Crafting Marketing Messaging That Actually Converts
If you’ve ever poured your heart into marketing content—only to hear crickets—this episode is a must-listen.
This week Elli and I break down what really makes marketing messaging convert. No fluff. Just real talk, real strategies, and real results.
I open up about my own marketing missteps and the exact mindset shifts that helped me turn things around. Together, we dig into the three biggest reasons your content might not be landing: mindset blocks, missing strategy, and messaging that just isn’t hitting home.
On this episode you’ll hear:
- The most common messaging mistakes beauty business owners make (and how to fix them)
- How to identify your actual ideal client—and speak directly to them
- What it means to “speak to pain points” without sounding pushy or salesy
- Real-life examples of posts that got major traction and booked out calendars
- A behind-the-scenes look at my new program, Booked, Banked, and In Demand
If you’re ready to stop guessing and start connecting with content that gets clicks, clients, and conversions—this one’s for you.
✨ Press play and start crafting messaging that works for you, not against you.
