Can we talk about AI flyers for a second? 🫣 They're popping up everywhere right now. I run a 17 000 person Events group on Facebook and every 2nd post is an AI flyer. Dance groups, churches, community events all using these types of flyers, packed woth information. Here's the part worth knowing before you jump on the trend. All that text baked into the image? Search engines can't read it. AI search tools can't read it. And honestly, most people scrolling past can't either, they just skim right over it. Your social media isn't a flyer board. It's where people come to know, like, and trust a bookkeeper, accountant, or tax pro, not to get advertised at. If every post looks like a flyer, it gets scrolled past just like one. Have you seen these AI flyers showing up in your feed too? What are your thoughts on them?

Living photo carousels are getting serious traction right now. The concept is simple: mix short video clips with your still images instead of posting all photos. But here's what makes them work: the video needs to be lazy. Camera still. Just a little movement in the frame. Think a candle flickering, steam rising, leaves moving. Enough to feel alive, not enough to steal focus from what you're actually saying. Too much motion = your audience watches the clip and skips the copy. The sweet spot: one or two low-movement clips mixed with stills. Motion as a hook, not the main event. Worth testing on your next carousel. Are you already using video in your carousels, or is this new territory? ⚡

I want to get something straight before I keep sharing resources in here. Where are you actually showing up online? List your platforms 1 to however many. Starting with the one you're most active on, ending with the one you check once a month and feel vaguely guilty about. 😄 I'm pulling this together so what I bring into this community lands where it's actually relevant for you. No point in me going deep on Instagram strategies if most of you are building on LinkedIn or vice versa. List yours below!

Can we talk about this Instagram update for a second? They just added a teleprompter inside the main Reels camera. You type your script, it scrolls while you record. Which means if your like me you can finally stop doing 20 takes just to sound coherent. You're not a professional broadcaster. You're a business owner with a message to share. Tools that make it easier to show up? Those matter. This one's worth knowing about. Who's going to try it out?👋

Meta defaults you to algorithmic feeds, but here's the thing: both Facebook and Instagram have chronological feed options that show fewer ads and zero suggested content. On Instagram, tap the word "Instagram" at the top of your screen. You'll see a dropdown menu: hit "Following." You're now seeing posts from people you actually follow, ordered by when they were posted. Minutes ago, not weeks. On Facebook, tap your profile picture in the bottom right corner. Same deal: you'll get options for which feed to view. Pick the chronological one and you're back to real-time content. This is where I do my actual engagement. 10 minutes a day on each platform, then I'm done. Everything else is noise. The chronological feed keeps it simple and honest. **click on each photo for where to find the Chronological feeds.
