Dream Leads Digital Marketing

A quote from one of my mentors Lester Levenson ... love to hear your thoughts on this

15/11/2024

We ran ad campaigns in September for 2 properties on the West Coast and generated ...

64 new genuine enquiries in less than a week for one property with an average CTR (click through rate) of 22% (anything above 2% is considered good)!

Total ad spend across two properties for 2 weeks was $493.21 with a cost per lead of $6.67.

We achieved a reach of 15,554 and 33,183 impressions.
If you know the metrics like I do, you will know that these are outstanding results!

We see many businesses throwing thousands of dollars at campaigns that are not able to provide the same results we achieved.

But how do we know these leads were good?

There were 74 enquiries spread across 2 weeks of campaigns for 2 very different properties.

The agent we were working with knew how to make the most of an opportunity.

He sent out 4 emails to all of the leads. 68 of the 74 people emailed are still on the agent's email list - that’s 91% - great retention!

He emailed those leads with a new property that just came to market.

50 of those people opened his email within 24 hours - That's 73% - Industry standard open rates are approximately 37% across a longer time period (An open rate of 20% across a range of industries considered good)
Source: https://blog.hubspot.com/sales/average-email-open-rate-benchmark

At least 15 of those people who opened the email clicked on the property to view more details - That’s a 30% Link CTR.

Long story short … The leads generated through Facebook and Instagram were still interested in properties he had on offer …
We may have met some leads earlier on their customer journey, others were actively looking and had missed the properties we presented to them on the usual real estate sites …

… Nothing like opening a new door.

How many more listings will you get?

How much faster will your listing sell if you have more people asking about it?

How much happier will your vendors be?

Right now we are offering a 14-Day trial of our services for only $500 plus ad spend.

So if you’re ready to go from stressed, struggling to get more clients and riding a cash flow rollercoaster …

… to consistent quality leads, filling your appointments and cash flow certainty in your business ...
.. without using all of your own time.

Here's how it works ...

What we do is run Facebook lead ads for you using a tried, tested and proven system.

Our system targets your ideal client, attracts them to you and presents your unique and compelling offer to them.

We’ll drive highly qualified leads into your business for 2 weeks without using all of your time and only pay $500 plus the ad spend

You get to “test drive” our services for 14 days, and then decide to keep it or not.

Today I was reminded of the Golden Rule my family instilled in me growing up ... It is something I still aspire to everyday.

When I was young thought it meant that if someone did something mean it gave you the right to do the same ...
.. but that only perpetuates hate - it's the opposite of what this saying means.

It means that for all circumstances and experiences we have we should always treat other people the way we would like to be treated in the same situation.

I wonder what would happen if everyone applied this golden rule?

First lead came through 2 hours after turning the ads on for Digga Drain Ltd.

This is the fastest time I have had a lead through after launching the ad. Can't wait to beat that time! 👍😊

Is your social media marketing working for your business?

If not … why not 🤔… and what platforms are you using?

According to a recent Forbes article, Facebook remains the most used social media platform online … even with TikTok’s growing popularity.

This means Facebook still presents a huge opportunity for marketers and advertisers.

Organic reach has been decreasing on nearly every platform, as paid social media advertising increasingly becomes a must-use strategy for reaching your target audience.

But maybe you have already tried paying for ads on Facebook and you didn’t get the results you were after ☹️…

… you are not alone …

☎️ … I talk to business owners everyday who have had the same experience ...

So what are a few steps to consider for both your organic posts and your paid advertising?

✅ Identify your target audience 👉

✅ Do your market research and see what your competitors are saying 🧐

✅ Ensure you are targeting the right audience for your business (paid social media)
Write to your audience. It is not about you, it is about them and the problems they have and need to overcome. … this is one of the biggest mistakes I see businesses doing 🙄
What are they going through? How do they feel? How does this impact their life or business?

✅ Take your audience on a journey … from where they are now to where they want to be. Let your company / service / product be the solution to their problem.

✅ Show them the logical steps they need to take to get the results they want.

No one gets it right every time … but following some simple steps helps …

… So does a lot of practice 😉

Reach out if you need any help. I will always reply to DM's as soon as I can.

There are a lot of people talking about scams lately ... and for good reason. They are on the increase!

I talk to a lot of different business owners every day and have heard some sad stories where people are stuck paying for something they don't want, or they have paid for their digital marketing and nothing happens.

Unfortunately ... it also affects legitimate digital marketing companies like mine.

So how do you tell a company that is going to work effectively for you on your marketing from one that won't?

Firstly have a conversation ... make sure that you understand what that company is offering and what they aren't. Make sure that you have good communication and that you are both on the same page in what you want to achieve.

Teamwork ... marketing does not happen alone. This is something that you need to work on together to get right. There is a feedback loop that is required to ensure it works effectively to achieve your end result.

Promises ... Does the company that you are talking to make promises about what they can achieve? Guarantee's that you will have certain results?
I don't ... we are a team working together to achieve the end result you desire. I will do my best to represent you and your company ... pull out what is unique about you and your company and ensure it stands out from your competition.
The truth is that not all ads work perfectly first time ... when they don't ... I need to go back to the drawing board and figure out what wasn't working and come up with solutions.

Money ... don't lock yourself into a contract without testing what that company can do for you. Have the experience of what it is like to work with them. That is why we offer a 14-Day Trial. You get to see what it is like working with us without any commitment.

Knowledge and experience ... Do they know what they are talking about. Get specific!
Can they talk about results and how they achieved them? Can they apply this to what you are wanting to achieve and give you some parameters around what you may be able to achieve? Can they show you some results?

I have had to turn down 3 businesses this week (it's Tuesday 😞) because I know what I have to offer them is not going to work for them at this stage in their business.

With every one of those businesses ... even though I didn't make money out of them I was able to offer some insight and value for their path forward.

Rupal said, "Thank you very much for your time and advice. You are an amazing person came across in my life. You are honest and straightforward in your conversation and not misleading. Will keep in touch ..."

So who do you want to work with in your business to get the results you want?

DM me if you would like to know more ...

Great session today at the Digital Marketing Summit. So many takeaways ... a few of the gems I got are below:
- Start before you are ready
- Don't be afraid to fail ... it's a learning experience
- You can either try to change the world or you can learn how to play the game.
- Everyone has fears. Learn to walk with them rather than avoid them. 3 of the biggest: Fear of failure, fear of what people will think of us, fear of not being good enough
- Time + action compounded = success.
- Show up consistently - courage > consistency > competency > confidence.
- True marketing is about genuinely promoting a business, not copying other peoples ads.
- The 1 thing you must do with your ads is make them different to your competition.
- What, How long, Why and Who are key questions to ask your prospect to ensure they engage at all levels to what you are saying.

Business owner Craig shared his recent experience using different marketing systems:

- Cold calling - 144 calls, 7 leads, 1 client … demotivating 😓

- Organic marketing online - 17 leads, 1 client … took too long 🥱

- Facebook lead ads using the same system we use - 28 leads, 8 booked calls, 2 confirmed clients, 2 unconfirmed clients, so far … qualified leads 😄

Would you like similar results running Facebook Lead ads?

Hey there! I’m Cherie Chisholm ...
.. Founder of Dream Leads Digital Marketing and if we've just connected or you're new to my circle, I'm thrilled to have you here.

You might know a bit about me, but let me fill in a bit more detail ...

I'm at the head of a business that’s all about providing quality leads for businesses that are ready to grow.

We craft strategies and marketing campaigns that help you attract the qualified leads into your business so you can do more of what you do best.

So how do you know I have the knowledge and experience to be able to provide you with the outcome you are after?

Well … I started out my career as a Mac operator and graphic designer (marketing) …

… Until I had two beautiful children and decided to change career paths … graduating and working as a naturopath and medicinal herbalist …

… but what I found is that I really loved marketing …

… I am naturally creative and good at it.

So, I restarted my career in that direction. I have worked for a real estate agent, a heat pump manufacturer, a John Deere dealership and a cleaning company …

… at all levels ranging from a PA to the marketing manager, leading a team and reporting directly to CEO/director and senior leadership team …

… quite a variety!

I have been involved with projects that range from …

… creating and managing social media content across a range of platforms, photographing and writing case studies and other content, creating websites (in conjunction with an agency - I am not a web developer), monitoring and writing for SEO and SEA/SEM (again in conjunction with an agency - I am not an SEO expert), creating a Shopify site, organising stands at events and trade shows such as Fieldays, strategising, creating and managing campaigns that run across newspaper, radio, billboards and digital, and organising and managing sponsorship as well as the campaigns and creative that go with that …

… phew 😅… so that’s a little bit of experience … huh?

… oh and the budgeting for that stuff 🫠

When I'm not strategising your next big campaign, you can find me out walking ...
.. I love walking in nature whether it is in the bush, by the sea or a mountain...
.. or exercising at home, enjoying a spot of gardening - a great time to turn my mind off and let the answers come. As well as enjoying time with my family and friends.

So, why am I here on Facebook talking to you?

Because I believe that every business owner has a unique voice that deserves to be heard, businesses have had a really hard time (Covid, shipping delays, etc) …

So, I'm here to get that voice heard by the people who need their help.

From creating seamless systems to drawing in a steady stream of clients, I'm here to lift some weight off your shoulders 🏋️

If you're wondering how to elevate your business to the next level, let's chat. If there's a way I can help, I will 😀

If not, I'll point you in the direction of someone who can. 👉

I practice what I preach, everything I advise is tried, tested, and true. I keep my skills razor-sharp, so you always get the best of what works right now.

Plus I have access to a team of marketing gurus that know even more than me 😇

I'm looking forward to our journey together. You'll likely get a personal hello from me soon (if you haven't already), and I hope my insights will add value to your life and business …

… so when you're ready to ramp up your business revenue, I'll be right here, ready to roll 🙃

Here's to growth, connection, and the exciting path ahead 🤗
