No B.S. Guide to Direct Response Social Media Marketing (2nd Edition)

No B.S. Series

By: Dan S. Kennedy, Kim Walsh Phillips

Narrated by: James Romick

Simply broadcasting a message to millions by social media accomplishes little for most businesses. Dan S. Kennedy and Kim Walsh Phillips are here to tell it like it is: If you're not focusing on converting social media traffic into sales, you might as well set your money on fire.

Kennedy and Walsh Phillips teach you the customer-getting, sales-boosting direct-response strategies you must employ with every social media campaign so you can stop accepting non-monetizable "likes" and "shares" as a return on your time. You'll learn: six direct-response principles that must be applied to social media marketing; the most powerful marketing tactic (per Google); how to get riches with niches and become a magnet to your customers; the monetizing magic of crafting effective emails; the number-one way to prevent wasted marketing dollars; five ways to grow your list for free (before spending a dime on advertising); how to turn passive content into an active conversion tool; how to create raving fans who introduce you to their networks; how to turn niches into riches, laser in on your perfect prospects, and ignore the "tire kickers"; and how to harness the biggest secret in social media - offline.

Discover the principles behind successful marketing campaigns and start making dollars and cents out of your social media strategy.

Loved this book! It opened my eyes into all the ways I am supposed to manage IG, FB, LinkedIn, blogs, etc. it filled me up with power instead of making me feel guilty of my extra time using social media for my business. I also have a hyphenated last name, so Kim resonated with me.

Valuable Content, But Missing Accompanying PDF

After listening to this audiobook, a couple of times and finding the content extremely valuable. I was disappointed to find that an accompanying PDF with the figures and references mentioned in the audiobook was not included. The strategies for social media marketing are actionable and well-explained. The step-by-step guides are particularly helpful in boosting organic reach and lead generation.

The narrator references multiple figures throughout the book. Not having access to these figures made it challenging to fully benefit from the resources provided.

Additionally, I would like to suggest adding a button in Audible to allow users to seamlessly purchase a physical copy of books via Amazon. This would make it easier for listeners to access all the resources and references mentioned in the audiobook.

Overall, while the audiobook is informative and engaging, the lack of the accompanying PDF is a significant drawback. I hope the publishers consider including it in the future to enhance the listening experience.
