Each episode we speak with an expert in their field about an aspect of digital marketing, providing inspiration, insights and practical advice that you can put into practice to improve your online presence. Taking the Scout's dyb dyb dyb dob dob dob approach online, we do OUR best to help you do YOUR best... Hosted by Erica Stacey, who has had over a decade of experience - working for agencies and a wide range of clients - in digital and social media marketing strategy, website development, search engine optimisation (SEO) and marketing (SEM), content marketing, inbound marketing, online advertising and so much more. A professional in the field of design, branding and marketing, she is a trusted name in the Adelaide community to help an array of businesses sort out and achieve their marketing objectives.https://scoutdigitaltraining.com.au/the-dobcast-podcast/noepisodichttps://feeds.captivate.fm/dobcast/Season Final - The skill or area you recommend to be prepared to do your best onlineSeason Final - The skill or area you recommend to be prepared to do your best onlinePlease note: This is the final episode for season 1 of The Dobcast! We will be back in the next couple of months with season 2…

We have spoken with a lot of people over the the season so far, discussing their business, marketing and areas of expertise, along with some personal insights as well.
As we conclude season 1 of the show, we have decided to look back at some of the valuable insights and advice my guests have offered.
You may recall that Erica asks the same three questions at the end of each interview.
So over these last few episodes, we have collated those answers, providing an insightful summary of the way each guest approaches them.
The third and final question she asks – and the one we will focus on in this episode – is what is the one skill or area you would encourage others to develop so they can be prepared to do their best online?

Our Scout “motto” is be prepared to do your best online, and we aim to instil this in everything we do.

It is the most anyone can ask of us, and we can ask of ourselves – Do Our Best.
While you may find there are a couple of areas you may need to focus on, we really loved how my guests took this question on and distilled it into one single recommendation.
We really loved listening back to these answers, and hope you will too.
If you have missed any of these episodes, or these grabs pique your interest for a re-listen, please do!
We would also like to thank you for listening to and supporting The Dobcast. After this episode we are taking a break for a month or so, and will be back later this year with Season 2!

        This is an area we are asked about a lot, with people wanting to know which to use and which one is better.
        Spoiler alert: they have some similarities but are also very different, and in this episode we discuss:
        • What Facebook Ads are
        • What Google Ads are
        • Which you should use, when, for what purpose
        • And regardless of which you use, some key considerations for each.

        This original discussion was presented with accompanying slides, so if you are a visual person, do check out the webinar video recording (link below).

        Erica first came across Brook through a couple of industry Facebook Groups they were both members of, and was immediately attracted to her approach to both business and marketing, which is practical, but also very human, acknowledging the unique situation and emotions we each experience.
        While Brook could discuss a myriad of digital marketing related topics, in this episode Erica and Brook discuss a topic prevalent to many small business owners, and marketers – particularly those who work on their own or in small teams – mental health.
        In this episode we discuss:
        • Some of the main causes of work-related stress, particularly for marketers and small business owners
        • How to proactively care for your own mental health
        • Recognising the signs and symptoms of work-related stress
        • And what you can do to help recover from severe stress and burnout


        Brook also shares with us what she is learning at the moment, and the one thing she recommends people do to be prepared to do their best online…

        Please note: neither Brook nor Erica are qualified health professionals, and instead are sharing advice from their own personal experiences.
