Summary

What This Season of Change Makes Possible for You and Your Business The online marketing landscape is shifting—and if you’ve been feeling like your go-to strategies aren’t working the same way they used to, you’re not alone. But here's the truth: this evolution is your invitation to get smarter, more agile, and more profitable than ever before. In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Jenna Kutcher to unpack what’s really happening in the world of digital marketing—from shrinking webinar show-up rates to why cold audiences are harder to convert (and what to do about it). We’re getting honest about the changes we’re seeing in our own launches and sharing the mindset and marketing pivots that are helping us stay ahead. If you’ve been wondering why your organic reach is dropping, if paid ads are even worth it, or whether evergreen funnels still convert, you’ll find answers here, plus clear steps to refine your strategies without burning out. Whether you’re adjusting to new buyer behavior, exploring alternative ad platforms like Pinterest, or figuring out how to build trust in the age of AI, this episode gives you the clarity you need to stay confident in your business. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Marketing Isn't Broken—But It Is Different Email, webinars, and evergreen funnels still work…if you evolve with them. Buyer behavior has changed, and that shift calls for smarter strategies, better messaging, and more personalized touchpoints. 2️⃣ Your Audience Is Evolving—Are You? Cold audiences need clarity fast, and warm audiences need to feel reconnected. Revisit your avatars, refresh your messaging, and don’t assume your audience is the same as last year. 3️⃣ It's Time to Lead with Agility, Not Just Automation Lower show-up rates and smaller cart close days aren’t signs of failure—they're signals to show up earlier, sell with clarity, and build trust over time. Strategic pivots (like offering payment plans sooner or trying Pinterest ads) can turn dips into breakthroughs.

0:00.0	Hey there. Welcome to the Amy Porterfield Show.
0:11.3	It's not enough to just be like, lead generation is changing. It's like, no, how are we changing?
0:17.5	And like, how is our client changing? and maybe that is signaling a lack of connection
0:23.1	or maybe it's signaling like this disconnection between the way you're speaking to them and the
0:27.3	way they speak of themselves or their own problems i've been hearing some rumblings online
0:35.3	rumblings like live launching doesn't work anymore.
0:39.3	Evergreen doesn't work anymore. Webinars don't work anymore. Email marketing doesn't work anymore.
0:44.6	And I think you and I both know that is absolutely not true. But what I can't do is ignore the fact that things feel different. In 2025, how we market, how we launch online,
0:59.6	the results we're seeing, how we get there, it just feels really different versus years past.
1:07.6	And before I get into today's topic, I want to remind you of something.
1:12.7	If you're looking for all the ways that launching and webinars and email marketing are not working like they used to, you will find it.
1:23.3	If you spend your time looking for ways that email marketing, webinars, launching Evergreen
1:30.0	are working, you will find it.
1:33.5	So you get to choose where you want to focus your time and energy and the conversations
1:39.6	you are having and the stories that you are telling yourself.
1:43.7	Because you can bet that I am not
1:45.9	spending one minute wallowing in, it's not working anymore. Because I'm looking for proof that it is.
1:53.3	One of my students just had her biggest launch ever in March, hundreds of thousands of dollars.
1:59.0	Many of my peers had their biggest year at the end of
2:02.4	2024. One of my friends has shot up the charts in his podcast because he's using LinkedIn
2:08.7	differently than he has in the past. Everywhere you look, there's opportunity if you're willing
2:14.9	to look for it. But I can't deny or tell you that 2025 doesn't feel
