You know the drill: you write up an Instagram caption. You add your images and emojis. You double-check to make sure that you included a CTA. You post. You wait. And then… crickets. Tale as old as time.
It’s easy to get frustrated when you feel like you’re screaming into the void. But if you’re not marketing with intention, you just won’t get the results you’re looking for… no matter how many Reels or posts you share every week. One of the most-asked questions that I get from my audience is “How the hell do I build a content strategy?” - and that’s exactly what I cover in this episode of Marketing Sucks!
Tune in to learn how to use Instagram to its full potential, including how, what, and when to post. I talk about how to audit your page, build more intention into your content creation, and take your audience on a journey that includes visuals, storytelling, and an interactive element. You can thank me later!
