A Marketing Lesson From My Daughter
marketers to shame.
Last night, as we're watching the series finale of 24, she's typing away on
her Macbook. I ask her what she's doing. She tells me she's writing up a
review of the show.
"But it's on right now. WTF?"
"I do it real time so that when the show ends, I just click publish and I'm
the first one listed when people go to look for a review."
This is a girl who never read one marketing book, but figured out that, "Hey, if I'm the first site up about something, I'll get listed first and people will
read my blog."
Turns out she's been doing this for a ton of shows for a long time and
gets tons of visitors to her blog.
Imagine if she actually took the time to monetize the darn thing. She's
got nothing on it...nothing. Just excellent content about tons of shows.
She gets like 30 uniques a day...with ZERO marketing skills or tactics
other than just being FIRST.
What's my point?
If a 21 year old "know-nothing-about-marketing-guidance-counselor-to-be"
kid can get 30 uniques to her blog a day...
WTF is YOUR problem with all your marketing smarts, books you've read
and money you've spent on who knows what, that you can't get a freaking
visitor to your site?
News flash. My daughter is living proof that getting traffic is NOT hard.
Getting regular readers is NOT hard.
And yes, if she cared a frick about the money, making money is NOT hard.
A marketing lesson from my daughter.
