What’s one thing that we love to see other people do… but hate to do ourselves? Post Instagram Stories, of course! There are FAR too many biz owners out there who aren’t using Stories often enough (or ever!), and it all boils down to one thing. We’re scared of putting ourselves out there.
I’ll tell you right now: if you’re not using Stories, you’re missing out on BIG opportunities to build your connection with your audience, get seen by more people, and drive more sales - in fact, some of my most successful launches have happened almost exclusively through my Instagram Stories!
In this episode of Marketing Sucks, I take a deep-dive into Stories: why we need them, why we hate them, and how to get over your fear and just DO the damn thing. Tune in as I reveal how to cut through the noise and get to the heart of what your audience wants - and what can happen when you stop hiding behind your feed, show up with intention, and speak to your community!
Marketing sucks. Let’s learn together. Hit play to discover:
