    Early on, I spread our budget across every channel until I learned to focus on what actually moved the needle. What worked: 1. I tracked where our best customers came from referrals and one social platform stood out. 2. I paused everything else and put time into building authentic content and relationships there. 3. I asked existing clients what caught their attention and doubled down on that. Focusing on what works saved money and built stronger results. Less guesswork, more traction.

    Antes que nada, haciendo foco en el publico destino de tu empresa, es una tarea muy difícil pero que brinda gran cantidad de información a la hora de revisar tu perfil de oferente y publico objetivo. Luego realizar el cruce con las herramientas disponibles y el tipo de publicidad que puedes emprender, sin nunca perder el foco en la vigilancia de los resultados y las métricas, con ello podrás realizar ajustes en función de tus objetivos pudiendo variar también toda tu estrategia. Es un sistema de prueba y error constante ya que un publico cambiante en su composición y demanda hace que tu empresa se mantenga dinámica y permeable a los cambios.

    Em vez de investir em mídias pagas caras, comece com canais como: • Redes sociais com maior presença do seu público-alvo (por exemplo, Instagram ou WhatsApp Business para varejo e serviços). • Google Meu Negócio – gratuito e poderoso para negócios locais. • Parcerias com microinfluenciadores locais – engajados • Use pesquisas simples com os próprios clientes (WhatsApp, formulário Google ou até no balcão). • Analise os dados do Instagram (como alcance e engajamento) e do WhatsApp Business (mensagens mais respondidas). • Ter chamada para ação clara (ex: “Chame no WhatsApp para orçamento”, “Responda esse story com sua dúvida”). • Ser adaptada ao canal (ex: vídeos curtos no Reels, imagens explicativas no feed, status direto no WhatsApp)
