And I use email and conversion copywriting and lots of other things to help them figure out how to create a more engaged audience.” 2:33 - Typical symptoms that clients do before reaching out to Kimberly: “So, for a lot of people, you know, they've met somebody or someone has found them online and they're really eager to work with them. But then they don't really know what to say to these people. So, they kind of are sporadic with sending out their messages. When they do send out emails, they noticed, like, after that first message, suddenly the open rates really dropped to like, you know, 8%, 9%.” 3:53 - Common mistakes that people make before they find Kimberly’s solution: “So, a lot of my clients, they approach it as, from a place of fear where they're like I'm afraid to send out because I think people are going to unsubscribe or I think I'm going to get low open rates.” 4:59 - Kimberly’s Valuable Free Action (VFA): “Craft a welcome series. That is a series of four to seven emails that are very specific to guide people through who you are, what you do, and how you help them. So, each little bit you're going to, it's a ready-made purpose made set of emails." 5:52 - Kimberly’s Valuable Free Resource (VFR): Check out Kimberly’s Guide: http://www.theaudienceconverter.com/giveaway 6:55 - Q: How is your marketing different from anyone else is?
