Not all clients are the right fit and attracting more isn’t always better if they aren’t aligned with your agency’s values and services. In this insightful session, marketing expert Ashley Richards will walk you through how to identify, reach, and convert your ideal clients through smarter, more targeted digital marketing. You’ll explore how to define your dream client using psychographics, values, and long-term fit, not just budget or childcare needs. Learn how to evaluate your website, brand voice, and social content to emotionally connect with your desired audience. You’ll also uncover ways to use testimonials, FAQ content, and story-driven messaging to pre-qualify leads before they even reach out. Ashley will also share expert strategies for narrowing your ad funnel, increasing your ROI, and using written reviews to build trust at every touchpoint. This session is more than a digital marketing how-to, it’s a roadmap for creating a magnetic brand that attracts the right families, not just more families.
