18 leads in 1 quarter vs 1-2 leads before? Yep, that's what happened when AJ Wilcox tried LinkedIn's new thought leadership ads for his healthcare client.Here's what he knew:Client: Healthcare space, huge deal sizesChallenge: Small budget, but each lead is 💰💰💰New strategy: LinkedIn thought leadership adsThe results? Mind-blowing. These ads ran 5-10x better than anything else on LinkedIn, at just 1/5th the cost!These results weren't instant of course.Initial weeks saw ZERO leads,but it started picking up and then BOOM!So, why did it work?Because people engage with other people and not companies.It's all about that personal, relatable feel.The damage? Less than $15k for the quarter. The pipeline generated? Way, way more. 📈Want to know more about this strategy? Check out our latest episode! Hosted by Ausha.

30+ reviews + 2 weeks of sales calls scheduled through 1 LinkedIn post.Well, AJ Wilcox wrote a post on LinkedIn. The offer was simple- to audit ads. But every agency offers a free audit.So…..he did something different. Instead of calling it a free audit, he attached a cost to it.The cost? Leave a review for them.It worked so well that he plans to run it as #ads. And there, you have it:An evergreen funnelIncoming reviewsSales calls booked without any outreachIt took him 3 weeks of prep + 1 busy week of replying to those leads. Plus, the bandwidth of the Sales Head and a marketing consultant to build out the lead magnet and the funnel.Want to get more reviews for your service/product? Listen to him talk.If you have a good offer, I bet you can implement his strategy.Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

95 leads from 15-20 BoFu articles? No one….except @Lashay Lewis.What did @Lashay do differently differently?Spoke to the teams involved in creating these blogs: Product, Marketing, Sales, and CS.Didn’t stop at the blogs. She turned those insights into Comparison pages. (rarely do companies do this)She pulled it with 0$. And no new tool. (Just used @Ahrefs for keyword research)How many people did it take? 2 - just her and another content marketer.Feels too unrealistic? Good, watch the podcast and know her exact process.This episode is for those who think:SEO is deadContent marketing is deadMarketing is dead (and can’t get good leads)Hosted by Ausha.

The most common question founders/marketers ask me: “How to get G2 reviews?”I didn’t have the right answer until this episode with @Nick Bennett.Co-founder of @TACK and @ClubPF He drove 83 #G2 reviews in 3 days at 0 cost!Here’s how:He made a list of users who filled out an MPS survey in the last 90 days.(He emailed 310 folks.I did the math: He got a frickkin 24% conversion rate 🤯)He shot them an email. Of course, no mass emails or AI-generated ones. (The message was very simple and playful.)Yep, that’s it. He waited for people to send him a screenshot of proof. And so many did!This seems too easy to be true. The key here isn’t in the steps but in the nuances.For example, what’s the message you need to send? Can you offer something in return? Should you only target users who rated you highly in the MPS survey?Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

5k/month ad spend = ?? pipelineRyan generated 700k in pipeline 🤯This wasn’t always the case.His client had been running Google ads for the last 12 months.They got 900 leads!Guess how many converted?Then, Ryan (Senior Performance Marketing Manager at Refine Labs) took over.They had a limited budget, so he set up 5 tight campaigns.For the first 3 months, nothing really worked.Then, 5-figure deals started coming in.All through non-branded keywords in Google ads.What did he change?A lot.Things didn’t work.. till something did.In this case, setting up audiences for search worked.He was able to target B2B users much more accurately.Hosted by Ausha.
