Om Podcasten

We spend each month focusing in on one marketing method - maybe Email or SEO or Google Ads or Facebook Ads. In our weekly episodes, we go deep into a different area of the marketing method we’re focused on, with a guest selected because they are an expert in their field AND because they have a specific tactic or approach you NEED to know about. That means for the whole month you’re getting ideas about ONE THING, and you can focus your optimisation time along with us on that one marketing method. - This month = Omnichannel Expansion - Next month = Online Advertising Previous topics you can listen to right now: SEO, Email marketing, Black Friday, Facebook Ads, Marketing Foundations, Content Marketing, Organic Social Media, Google Ads, TikTok, & Improving Conversion Rates You can hear a new episode for free every Wednesday. Each episode lasts about 30-45 minutes and is audio only. AND at the end of each month we also have a Live Q&A webinar where you get to ask your questions of our guests. >> Sign up for the next one here: https://keepoptimising.com/webinar/ I look forward to helping you keep optimising your marketing very soon!
