Latest / Closing Sales in Nigeria - Sales For The Nigerian Business Person: The Sales and Marketing Blueprint / How to Make Content That Actually Sells
Transcript
- 0:00Hello and welcome to the show. Today we are going to be
- 0:04discussing content marketing ideas for real estate in Abuja.
- 0:09Before we continue, apologies because I'm making today's
- 0:12recording at home. It's a weekend, everybody's
- 0:15home, the kids at home, So you're going to hear some noise
- 0:17in the background. Now the reason why we're looking
- 0:20at content marketing ideas for real estate in Abuja is because
- 0:25it's 2026 and I think the real estate community is more active,
- 0:31more gingered again just like they were in 2025.
- 0:37S listener of the podcast, Let's call him Lucky Dube again, not
- 0:41his real name. Where was I?
- 0:46OK yeah, anyway, let's just call him Lucky Dube.
- 0:48That's not his real name. Lucky Dube is based in Abuja and
- 0:51wants to do YouTube content and and he reached out to me because
- 0:56he wants to know what is the best way to begin.
- 1:00In particular, he has notes on land banking.
- 1:03Don't worry, I'll explain that concept later.
- 1:07Land banking. So he has some notes on land
- 1:10banking and basically he just wants to know how to translate
- 1:13all these ideas into a content marketing strategy on YouTube
- 1:16that should get him clients to boost his real estate practice
- 1:20in Abuja. And then I've been telling you
- 1:23guys that, you know, I'm open to giving free consulting.
- 1:26So I asked him straight up, are you looking for free advice or
- 1:31do you want to make this a paid session so that I can walk with
- 1:33you every step of the way? And he said, let's start for
- 1:35free. I said, OK, no problem.
- 1:37But just like I tell you guys, if it's going to be a free
- 1:40session, then you are entitled to one question and one question
- 1:43only. Now, the reason why I keep
- 1:46stressing that you're entitled to one question only is because
- 1:48I want you guys to think really hard about the question that
- 1:52you're going to ask. Because if you have one free
- 1:54question, there's no point in asking a question that is not
- 1:58really, do you understand, not really an important question,
- 2:02not really a serious question. So he had one question and he
- 2:06said he was ready and he asked the question.
- 2:09And just like I feared, unfortunately, he asked the
- 2:12least valuable question that he could ask.
- 2:16His question was about equipment.
- 2:18His question was about microphones, and to be honest,
- 2:22if you're thinking of starting using content marketing in your
- 2:26business, you want to start a YouTube channel, you want to
- 2:29start a blog, you want to start a podcast, you understand
- 2:31something to grow your sales and you reach out to me.
- 2:35Honestly speaking, asking me about equipment, it's the least
- 2:38valuable question you could have asked me, especially since
- 2:41that's the kind of information that you can find readily just
- 2:45by using AI tools or researching on YouTube or something.
- 2:49You can find those kinds of answers easily.
- 2:53Oh, by the way, just in case you want to reach out like Lucky
- 2:55Dube, you can call me, send me a text message or a WhatsApp
- 2:58message on 08064662140 and I'm open to chatting.
- 3:04Remember, if you're looking for freed coaching, free coaching,
- 3:08then you'll only have a shot at one question.
- 3:11So think really hard before you reach out then.
- 3:17OK, this was my answer to him basically.
- 3:19So I said, yeah, it's a good idea.
- 3:21Video YouTube especially building it around this idea of
- 3:24land banking. That is not a problem.
- 3:27Not a bad idea. Then also remember, I'm going to
- 3:30explain what land banking means later on.
- 3:33And then I told him that contrary to what most people
- 3:37believe, because when most people are thinking about the
- 3:38YouTube channel, they focus a lot on the camera and the
- 3:42lighting, But actually when it comes to YouTube or when it
- 3:45comes to video content, the audio is the most important
- 3:48thing. I know some of you didn't get
- 3:51that, but let me repeat. When it comes to video content,
- 3:54when it comes to YouTube, the audio is the most important
- 3:59thing because your video can look tight, your video can be
- 4:03sweet, but people can hear what it is that you're saying they
- 4:07will skip through. And the moment people begin the
- 4:11skip on your video, you understand people, they walk up
- 4:14as the algorithm will say, oh, this video is not valuable and
- 4:18it will not share to other people.
- 4:20So when you want to start, his instincts were right.
- 4:24Actually, you should be prioritizing audio, audio
- 4:29quality, nine pay pass in the beginning, audio quality.
- 4:34So like this podcast that we're making right now, it's only
- 4:37audio, but if it were a video podcast and the lighting was
- 4:40correct but my audio was crap, you guys won't stay here.
- 4:44You'd move on and you'd look for another podcast.
- 4:47So I told him, test your phones, your phones have internal audio
- 4:51and see if it's not cool. Then you can, I told him you can
- 4:56go and buy microphones at Urbano.
- 4:59Urbano is a shop. I'll put it now, it's a, it's a
- 5:04store. They have branches in Abuja, in
- 5:06Lagos and in the East. So, and they sell affordable
- 5:10microphones there. The microphone that I got that
- 5:12I'm using right now cost 7200. It's, it's a wired microphone.
- 5:17I've already explained the reason why I picked that.
- 5:19And they have other versions all the way up to about 250,000
- 5:23naira, 350,000 naira, you know, for wireless microphones and
- 5:27stuff like that. So depending on your budget,
- 5:29just go to Urbano. And by the way, it's not as if
- 5:31Urbano is giving me anything. So they are not endorsing me.
- 5:35This is not an advertisement, but, you know, you are my guys.
- 5:39Now, if you reach out, you know, I'll let you know what's up.
- 5:42I'll be frank with you. There's no reason to form.
- 5:45So yeah. But apart from that, I also told
- 5:49him, look, if you have airports, you're, you know, this, you're
- 5:52in earphones. They're quite fine.
- 5:54Stick them in record and say what the quality is like.
- 5:57And if it's cool, it's cool if people can hear you, then.
- 6:00Noah Hala. So that was my advice to him.
- 6:04That's how the question was as other question, we, we, we
- 6:08tackle the question. So excuse me, but however, like
- 6:14I said, so excuse me, I'm recovering from a sore throat.
- 6:19So however, like I said, him asking me about microphones, not
- 6:22quite the best use of the time that we have together because
- 6:26there are some bigger questions involved, some really, really,
- 6:29really bigger questions involved.
- 6:31Especially if you're in the real estate space and you are trying
- 6:34to use any kind of content marketing, you're trying to use
- 6:37blogging, you're trying to use podcasting, you're trying to use
- 6:42YouTube videos or whatever it is to move your business forward.
- 6:46So this is the biggest question now or this is the bigger
- 6:49question is equipment, camera, microphone lighting, ring
- 6:55lights, top lights, side light, 3 point lighting system, all
- 7:00these all these kind questions. Is this really a significant
- 7:04part or is this the most important part of your content
- 7:06marketing strategy? I repeat, you say you won't do
- 7:11podcasts, you won't do video, you won't do like whatever it is
- 7:14you want to do truly, truly, truly.
- 7:16Is it microphone? Is it camera lights, camera
- 7:18stand lighting, This that that that light gel like?
- 7:23Are these the most important part of your content marketing
- 7:26strategy? The answer is no, my brothers
- 7:32and sisters. The answer is no.
- 7:34Whether you're in the real estate space in Abuja or in
- 7:36Lagos or Anambra or wherever, the answer is no.
- 7:40If you're in the financial services sector, you know the
- 7:42answer is no. Doesn't matter what sector, the
- 7:44answer is no. And that's because in 2026,
- 7:47remember, this podcast is dated. I'm recording it in 2026.
- 7:50So if you're listening to this podcast in 2046 or 2056, you
- 7:54know things might have changed. But right now in 2026, people
- 7:58seem to value low production. People seem to they seem to bad
- 8:02room. They seem to like, you know, low
- 8:03production value. In other words, your videos
- 8:06don't need to be Guiche Brown, they don't need to be high tech.
- 8:09You understand? In 2026, now there was a time
- 8:13maybe like 1520 years ago where people expected to see your
- 8:18videos with Polish, like your video must be clean, you
- 8:23understand, like your video must be correct, like you shot it on
- 8:27CNN or Channels TV or something. But the tide has changed in
- 8:312026. Low production value is fine.
- 8:34What people are looking for right now is authenticity.
- 8:37That's why some of you did this podcast because you're listening
- 8:40and you can tell that, you know, I just whip up my phone and I
- 8:42just shoot it straight one time, one take and this and they
- 8:46upload. No eddies, no nothing, no vanish
- 8:49as you see me. That's how it is.
- 8:52That's what people feel nowadays.
- 8:56And then people are looking for stuff that has a relatable edge.
- 9:00In the beginning, I was worried, but now I've seen that I make
- 9:03the right choice. Like those of you who listen to
- 9:06this podcast because currently I have 4300 and something
- 9:09subscribers. The reason why you guys are here
- 9:11is because you know, you feel my flow, you feel the boy.
- 9:14You're a Niger person. I'm a Niger person and you know,
- 9:17we're good. We're all good.
- 9:20So I can be recording. My children are fighting in the
- 9:22background. I pause the recording, I go and
- 9:23shout at them. I come back, I press play, you
- 9:26know, and there's no, there's no biggie, no le le you guys
- 9:30understand because it's just me. We cool, we good.
- 9:34Now the reason why that's possible is because in 2026, you
- 9:39know, things have changed. Low production value now is
- 9:41fine. So summary, what I'm trying to
- 9:44say is if you want to start on the low budget, it's not a
- 9:47problem. If you want to start low
- 9:50production value, it is fine. It is fine.
- 9:52It is fine. So please, for those of you who
- 9:55are thinking I want to grow my business, whether you are in
- 9:58construction, whether you're in real estate, whether you're in
- 10:02pharmaceutical services, whether you're in wealth advisory,
- 10:05whether you sell catfish, whether whatever you want to
- 10:08start and you want content marketing to be a significant
- 10:11part of this journey of growing your, your, your, your sales,
- 10:14growing your business, growing your revenues.
- 10:16Please, it is fine. Stop obsessing about equipment.
- 10:21And if you reach out to someone like me, take advantage and ask
- 10:26bigger questions. Don't ask questions around
- 10:28equipment. Now some of you'll be wondering
- 10:30what are the bigger questions? What are the most important
- 10:32questions? Very good.
- 10:34Let's get straight in. The most important question that
- 10:36you suppose ask is anything around your content, around this
- 10:40strategy of content marketing. You want to be sure that your
- 10:44strategy is correct because remember the strategy thrust of
- 10:48his content is going to be building content around what
- 10:51people in real estate like to call land banking.
- 10:54That should have been one question.
- 10:56Is this content thrust, is it correct?
- 10:59This strategy E tap? Is it good?
- 11:03Are we on points? Are we on focus?
- 11:07You understand that's a bigger question.
- 11:09Another bigger question would have been around the content
- 11:12calendar. Now the content calendar is
- 11:14where you sit down, use a paper and a pencil or use a a note on
- 11:19your phone or whatever, or whatever it shall.
- 11:22But you sit down and you have a good think yourself, who is the
- 11:27audience? Who am I trying to attract?
- 11:29What topics are we going to talk about?
- 11:31What questions will I address? What are the burning issues in
- 11:34the minds of Nigerians who are thinking of buying real estate?
- 11:38You sit down and ask yourself all those questions.
- 11:41Now by the time you are answering that question, you put
- 11:43in everything on paper. You know the the map that you're
- 11:47going to use to, to decide what YouTube videos you record and
- 11:52when and things like that. You know the map, go begin.
- 11:54They take shape. When it comes to content
- 11:58marketing, what you say and who you are talking to is the most
- 12:03important consideration. Let me repeat, what you say,
- 12:07what will I be saying and who you are talking to?
- 12:12Those are the most important considerations and not your
- 12:16equipment, not your microphone, just in case there are others
- 12:23who are listening and you want to reach out to me just like
- 12:26Lucky Dube did. And you want to ask me questions
- 12:28around microphone. At least now you know that
- 12:31microphone is is not, is not your headache.
- 12:35And like I said, if you want to reach out, the number is
- 12:3708064662140. Let's have a chat.
- 12:43You want free advice, Not a problem.
- 12:44Remember, I will answer one question only.
- 12:47If you want us to go in depth, we need to sit down.
- 12:50I'll need to book a proper session so that we can go in
- 12:52depth and so I can accompany you on whatever problems it is that
- 12:56you're facing in your business. Now, the reason why the content
- 13:00calendar is key, why we're going to ask all some real hard
- 13:04questions. Who is the audience?
- 13:06What topics do we want to talk about?
- 13:07What questions do we want to answer?
- 13:09What are the burning issues? Then what is our cadence?
- 13:11Are we going to be putting stuff out daily?
- 13:13Putting stuff out weekly? If you're going to say you're
- 13:17putting stuff out monthly, in my own opinion, I will say forget
- 13:20it. Don't even start.
- 13:21There's no need. There's no how you're going to
- 13:24pick any traction if you're putting out stuff once a month.
- 13:26There is no need. Don't even bother.
- 13:30That's my own honest opinion. But if you like it and disregard
- 13:33me at the very least, please I beg whatever it is you're
- 13:37putting, I'll be putting it out weekly once a month.
- 13:40You're wasting your time. In my own opinion, no.
- 13:45SO now the reason why these are the most important things is
- 13:50because once you get your audience right, like you are
- 13:53targeting the right people, once you get your topic nailed in,
- 14:00you're only answering questions that Nigerians want to hear when
- 14:03it comes to real estate. OK, he's in Abuja.
- 14:05Nigerians in Abuja questions that they have around real
- 14:10estate. The burning issues.
- 14:12What will not happen is when you post that thing on YouTube, you
- 14:15will now be getting long dwell times because people will be
- 14:19listening. They'll be saying who is this
- 14:21guy? Who is this Lucky Dube, OK, and
- 14:23I real estate OK, and the guy that makes sense, the guy that
- 14:27makes sense, the guy that makes sense.
- 14:29Now as people are dwelling on this, your video, let's say your
- 14:35video 1515 minutes on average people are watching like 10-12
- 14:38minutes because you're getting good dwell time, long dwell
- 14:42time. YouTube algorithm will say be
- 14:45like say this lucky to be like, say the guy gets answer, be like
- 14:49say this, this, this, this content is valuable.
- 14:52So the algorithm now will start sharing it to other people as
- 14:56the algorithm is recommending it to other people.
- 14:59You know how YouTube does their thing now, oh, people who watch
- 15:02this video also watch videos like this.
- 15:04They will now go and put your own video there or looking for
- 15:08more content in real estate in Abuja, Users in Abuja, sorry
- 15:13listeners, I see listeners, I'll be viewers.
- 15:15Viewers in Abuja also looked at videos like this.
- 15:20Now as YouTube, as the YouTube algorithm is doing that, you
- 15:23will now be getting organic growth.
- 15:26Organic just means not paid. You're not harassing anybody,
- 15:29you know they chase anybody, you know, advertising, you know
- 15:31nothing as per you just put it out there, Everything wants to
- 15:34grow, let it grow. Everything wants to perish, let
- 15:36it perish. That's organic growth.
- 15:41You start getting organic growth.
- 15:43Now the good thing about organic growth is this.
- 15:45When you now see the one that is growing organically, you now
- 15:49know that you can put money behind it.
- 15:50You can boost it or you can promote it.
- 15:52That's if you're on Instagram. I think on Instagram there's
- 15:56boost or promote, I can't remember.
- 15:58So you can now put some money behind it.
- 16:02What I'm trying to say is this, if you've been dropping videos
- 16:05and let's say on average your videos you get like to 200, view
- 16:07to 200, view that one that now gets like 1500 views.
- 16:11You now see that, OK, it's like there's something here on this
- 16:14video that resonate with people. That's one they now go and boost
- 16:18because you've seen that one. They perform well.
- 16:21In fact, it over perform because all your other videos to 200 to
- 16:25200-1100 then this one 1005 boost that one apart from
- 16:32boosting the one that performs well organically 1500 views.
- 16:36Let's say you know your early days, that is the one that you
- 16:39now know that OK, I suppose. Now make a polished version of
- 16:43that one. That is the one that you can now
- 16:46make a different version. Go and get lights, go and get
- 16:48camera, go and get these. Go and get that, you know, see,
- 16:51maybe it will perform well or you can record different
- 16:56versions of it. But you can see that when it
- 16:59comes to content marketing, the most important thing, like I
- 17:02said, is your content calendar and the strategy questions
- 17:04around it. Who is your audience?
- 17:06What's the topic? What are the questions?
- 17:08What are the burning issues? These are the main things.
- 17:11And I'm showing you the benefits because remember, the whole
- 17:13point of a content marketing strategy is we're not putting
- 17:16out these things so that we can be cute.
- 17:18We're not putting out these things so we can be playing fine
- 17:20boy or playing fine girl or putting it out because we want
- 17:22people to see. And when people see the king go
- 17:25resonate. When they resonate, then go
- 17:27engage, then go, they drop comments, then from there to go
- 17:31enter inside your DM and then it's from the DM that we have a
- 17:34hope of closing one or two deals.
- 17:37Please remember whenever we talk content marketing, putting stuff
- 17:42on YouTube, putting stuff on blog, putting stuff wherever,
- 17:44Please remember the focus is not to be forming fine boy, fine
- 17:49girl. It's not because we want to do
- 17:50we want to be forming influenza? No, on their personality.
- 17:54That is not it. The focus is we'll put out stuff
- 17:57and we want the stuff to, to to resonate.
- 18:00Want people to feel lost. This thing I was saying then if
- 18:04they feel lost, the more they engaged or they like the good
- 18:06they share from the liking and the sharing, one or two people
- 18:09go into inside your DM to say, oh boy, how far are you
- 18:12available? Are you free?
- 18:14How much do you deliver to Sokoto?
- 18:16Do you do this? Do you do this?
- 18:17Do you do that? Then from those 2-3
- 18:20conversations, you got a close deal.
- 18:22Small, small, small. All right.
- 18:24That is the whole point of content marketing.
- 18:27We want to close deals. Small, small, small.
- 18:30Do not get distracted. I believe me.
- 18:34Happens to everybody. Because one of the business
- 18:36meetings that I had today was I'm trying to see how I can get
- 18:38my TV show and I'm trying to expand my reach to other radio
- 18:43stations. And at some point, you know,
- 18:45mom, she called me mom. She wanted, you know, mom, she
- 18:48wanted to have a sit down me and say, my son, I hope you're not
- 18:50getting distracted. I hope you're not forming on
- 18:53their personality up and down. And I tell her mom say no, no,
- 18:56no, don't worry. You know, I'm not distracted.
- 18:58I still they focused the money. I define that the money is to
- 19:02go, all right, anybody can get distracted.
- 19:05You know how it is now people reach out to you and they say,
- 19:07oh, oh, your podcast is awesome, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 19:11You know, you start feeling like a fine boy.
- 19:15The focus is sales, money, revenue.
- 19:21So the free question that Lucky Dube should have asked me was
- 19:24around refining the strategic issues around this content
- 19:28calendar. Now this issue of land banking,
- 19:31I said let me explain this thing.
- 19:32Land banking, to be honest, real estate people, you know how
- 19:36trends come and go, It's like 20252026.
- 19:39That's the trend. Now in Niger, everybody, they
- 19:42talk land banking, land banking, land banking.
- 19:47But remember the podcast episodes that I spoke about
- 19:50earlier when I was talking about that if we want to be good in
- 19:52sales, we have to talk about things in terms that our
- 19:55potential customers understand. Now you real estate people, when
- 19:58you say land banking will not understand, you know, waiting
- 20:01with a yarn. But The thing is ordinary people
- 20:03like us now we hear land banking what we think is like.
- 20:07What does that mean? What does land banking mean?
- 20:12So I keep telling real estate professionals that, look, you've
- 20:14explained the concept and I think I understand it.
- 20:16But honestly speaking, right, ordinary people, when they buy
- 20:20real estate, they're buying real estate for two reasons, either
- 20:24of two reasons #1 they're looking for investment
- 20:27opportunities. They want to buy low, sell high.
- 20:29Somebody wants to buy land in Maitama at, you know, 100
- 20:33million and then keep it for five years.
- 20:36Then when do you think you don't appreciate?
- 20:37You sell it for 1 billion and then he'll pocket.
- 20:41We will now pocket. Was that 95,000,000 Abby?
- 20:45That's what people want to do investment.
- 20:49Then another one is home ownership.
- 20:52They're tired of being landlord. So except if I'm wrong, I know
- 20:57real estate person in Niger that I've spoken to like this has
- 21:00corrected me. These are the 2 main things.
- 21:03Investment or home ownership. Please keep it simple.
- 21:07Stop coming up with all these fancy concepts when you real
- 21:09estate people are having your meeting, association,
- 21:12association meeting and use all the technical terms you want.
- 21:15But then when you're speaking to customers, please keep it to
- 21:19those two terms. Those two things, people are
- 21:22either using real estate as an investment tool or people are
- 21:26either using real estate to stop answering landlord or to do home
- 21:31ownership. So in my own opinion, now all
- 21:35you really say, people stop this land banking thing, you're
- 21:37sending out Flyers and saying land banking, land banking.
- 21:40The average person does not know what land banking mean, means
- 21:44you are adding an impediment to your sales process.
- 21:47You are putting a term there that you now have to educate
- 21:49somebody on first of all, before you can even start talking about
- 21:53closing the sale. Now, if land banking is what I
- 21:56understand it to mean, then why not just talk about the
- 22:00investment potential for real estate?
- 22:04So, so, so and so areas are underdeveloped.
- 22:06If we grab the thing now and we do partial development or we
- 22:10build this kind of complex or build this or build this, we can
- 22:13get we have the opportunities for income down the line.
- 22:18Why not just say it like that? What is all this land banking?
- 22:20All of you are shouting up and down land banking that is inside
- 22:23speak. Remember the example that I gave
- 22:26is if on this podcast I keep telling you people, I say hello,
- 22:29welcome to the podcast. My name is Tavishimahyudi.
- 22:31I'm a conversion rate optimization specialist.
- 22:34You will be like convert con what you will not know the
- 22:38meaning of what I said. Technically speaking, I will be
- 22:41correct to say that I am a conversion rate optimization
- 22:44specialist because I look at your business and I try and see
- 22:48how many deals are you closing, how many people are taking the
- 22:51next step. Let's figure out the problem.
- 22:53OK, Let's see how we can improve those ratios so that at the end
- 22:56of the day, if you're talking to 10 potential customers, maybe
- 22:59you close the deal with three or four and then you increase it,
- 23:03you know, to five to 6 to 8 out of 10.
- 23:06So if I say I'm a conversion rate optimization specialist,
- 23:09I'll be fine. But The thing is, when I use
- 23:11that kind jargon, it is only people who are in the sales and
- 23:14marketing community that will understand me.
- 23:17Those of you who are listening to this podcast now who could be
- 23:20my potential customers, you don't know what the hell that
- 23:23means. So those of you in the crypto
- 23:27space, you will should stop talking web three web disk, you
- 23:30know slash protocol something something you know none of that
- 23:34stop it. Those of you who are web
- 23:36developers stop talking about UIUX front end back end
- 23:40developers something stop that people don't understand.
- 23:44Now those of you in the real estate community 2025, I've been
- 23:47here in land banking and no go ahead word 2026 we're now here
- 23:50in land banking again. Can you guys stop coming up with
- 23:53funny concepts that your customers don't understand in
- 23:56real estate? People buy real estate in
- 23:59Nigeria. I could be wrong.
- 24:00If I am wrong, any real estate person, please reach out to me.
- 24:0408064662140 reach out to me and educate me that there's another
- 24:11class of excuse me, people who buy real estate in Nigeria,
- 24:15educate me please. But as far as I know, excuse me,
- 24:21people are buying land or people are buying property in Nigeria
- 24:23because #1 when they see land or they see house, they are
- 24:27thinking investments. I'll buy this thing low, I go
- 24:30sell, I'm high or buy this thing and I'll build and then I'll be
- 24:35collecting rent. It may come at 1010 million
- 24:37every single year after 10 years, after 10 years, I break
- 24:43even. So excuse me.
- 24:46So after 10 years, I break even. Anything after that is profit.
- 24:49Then by the time my time is done and you know, I die and I go,
- 24:53you know, the children will now be enjoying the, the, the assets
- 24:56that I've left behind. So those are the reasons why
- 25:02people buy real estate investment or homeownership.
- 25:08So speaking those terms, sorry, today's a long day, but like I
- 25:14said, I'm just recovering from a sore throat.
- 25:15So anyway, for Lucky Dube, these are the questions that we should
- 25:20have been asking. So he actually just wasted his
- 25:25free, his free, what's it called?
- 25:29His free question. By the way, Lucky Dube, nobody
- 25:33said they yap you or anything. I'm just trying to pass across a
- 25:36message. And of course, I'm also hinting
- 25:39are the things that you should be paying attention to.
- 25:41So when you listen to this podcast, don't just think, ah,
- 25:43not true, I goof, but at least excuse me.
- 25:47Now you know the things that you ought to be researching so you
- 25:50can use AI tools or start talking to other professionals
- 25:53in your field and then start trying to figure out some of
- 25:56these questions. So we should have figured out,
- 26:01we should have spoken about your content calendar.
- 26:03We should have refined your messaging strategy.
- 26:07Then we should also have asked questions around.
- 26:10We should also should have tried to figure out what your lead
- 26:13generational strategy is going to be for putting out these
- 26:16videos. Remember that a lead is someone
- 26:19who has done something that shows they might be interested
- 26:21in your product or your service. Now there's no point in putting
- 26:24out podcasts, putting out video, putting out audio, putting out
- 26:28blog posts if there's no strategy to get somebody to
- 26:31raise their hand to show that they might be interested.
- 26:35Because it's from those people who raise their hand either by
- 26:38downloading something or sliding into your DM or sending you
- 26:41e-mail or something like that is from those people that will get
- 26:45the chance to have conversations and we might end up closing a
- 26:47deal. Or else you will find that you
- 26:50putting you're putting up videos on YouTube and you see that
- 26:53you've been putting your videos on YouTube five years.
- 26:55You never get one single customer.
- 26:57It happens that people that go through that.
- 27:03So you also have to look at your lead generation strategy, then
- 27:09order to examine the call to actions in your in your content,
- 27:13in your videos. That's part of your lead
- 27:14generation strategy. The call to action is just what
- 27:16you want people to do next after they consume your content.
- 27:21So these are some of the questions we should have been
- 27:23asking us ourselves in the conversation.
- 27:27When I said you have one free question, go now.
- 27:31If there's anybody else who is listening to this podcast right
- 27:33now and you are kind of confused about how to use content
- 27:38marketing to grow your business, you're confused or you're
- 27:40curious. It's not a problem.
- 27:41Reach out to me 08064662140. You can call, you can send me a
- 27:48text message or you can send me a WhatsApp message.
- 27:51It's OK. It's all cool.
- 27:53If you want free coaching, no problem, ask and you are
- 28:00entitled to one question only or think very hard about your
- 28:04question is because if you ask a question and the question
- 28:06doesn't make sense, I'm not going to advise you and say ask
- 28:09a different question. I will answer whatever question
- 28:11it is that you ask. So think really hard and fast.
- 28:16But then if there are other significant issues that need to
- 28:19be explored, like all these things I've spoken about and you
- 28:23want me to accompany you along that journey, then let's sit
- 28:27down and we'll come up with something.
- 28:31And I'll do my best to make sure that you have all the answers
- 28:34that you need so that you can succeed in your endeavour of
- 28:39this year, in 2026 or whatever year that you're listening to
- 28:42the podcasts, this podcast episode.
- 28:47And Please remember, if you don't like people telling you
- 28:53something different, please don't reach out to me, because
- 28:56sometimes people reach out and I can tell that they want me to
- 29:00say, OK, yeah, what you're saying is perfect, even though I
- 29:04don't think it's perfect. If you don't like hearing
- 29:06contrary opinions, I beg don't reach out to me because I'm not
- 29:09in the business of massaging egos.
- 29:11I'm not going to tell you everything is cool when clearly
- 29:14I don't think everything is cool.
- 29:16Then if you're not willing to put in the work, please do not
- 29:18reach out to me. Don't.
- 29:22When we have these conversations, it is my
- 29:23understanding that if we talk on a Friday night and we discuss
- 29:27one or two things, it is my understanding that if I buzz you
- 29:29again on Monday, like around that kind noon or 2:00 PM, you
- 29:34would have done one or two things based on the things that
- 29:37we don't discuss on Friday. If you don't like that kind of
- 29:40harassment that we discuss something on Friday, then
- 29:43Monday, you know, at the Chase where they harass you, then
- 29:46please don't call me. And it depends.
- 29:50If you're giving me money, then sure, no problem.
- 29:52You know, I'll call you. You didn't do the work, no
- 29:54problem. At least you paid me.
- 29:59So anybody else who is OK with those times that I've said and
- 30:03yet, then please call me. But I won't massage your ego.
- 30:07I'll tell you the truth as I see fit.
- 30:10And I'm also going to pursue you small because I want to make
- 30:13sure that you make progress in your business.
- 30:15And the reason why it's partially because I care about
- 30:18you, but also because I care about myself.
- 30:21I want people to say that look, that guy, that guy Tavishima,
- 30:25that if you talk to that guy, you will see changes in your
- 30:27life. That is what I want people to
- 30:30say. That's also one of the reasons
- 30:32why I'm chasing you because I care about you because also I
- 30:35care about me too. So that's it.
- 30:39Thank you very much for your time and attention.
- 30:41I will catch you all at some some other time.
- 30:45Let's see. OK, Friday night.
- 30:47OK, no problem. I should make one more recording
- 30:49tomorrow, so I'll catch you guys then.
