Why Your Content Gets No Clicks – Messaging Tips for Startups

In this episode of the FiredUp! podcast, the Firebrand team shares their expert insight for how to cut through the clutter, speak directly to your audience, and transform complicated narratives into compelling, actionable stories that resonate across media, potential customers, and the industry as a whole.

Nicole and Ian discuss:

  • Startup messaging requires regular review and refinement to grow and evolve alongside the company.
  • Messaging should be tailored to the people you’re speaking to (CEOs, CTOs, media, etc.)
  • Authenticity matters; don’t be afraid to inject personality and human elements into your communication. 
  • Case studies and customer stories are valuable for validating your messaging.
  • Distribution is key: spend one-third of your time creating content and the other two-thirds of your time distributing it.

    • Your messaging should be a living document that adapts to market changes, competitor landscapes, and your company’s growth. Remember, if your audience isn’t engaging, they’re silently telling you something isn’t working. Regularly test, measure, and refine your approach to ensure your message not only makes sense but also makes an impact.

    Thank you for listening! Tune in to all the episodes for practical tips on crushing your startup marketing goals. Don’t forget to follow, rate, and review the podcast, and tell us your key takeaways!
