By Sean Tinney January 29, 2026 Meet Joy Dakinisun – business coach Joy Dakinisun, an online business coach, was getting ready to launch her new website quantumleapwithjoy.com. Most of her energy was focused on getting the design right, refining her messaging, and making sure everything reflected her brand.

No way to book calls or get support. No foundation for turning inte...

Content Marketing Team Dynamics That Deliver Results

As a content professional with almost a decade in the game, I have been a part of several content marketing teams and projects. While each project came with its own objectives and obstacles, one thing remained constant: a consistent underestimation of what a content marketing team achieves for the organization at large. The natural assumption about content marketing teams is that we write a bunch of blogs with some SEO guidelines or create some witty social media posts, and voila, the job is done! As an insider, I have seen firsthand that a solid content marketing team does much more than this. Content is the driver of discoverability for a company, and a solid content marketing team will help you achieve that. The fact that 45% of marketing and media leaders plan to increase their conte...

Unlocking Hidden Revenue: The Inbox Retargeting Methodology

Page conversion rates have ALWAYS been a problem. The simple fact is most people don’t convert even on the most optimized pages.  What’s why traditional retargeting on ad networks has been so dang powerful. While retargeted leads come cheap, they still aren’t free. Worse, you’re back competing against your competition in the ol’ ad auction system.  For the last 6 years, I’ve been using a tactic called Inbox Retargeting to identify who lands on my key pages and directly reach out to them in their inbox.  No more ads. No more auctions. Just a targeted contact that showed they were interested, but didn’t quite take the leap yet.  Before I dive into the “What’s” and “How’s”, this tactic can only be used in the good ol’ US of A. If you aren’t in the states or don’t have clients in t...

How to be a successful affiliate marketer: Growth strategies & tips

By Phil Norris March 28, 2024 Did you know the average affiliate marketer makes just over $8,000 a month? Not bad for a job that lets you work anywhere, set your own hours, and earn passive income.But, as always, there’s a catch: That figure is massively skewed by affiliate marketers with 10+ years of experience, who bring in an average monthly income of $44,000+. Meanwhile, if you’re in your first year of affiliate marketing, you can expect a slightly more humble return of $636 a month. Which probably won’t even cover your bills, let alone fast-track you toward a life of luxury. Still, if you can get through those tricky first two years, the rewards are there for the taking. And we can help you get there by sharing our top tips on how to be a successful affiliate...

How to Use the P.S. in Email

As a copywriting tactic, the postscript (P.S.) has made its way from standard direct mail copy to email marketing copy.

By Kaleigh Moore July 13, 2023 Have you ever sat down to write something and felt…totally stumped?  Ah, yes. It’s the dreaded writer’s block.I know the feeling all too well. Just a few weeks ago, I was sitting at my desk, staring at a blinking cursor, desperately willing it to conjure up the words that seemed to have escaped me. My mind was blank. After hours of torturing myself, I realized I needed a break and decided to do something productive.

This unrelated, mindless task allowed me to step away from the task and cleared some brain space so that when I sat back down at the computer, the words just flowed.

How to Create Content for Instagram that Drives Engagement

By Val Razo July 5, 2023 The idea of using social media for small businesses isn’t new.  According to the State of Small Business Digital Marketing Report, 72% of small businesses invest in social media marketing, and they find social media platforms most valuable when it comes to business promotion and building relationships with customers.But when you run your own business and you have a lot on your plate, it’s nearly impossible to show up on every social media platform.

It’s not because customers loathe getting emails from companies. Or because frequent emails are considered spam.

Why would they open your emails if they can already predict the content inside? Why would they buy now when they can clearly see you’ve got discounts all the time?
