Let’s Chat FAQ’s

FAQs or Frequently Asked Questions might feel like a waste of time. But did you know they could actually be essential to your success as a business owner?

It’s no secret that over the past few months I’ve been working to grow my business, update ,my offerings and reinvent my branding. It’s a whole process, filled with mistakes and miss steps that grow into excellent learning opportunities. After months of focusing purely on my clients, I’m now in a growth mindset for my business - taking time to learn and absorb my environment. A big part of this has been looking at what my competitors are doing and asking the question…”Can I do that better?”

The most recent discovery, is the value of FAQ’s.

Personally I always felt like FAQs belonged to specific businesses and industries, having little to now relevance to my marketing work. But every business should have FAQs on their website, social media and wherever they’re promoting themselves on social. Let’s be honest, out of all the content we create as marketers, FAQs are probably the easiest to write. We know our business better than anybody else, all we have to do is explain it to potential clients and customers.

They’re quick, easy, SEO-friendly, and help your website visitors learn everything they need to before they commit to your services. Where is the actual downside?

If you’re still not 100% sure, or even looking for an excuse to ignore this important announcement…I’m here to recruit you, convince you, and enthralled you in the value of a solid Frequently Asked Questions page.
