If you’re not using STORIES, you’re missing out.

Storytelling isn't as simple as telling a story. 📖

Storytelling can help you connect with your audience on an emotional level.

Leaving them feeling INSPIRED, MOTIVATED, or even WORRIED.

How the story is told will help determine what emotions are felt.

But how do you tell a story effectively?

It all starts with a good hook. 🔑

Which you probably have heard of this many times before, but what is the hook actually supposed to do besides just... HOOK? 🤔

The hook should set the stage for the rest of your story.

It should help build anticipation for what's to come.

Now what?

Make your story truly IMPACTFUL.

Start by asking yourself, what can my audience gain from this video?

Identify that PAIN POINT.

Identify that struggle that your audience may be going through, and try to intertwine your story into it. 🤝

By doing so, your audience gets to associate those emotions, relate to your story, and see you as a trustworthy source of advice.

But, don’t forget!

Always bring your story back to your original point, which is addressing your audience's struggles.

To keep them ENGAGED and INVESTED.

Storytelling is truly underrated in the business environment.

And just because it’s not working for you doesn’t mean it’s not effective. 😉

You probably just don’t know how to tell effective stories.

TikTok vs. Instagram 👀

I know it can be overwhelming to choose the right platform to start with.

But, no matter what industry you're in, you really want to focus on two platforms in the beginning.

Those two platforms are TikTok and Instagram.

Let me explain why.

Well, TikTok is definitely the app to be on if you want to GROW quickly. 📈

TikTok is perfect for casting a wide net!

So focus on creating a lot of content on TikTok to get your name out there and create BRAND AWARENESS.

Then comes Instagram.

Instagram has the advantage of having DM's and stories.

Meaning, Instagram is where you NURTURE your community and hopefully CONVERT them into actual customers.

That's right, Instagram is your MONEY-MAKER, baby! 💵

Sooo… Both of these platforms are great to be on.

Use TikTok to grab attention and build community.

Then LEAD them to Instagram to nurture and even sell to them.

Struggling to FOCUS while working from home? 😕

Here are 3 productivity tips you wish you knew sooner!

1️⃣ First things first, start your day by getting OUTSIDE

or take a walk in the morning. 🌞

It'll leave you feeling energized before you work the whole day from your desk.

2️⃣ Next, set a timer for 15-30 minutes and focus on the task at hand.

I know it sounds so simple, but you will be surprised how much work you can actually accomplish in just 15 minutes.

Once the timer goes off,

give yourself a little break and REWARD 🏆 for sticking it through.

Then repeat the process until you’re done for the day.

3️⃣ Finally, the last but the best work-from-home tip is to work anywhere else but HOME.

Yes, you read that right.

Working from home can be REPETITIVE and ISOLATING.

So switch up your work environment to help in keeping things interesting.

Find a place like a cafe ☕ and associate certain tasks with the location.

You can even switch cafes in the middle of the day and then work on new tasks.

REMEMBER:

Working from home is a LUXURY that not everyone has.

So be thankful for the opportunity.

Give these tips a try and let me know how they work for you! 😍

🎉 Celebrate a SMALL WIN today! 🎉

Completed a task on your to-do list?

CELEBRATE 🥳

Finally sent that email you've been putting off?

CELEBRATE 🥳

Felt nervous about an interview but still showed up?

CELEBRATE 🥳 You faced your fears and leaped!

When we have a small win, we often fail to appreciate it.

Why?

Because we tend to compare ourselves to others' successes.

Especially on social media,

we see people flaunting their six-figure incomes and seemingly perfect lives.

And it's easy to feel like our achievements are nothing in comparison.

But every milestone deserves recognition. 🙌🏻

No matter how “small” it is.

Don't let the achievements of others overshadow your own PROGRESS.

So, what’s your small win today?

STOP SCROLLING! 🛑

This will change the way you look at social media.

I once saw this TikTok video where a creator said that,

“Your social media is not just for your friends.

It’s for YOU and your DREAMS,

and it's meant to put something out in the world intentionally,

so that people who need you can find you.

That is what social media is for.”

IMAGINE THIS:

Somewhere out there, someone is waiting to be inspired by you.

Someone is searching for the very thing you have to offer.

So, put your content out there for people who find value in it.

And make it worth every inch of their time.

Maintaining a WORK-LIFE balance can be a challenge,

but it's important for your overall well-being.

That’s why, you need to set BOUNDARIES.

Determine what is most important to you and allocate your time accordingly.

I recommend following a calendar 📅 or batch-tasking.

Which is basically dedicating a full hour of your focus to ONE thing rather than trying to multitask.

It's also essential to take great rest and recharge to avoid BURNOUT.

Create a routine that allows time with family, hobbies, and more.

And most importantly…

COMMUNICATE your boundaries with your employer and colleagues.

Remember, balance looks different for everyone, so find what works best for you and stick to it.

REMEMBER: You can get to where you want to be in your career without having to sacrifice so much personal time.

Why does your COMMUNITY matter?

They say that your community is one of the BEST marketing strategies out there.

But why?

1️⃣ Community gives you ACCOUNTABILITY.

It gives you somebody to say, “Hey, you're not creating that content.”

And it keeps you accountable for your progress.

2️⃣ Being able to get community FEEDBACK.

It prevents you from sitting in some vacuum chamber thinking to yourself, “Oh, is this a good idea?”

Because you get to bounce ideas off of people.

3️⃣ The NETWORK effect.

Think about when you post something on social media,

how many people have the chance to see your content?

You’re not sure what it's going to do, but it could go VIRAL.

The same thing goes for a community.

You have pretty much LIMITLESS opportunities.

You have a whole network of people there to support you and care about your SUCCESS. 🙌

Let’s settle this ONCE AND FOR ALL… 🙄

One thing people tend to forget when consistently posting on social media is the actual PERCEPTION.

For example,

When you stop posting, people ASSUME you're out of business 🚫

or no longer doing what you were doing.

And, I think that's something that is often overlooked.

So.

How do you maintain a CONSISTENT posting schedule?

You might be stressing over how often and when you should post.

When in reality, you don’t need to STRESS about posting 2-3 pieces of content DAILY.

Ask yourself.

What's manageable for you and your routine? 🤷‍♀️

No matter how many times it is, if it's 1-3 times a week or even less.

Whatever it may be.

Choose a frequency that you can SUSTAIN in the long run.

Do something that makes you happy, not STRESSED out. 🙌

Share this with someone who needs to see this. 🙂

If you want to build MEANINGFUL connections with people,

this is what you need to learn! 🤝

The worst thing you can do when engaging with people is EXPECTING something out of them.

Expectations can often cloud genuine interactions,

and people don't respond well to feeling used or taken advantage of.

REMEMBER: when you're engaging with people, you're engaging with another human being.

So, what do you need to do?

Make them feel SEEN and HEARD. 👀👂

Be so interested in them!

Why?

Because people love talking about THEMSELVES.

Being a good listener is key!

The best example of this is when creating content.

Think about your audience.

Take a look at what they like and engage with the most.

Use their responses to create content that's RELATABLE to them.

But don't forget to insert small details about yourself too!

It's a two-way street; while you learn about them, they also get to know you better.

This helps them relate to you on a more personal level, and creates a sense of mutual understanding and trust.

·

Building meaningful connections takes time and effort,

but you have to believe that the power of genuine connections is INVALUABLE.

So, keep at it, and remember to just be yourself! 🌟

Let’s OPTIMIZE your social media profile with these 4 EASY TIPS!

Just remember, your profile picture is your FIRST IMPRESSION,

A couple of emojis 🫧💟 can make your profile stand out too!
