7 Digital Marketing Trends For 2019 - Your Chance To Stay Ahead Of Your Competition


hey miles here miles Becker calm this
video reveals my seven top digital
marketing trends for 2019 the goal of
this video is to help you stay on the
leading edge of digital marketing so you
can make sure that you are ahead of the
crowd and you are getting the lion's
share of the clicks and conversions so
number one Facebook ads are going to
continue to get more expensive now
there's several reasons why this is
happening first off in 2017 Facebook
started running out of ad inventory
inside of their newsfeed product which
means if you are an advertiser buying
space in the newsfeed they actually for
certain demographics didn't have enough
content published from the users to mix
in the advertisements with since it's an
auction platform this means supply and
demand takes over and the price goes up
now this is not true for every segment
but for the big-time segments that a lot
of people focus on it is mix that with
the fact that the number of monthly
active subscriber growth has slowed
significantly the number of people
leaving Facebook because of the privacy
scandals and all that other stuff that's
going on is also not helping this
situation and third you have the FTC the
Federal Trade Commission in the United
States who is looking at potentially
putting a fine on Facebook for some of
their data breaches it's been leaked
that that might be one of the largest
fines they have ever placed on a
corporation not to mention what's going
on in Europe with the GDP our laws that
Facebook is pretty much in breach of as
well so there's a chance that Facebook's
gonna get hit with some big-time fines
and then they're gonna need to make up
that money to make their investors happy
where's that money gonna come from
advertisers so I'm still buying traffic
but I am definitely taking some of my ad
budget away and I've been placing it
into other areas recently to make sure
that I'm ready for when Facebook is no
longer a viable pay-per-click method
based on the numbers so number two is an
increased focus on conversion rate
optimization this dovetails into number
one for sure
people who have been all-in on facebook
advertising and they're watching their
ads costs go up that means they're
watching their cost
LEED go up and their cost for new
customer acquisition is going up as well
what can you as a digital marketer or
business owners do to fight that well
split testing right conversion rate
optimisation is a huge way for you to be
able to get more leads and more sales
with the same ad budget so I think more
and more businesses are gonna realize
that hey we're putting in a ton of money
into our advertising and/or we're
putting in a ton of our energy into
content marketing we should be taking
time to split test our opt-in pages or
calls to actions our sales pages so we
can make sure we're maximizing the
return on energy and/or ad spend so I
think the conversion rate optimisation
is going to grow to be something that's
even more talked about and more
commonplace for businesses right now I
still think that it's only the leading
edge businesses in this world and also
I've taught how to do a/b split testing
on your WordPress website on your
funnels on WordPress I'll definitely
have that video linked to in the
description if you're not yet doing any
sort of split testing now is the time to
get started number three I believe
there's gonna be more digital marketers
publishing on YouTube now there are some
astounding statistics about YouTube if
you haven't googled it and read through
any of the statistics I highly recommend
you take a moment to you know Facebook
has been touted as an amazing platform
with two billion monthly active users
I found that YouTube is currently
running at about 1.9 billion monthly
active users which is right on the heels
of Facebook and used to YouTube does
have a fairly large segment of
individuals who use their platform who
never actually log in because YouTube
videos can be embedded in blog posts and
you could just use their search engine
and you can watch videos without ever
logging in so it is a behemoth is
actually the number two platform
compared to Facebook and again it's
right on the heels some really powerful
numbers from the different demographic
groups right so that 18 to 24 and 18 to
34 year old segment which is the most
valuable segment for advertisers has a
huge propensity to watch videos on
YouTube in the 18 to 24 segment 96
percent of them have watched videos on
YouTube
YouTube reaches more 18 to 34 year-old
men than any cable network on television
which is crazy to think about but then
you might wonder about well what about
the the 60s and 70s out there well 51
percent of 75 year olds and older have
watched youtube videos so everyone in
the you know over 50% of every age group
is watching youtube videos you mix that
with the fact that about 5 hours a day
is the average on how much television
most people in America watch going on
with the whole cord cutting thing of
stopping to pay for cable TV and
starting to shift the viewing online
that's just gonna continue YouTube is
going to grow massively then as kind of
from the standpoint of digital marketers
to create a blog and to get written
content out there on a blog the barrier
of entry is extremely low you could use
a free wordpress.com site you can go buy
some rubbish content milk content and
publish it up there you never have to
put your face out there you never have
to put yourself out there you can just
pretty much put out search engine spam
and that's what's happening there's over
a billion blogs today in the world
putting out content whereas on YouTube
many many people in our world are
extremely afraid of taking that kind of
leap to go on record to go on camera and
to be on camera looking into a camera
lens like I'm doing now without red
light flashing saying you're being
recorded
just get some people to freeze up so
there's a higher barrier to entry which
means that there's more opportunity for
those marketers who are willing to kind
of publish on the platform and everyone
starts out a little rough and bumpy on
their world of YouTube but we get better
as we do it more often so I think for
those reasons more and more people are
gonna be shifting their energy over to
YouTube and I think that YouTube has one
of the more exciting advertising
platforms coming out I'm getting some
incredible low cost per views right now
and running
I'm not running call-to-action ads I'm
just running ads to a lot of my videos
that are out there the numbers are
looking astounding and I'm going to
start doing some more call-to-action ads
as well number four podcast listener
ship is going to continue to explode the
year-over-year numbers for podcast
listener ship just continue to grow and
grow the female demographic is the
fastest growing demographic although
there are more men
who listen to podcasts right now and
I've got a theory about why this is and
it's really important to always think
about when you get these data points why
why is that that's where you can really
get those aha moments to realize if your
people are on that platform and if that
channel makes sense for you to really go
all-in on and I call this the the
parental challenge right so a lot of
parents with kids whether they're their
toddlers or newborns or young preteens
tweens whatever they are you know
parents with kids have very very limited
time to themselves the ability for a
parent who's got two or three kids to
sit down and read a book for an hour or
to read a few articles on their phone is
extremely limited but they have the
ability and the time to put on their
earbuds and listen while they're
cleaning while they're at the gym while
they're driving the kids around to
soccer practice there's a lot of
potential for these individuals and
these demographics to consume content in
audio format where they can't sit down
and watch a video and they don't have
the freedom to sit down and read a book
because of their lifestyle with the kids
so a lot of these individuals are
realizing that they can entertain
themselves that they can grow personally
through personal development and/or
learn kind of professional things within
their industry because there's podcasts
on every single topic in just about
every single industry out there so if
you have the parental demographic right
the late 30 the 35 to 55 year old
demographic if they are somebody you're
trying to reach podcasting may be a
great place to reach them and I think
more and more people are gonna consume
more podcasts and I think more and more
marketers are gonna be publishing
podcasts this dovetails with the last
one of the YouTube channel all of my
videos that don't do screen shares
actually make it on to a podcast feed if
you haven't found that yet you can just
search for miles bechler in your podcast
app and I've got over 300 episodes there
for these types of people people who
can't sit down and watch a video but
while they're commuting while they're on
the train while they're at the gym they
can still fill their mind with positive
empowering messages and helpful ideas
about digital marketing you could be
doing this for your audience as well
number five omni-channel marketing you
know I went to the Affiliate Summit West
conference in Las Vegas I heard Ryan
dice speak I heard Neil Patel speak I
got to do this really cool in person sit
down with Neil Patel there was about 20
of us we got to ask him questions the
big buzz word from that entire event was
omni-channel marketing big brands and
big businesses are no longer all in on
that one ad platform that for so long
was Facebook advertising many of these
businesses are spreading their money out
across many different channels and the
theory is that even if you're doing
brand based advertising the fact that
you're showing up more often in more
places and you're getting exposure for
your brand your brand story and your
content on many different platforms
really increases the trust that your
audience has with you because we expect
brands that are trustworthy to be
everywhere this is a part of why we're
now running pay-per-click ads on
Pinterest for my wife's content for her
pins these are not call-to-action pins
these are just to get more reach on the
Pinterest platform we're also running
pay-per-view ads here on YouTube for my
wife and my best videos to make sure
we're just reaching larger demographic
segments and of course we're still doing
our Facebook advertising even though
we've decreased those numbers a little
bit here's the interesting kicker and
this is what Neil Patel convinced me of
that got me over the hump to really kind
of start investing in his omni-channel
marketing was he has clear data that
when he began running advertisements on
YouTube on Google and on the other
platforms his facebook ads ad spend the
cost per click the cost per conversion
actually went down and has something to
do with his branding it's extremely
difficult to track that's one of my next
challenges in 2019 is how to track the
efficiency of this but when Neil Patel
is saying clearly that he believes
beyond a shadow of a doubt that his
investment in advertising on additional
platforms helped him get better numbers
on his core platform I was all-in
I began testing it and the numbers for
us our OTO sales month-over-month have
grown more in the last month than they
have in quite a while so there is
definitely something going on here
number six the increased focused on the
power of brand there's two sides of this
I already talked a little bit about the
side of this which is the pay-per-click
side the willingness to pay to get your
messages out to get your best content
out because it's your best content and
when people watch your best videos when
they consume your best content not just
your call to action content then that
likeability increases that trust ability
increases and you're able to grow your
audience right so that's the one side
and we've already kind of talked about
that the other side is when you become
the default person or the default brand
that users search in the search engines
it actually helps your rankings for all
of your keyword phrases let me give you
an example for this so when someone goes
to YouTube and they search miles
Bechtler SEO or miles Beckler Facebook
ads or miles Beckler something else face
or excuse me YouTube is realizing that
miles Beckler is the brand and then
there's a keyword associated with it and
as more and more people search for the
brand along with the information that
they want it actually increases the
authority of the entire channel the same
can be true on a blog when someone
searches for my wife's brand plus
meditation or my wife's brand plus
Channel messages etc it actually
increases her rankings for all the
hundreds of thousands of keyword phrases
that drive traffic to her web site each
and every single month when someone goes
and searches for Rachael Ray pots and
pans because they've watched Rachael Ray
they believe in the Rachel Ray brand and
Amazon and Google and YouTube are seeing
all of these searches around Rachael Ray
this Rachael Ray that the power of brand
has taken over on the organic side as
well so are you building a brand are you
making sure that your brand has a very
kind of cohesive feel every single video
I start with my name and my domain com
so when somebody thinks hmm I wonder
where I could learn XYZ they might just
have a moment of miles bechler miles
vector com let me go search miles
bechler comma digital nomads does miles
have any content on digital nomads
when that starts to happen my rankings
for all my keywords go up up up so the
increase power of brand works on two
levels the paid level and also the
organic level and that's going to
to get more and more important number
seven finally here greater demand for
digital marketing help now what do I
mean by digital marketing help I think
that clearly this is in alignment with
local businesses local marketing agency
running the Google my business kind of
optimization as well as helping local
businesses get on the map packs I think
it helps with getting them more reviews
creating review systems so people can
get better reviews for local businesses
but this goes way beyond local
businesses to be perfectly honest
there's more of a need now than ever for
podcast editing services right for
professional video editing services for
individuals to go work with YouTube
influencers and help them take their
videos and cut up 60-second spots so
they can run those on Instagram and
Facebook right there's a lot of
additional services that all of the
different brands and all of the
different companies that use digital
marketing in one way or another they all
continue to need support whether they're
all in on a digital business like I am
or even when they run a bricks and
mortar business and they just need a
local SEO agency or a local WordPress
consultant to help them dial in their
sites so they can rank better for their
core keywords as our world continues to
go more digital with more ecommerce
going on digital more research for
e-commerce and more research for bricks
and mortar purchases happening online
those who are being found on the search
engines those who are running efficient
funnels with Facebook advertising those
who are optimizing their funnels the
need for a professional conversion rate
optimisation specialists will only
continue to go up year-over-year so what
I'm getting at here is even if you're
not building an affiliate marketing
brand based on a specific niche that you
love and you haven't found that thing
inside of your heart that makes you
saying that you just want to share with
the world you might still be able to
find a way to take all of this knowledge
and your interests in the world of
digital marketing and apply it to local
businesses apply it to digital
businesses I hire a team of we have 12
plus people I pay each and every month
because they're all adding value and
they're all helping me grow my business
so my support for this business that my
wife and I run literally takes care of
many people right if you think about
their families that they're supporting
with his income it really is a big
ripple effect and you're gonna find more
and more businesses both bricks and
mortar and all in on digital are gonna
need that kind of support so there's
another great need for you I was able to
go full time online fastest by offering
digital marketing services selling
services is always going to be a faster
path to 10 grand a month than it is to
grow a niche site I personally did both
at the same time and once that niche
site took over I just went all-in on
that and I let the client work go but
the client work served me greatly for
about four years and I think that's just
gonna get more and more valuable and
that's it that's the whole video so I
hope you've enjoyed this if you know
somebody who's in the world of digital
marketing who runs a business and maybe
doesn't think about digital marketing
