March 27, 2023 Is NextDoor or Alignable a Better Marketing Platform
https://fastmarketingminute.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/3_28_23_Fast_Marketing_Minute-Is_NextDoor_or_Alignable_a_Better_Marketing_Platform.mp3
Retail clients ask this question a lot. Which platform should I use in my marketing? NextDoor or Alignable? Here are some thoughts.
NextDoor and Alignable are both local social networks designed for businesses, but they differ in their target audience and features.
NextDoor is a neighborhood-based social network
Residents can connect with one another, and local businesses can reach out to potential customers in their area. It’s a great platform for businesses that serve a specific neighborhood.
Alignable is a professional networking site
It’s geared specifically towards small business owners. It allows businesses to connect with each other, network, and share recommendations, referrals, and advice. Alignable also offers a directory of local businesses and a search function, so it’s easier for customers to find businesses they’re interested in.
So, is NextDoor or Alignable better for your business?
That depends on your goals and target audience. If you’re a small business owner who wants to network with other small business owners and connect with potential customers, Alignable is a good choice. If you’re looking to reach out to a specific neighborhood or community, NextDoor may be a better answer.

March 21, 20235 Marketing Tips to Get More Testimonials
https://fastmarketingminute.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/3_22_23_Fast_Marketing_Minute-5_Marketing_Tips_to_Get_More_Testimonials.mp3
Want more customers? Ask for more testimonials – they’re social proof. Want some marketing tips? Reviews are so important to build your business.
Here are 5 marketing tips to get more reviews
Timing is key – Wait until you’ve given excellent service or received a positive experience from your customer. Don’t ask in the middle of a problem.
Personalize your request – Ask your customer or client to mention specific details about the service they received to make the request feel more personal.
Be sincere – Be genuine in your request and let them know how much you value their feedback. If it’s good, that’s awesome. If it’s bad, say thank you for letting me know. That’s an area for improvement.
Make it easy – Create a simple and straightforward process for leaving a testimonial, whether it’s through an online form or email. You can even have an iPad at the counter or have someone follow up the next day. The point is to remember to ask.
Be polite and patient – Give customers time to leave a testimonial and never pressure them. They’ll write a bad review instead!
Most importantly, remember to ask for the testimonial, just like you ask for the sale.

February 14, 2023 What’s the Difference Between Digital Marketing and Digital PR?
If you’re wondering what’s the difference between digital marketing, digital PR and social PR, stay tuned.
Ok let’s get some marketing and public relations definitions straight here.
Digital Marketing
Digital Marketing refers to the promotion of products and services through digital channels, like search engines, websites, social media, email, and mobile apps. These are the channels you’re probably using every day to market your business.
Digital PR
Digital PR is the use of digital media to manage and build your online reputation and image of your brand or personal brand. It’s about creating and sharing content, engaging your community and influencers, and managing online crisis communication. Oooh, better be prepared for that. Don’t give your social media keys to just anyone!
Social PR
Think of it as a subset of digital PR. Social PR focuses on leveraging social media platforms to build your brand reputation and engagement. It involves creating and sharing content, enhancing engagement, and again – the necessary management of online crisis communication — specifically on social media channels.
There’ll be no quiz here, but I just want to make sure you understand the differences between digital marketing, digital PR, and Social PR.

October 10, 2022 4 Ways Keyword Research Can Drive Marketing Strategy
Want to optimize your search engine ranking? Look at keyword research to improve your marketing strategy.
Write a Topical List
Begin with a keyword list that describes your business. Say you’re a dentist. Start with services you provide like “Cosmetic Dentistry,” “Dental Checkup,” “or “Dental Cleaning.” Search engines consider the searcher’s location when they display websites, so if someone nearby is typing these keywords, you have a higher chance of showing up.
Use Tools of the Trade
Keyword tools like SEMrush can show you how often people search for specific keywords, giving you an idea of which ones are worth including on your website. If there’s high volume on certain keywords, it means there’s lots of competition.
Longer Keywords Go a Long Way
Websites like 1800 Dentist will probably have a higher keyword ranking than your local dentist. To rank higher, use longer-string keywords like “Dallas Cosmetic Dentistry” or “Oral Surgery in Dallas” so your website appears in more relevant searches.
What’s Your Intent?
Knowing how your customers think is half the battle when you’re crafting SEO strategy. If it’s back to school time and summer is over, more people may schedule a dentist appointment. Use the intent of your customers to your advantage by providing content that will target their predicted keywords

September 26, 20225 Strategies to Improve Your Marketing Plan Framework
Want to know how to build a better marketing plan and win more customers? Look at the marketing framework to see if you’re on target. Here are some tips to help you get there.
Let’s talk about what it takes to improve your marketing plan framework.
Market research is more important than ever
Research counts whether you do it yourself or outsource the task. Without it, you’re throwing darts at a wall. Think of it as a deep dive on your brand and your competition. It gives you insights that may be surprising.
Study the competition
Invest time to research the competition from every viewpoint. What do you like about their messaging or style? What weaknesses seem obvious – and what might yours be? Write a detailed overview of your brand’s five top competitors, including apps, too.
Identify your target audience
It sounds like a no-brainer, but basically, you’re on a discovery mission. What can you find out about your target audience’s behaviors and attitudes? Where do they hang out, what do they read, and what groups do they belong to? Don’t waste money or time on ineffective targeting.
Develop a marketing plan timeframe
Timing is always a challenge and execution of your marketing and PR strategy requires careful scheduling and delegation of task assignments, and attention to details to hit key deadlines.
Follow your mission statement
A mission statement crystalizes the purpose, motive, and vision for what your brand or company stands for. Ultimately, it gives customers an opportunity to understand who you are, what you do, and how you can help them.
