Epic Traffic Training
I love your teaching style! One question you answered was about products “vs” services needing screening before working with me directly. My most recent “ex” client wanted to work with me after having worked with someone else in the same field. First red flag. I wondered why she didn’t use that person again. Red flag #2- She asked me what my rates were. She had a strong reaction and said she was expecting a much lower rate. I told her that even the brand new service providers in the field charge twice what she wanted to pay and you get what you pay for. I should have stuck to my guns, but I went soft, breaking rule #1 for service providers: serve with your heart, do business with your head. We agreed to terms and I went to work. I sent her my report and invoice. She didn’t like my results and refused to pay anything. I had to write it off. Had I had a link to an application form on my website, I could have avoided the mistake without emotions. I also plan to use the “Learn More “ video strategy- hares and turtles. Thank you, Mariah!

What are your best tips for setting up a social media strategy
I am new to Instagram and Tok Tok - new to making short form content and it is stressing me out. What are some of your best trips and tricks when it comes to a social media strategy? How often do you post? Shorts, Reels, or long for video? Tips? Quotes? How do you manage it all?!

I know a little about both platforms, but I haven’t seen Mariah’s training on them other than the traffic course (awesome, of course). Tik Tok and Instagram are two completely different platforms. Other than being short and the fact you can repurpose content and are both visual, each has its own unique rules. You may find YouTube videos helpful. Instagram has been around since 2012?? Very mature now, very fancy, most people are viewing the reels, even though posts are important. TikTok exploded during Covid. Even so, it has evolved with its own rules. TikTok is interest based. It intuitively feeds you content based on what you tell the algorithm you like. That’s why it’s so popular. Currently, it appears that a 10 second video is long. Shoot for 7 seconds. Put a title at the beginning that runs 2-3 seconds, in yellow bold print. Put a 2-3 thumbnail at the beginning- a highlight, something funny… These may get people to stop scrolling. Viewers are gone in 3 seconds. Your bio is everything. Tell traffic who you are, what the account is about, and a Linktree to your other platforms. That’s all you want to do- get them to your website. Engage with them! Heart every comment, reply to as many comments as possible, answer questions with videos, do lives & duets, and “stitch” other creators’ content to direct traffic. Be yourself. They’ll know.

Also, use sound bytes and video blips of one sentence or punch line of your long form content. I used to write the sentence on an index card and tape it right above my camera and just read it.
Merry Christmas!

What to focus on. Community or Content?
Does anyone have a Skool community? I’ve started a new one and didn’t realize how challenging it would be to have people engage with my posts. They’re going through the course material which is great! But should I be concerned at all that the community is quiet? Should I spend more energy trying to fix this or just spend the energy creating more courses and content?

@Robin Richards I agree with the polls suggestion. They work for me on TikTok. I see people do it all time with simple “this or that” for anything. Answering questions with a short answer video produces more engagement. They really do want to be your raving Swifties, just like we want to feel “seen and supported” here.
Find Your Niche Rave
Mariah, Find Your Niche is so simple, so clear, and so effective, I almost cried with relief at the end. I’ve been providing a valuable service, but being available and on call all the time is exhausting. I needed a change, although I love what I do. I spent this past weekend on Find Your Niche, doing everything exactly as you described. When you told us to probe into our expertise, our training, our ability to say, “Oh, I can help you with that!”, I went to Reddit and Quora to find out what my people were asking for, and not getting any answers. They were making cynical comments about not getting the help they need to do the tasks they are required to do for their jobs. The comments were getting 250 likes and upvotes! I have years of experience and advanced knowledge in that very field. I was them 10 years ago. So thank you. ❤️
