Stop Chasing Followers and Start Building Something You Actually Own
Ready to ditch the social media hamster wheel and focus on what actually brings in consistent revenue for your online course business? 🚀
If you've been feeling the pressure to show up perfectly on social media every day, create a flawless grid, and dance on reels while watching your follower count obsessively… it's time for a mindset shift. In this episode, I'm lifting the burden of social media perfectionism from your shoulders and revealing the ONE thing that makes all your social media efforts worthwhile (hint: it's not more followers).
Most course creators spend years trying to crack the code of making money directly from social media, but the true purpose of your social platforms might surprise you. I'll show you how to approach social media with a relaxed, strategic mindset that actually generates revenue instead of just burning you out.
“Followers don't equal sales. Shining, perfectly placed grids don't equal sales. It's like fairy floss. It looks huge and impressive. But when you boil it down, it's a tiny teaspoon of sugar that's highly overpriced.” ✨
🔥 In This Episode:
- Discover the ONLY thing social media is truly good for in your business (it's probably not what you think)
- Learn why building your email list should be your primary social media goal
- Uncover the relationship-building pathway that turns followers into paying customers
- Master the art of creating lead magnets that actually convert casual followers to subscribers
- Transform your social media from a source of stress to a strategic business tool without the pressure
Grab your favorite drink and let's destroy some social media myths together! ☕️
