You're Losing 99.9% of Your Leads (Here's How to Follow Up Until They Say Yes).Most businesses don't even track their visitors. If you don't have Google Analytics or a way to know when somebody comes to your site, you're missing out on 99.9% of your leads.In this video, I'm going to break down exactly how we're able to follow up with our leads on every channel over and over until they say yes and how you can do it as well.This channel is no fluff. I'm just going to share my screen, show you how you can do it so you can get results.CHAPTERS:0:00 - Why You're Losing 99.9% of Your Leads0:45 - How to Track Visitors and Stop Lead Leakage1:30 - How to Create Educational Content That Converts2:45 - How to Train AI to Talk and Act Like You4:00 - How to Write Personal Style Follow-Up Emails5:15 - How to Connect Leads Across Multiple Platforms6:30 - How to Set Up Automated Follow-Up Sequences7:15 - How to Run Low-Cost Retargeting Ads That WorkSTEP-BY-STEP EDUCATION:Step 1: Track Your Visitors ProperlyYou can't follow up with people if you don't have tracking and pixels set up. You need to know how many visitors are hitting your site, how many people are hitting your CRM versus how many are just leaving. The average website gets a 0.01% conversion rate - somebody comes to your blog and leaves without filling out the form.Step 2: Create Helpful Educational Content WeeklyCreate a YouTube video every single week that generates all your other content. If your new lead just sees you selling and making generic, boring social media posts, they don't care. They're just going to go to the next brand. But if you're creating educational content and they learn from you, they're more likely to become a customer.Step 3: Train AI with Your Voice and StyleUpload your YouTube videos so AI starts learning what you say, the words you say, how you say it, your sense of humor, and it can create helpful content based on what you're teaching. If you're not comfortable on camera, speak into audio and record your voice and upload that transcription.Step 4: Follow Up with Personal EmailsWrite emails by speaking into your phone. The main goal when following up is to ask them questions about them, not tell them about you because they don't care about you yet. Ask more questions, get them to respond - if they respond to that email, you're more likely to stay in their inbox.Step 5: Connect Across All PlatformsGet them to connect on LinkedIn after they've seen your video, joined your newsletter, read your blog, saw your Twitter post. You want to show up in their email consistently, show up in their LinkedIn profile, and wherever you're most active.Step 6: Set Up Automated SequencesAdd them to automation that keeps you top of mind so you don't need to post every single day. Email them every other day, and after about five relationship-building emails, add them to the newsletter. Step 7: Run Retargeting AdsSet up low-cost retargeting ads to anyone that hits the site. We don't need more people, we need to follow up with the people we already have. COMMON QUESTIONS ANSWERED:Q: What if I don't have time to create content and follow up manually?Get an assistant or have a company help you. Either way you need to do it because you're going to be left behind. Q: How often should I follow up with leads?Email them every other day for about five relationship-building emails, then add them to your newsletter for consistent top-of-mind awareness. Q: Which platforms should I focus on for retargeting?You really only need to start with three platforms, but as your brand grows, follow up on every platform - Google, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok, everywhere. Q: How much should I spend on retargeting ads?Start spending $25/day or about $1,000/month if you can. You don't need to spend much - we don't need more people, we need to follow up with the people we already have.

Don't follow trends, focus on building awareness and providing value. Test with low budgets, find winners, then scale. Use organic posts with existing engagement to build social authority.Author: Brad Smith https://x.com/bradsmithcoachCompany: AutomationLinks https://www.automationlinks.com/

This builds brand authority and helps you show up in AI search results where people trust you 22% more than Google.Step 3: Strategic YouTube AdvertisingDon't run annoying pre-roll ads.

Multiple touchpoints across platforms increase recognition3. Strategic ads put you in front of ideal customers4. Viewers become leads, leads become customersCOMMON QUESTIONS ANSWERED:Q: How often should I post YouTube videos?Start with one video per week if you're new. Once you're comfortable and have systems in place, aim for three times per week. Consistency matters more than frequency.Q: Do I need expensive equipment to start?No. I use simple screen recording software like Tella. Focus on providing value and education rather than perfect production quality. Good content with average video quality beats perfect video quality with poor content.Q: How long should my videos be?Keep your hook under 30 seconds, then break down your content into clear steps. Educational videos can be 5-15 minutes. The key is providing complete value while keeping people engaged throughout.Q: When should I start running YouTube ads?Have at least 3 high-quality educational videos published and be posting consistently for a few weeks before starting ads.

It's the wild, wild west, baby. Things have changed. Google just made a huge change to make sure that they dominate the market and to actually restrict these AI crawlers from finding your business. My podcast is going to break down exactly what you should do to be the top search result in AI searches. I think right now is the wild, wild west. It's the gold mine where you can actually go be that top search result. Now, AI knows if you're a spam bot and you're going out there and you're trying to get these links into all these businesses to try to get better results and scam the system, they're going to shut you down. And it's the legitimate, trustworthy business owners that do the right thing, but also create the best content that's helpful and educational. That that's what's going to be the ones that stand out.Four common questions:Q: How do I get my business to show up in ChatGPT search results?A: Create helpful "how-to" YouTube videos, transcribe them into authentic blog content, and distribute across 9 key platforms including podcasts, LinkedIn articles, Medium, and Reddit. AI engines prioritize genuine, educational content over spam.Q: What type of content ranks highest in AI search engines?A: Educational content that answers specific questions starting with "how to" or "what is" related to your business. The key is using your authentic voice through video transcriptions rather than AI-generated text, as AI can detect and prioritize genuine human content.Q: Which platforms should I focus on for AI SEO in 2025?A: Start with YouTube (Google owns it), then expand to podcasts, your website blog, LinkedIn articles, Medium, X/Twitter articles, Reddit, and email newsletters. Also create short-form content for Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, and YouTube Shorts.Q: How long does it take to see results from AI SEO strategies?A: With proper indexing techniques, you can see YouTube videos ranking on Google's first page within 6 days. However, building comprehensive authority across all platforms typically takes 2-4 weeks for initial traction, with long-term growth occurring over months of consistent implementation.

Hey team, in this podcast I am explaining you the beginning stages of my BAM Framework I'm putting together. If you want to be notified when the framework is finished please comment BAM so I'll add you to the list. The first stage is building the sales funnel. We have a 6 step process to build the funnel that we know converts. Step #1 is the pain point your customer is looking for. Step #2 is the 3 general solutions you offer to fix their pain points. Step #3 will be the personal side, like a video or image to introduce yourself and why you're a trusted source. Step #4 is where you will give them the exact services you offer. Step #5 will be where you provide testimonials that match the services. And last but not least is step #6 where you give them a free offer in exchange for their contact information. Stay tuned to see the next section of the BAM Framework! https://www.automationlinks.com/start

Here are the 6 steps to creating a video for the homepage of your website. View the entire article here www.AutomationLinks.com/how-to-make-a-website-video. 1. Introduce the main pain point, you can only choose one so make sure it's general and will serve the majority of your audience. 2. Introduce yourself in 1 to 2 sentences. Your name and your position and leave it at that. Remember you can switch the order from step #1 and #2 if you'd like. 3. Tell them they're in the right place! 4. Talk about 3-6 services you offer and why they will solve their pain points. Why did you create them, why do you offer them and how can it help the viewer? 5. Touch on 1-2 testimonials, reviews or case studies relating to your services and/or pain point. What were the results, how did you fix their frustrations and make the viewer related to someone like them. 6. Tell the viewer where to go next! The majority of websites are "information" based when they really need to guide the customer down the sales funnel. If you're a service-based business tell them to fill out the form to get more information, schedule a call or just call you. If you're an eCommerce store tell them what the checkout experience is like and what they can expect when it comes to shipping. Remember the average website only gets a 0.01% signup rate. By adding relationship builders like videos that are personal you can raise your conversions by up to 7%!
