As a startup founder, you may think that you need to have a lot of capital available in order to build and implement an effective marketing strategy for your new venture.However, while having money is certainly helpful, it is entirely possible to craft a marketing strategy that requires minimal spending and yields worthwhile results. The key is to have the right goals in mind and know which tools can be the most effective in helping you achieve those goals.- Set goals for your marketing effortsMany startup founders may be under the assumption that they need to “do marketing,” but don’t have a clear idea of what that even means or why they are actually doing it. This approach to marketing is not only ineffective but also leads to wasted time, energy and resources. With that said, knowing (...)

The need to run ads on Facebook is pretty much universal at this point.Therefore, you need to optimize and go beyond the basics.Better targeting. Compelling creatives. Hidden tricks, that work.If you are already running ads on Facebook but want to exceed your results, I’ve got good news for you. In this post, I’m going to share my crucial trick for fine-tuning ads to maximize ROI.With that, let’s dive right in!I noticed that I was starting to receive conversions from my ads after a post had gained some number of social proofs (likes, comments, shares). One day I saw a Facebook post of Bells Machining: firewood processor. It was extremely popular, but the page was brand new. So, I started researching different Facebook ads, their pages, comments and people who commented there.Weirdly, (...)

For most small business owners on Instagram, creating and launching effective Instagram Story Ads still seem overwhelming and out of reach. How to shoot the Ad? How do you launch the Ad? How much money should you spend? How do you know if it’s set up correctly? I had the same questions when I began my Instagram Story Ads journey too but, don’t worry, although they can be a deeply complex science, there are also ways for anyone to create them quickly, simply, cheaply and effectively.In my case, after being shown the ropes by the always-sharp Finn Thormeier, I was able to reach over 4.3 million people on Instagram, grow over 4K followers, increased my website traffic by 100% (year to year), and earn over $450 extra dollars in sales with a budget of only $462 in a month.I make a living from (...)

“…in an information-rich world, the wealth of information means a dearth of something else: …the attention of its recipients.” (Herbert A. Simon, Professor Carnegie Mellon University, 1971)There’s a new, better way to browse the #internet: the Brave Browser.Image taken from the Brave homepage.The Brave Browser operates on a principle I’m calling the Digital Attention Economy. As Professor Simon pointed out in 1971, the world is flooded with information, but human attention is a finite resource. Capitalizing on that resource has been every corporation’s objective, and we’re all familiar with the advertisement deluge that ensues. It’s overwhelming. Now, there’s a better way.With attention, security, and privacy in mind, CEO Brendan Eich (creator of Javascript and co-founder of Mozilla) and CTO Brian (...)

While we are in the midst of a fairly long crypto winter, activity from all directions have slowed down. The ICO and STO markets are simply not as hot as they were back in 2017–2018; investors are sceptical about investing into ICOs and STOs.Because of this situation I want to start this post as a discussion about how to divide your marketing efforts if you are trying to raise funds for an ICO/STO. Is it good to go public with ads or personal outreach or are institutional investors the only option right now?Well, I asked the owners of top crypto media platforms what they think (This topic is part of the #10kqachallenge series — where I’m interviewing experts in different innovative fields.

(And maybe delete FB altogether)Image courtesy of PixabayIf you work at a nonprofit, chances are, social media drains you. Social media drains pretty much everyone these days. It drains you of energy, time, attention, and, for nonprofits, precious financial resources.As my Executive Director likes to say, “any nonprofit is always six months away from oblivion.” My meager three years of experience in the space agrees with this maxim — the end is always in sight, the work is never finished, and everyone on Facebook needs to know about it if your organization is to survive. At least, that’s the message that Mark Zuckerberg wants you to hear.Despite the rosey picture the media has painted of Facebook ads in the past, news continues to pile up that illustrates just how bleak the future of digital (...)

Imagine a world where you never saw an unsolicited online ad again. What if the only way to see an ad was to explicitly opt-in? What if you stopped being the product and truly became the customer?Today’s internet economy is mostly built on top of a basic premise: when a service is free to use, it usually means that the revenue is earned by making your personal data a commodity. Advertising is the most common (and easy) way of using your personal data to make money. 2018 was a year filled with online privacy issues. A lot of people found their personal information exposed, and I like to think that many started taking their own privacy and data more seriously. I was one of these people.Currently, users get bombarded with ads as they navigate through websites or use online services. These (...)

On May 25, 1961, the then President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, set a national goal: perform a crewed lunar landing and return to Earth. After several historic attempts, his goal was achieved on July 20, 1969, when Apollo 11 commander Neil Armstrong stepped off the Lunar Module’s ladder and onto the Moon’s surface.It took 8 years of relentless effort, sacrifice, persistence and finance to land a man safely on the Moon.While there’s no comparison between the effort behind a rocket and a #startup, pictures like the following are quite common:And when I look back at the years gone by, it all makes sense.

Can Facebook Tell Us Which Asian Country Is Most Crypto-Crazy?As a marketer in the crypto/blockchain space, I’m fascinated by how similar and yet different crypto #marketing and “traditional” digital marketing are. I’ve been particularly interested in the reaction in Asia to the crypto craze, so when Facebook threw a few bucks in free #advertising credits my way, I thought: “How can I use Facebook to test crypto interest in Asia?” With that goal, I promoted a recent article about decentralized exchanges — “The Paradox of Decentralized Exchanges: Many Projects, Few Users” — targeted at 18+ year olds in China, South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, Taiwan, Philippines, and Myanmar, and who show an interest in cryptocurrency as a topic.Facebook (...)

Online content began available for free, and as the web grew we tried to find a way to pay the creators, and for many years that was #advertising.Like many things that initially seemed like a good idea, we took advertising too far, and now readers are bombarded with flying, swooshing, obnoxious attention-grabbing boxes coming from all angles.Naturally, those interested in privacy, battery life, or plain old peace and quiet reacted and started using tools to block advertising. So much so that it’s estimated that 30–40% of users now use some form of ad blocker.Blockers don’t solve the content creators initial problem: getting paid.

Browser Mining : An Effective Revenue Generation Alternative to AdvertisingAdvertising revenue is an important income source for the internet domain; even tech giants like Google, Yahoo, Baidu, etc., rely on it. Advertisement mediums such as premium-posting, pop-ups, banner spaces, sidebar ads, etc., generate commissions via click-through rates or sales. However, these advertisements come with a fair share of pitfalls. The revenue generated from ads is considered intrusive and adversely impacts the overall user experience, resulting in higher bounce and dropout rates. Websites that become too dependent on these ads end up losing visitors and potential customers. Below are some more critical setbacks of generating revenue through online advertisement.Impacts the Viewing ExperienceWhen (...)

Several multi-billion dollar corporations that account for ad revenue have done away with all advertisements related to Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) and token sales. #facebook, in hot water amid a congressional hearing with Chief Zuck, probably felt the need to become Congress’ ultimate fawners and issued the first ban in January of 2018.

That’s not an absolute certainty, but it’s a practical, extreme likelihood, which is enough to make collection a problem.— Richard StallmanI agree that collecting data on people can have unintended bad consequences. However, banning the practice of data collection would effectively ban targeted #advertising.
