It's costing you more trying to be perfect and cut corners using AI image and video generation.

And it's costing our planet.

Instead of saving you time and building your brand's reputation - you're losing connection with your real human audience.

They're not impressed you prompted a visual that they know doesn't match any of your previous work or skills, and used a mass of clean drinking water and energy because it definitely didn't turn out right the first time.

BUT you do need to edit your videos so they don't have your 10 second setup at the beginning, or 30 seconds at the end when you thought it had stopped recording, but still was 💀

Edit practically for the scrolling attention span, and so we can see you or your products clearly ~

How?

Have you tried Instagram's free Edits app?

I've been using it since it released, and I deleted CapCut altogether since then 👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽

(Also, how terrible is CapCut's updated policies for using your content AND DRAFTS for their marketing 🤮🤮🤮 not happy, Jan)

Let me know if you've tried using Edits - getting stuck on anything? Want to share a draft with me?

Get your small business website, social media and email marketing ready for Black Friday with this quick check through of common issues I see aaaaaall the time on small biz platforms.

These small issues add up quickly to give 'red flag' signals 🚩🚩🚩 to your customers.

They block them from adding to cart, checking out or subscribing to your email marketing because their user experience (UX) ain't easy to click, nor logical to follow.

And we don't want people rage quitting your website from design and technical issues!

Remember, it's not an exhaustive list, so check your own site, socials and email marketing sign-ups.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝟑 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞* to message me will get a short video sent through of what's working, what's not, and exact user experience and issues with their site and socials ~

*Must be okay with me using for education and social media marketing in reels/stories in future ~

I love a good deal on my favourite things 🙌🏽

Small businesses are brilliant with their real specials if they choose to run them for BF/CM 🧡

But keep an eye out for larger mega corps positioning their 'sales':

💸 Use Google's price insights when Google Shopping

💸 has Coles, Woolies and more price checking tools

💸 Keepa chrome extension for Amazon price tracking

Got anymore price checking tools?

Questions I've had about Black Friday/Cyber Monday:

👀 When is it actually Black Friday/Cyber Monday?

Black Friday: Nov 28 (Aus), Nov 29 (US)
Cyber Monday: Dec 1 (Aus), Dec 2 (US)

----

👀 Should I be running Facebook Ads?

If you haven't been testing ad creatives for Meta Ads (Facebook and Instagram) before this month, and this is your first time trying ads - DON'T. This is not the time for you to experiment with ads in a highly competitive (and expensive) ad run time.

----

👀 What kind of Black Friday specials should I be running?

If you want to participate in Black Friday, leaning into your strongest product/service offer is my best recommendation. People don't wait for Black Friday for the seconds stock.

Also, you don't have to participate in Black Friday - especially if it's not part of your brand's ethos and values to do so.

Lean into your strongest organic marketing with your current and past customers/clients. Serve them well, again and again. Reitereate your stance on BFCM. Strengthen this communication and connection to strengthen customer loyalty.

👀 What are you grabbing in Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales?

There's been early sales for furniture and bathroom renovation services already, so we're focussing on doing up our new home ~

So, are you waiting for a specific Black Friday deal???
