Social By Nao (2024)

22/03/2024

Lil business milestone ✅

The Social By Nao website is now LIVE!

Oooft what a project this has been - who knew so much work into making one of these?! 😂

I can’t lie, I started the year having such an identity crisis, overthinking where I fit in the SMM industry and struggling to show up completely as myself without comparison creeping in…

And this website feels like the tangible output of the work I’ve done since then - and the work of the best team of wonderful humans who helped make it happen:

- Rach is the brains behind the brand zhuzh, web design & build, putting my personality into the brand and translating that into a website that feels like “Nao”⚡️

- Ellie’s words make the website actually sound like me (but better) and her enthusiastic encouragement makes me CRY 🥹

- SEO is a whole new ballgame to me but luckily I can borrow Jodie’s expertise to make it all feel less intimidating 😌

More updates to come but for now - I’m taking a sec to enjoy this milestone…

“Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.”

I first read this quote back in 2022. It’s had quite the profound impact for a quote in a book called “Confessions of a Forty-Something F**k Up.” (Highly recommend.)

And despite reading it a long time ago, this week it’s really been stuck in my head. So today, I finally added it to the post-it wall of quotes in my office (like a real life Pinterest board 🤣)

And I’m sharing it here, open for you to take from it whatever you need right now, too.

In fact, I think I may just make it my mantra for 2024 😌

I am AT CAPACITY for 2023 🎉

A quick post while I’m hiding with a Rudolph nose and a box of tissues to let you know the diary is officially closed until the New Year.

The next few weeks are about getting current clients and myself ready for a Christmas break, plus some good old admin to get 2024-ready 💻

Thank you for keeping me so busy!

A love letter to my clients 💌

This week has been a little different at Social By Nao HQ as my wonderful client-turned-friend .intuition came to visit 🥳

Spending some in-person time with Chantal has been super special.

Not only did we go for joint-late-birthday celebrations, but it also showed me that Social By Nao is becoming everything I hoped it would be 👇

More than just Instagram Management, I want to create a space where my clients feel supported, like they’ve got their own personal cheerleader, and can always run questions or ideas past me without judgement.

Seeing it come to life is magic ✨

So thank you Chantal for a fab few days, and to all my clients who make my work a dream 🥹

(PS shoutout to for snapping these photos at the end of Chantal’s EPIC brand shoot 📷)

Don’t let the noise online drown out the fire in your belly that got you to where you are 🫶

If all the advice you’re consuming is more of a hindrance than a help, it’s time to go back to basics 👇

⚡️ Remember who TF you are. Why did you start? Who do you want to help?

⚡️Bank your ideas. When you’re inspired and fired up, note those golden nuggets down. On days where creative block hits, go back to that list and borrow from your OWN idea bank.

⚡️Consume LESS. Find inspiration in podcasts, in music, in a walk for a lil lunchtime treat - instead of looking for it on the ‘gram from people who make you feel like crap💩

You got you this far 🔥

Save this post as your reminder to back yourself! 💪

Making content creation a priority? YES ✅

Crafting brand new content week in, week out? Who has the time? 🙅🏻‍♀️

Posting on Instagram isn’t just finding a picture and hitting “share.”

➡️ It starts with the planning, ensuring your content has a purpose, deciding on the key message.

➡️ Then designing, filming, editing…

➡️ Writing the caption, choosing a Call to Action & adding in the hashtags

That’s a lot to think about on top of serving your clients 🤷🏻‍♀️

So don’t waste all that hard work on just ONE post.

Instead - REPURPOSE 👏

👉 Take the messaging from a reel your audience resonated with and spin it into a carousel.

👉 Filmed some B-roll footage for a reel last week? Use the video again with a different message.

👉 Give it a couple of months and you can even repost the exact same content if it’s still relevant.

… TRIPLING your output for the same amount of effort 🙌

Meaning more time to serve your clients, or more time to take care of YOU.

So SAVE this post & start cutting your content creation time in half ⚡️

Client Win 🏆

This one is a double-whammy!

I will always pride myself on the transformations my clients FEEL - feeling supported, no longer frazzled by their to-do list, the weight lifted by handing over their Instagram accounts 🙏

And on top of that, my client has also seen TANGIBLE results 🎉

And if you want this for yourself, I have just ONE management space for a November start.

Is it yours? 💌

I can’t imagine a life where I didn’t…

🤞 Trust my instincts to make moves before I ‘felt ready’ because I backed myself to make it work.

👩🏻‍💻 Continually invest both time and money into learning & training to deliver the best services I can.

🫶 Put myself out there with online and irl networking to make new connections and friendships.

Because if I hadn’t been brave enough to do those things, I would never have:

⚡️ Quit my full-time corporate role to give myself the freedom to live a more flexible, balanced life.

💖 Made new friends who inspire me, support me & are just there to lend an ear (and eat brunch).

💪 Supported 20+ INCREDIBLE business owners with their content and social media.

Social By Nao has only had my full-time attention for 4 months but it excites me to think about where it’s headed 🙌

I feel incredibly lucky to go to my 10am weekday gym classes, or never have to sit in rush hour traffic.

I feel incredibly lucky to work with LOVELY humans who make my job a joy and choose to work with me month after month.

I feel incredibly lucky to be surrounded by cheerleaders who will put my name forward when I’m not in the room, or tell me they’re proud when I need to hear it most.

But if I’m honest… I know it’s not all luck 🫢

It’s the result of ballsy decisions/investments, building a network of incredible people, and making my clients HAPPY.

It’s the result of doing something I love & doing everything I can to make sure I can KEEP doing it.

And I am SO grateful that doing what I love, is helping YOU keep doing what you love too 🙏

I think that’s pretty cool, don’t you? 🥹

Want to SPEED UP content creation? ⚡️

You’ve spent the day working with clients, you’re Zoom’d out and just want to put Bake Off on and switch off for the evening.

Let’s break that cycle!

Your time is more valuable spent elsewhere, serving your clients doing what you do best, or being a present friend, partner or Mum at home 🙏

So, here are 5 tips to help you do just that ➡️

And if you just need someone to create for you, DM the word CONTENT & let’s get your content bundle booked in 🙌

Hey friends, it’s been a while! 👋

Time for a little re-introduction, wouldn’t you agree?

🧠 I’m a sucker for a cheesy quote & all about mindset.

🍫 My first love in this life is Cadbury’s chocolate, but Costa Banana Bread also has a special place in my heart.

🤸🏻‍♀️ I’ve been going to pole fitness classes since Jan & LOVE it, so I’m often covered in bruises.

And while I’ve still been here supporting clients behind the scenes, I’m so excited to be ‘back’ 🥹

Ready to share lots of handy tips, be your very own one-woman-cheer-squad & help your business GROW 💪
