Confession, I have been avoiding REELZ! 😬

Yep, I am an Instagram Coach and teach you how to do all the things, but this tool seemed a little too time consuming to me; anyone else with me?

But, I know either way it’s an important tool to use, to gain more exposure for my business in a creative way and I just need to take the time to do it.

So here are 3 tips that I am implementing to get going, why don’t you try them along with me?

📽Watch a couple pros that give good advice like &
📽Make it your own. Did you know know some of you won’t have music? So just talk! You don’t have to use music or lots of captions.

📽Just start making them, feature your fave products, tips, how your services can help others. You are never going to figure it out until you start!

Friends, let’s get on board with Reelz. As we do this together I will be letting you know what I learn and how I start implementing them for my business. Tag me when you make yours.

Your too much!

Did you know I have never heard that said about me? You think, lucky you! But I would say, shame on me!

I have worked my whole life to protect my ego so I don’t create a scene or stick out. I want everyone to like me and and no one to thing whoa that’s too much! I want everyone to like me and agree with me. But that is not how I impact a world.

I admire those bold women who stand out, who are too much because they may be afraid of what people say but they do it anyway. They know they will get the comments and maybe some criticism but they will say it anyway.

So I wore this crazy floppy hat, oversized glasses and leopard mask the other day and as I was walking into have lunch with the hubs I asked do I look too much?
And he says, “you look fine, it doesn’t matter, you have one life to live, my dear.”
And you know what, no one said anything except, I got compliments on my hat and mask!

I realized the more I step out and wear the damn thing or say things I believe that most of the time no one is thinking anything or will say something, they are too worried about themselves. Life is too short to worry about if I’m too much or think about people not liking me. Plus it encourages others to step out.

Who else worries about being too much?
What do you do to overcome it?

I am grateful for my family. I am thankful for their health, for their love and compassion. What a blessing I get to be John’s wife and Madalyn and Maxwell’s mom.
I am grateful for the Lord providing for us this year and we got to help and bless others in need this year.
I am thankful for all of you, my friends, family and clients.
I am thankful we have another year to look forward to and make the best of!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Create Guides for Your Product or Services 📖

There is a newer feature for Instagram that will help your business market your products and services, it’s an IG Guide!

This is such a great opportunity to feature and categorize your posts about your products, tips & tricks, about you and more! With the Instagram updates it can now be apart of the icons you see above your feed along with your feed graph, Reelz, IG TV, Shopping and Tagged.

Anything you have posted on your feed you can create into a guide. Think about it, if you own a business that sells a variety of health care products 🧖🏻‍♀️💆‍♀️you could create a separate guide on the products to use for oily skin, dry skin and sensitive skin based on the posts that you created for those products. Or a guide for looks using your eye shadows or lip 💄colors. Another idea is if you are a graphic designer and you have created posts on how to find your branding colors, fonts or looks you could create a guide on Branding. Realtors, if you offer great tips in your feed on preparing your house 🏡 to sell and other valuable information, oh the guides you could create!

There are endless possibilities for you to create another opportunity for you to become the expert in your industry for your ideal followers and clients in a simple way without having to use more words or text. It’s an added tool to help you grow, market and a monetize your business on Instagram.

If you need help coming up with the best guides your business page, check out the 1 on 1 intensives I am offering right now in the link in my bio.

You can checkout what I have created so far with more guides to come shortly.
Let me know if you have started using this tool I’d love to check yours out!

I Can’t Get Out of this Box!📦

I just got off a call with someone I paid to brainstorm with. I felt like I have been on a hamster wheel 🐹 in my mind these last few weeks and couldn’t get out!! What a relief it was to talk to someone from the outside that could help lift the lids of my box and show me another way of how to get out.

To be able to dump all the thoughts out and have someone else help arrange them in a way that makes sense to me and to the outside person was such a weight lifted off my shoulders.

I feel lighter, clearer 💡in my mind, more space to be creative again and to think!!! Brain dumping and brainstorming is so powerful. It allows you to step outside of the box that you put yourself in and see what is possible again!

Where in life do you need a good brain storm session? Where in your businesses do you need help lifting the lid on your box to see another possible way of growing or marketing?

If you would like your own intensive 90 minute Holiday🎄 brainstorming session, I am opening some sessions throughout the holiday season. You will have an opportunity to brain dump, brain storm and then work through the solution. I will also give you feedback on your business from what I see and give you recommendations that will help you keep your business moving forward.
Check out the link in my bio.

Let me know how you feel about brainstorming below and if you need help!

Don’t Tell Me, Show Me!

I don’t know about you, but sometimes, I just need someone to hold my hand and SHOW me how to do something.
🤝
Right now, for me, that is hiring someone to hold my hand and show me HOW to break down my work into batches each day and learning now to batch schedule my week. This may be easy for some of you and you wouldn’t need help on this. But my friends, I struggle with organizing and coming up with a plan on my own.
🤝
For so long people would TELL ME, “plan out your week, come up with a launch plan, organize your week, put together a plan for this and that…” It would cause me so much anxiety, I didn’t know where to start, I thought I was dumb and I always asking myself, “how do I come up with a plan?” Instead of asking for help or even know what to ask, I would just give up and wing it.
🤝
Finally, I realized in order to continue to grow the way I want as a leader and business owner, and frankly for my own sanity, I need to learn how to have a plan and I need to hire someone to SHOW me how to do that. It has been one of the best investments I have made!!
A weight has lifted now that I have a template that I can plug my life into. All because I invested in someone who SHOWED me how to do it! Now I am empowered with the tools to know what to do when it comes to planning out my week!
🤝
What is something you have always struggled with and wished someone would just SHOW you how to do it?
🤝
Share with us, you never know who might be able to help you! 😉

🚫Get Rid of Your Fancy Fonts🚫

If you want to market your business and make sure your Instagram Business Page is discoverable when people are searching, don’t🚫 use those fancy fonts in your Instagram Name.

The reason is that IG algorithm does not recognize fonts outside of Instagram and so those key words, name or descriptives will not show up in the search bar.

For example ➡️ I have a good friend who has a fancy font for her Instagram Name “Angela M” and her handle is “” so if I don’t remember what her handle is, and I don’t remember her lastname and all I remember is her first name, “Angela”, I will not be able to find her page because she used the Fancy Font for her name. (Swipe over in the photos to see an example)

Because if this, is could hurt her discoverability 🔍 when people are trying to find her when they want to work with her or even when someone is looking for a business within her industry.

You want to be found by your Instagram Handle & Instagram Name as a business.
If you want to use fancy fonts, put them in the text of your bio or a feed post.

➡️If you would like more feedback on your Instagram page or need help with your bio, comment below.

➡️Save this post for help whenever your editing your bio.

➡️Share this with a friend who has fancy fonts in their Instagram Name.

Is your business page discoverable on Instagram?🔍

When people go to the search button on Instagram, will you come up when they search for your industry?

For example, let’s say you specialize in maternity, portrait photography 📸 When someone is looking for a maternity photographer in their area, like Boise, Idaho, will your Instagram account pop up?
🔍

HERES the TIP: Instead of using your handle in both your Instagram Handle (User Name) and Instagram Name ( Name) in your profile, change your “Name” to something else that describes what you do, BECAUSE, those words are searchable. You already have your “name”and “photography” in your IG handle. So change your “IG name” to “Maternity photographer| Idaho”. That way you are searchable by location and what you specialize in.
🔍

This is a great way to be able to maximize your business when people are searching for your industry. Think about those key words that people would try to find you. By your name, industry, specialties, location. Think about your ideal client and what they would be searching for to find you. Then use those key words for your “IG Name”.
You can also change your “IG Name” to see if different words work better. Like “Idaho Photographer” or “Baby Photographer” depending on what your handle has in it, you don’t need to be redundant.
🔍

The key is utilizing the the searchable space on your Instagram Business Page that you have available for people to find you when they search your industry.
🔍

Is your handle and name under your profile picture the same or different? Swipe over to see the examples that I give.
If it is, what are you going to change it to?
🔍

Share this with a friend who could use this tip. Save ✔️it to use as a reference tool in the future. And message me if you have any questions or need help with this.

“My product can sell its self, I really don’t need to show my face on social media”.

While that may be true in person, when someone can hold, touch and try your product, it is totally different on social media. We can touch, feel or try on your product, we need more than that! We need connection.

In today’s society there are so many varieties of the same product out there. They are sold by many different retailers and consultants, that people are changing the way they purchase.

Let’s be real, even though you have an exceptional product, someone else has something like it. So the question is 🤔when you are trying to sell on social media, how are you going to stand out with the same product that other people have as well?

The answer is you 🤗my friend! It’s YOU they want to connect with to purchase that product. They want to know who YOU are, why you sell or make this product. They want to connect with YOUR story, YOUR why, YOUR behind the scenes.

The way you do that, is to connect by showing your face, creating videos 📽with you in them, showing up on stories on a regular basis. Help your followers and future clients, connect to your why and who you are. Show them behind the scenes, using, wearing and sharing your product.
Give them YOU and they will buy YOUR product.

If you are struggling 🆘 with this, let me know, I have created something just for you coming soon!

Something you may not know about me…

I grew up hunting and fishing with my dad and still enjoy it to this day. I went to Hunter’s Ed Safety class when I was 12. I would get in early in the mornings and freeze my butt off to duck hunt with him. I drew a couple tags, Antelope, never got one, Elk, never got one, but will always having fond memories of ALWAYS doing it with my dad.

Last year, We got go to up to the Family Lodge in Port Alsworth, AK, my parents dream home and did some amazing Greyling and Salmon fly fishing, once again with my dad and with my family. I also got to go back up to hunt for Brown Bear last fall. And even though, once again, I never got anything, the experience spending the time with my dad was a priceless one.

May dad has taught me so many life lessons through hunting and fishing that I would never learn anywhere else, here are a few:
I will survive even if my feet are cold❄️
Prepare and have everything laid out the night before you go hunting✔️
ALWAYS pack candy to help pass the sitting time🍫
Learn how to squat and p*e without getting it on your feet when there is no bathroom🧻
Appreciate the world and what God has created🌎
Never hunt on ANY land without permission🚫

There are so many I could go on, but what I love is that I can pass them on to my kids.

What is something you have learned from your parents that you couldn’t have learned anywhere else?

👊🏻The Feeling of a Goal Hit👊🏻

This was a big deal for me to post a goal for all to see, what if I didn’t make it? What would people think, if I didn’t?

Because I am a recovering People Pleaser, I am choosing not to care what people think if I don’t make a goal. This is about me being consistent and showing up and doing what it takes to meet my goals, NOT about who I need to please!

What about you? How easy is it for you to share your goals with the world?
