In this episode, I break down what I’ve done the past three years in my own business, what I’m doing now, and how you can create a strategy that works for you. Whether you want free visibility or you’re ready to invest, this episode will help you learn how to increase your visibility online.
How I Stood Out Online
In my first two years of business, I promised myself a zero-debt business so I offered a one-to-one service.
“Persistence is the name of business.”
My free visibility strategy for those two years looked like:
- Networking in Facebook groups
- Going live on Facebook weekly
- Hosting online coffee chats
The results of that free visibility strategy were that I:
- Incurred no cost!
- Spent my time networking
- Learned about other business structures
- Understood pain points of potential clients
- Created solutions
- Grew my opportunities like participating in online events and conferences
- Generated $10k/month
In year three of business, I was a guest on 21 podcasts, I spoke on three stages, and traveled to business events. I was super intentional about every event and courageously connected with influencers who introduced me to their contacts and mastermind groups. I also got serious about my content strategy, e.g. posting blogs weekly and emailing my list.
Here’s My Visibility Plan Today
Now in year four of my business, visibility looks like:
- Paid speaking engagements
- Participating in higher-level masterminds
- Growing my email list
- Podcasting
How You Can Increase Your Visibility Online
I strongly encourage you to do what I did to grow my business online:
- Connect with integrity
- Serve
- Listen
- Save money
- Make sacrifices
- Test lots of things
- Optimize and automate what works
“Visibility is a key component to a successful and thriving business.”
