Ladies and gentlemen, welcome. Another episode of the Real Estate Marketing Dude podcast and welcome. What we going to chat about today is how to follow people around the Internet. Have you ever been shopping? Maybe if you're a woman, you're shopping for shoes. I know you are. Don't lie to me. And if you are, that shoe started following you all over the internet.00:08:42:18 - 00:09:03:19UnknownThat's called retargeting. If you're dude, man, I know maybe you're looking at an ax throwing shit banger golf simulator, whatever the hell it is, but also that thing's following you all over the internet. The reason why remarketing is so important is not is because you are not that important. And people might see you, they might interact with you, they might message you once, they might visit your website.00:09:03:21 - 00:09:22:10UnknownBut it is such a busy world that literally they're going to forget that they were even there 24 hours later and no one converts on the first touch, much like your significant other did it either. You made her laugh, you dated her, you bought her flowers. I don't know what you did, but you did something. And it happened over multiple touches and eventually you won him over.00:09:22:12 - 00:09:38:13UnknownThat's sort of the idea here with retargeting. And what we're going to be chatting about is that how do you get more of your content seen? And then more importantly, how do you make sure it gets to them? Because a lot of people just make but also making content. And if you're not running ads well and your content isn't good organically, well then how is anyone going to see it?00:09:38:13 - 00:09:56:16UnknownSo we're going to solve all those problems on today's episode. And without further ado, I want to go ahead and introduce our guest today who is the CEO of Sweet Street Text. Right. Thank you. And Mr. Stephen Whiting, he's really cold right now because he's like in the thunder, like, I think he's like an Antarctica or something. But welcome to the show.00:09:56:16 - 00:10:14:10UnknownWhy don't you tell our listeners hello and say tell us a little bit about yourself, what you do. Thanks, Mike. I'm super excited to be here. Yeah, big Arctic front just blew in and the office is freezing. So if it sounds like I am, my teeth are clattering. They most certainly are, yes. So my name is Steve Whiting, as Mike mentioned, CEO of Street Techs.00:10:14:10 - 00:10:40:09UnknownSo we make it really, really easy to run effective ads on Instagram and Facebook to generate leads. That's kind of been the main thing that a lot of people know us about. But what they don't really know behind the scenes is that to be successful on those platforms, it's really about building up the content, the no lack of trust and having a lot of rotating content that's going to warm people up and help you convert those leads because you know it's top of funnel and but the industry is changing.00:10:40:09 - 00:10:58:12UnknownYou know, a lot of businesses, things are changing in the marketplace. And if you understand the concepts that will go through today and you can put implement them into your business, it's a complete game changer.
