In this lesson, we delve into the awareness and acquisition phases of the growth funnel. We explore the different stages of awareness and how to create content for each stage. The five stages of awareness include the unaware phase, problem-aware phase, solution-aware phase, product-aware phase, and fully aware phase. We discuss the importance of awareness in marketing, especially when launching a new product or startup. Strategies for spreading awareness include running ad campaigns on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Google, leveraging other people's communities (OPCs) such as Product Hunt, participating in forums and threads like Reddit and Quora, guest blogging, utilizing social media channels, and producing quality content consistently on platforms like LinkedIn, YouTube, and Twitter. We also touch on measuring awareness through metrics like traffic to landing pages, impressions on content and messaging, time spent on content, podcast impressions, reach, impressions, engagement, and more. These metrics help evaluate the effectiveness of awareness campaigns and gauge the level of audience awareness for a product or brand.
