Looking for a strategy to get the best return on your Clubhouse time?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, you\u2019ll discover how your business can benefit from Clubhouse and learn a six-step strategy to maximize the return on the time you invest on the platform.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why Businesses Should Consider Clubhouse<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re a business owner or marketer, Clubhouse offers some unique advantages that make it worth considering.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Clubhouse, you don\u2019t have to chase down your target market every time you log on. Your audience is already there and they want to engage in a conversation with you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As Clubhouse is a live audio platform, you can hear them speak when you bring people onto the stage to ask a question. You can learn about your audience\u2019s concerns and desires directly from them. It\u2019s as close to a real-life conversation as you\u2019re going to get on a virtual platform.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The voice-only aspect makes Clubhouse a valuable content creation vehicle as well. It\u2019s much easier than live video because people don\u2019t have to get camera-ready to participate\u2014all they need is a headset and their phone. With the real-time nature of the content and the ease of bringing people into the discussion, Clubhouse allows you to have meaningful conversations and build know, like, and trust with your audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re just getting started on Clubhouse, you can be seen as an authority without having an audience right away. You can connect with people and get visibility by participating in other people\u2019s rooms and collaborating with them. Then once you get a feel for the platform, start creating and hosting your rooms.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The PROFIT System: Develop a Clubhouse Strategy for Your Business<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you\u2019re a business owner, marketer, or voice representing your brand, Clubhouse can be an effective and efficient virtual marketing tool and a fast way to organic and on-demand traffic. But to make the most of the time you invest in the platform, you need to strategically align how you use it with your overall business goals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following this six-part system (with the acronym PROFIT) will help you develop a Clubhouse strategy that works for you:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Positioning:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Determine how you want people to perceive or experience you on Clubhouse and then convey it through your messaging.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Return on intention:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When you go to Clubhouse, it\u2019s important to know your intention for being there. First and foremost, you also always want to add value. But in addition to that, you also need to know how you\u2019re going to add to your overall strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Offer:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Some of the people who hear you speak on Clubhouse will want to continue the conversation or deepen their relationship with you. Make sure you have an offer in place you can give them in exchange for their information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Funnel:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Create a funnel that allows people to take a series of steps with you in their journey that will deepen their relationship with you, establish you as an authority, and prompt them to further engage with you by purchasing your products or services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Intentional traffic and conversion:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Show your audience that you\u2019re the best at what you do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Tracking the data:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It\u2019s important to track what you\u2019re doing on Clubhouse so you can continue to optimize your efforts or adjust your strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now let\u2019s look closer at how you can develop your positioning, intention, and offer for Clubhouse.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>#1: Establish Your Positioning on Clubhouse<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Outlining a strategy for Clubhouse starts with knowing how you want people to perceive you on the platform. This step is critical because when you\u2019re clear about what you want to be known for, what problems you\u2019re solving, and what sets you apart from others, people will begin to see you as an authority.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Include a Positioning Statement in Your Clubhouse Bio<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you\u2019re in a room on Clubhouse, there are three actions you can take: listen to someone speak, view their bio, or click on the Twitter or Instagram link in their bio. Even if you\u2019re not speaking, people will be looking at your bio and it should tell them everything they need to know about you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clubhouse makes it easy for people to quickly scan individual bios while they\u2019re listening and the action doesn\u2019t disrupt the room. Most of the time, people will look at your bio when you\u2019re up on the stage or followed by somebody who\u2019s up on stage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your bio is important to your positioning so you want to share your story, give any pertinent information that establishes you as an expert or authority in your niche, and\/or explain what you do or want to be known for. Then when people hear you speak, it will solidify what\u2019s in your bio.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6899\" src=\"http:\/\/thedigitalcauldron.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/clubhouse-profile.png\" alt=\"screenshot of a clubhouse profile\" width=\"315\" height=\"589\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, your bio should include the topics you want to talk about. That way, if people are interested in collaborating on those topics, they\u2019ll know to come to you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Provide Value in Clubhouse Rooms to Establish Your Expertise<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another part of your positioning is what you say when you\u2019re in a room. With the culture on Clubhouse, you can\u2019t simply tell people you\u2019re an expert and list your credentials. Yes, you want to be seen as an expert, but you do that by adding value to the conversation. Just touting yourself or your product or service is a surefire way not to get invited on stage again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you\u2019re invited to ask a question in a room, there\u2019s a certain etiquette to follow. Typically, start with, \u201cMy question is\u2026.\u201d and then ask your question clearly and concisely. Don\u2019t give a long backstory\u2014if someone needs to know more information, they\u2019ll ask you. If you\u2019re collaborating with someone, you can go into a little more detail but it\u2019s still important to introduce yourself succinctly. This is where your bio does the work so you don\u2019t have to.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you establish a reputation for asking good questions and enhancing the conversation, people will begin following you, moderators will start choosing you from the lineup of people whose hands are raised, and people will ask to collaborate with you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Use Consistent Messaging on Your Twitter and Instagram Profiles<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The third part of your positioning on Clubhouse involves your Twitter and Instagram profiles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People who are interested in what you have to say on Clubhouse will check out your bio and click over to your Twitter and\/or Instagram profiles to further engage with you. You don\u2019t want a disconnect in how you position yourself among your various accounts. Anything you represent, talk about or have in your bio on Clubhouse should match the messaging people find on your Instagram and Twitter profiles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>#2: Set Expectations for Your Time on Clubhouse<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another key element of an effective Clubhouse strategy is setting an intention for being on the platform. Every time you\u2019re in a room, you\u2019re investing your time. As with anything you invest in, you should expect to get a return on your investment, or in this case, your intention. If you don\u2019t know what that intention is, you\u2019ll just end up wasting time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Clubhouse culture, the first intention is always to add value; that\u2019s non-negotiable. Every other intention you set will provide focus on the value you\u2019re adding. But your intention shouldn\u2019t be so rigid that you can\u2019t adjust it if an opportunity presents itself, such as if someone you want to collaborate with enters the room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to providing value, one of your intentions might be to get DMs in your inbox. In this case, you expect to provide so much value that people will DM you on Twitter or Instagram to have a private conversation, which could lead to something downstream.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you develop products and services for your business, your intention might be to do market research by listening to the audience in rooms centred around your niche. You could jot down the questions you hear from the audience and turn them into your next piece of content you create or the next room you host. This research will help you better understand your audience so you can craft messaging that will speak to them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other intentions could be to curate a great conversation with like-minded individuals, collaborate with other industry experts, or increase the authority for your positioning. Whatever your intention is, knowing what it is will help you determine if you\u2019ve invested your time wisely.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>#3: Design an Offer to Generate Ongoing Engagement<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the biggest challenges for marketers on Clubhouse is, \u201cIf I\u2019m not supposed to pitch, how do I have an offer on Clubhouse?\u201d Because your first intention on the platform is always to add value, your offer is just an extension of that. It\u2019s something of value that solves an immediate need or meets the desire of the audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Offering them something useful in exchange for their information plays a big role in continuing the conversation once a Clubhouse room has ended. When people opt in to your offer, they\u2019ll continue to hear from you so you can keep the conversation going, deepen the relationship, and develop trust. The point of your offer, in this case, is to get ongoing engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s say you regularly host Clubhouse rooms and want to get people to show up every week and engage and participate. Whenever you host a room, you could share a URL with listeners where they can go to see future Clubhouse rooms you\u2019ve scheduled and sign up to receive automatic calendar invites every time you have a new room. The value to your audience is they won\u2019t miss out on any rooms and you\u2019ll be able to continue communicating with them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your offer could also be a downloadable resource of value to your audience. Tell the audience in your room to DM you on Instagram to get the link, which would allow you to start a dialogue. The other benefit is that when someone DMs you, they become an audience you can retarget with ads if you have a free or paid offer you want to send them to.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Head over to our blogs section and read all about the digital marketing trends and stay up-to-date.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With over a decade experience, we\u2019ve established ourselves as one of the pioneering agencies in the region.
