If you are feeling overwhelmed by marketing trends and the current social media landscape, then today’s episode is for you. Our guest, Andrew Gottlieb, is an expert in digital marketing and joins us to share his insights on essential marketing trends, along with what small businesses need to know and how best to capitalize on current trends in social media.

Andrew has a host of credits to his name, not the least of which is being the Founder & CEO at No Typical Moments, a highly specialized digital marketing agency that serves purpose-driven businesses with a focus on having a positive social impact. He is also the co-author of The Two-Week Notice and has an extensive list of testimonials praising his many years of client work.  

In our conversation, Andrew breaks down the key concepts in social media and digital marketing that small businesses need to understand. He offers a roadmap on how to navigate various subjects, from the tracking issues caused by the Apple iOS14 update to how businesses should respond to the rise of TikTok. He also explains why you shouldn’t commit to a single social platform, the best tools for taking control of your tracking, and why going the extra mile for your client is a fantastic way to define your brand.

While social media has given small business owners more advertising power than ever before, it has also required an entirely new skill set that constantly needs to be updated.

Ready to Take Your Professional Life and Leadership to the Next Level? Become The Most Powerful You!

In reading a great deal about leadership today, and interviewing top leadership experts, I’m recognizing a disappointing trend – that the general concept and understanding of leadership has become so vague and watered down that most of it isn’t helpful at all, and it’s not suited to a majority of women who want to lead differently.

The Most Powerful You training goes deeper. It helps you recognize and understand more about yourself as a person and the leader you want to be, then take empowering, transformative actions to operate in your role in a way that takes your leadership and your career higher, making the impact you dream to. If you truly want to help your team, staff and organization become “The Most Powerful We,” this is the right training for you.

Quotes: 

“For the first time ever, Facebook had a decrease in users to their platform. And there’s new platforms that are emerging, like TikTok that are just more fun to be on. So you just shouldn’t be married to one platform being the be-all and end-all for the next 40 years.” — Andrew Gottlieb [0:07:46]

“What’s happening on TikTok right now is exactly what happened to you (Kathy) on LinkedIn in 2014. It’s really a supply and demand equation that’s going. There’s not enough content creators on the app right now. But the number of users who are downloading TikTok is just skyrocketing.” — Andrew Gottlieb [0:11:34]

“You have a unique moment in time to capitalize on building a follower base on TikTok right now.” — Andrew Gottlieb [0:11:59]

“Rein in your FOMO. And just be aware that eventually over time, Tik Tok is going to have an older demographic.” — Andrew Gottlieb [0:15:46]

“I think when you have a good reputation, you have good branding, and good marketing that’s getting your business out there in a really genuine and authentic manner, it allows the business to come to you versus you having to be on the hunt, going door to door.” — Andrew Gottlieb [0:29:30]
