Purposeless Posting – Instagram Content Mistake Pt.2 [Margins] ၏ စာသားမှတ်တမ်းအပြည့်အစုံ

WEBVTT 00:00:02.720 --> 00:00:07.360 You're listening to Margins, a mini episode of the magnetic pool. 00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:16.320 These are off-the-cuff moments pulled from the archives of live workshops, guest features, and QA's with me, Amy Pearson. 00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:18.320 These minis are unscripted. 00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:21.679 They are less polished, but they're still potent. 00:00:22.079 --> 00:00:23.920 Take only what you need. 00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:25.600 Let's get into it. 00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:33.600 How frequently are you posting? 00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:40.320 Looking back on my notes, I'm that person that will post and get in like a groove and then I'll stop for a while. 00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:42.240 But I'm really trying to do everyone. 00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:43.280 Don't feel bad about it. 00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:46.000 I'm really trying to do twice a week at this moment. 00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:46.960 Okay, great. 00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:48.960 Is that manageable for you at the moment? 00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:51.759 It's going to be a little difficult, but yeah, sure. 00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:56.159 I think this is what I mean by like having a sort of a strategy, right? 00:00:56.240 --> 00:01:03.359 Because if we if we don't know what we're going to be posting or have an idea of how we're going to get it done, it feels like a mammoth task. 00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:09.840 But if we've kind of got some things in place to make it really easy, it doesn't feel like it's such a hard thing to do. 00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:14.159 So this is great because obviously we all need to have an introduction post. 00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:18.159 And actually, you're showing me up because I should have one and I don't even have one right now. 00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:19.200 Um, I love it. 00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:19.680 It's great. 00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:22.000 And obviously you've got lots of engagement on there too. 00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:30.799 I think this is like the perfect example of one of those pieces of content that the goal of this is actually just to show people who you are. 00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:34.640 And yes, to get engagement, but I didn't mention this in the workshop. 00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:39.040 But sometimes actually the goal isn't about what we think it is on social media. 00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:43.760 Like sometimes the goal really is just teach people about who you are and have a place for them to find you. 00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:47.519 And that is like accomplishing itself already, right? 00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:58.640 The only thing I would suggest about this would be to have some of the relevant words bolded or highlighted or in a different color because it's good having me because I'm an ADHD. 00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:01.760 So my brain immediately when I see text like this, I just zone out. 00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:03.920 It doesn't matter what it is or who it is. 00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:11.759 Um, and so it's good for me to audit people with this brain because I immediately go, Oh, I'm like the person that's scrolling for hours. 00:02:11.919 --> 00:02:13.039 That's just how my brain is. 00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:17.360 So when I see something, I can easily go, you could improve this by, you know. 00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:18.479 Yeah, it makes sense. 00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:23.439 You could also do so many pieces of content based on this one piece of content. 00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:29.120 Like you don't need to just let this live and die in this one piece now, because there's so much in here that's interesting. 00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:36.400 And every slide, you know, you could have a whole carousel just with these four things, but call it something else and put a hook at the start. 00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:51.280 Or you could do a slide based on this, like a carousel based on this, and have you know five slides, and you could have an interesting hook at the start about you know the your favorite types of businesses that you've worked with, but that's not the hook, that's just the theme, right? 00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:52.000 So good. 00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:52.400 Okay. 00:02:52.560 --> 00:03:02.000 The other thing I would say is for your yeah, call to action, rather than having just heading to the website and the email, because on social media these days, no one will do that. 00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:03.120 Everyone is lazy. 00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:07.840 Everyone is lazy, even LinkedIn bio, most people don't click it anymore. 00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:17.199 So I would have like either a direct call to comment for a free 10-minute call, if that's what you do. 00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:18.719 If you don't do that, that's fine. 00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:32.479 Um, and then basically you're creating the sales process funnel to begin on Instagram instead of having like a big gap between the website and the Instagram, and you're breaking down the the process time to get in clients, if that makes sense. 00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:40.400 So you could do that, or you could do, yeah, or you could do like a freebie that you could give them as like a first step before they work with you or something, you know. 00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:44.639 But I think great content, but you could get a better result from the comments, if that makes sense. 00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:46.319 So this one, what does it say? 00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:48.400 Three packaging mistakes that scare off buyers. 00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:54.800 This is great because this is a perfect example of you're giving them a list, so you're saying three mistakes. 00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:58.159 So people are gonna want to get to the three mistakes on this content. 00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:00.560 That's what we do the number thing for, right? 00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:11.599 And even if you haven't got a lot of comments on this, if you're trying to get more packaging clients, this is the kind of content you could do more of to get more eyes on you. 00:04:11.919 -->
