Now the traffic and the subscribers and the followers and the customers and the sales, that is a result, and it comes from something magical called growth. So really the thing that we need to focus on here is the growth aspect. We get a lot of questions emailed in, how do I get more eyes on my blog? How do I grow my blog Readers? how do I get more page views? How do I grow my Instagram followers? How do I get more likes and comments on Facebook? All these sorts of questions, I get them all the time. We really put a lot of weight on numbers, on our metrics, on how many people are liking our stuff, following our stuff, subscribing to our stuff, and although this is great, it's absolutely amazing when you've got these numbers and you've got this huge, engaged audience, and the thing you're missing here is that the part that really matters is the engaged audience okay, the engaged, the engagement, the fact that people are actually talking to you and interacting with you and not just flicking you a quick thumbs up every now and then okay, it means so much more. Engagement is the key to growth, because if you're putting out content that people love to talk about, if it's starting a conversation, if it's getting people excited, if it's answering a problem and you're getting a lot of reactions from it, be it positive or negative, they're both great because they're both awesome feedback for you to tailor your stuff going forward. That is what is gonna help you grow, okay, that level of engagement, because with engagement becomes more visibility. If more people are looking, going over to your Google, so say you're coming up on Google, you're getting the clicks through, people are leaving comments, people are sharing that, then you're gonna get seen even more easily, okay. Same with social media, if you are on Facebook, and you're putting stuff out, people are commenting, answering your question, starting up a conversation with you, then more people are gonna be shown that content, because their Facebook knows that it's valuable to them, okay. Facebook knows that it's good, and it's got people talking, and that's what they want, they want content that makes people talk, because that keeps them on there, and it keeps them thrilled, keeps them engaged with what's going on. So, let's go back to what the original question of this was, which was about how can I get more blog subscribers? How can I get more followers? How can I grow my Instagram? How can I get more blog subscribers? How can I get more followers? How can I get more sales in my blog business? How can I create these people into money? And the answer is to grow, okay, it is to concentrate on growth. And I know that that seems like a very broad and very like okay Jade, you're telling me to grow, don't you think I wanna grow? Like we're trying so hard to grow, we're putting all the right stuff out there, but we just don't seem to be getting that level of growth. And like I've just said before, the growth comes from when you hit the nail on the head, when you are really talking to the person that knows you are there to serve them, when you're really putting something out that people just desperately are in need of, okay.So take a moment to think about what content are you putting out at the minute? So here's a few tips to help you with this growth part of your business, because with the growth becomes everything else, with growing becomes a much more engaged audience that you can then sell to much more easily, you can convert into money much more easily, and they're gonna allow you to have impact on them much more easily, because they trust you. They're gonna allow you to enter their life with your content and with your products, your services, with your programs, whatever, because they trust you, and they're engaged with you, and they like what you've got to say, they can see that you're gonna help them, okay. So growth is the key, and here's a few things that can help you in this area. Firstly, is really knowing that what you're putting out is speaking to someone, and I know you hear this a lot, oh speak to one person, really get clear on who you're speaking to, and it's a very ambiguous thing to say, isn't it?Get clear on who you speaking to? Well what does that mean exactly? Well what it means is what problem are you solving and for who? And why do they want you to solve it, and what does that look like? So for example, maybe you, I've used this example before, maybe if you're a parenting blogger, and you're reviewing restaurants in a specific area, maybe you're in London and you're reviewing coffee shops where it's parent-friendly, where you can actually get a pushchair through the door, and you're monetizing that by creating a guide, or an app or something that you can have on your phone. Obviously you're talking to mums with children, mums with multiple children are gonna be an even more engaged audience, because trying to get a twin stroller through the doors is even more tricky than getting a single one in. Mums with children that have got different ages, so you go somewhere, and you've got something that they can all sit and do, like the more specific you get about the problem and the struggle and why they want your solution, the more you are talking directly to them and the more engaged they're then gonna be with that. I know if I saw something that said best coffee shops in London to get a twin stroller in, that's gonna get me talking, because that is something that I'm thinking about.I'm thinking oh my goodness, someone's just literally read my mind, I was just thinking today I've been to the cafe, and I couldn't get my buggy through the door, and I just felt so stressed out and overwhelmed, and I ended up having to get a coffee to go, and go and sit at the park, and it just wasn't what I was expecting my day to be. I wanted to sit down for a bit, read my magazine while the kids were doing something. Think about, look at the depth that I've just given you on that issue. That is what everybody has, everybody has different problems at different levels, at different stages, and they want you to offer them a solution in different ways. It's just really getting to know who that first person is, that you're gonna offer this solution to, and how you're gonna speak to them, and how they want it presented, what experience they want to have, okay. So that's the first part, really know that person that you're talking to.The second part to create great engagement, which is gonna lead to amazing growth, is to be where they are, okay. There's no point putting out, one of my pet peeves, and I know it helps people grow, I understand that it plays a part in your numbers growing, what I don't see happen very often is it playing a part in your monetization, okay, and that is going and blogging engagement groups and getting blog posts shared, and you're getting different eyes on them. And I understand for SEO, and for all different reasons it can be really handy to have the extra page views and get the comments and stuff, but let's roll that right back to basics. Why are you putting your blog out there? You're putting it out there to help somebody, and in turn you're gonna monetize, you're gonna have a financial reward for this. So if you are wanting to help someone, that specific person, are you helping them by putting it out to a sea of people that are not related at all to what this person is struggling with? Yes, it may in the short-term help you get that more stretch, that widespread reach, but if it's not a widespread reach in the same people, it's like if I had 20 pink Smarties, and I chuck them into a bowl of all mixed color Smarties right, but I wanted to target the pink ones, and I've chucked them into a bowl of 2000 other Smarties, and there's 20 pink ones in there okay. Or if I chuck that same 20 pink ones in there, alongside another 10 multicolored ones, the concentration of the right people is much, much greater, much, much stronger, and you're not floating about in a sea of loads and loads of other people that really just are irrelevant, don't matter, don't care what you've got to say, and you don't really care to help them, they're not who you're here to serve. Does this make sense?So really thinking about where your people are hanging out, so if you're in Facebook groups, or if you're hanging out on LinkedIn, or maybe you're over on Twitter, or maybe you're networking in person, going to places where you know they are, so that you can communicate with them, and you can show up for them and get their feedback on the stuff that you're putting out, because that is what is gonna really like supercharge you.And that's leading me onto my third tip, which is get the feedback, okay, do the research and get the feedback. Do the research on the people that you are wanting to talk to, that you know you have a solution for, and then get the feedback on what they think, whether they're engaging with your stuff in the first place, whether it's oh my goodness, I never thought about it like that, or whether it's like no, that's completely off the mark, it's not what I'm]]>564c6743e4b05f785a014357:5a747e4f71c10b650e0d6f86:5c9c97964192026512549b8dSat, 30 Mar 2019 06:00:00 +0000Jade HicksSo today I'm talking about traffic, I'm talking about getting more eyes on your blog, getting more views on your content, growing your subscribers and getting more sales, getting more clients, getting more people excited about your blog....

Engagement is the key to growth, because if you're putting out content that people love to talk about, if it's starting a conversation, if it's getting people excited, if it's answering a problem and you're getting a lot of reactions from it, be it positive or negative, they're both great because they're both awesome feedback for you to tailor your stuff going forward.

If more people are looking, going over to your Google, so say you're coming up on Google, you're getting the clicks through, people are leaving comments, people are sharing that, then you're gonna get seen even more easily, okay. Same with social media, if you are on Facebook, and you're putting stuff out, people are commenting, answering your question, starting up a conversation with you, then more people are gonna be shown that content, because their Facebook knows that it's valuable to them, okay.

So that's why I wanted to talk to you today, really. We spoke about consistency yesterday, and how that is really important in your business, it's the key to success. But the struggle and the stumbling block that was presenting itself around actually being consistent, actually carrying out consistency with conviction, and bringing it into your everyday life. So, today, the secret to being consistent, the secret to having all of this stuff in your business, and being effective with everything that you do, is to work on your focus, and really understand what steps, and what actions you take on a daily basis, that are going to make a difference, make an impact, in your blog, in your business going forwards. So, I've broken this down into three top tips, three key areas, really, that, if you can master these places, if you can put your time and your effort and your energy into these things, then your focus is gonna come much, much more easily. It's gonna make it really easy for you to establish what you need to do on a daily basis, to really get clear that what your doing, every single time you're doing something, you're working in your blog business, is gonna make a difference. Three things, the three areas that I believe are the most important, and the things that you really need to work on. Number one is really prioritize. Learning to prioritize and know what is important for you, what is important for your business, what is important for your readers right now. So let's go back to that consistency example that I used yesterday, around knowing what people want you to put out and putting stuff out in a way that your readers actually want to consume it. So, you know, if you wanna put our 15 posts a month, and it's killing you to do that, and your readers only really wanna read one post a week, if that, and they're happy to chill out with you on Instagram Stories everyday, and then catch maybe one main big blog post a week, or it may be even one a month. That's where they're feeling happy. It's really getting that balance of understanding how best to serve those people. And this is the same with the priorities in your business. So, yeah, we've gotta do it all with consistency, we've gotta show up with consistency. But prioritize where your most important things, your most important tasks, lie. So, for example, maybe your priority, right now, is growing your Facebook audience. And to do that, you wanna show up with a really quick video every single day. That is your priority, to get that one video out every single day. That is your priority. Not to put out 20 different posts on Facebook, and Instagram, and Twitter, and LinkedIn, because your focus, because your priority, is within that Facebook audience, right now. Maybe you're trying to nurture a group and get people to move over from your Facebook profile, your Facebook business page, into a group. And that really is where your focus wants to be right now. Get to grips with what your priorities are. And this doesn't just have to be a business thing, okay. Sometimes, in our businesses, in our lives as entrepreneurs, knowing what we need on a daily basis, is also a priority. So, maybe you're a mom, or you're working full time alongside your blog, alongside your business at the minute, and you still need some time for you. You need some time to be able to keep your creative juices flowing, to be able to keep your enthusiasm for what you're doing, and to be able to serve people with 100% of your energy. So, what do you need for you? What is a priority for you? And this could be monthly, weekly, daily, hourly. Whatever feels most right for you, I feel like you need to start taking the time to prioritize what you need and what is most important in your business right now. This leads me nicely on to my second tip, second area, to really narrow in and hone down on your focus. And this is creating a non-negotiables. So, for me this is a practice that I do myself. It's something that I've found super, super valuable in managing my children, my home life, my businesses, everything that I've got going on, and making sure that I'm giving everything, when I'm showing up for it, 110% of me. Because what I was finding was I was spread thin on the ground. I was doing everything. But I was doing it half-heartedly. I wasn't showing up 100%. I wasn't behind whatever I was doing 100%. And that was happening in several different areas in my life. And I see it happen with clients, time and time again, where you're just spread too thin on the ground. So I created something called my non-negotiable list. And what this is, and I actually do this on a daily basis, I do not do this in advance, because I don't know, until I get to that day, what, for me, is gonna feel non-negotiable, what, for me, is gonna feel most achievable, on that exact day. So I stopped putting pressure on myself by doing it in advance and going, well, this is my priorities for the week. We get that all laid and down. This is what we wanna achieve this week. This is where we're going. These are the things that need doing. And this is the overall bird's eye view look at what I've got going on. But this is my non-negotiables. And I will literally get up on a morning and do my morning stuff, and then look at my list, and go, what is non-negotiable for me today? What is the main priorities for me today? What, no matter what, if a meteor hit my office today, what have I got to get done? What is gonna make me feel most lit up to do? And what is the most important step? So, if I've got a big shoot coming up, and I know that there's some shoot preparations that need doing, then that is on the non-negotiable list. If I know that I've got a load of client calls that day, maybe two or three client calls, then I know that getting them calls done and being there for them people is the most important thing. Maybe it's just a day of lots of different marketing activities, and the most important, non-negotiable thing for me is to get on and record you a video like this. Whatever it is, it needs to go on your non-negotiables list. And no matter what, you know that that, even if you're doing it in pockets of time throughout the day, that that is getting done. And then similarly, I have that same non-negotiable list for me too. It doesn't spread into just one area. This list covers every aspect of my life. So if I know that I've got something that I need to achieve with my children, or something that I need to show up to for my children, that day, and that is non-negotiable, then it goes on the list. If I know that I need to go swimming, because I've not been swimming for three weeks, and I need to go and stretch myself out and have an hour in the water, and just give myself that time, then that is gonna go on my non-negotiables list. But, again, remove any pressure from this exercise. It doesn't need to be another thing that you need to do. This needs to be the thing that you do so that you can get the best out of you and remove all the pressure around all the other stuff. The other stuff on the list, other stuff on the priorities, yeah, it's nice to have. But the main things to be going on that non-negotiables list in the morning, so that you know, no matter what happens that day, those are your things to put your focus into fully. And then the third part of this, really cracking down and getting clear with your focus and being able to laser hone it when you need to, when you've just got pockets of time that you're coming in and out of. Maybe you're in and out, in and out from work, and then you're out with your kids, and then you've got all this other stuff going on, you've just got these windows of time, is to be kind to yourself. And that's why I created my non-negotiable list, because I needed to start being kinder to myself, and take off the pressure. But, in order to do that, I've actually got to start being kind to myself. So it's no good doing a non-negotiables list and then beating myself up about keeping to it, and stuff, because I know I've put stuff on there that's just too much to be on my non-negotiable. Yeah, it's nice to have, but my non-negotiables are things that, no matter what, have got to be done that day. It's like these are the, I don't know, like the stake in the ground things that need doing. I can make that list as long or as short as I want. It depends how kind I am being to myself. Which is why I do it on a daily basis, because I know how I feel that day when I get up, and I'm looking at my list, or I'm looking at what I've got going on, looking at my schedule, looking at my calendar, knowing what I've got going on that day, I know how much extra stuff I can take on and how much I can't. And I also know if I'm not feeling 100%. Maybe I just got up and I'm not feeling 100%, I'm feeling a bit tired, and I'm gonna be kind to myself. I'm gonna give myself a bit of time out today. That's going on my non-negotiables list, that I'm]]>564c6743e4b05f785a014357:5a747e4f71c10b650e0d6f86:5c9a589860c91c00016a0413Thu, 28 Mar 2019 06:00:00 +0000Jade HicksHey guys, so today I'm talking about focus.

I know that focus is something that's like this elusive, golden chalice for entrepreneurs. We're always thinking, we need to focus, we need to get focused on what we're doing. And it can be really difficult sometimes just to get motivated, let alone really narrow down your focus and crack on with actionable, and steps that are actually gonna make a difference on daily basis. So that's why I wanted to talk to you today, really. We spoke about consistency yesterday, and how that is really important in your business, it's the key to success. But the struggle and the stumbling block that was presenting itself around actually being consistent, actually carrying out consistency with conviction, and bringing it into your everyday life. So, today, the secret to being consistent, the secret to having all of this stuff in your business, and being effective with everything that you do, is to work on your focus, and really understand what steps, and what actions you take on a daily basis, that are going to make a difference, make an impact, in your blog, in your business going forwards. So, I've broken this down into three top tips, three key areas, really, that, if you can master these places, if you can put your time and your effort and your energy into these things, then your focus is gonna come much, much more easily. It's gonna make it really easy for you to establish what you need to do on a daily basis, to really get clear that what your doing, every single time you're doing something, you're working in your blog business, is gonna make a difference. Three things, the three areas that I believe are the most important, and the things that you really need to work on. Number one is really prioritize. Learning to prioritize and know what is important for you, what is important for your business, what is important for your readers right now. So let's go back to that consistency example that I used yesterday, around knowing what people want you to put out and putting stuff out in a way that your readers actually want to consume it. So, you know, if you wanna put our 15 posts a month, and it's killing you to do that, and your readers only really wanna read one post a week, if that, and they're happy to chill out with you on Instagram Stories everyday, and then catch maybe one main big blog post a week, or it may be even one a month. That's where they're feeling happy. It's really getting that balance of understanding how best to serve those people. And this is the same with the priorities in your business. So, yeah, we've gotta do it all with consistency, we've gotta show up with consistency. But prioritize where your most important things, your most important tasks, lie. So, for example, maybe your priority, right now, is growing your Facebook audience. And to do that, you wanna show up with a really quick video every single day. That is your priority, to get that one video out every single day. That is your priority. Not to put out 20 different posts on Facebook, and Instagram, and Twitter, and LinkedIn, because your focus, because your priority, is within that Facebook audience, right now. Maybe you're trying to nurture a group and get people to move over from your Facebook profile, your Facebook business page, into a group. And that really is where your focus wants to be right now.
