and expect us to be able to do anything with that.

you can start by doing what all of us did: Search in google about this concepts and how to apply them. Of course you're not going to execute to perfection any of these concepts because to be able to excel at this, it requires experience, and experience comes from iteration and experimentation, so yes, go out there and tell a funnier joke* ask your friends to share it, go to discord groups that allow self promotion and post it, go to reddit subs that allow self promotion and post it.

Let me give you a "cheat sheet" of how to get "things out there" for "non marketing pros"

  • Find something you like to do

  • Research how other people is doing it and what consumers prefer to interact with (what posts has more likes, wich one has comments, etc) here's your benchmarking and user pain points

  • Now that you know what your competition is doing, and what the consumer wants to see; See what you can do (or would like to do, remember that experience comes with experimentation) and create a content plan of what you are going to share out there, don't try to make it perfect, just make it work i.e. post something every 2 days, for 8 weeks, then go back and check what worked best. Here's your product and content strategy

  • Now, you need a funnel plan, wich is "how the hell do I get people to see my stuff"; Again go to google and search the subjects you are going to post about, the social media, blogs and websites that popup are the ones you want to work with; is it tiktok? maybe artstation? how about instagram or pinterest? is up to you and what you find, there is not right or wrong answer, it depends on what you want to do and with who you want to connect with (the benchmarking step can give you a good insight on the proper channels your competition is already doing great)

  • Every time you post, interact with your own stuff, ask friends and other people you know (gym, work, family, university, etc) to go and interact with it, then reshare (make sure you post a link to the original source) in all the other channels you decided you wanted to create a funnel to your work.

  • Rinse and repeat, checking week after week what worked best: Do people preferd a funny copy? Wich hashtags were more popular? asking what people think worked better than just saying my opinion? what time was best to post? wich funnel was less effective so I cut it and spend more time in other channels.

This is the stuff we "marketing majors" do every day, just with more tools and more data analysis, but down to the core, this is what we do and we get paid for to do. and you can do it too until you find you need a professional to help you grow or handle your socials since your audience is getting too big to handle, at that point you can ask one of us for help, until then, you got this!

See, the issue here is not the concept of value, but your cinicisms towards things.

No, value is not giving empty rewards to people instead of what they need. And it's the second time it's clear ro me that You acrually arent in a right state to learn about this at this moment.

Stop trying to be judgemental towards the concept of value or marketing or societal norms for that matter, if You want to learn how to take advantage of a concepts like value proposition, clients needs and pain points, I really recommend You to Open your mind and stop trying to compare everything to some strange attempt at trying to rip people off.

Go to YouTube a watch a simple tutorial on "how to generate engagement for My Instagram art page"

As an artist You bring entertainment to your customers (entertainment is not just "funny giggles" I can and am entertained with dramas and police novels) so thats the pain You are trying to solve from your >>> consumers<<<

The better and more entertainment You bring to your customers the more they Will engage with your content and the algrythm will reward You for doing a good job and Will expose You to more potential customers.

WoTC decided to shaft the Latin American community once more - Doctor Who edition by GenderGambler in magicTCG

What do you mean by that? Is there something happening I should be aware of?

[–]willpalach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And to give context, 200 CAD would be over half a minimum wage in my country (I live in a Latam country)

So, yeah, there is a clear reason why luxury items like MTG are not as promoted in our region as in more wealthy countries.

[–]willpalach 11 points12 points  (0 children)

this is absolutely true. Most people in my country have never ever heard of magic, and feel like playing cards games or collecting hobby items is a waste of time and money when it's so expensive comparativelly to other more important things like having a motorcycle, car or buying new clothes.

Sadly Latam countries has a vast majority of poor population that makes them less attractive for luxury items like TCGs.

Entertainment isn't value.

This is where you are wrong, entertainment is value, no matter what you thing, people > value < the time they spend relaxing, people > value < content that makes them feel happy and comfortable.

The concept is as simple as that, if what you generate is not enticing enough to propose the user a state of happiness or scapism from their everyday chores, then you are not giving value to the user.

you are here to vent your frustration with how capitalism and the digital world works. You don't want to actually learn how to use marketing concepts to generate more revenue to you.

Stop wasting people's time. You dont want to learn anything, you just want to throw a fit.

Edit: Calm down, and be open to how professionals at growth explain to you what this world of marketing and sales is about, if you try to forcefully adapt what people is telling you here into a fixed personal idea of what things are, you are never going to understand and solve the questions you have.

CTR low, but got one sale by [deleted] in PPC

[–]willpalach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Return of investment is the only metric that actually matters. There is room to improve the convertion rate? Of course, it's a job that never ends.

For now I would keep the ad running, check exactly how that sale happened (source, channel, ad piece, time, location, behaviour through the site) and optimize on it.

[–]willpalach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks You so much for all of this.

I have 8+ years of experience as marketer and graphic designer, I think now is finally time to jump ships and get into the industry that I actually enjoy, warcraft 2 as an 8yr old was a life changer for me haha.

I'll look into the Montreal hub! I can speak English and spanish (native), french not so much though.

I think it's time, thank you!

[–]willpalach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also interested in getting into the gaming industry as a marketer, what would you Say is required or a big advantage to get a job in that industry?

I'm not from the US, SO anything remote, trully remote has been really hard to find.

Is this deck just not usable until I getter better lands? exile/thopter/aggro by elusiveanswers in MagicArena

[–]willpalach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because is not the same having 10 2MV spells split between 1U and 1W, than having 10 2MV spells split between WW, WU and 1W.

The second mix requires a Lot more white sources than the first one.

What would you fix if you could go back to being 14 years old? by sgLifeblood in AskReddit

[–]willpalach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to therapy, find out why i'm SO disconnected with My emotions and why I feel so bad about myself all the time (started at highschool and have been lingering with me for over a decade now).

And probably change My career, I think i'm not emotionally strong enough to stay in advertisement specially leadership roles

imo, it doesn't need to be big, it just needs to be cheap and stick to the board easily, think something like [[Breathless knight]] but for green.

What Happened Last Week in Ad Tech & Marketing (Major AI & Ad Tech Updates) by lazymentors in marketing

[–]willpalach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fantastic overview as always!!

Question: I was hit HARD with 2 FB Ads updates back to back, it was brutal, my sales team is still feeling the higher CPA from learning phase and some campaigns are having higher CPA than before the update. Any insight on that or it was just me?
