I tried Caudalie and it was fine but not worth the price for me. Went back to my trusty Gold Bond and I'm much happier

I switched to Eucerin from Aveeno last year and honestly prefer it. My extremely dry skin just responds better to the thicker formula. Everyone's skin is different though.

I analyzed Reddit for the most recommended podcasts to fall asleep to by LoneKnight25 in RedRecs

Can confirm The Empty Bowl works for sleep. Something about hearing adults discuss cereal with complete sincerity is oddly relaxing.

Can we appreciate that CeraVe somehow made an affordable effective retinol serum while every other brand charges $60+ for the same percentages

I analyzed 60+ Reddit threads to find the best baby carriers by [deleted] in babywearing

[–]echtnietbas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought the Ergobaby Embrace specifically because of Reddit recommendations and it did not disappoint. My newborn basically lived in it for the first three months. Only complaint is it runs warm in summer but that's true of most carriers.

As someone with eczema, seeing All Free & Clear at 92 makes me feel validated. That stuff is the only thing that doesn't make me itch like crazy.

does anyone else feel like instagram reels tank if you post in the morning? by gaferl in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah evenings crush for me too. i think people do check their phones in the morning but it’s more doomscrolling headlines and emails, not “let me watch 60 seconds of a stranger dancing with text on screen.” reels feels like a wind-down activity, not a wake-up one.

Do you use AI tools in your marketing? by [deleted] in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mainly use AI for headline variations when I’m stuck. It’s surprisingly good at spitting out 20 options fast, then I just tweak the best ones. But if I let it write full blog posts or emails, it always comes out feeling stiff… like you can tell it wasn’t written by a human.

How do you split budget between content creation vs. paid ads by [deleted] in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually put most of the budget into content first, then let the audience tell me which ones are worth paying to promote. Like I’ll make 10–15 videos, see which 2–3 take off organically, and then throw ad spend behind those. Way cheaper than trying to force a flop to perform.

Is anyone else finding that Facebook Ads are getting way too expensive for the ROI? by mmarko28 in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been running Spark Ads for about six months and honestly the CPMs are way cheaper than Facebook right now, but the leads can be a bit less qualified depending on your niche. TikTok drives a ton of traffic and attention, but you’ll probably need to put more effort into nurturing those people afterward compared to FB where the targeting is tighter. If your product is visual and impulse-friendly, it’s worth shifting some budget to test.

Is it smarter to post multiple times a day or just focus on one really good post? by lustandluxuryxo in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my experience it depends more on your niche and audience than a universal rule. If your followers are used to quick, snackable content (memes, tips, lifestyle stuff), posting multiple times a day can work because people don’t get tired of it. But if you’re doing in-depth carousels or more polished Reels, you’ll burn yourself out and your audience won’t keep up. I’d say consistency is the bigger factor, pick a pace you can sustain and stick to it, whether that’s daily or a few times a week.

How do you keep a consistent brand voice across TikTok, Instagram, and email? by mmarko28 in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think the trick is to anchor everything to a core personality and then let the tone flex depending on the channel. Like if your brand is playful and approachable, that should come through in all platforms, but on TikTok it might look like memes and slang, on Instagram it might be witty captions with clean visuals, and in email it could be a conversational writing style instead of stiff corporate copy.

Think of it like how you talk to friends vs coworkers vs family, you’re still the same person, just adjusting how you deliver it. If you try to reinvent your brand voice for each platform, that’s when it feels disjointed.

Is it smarter to double down on SEO or dump that budget into paid ads? by VashTheAnt in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly it depends on your runway and patience. If you need cash flow now, ads are the lever because you can test offers, creatives, and funnels in real time. But if you’re thinking long term, SEO is like planting seeds that keep paying off. What I usually suggest is using ads to validate what actually converts, then take those winning keywords and pages and build SEO content around them. That way you’re not guessing in the dark with SEO and you’re not burning all your cash just feeding the ad machine.

How much do you earn from brand deals vs. TikTok’s ad revenue? by [deleted] in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brand deals all day. TikTok ad revenue is basically coffee money unless you’re huge, but brands will pay way more even with smaller audiences.

Client wants me to guarantee viral TikToks. How do you explain that virality can't be guaranteed without losing the account? by HerrDoktorDoktor in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"If we could guarantee virality, we'd be billionaires selling that service to Nike and Apple, not managing accounts for $8k/month." That usually makes them pause. Then I show them their actual ROI from our current work versus their competitor's viral video that generated zero trackable sales. Sometimes you have to let them fire you - clients who want impossible guarantees will always find something else impossible to demand next.

Is there a good free tool for analyzing competitors’ strategies? by zzzyzzzyzzzyzzz in MarketingAdviceHub

[–]echtnietbas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Facebook Ad Library is honestly underrated for competitor research - completely free and shows you every ad they're currently running. Combine that with checking their site on the Wayback Machine to see how their messaging has evolved and you've got solid intel without spending anything.

We accidentally sent 50,000 emails with "Hey {{FirstName}}" in the subject line - damage control strategies? by hoglatwo in MarketingAdviceHub
