If you’re a coach or course creator, you probably have a pretty good handle on digital marketing. You know most (if not all) of the marketing channels out there. But how many of these channels are you already using? And are you using them to their full capacity? That’s where omnichannel marketing comes in.
While it may sound like yet another buzzword to add to your already full plate, omnichannel marketing is super essential if you want to keep your clients coming back for more. In this blog post, we’ll explain why omnichannel marketing is so important and share some tips for getting started.
So What Exactly Is Omnichannel Marketing?
Put simply, omnichannel marketing is the process of using and optimizing multiple marketing channels to reach and engage your customers. This includes email, social media, websites, blogs, podcasts, search engine optimization (SEO), and more.
As a coach and a course creator, you know how important it is to speak to your customers where they are and in a language (audio, visuals, video etc.) that they like. Omnichannel marketing allows you to do just that.
By having a presence in multiple channels, from web and email to social media and text messages, you can better engage with your audience, create more meaningful connections, and ultimately increase conversions.
And that’s not all…
As a Coach or a Course Creator Using The Right Omnichannel Marketing Strategy will lead to:
- Increased engagement – Reaching clients on multiple channels at once increases the likelihood of them engaging with your message or offer in some way.
- Higher conversion rates – Because clients have more opportunities to interact with you across multiple channels, they are more likely to convert from leads into paying clients or subscribers.
- More personalized experiences – With omnichannel marketing, you can use data from multiple sources (like website analytics, social media insights, etc.) to create personalized experiences for each client—which can lead to higher satisfaction levels and more loyalty over time.
- Improved client interactions – By using data from multiple sources, it becomes easier for you to anticipate the needs of your ideal humans and provide more efficient service when needed.
- Better cost-effectiveness – Since omnichannel marketing offers so many benefits, it also provides businesses with a greater return on investment (ROI)—making it one of the most cost-effective ways to market your offers online.
Plus, in today’s world, people are constantly bouncing between different devices and platforms – so if you’re only using one channel (like your website or one social media platform or just emails), then you’re missing out on a lot of potential sales.
But I am just one person! How am I supposed to handle all of these multiple marketing channels alone?
I hear ya…

Here’s How You Can Create and Implement An Effective Omnichannel Marketing Strategy For Your Business
To create an effective Omnichannel Marketing Strategy, you need to understand how each channel of your business can work together to form a cohesive strategy. For that, you need to:
1. Define your goals and objectives.
The first step to creating an effective omnichannel marketing strategy is to define your goals and objectives. What do you hope to achieve with your omnichannel marketing efforts?
- Do you want to increase brand awareness?
- Drive more traffic to your website?
- Boost online sales?
Once you know what you want to achieve, you can create a plan that will help you reach your goals.
2. Know your audience.
It’s also important that you know your target audience before you create an omnichannel marketing strategy.
- Who are you trying to reach with your marketing message?
- What are their needs and wants?
- What channels do they use most often?
When you understand your target audience, you can create a marketing strategy that will resonate with them.
3. Develop a plan.
After you have defined your goals and identified your target audience, it’s time to develop a plan. Your plan should detail how you will use each channel in your omnichannel marketing strategy to reach your goals. For example, if you’re looking to increase brand awareness, you might use social media, email marketing, and content marketing. If you’re looking to drive traffic to your website, you might use search engine optimization (SEO), pay-per-click (PPC) advertising, and social media.

4. Implement your plan.
Once you have developed a plan, it’s time to implement it. Depending on your selected channels, this may involve creating or updating your website, developing content, setting up social media accounts, and more. The two things you’d be doing for sure would be:
- Creating compelling content. Whether it’s a blog post, video, or social media update, make sure that your content is interesting, valuable, and informative. You want people to pay attention, not go to sleep or wander off.
- Promoting your content across multiple channels. This could include sharing your content on social media, emailing it to subscribers, or even running ads on search engines or social media platforms. The key is to get your content in front of as many people as possible so that they can see it and engage with it.
To avoid overwhelm, start small (3 channels max) and gradually expand your efforts as you see results.
5. Evaluate and adjust your strategy.
Don’t forget to evaluate the results of your omnichannel marketing strategy. Keep track of things like website traffic, online sales, and social media engagement to see what’s working and what isn’t. Then, make changes to improve your results over time.
This might involve changing the channels you’re using, the content you’re creating, or the frequency with which you’re sending messages. By constantly evaluating and adjusting your strategy, you can ensure that you’re always using the most effective channels and tactics.
There you have it, a path to creating your own Omnichannel Marketing Campaign
Tips For Implementing An Omnichannel Marketing Plan Successfully
The omnichannel approach requires integrated marketing strategies across all channels and touchpoints, to make sure that each channel works together in harmony. To do that;
- Think about what messages you want to convey and consider how these can be adapted for each platform.
- Look at which channels your target audience is most likely to use, and tailor your content accordingly.
- Think about how clients will move from one channel to the next – for instance, if they view a product on social media, do you have an online store or website where they can buy it?
- When creating content, aim to keep it consistent across all channels. Your brand should be recognizable no matter where your humans encounter your business, so use the same color palette, fonts, and logo wherever possible.
- Include a call-to-action in each post or article which encourages clients to take action – this could be anything from signing up for your newsletter, visiting a blog post, or following you on social media.
How To Measure The Success Of Your Omnichannel Marketing Campaign
Once you’ve implemented the Omnichannel Marketing Plan, you need to start collecting data from all the channels you’re using as a part of your campaign. This data can include things like website traffic, social media engagement, and sales figures. You will need to track and analyze this data over time in order to see how your campaign is performing.
The data you collect will depend on the goals of your campaign. For example, if your goal is to increase the number of leads, the data you collect will be:
- The number of lead magnet sign ups
- The click through rate of lead magnet emails
- The engagement on social media posts where you talk about your lead magnet
- The number of DMs you get or consultation calls booked.
To collect this data, you may need to do some techy stuff like setting up tracking codes and google analytics on your website, shifting to a creator account on Instagram and so on. But you only have to do that once, after which you’re set for life.
The data evaluation and analysis will depend on:
- Who you’re addressing and how.
- What are your omnichannel marketing goals?
- What channels are you using to address them?
- What are the parameters of success for each channel? (likes, sales, engagement, clicks?)
- How can you measure those parameters? How often will you measure them?
For example, if you’re tracking the number of people coming to your website, and your goal is sales, you need to see how many people are clicking on the ‘buy’ button.
The analysis will tell you how well each channel performed individually and how it contributed to your overall omnichannel goal.
Here’s an example of setting realistic launch goals and metrics and measuring them. This is what you’ll have to do for each channel and see how it ties in with your overall omnichannel marketing campaign.
Examples Of Successful Omnichannel Marketing Campaigns
In recent years, countless coaching and course-creation businesses have experienced significant growth thanks to Omnichannel Marketing. Take Marie Forleo, for example. She has leveraged Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, email marking and so much more as a part of her Omnichannel marketing strategy. On top of being a guest on many popular television, radio, and web shows, she also has her very own Marie TV. When not providing value, she uses all these channels to promote her online courses and high ticket offers.
Companies like Farmstead have also taken full advantage of omnichannel marketing, pushing personalized recommendations via SMS and email campaigns.
Around the holiday season, Macy’s used omnichannel marketing effectively to create a seamless shopping experience by developing holiday campaigns that were consistent across channels.
Granted they now have vast resources to support them with this campaign, but that wasn’t always the case.
And there’s no rule in the book that says you have to spend thousands in one go to get decent traction from your Omnichannel Marketing efforts. If that were the case, so many smaller businesses wouldn’t be doing it.
For a smaller business, an omnichannel marketing campaign can look like:
- A well-developed website
- An effective lead magnet funnel to capture leads and provide value
- A sales page to convert leads into customers
- A newsletter and two to three social media channels to create interest, awareness, and engagement.
In fact, that’s exactly how we run a successful omnichannel marketing campaign for a talented memoir writing coach. We use Instagram, Youtube, Blogs, and Emails to connect with her audience. We focus on providing immense value to her followers with lead magnets, workshops, and webinars, which opens them up to learning more from her high-touch programs later down the line.
For one of our other clients, an Etsy coach…
Her first launch, under our management, yielded $24k in revenue. The marketing channels used were: Blog, Email, Instagram, YouTube, and Private Membership Groups.
We also partnered successfully with a successful Modern Crystal healer to handle her weekly blogs, create a consistent FB/IG social media strategy and attract more leads through creative marketing campaigns. Our weekly Instagram content grew her
followers on a consistent basis. One challenge campaign we designed and executed for her brought in over 350 leads to her email list.
With so many channels available to reach customers, coaches and course creators need to be able to create campaigns that are tailored to them in order to maximize their impact. They also need to stay up to date on the latest trends in order to remain competitive.
There are four things that will make or break your omnichannel marketing campaign:
- the right strategy
