Speaker 1 What's up, everybody? And welcome back to the Level Up Podcast. I'm Paul Alex, and today we're going to be talking about something that can completely transform your business.

Speaker 1 The most underrated marketing strategies that actually work. These aren't the flashy trends that everyone's chasing right now in 2025.

Speaker 1 I'm talking about simple, effective strategies that deliver real results. So let's get into it, guys.
First, word of mouth marketing, aka guerrilla marketing. I know it sounds old school.

Speaker 1 Well, remind you, I'm an old school millennial, but here's the thing. People trust recommendations from other people more than any ad you can run.

Speaker 1 If you're delivering exceptional value, your customers will talk and that kind of organic promotion is priceless.

Speaker 1 When I built my three businesses, I made sure my clients felt like vips okay and guess what they became my biggest advocates focus on creating an experience people can't stop talking about guys second email marketing listen social media is great but you don't own those platforms guys you got to have an email list on the other hand is yours you got to think about that it's direct personal and still one of the most highest return on investment channels in the game.

Speaker 1 I used my email campaigns to educate, connect with, and convert so many prospects into lifelong customers, guys.

Speaker 1 If you're not building and nurturing an email list, you're leaving so much money on the table. And lastly, I'm a big advocate of this, community building.

Speaker 1 I say stick to Facebook group, guys, but now with new platforms like School, S-K-O-O-L, a local meetup or a digital mastermind, building a community creates loyalty like nothing else.

Speaker 1 People want to belong. They want to connect with each other, who share the same goals.
That's why I've always invested into creating spaces where my clients can learn, grow, and collaborate, guys.

Speaker 1 When you build a community, you're not just selling, you're creating a movement. Look, guys, the bottom line here, the best marketing strategies aren't always the flashiest.

Speaker 1 They're actually the ones that connect, engage, and build trust. Word of mouth, email marketing, and community building are underrated for a reason.
It creates work for the actual operator.

Speaker 1 So if you do them right, they're game changers, not only in business, but in life. Thanks for tuning in to the Love All Podcast, guys.
