Summary
I am passionate about anything that involves marketing and business.
A little while ago, I wanted to learn how to start a business and for that, I joined an Entrepreneurship course at the
university. There my professor recommended reading 'Zero To One' by Peter Thiel, The Co-founder of PayPal.
In one of the chapters, he mentioned that the entrepreneurs spend so much time in perfecting their products but no
effort on how they will reach to the potential customers. How they will market their product(s) and who will be their first
buyers?
There I decided that before I start my own business, I am going to learn everything to do with marketing so that I can
create a predictable sales system for my business.
Hence, aer finishing that book, I started reading about Marketing, Buying behavior, and Human Psychology.
Aer a while, I wanted to implement what I just learned in the last 6-8 months. But I didn't where to start.
One day, on YouTube I watched a ad for Facebook marketing course by Kevin David and I was kind of enticed about how to
use Facebook for marketing. Therefore, I end up joining the course and understood how all those concepts of marketing,
buying behavior, and some additional ones that I learned fit in Facebook marketing.
However, while I was attending the Facebook marketing course, Kevin was sometimes referring to marketing techniques
of Ryan Deiss, The CEO of digitalmarketer.com
Aer finishing this course, I signed for newsletters from digitalmarketer.com and end up being their lab member. I
learned further concepts of digital marketing and how this can be a key player in helping businesses to grow profitably &
predictably.
So why exactly Digital Marketing? We can actually target only the people whom we want to show our ads to. We will only
pay for our ideal customer to see our ads; this increases our conversion rate and decreases the amount that we have to
spend to convert leads into paying customers!
How awesome is that!!!
Since we are only showing our ads to our ideal customer, we are getting much more for our money. We can spend very
little, to get a lot back in return.
But, before doing anything, we need to first answer these questions:
# Whom Do We Serve (Our Typical Customer Avatars)?
# What Value Do We Provide And How To Articulate That (Developing Statement of Value Or Core Message)?
# How Can We Reach To Customers (Craing Customer Value Journey Canvas)?

Let's find the answers together and leverage digital marketing to acquire more customers for your business profitably &
predictably.
Experience
Social Media Marketer & Strategist I Helping Businesses To Grow
Freelancer
Nov 2019 - Present (8 months +)
I am a freelance marketing specialist in running Facebook, and Instagram ad campaigns for businesses to
generate quality leads and sales in a cost-effective way.
Marketing on Facebook is truly awesome because I can actually target only the people whom I want to show
my clients's ads to. It means paying the ideal customer to see the ads; this increases the conversion rate and
decreases the amount that have to spend for converting leads into paying customers.
I do this by….
# Only showing ads to people highly likely to buy or use the clients' product(s) or service(s)
# Appealing consumer pain points, emotions, and desires to increase conversions
# Optimizing budget so I don’t waste the clients’ money on things that won’t bring any revenue.
Here’s what I do for the clients...
# Create an ads campaign for lead generation to obtain the prospect's name, email, and phone.
Ultimately this is how we capture leads!
# Research and target the clients’ ideal customers. This is how we will obtain cheap leads that convert into real
sales.
# Manage the clients' entire ads campaigns. They get fresh leads emailed or directly to CRM the second they
come in.
Ultimately, my job is to make sure that the clients' businesses are performing at its ultimate best!
GoHighLevel Marketing Automation Specialist I Providing Solutions For Lead Nurturing &
Closing
Freelancer
Mar 2020 - Present (4 months +)
I am a GoHighLevel marketing automation specialist, creating funnels, triggers, campaigns and settings based
on best practices & industry standards for my clients.
Through GoHighLevel, my clients are saving dozens of hours a week in manual follow-up efforts once they get
started... and begin increasing their customer growth in just 7 days or less.
I employ typically 3 main snapshots for various types of businesses that I work with:
1. Brick and mortar (for gyms, fitness centers, dentists, med spas)
2. In house service (for pest control, house cleaning)
Santosh Kumar Vaishya - page 2
3. Phone Call or consulting (for real estate agents, coaches)
Also there are several configurations that I employ with each snapshot to bring awesome results for my clients.
Here one configuration. When I am running Facebook Lead Generation campaign for any client, I integrate
the Facebook lead form into the GoHighLevel. So, if somebody fills the form, they automatically get an SMS
and email as triggered by the action of lead form submission. The SMS and email send a link to the client's
calendar to book an appointment. This action of booking an appointment triggers another set of SMS and
email about appointment confirmation and subsequent remainder SMSs and emails. If the lead doesn't show
up for the appointment then I put the lead in the no show campaign which triggers another set of SMSs and
emails to book another appointment if the lead due to some reasons couldn't make it to last one. This is one
configuration for Facebook ads to nurture and close leads.
I also use another configuration called database reactivation where I utilize a client's old customer database
to bring new appointments. Here we do the SMS and email broadcasting to small chunks of people from the
customer database. The response rate varies from 5% to 15%. Through the database reactivation campaign,
I generate new appointments for the client for free without spending anything on ads. Just utilizing the asset
the client already has.
