[Music]
all right hello and welcome to another
expert inside interview my name is John
golden from sales pop online sales
magazine and pipeliner CRM joining you
from San Diego and today I am delighted
to be joined by ashleyanne who is in
Miami normally in Little Rock Arkansas
but is in Miami today how you doing
ashleyanne I'm doing fantastic how are
you I'm doing great great and Ashley an
is a professional speaker social media
strategy business Builder award-winning
event designer educational technologist
wow I'm I'm I'm tired just reading that
out that's a lot of different
things what's that I said an a atic
speaker now I'm really excited about
that oh congratulations congratulations
absolutely and and uh and we're going to
we're going to talk about uh what we're
going to talk really about is Rel
relationship building today and and how
important that is to sales and business
and how that can differentiate in in in
success the difference between success
uh and not success uh and I think one of
the things that we have seen Ashan over
the last while especially the pandemic
you know pre-pandemic it was starting to
happen but certainly during the pandemic
it definitely accelerated and that's
that people I think are really craving
Human Relationships you know regardless
of whether it's personal relationships
or business relationships they want to
connect on some kind of human level
because I think we're all kind of uh
while technolog is a great enabler of
that here we are on Zoom um but some of
the technology has been used to kind of
almost remove the human element and and
that's been a
mistake absolutely um and I I honestly
think a lot of us took human connection
and interaction for granted honestly um
I can personally speak I believe that I
did I never really thought that I would
see a time where we would be forced to
disconnect from one another even like
close family and friends and so you
really realize um how communal we are as
a
people yeah and and absolutely and I
think that the the efforts uh that were
made as I said to kind of take the human
out of it I mean we've all had the
experiences of of trying to trying to
communicate with the company that send
you all over the place and you never get
to to talk to a human being um and how
frustrating that is and how at odds that
is often with the if you go on to that
company's website they probably have
customer Centric you know somewhere on
their mission or vision statement but
your but your experience is so different
absolutely um especially and this is my
thing I'm a big proponent of automation
but I I don't think everything should be
100% automated it right and I think
there's a line that maybe people are
missing um and I get that as
entrepreneurs and business owners that
we're all really busy but there's a
certain um there's a certain spark and
there's a certain connection that comes
with human interaction and I think for a
very long time it was undervalued and
people became so focused on sales that
they forgot that sales are really driven
by service right and how someone feels
about your company and the experience
like 80% of customers that leave
businesses is not because they weren't
the newest or the most inventive it's
not because they didn't have the best
product it's not even because they made
a mistake it's because they don't like
how that interaction with that company
made them feel and so I think you know
somewhere in the sauce a lot of people
have forgotten we're dealing with people
and we need to make sure people feel
good whenever they have an experience
with our with our company whether it's
through social media or retail you know
direct to direct direct sales you know
at a checkout
counter yeah and and actually great
Point uh I just wanted to come back on
on the automation because yeah we're big
Believers in Automation in our CRM we
have a workflow automation engine uh but
to your point we're we're all about
automating things to number one take
away routine and Road tasks or whatever
things that distract uh that don't need
to be done by a person and and also
things that make it more efficient for
the customers but to my mind the beauty
of automation is that it frees up time
for the relationship piece so it
shouldn't actually take away it
shouldn't take away from the
relationship it actually should enhance
it because you have more time to
concentrate on the on the relationship
element absolutely and I I feel like
somewhere in there people started to
think well if I use this automation I
don't have to deal with people so at
this point um I speak to thousands of
small business owners a week and we do
like small group coaching and things
like that and I cannot explain to you
the amount of people that have come to
me over I'll say the past 18 months and
they're like well yeah I want a coaching
program or yeah um I want to launch a
successful digital product or yeah I
want a membership but I don't want to
deal with the people and I'm like what
well well how can I make all this money
doing this and not deal with the people
and I'm like well you should probably
find something else to sell right maybe
just sell a physical product maybe do
something that's retail based because at
the end of the day if you're going to
build out you know that type of product
or that type of successful business is
successful because of the
people yeah and and that's that's
fascinating you know that uh it's a
fascinating uh approach you know to to
want to do that but not want to deal
with any people yeah you can find you
can find ways of doing that for sure
there's probably businesses that have
lend themselves to that but overall I
mean the vast majority as I said the
pendulum is swinging way back towards
more engagement and more human
engagement uh and so to your point I
don't think you're going you're in the
right business if you're looking to sell
but not really engage with anyone yeah
and I I love your point when you said
that the automation is supposed to be an
enhancement and that's true the
automation to open up the doorway maybe
just segmenting your client so you can
send them really valuable information or
find out what they need so whenever you
actually reach out to them through a
discovery call or just a nurturing email
or something like that you're giving
them highly valuable information which
is in turn right going to help with your
ultimate conversion and so you know
automation is used is great for
reminders it's great to send out
products um lead magnet offers right let
people know about sales um like you said
all those mundane tasks right maybe Mass
DMS things like that but you know once
you get that it's like okay now I've
opened up the door to be able to
communicate and build a relationship
with someone so now let's cultivate this
so that I have the new customer the
return and the repeat customer and then
the customer that gives me the increase
transactions right because those are the
three ways that your businesses
grow and one of the other things that
you mentioned earlier that I wanted to
come back to as well is the idea that it
is a it's an it's the customer
experience is the whole experience of
dealing with you know regardless of
whether it's a small solopreneur small
business large business it doesn't
matter uh when you interact with them
pre-sales or you interact with them on
social media or you interact with them
during the sales process or later on
when you're a customer maybe your
customer support if you're if that
experience isn't consistent and you know
uniformly a positive experience uh then
it only takes one part of that chain one
weak Link in that chain to undo
everything else absolutely and it this
is the thing that's interesting about
people right as far human behavior um
and I do a lot of reading about like
when it comes to like how our brains
work and um psychology and sociological
stuff and all of that I'm like
fascinated by it um but you know humans
have the propensity to actually focus on
the negative more so than the positive
so you know you a customer could have a
great experience with your company they
may tell a handful of people maybe they
may not even tell anybody they may just
walk away satisfied right but if you
make someone angry if you get them
ticked off if they've had some type of
negative interaction if they feel
disappointed oh they're telling
everybody right they're going on
Facebook they're getting on Instagram
they're getting on Tik Tok they're
calling the BB they're doing everything
that they can to let people know that
they're dissatisfied with your company
in some way and so literally you know I
think people have lost sight of that and
then even using your automated systems
to follow up right and create that
better experience for the customers
after right A lot of people they just
kind of think it's done once the sale is
over and no there's still an opportunity
for you to work with that customer
through referrals through refill and UPS
sales for you to work with them through
continued right education correlating
products um even you know grabbing
testimonials from them that you can
circulate out to other people in your
community um so it's it's really
important to make sure you know we're
looking at like the entire interaction
with a
customer yeah no absolutely
absolutely because at the end of the day
as you said you want them to be repeat
customers you want them to be
evangelists for you if they have a good
experience they continue to have a good
experience then the chance of them doing
that obviously obviously go up over time
but as you said it only takes one little
snafu for them to go on the negative so
it's just a fact of life it's a fact of
human nature you can either you know
deal with it as we're talking about or
you can ignore it at your peril yeah
hopefully everyone that's listen is
choosing to deal with
it I that they would make the wise
decision to deal with it so what have
you seen uh over the over the last while
um what have you have you seen some
creative ways of deepening and building
relationships with with customers um so
I know that this may sound a little
cliche but it's really true y'all social
media is a gateway um the beautiful
thing about social media is one it
allows you to meet many um I think a lot
of small business owners and
entrepreneurs sometimes you get tied up
and you get exhausted because you're on
a onetoone Model right the beautiful
thing about social media you literally
can meet a thousand to 10,000 people a
day through your content through your
hashtags through micro influencer
campaigns through sharing the content on
other pages and then once you have their
attention you give them an invitation
right to come and connect to you so to
start the process of building that
relationship so now we're going to build
the list so you can send them you know
their initial lead magnets you can send
them awesome um valuable content inside
of the emails you can answer their
questions invite them to Discovery calls
so I think one of the most creative
things that I'm seeing is people
actually meeting people on social media
with value based content um even if it's
coming through live streams or reals and
saying hey if you want to stay connected
to me come and join my club come and
join my free membership come into my app
and get this you know course or be a
part of our community um I think that's
probably like the most creative and the
most effective way that I've seen to
build up a company and build up a huge
buying base of people and convert them
really
quickly yeah no absolutely and I think
there's a couple of things there that
you mentioned that I also just wanted to
underline the first thing you said about
the content and about valuable content
and I and I think this is a critical
critical critically important piece
because there's a lot of content out
there there's a lot of noise out there
there's a lot of garbage content
sometimes people think oh if I just
fling this link or this piece of content
over there I'm adding value well if if
it's not a it's not a good piece of
content if it's not relevant then you're
not you're just you're just like you
know painting by numbers at that stage
um and I and I think that that's the key
point is if you're going to do it do it
well because the world doesn't need more
crappy content right and I wanted to
give a few examples of value based
content if that was okay because I know
people are always talking about valuable
content but they don't ever really share
like what that means and so um at this
point you know I'm one of the top social
media strategist in the country and I
have learned over the past decade that
your audience tells you what's valuable
not what we think is valuable sometimes
we we we are really excited about
something and that's what we want to
promote or focus on as the business
owner but your audience is like no
that's not what I want from you so
frequently ask questions anytime you can
answer those is valuable content any
type of definition or term or explaining
a concept is valuable content um anytime
you can get someone to think about
something or put a smile on their face
or give them like a warm and fuzzy um or
offer them a different perspective or
even the space to be able to communicate
about something that's valuable content
um anytime that that you can actually
show someone how to like use a product
or an offer valuable content if you can
show them how to maintain it care for it
I'm explaining to them about the
supplies or the ingredients or the
process that you're using that makes the
company special um time lapse videos
where people can see how much work is
going into it behind the scenes right
these things create proceed value
anything that falls into the category
one of those types of content buckets is
going to be valuable content because
it's going to establish you as a
resource and people like to be educated
they like to be informed but they don't
like to be sold to and if see people see
you as a resource well now you're going
to be able to attract lots of clients to
you right and then maybe you can tap
into the automation where okay they
followed so you s an automated DM you
know that invites them to join your text
message Community or your app right and
then from there start to cultivate the
relationship but that I I think a lot of
people you know kind of get stressed out
or give themselves anxiety about about
what they need to post that valuable
that's going to attract a customer
convert someone and literally just think
wake up every day and say how can I help
someone right how can I help someone in
my area that's really what you're
looking to do to put out there for
Content that's going to cultivate a huge
buying base and you know convert you
know convert your audience into
buyers yeah no I love what you just said
there and and I think especially is a
fantastic takeaway for people is that
what you said is that the the content
doesn't have to be you don't have to be
writing white papers you don't even have
to be writing Long blog posts
particularly or making long videos you
don't even have to be doing even what
we're doing to your point is even if
it's something small that's helpful you
know a tip or or or whatever that's
helpful as you said that you can share
or a as answering a question or offering
an Insight those are those are things
that pretty much anybody can do and it's
not that timec
consuming yeah absolutely um and so I
think once people really get that in
their heads um and they start right to
activate or to execute on that on that
perspective and on that thought of this
is what I want to put out here right and
this is this is how I want people to
have interactions with me they will find
that you know there's going to be quite
a significant turnaround when it comes
to the relations with their customers um
the way that the brand is viewed and
ultimately how many people want to
purchase from them
yeah no ABS absolutely and and what do
you say to those people maybe who are
still a little you know reluctant um to
get deeply involved in social media or
maybe feel overwhelmed because they
think well there's so many different
platforms and I don't know where I
should be and you know should I be
should I be should I be leading my sort
of segment by going to Tik Tok because
nobody's on Tik Tok out of my segment or
is there nobody on Tik Tok out of my
segment because there's none of our
customers are there so what I what I
normally tell people and I will say this
your customers on every social media
platform you know there are hundreds of
millions of active users on the big five
right now which would be YouTube
Facebook Instagram uh Tik Tok and then
Snapchat and Pinterest go back and forth
with one another um and so if you have
hundreds of millions PE of people that
are active on there even if if only if
there was like 0 Z1 five% of those
people were your where your customer
right you still have hundreds of
thousands of people in any business
right can sustain from that um so that
that's number one the second thing I
would tell people is you pick a platform
that you like that you actually
genuinely enjoy you don't have to be
active on all the platforms I do
recommend going and grabbing your name
on all of the platforms so that way you
have them and if you want to move into
it you know you don't have to purchase
your name from anyone or anything like
that but you find one that you really
enjoy that you genuinely like to be on
because it's going to be so so easy for
you to create content it's going to be
so easy for you to connect right it's
not going to make you feel overwhelmed
because you actually like that platform
and then when it comes into a second
platform that's where I would say let's
actually Bear down and look at some
market research and figure out where our
audience hangs out at right because if
you're looking for people um let's say
you're doing like businesses to business
you know kind of all commercial
interactions well you're probably going
to want to spend more time on LinkedIn
right um if you're you're a really
visual person and you know maybe you're
looking for people that are in between
the ages of 28 and 45 and they make at
least $100,000 a year well a lot of them
are hanging out on Instagram right and
so that's where you're going to go um if
you're looking to you know be able to
reach multiple Generations you may
decide I need to be on YouTube right
because everyone's there so the first
platform should be the platform that you
actually enjoy on social the second one
let's base it off of research and say
where our idea audience or our Target
consumer where do they spend the
majority of their time that's going to
be your second platform I think once you
build in um your third thing is like
being intentional and putting together a
marketing plan or a system so you know
maybe saying I'm gonna have five content
buckets and all the content is going to
fall into one of these five categories
right um I'm going to make sure that I
have a tree so when they click the link
in the bio they can easily find out how
to connect with me outside of social
media they can easily see what my you
know deal of the day is or what my you
know um most valuable product is they
can easily see the lead magnet and get
to where they want to go right I'm going
to make sure that I'm very intentional
you know about collaborating with
someone at least once a week or once a
month through maybe like we're gonna
take over each other's Instagram stories
or we're going to do a live stream
together or maybe invite people into a
webinar right and being very strategic
collaborating with people that have
compliment M products and services to
yours right so that way you guys can
grow um with one another so number three
basically get a plan and be intentional
and stick to your plan um and then the
fourth thing that I would say is once
we've put out an offer right and we know
that it's being received and it it
doesn't have to be a big audience maybe
we're just getting consistent sales
every week we get to the point you can
get 10 sales a week then saying okay
well now let me think about putting some
money into ads I think a lot of people
start putting money into ads ads um too
soon instead of focusing on building up
organic traffic and organic sales and
this is why when they run ads their ads
don't work well you know if you couldn't
do it before you ran a ad to your
smaller audience of people You're darn
sure aren going to be able to be
successful right getting in front of
thousands of people now you're just
gonna have thousands of people telling
you no um so that that's what I would
that's what I would suggest to people so
that way they're not overwhelmed you do
not have to be on all of these social
media platforms every day and one time
right and then at that point once you
have your two mastered let's consider
building a team right which would be
number five so now you can bring in
someone that can manage Pinterest for
you or LinkedIn or where whatever it is
that you feel like you're weak right
bring in a Content team that can produce
the content and post into do the
engagement for you so you don't have to
do it yeah no no those are fantastic
fantastic points and and I just um our
last one I just wanted to ask you about
is
also uh sometimes you see people jump
onto social media and then they try to
maybe imitate other people or they try
to be something that they're not right I
mean maybe they tried to well we're
going to be you know a little bit more
upbeat and wacky and zany but that's not
your company and that's not the
experience people have with your company
so now you've kind of got a
clash absolutely my I'm I'm a huge
proponent of being yourself you know
even me as an example I have like over a
million followers at this point and I'm
a regular girl from the country okay
traditional Southern Bale I grew up
literally on a farm no street lights no
sidewalks um and I have excelled because
I spoke to a specific Niche that people
were ignoring and I'm able to take you
know high level Concepts when it comes
to marketing and business and put it in
terminology that my community can
understand and interpret right and so I
you know I know I'm not everyone's cup
of te but the people that rock with me
they rock with me right my vibe has
attracted My Tribe and so I would say be
yourself so that way it's not exhaustive
to you and you really can create a
customer that's going to become a
lifelong customer right someone that you
really can be in relationship with it
gets exhausting trying to be someone
that you're not yeah no absolutely um
what was it was it Oscar wild who was it
who said that you know be yourself
because everyone else is taken that's
right one of the best
yeah big big F I actually have a book
somewhere of Oscar wild quotes because I
used to love throwing them out but
anyway just entertaining myself with
them but I I think if people looked at
themselves as like them like you us as
individuals we're the unique selling
proposition right it's us so there
nobody can do you the way you can do you
and there could be like let's say you
bake cakes where there are 50 million
cake bakers out there but none of them
can bake a cake like you none of them
can tell the story like you know none of
them pull the pans and the cakes out of
the ovens the way you do so really just
saying you know what I got is enough and
somebody somewhere is g to be into this
yeah no that's fantastic Fant and by the
way um you know given the experience of
the last few years uh growing up on a
farm in the country with no street
lights and all of that sounds like a
pretty good place to be to be
honest and it gave me a lot of
advantages because um all the people I
know from the country we're we're hard
workers you know
and you don't have a lot and so you get
really creative and you figure out how
to make something out of nothing real
quick and so um I can you know run
circles around people because when they
are missing a little component or they
get a road bump or a challenge they just
kind of shut down and I'm like oh
whatever I'm like all right I'm do this
over here you know let's
go I I know
yeah no I I love it I love it and um
yeah done when it shows and it's and
it's great because uh here I think you
can teach teach people most things one
thing you can teach people is hard work
unfortunately that's something that's
either in in innate or inherit them or
not um listen Ashan this has been
fantastic all of ashan's uh information
is going to be below this video but
