You've likely heard that a customer needs at least 11 interactions with your brand before they buy.
But for some customers (the ones that matter the most), they need a little more.
They need 7 hours with your brand too!
And that's how we get the 7-11 rule.
7 hours, 11 interactions.
Here's the thing:
Accumulating 7 hours of time with an audience member can be difficult.
Especially when Instagram & TikTok videos are 30 seconds a pop.
To be precise, it would take you 840 reels of 30 seconds to accumulate 7 hours of watch time.
Most brands haven't even posting 840 reels in their lifetime....
This is when long form content becomes the biggest power move there is:
Spanish brand, Nude Project, has a weekly podcast where they share their message: You can achieve anything with passion.
They feature guests and facilitate conversations on the topic of following your dreams and turning your passion into a career.
And being that each episode is about an hour long, building 7 hours worth of relational equity with a viewer becomes somewhat manageable.
See if this helps:
Get yourself an annual subscription to RSS.com podcast hosting
and invite some guests that truly embody your brand.
Someone you look at and think, "that person is the epitome of [YOUR BRAND NAME]".
But what would you talk about!?...
More on that question, tomorrow.
Here to help,
