"Building Your Brand: Visibility Strategies with Anna Jones
What's your why? sometimes this can be a difficult question to answer but one I think is key to understand before you start showing up as the face of your brand. My guest this week Anna Jones - Visibility expert helped make this more accessible by asking yourself what is the impact that you want your product to have on your customer. What do you want it to do for them, this goes much deeper than the features and the benefits of the products. In this week's episode of Start Scale Succeed I chat with Anna about how you can be more visible in your brand and some of the areas to understand before you do that. Some of the topics we chat about are Building brand recognition
Prioritizing direct customer interactions
Effective use of social media and email marketing for improved visibility and engagement.
Creating a strategic marketing plan
Developing a mission and vision that truly reflect your "why" and value proposition.

Katie shares her Rocks, Pebbles and Sand planning framework and the email frequency to build up to before Black Friday. She also covers the benchmarks worth tracking, four types of email that sell at full margin without a discount code, and a simple Instagram giveaway that moves your followers onto your email list. If you sell products online and want this Christmas to be your best yet, watch this before you plan another email. In this episode: How often to email in the run-up to Black Friday: add one extra send a week, building to two or three emails a week at least by Black Friday weekend. Why simple wins: postcard-style emails with one idea and one button, and plain-text follow-ups from the founder to cut through the noise. The numbers to watch: a 40–60% open rate, a click rate of 1.5–2%+, and when your unsubscribe rate says it’s time to stop and rethink (over 0.5% means investigate, over 1% means stop). Four types of email that sell beyond the discount: Curriculum (how-tos, gift guides, FAQs), Coaching (“this or that”, gifts by budget), Community (reviews, UGC, founder letters) and Conversion without a code (low stock, back in stock, last order dates). How to grow your list fast before Black Friday: run an Instagram giveaway with a comment keyword using Klaviyo’s free Auto Replies or ManyChat. Store credit is the best prize. Why Black Friday should start earlier: run early access lists and one- to two-week sales, and never change your offer once it’s live. Q4 tweaks for abandoned cart and browse abandonment flows: shorter time delays, sale banners and an easy way to contact you. https://www.katiefarrell-econsultant.com/klaviyo-flow-starter-pack https://www.instagram.com/itskatiefarrell/ https://www.katiefarrell-econsultant.com/ 💡Listen to the start scale succeed podcast here for more tips to help you start and scale your product business https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/start-scale-succeed/id1577771045 🔥 DON'T FORGET to follow me on instagram from lots more tips https://www.instagram.com/thebuyerandretailcoach/ ❤️ Enjoyed this video?

From Spray Tanner to Global Beauty Brand: Jules Von Hepp on Building Isle of Paradise, Showing Up and Knowing When to Leave Jules Von Hep spent 10 years as a celebrity spray tanner. His clients included Strictly Come Dancing, the red carpet and Vogue. Then he spotted a gap no one was filling. The result was Isle of Paradise, a colour-correcting self-tan brand that went into Superdrug and Boots and then out to Sephora in the US and Australia. In this episode, Jules tells Nicole how a founder with no product-development background built a global brand by leaning on his expertise and partnering with people who knew what he didn’t. He explains why he believes every product founder should be a front-facing founder. He also talks openly about deciding to leave the brand he created and what comes next, including his new book, The Confidence Ritual. In this episode: How 10 years in the treatment room became the brand story, and the formulation knowledge, behind Isle of Paradise Why partnering with Future Beauty Labs let him stay creative and play to his strengths Why your customer wants to see you, and why social media is your shop front Protecting your face and your identity when you know an exit is coming How to tell when it’s time to leave your own brand, Advice for starting out: stop chasing the perfect sample. 85–90% is ready. Advice for scaling: widen who your customer is, test limited editions and see what sells
