 How do we market for in-person local events? Well, it's actually similar to online marketing because, well, people who are local to you also go online all the time. They surf Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Google, other places. And they also are on the newsletter lists of some of their local yoga studios or organizations or companies, et cetera. So essentially two quick ideas for you. One is local ads, local online ads, and two is local collaborations. So with the local online ads, let me just show you what's possible. I'm gonna share my screen here. So LinkedIn, for example, this is LinkedIn ads. I'm just, I started creating an ad just to show you. In the audience creation section, you could, I could type in San Francisco or I could type in, you know, Austin or whatever and or I could type in, give me another city. I guess London, right? Or Perth, you know, so it's worldwide. You could do, you could do specific cities. And with Facebook ads, not only can you do specific cities, of course, you know, but you could do specific area codes in the United States. Now there might be area codes. I don't know about area codes worldwide. I don't even know US area codes, but for example, where I live, you know, or whatever, I mean, 101, I don't know all the area codes, but oh yeah, look, Budapest, look at this Latvia area code, postal code. I mean, this is how specific. So I wanted to target people in the Latvia postal code within, you know, that's actually it. So I just want to target the Latvians in that particular area, you know? And let's see here, they used to be, actually I'm kind of surprised, they used to be able to say within five miles or within this or within that, you could also make sure you specifically it's people living in this location rather than people who were recently there, meaning I live in California. I was recently in Latvia and Facebook tracked my location because I allowed Facebook to track my location because of whatever local events or whatever I want to check out. So I was there, Facebook knew that from my mobile phone, but people living there who log on to Facebook all the time or Instagram all the time from this location, I could target 13,000 people of this age range, obviously I could change the age range, I could change people who are interested in yoga from this particular area, you know? People, you know, whatever, yoga fitness, right? So now I'm targeting 3,000, 4,000 people, yoga enthusiasts in that particular region, particular of me. So anyway, local ads are, you know, it's how we reach and you could do this on Google ads of course as well, you could reach locally and you know, Yelp ads and other local ads and then local collaboration. So look at, you know, Google, Google search or Yelp search, the yoga studios, the mental health, mental health centers, therapists, you know, any other service providers within that area and contact them and say, will you promote me just because I'm a nice person? No, you wouldn't do that. You would, that's a separate conversation how you approach people to promote you, that's a separate conversation. I'm not prepared to talk about it right now. I have other courses and modules about that, but essentially that's why I just wanted to give you the sense that, yeah, you do, and also meetups, meetup.com has lots of local meetings and if you can become friends or, you know, graciously reach out in a savvy way to the hosts of those meetup groups, they might be willing to promote you, promote your upcoming event, promote your meeting, promote your service locally. So this is how I would do it when I'm, when I do, you know, in-person events, to be honest, I, it's my favorite thing to do ever. I mean, I was gonna say who doesn't, I guess some people don't, but I, if you put people in front of me in a room, that's where I shine the most. I mean, that's like, that's the most George Cow you can have, but I'm too lazy to do it because it's like filling butts and seats virtually. It's so much, it's like, you know, 10 times easier than filling butts and seats locally. And so that's why I don't do in-person events because I'm too lazy to do them, but I love doing it. So if any of you wanna get people together and have me show up, I'll do it. You know, we'll split the money, but yeah, I don't wanna organize it myself. But if you wanted to, because you know, you love it so much too, this is how you do it, local ads, local collaborations. And the more you think about it as a long-term process rather than like, all right, I'm gonna be in Latvia once in my life and ever, I'm gonna create an event there. That's, you have to do a lot of work to get enough people to show up for, nobody knows you in Latvia, right? But if you're gonna be in Latvia ongoingly, like twice a year or once, even once a year, and you want to build a community there over time who knows you, that is a much better strategy because now local ads can work continuously. And like, you know, you can spend $20 monthly Latvia ad, you know, and over time people start to know you there. And every time you go, oh, I'm ready to go there now. Oh my gosh, you know, see you once a year and whatever. So think of it as a more long-term, long-term community process. So hope this helps. If you have any other in-person marketing ideas that have worked for you, how do you get people, how do you get butts in seats for your local events? Comment below. Thanks.
