Do you have to spend hours and hours figuring out and create your social media posts?
As a fellow network marketer I know how challenging that can be ESPECIALLY if you run a busy life. I’ll share with you my strategy on how I create powerful content that brings you leads and customers spending only 90 minutes every week. Watch the video below to find out:
In the video I talk about shortcuts and automation of your business so you can relax on the beach while you have prospects flooding your inbox. I do this through attraction marketing and you can learn EXACTLY how in my Free Attraction Marketing Book Camp. Click the Learn More button below.
Here is how to be more effective on social media and spend less time guessing what works and what doesn’t. Let me start by sharing a bit of my story…
When I started my business I was very motivated to succeed and would do anything it takes, but here is the thing I found. Most trainers I was following shared that you have to put a lot of time to get your business of the ground and work like “from 8 to faint” on it.
But what if I didn’t have that much time?
I’m a busy mom, working a full time job, was then commuting to work and my son was in daycare from open to close. The little time I had on the weekend (and not all weekend because I was working on Sundays too) I would hardly catch up with life.
I couldn’t shut off my life, lock myself in a cabin in the mountains and work my business “from 8 to faint“, despite all obstacles and “until” it happens.
I see too many moms like myself quit their business and leaving the industry for this reason.
So my business was growing slowly, but I could never catch that break where I’d hit a momentum and it would skyrocket. It was the lack of time to fully focus on it. So what is the solution?
Attraction marketing saved my life
After doin all the insane runs, talking to thousands of people in a month, I finally came across a different way, a new approach to building my business.
“Work smarter, not harder” I saw marketers say this and I was curious to how I can too be more effective in less time.
I never minded working hard if that’s what it took. I worked lots of nights till 2 am and was waking up before 6. But eventually you will burn out. You can’t do this forever.
And my team… all this activity was hard to duplicate. It is hard to find people crazy as you to do this and not quit.
So here’s my 90 minute plan…
First of, have ONE VALUABLE piece of content per week. It can be a blog, podcast, YouTube video, Facebook or Instagram live or a long written post.
I use YouTube and post one educational video on every Monday. I also write a blog you are reading now and I embed my YouTube video to it.
Invest most of your time and effort into creating that. Have a notebook with you if an idea pops for your video and write it down. I always have one with me and do this.
So I record 4 videos at a time that takes me about 1 hour. I do this once per month. I also have time scheduled where I prepare my notes, topics and headlines for that video.
Then every week I write my blog using one of these prerecorded videos. I upload one to YouTube as I am writing my blog. Once my blog is published, I send 3 emails out that week announcing my blog and reminding my followers to read it.
That’s it.
I also do Reels daily
Short video content is amazing and you are really missing out if you are not using it. This gets me the most leads for my business out of everything and it is ABSOLUTELY FREE.
I post them daily, BUT I also create 7-10 Reels in one go and save them as drafts on my Instagram. Then every day I can just go in and grab one, edit text and caption and post it.
I also like to promote and repurpose my content around for more views… so I will turn my Instagram Reel into a Facebook Reel, YouTube short and a Tik-Tok video.
You never know where your lead is going to come from. Sometimes one video takes off on one platform, and you won’t know which one until you try. In the last 2 weeks my YouTube shorts have been very popular and that brought me 20 new subscribers to my channel plus views of my longer content.
When you are scrolling and watching Reels, save the ones that you like and can model for your niche. When I’m recording them, I have different tops, accessories like caps, hats, mugs.
I just scheduled 30 days of content for my Facebook business page
This is easy… the main video you have for the week can drive your other content for that same week. For example, you can post a quote, share one tip, do a live video on the same topic, ask a question….
My content is planned by theme of the day, so I can easily just preload and schedule posts for the whole month. This leaves you free hands to then spend your week engaging, making new connections and not worry about what to post.
Here’s my weekly theme for my personal page so you get an idea:
- Mondays- I post about my new blog
- Tuesday- A quote and a live video
- Wednesday- My boss aka my daughter Grace
- Thursday- Something funny to boost engagement
- Friday- Team building, recognition or a celebration post
- Saturday/Sunday- Lifestyle posts
Your engagement posts help your other posts get more visible.
Another thing to think about when you are making your themed schedule is your brand. Think of 5 brands that represent you, not just your business. For me that’s travel, family, food, network marketing and mindset.
Using this you can pre-plan your content for the whole month.
When I was in Croatia this summer for a month, my priority was spending time with my family. My business was all pre-planned so all I did was post lifestyle posts about my travel and I was getting leads and sales on autopilot from systems I have in place.
And again if you’d like to have system like this in place, then grab my Free Attraction Marketing Boot Camp by clicking the button below.
