YouTube Marketing: Creating External Links to Your Website

By Rich Brooks 03/07/2013

Have you ever wanted to link to your website directly from within a YouTube video? Then this post is for you.

Dear Rich,

Need More Subscribers? 5 Online Platforms Every Marketer Should Use

By Rich Brooks 03/03/2013

More subscribers = more time for you and better content for your audience. Here’s why.

If your small business struggles to attract the attention of the same ideal customers every day, you need to focus more of your attention on turning readers, listeners and viewers into subscribers.

When you have subscribers, you can put more time into creating valuable content that you KNOW will be seen by your ideal customer, and less time trying to get that content in front of them.

Building a subscriber base is critical to every small business, but platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter don’t give us all the access we need.

Although Facebook gives us fans, Twitter gives us followers and LinkedIn gives us a network, none allow us to create an opt-in that guarantees delivery and visibility.

Only 16% of our Facebook fans see our latest update. An even smaller fraction of our Twitter followers see an average tweet. And some of our LinkedIn connections don’t get on to the platform for weeks or longer.

Building an opt-in subscriber base allows you to better connect and deliver quality content to your audience.

In this article you’ll discover five great places where you can truly develop an opt-in subscriber base of your ideal customers. Keep reading! →
