In this episode of the Your Digital Marketing Coach podcast, we’re taking a deep dive into a platform that’s often overlooked in digital marketing — YouTube. With so much talk around LinkedIn, TikTok, and even AI-driven search, it’s easy to forget that YouTube is the second largest search engine and a massive opportunity for both B2C and B2B marketers. My guest, YouTube expert Dane Golden, shares why YouTube is more than just a place to post videos — it's a powerful engine for growing trust, building relationships, and driving real business results. If you’re not using YouTube strategically yet, now’s the time to rethink how it fits into your digital marketing mix.Guest LinksConnect with Dane on LinkedInDane's Agency VidActionDane's YouTube Ads PodcastLearn More: Buy Digital Threads: https://nealschaffer.com/digitalthreadsamazon Buy Maximizing LinkedIn for Business Growth: https://nealschaffer.com/maximizinglinkedinamazon Join My Digital First Mastermind: https://nealschaffer.com/membership/ Learn about My Fractional CMO Consulting Services: https://nealschaffer.com/cmo Download My Free Ebooks Here: https://nealschaffer.com/books/ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/nealschaffer All My Podcast Show Notes: https://podcast.nealschaffer.com

If you’re creating content without repurposing it, you’re leaving value — and reach — on the table. In this episode, I break down my complete framework for turning a single piece of long-form “anchor content” into over 50 separate pieces of content across social, blogs, newsletters, and video platforms. Content is your most powerful digital marketing tool, but only if you treat it like the asset it truly is. This episode is for anyone who wants to grow their online brand, expand their reach, and save time by working smarter, not harder.Learn More: Buy Digital Threads: https://nealschaffer.com/digitalthreadsamazon Buy Maximizing LinkedIn for Business Growth: https://nealschaffer.com/maximizinglinkedinamazon Join My Digital First Mastermind: https://nealschaffer.com/membership/ Learn about My Fractional CMO Consulting Services: https://nealschaffer.com/cmo Download My Free Ebooks Here: https://nealschaffer.com/books/ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/nealschaffer All My Podcast Show Notes: https://podcast.nealschaffer.com

In today's episode of the Your Digital Marketing Coach podcast, I’m diving into something most people take for granted—the social media dashboard. You might still be using a tool built for posting links and photos, but today’s platforms demand more, especially with the rise of short-form video. This is a big deal, because the way you manage and share content can make or break your marketing efforts. I’ll share my personal journey of finding a better tool, and how switching dashboards helped me save time, create better posts, and get more out of my strategy. If you're serious about growing your brand and reaching people with the right kind of content, this is a must-listen.Some Social Media Dashboards Mentioned in This Podcast (affiliate links)BufferSocialBeeVista SocialOcoyaSendibleLaterSprout SocialSocialPilotLearn More: Buy Digital Threads: https://nealschaffer.com/digitalthreadsamazon Buy Maximizing LinkedIn for Business Growth: https://nealschaffer.com/maximizinglinkedinamazon Join My Digital First Mastermind: https://nealschaffer.com/membership/ Learn about My Fractional CMO Consulting Services: https://nealschaffer.com/cmo Download My Free Ebooks Here: https://nealschaffer.com/books/ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/nealschaffer All My Podcast Show Notes: https://podcast.nealschaffer.com

Your website is your digital storefront — so are you tracking the right things to make sure it's actually working for your business? In this episode of the Your Digital Marketing Coach podcast, I talk with analytics expert Philippa Gamse about what most marketers are missing when it comes to website data.

Website analytics aren't just for tech folks — they’re essential for growing your brand, increasing conversions, and turning more visitors into real customers. Philippa helps break it all down so any business owner can start making smart, informed changes today.Guest LinksConnect with Philippa on LinkedInWebsites that WinLearn More: Buy Digital Threads: https://nealschaffer.com/digitalthreadsamazon Buy Maximizing LinkedIn for Business Growth: https://nealschaffer.com/maximizinglinkedinamazon Join My Digital First Mastermind: https://nealschaffer.com/membership/ Learn about My Fractional CMO Consulting Services: https://nealschaffer.com/cmo Download My Free Ebooks Here: https://nealschaffer.com/books/ Subscribe to my YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/nealschaffer All My Podcast Show Notes: https://podcast.nealschaffer.com
