  • Marketing Like a Nerd: SEO, Ads, and What Your DNA Might Say About Your Skin

    Marketing Like a Nerd: SEO, Ads, and What Your DNA Might Say About Your Skin
    Jun 12 2025

    Marketing Like a Nerd: SEO, Ads, and What Your DNA Might Say About Your Skin

    Hosted by: The Nerd on Your Marketing Team
    Channel: Let’s Hash It Out (submitted for NASNPROtv syndication) If you’re an esthetician who’s tired of chasing trends, burning out on content creation, or wondering why your “consistent posting” still isn’t filling your books—this episode is your permission slip to think differently.
    💥 No fluff.
    💥 No generic Canva quote posts.
    💥 No surface-level “six-figure spa” talk. Just real marketing insights, bold strategy, and a few curveball questions—like what if your DNA actually matters in how your skin reacts to treatments… and how your esthetician could use that information to serve clients better? In this episode, The Nerd unpacks:
    • What actually works in spa marketing (SEO, ads, brand voice—not reels for the algorithm)
    • Why most estheticians sabotage their own growth by waiting to “feel ready”
    • How the Facet Method blends SEO, paid ads, and done-for-you content
    • Interesting genetic markers that could (maybe) influence facial results
    • Why marketing needs to be honest, not hyper-curated
    Perfect for estheticians, spa owners, or skincare educators who:
    • Think independently
    • Don’t fit into the “Instagram estie” mold
    • Want marketing that aligns with real values, not vanity metrics
    • Appreciate strategy, integrity, and a little side of science
    🛠 Resources mentioned:
    • The Facet Method SEO + Ads
    • RACE MODE Website Audit
    • Free Tip-4-Tip strategy sessions- scroll down for the qualifier quiz
    This episode is for the real ones. The critical thinkers. The pros who want to grow with clarity—not chaos.
