what's going on bully fam it's your boy
mr double muscle line bulls bringing you
another episode of breeders hacks
so all right guys so today
um i yet again got a little bit of a
drive so i figured i'd give you guys a
quick episode
so this one's gonna be a little bit
different
uh today i wanted to talk about um
promoting
and and the selling of your puppies
i know a lot of breeders don't kind of
really you know a lot don't really talk
about it
um and
and i think this is very important
because if you're gonna be breeding
you know it's definitely one of those
things you gotta have a plan as to how
you're going to market and sell your
puppies i mean i look at it like this
and i give you the analogy for example
like a sneaker that's about to be
released or a new car that's about to be
released right anytime there's a new
release for anything
big
it usually has
you know advertisement around it you
know it's usually
um you know a lot of hype you know
things like that you know
marketing
for example you know a new pair of
jordans that are about to be released
right
you know
that's already
they advertise it so that the day that
the sneakers actually launch they're
always sold out
within minutes within hours whatever you
know what i'm saying
so
that's what you want
you want to start marketing and
advertising your product
you know
um in advance
so that then
when you do have the product to ready to
be released you know when you do have
the puppies that are ready to go to
their homes
you already have
you know a waiting list or a client or
clientele or whatever the case it may be
ready to purchase your puppies you know
what i'm saying
you don't want to be that person that
waits
until they're ready to sell their
puppies
and then
there was no marketing no advertising no
nothing
and now
you're sitting on puppies you know what
i'm saying
um
that's not what you want you know and
that's usually because of the fact that
like i said people wait
until the puppies are ready to go to
start saying hey i have puppies
available you know like i said that's
that's like releasing a car or a sneaker
not saying anything about it just
releasing it and um expecting people to
know about it you know
so
um with that being said i just wanted to
share some of the stuff that i i know
i'm knowledgeable about a little bit
some of the things that we do here
things like that
um like i said
creating a following around your litter
is going to
help tremendously when selling the
puppies like i said that that's
humongous i mean um some of the things
that we do like like for example
i mean the other than the obvious you
know obviously you need to be posting
pictures up you know on your instagram
on your facebook you know posting
pictures of the puppy so people can see
you know um video helps as as well you
know um
but i i would also say like another gr
like other than just those two um
platforms that most people are on
i would say another great platform is
like tick tock for example
you know like i strongly believe i'm
being on different on multiple platforms
because if you ever
um
you know like on instagram for example
you hear about people you know losing
their instagram accounts and things like
that and you'll
you'll never be in a dead corner and
lose everything if you spread yourself
if you diversify you know what i'm
saying if you're on youtube like we are
if you're on tick-tock if you're on
instagram you're on facebook you know
and and if you do lose any of your
accounts
you know the people that follow you on
the other
you know um platforms
you just let them know and they'll make
sure to go back and follow you on
whatever platform that you lost you know
what i'm saying so um that's just also
extra security for yourself
you know not losing the hard work that
you did putting in
to grow whatever platform that you're on
you know
so yeah definitely
um you know posting on other platforms
now
i strongly i strongly believe in
you know not even just waiting until
you
have a breeding coming up to promote
yourself
i think you should be promoting yourself
all year round even when you don't have
litters on the ground or even when you
don't have anything to sell
you know what i'm saying like i think
you should be promoting and growing your
social media platform as much as
possible so when you do have something
you can sell them like that you know
what i'm saying
so
like i said
i think growing across different
platforms is going to be super helpful
and beneficial and each platform has its
own quirks and things like that and like
what i'll just say is like
for example like tik tok is great like
um if you post on tick tock
their algorithm is like crazy so
and i've tested this out myself i've
posted things on instagram that have
only gotten
you know
let's say a few thousand views or or
likes or whatever i mean
on tick-tock i've gotten videos that
have gotten up to a million views
you know
so with that being said
tick-tock's algorithm like they just
tend to show it to more people the only
thing with tick-tock is like you know
you got to be mindful of watching the
trends that are going on on there um
not only the trends but uh
i i think if you put puppies up on
tick-tock it's always going to do
decently well it's just you know how you
put them up there and that's the other
thing too you know like when when
when putting your puppies on social
media in general you got to make sure
you know their nice background you know
they look good things like that you know
don't be posting no pictures of puppies
you know they all dirty need a bath you
know they're in the drop cages or
something like you know
you you want to
put a good product you know out there
for people to see
you know so
um
yeah with that being said like i said if
you put together the right videos and
you'll have to
tinker around and play around and see
what works for you
you know that's one of the things so you
can't you can't give up but once you
find what works for you
you know just keep running with that and
this and tick tock will grow
you're following so fast and and the
real gem behind that
is you may not even be interested in
tick tock
to each his own
but uh if you can grow on tin top say
you get i'll give you the prime example
right i i did a video that got like a
million views you know and i got i don't
even know how many thousand followers
off of that right let's say i got i
don't know 10 20 ko for that followers
right
those followers if you if you add your
instagram to your tick tock like if you
link it
those followers on your tick tock are
gonna go to your instagram now
and follow you on instagram so you're
growing really on like both platforms
you know
so that's like you know that's a really
big gem you know um another another
thing is like i believe
in recycling content
so for example if you got a video that
did really good on on tick tock right of
one of your dogs or your puppies
whatever
you can take that same video and upload
that to instagram you know what i'm
saying and now
you're getting double the amount of
exposure double the amount of views
because you took that same video and
uploaded it to um instagram you know
and then
you can take it an even step further
and you can take that same video and
upload that video to to youtube
because now youtube has um
what's called uh youtube shorts
so it's like their version of tick tock
to compete with tick tock
you upload that on youtube you get a
whole bunch of exposure and and new
flowers that way as well
so i think that's really kind of big and
key
you know recycling content you know you
can take a video that did well
uh on youtube like i said youtube shorts
or whatever put it on and vice versa you
know so you can recycle the content and
i would spread it against the three
platforms you know um
just like i do say
even with the episodes of breeders hacks
you know um on the instagram channel
i'll upload them to igtv
and um
you know obviously on the instagram
channel it's behind compared to the
youtube channel you know but yet again
for the people that missed it on the
youtube channel i upload on the
instagram channel it just gives me more
exposure more views things like that you
know
so
that goes with like i said you know if
you're trying to sell your puppies as
well as just trying to grow
your your
platform and grow
as a brand in general you know actually
now i just thought about it is uh
like
instagram has this new thing called
reels right
so reels
are supposed to be
um
reels are supposed to be
instagram's version of tick-tock it's
supposed to compete with tick-tock so
now here's something that
somebody that actually works for um
instagram related to me
is that
when they create a new feature like a
while back they created stories right
um instagram stories and people use that
to this day
it was supposed to compete with snapchat
when when instagram even youtube any of
these platforms create a new feature
like how youtube has shorts instagram
has reels you know things like that
even um new features that are on tick
tock and these platforms when they
create a new feature
jump on that use that you know what i'm
saying because what happens is um
they want to compete with whatever
other platform that's already using that
feature or not using that feature and
they want people to use it to either
like i said for competition or they just
want that new feature to get really
popular so what they're going to do is
they're going to
like tweak the algorithm so for example
if if you post a video like a regular
video on your um
on your instagram for example
it's not it probably won't do as well as
if you do like an instagram reel
which is supposed to be their version of
tick tock
you know and it's because of the fact
that um
reels right now get crazy like exposure
like it'll keep showing on the explore
page and things like that
because of the fact that um
it's a new feature
and instagram wants to really kind of
compete with tick-tock
so that's another thing if you see a new
feature you'll jump on it and start
using it right away you know what i'm
saying like i said i had a video i
tested this out myself everything i'm
saying i've tested you know i had a
regular video on instagram and it got i
forgot how many views or whatever i
think it was like say you got like a
thousand views but then when i posted it
on instagram reels it got thousands of
views you know so
that's just another thing to be mindful
of you know what i'm saying
and you know there's obviously like you
know um going to shows letting people
see your dogs and things like that see
what your program is about
you know um
but i mean
if you really take the time and it
becomes almost like a job really if you
take the time though and and market
yourself market your puppies you know um
show what you really have in in in in a
good light you know
you can um you you you'll never have a
problem
selling puppies at all
you know but it takes time
and you can't wait you can't wait until
the puppies are here
or the puppies are eight weeks old and
now you're trying to sell them you know
um
it's just a little rough you know you
know hey some people you know maybe um
it's you know this isn't an issue for
them but i know definitely when i was
first first first starting out you know
this was a thing for me you know and um
pictures video you know and you got to
remember you know you're going to get a
lot of dms you're gonna get a lot of
messages you're gonna get a lot of calls
about your puppies you know what i'm
saying
and it's just one of those things that
um
being a breeder you gotta deal with
customer service got to deal with
people's questions you know they may
window shop you know they may ask
questions and then just
say nothing else
it's kind of nature of the beast
you know um
yeah so i mean like i said i think if
you want to sell puppies your best
remedy is to grow
your best remedy is to grow your brand
and your
your social media platforms and grow on
multiple
platforms um
i mean i have i'm gonna start doing this
i haven't really
like i haven't done this in a really
long time but like creating um like a
puppy waiting list and things like that
like there's all kinds of things other
things that you can do as well but in
today's day and age if you really want
to
you know
um get top dollar for your puppies you
know find the best possible homes things
like that
you got there's no way around it you got
to use social media you know so anyway
