On today’s podcast, I had fun chatting with Aidan, the brains behind SOA Marketing Agency, about all things branding, marketing, and getting your name out there through PR. Aidan started with an internship at MIT and became fed up with outdated marketing strategies. So, like any boss, he launched his own agency! Now, he’s all about helping businesses build a strong online presence, and trust me, he’s got gems to drop.
One major takeaway? Your Instagram is basically your digital business card, so make sure it’s on point!
We also talked about how AI is shaking up the content game. Aidan’s using tools like ChatGPT to save time and create content faster, but he’s clear that you still need that human touch to make it shine. His advice? Once you land any media features, don’t be shy—share it on your socials, add it to your website, and send it to your email list to keep the momentum going!
Boost Your Brand with These 5 Actionable PR and Marketing Tips from Aidan Sowa
1. Optimize Your Instagram Profile
Optimizing your Instagram profile helps you create a clear, cohesive brand presence that attracts the right audience. A well-structured bio, high-quality profile image, and strategic use of highlights make a strong first impression, while a consistent theme and call-to-actions guide visitors toward engaging with your content, following your account, or taking desired actions like visiting your website or booking a service.
2. Use Free PR Platforms
Using free PR platforms offers businesses and entrepreneurs an opportunity to gain visibility and credibility without the cost of traditional PR services. These platforms allow you to connect with journalists, contribute expert insights, and get featured in media outlets, boosting your authority and brand recognition. It’s a cost-effective way to reach a broader audience, drive traffic to your website, and build trust with potential clients or customers through third-party validation.
3. Invest in Paid PR
Investing in paid PR gives you targeted access to top-tier media, ensuring your brand’s message reaches the right audience quickly and effectively. It offers professional guidance, faster results, and higher-quality placements, boosting your brand’s visibility, authority, and credibility.
4. Leverage AI for Content Creation
Leveraging AI for content creation streamlines the process by generating high-quality, engaging content quickly and efficiently. It helps with idea generation, editing, and optimization, allowing for personalized and scalable content that aligns with audience preferences. AI tools can also analyze data to improve SEO and engagement, freeing up time for creators to focus on strategy and creativity.
5. Maximize Your Media Coverage
Maximizing media coverage for your business increases brand awareness, builds credibility, and positions you as an industry leader. It attracts new customers, drives website traffic, and can lead to partnerships or business opportunities. Consistent exposure also strengthens your brand’s reputation, making it easier to stand out from competitors and remain top of mind with your audience.
