Just had a light bulb moment

Messaging Clear/Unclear

So, I was just reading new posts today and responding to questions and such, then Eric (aka Batman) made a post about being yourself when it comes to writing and blogging here at WA. Because we have a good amount of AI-created posts here that are missing that human touch (I might even leave some of my mispelld words in one of my posts one day! Ha ha!). Theres nothing wrong with Ai helping create your work as long as you make it your owns. Get creative with it.
I had an epiphany about 30 mins ago (No, I will not allow my dyslexia to misspell this word, "epiphany.") just reading Erics post and commentary about this subject, and the epiphany I had was not about AI, but it was about creating a landing page sharing my experience about how Affiliate Marketing has changed my life. The good, the bad, and the ugly.
I had a thought that if I share my experience that is genuine and honest in this landing page, that I make “some what like a personal story-blog” (if that is even a word) I might draw some genuine and honest people too! Who may be curious more about the topic.
Honesty and being genuine about yourself are what really draw people's attention. Stories sale. Especially success stories (doesn't necessarily have to be about money. Money just draws people faster). This is something AI can't do. Ai can never live your experience it can only copy what you put out and it's that genuine experience that real people are looking for.
Lost in the Sauce

I believe that AI has oversaturated the market and people who are looking for genuine stories are getting turned off by it. Thus I have an opinion that is not yet widely received but it is gaining steam. I think we will experience and AI (dot com) bubble burst as more people experience Ai fatigue.

Not us current users of course but maybe (really) our readers/viewers will. Which is why it is so important to not forget the "Human" element. Because at the end of the day humans will be human. Authenticity matters and Authenticity will deliever.
Back to the idea.
Now what I meant by sharing my experience is using my life story as the topic of the discussion explaining situations about how affiliate marketing as a business or even just having the knowledge of it benefited me in my day to day life.
I work in the service industry and I literally cannot "un-see" how to solve issues within my department, management and with guest complaints. See these are lived experiences. Having the knowledge in marketing and branding helped me solve communication issues at my job. And I am an introvert!
I have always been a hands on person when it comes to learning something new or teaching it. I apply it to a situation or job that I am familiar with first. Sometimes unknowingly and thats how I learn if it will work or not. Which is what I am about to do with this epiphany. Share my lived experience with marketing inside a landing page. Not a lot but just enough to nudge the reader into wanting to Read More...👇🏾
Understanding a landing page purpose

What is the purpose of a landing page?
A landing page is a standalone webpage that entices users to click on a strategic call-to-action (CTA), such as “Get Started,” “Subscribe” or “Buy Now.” It has a clear and focused call-to-action, minimal distractions and tailored content that matches the visitor's intent and interest.
Landing pages focus on a single goal, typically conversion or lead generation. This precision makes them highly effective and lowers the costs of acquiring leads and making sales. They are the destination for people interested in learning more about your business after seeing your online marketing or advertising campaign, Shwake (Jun. 19) [1].
So, the purpose of landing pages are strategic ways to get leads and sales base on the content shared and are web portals to your “actual” websites which holds all of your content. This is important to know because just like every social media site has its own thing or unique function so does landing pages. Each tool in your digital arsenal has a different purpose and function.
Once you understand the function of the tools that you choose you will be able to utilize them to maximum effect. Which is why, I am taking this angle. People love to read and hear about authentic stories. And I believe that short stories on landing pages is the way to go. I am going to test this idea on an unsuspected social site.
Ill update you all with this test case sometime in the future, till then Happy Blogs!!
