Jacinta Devlin is a beacon of guidance for female entrepreneurs, from influencers and direct sellers to photographers and personal coaches. Her mission is to help these ambitious individuals build their brands and bottom lines, leveraging the power of online and social media platforms.Many of Jacinta's clients approach her with a burning desire to either kickstart or scale their businesses. However, they often find themselves at a crossroads, uncertain of how to craft a strategy or roadmap for their digital footprint.
With her extensive background in network marketing and direct sales, Jacinta is adept at guiding clients who are already in the trenches of product selling or affiliate marketing and are looking to broaden their horizons.
A common aspiration among entrepreneurs is to become an influencer. Jacinta addresses this by clarifying that while she aids in the growth of one's influence and brand, there's no magic formula to bestow the title of 'influencer.' Her approach is bespoke, aligning her strategy and program with the individual's business goals and objectives.
Jacinta tackled the myth that a large following automatically translates into substantial income. She underscored that followers do not necessarily mean revenue. The key lies in conversion and engagement.
Jacinta shed light on the untapped potential of micro-influencers who boast highly engaged audiences. She provided sage advice on how to pitch collaborations with brands, stressing the need to demonstrate how you can help a brand achieve its goals, rather than focusing solely on what you can gain from the partnership.
