“I knew when I started that I was building a brand, a podcast, and the Business Fabulous Academy. ”

-Bonnie L. Frank 

 Many online business owners have seen value in podcasting, but overlook key areas when they begin.

I also knew I would start the Business Fabulous Academy to help online business owners learn how to create their own profitable businesses.

Podcasting is a great way for your ideal clients to get to know, like and trust you. In this episode. I share how to attract those clients and grow your business.

Get all the key strategies you need to keep your target audience participating and excited to come back for more pf your Clubhouse rooms!

 "Clubhouse is for meaningful conversations and creating meaningful experiences for participants; keeping your audience top of mind is the key."

~ Bonnie L Frank

In today’s episode I discuss how to host Epic Clubhouse rooms that your target audience can't wait to return to. You can gain a following on this audio-only app, find your ideal clients and position yourself as an expert in your field.

Posting on social media is easy. Creating social media posts that consistently get engagement can be more difficult.

 “You want people to engage, you want people to stop their scroll, that is your goal.

Your goal is to stop the scroll. ”

-Bonnie L. Frank

It really isn't difficult to post on social media...It's not the posting that is difficult but getting engagement from your audience. If you're new to social media, you might be wondering why some posts do well and others don't. What does your target audience want to see from you?

Social media really is for being social and that is something that digital marketers need to keep top of mind. They need to remember the 80/20 rule where you provide 80% valuable content and 20% of the posts include a call to action and possibly a mention of something you have for sale.
