too much time. Set deadlines for research, finalizing, and the action day." If you think you can't do this, get out and try! I bet everything will fall into place once you just start. **leaving it here for all creatives starting and the ones close to burnout. 😅 graphic credit: Mark P.

4 years ago, I was clueless about advertising. Today I run a 7-figure eCom agency. 12 things I'd tell my younger self about advertising success: 1. Testing is the rule of the game. 2. Learn from other people's mistakes. 3. Patience and persistence always pay off. 4. Hire for mindset over skills. 5. Master social media algorithms. 6. Build genuine connections and trust with clients. 7. Fail fast and often. 8. Obsess over customers surveys, feedback loops, analytics. 9. Celebrate small wins to build momentum for bigger ones. 10. Hire specialists to complement your expertise. 11. Focus your energy on strategy and creativity. 12. Invest in high-quality creative assets and templates. Excited to know your thoughts on this, respond below. 👇

I'm onboarding a new marketing leader to grow Keyplay Here's the (anti) advice I gave him... 1.) Go broad. We can sell to everyone. Embrace the spray and pray mindset. Don’t prioritize or segment — just do more activity! 2.) Ignore your sales team.  They aren’t smart so don’t listen. Treat them like a coin operated machine that is unrelated to your work. Don’t worry about their complaints or opinions. 3.) Form committees.  Make sure all decisions about positioning, pricing, brand, and voice are consensus driven. Definitely design the website by committee. 4.) Attribution over everything. Don't worry about doing marketing. Obsess about attribution for at least 6 months, before anything else. 5.) Stick to the common playbooks. Don’t take creative swings. Just do what every other marketer does. Use all the same playbooks, channels, and tactics. 6.) Gated is great. Obsesses about MQLs. Gate every piece of content. Don’t worry about brand building or demand creation — just get those form fills! I’m having fun putting this list together for Eric. What would you add? #marketing

I only work for 4 hours everyday. But during those 4 hours, I get more done than people manage to in a week. Because I've created such an optimal routine.

Here's a Sunday thought to reflect on: What motivates you? Yeah, you have a job to do. It's not always easy. But money aside, what makes you wanna do it above other things? In storytelling, this is your motive. Everyone has this: it's what drives your actions. You probably have lots, since we're not book characters. In digital marketing, it's no different. The audience we market to have motives for what they do with their time and why they do it. Down to where they shop, where they spend their time, and how they spend it. Yes, you have to think about what your audience wants. But ask yourself why they want it and what drives them to want it. And don't forget to ask yourself why you're doing what you're doing. You can't put yourself in people's shoes if your shoes have holes in them! And because I love to hear this stuff from you guys, what made you decide to start a career in marketing? (PS: Stay tuned for my Monday post where I'll be presenting my visual identity project!)

After 3 months of running my agency, I’ve gone from 0 clients to 2 in just 1 week. It’s been a steep learning curve. Here’s where I stumbled: ➔ Chasing the wrong clients ➔ Feeling too nervous on calls ➔ Pricing myself out of the market ➔ Offering things I wasn’t confident in Here’s what I’ve shifted: ➔ Focusing on testimonials & case studies ➔ Adjusting prices for the right portfolio ➔ Targeting clients I’m excited about ➔ Delivering high-quality work This shift has let me bring passion to my outreach, And clearly shows the value I offer. It’s just the beginning. P.S. What’s a recent change you made that paid off?
