Listen Later

Think social media is the only way to grow your business? Think again. 

In this episode, Amanda C. Watts shares how she built her business using offline strategies; networking, speaking, writing, and personal outreach. Learn how to establish authority, gain high-value clients, and create long-term business growth without relying solely on social media.

Key Takeaways:

Direct Outreach Builds Trust : A well-crafted email or personal phone call can open doors that no amount of social media engagement can.

Community Involvement Strengthens Brand Visibility: Sponsoring events, running workshops, and engaging in local media create deeper, trust-based relationships.

Leverage Existing Client Relationships: Happy clients are your best marketing tool; referrals and testimonials can boost credibility more than any ad campaign.

Public Speaking Establishes Authority: Speaking at industry events positions you as an expert and creates immediate trust with potential clients.

Writing A Book Expands Your Reach: A book showcases your expertise and serves as a long-term marketing asset for attracting clients.

Podcasting Builds A Loyal Audience: Engaging with listeners regularly helps create deep connections and authority in your industry.

Your Story Is Your Greatest Marketing Tool: Authentic storytelling helps you stand out, resonate with your audience, and build trust.
