+ Look for what triggered these feelings of imposter syndrome. In order to overcome the problem, you have to identify the source of the issue.

+ Recognize your hard work and successes. It’s easy to focus on the negatives or things you don’t know. In order to overcome imposter syndrome, you must focus on the effort you put in and the skills you do have.

5 THINGS TO CONSIDER CONTENT CAPTION

When you’re creating a content calendar, you want to consider these 5 things to ensure you put out quality work to your audience 👇🏼

➀ Determine your content strategy goals. What are you trying to achieve with the work you are showing to your audience?

➁ Nail down brand persona to best reach your target market. It’s important to understand who you’re talking to and the best personality to resonate with them.

➂ Plan your content with concept, caption and image. Don’t just throw + go! Bulk content creation and planning ahead of time will make for quality work.

➃ Think about the month’s sales, giveaways + ads. You want to highlight your promotional posts and make sure your other content supports that. Promotions should be no more than 20% of your content.

➄ Make sure the other 80% of your content adds value through educating your audience and building brand awareness.

Which tip do find most helpful?

We’ve all heard of the term “niching down,” but we are here to tell you why it’s so important and how you do it.

Here’s a quick run down!

Niching down isn’t “the beauty industry,” or a “fashion boutique,” or being a “mom blogger.”

It’s going even a step further. Those terms are the iNDUSTRY you’re in.. not your niche. Your niche is who you are talking to within that industry.

For instance, if you’re a mom blogger.. are you talking to new moms? Seasoned mamas? Moms who are empty nesters?

If you’re in the beauty industry, are you helping busy ladies with quick beauty tips? Are you speaking to those who want help with reducing hormonal acne? Or are you talking to middle aged women who want to reduce the effects of aging?

These are examples of how you “niche down.” Don’t be afraid to get specific. It’s easy to get caught up in wanting to be for everyone, that we don’t realize when we do that, we end up talking to no one in particular.

Hi, hey, hello! I took a break the month of July from regular posting and taking on new clients. I’m back into the swing of things this month, but it’s so important to give yourself permission to pause when you need it.

Especially as an entrepreneur, it’s hard to press pause when you’re a one woman show. It feels like your world of business will stop spinning. That you’ll fall behind. The constant pressure to fill all the roles of your business can weigh heavy at times.

July was filled with family travel, focusing on some health issues that arose and taking care of myself. Remember - you can’t pour from an empty cup. Success isn’t always linear, and taking breaks is often the most productive thing you can do for yourself + your business.

I’m not preaching laziness by any means. But we’re all human, and it’s important to let yourself take the space to heal when you need.

So anywhooo, it feels good to get back into my groove. I can’t wait to get creative with you all!! Designing logos, creating marketing strategies and diving into your brand needs fills my soul with happiness, so let’s get to it! 🙌🏼✨

15/07/2021

You don’t have to have it all figured out before you get started. Begin with a dream, a plan and a whole lot of determination. Remember, it’s okay to learn as you go! If you don’t chase your dreams, you’ll end up helping someone else chase theirs! (emoji) //

Are you building a credible brand?!

Credibility comes from strong brand strategy and is key for customer loyalty & satisfaction 👇🏼

Passion & why 👉🏼 this is important because people don’t buy into what you do, they buy into why you do it.

Brand promise 👉🏼 this needs to be very clear, as it sets you apart and guarantees what you’ll do for your future customers.

Identify your target market 👉🏼 your brand shouldn’t offer everything to everyone. It is important to narrow your market to optimize your efforts.

Clear & consistent design 👉🏼 every interaction with your brand, from logo, visuals, customer experience, message & so on should be consistent to increase awareness and loyalty.

Clear content strategy 👉🏼 your strategy should be a combined effort of all of these components that leads to you achieving your goals. This should include actionable steps and outlined goals.

We know creating content can be exhausting + time consuming. It’s easy to feel burnt out and put out less quality work.

We surely understand, so here are a few ways to repurpose what you’ve already worked so hard on so you can get a little more bang for your buck! 👇🏼

👩🏼‍💻 Do you have a recent blog post? Promote it in an Instagram post and have your followers check it out.

🎥 Turn informative posts into video content to share to your stories.

✍🏻 Share successful reviews with your following. Make a testimonial graphic and give your customers some love!

📊 Use your insights from Instagram or your blog into a post. This will also lend legitimacy to what you offer!

📱 Update old blog posts or Instagram content with new information. Let your followers know how you or your industry are evolving.

🎥 Turn blog content into highly consumable video content.

I remove followers every week…

Want to know why? 👇🏼

Because I want to create a strong + engaged community on my Instagram and that requires cleaning house from time to time.

Another reason? Because Instagram decides to continue to push your content to more of your following or stop it dead in its track, based on whether a post is deemed successful.

How do they determine this? They take the rate of engagement (likes, comments, shares + saves) in the first few hours of posting compared to your follower count. If this ratio is low, it’ll stall. If it’s high, it’s pushed to more people.

If you have a lot of inactive/ghost followers or accounts that don’t fit your target market, they are less likely to interact with your posts + the rate of engagement to follower count will be consistently lower. The result is that less people who actually want + need to see your content will see your posts on a regular basis, if at all.

You can avoid this by going through your follower list regularly and removing followers. Take your time and do it right! The number at the top of the screen doesn’t matter, but the quality of your following does!

Don’t be extreme with removing these accounts though, Instagram doesn’t like spammy actions! We recommend removing 50 a week. Swipe 👉🏼 to see how you can pinpoint a ghost/inactive account.

Customers love to support brands they trust. People get behind a strong why, a story.. and that loyalty is built by staying true to who you are.

By doing so, your customers + clients will trust who they are working with, buying from, and will know exactly what they will get when doing so.

It’s always important serve your customers with passion. Credible brands don’t sell their products or services, they sell the solution to their customer’s problems.

Let’s build strong brand values with strategy, consistency and customer satisfaction together! A happy tip for your Tuesday ✨ //

& don’t you ever forget it 👊🏼

The other night, I had the honor of speaking on the Women Wonderland panel for for female entrepreneurs in the Asheville area. One of the topics we spoke on was fear & overcoming the naysayers.

What did I learn most? That the little voice in our head that tells us we can’t have it all - that’s FEAR. It’s fear of failure, of disappointing ourselves & others, and it’s fear of what others will think.

You know what I have to say about that? We can either f*ck everything and run or forget everything & RISE. I choose to RISE. Who wants to rise with me?! 👏🏼👏🏼🔥
