We Opened Our Analytics Live and It Got Ugly

from The Branding Fix

Most creators show you the highlight reel, the wins, the screenshots, "look how well this did." We're doing the opposite. In this live coworking session, we're pulling up our REAL analytics: the flops, the embarrassing numbers, the month that didn't work, all unedited, on screen, and letting you roast us in the chat while we diagnose what to fix in real time.Because you learn nothing from someone's best day. You learn everything from watching someone honestly diagnose their worst one. Then we help YOU audit yours, live.WHAT WE GET INTO:→ Our real flops on screen (a bombed video, a traffic dip, a launch that underperformed)→ How to read your own analytics WITHOUT your feelings getting in the way→ The 3-way diagnosis: was it the content, the promotion, or the wrong audience?→ What we're actually changing this month based on the numbers→ LIVE: drop your ugliest metric (a flop, a dip, a $0 month) and we'll tell you what we'd do 👇 What's your ugliest metric right now? Drop it, no judgment.TIMESTAMPS00:00 No Highlight Reels01:25 Why Fran Went Quiet02:06 Google Search Console Update04:42 Link Social Accounts05:27 Instagram Search Clicks07:46 Even Crappy Reels Rank08:53 YouTube Traffic From Google14:05 Brand Awareness In Search15:51 Poll Ugliest Metric16:42 Victoria Google Analytics19:44 Fran Traffic Recovery24:56 Fixing CTR And Titles30:00 Kindle Post Comeback33:14 Promote Pillar Content35:43 Analytics Check In Habit36:36 Summer Reading Guide Setup37:13 Paywall Traffic Lesson39:40 Channel Mix Breakdown41:51 Helpful Content Wins44:47 Pinterest Summer Slump46:40 Pinterest Bare Minimum48:52 Instagram Community Focus55:50 Reels Versus Carousels01:00:29 YouTube Search Insights01:04:58 Google Drives Social01:08:46 Build Brand Long Game01:10:30 Poll Results Wrap Up01:11:28 Final Takeaways Goodbye👇 JOIN THE FIX YOUR BRAND CHALLENGE:https://youtu.be/M8ZPlEzd_90💼 ABOUT THE BRANDING FIX:We're two solo bloggers documenting how we rebuild and future-proof our content and brand.🔔 New videos every Friday!
