AMP090: 10x Visual Content For Social Media Mastery With John T. Meyer Of Lemonly

Published: June 19, 2018, 9 a.m.

Exclusive interviews continue from Garrett Moon’s book, 10X-Marketing Formula, which features top marketing professionals who uncover uncommon marketing mindsets, methods, and growth strategies.

In this episode, we’re talking to John T. Meyer, CEO and co-founder of Lemonly, which is a visual marketing firm. John started Lemonly as a way to educate people about how digital media is a way to reach customers, and eventually the business ended up specializing in infographics. Lemonly helped build and pioneer the infographics industry, and it has evolved into visual storytelling - the secret sauce. 

Some of the highlights of the show include: 

  • Humans are visual creatures bombarded by messages; infographics make the world less noisy and confusing
  • Infographics transitioned from visualizing data to a storytelling formula, where there is a beginning, middle, and end
  • Core types of stories offer familiarity and ability to predict what will happen
  • Lemonly starts with content by creating an outline that features the goal, 3 main points, and summary/call to action
  • Web of Content: Where will content live to connect and hook pieces on mediums
  • Issues related to driving traffic through visuals on various social media mediums
  • Visuals grab people’s attention, but you need a good story for ROI
  • Other options available, but Lemonly offers person-to-person relationships
  • Examples of 10X ROI results from visual content
  • Infographics fail and don’t live up to full potential when delivery is blurry, squished; don’t do all that work, and then stumble at the end
