It’s worth the wait…

This was taken at around 0530am in Canmore, Alberta 🏔 We were shooting a time lapse of the sunrise over the mountains and I remember taking a quick snap of this and then running 🏃🏻‍♂️ back to the car to my warm coffee 🥶 ☕️

Side of wisdom: Waiting for this shot was so much fun (despite the cold) because I had a clear, defined idea of what I wanted to achieve. So it took the stress out of the journey to the end product. If it’s a business, a deadline or a shot like this.

- Define what it is you want
- Build a clear path and work hard towards your goals

That way you can sit back with your coffee and enjoy the view as your dreams play out ❤️

Basically, we do the showing off for you, so you can concentrate on your day to day 😄🤫

Just DM us! We are new, but we are here for you 🤩

Meet the founders of Ikigai Social.

We are Saterra & Dan (Commonly known as Sat & Dan). We have worked within this industry throughout its evolution to what it is today. This is us in Hoi An, Vietnam where we spent 1.5 months exploring the country via Scooter and Airbnb throughout 2019. We both come from very opposite backgrounds (More on that later) but are similar and compatible in so many ways. As well as business partners over multiple ventures.

We will be introducing ourselves more and more to give you a better feel for who we are and who will be creating your content! If you ever choose to join us that is! We would love to have you 😄🙏

Struggling to think of content to post?

Pictures of your cat are great for your camera roll and family photo album, but when you are posting about your business, you might be stuck with how to post content that clearly expresses your service online to others.

Finding suitable images and a strongly worded description can be a lot of work and time for someone who isn't used to that sort of commitment. Creating content can be difficult and finding inspiration that is appealing to your specific audience can be even harder!

Have you ever thought about:

- Focusing on giving value.
- Teaching something.
- Telling them something personal.
- Sharing stories and relatable topics.

Being a human on social media might seem obvious, but when it comes to your business, it's probably what will make you stand out the most...so just be you 😸

Struggling to stay consistent with your posts? ✅✅❌✅

Trust us, it can be hard to keep on top of your work when it feels like you have 10 plates spinning at once! And not letting those plates fall can amount to unnecessary pressure, stress and anxiety that you don't need.

Running your business and posting about it online is supposed to be fun! Don't let the pressures of having to post every day take over and consume those positive thoughts.

- Plan out your posts for the week/month
- Use a scheduling tool (Loomly, Later, etc)
- Think about what our audience wants to see/learn from you
- Don't put so much pressure on yourself! (It's not fun that way)

Remember, Social media is supposed to be about interacting with your network in a fun and collaborative way. So don't stress, just post :)

Tired of not being able to stand out on Social Media? Make a conscious decision to learn about what your audience wants:

- Align yourself with their values as a customer. Are they expecting a high standard?
- Don't people please! You don't have to stand out to EVERYONE.
- 100's of dedicated followers will always be better than 10,000's.
- Take care of them as you would like to be taken care of.
