GROW YOUR BRAND, YOUR BUSINESS,
AND YOUR BOTTOM LINE
(Without the massive time-drain, overwhelming tech confusion, and relentless "what-the-heck-am-I-supposed-to-post" panic.)
So let's skip the appetizers and get right to the main course.
You very likely already KNOW that social media is a critical piece of your marketing strategy, and it can be one of the absolute best ways to get new leads, prospects, clients and customers. Not to mention...showcasing yourself as an authority in your field, growing your brand awareness and cultivating that all-important "know-love-trust" factor.
You've probably also heard that roughly 80% of people are active on social media, and that number continues to grow every day! (Source Statista.com)
Even if you're already running a successful and profitable business,
having a solid social media strategy and presence can:
You're a smart and savvy business owner or entrepreneur. You've spent years, perhaps even a lifetime honing your skills, perfecting your craft, creating your products...Now where the $%?!*# are all of your clients and customers?!
You heard that they were on social media...so you set up your Facebook, your Instagram, your LinkedIn...wondered if you should start a YouTube channel, and were highly considering Twitter and Pinterest as well...cuz maybe your target market is there too??
You created some graphics, put out some posts, went live on Facebook once, and even hired your best friend's daughter to help out. Millennials are supposed to be good at this stuff, right??
If you're super committed, you looked some stuff up on Google, attended a free workshop at your favorite networking event, and maybe even invested in some back-end posting software that was supposed to make it "easy".
You KNOW it's one of the most important things for your business, but it's so hard to be consistent, and you don't know what to post...every flippin' week! You don't fully understand the technology, but you also don't have the money to hire someone to do it for you.
So, even with the best intentions, most entrepreneurs end up throwing up their hands because nothing they do seems to work.
Here's why many entrepreneurs don't get the results they're looking for...
Without a super clear, step-by-step, strategic plan, most people waste a lot of time, energy and money throwing spaghetti on the wall, praying that something will stick.
They fall victim to thinking that social media is too hard, too complicated, too overwhelming, and ultimately a time suck.
Here's why this is stopping you from achieving your highest potential...
As an already busy entrepreneur with clients to serve, services to fulfill, a family to take care of, and perhaps even a day-job to get to, you don't have the time, nor expertise, to figure all of this out on your own.
But you also know that you literally can't afford to push social media to the back-burner anymore, OR have some half-baked “strategy” that will never get you where you want to go.
Here's the good news...social media DOES work, your potential clients and customers ARE there...you just need to let them know YOU are there too...IN THE RIGHT WAY.
Which means...
Even if you feel like you're "late to the party", fear not my friend, the party is still raging! You know, like a 3-Billion people party, and a golden opportunity for you to jump in and start shakin' your business groove-thang. (AKA - Reaping the benefits, business and revenue.)
That is...if you can avoid the same deadly social media mistakes that most entrepreneurs are making, and will continue to make without a proper roadmap.
Building a powerful and successful social media strategy isn't particularly hard or complicated...but there are several little pieces of the puzzle that need to be in their proper place.
Should I post to every platform? What do I post? How often should I post?
These are just some of the MANY questions you'll have to answer along the way.
Most entrepreneurs are taking wild guesses based on something they’ve likely heard from a friend or colleague (who's also not a social media expert) and haven't taken the time to invest in the education they need. The thing is, you can't treat social like another annoying little to-do item that maybe gets done...but probably won’t, and likely not with excellence.
In reality, it's one of the most important pieces of your overall marketing strategy, that when done right, can build your brand, and earn you consistent revenue now, and over the lifetime of your business.
It's time to give social media the time and respect it deserves.
Think of creating your social media strategy like going to the gym. If you were committed to getting fit, you wouldn't look around a gym, do one bicep curl, one squat, pick up a free weight (just to see what it felt like), then take a look in the mirror to see if it's working yet. If you were committed and didn't have the education you needed, you would take a class, or hire a trainer, and make a PLAN.
The former is literally how MOST entrepreneurs approach their social. They throw a few different posts out with zero strategy, then wonder why it's not working for them.
What's an ad vs. a boost? What's a lead magnet? What's an ethical bribe? What percentage of my posts should contain links? What's a good marketing mix of content for my business and target market? What’s evergreen content?
These are the questions that need to be answered BEFORE a single post goes out. It's time to stop throwing spaghetti at the wall, and create a well-thought-out strategy that will get RESULTS.
Think of social media like drinking water. If you drank just one glass of water, you might not really notice any difference in your overall health. You could look at your skin, feel your joints, and say, "See, no difference at all. Drinking water must have no effect on my health."
Again, this is how most entrepreneurs are doing their social. They get all gung-ho for about 2 weeks, then stop completely and wonder why social isn't working for them. OR, they post 3 posts this week, skip 2 weeks, do 1 Live, skip a month...and again, wonder why it's not working for them.
How often should I post to Facebook vs. Twitter? How often should I be engaging with my audience? Why does this all feel so willy-nilly?
Social media, like drinking water, requires consistent action over time to yield results. If you started drinking 8 glasses of water every single day, you would definitely feel the difference! If you create a stellar social strategy, and post the right content-mix consistently every week and every month, your business will transform!
Social Media is not brain surgery or rocket science. I promise.
Many entrepreneurs throw in the towel, and give up on the whole thing when they hit one tiny bump on the technology turnpike. It sounds something like, "I hate this...I feel totally behind, I don't even speak the language, so how can I make this work for me??"
How do I translate my business knowledge into online marketing success? What's a client journey? What's a Page? Profile? Channel? Grid? How do they all fit together?
Every single piece of social media is a learnable skill that YOU can master.
No matter how "techno dummy" you might feel.
No matter if you're just getting started.
No matter if you think social is just for the youngsters.
No matter if you don’t have much of a following right now.
You CAN learn this and let it be one of your favorite parts of your business. Yep...I said it. You can go from hating it, to loving it...or at the very least, loving the results it's bringing you.
Most entrepreneurs totally freak themselves out thinking that they need to be posting three times a day, seven days a week, on every single platform on the planet, to get any results. They feel like maybe they're not ready...or they don't have the right team, or the right logo, or the right website...and on-and-on...
I want to be everywhere. Shouldn't I be on every single platform out there? How much TIME is it going to take to post to all those different platforms every single day?
The reality is that when you choose the RIGHT platforms for YOUR business, and when you create a solid strategy of content, posts and promotions, you DO NOT need to be everywhere at all times.
It's time to take a deep breath and recenter. YOU CAN create the right and REALISTIC strategy for you, your team and your business. Give up trying to be "perfect" and allow social media to start working for you! You know...like NOW; not when you've waited for yourself, your team or your business to become..."perfect."
Imperfect action beats perfect inaction every time!
Even though it seems like social media is a huge COMPLICATED chore with LOTS of moving pieces...You DON'T need to know EVERYTHING to achieve MASSIVE SUCCESS.
YES, you read that right. You DO NOT need to know everything to be successful on social!! The reason most people fail is because they get caught up trying to figure EVERYTHING out on their own, on every platform with every possible technique. So, even with the best intentions, it's way too hard and time-consuming...so they fizzle out. They try one thing, then the next, then the next without ever discovering the pinpointed things they actually NEED.
This is because pretty much ANYONE can “do it”...start a page, post a picture, etc.
...BUT to actually “do it” EFFECTIVELY is a horse of a different color.
As long as you can avoid the biggest stumbling blocks that sink most entrepreneurs, the path is already paved for you to create prosperity.
A proven path that cuts through the confusion and allows you to generate new leads, attract ideal clients, and create more revenue, so that you will feel confident about moving forward and growing your business.
The key ingredient to all of this is creating a simple, but highly effective, social media strategy.
And with your permission, that's exactly what I'd LOVE to show you how to create.
I've taken everything I've learned from over 25 years in technology, over 10 years as an entrepreneur, and over 5 years owning a highly successful social media marketing agency (helping thousands of business owners create and close more business), and channeled it into a comprehensive, step-by-step, practical program. This course not only teaches you high-level theory, but digs down into the important pieces of what you need to know to EXECUTE a successful social media strategy.

With so many options for feeds, grids, stories and IGTV, this is a must-use platform for many businesses, and we'll dive into how it can work for you.
Module Highlights:
Welcome to the beauty, crafts, mommy...and SHOPPERS paradise! While lots of other platforms are great for leads, events and connections, many Pinterest users come to shop.

A little birdie once told me...in 280 characters or less...
It's time to grab some drinks with the gossip-girl of social.
Short, sweet, and to the point, Twitter is a great way to share your thoughts, and best behind the scenes moments. Twitter is also an awesome way to get clicks to your website and lead generating opt-in pages. With 91% of Twitter interactions being link-clicks, this is an SEO-lovers dream platform.
We'll talk about what works on this platform, what doesn't, and discover if you'll end up being an ornithophile. (That's my big word, that I had to look up, fancy for bird-lover.)

No suit required...except maybe in your profile pic. It's time to grab our briefcases and get comfortable in the most "businessey" of all platforms, LinkedIn.
