NF Paid My Dues Views In Under 2 Hours

NF has done a phenomenal job at connecting and branding himself with his fans. The best and hardest thing we can do as business owners is creating a brand everyone wants to be associated with. The significance about branding versus selling is if NF was “Selling” every time he released a new song, he would ultimately be relying on the radio and everyone else to “judge” and review his song before it went viral; however, since he has branded himself, all he had to do was educate his fans about the new song “Paid My Dues, and second create a “fear of missing out” opportunity by saying “Tune in at this time.”

Marketing and Branding

The first thing we can learn from NF and his new song Paid My Dues Debut is that we as business owners and marketers must create a sense of urgency by letting our followers know this is a limited time deal, adding First come – first serve, and creating a separation anxiety type of feeling almost.

Next, we must “set the table” with our audience. Boldy and publicly state your intentions and why your customers should trust and follow your brand. Like NF, what we must do is create a brand strategy around you with a profit mobile-first strategy. A profit mobile-first strategy is simply creating everything you are doing around the Mobile phone and connecting with all of your customers on their most protected device… their cell phone!

As Successful as NF’s new song launch was from purely organic traffic, meaning no heavy advertising, there is however one thing that we as business owners can do better that he could have used to generate even more traffic and that is to create a Word Of Mouth Strategy.
