Discover Your Core Fans and Keep Them Coming Back

Your core fans aren't just casual supporters; they're the beating heart of your brand's success. When you know how to find and use them, they can dramatically accelerate your Anti-PR success.

Karla Jo Helms, Chief Evangelist and Anti-PR Strategist at JOTO PR Disruptors shared her insights?on what makes an Anti-PR campaign truly resonate with audiences.

Identify Your Core Fans

First things first: you need to know who your core fans are.

These aren't just your average customers; they're the ones who love what you do and why you do it. They get excited about your projects simply because you're involved. To find them:

• Analyze your customer data: Look for repeat buyers, active social media engagers, and those who provide detailed feedback.
• Conduct surveys: Ask questions that reveal emotional connections to your brand.
• Monitor social media: Who's consistently sharing and commenting on your content? What attributes do they have in common?

Remember, understanding your core fans is an ongoing process. Continuously gather data and refine your profile.

Treat Them Like Royalty

Once you've identified your core fans, it's essential to engage with them on a deeper level. This means going beyond surface-level interactions to build meaningful relationships.

• Create exclusive content?or experiences tailored for your most loyal supporters, and actively seek their feedback on new products or initiatives.
• Recognize and celebrate?their contributions to your brand community to make them feel valued and heard.
• Get them involved?in user-generated content for your marketing campaigns.
• Send personalized outreach?to your top customers.

The more you can build a community around your brand, the stronger your Anti-PR will become. Their insights can be incredibly valuable for shaping your Anti-PR strategies and overall business direction.

Make Them Uniquely Yours

Take a look at your competitors.?Analyze their audience and campaigns to see what's working for them.

But don't just copy their strategy – use it as a springboard to differentiate your approach and pinpoint gaps in the market.?This could lead you to discover a niche segment of core fans that are uniquely yours.

By tailoring your offerings and messages to resonate deeply with this group, you'll create a loyal fan base that'll stick with you through thick and thin.

Evolve With Your Audience

Remember, finding and nurturing your core fans isn't a one-time task.

As your brand evolves, so will your audience.?Stay attuned to shifts in their preferences and behaviors:

• Regularly update your audience personas.
• Adapt your Anti-PR strategies to align with changing interests. Figure out where your diehard fans’ attention is going and position yourself in that direction.
• Be prepared to pivot when you notice significant shifts in your core fan base.
