"Content, social posts, and ads: these are the tools we can use to grow online sales. And the good news in 2022 is that these tools are getting smarter and smarter." - Georgiana Dearing
Whether intentionally or unknowingly, every small business aims and needs to boost its ecommerce sales. This might not be the natural first step for most small brands, but tapping into online sales will not only expand your reach and give you the opportunity to multiply your profits, but it also help establish your brand’s integrity.
Especially if you’re a niche brand, leveraging ecommerce is both a savvy and strategic approach. It helps you hone in on your audience and lets you find your tribe of loyal customers.
As I rally the three tips for your ecommerce sales strategy, I have my interview with ChipMonk Baking to thank. They’ve highlighted these proven methods to help businesses like them grow online sales.
Listen to this episode as I talk about creating good content for your website using best practices for SEO or search terms, building social campaigns using said content, and promoting the social posts as part of a paid ad strategy.
I hope you’ll have fun while learning as you listen and realize that the only thing tricky with ecommerce is how you spell it (spoiler alert: both ecommerce and e-commerce are acceptable!).
