HIGHLIGHTS Creating an athleisure product category with $1,000Building an online brand with micro influencers and ambassadorsOrganic funnels and global shifts to online business grows endūrGrowing an ambassador program with genuine passionQUOTESRob: "We're talking one sale a day, sometimes zero sales a day. This was a very long slow burn. Over a year in, there were some days where we wouldn't have one Shopify sale. These things take time. We didn't really start paying to acquire customers for at least two years in."Rob: "I wouldn't say oh, overnight we tripled our spend on Facebook or anything like that. We just continued. So I would say the majority of the growth came from the organic funnels we had built and just the organic referral and people talking about the product."Rob: "I just wanted to be a voice in the conversation that was like, business is hard. You should make a profit. Raising money is not as cool as you think it is. I was just annoyed with the overwhelming voices of the young startup founders thinking that it's all about status."You can connect with Rob in the links below:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robbfraser/Twitter: https://twitter.com/robbfraser/Website: https://www.endurapparel.com/

Also, not just for more chefs and more spices, but also it's at home cooks haven't tried something like this before."Ori: "The pandemic broke people's regular behavior of going into the grocery store because grocery was out or nobody wants to step foot. People started Googling best spices, best cinnamon, best bay leaves, all that stuff, and we were right there ready for them."Ori: "When we hit about a thousand members, all of a sudden we had 3 or 4 people that were these more heavy-duty super influencers that they wanted to post, they're posting everyday, they were sharing these incredible meals, they were such talented cooks. It was really impressive to see it all."You can connect with Ori in the links below:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/orizohar/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/burlapandbarrel/Website - https://www.burlapandbarrel.com/Email - ori@burlapandbarrel.com
HIGHLIGHTSA different PR strategy based on personalization and trustBe prepared and thorough when pitching to journalists Choosing the right clients with or without media training PR and SEO: A unique offering that anticipates bad links QUOTESTyler: "It all comes down to building relationships and building trust with producers, with journalists, with editors on why we're going to bring value time and time again... Once we bring them one or two quality guests and quality appearances, they trust us and they're more willing to take a chance on a third or fourth."Tyler: "This is part of our secret sauce, Zach, is taking time to be timely and be thorough and to be comprehensive in our responses and to get those back to the journalist in a timely fashion. Or the producer, whomever. So, that way, we're making their job as easy as possible and we're setting them up for success."Tyler: "Number one, first and foremost, make sure that you have your house in order. And then, number two, make sure that your entire team is briefed on the strategy and is ready to take advantage of it."You can connect with Tyler in the links below:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/tylersickmeyer/Twitter - https://twitter.com/tsickmeyerWebsite - https://fidelitasdevelopment.com/

So the smaller local list might get more newsletter because they're on the general list and the local list."You can connect with Elaine and EH Chocolatier in the links below:Website - https://www.ehchocolatier.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ehchocolatier/

They're more likely to come back, they're more likely to spend more, when you combine the power of your digital marketing campaigns and offline direct mail campaigns."Michael: "We have robotic technology that literally holds a pen, holds a pen to paper, writes the card out in completely authentic handwriting... it sends an actual handwritten card with a handwritten envelope and a real stamp on it to that customer.

This week’s episode of the Zero to a Million Podcast with Zach Rego features Chris Meade, CEO and co-founder of CROSSNET. He recalls how they came up with the idea of a crossnet as a fun mashup of their favorite games and how they made up the rules as they played it.Chris shares their go-to-market strategy of just playing the game and their marketing strategies which leaned heavily on Facebook ads. One of their first main obstacles was their messaging as different people with literally different voices would speak to the market on various platforms differently.LinkedIn has also been massive in connecting Chris with people who he thinks are great fits for Crossnet. He shares the difficulties in finding a trusted and reliable PR agency to get eyeballs, and how they work today with Amazon agencies for PPC and others for Google and Facebook ads and email.SHOW NOTESHIGHLIGHTS Inventing Crossnet: The cross between four square and volleyballGoing to market by demoing the game in Miami and word of mouthMarketing: Paid ads on Facebook and unifying brand message across platformsFinding true partnerships in PR, Amazon, Google ads, Facebook ads and emailConnecting on LinkedInRetail support and building communication with buyersQUOTESChris: "Everyone talks about proof of concept and all this garbage. That was our proof of concept. We just played and we had fun and we're like, alright, let's get to work."Chris: "It's all about the messaging, making sure they're playing correctly because nobody wants to buy a product that they're playing terribly. It looks awful. It's all about getting them outside and actually playing and getting them to be a part of our community."Chris: "We never paid for press a day in our life. It was reaching out and being genuine. The best thing has been LinkedIn for us. I built up a very, very nice LinkedIn following. I love to read, I don't know about  you, but I genuinely enjoy reading good entrepreneurial pieces."You can connect with Chris in the links below:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAAlGNrQBqj1pCKbD1o4lNdalsiF6Arb5rJs/Website - https://www.crossnetgame.com/

It's a little bit more dev work."23:38 Gihan: "Most of the people who land on a Kickstarter video, it was like 60% of it, of the people that came to the page would watch the entire two minute video.

You need to pay for performance. You don't have the cash flows to say, hey, in six months I get the customer, unless like your LTVs or margins or your AOV is insane."You can connect with David in the links below:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-roger-2a9b2632/Website - https://felixgray.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/felixgrays/Twitter - https://twitter.com/felixgrays

So I know what I want and I can create kind of a rough sketch. Figma is a program I use a lot for just laying things out." 08:33 "I didn't want to make a product for the 1%, you know, like what's the point? The people that can pay a zillion dollars or something, they already have access to everything and all that."12:05 "If you have a great product, try to find someone that knows how to speak your message to people. Because if you're a great product that you don't know how to get out there, it's not going to go anywhere."19:54 "You have people that make a good initial contact but like how do they finish the journey? And you just kind of lose people along the way organically, that's just what happens, but you need to address kind of all those things."27:31 "Social, I think, is important across any type of brand and any type of product, but your purpose on there may not actually be conversion. It may just be awareness, and it may be that they need to deep diver deeper and go to your site and then you're in a whole different experience versus probably that lower price point product."You can connect with Albert in the links below:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/albertmatheny/Website - https://promixnutrition.com/

We'll validate the business with one product, we'll do it amazingly well, and we'll go from there."10:43 "We also did have a landing page, website, initial Instagram, kind of building the brand, building the email list, building the Instagram followers, before we even had any product to sell."14:23 "Organic search can take 2 to 3 months to begin to build up that SEO value and we didn't see other people doing that. And so we worked on that very early on and that's really paid off. Today, I think the majority of our traffic still comes from organic search."20:48 "It's about creating community. It's about creating acceptance. And we'll get the parent that's like ah, my kid just came out, I don't know what to do, and we'll say okay well, hey, check out some of these stories."30:27 "SMS, I think, opens up the way to get back in that customer's front and center. I think SMS will probably go the way of email and we'll end up with SMS promotional folders and all that stuff. But for now, we're getting in, we're getting to the customer."You can connect with Laura and Kelly in the links below:Website - https://kirrinfinch.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/kirrinfinch/Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@kirrinfinchLinkedIn (Laura) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/laura-moffat-57a1563/LinkedIn (Kelly) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/kelly-moffat-she-her-3b699156/

So that was a great option and something that has continued to grow and really be steady.08:41 "The different four streams of revenue, they really lean on each other. So we were able to really drive home this message of direct to consumer shipping through our brick and mortar locations... a bunch of different tourist traffic."15:39 "It's really important for us to kind of win people back by explaining to them the process of no, you can order the ice cream on this date if you want to get it on this date or have it shipped this way, if you need to save on this."You can connect with Melissa in the links below:Website - https://tipsyscoop.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/tipsyscoop/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissa-tavss-a3a55833/

Insert whatever thing is. It could be in a shopping cart. It could be they buy something over the phone."06:07 "The smaller stores, I would say like under a mil a year in sales, all the avatar exercises are all well and good, but at the end of the day, fundamentally, it's what they need is very simple; they need to capture leads efficiently from all their paid and organic channels."17:37 "If we send a campaign every week, at what point after we've sent X amount to someone, do we say that this person probably is not interested in what we have to say or sell anymore?"21:00 "If we have amassed so many one-time customers that aren't becoming two-time customers, how do we unlock that? How do we unlock that customer journey and extract all of that opportunity that's literally hiding underneath the surface."29:40 "We just have to adapt to the new playing field.

You're not making anything new, you're just upcycling."09:19 "We also work in Austin, Texas with a nonprofit that employs immigrants and refugees and they make the quilts as well. So we've really tried to build in our mission through our supply chain. And it may not be the reason that people buy, but we know that every time there's a purchase, it's creating value in the world." 18:19 "It's a mistake that I see a lot of e-commerce companies making early on is not focusing on email lead capture as soon as possible."22:42 "I think our story was much more interesting early on when we were just trying all over the place, trying to figure everything out. And now it's a story of spreadsheets and analytics and looking at week over week results, which is not the best podcast story, but it's the reality of an e-commerce business."You can connect with Nathan in the links below:Website - https://www.projectrepat.com/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathanrothstein/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/projectrepatusa/

Make sure that, hey, by opting-in to receive text messages from this specific brand, you're going to be on a VIP list."11:05 "If you're coming into Emotive or another SMS provider and you're looking to get that list grown really quickly. Again, use that email list that you already have to send out an opt-in for SMS and say, hey, you know, we just rolled out SMS."16:18 "Where the industry is definitely moving away from is just those typical one-way blast.

We just didn't want to out people."16:41 "They would share it with their psychologist and we started doing outreach to psychologists. So then it was sort of a two-way street of either a patient was telling their psychologist or psychologist was telling their patient.

This week’s episode of the Zero to a Million Podcast with Zach Rego features Antoine Gagné, Founder & CEO at J7 Media. The release of iOS14 brought a massive change to the effectiveness of Facebook ads. By prompting users to opt out of data tracking, CPM numbers began to reflect inaccuracies which have severely affected companies depending on Facebook ads as their main line of business. This change brought to the forefront the necessity of integrating other channels to ensure profitability. Companies can also deploy creative ways to warm up audiences to them prior to Black Friday. This is now necessary to keep up with the new algorithm changes within Facebook because of iOS14. Antoine suggests investing in email databases and creating VIP lists.  To fully maximize the effect of video as an advertising medium, merchants can first use a test video shot on an iPhone as a proof of concept before investing huge amounts of money on succeeding iterations. You can connect with Antoine in the link below.LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/antoine-gagn%C3%A9-69a94366/HIGHLIGHTS 01:51 iOS14 opt out and greater mobility post-COVID dropped online shopping rates 05:37 CPM reflected inaccurate numbers, requiring companies to use other channels11:26 Strategies for companies to ensure profitability outside of Facebook ads16:24 Preparing for holiday sales with Facebook after iOS1420:48 Focusing not on the data lost but the data retained within Facebook23:17 Maximize returns on video advertisements by creating test videos first28:23 Strategy for urgency: Honest in your message based on historical data30:29 Connect with AntoineQUOTES09:15 "For a lot of companies at that specific moment, you need to explain to them, if you're only relying on Facebook ads to run your company, it's not sustainable. You need to be sure you have a big email list, an organic strategy, making sure that you're able to acquire customers on different channels."14:40 "If you're not spending enough time and enough money to build a real brand, I do think you could be in trouble in a couple of months, couple of years, because not it will be that easy anymore to just launch a business and then hope that you have a good funnel in Facebook and that's it."18:49 "Most of the time, 50% of the budget and sometimes even more will be spent between November 1st and November 26. So we warm up our audiences there. And what we do at this specific period of time, we spend on acquiring emails, creating what we call VIP lists."21:47 "The concept is you need to warm up your audience before the big day and, after that, you need to retarget these people but you're going to lose signals because of iOS14 so make sure that the audiences that you're building are built inside the Facebook platform."25:37 "The first video is done with an iPhone. As simple as that. Because with an iPhone, the video that will be created, we can test it in 24 hours and see if the concept is good. And if the concept is good, we go to another step and then we improve the quality of the production."Want to learn more about Unstack? Head on over to https://unstack.com
