Everything you need to know about Idea Pins and how to use them
Pinterest never fails to surprise us with its new features, and the most recent release has been Idea Pins. Although they’re a new feature on Pinterest, it’s a similar feature to what we’ve seen on other platforms as well. According to Pinterest, Idea Pins are “an evolution of Story Pins”, a feature they beta tested in 2020.
Since video is the new wave of content with platforms like TikTok serving as the stepping stone to other apps falling in line (take Instagram Reels and Video Pins, for example), we’re starting to see more and more popular platforms release their own takes on these loveable features, Idea Pins being the newest rendition of Stories on Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook.
But what about Idea Pins makes it different from its competition, how will it improve your experience on Pinterest, and how do you use them? Keep reading as we answer these questions in this blog post!
Why You Should Create Long Form Content in 2021
You’ve likely heard some mixed things about creating long-form content as a marketing strategy for your business. Some say it’s worth the time, others disagree.
Some people say it’s worth it for SEO purposes-- stuffing a bunch of keywords into some fluff so you can rank higher on Google, and others believe it’s a great tactic of actually engaging with and building a reputation and relationship with your audience.
Of course, we believe the latter… Maybe even a little of both? While it’s a must to make sure your SEO is optimized to help your website traffic and search engine rankings, it’s equally or more important that the content is actually providing value and that your audience will take something away from it.
So, why should you create long-form content in 2021? And what does that word “long-form” really mean?
The Anatomy of a Perfect Blog Post
We know that you're probably hearing every single day how important it is to have a blog. The numbers don't lie, the interaction with your audience is incredible, and the value of what you can give can be a game changer. Blog posts are a way to create evergreen content: posts that are always relevant and that your audience can find useful no matter what.
We also know that sometimes you put off something simply because you don't know the best way to go about getting it done. We want to make sure that you're using each and every post to its full advantage– it takes way too much time to prep those posts for them to not be working for you!
Today, we're breaking down a blog post piece by piece. We'll tell you exactly how your post should be laid out, what to include in it, and how to wrap it all up!
What is an Evergreen Launch + Is It Right for You?
There are numerous ways in the book for how you can structure the launch of your offer, and chances are we’ve tried them all. Part of being a business owner is putting yourself out there and trying new things. Half the time, we’re just throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing if it sticks.
One particular method of launching has been gaining more traction over the years, especially now as more and more people are coming into the online business space (at least one good thing we got out of the pandemic), and that’s the evergreen method of launching.
In this blog post, we’ll be breaking down what an evergreen launch is, different styles of launching evergreen, and how to decide if it’s right for you!
How to Confidently Relaunch Your Offer
We know how much goes into creating an offer, wrapping it up, and getting it ready to officially present to the world, so we’re proud of you for pulling through. Now that you’ve had it out there for a while and have been nurturing your audience, you’re probably coming up on the need to relaunch it.
If you’re like, “Hold the phone! ‘Relaunch?’” Yes! What, you thought you could just launch your product once and that’s it? Unfortunately, as heavenly as that sounds, that’s not a very effective way to keep making money. No need to worry, though, because we just so happen to have relaunched probably more times than we’ve ordered from Starbucks (and that’s saying a lot).
With that said, we want to show you how to confidently relaunch so you can keep improving your offer and converting prospects into buyers!
How to Talk About Your Offer (Without Wearing Out Your Audience)
You inevitably have to constantly talk about your offer in order to keep it top of mind with your audience. After all, according to the rule of 7, someone needs to see or hear your marketing message seven times before they finally purchase from you. That seems like a lot, right?
Well, talking about your offer doesn’t always have to mean you’re directly promoting it 24/7. There are other ways to indirectly promote your offer without driving your people away (because it’s almost guaranteed you’ll lose followers or list subscribers if all you’re doing is selling to them).
Keep reading as we dive into how to talk about your offer without wearing out your audience!
Top 3 Ways We Nurture Our Audience and Get High Conversions
It’s one thing to launch a product or service (Go you by the way!), but it’s a whole other beast to actually maintain that offer after it’s all said and done. You want to make sure no one forgets about your offer and that you’re still tending to the leads that are cold, warm, hot, and everything in between. Otherwise, how would you convert anyone?
A big piece of getting conversions is keeping your audience engaged and providing value, AKA nurturing them. You’re nurturing your audience about 80% of the time, or at least you should be, which means it’s important to find ways and avenues to talk to them that work best. Here at Boss Project, we have three top ways that we nurture our people to increase our conversions, and that’s what we want to share with you today!
