Start with one

December 16, 2020

My clients are introverts & sensitive entrepreneurs, just like me. The idea of doing too much at once can lead us into major overwhelm (which, ironically, then leads to us doing nothing at all!)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Nothing causes this more than the thought of showing up on every single social media channel all of the time
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
(I’m tired just reading it!)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And if you feel the same, I have good news…
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You don’t need to
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What you DO need to do (& what I get my clients to do) is start with one. One channel. One type of content.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Get comfortable with it. Get confident. And get consistent
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Once you have that one down like a well oiled machine?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
THEN think about adding something else
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My own visibility strategy includes 5 grid posts per week on Instagram, stories 6 days weekly (including video), posting & engagement in numerous Facebook Groups, a weekly podcast, a weekly newsletter, being a guest on podcasts, & running my own Facebook Group which includes hosting free co-working & group coaching
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you had told me this at the end of July, when I started showing up consistently by committing to just 4 Instagram grid posts per week (which felt like a LOT to me) I would have been running VERY quickly the other way…
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But because I solidified each part & built up slowly, the above is my new normal & I promise you it feels EASY
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So if you’re feeling overwhelmed or like you can’t be everywhere at once, take a step back & think: What can I commit to doing consistently from today onwards?
