IMPACT+ (All members)

As we spend more and more time on video we've all seen a lot of our coworkers and friends backgrounds. But have you ever wondered what THEY see?

I want to know what YOU see!

What's your setup like? What's your daily view? What's the one thing on your desk you can't live without?

If you've got some cool gear let us know what camera or mic you use. Favorite brand of dry erase marker? Color-coded post it notes (me) or pens ( Chris Duprey )?

Drop a pic below and let me know what's most important to you about your desk setup!

Here's mine - featuring different colored Post-it notes for different things, my atr2100 mic for the Hubcast, an HD camera and ring light (which I rarely use) the window that gives me most of my light and a nice view,... See More

Hey All!
Interested to see what types of questions you ask in an application for positions at your company to pre-qualify candidates. I am looking to steer away from an automatic personality/cognitive test right at the application stage. Does your company have open-ended questions that stick out to identify ideal candidates right out of the gate?

I'd like to know what the IMPACT crew thinks the average number of SQLS per quarter should be for a company that is nailing the TAYA/IMPACT approach. And to follow that up, number of customers. Connor DeLaney Liz Moorehead See More

I have recently started working for a business that is not necessarily naturally "engaging", but the company- which belongs to the freight-hauling industry- actually produces some awesome sustainability initiatives and has a very strong internal brand. As I am putting together a social strategy for them, are there any businesses that you could share as inspiration for examples of solid brand promo through digital channels? See More

Yeah, literally. I fell on my face back at IMPACT Live 2019 and I fell again this weekend.

But I fall metaphorically way more often than I fall literally. Okay, somewhat more often.

Sometimes when I work really hard on a campaign, optimizing copy and tweaking button text for days (or weeks), it can be really hard to see it totally flop.

It always makes me feel a little better to commiserate with others who understand before I pick myself back up and try again.

So, tell me your stories. When have you totally failed, flopped, missed the mark, etc. with your digital sales and marketing and what did you learn? How did you pick yourself back up? Help a girl out. See More

I feel like I'm in somewhat of a niche market as the marketing director for an air medical company. We provide pilots/mechanics for air medical aircraft (mostly helicopters).

I downloaded the "how to do keyword research" playbook and I can't seem to hone in on keywords that have really high search volume besides: how much is a helicopter helicopter parts and a few airframe specific searches
And those are in relation to completions, which we also do.

How do you go about finding your keywords when it seems no one is doing much searching? I am hoping to use data like this to get my team on board with more content, but I'm a little disheartened. Most of the search volume for phrases like "aircraft operations," "children's hospital... See More

Does anyone have a really great social media content calendar template that they love and would be willing to share? We're looking to create an internal doc that we can use to keep track of each day's post (caption, hashtags, links) and the title of the blog article or video if included (for easy searching). Would also love to include a notes area. And keep track of what days of the week we can promote in local FB communities, as well as some fun/random types of holidays to post about.

These are just our initial thoughts, but would love to hear what others are doing and if you have any great templates that work well for you!

THANKS! See More

Hi All,

Would love to hear where you all save/store your sales scripts, email templates, etc. for ease of editing and access by the team? We've tried DropBox and Egnyte, as well as Google Drive.

Do you just put all your scripts/templates into one doc, or have each in its own and link to a master list somewhere?

Trying to get organized here! Thanks!! See More

I'm curious, where do you all get your creative juices flowing when working from home?

For me, I have to move around.

Sometimes I lock myself in my office, get my desk organized, and then it's off to the races. Other times, I do what I'm doing right now and take my laptop outside and let the fresh air bring my brain back to life.

What about you? Are you a nomad like me? See More

I believe I am welcome to this community and I can contribute to its success in any way possible from my side.

I shall be asking queries related to my domain, and I hope there are like-minded, open-hearted individuals ready to help me out.

Good morning all,

What's something you've done recently that surprised you in a positive way?

For example, I recently began writing more frequently again. It's something I haven't done regularly and at scale for a while. I knew Ihave done it. I felt Icould do it. But it was still a great feeling to actually throw myself into it again and feel like I was producing good work at scale.

Kind of like an athlete coming back from an injury and there's those initial few moments where they're not sure how their healed injury is going to hold up.

What's yours? See More

Is there an IMPACT+ video course on this?

Friends, what Chat feature do you use on your website? What do you love? What feature do you wish it had?

We use Hubspot right now for the chat on our site, and I'm not thrilled. Looking for alternatives!
