Chapter 8: What are the common misconceptions about advertising effectiveness?

111.498 - 128.367 Brianna Lester

Just on Shopify, which is... is a ball in the air, you know, like it's not, you know, you just pray to hit a target with Shopify when you're doing any type of advertising outside of that, like with Google or social media and things of that nature, but just literally been on Shopify. We started very small.

0

128.468 - 140.164 Brianna Lester

I started going to local little vendor events and things of that nature years ago, and then have just slowly kind of progressed as the e-commerce space has grown to what is, is, you know, obviously. So.

0

140.144 - 154.322 Noah Wickham

So you guys obviously the retail and just kind of starting in, you know, I guess almost like trade show, but I guess it's probably more local when you're thinking about it. Right. And then, you know, from that, you know, what I guess inspired you to start in the first place?

0

154.994 - 175.553 Brianna Lester

I had things happen in my life and I made designs about them and people kind of resonated with them. So that's literally what it is. It's a kind of it's an artistic thing, I guess, more or less, aside from other things. But that's that's literally it. They're just things I come up with in my head and I put them on shirts and hats.

0

175.673 - 181.879 Brianna Lester

Right now, we've just got this one hat on there that you guys are managing. But we've got other stuff that people just liked and they bought it.

182.028 - 200.754 Noah Wickham

Well, I think that's a common thing when people are starting brands, right, is this idea of, like, sometimes people will be much more of, like, the ideation and, like, the, you know, product SME and whatnot ends up Whereas typically they don't actually know what to do with that. Right.

200.835 - 222.155 Noah Wickham

And it's, it's so interesting whenever, you know, I get to talk to like hundreds and thousands of brands per year. Right. And I think a very common theme amongst many brand owners in general is this idea of like, they can come up with products and like they have products ideas all day long and they know their product inside out. But. they then come and they're like, well, what do I do with this?

222.796 - 232.309 Noah Wickham

How do I get people to actually see this product, buy this product, and what does that actually process look like as a whole? I think it's difficult for anyone, to be honest.

232.73 - 250.169 Brianna Lester

If I could go back in time and spend money in advertising like I am now, I would, and I think I would be a lot further because you're right. You're absolutely right. You come up with this idea, you've got this brand, this design, this thing, and then you're just like, How do I get people to see this?
