308 Inside a Sales Funnel: How I Became a Raw Dog Food Superfan in 7 Days
My Digital Farmer | Marketing Strategies for Farmers
It started with a few innocent dog scratches. My dog Daisy was itching like crazy, and I began to wonder: could it be her food? One Google search later, I found myself tumbling headfirst into a raw dog food rabbit hole—complete with Facebook ads, blog articles, YouTube videos, and a subscription box I could not refuse. In just seven days, I went from “hmm, maybe I’ll try something new” to full-blown raw food DIYer with a freezer full of meat and a meal plan I created myself. And I didn’t just buy dog food—I bought into an identity shift. I wanted to become the kind of person who...

307 Five Signs It's Time to Raise Your Farm Prices
My Digital Farmer | Marketing Strategies for Farmers
Are you charging enough for your farm products or services? Recently, I was on a coaching call with a farmer who ran a wedding event space on their farm. They were booked solid for over a year—yet hadn’t raised their prices in years. That’s a major sign they could (and should) charge more. The truth is, most farmers hesitate to raise prices because they’re afraid of losing customers. But what if I told you that keeping your prices too low could actually be hurting your business? In today’s episode, I’m breaking down five key signs that it’s time to increase your prices—and how...

306 5 Ways to Get Your First-Time Farm Customers to Buy Again (And Spend More!)
My Digital Farmer | Marketing Strategies for Farmers
Is your farm’s sales funnel doing a great job of bringing in first-time customers—but then dropping the ball when it comes to getting them to buy again? I recently coached a farmer who sells grass-fed chicken, pork, and beef by the cut, along with farm bundles and beef shares. He had an amazing sales funnel that was driving leads and converting first-time buyers like clockwork. But here’s the catch he had no system in place to encourage repeat buying. In today’s episode, I’m sharing what I told this farmer to focus on next to boost his AOV and order frequency—and I’ll give...

305 Top 5 Places to Advertise Your Farm’s Lead Magnet
My Digital Farmer | Marketing Strategies for Farmers
March 26, 2025 A few weeks ago, my farmer friend Glen Young (shoutout to Glen!) sent me a message: "Hey, Corinna—did you know your website pop-up isn’t popping anymore?" Uh-oh. Turns out, something had changed inside (my email service provider), and I needed to go behind the scenes to tweak a few settings. That pop-up is one of the biggest drivers of email signups for my farm, so I was SO grateful he caught the issue before it went unnoticed for too long. This got me thinking—how many farmers have a lead magnet set up but aren’t actually promoting it in the right places? Or worse,...
