    How to Spy on Your Ideal Client

    How to Spy on Your Ideal Client

    Ok, so we're not actually spying. But I am going to share some pro tips and hacks to help you get inside of your dream client's mind.

    Why do we want to do that, you may be wondering?

    So we know what they want and need, before they ever even ask.

    This will help us ensure that our copy (any writing done for marketing and advertising) and content (blogs, YouTube videos, podcast episodes and etc) is more compelling - and this makes it more likely that our copy and content will convert (turn someone from a scroller or follower into a paying client!).

    After you listen to this episode, be sure to actually do the exercises mentioned in it! 

    Remember: taking action is what will bring you clarity and move the needle in your business.

Great!

For years I have dreamed of becoming a travel agent. I love to travel and I really love the planning phase of all my adventures. However, I feel so lost as to where or how to start! I stumbled upon this podcast today and I’m excited to keep listening and to get started! I couldn’t find the “future travel agent” Facebook page and the link didn’t work. I’ll keep looking though!

A teacher schooled

I am so excited to find this. A fellow educator and travel (Disney!) enthusiast turned travel advisor, I was searching for the podcast that really resonated with me in the way I want to approach my travel business. I’m very happy to follow this podcast and to lean from you. Thank you!

Very helpful!

I am currently researching to be a travel agent. I have a phone interview through an agency soon and I’m trying to soak up everything that I can! This was helpful AND inspiring. I can’t wait to hear the rest of your episodes. 🙂
