So I have been trying a few different ways to grow my community. Each trail runs for a few months 2-4 and I look at the following.
Traffic: This tells me which send the most traffic to my about page.
Conversation: This tells me which source sends the best people for my group.
Time Spent: This give me an idea on how much effort it took to generate that result.
These give me the true "cost" of each follower.
Currently the two trails I have done are FB ads and Skool Networking.
I finished FB ads where I had a 17% conversion rate from them with $10 day spend. Currently I am networking through comments and posts with 100 people a day. This just started so it will take 3+ months to compare.
What methods have you seen and what have been the tradeoffs?
