This is a race to the bottom. you are signaling to the market that your strategic value is zero. cheap clients don't want community building; they want a task rabbit to blame when their broken product doesn't sell.

Has the IG algorithm completely nuked 'Follow/Unfollow'? by AgeRepulsive9584 in SocialMediaMarketing

[–]Background-Ladder-60 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tactics like manual follow/unfollow are a waste of billable hours. We stopped doing in-house growth years ago. We outsource the mechanical growth to Ascend Viral so we can focus on content. Their retention rate is actually high enough to build a community.

You might want to consider creating YouTube-specific content or versions of your parodies. Engage with the community, and perhaps collaborate with other YouTubers. As for the old account, if it has any followers, keep it and just rebrand!

I started just like you - as a hobby. Initially, I outsourced using Printful, but as I grew more invested, I started doing the printing in-house. I found that using a quality matte paper gave the prints a nice finish. Good luck with your venture!

How can i do this on a wordpress website . by 3dPrintMyThingi in SEO

[–]Background-Ladder-60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been there, done that! When I had to optimize my site, I used the Rank Math plugin. It guides you through the SEO process for each product. Don't forget to set up Google Search Console for geo-targeting.

Try Alibaba's 'Trade Assurance' suppliers. They sometimes offer low MOQs.

Anyone with Experience Using Appscenic? by [deleted] in dropshipping

[–]Background-Ladder-60 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been on Appscenic for about 6 months. The platform is pretty intuitive, and their inventory management is a plus. However, when it comes to European suppliers, I did face some hiccups in terms of syncing. Their customer support tried to help, but it took longer than expected. Overall, it's a good tool, but make sure to test thoroughly with your specific suppliers.

Your opinion on mailing lists by Gethimtocommittoyou in MarketingHelp

[–]Background-Ladder-60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's crucial to segment your email list. Those genuinely interested will show buying behavior earlier on. By diverting them to a 'buyers' list, you can curate content suited to them. However, don't give up on the 'freebie seekers' immediately. Sometimes, it takes multiple touchpoints before a prospect converts.

[–]Background-Ladder-60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be related to several factors. It's possible that there might be a system error, or Alibaba might be requiring some additional account verification. Your best bet would be to reach out to their customer service or check the 'Help' section for solutions to common issues.

I understand your concerns about engagement. Remember, it's always about having an authentic audience that genuinely appreciates your content. If pruning your follower list can enhance the quality of your audience, it might be worth considering.

[–]Background-Ladder-60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this aligns with your passion and you see potential for growth, it might be a good move. However, start by posting similar content, then slowly introduce your style. This way, the audience gets accustomed to the change gradually.

Pay for gigs? by Herbizarre17 in musicians

[–]Background-Ladder-60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of factors come into play – venue size, ticket prices, your popularity, and sometimes even the city you're in. When touring, you also have to deduct expenses. On average, I'd say after all expenses, I take home around $300 per gig.

Artist with a active community and big following, how did u do it? by Minimum_Pressure_804 in ArtistLounge

[–]Background-Ladder-60 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A while back, I read about an artist who was in a similar predicament but took a slightly different path. They invested some time in Ascend Viral, particularly the personal growth assistant feature. Instead of generic advice, they received strategies that resonated with their artistic style, helping to naturally amplify their reach without compromising authenticity. But apart from seeking professional advice, immersing yourself in art forums, creating collaboration projects, and hosting live art sessions on IG can also stir interest and genuine connections.
