Did you know that Facebook has over 200 million active users in the United States alone? Add in Instagram and WhatsApp (which are both owned by Facebook) and you can basically triple that number.
There's an old idea in business that says you need to be where the people are, and it's safe to say that the people are on Facebook. So how do you leverage that audience? The answer is a funnel.
In today's episode of Traffic Makers, Rachel explores the process of creating Facebook funnels and how they can help connect you with your perfect people.
You'll learn why every business needs to have a Facebook funnel active in order to make the process of selling and serving your customers easier, and how it can help you spend less on ads.
You'll discover the five steps to creating a Facebook funnel, including creating content that qualifies buyers and crafting your offer.
You'll learn that social media is far more than simply an "advertising channel," and why interacting with your audience is far more important and effective than simply broadcasting to them.
You'll also learn why the businesses with the most engaged customers are the most successful, not necessarily the ones with the biggest ad budget.
Join Rachel as she guides you through the process of creating a Facebook funnel and helps you connect to your audience more effectively.

Have you fallen out of love with your business?
Every business has its ups and downs, and there's often a point where you feel like the excitement has faded. You've worked so hard for so long, and burnout starts setting in.

In today's episode of Traffic Makers, Rachel explores this common, if not entirely pleasant, part of running a business.
Through the example of a local donut shop, you'll discover the reasons why business owners occasionally become irritated with their customers, start seeing their content as uninteresting and even forget why they went into business in the first place.
You'll learn how your feelings of burnout and irritation are felt by your customers, from less-than-ideal service to the sense of being "chased for a transaction," and the effects that can have on your business.
You'll discover a practical exercise that will help you fall in love with your clients all over again and even find new ways to serve them.
Join Rachel as she helps you navigate the ebb and flow of your business so you can get back to what you do best.

By now you're aware of Apple's revolutionary app-tracking transparency policy, but what does it mean for your business?
Prior to Apple's new policy, ad tracking was done by default on devices such as the iPhone and a user had to opt out of tracking. Now on the iPhone, users have to opt IN to tracking - it doesn't happen automatically. For businesses that rely on ad tracking and retargeting, this is a seismic shift, and, some would say, a disaster.
However, there is a silver lining.
In today's episode of Traffic Makers, Rachel explores Apple's new policy and the effect it will have on businesses.
You'll learn how app tracking currently works in the online world and how it can be both a positive user experience... and a not so positive one, all at the same time.
You'll discover what's involved in Apple's new policy, as well as the real world effect it's having on businesses and advertising.
You'll learn why "every change has a silver lining" and how you can leverage these new changes to not only "survive" but thrive.
You'll also learn why Apple's policy could actually create new opportunities for businesses to connect with their customers in more meaningful ways.
Join Rachel as she helps you understand how the world of online advertising is changing and how you can use it to grow your audience and business.

You'll discover why it's essential to provide the right signals to your audience and the Facebook algorithm to ensure that your content is appearing in their feed.

Should you create more content or better content? The answer is yes ...and no.
Confusing? In this episode of Traffic Makers, Rachel explores the classic question of "quality vs. quantity" in relation to social media content for your business. It sounds confusing, but not when you realize that content creation strategies are often as unique as the businesses they're designed for.
You'll learn the difference between a quality strategy (less content / specific audience) and a quantity strategy (more content / broader audience.) Rachel will share stories of two of her students - entrepreneurs who used these entirely different content creation strategies to massively grow their businesses.
You'll discover why building an audience for your business with content is very similar to... dating! You'll also learn how the type of product or service you're selling (high ticket/low ticket) can determine the strategy you use to create engagement with your perfect people.
In the world of content creation, the quality vs. quantity debate isn't really a debate at all. Both strategies have their place depending on your business, your product and the audience you're trying to reach.
Join Rachel as she helps you determine which strategy is best to create growth and engagement among your audience.

What happens when your business has a huge audience, but not enough sales?
You've seen them online: influencers with millions of followers and massive engagement. You'd be forgiven for thinking they must be making a huge profit from such a huge audience.
What you may not realize is that many of them don't have solid businesses that can leverage that engagement and turn it into profit. For many, this begs the question, is there any point in building an audience in the first place?
The answer is yes, but only if it's done correctly. In this episode of "The Traffic Makers," Rachel discusses the reasons many entrepreneurs fail to make the best use of the audience they've spent so long building.
You'll learn the three issues that prevent businesses from turning millions of fans into millions of customers, and why it's so vital that your product is seen by your "perfect people."
You'll discover that the reason you're not selling your otherwise amazing product or service is likely a problem with your messaging, as well as the reasons why, for some businesses, a small audience may actually be more profitable than a huge one.
During this episode, Rachel will also introduce you to the customer journey - the path a person takes as they evolve from "stranger" to "customer."
Join Rachel as she helps you learn how to match your amazing product or service with the right people and the right messaging.
