Why not switch things up a bit? I’m tossing my interviewer hat to Kylie, the manager for the Goal Digger Podcast, and she’s putting me in the hot seat. Getting interviewed always brings out stories I’ve never thought to share, or methods and strategies that I’ve never revealed before. In this episode, Kylie will take us back in time to my early days, when I was fresh on the full-time entrepreneur scene, still gaining my footing, and riding the learning curves alllll the way to right now. If you want to know how I invested in myself at the beginning, which early days marketing strategies I still use right now, and which of my business fears actually came true… Keep listening.GOAL DIGGER FB COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER SHOWNOTES: https://jennakutcherblog.com/myearlydays/

379: New Ways to Serve Your Email List in 2020
This episode is NOT about ways to sell to your list. We’ve all heard the stats about how every $1 spent on email marketing, about $44 is made in return. We KNOW that email marketing is the way to sell and see big profits, and I have tons of content that covers how to do that well. But one of the keys to success in selling to your email list actually has nothing to do with selling or introducing your offer.It’s those in-between seasons, when you’re not in a launch or pushing a new offer, that you form strong bonds and lasting relationships with your list by serving them. And yet, so many people forget about their list until they have something to communicate about a new product or offer and there’s some sort of urgency in making a sale.Let’s get into the 4 main different formats for serving your email list and being a valued resource in their inbox, not just another salesperson. C’mon and jump in with me!GOAL DIGGER FB COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER SHOWNOTES: https://jennakutcherblog.com/serveemail/

378: What is an Integrator and Do You Need One?
Each time I make a new hire for my team, I think to myself: “HOW did we survive without this person?” This sentiment is especially true when it comes to Marisa Vittoria, my Integrator. Pre-Marisa, we were all honoring our own workflows, existing in a constant loop of Google Docs and Slack messages, and seeing what we’re capable of now… We were definitely not reaching our fullest potential. What does an Integrator do and do you need one on your team? And how can you be your own Integrator and establish systems to get your business achieving more? I’m so excited to formally introduce you to Marisa, but admittedly nervous for her to reveal the systems we didn’t have in place before she joined our team. Hey, it’s all in the spirit of helping YOU learn from where we’ve already been.GOAL DIGGER FB COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER SHOWNOTES: http://jennakutcherblog.com/integrator/

375: This is Why No One is Seeing Your Content
When I was just starting out, I blogged Monday – Friday for YEARS… And while it’s admirable or even shocking, looking back those blogs weren’t really doing much for me. In fact, they were sucking up my time and not getting me anywhere closer to my goals. I’d share a new blog post once on Facebook, and then move on to creating the next. It wasn’t until I started creating content with intention and a plan that I started to see REAL results.The solution isn’t creating more and more and more. It’s not spending the majority of your time willing your creative juices to crank out just a few more sentences that hopefully *fingers crossed* make it in front of a potential client… The solution is tied to a simple purpose behind each piece of content you push out.Results don’t just come from a little call-to-action at the end of your blog post. They come from creating with intention, certainty, and confidence, and you can do that when you have a plan. This episode shows you how.GOAL DIGGER FB COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/goaldiggerpodcast/GOAL DIGGER SHOWNOTES: http://jennakutcherblog.com/createcontent/
