šMarketing is hard if youāre in the wrong room.
Where to show up so your offers get noticed.

Hey, itās Kathryn here š
Weāve spent the last few weeks talking about marketing methods that support your energy. Low-energy strategies that work in the background and high-energy strategies that create deeper connections.
But Iām going to burst your bubble for just a secā¦
When it comes to marketing, itās not just about you.
Itās also about where your audience is spending their time.
You can design the most aligned marketing plan in the world, but if your customers never hang out on that platform, youāll feel like youāre shouting into the void.
The key to marketing your business and products sustainably is in creating a layered marketing plan that includes a mix of marketing methods that work with your energy (and meet your customers where they are).
If you havenāt read the emails in the marketing methods series you can read them here:
ā« If marketing is draining youā¦read this.
ā« 6 Low-energy marketing methods that pack a punch.
ā« 7 higher-energy marketing methods that build trust.
ā« Redefining what it means to show up
Letās dive in to todayās newsletter.

š Why this matters
Effective marketing is the overlap between:
ā« Your energy & personality
ā« The marketing methods you enjoy using
ā« Where your customers are actually paying attention
Think of it like a Venn diagram.
When you find the overlap, thatās your sweet spot.
š Low vs High Energy Refresher
Hereās a quick recap of the methods weāve covered:
Low-energy, high-impact methods:
Pinterest Marketing
SEO, GEO + Blogging
Email Marketing & Sequences
Guest Posting
Podcast Interviews
PR Features
Pre-recorded trainings for other peopleās programs
High-energy, high-connection methods:
Live webinars & workshops
Social Media (short-form or long-form)
Running your own community
Speaking on stages, hosting virtual summits/ in-person events
Live video or audio content
Pop-up Q&As or AMA sessions
Challenges or Bootcamps
Some people consider YouTube videos a low-energy method that works in the background because YouTube videos are searchable.
Other people find the creation of videos to be a high-energy method that builds connection with customers in the comments.
It doesnāt matter which one you categorize it as.
What matters is understanding if it matches your energy, where your customers are searching for things, and whether itās the kind of content youāll enjoy creating.
š¬ Examples of meeting them where they are
ā« Do your customers listen to podcasts? If so, which ones?
Thatās a clue that guest podcasting could be worth your time.
ā« Did you know some businesses donāt even use social media?
Instead, they sponsor highly relevant email newsletters. Why?
Because thatās where their customers are already paying attention.
ā« If your ideal buyers are constantly searching for solutions on Google or Pinterest, then showing up in those search results might be far more effective than a social post.
ā« If theyāre professionals who scroll LinkedIn for thought leadership, a well-placed article might land better than a TikTok dance.
ā« If they watch YouTube tutorials, explainer videos, or āday in the lifeā content, a channel could put you directly in front of them.
But rememberā¦
Youāre building a marketing plan that works with your needs as well as your customers.
Letās create a marketing plan that works with your energy, not against it.
In a Your Next 90 strategy session, weāll:
ā« Get clear on whatās working (and whatās not) in your current marketing
ā« Map out the low and high-energy strategies that actually suit your strengths
ā« Build a focused, personalized 90-day plan youāll actually want to follow

šÆ This Weekās Action:
Go through the list of low and high-energy methods above.
For each one, ask:
š Are my customers here?
š Do they consume content in this way?
š If yes, what kind of content are they searching for or engaging with?
Once youāve mapped this out, youāll have a clear picture of where your marketing energy can meet your customerās habits.
š Meme of the week
Me trying to figure out if my audience hangs out on Pinterest or podcasts.
