That’s because organic growth is slow, it takes a lot of time to find and win clients.    ➥ Acquisitions offer advantages such as gaining access to an established customer base, utilizing existing systems and processes, and leveraging the expertise of the acquired management.   ➥ As your small business expands, your offerings should initially focus on a niche market, gradually growing alongside your company.

This is your chance to learn from the best in the digital marketing space, tune in now and get valuable insights! Episode Highlights   03:34 How to create a ‘Content Strategy’? 06:35 Is AI going to replace search engines? 12:41 How to make Ads work? 14:53 “Dollar-a-day strategy” 26:47 Mentorship and mindset 34:30 What do billionaires have in common? 42:25 Check out more of Dennis Yu Key Takeaways ➥ For content strategy, Dennis suggested that online business owners can create personal stories, reviews, and podcast (which are compelling, relatable, and captivate the audience). Then, use AI tool like Chat GPT to enhance their content. ➥ If you have content that’s already working well organically, you can repurpose it for other channels or use it as Ads. Repurposing content allows you to extend its reach and maximize its impact by adapting it to different formats. Furthermore, using successful content as Ads can help you capitalize on its effectiveness and target specific audiences. This approach enables you to make the most of your well-performing content and increase its visibility across different marketing channels. ➥ Dollar a day strategy is a cost-effective approach to advertising. This means putting a lot of pieces of content, testing them for a dollar a day for a week. The key idea behind the "dollar a day" strategy is to leverage the advanced targeting options and reach specific audiences with relevant content. By allocating a small budget daily, advertisers can continuously test different variations of ads, targeting parameters, and content formats to optimize their campaigns and achieve desired outcomes.

Rather than viewing AI as a standalone answer to all challenges, Jaryd suggests leveraging it as a complementary tool alongside human expertise.   ➥ People tend to trust and believe content that is created by experts in their field.

People often think that managing and growing a blog is simple and easy, but the reality is quite different. Many bloggers fail to monetize and grow their blogs for a number of reasons.  For today’s episode, I have invited a special guest, Aisha Preece to share with us her winning strategies for content websites to make money online.  Aisha Preece is the founder and owner of side hustle website OutandBeyond.com, as well as 5 other blogs. She has a great passion for SEO and teaching others how to drive thousands of visitors to their new websites, but she also believes in monetising using alternative monetisation strategies, such as workshops, and a variety of digital products.  We had a wonderful discussion on the following: Why did she start blogging and trying to make money online? What is her process of making more money through her blogs? Is it ads or affiliate products or both? How does she grow her email list and sell them awesome products they want? And how she hires writers and how you can do the same for ANY niche website? We also discussed how often she publishes content and what that looks like? How to create typical authority for a content site? She also shared her experience in buying two blogs. And what she learnt through the due diligence process? If you think your blog is underperforming, maybe it’s time to ditch your old strategies and try a new one. Catch this episode and get to know Aisha’s secrets for her content websites to make money online! Hit the ‘Play’ button!   Episode Highlights   04:00 Why Aisha got into blogging? 11:02 Aisha on managing a portfolio of websites 14:28 Blogs of different niches 15:16 How do blogs make money? 17:34 How to sell digital products? 23:48 Is great content enough to grow a website? 36:32 How often should you upload? 41:26 Where to buy sites from? 44:44 What Aisha learned through due diligence? Key Takeaways   ➥ Aisha have tried different side hustles in the past but she got into blogging because it offers her the freedom to work from anywhere, choose her own schedule, have autonomy, and choose people to work with. ➥ Successful website growth is often mistakenly assumed to happen quickly for everyone. However, people overlook the fact that those who have achieved rapid growth have also experienced failures and gained valuable experience along the way. Building a website takes time, effort, and learning from both successes and failures. It's important to understand that failure is a part of the process and provides insights for improvement. Behind the success stories are countless hours of hard work and perseverance. By embracing failure and valuing the learning process, individuals can set realistic expectations and increase their chances of long-term success. ➥ Having great content alone is not enough for a successful website. It's equally important to have an attractive design and fast loading speed. A visually unappealing or slow website can deter visitors and hinder user experience. Design and performance optimization are crucial for engaging users and keeping them on your site. About The Guest Aisha Preece is the founder and owner of side hustle website OutandBeyond.com, as well as 5 other blogs.

Is A.I. going to take over people’s jobs and businesses? Is this the end for online businesses?  In this episode, William Griffin and Jaryd Krause discuss this debatable topic about A.I. and robots, and how people can adapt to this technological innovation and use it to their advantage.  Jaryd Krause is the founder of Buying Online Businesses (BOB). He is an expert on buying and growing online businesses, who now also helps take people with no online experience to buying and growing their own online businesses. With a decade of experience, Jaryd’s strategies have generated millions of dollars in revenue for his clients.  William and Jaryd had a conversation about business valuation and noticing trends in the online business industry. How is getting information from the news different from getting news from people you know? They also talked about the cooldown in the market and whether we are in a buyers' market. Jaryd shares an example of lower multiples. He even shared his thoughts around the pivotal change he sees when it comes to buying an online business -  Are affiliates in or out?   Lastly, Jaryd shared when and how to use A.I. (and if you should)? The myth of the solopreneur and how relationships in and out of business lead to a successful life in ALL areas.  Are anxious about the A.I. takeover in the online space? Check out this episode and find out why the answer to A.I. and robots are people and relationships! Episode Highlights 2:22 How to determine the fair price for an online business? 13:01 Staying up with industry trends 21:42 Balancing work execution and discovering new things 28:32 Using AI to complement work 31:42 First actions after buying a website 32:25 How important are people and relationships? 42:57 Knowing your audience Key Takeaways ➥  When considering the purchase of an online business, it's important to approach the process with a comprehensive due diligence plan. The first step in due diligence is to conduct a thorough examination of the online business's records. This will help you understand the financial health of the business and ensure that it is a viable investment. Another important step is understanding where the market is at.   ➥ Jaryd's suggestion highlights the idea that A.I. should be used to complement your already existing workflow, rather than replace it entirely. While AI technology has the potential to improve efficiency and productivity, it is not intended to replace humans.    ➥ Jaryd explains the importance of relationships both in life in general and in the context of buying an online business.In life, relationships play a crucial role in our personal and professional growth. When it comes to buying an online business, relationships are also important. Building relationships with the business owner, employees, and customers can provide valuable insights into the business and its operations. These relationships can also help build trust and credibility, which are crucial when negotiating a sale or dealing with any issues that may arise during the transition.   About The Guest Jaryd Krause is a serial entrepreneur who helps people buy online businesses so they can spend more time doing what they love with who they love.

His work has been featured all over the internet including Ahrefs, Empire Flippers, Niche Pursuits, Side Hustle Nation and much more.  Doug is also a Project Management Professional, and the creator of the KeyWord Golden Ratio, and is a master at Internet Marketing and Course Creating.

He thinks that AI will not be the end for content sites but rather make things more efficient.    ➥ Doug suggests that Chat GPT can be a useful tool for content creation because it can help identify areas for improvement in an article. This includes identifying gaps in the article, addressing potential objections that readers may have, and identifying frequently asked questions that could be included to make the article more comprehensive.   ➥ Doug thinks that while AI-generated content may be useful in some areas of content creation, such as generating written content or providing data-driven insights, it may not be as effective in creating audio or video content. This is because people are still drawn to human connection and the personal touch that humans can bring to content creation. For example, many people prefer to listen to podcasts or watch videos where they can connect with the host or presenter on a personal level.  About The Guest Doug Cunnington is a gun in the SEO industry.
