Billy Gene: 我认为现代营销中最重要的是要真实地展现自我。很多人在镜头前会刻意改变自己的性格,试图迎合大众的喜好,但这往往适得其反。我自己的成功经验表明,真实地展现自我,才能与客户建立更有效的联系,从而提升销售额。我利用AI和自动化工具来提高工作效率,这让我有更多时间陪伴家人和做自己喜欢的事情。同时,我也帮助许多小型企业利用AI技术来简化运营流程,例如内容创作和客户跟进。这不仅能帮助他们节省时间和成本,还能提高他们的工作效率和盈利能力。 我坚信,AI技术正在彻底改变在线营销行业,就像当年从传真机到电子邮件的转变一样。大多数企业主由于太忙、懒惰或不愿学习新事物而错失了AI带来的机遇。但实际上,AI工具的使用门槛并不高,即使是非技术人员也能轻松上手。 对于那些想要增加销售额的企业来说,最有效的策略就是增加向客户推销产品的次数。这并不意味着要采用高压的销售手段,而是要充分利用各种营销渠道,例如视频广告,来触达更多的潜在客户。视频广告制作简单,成本低廉,而且可以无限扩展,覆盖全球受众。 我曾经与许多大型企业合作,例如Kia、Massage Envy和Procter & Gamble,这些企业与小型企业面临着许多共同的挑战,例如如何与客户建立有效的沟通。关键在于要记住,无论面对的是大型企业还是小型企业,你最终面对的都是人。 我的目标随着人生阶段的变化而变化,从最初的摆脱困境到现在的回馈社会。我现在的目标是回馈社会,帮助更多人获得成功。我为此感到非常自豪,因为我的事业能够同时兼顾个人价值和社会责任。 Mick Hunt: 我完全同意Billy Gene关于‘努力工作’文化应该演变为‘我可以做任何我想做的事’的观点。战略比单纯的努力更重要,真正的赚钱之道在于培养高需求技能,而不是寻找投机取巧的捷径。 Billy Gene提到的AI技术在营销领域的应用,也让我联想到了我自己的经历。在疫情期间,我帮助许多企业学习使用Zoom,并因此获得了巨大的成功。这让我意识到,未来将是‘实施即服务’的时代,人们不再仅仅需要软件本身,更需要能够熟练运用软件并帮助他人使用软件的人才。 Billy Gene强调的增加销售额的关键在于增加向客户推销产品的次数,这让我想到一个重要的点:很多人在毕业之后就停止了学习,他们认为时间和经验会带来智慧,但事实并非如此。只有不断学习新的技能和知识,才能在竞争激烈的市场中脱颖而出。 我非常欣赏Billy Gene的成功,以及他将个人价值观与商业目标相结合的方式。他所展现出的自信、热情和对事业的执着追求,都值得我们学习和借鉴。

Shownotes Transcript

Billy Gene is a trailblazing marketing genius, entrepreneur, and educator renowned for his dynamic approach to online advertising and business growth. Having helped thousands of entrepreneurs and major brands like Kia, Massage Envy, and Procter & Gamble, Billy Gene is celebrated for turning high-level marketing strategies into accessible, actionable advice. With a passion for leveraging AI and automation, he focuses on empowering everyday business owners to scale, automate, and dominate their industries— all while encouraging them to show up authentically and unapologetically.

Takeaways:

AI-Driven Opportunity: Automation and artificial intelligence are revolutionizing marketing, making powerful results accessible even for those without tech expertise. Helping small businesses implement AI solutions is a major, untapped opportunity.

Be Authentically You: The biggest mistake people make in ads is losing their personality and becoming robotic on camera. Authenticity and showing your true self are what drive connection and sales.

Ask More, Scale More: If you want to scale your business, you need to amplify how often you ask people to buy—especially through simple, scalable video ads instead of relying on old-school hustle.

Sound Bites:

"Most business owners are either too busy or too lazy or just simply unwilling to learn something new... but with AI, you do not have to be techy anymore."

"If you can use artificial intelligence to make that content with them, to follow up for them... what's that worth to you? Thousands of dollars a month? Of course it is."

"The simplest strategy is: ask more people to buy by using video, because video can scale infinitely in anywhere around the world. That is the answer."

Quote by Mick Hunt: "Side hustle is great, but strategy is important. The hustle culture at some point has to evolve to, 'I can do what the heck I want to do.'"
