Here is a rundown on everything we talked about today:
A Brief History of The Influencer Collective
Jenn Sherman was in the PR industry for most of her career. During her time, focused on PR work, she found a very strong similarity between the social media and digital worlds.
And with that, Jenn took the plunge and founded her own digital agency where she focuses on only digital marketing.
“The digital world is all about data,” explains Jenn. But data is such a huge umbrella term for the many tools that fall under it. You have branches of digital data like lead generation, email marketing, automation, social media, and content marketing. These elements make up the influencer collective.
Jenn talked more about the gist of how the influencer collective has come about, “I think there is a need in the market for quality content that can break through the noise of the digital world.”
Jenn Sherman works with a wide spectrum of digital media and helps amplify the influence of thought leaders. And she makes sure that the content they publish targets the right consumers.
An important side of the story on the Influencer Collective history is the obstacles that Jenn has faced. We talked about some of the biggest problems with modern digital marketing among small businesses that Jenn has helped decode with clients.
Real Estate Marketing in the Modern Digital Scene
What are some of the biggest problems that real estate marketers and small businesses are facing in modern digital marketing?
Jenn’s passion is for small businesses across America. But with entrepreneurship, it can be tough to make it.
“I look at the statistics of how many businesses fail and it is very sad,” observed Jenn. “The real problem lies in the lack of resources and education.”
For Jenn Sherman, it is our job as practitioners to help small businesses increase the visibility of their brand. One good solution to the lack of leads, resources, or education is to tune into programs like Real Estate Growth Hackers Show.
The internet is brimming with excellent free advice! It is something that Gary Vaynerchuck says all the time. But no matter how good a piece of advice is, it falls upon the people who listen whether or not they execute those ideas.
Jenn explained, “It might not work the first time, it might even take you six months or a year to get traction. But you can’t give up on doing that. You have to leverage those resources.”
For small businesses running a two or three-person team, her advice is to work smart, “It’s just a matter of being scrappy in that regard.”
