Question for @Kerry Morrison and others who may or may not use social media to build their copywriting business - how helpful do you think it's been? Is there something that's worked better for you than another, platform or strategy wise? I'd love to get off it all entirely, but I don't think that's wise... especially as some of my parallel competition is on it and going strong, and I build a lot of connections locally which social media seems to help with. Love hearing what others have done!

I said we were going to keep each other accountable. Not particularly effective week for me, have this linger flu that won't go away, and it's slowing me down, but a few things did get done ( and a big one didn't. ). First what I failed on: 1. Record my first video of the year, detailing out my new business idea ( the why and how it begins ) - this did not get done, I just didn't have the energy for it, and I am quite disappointed in that. 2. Actually finish the development work on the new business idea. It's close, but not done, so again, fail. What did get done: 1. Started a Substack: The Business of You and migrated my old Ghost subscribers there. 2. Created a new business page on LinkedIn: The Business of You. 3. Created a new Twitter account ( I don't have high hopes for this ): @abusinessofyou 4. Wrote 3 posts for LinkedIn/Substack and posted them: 3,741 impressions on LinkedIn, 124 on Substack. 5. Wrote a long post for Reddit in r/Entrepreneur - Everyone Has a Business They Can Start…Everyone ( caught some flack ): 284,000 views, 149 comments, 2400 shares ( i'd count this as a win ). 6. Posted 7 notes and four comments on Substack (this is really how you grow) - nowhere near enough. 7. I did write a script (more of an outline) for my video (just didn't film it) 8. Had two glorious video calls with you folks (coffee chat & Q/A) What I wasted time on: 1. Writing and rewriting things like my Substack description, and About Page 2. Writing two posts that were just not valuable to anyone and throwing them out 3. Watching too many videos on writing code in cursor and lovable.dev (instead of just writing code I'm doing this from memory, which I will rectify with better tracking next week, and trying to keep track of the amount of time everything takes so y'all can see the effort going in, not just the results. No one else needs to go into this kind of detail, but let's hear it. Did we have productive weeks? Are we moving towards those Q1 goals?
