The Simple Content Strategy that Attracts Followers While You Learn

On this episode of Business Breakthroughs with Faith Mariah, I discuss: 

• Don't wait for perfection: Start taking action even if you don't feel completely ready. Every small step adds up over time. Treat your business journey like learning to be a bodybuilder – you wouldn't wait until you have the perfect plan to start going to the gym.
• You don't need to be an expert to help: If you lack experience, position yourself as a student. Share your learning journey, document your progress, and credit your sources. This provides value to your audience and builds your expertise over time.
• Humanize your content: Share your struggles and setbacks alongside your successes. This makes you relatable and builds trust with your audience, especially in the age of AI.
• The best time to start is now: Don't fall into the trap of thinking there will be a better time in the future. You might face unforeseen obstacles down the road.
• Find community support: Building an online business can be a lonely journey. Joining a community like Creator Camp provides encouragement, accountability, and normalization of the challenges you face.

Have you ever felt the urge to make that leap into social media, but found yourself holding back due to perfectionist tendencies? You’re certainly not alone, and today, we’re diving into some impactful insights that will help you get started and gain confidence in sharing your journey online.

The Beauty of Imperfection

A common barrier preventing many from starting their social media journey is the fear of not doing it perfectly. Often, this mindset morphs into a standstill, resulting in missed opportunities for growth and connection. However, I’m here to remind you that the best time to start is always now. Your desire for perfection may convince you to postpone your actions, but taking that first step is where the real magic happens. Just like bodybuilders don't wait for the perfect plan, we shouldn't wait for the 'perfect' moment to jump into entrepreneurship.

From Novice to Expert: Share Your Journey

Another concern is feeling underqualified to help others or present ourselves as experts. Here’s a simple hack: become your first client. Document your personal transformation, share your learning path, and let your audience see the genuine highs and lows. Instead of positioning yourself as an expert, embrace the role of a student. Credit those who inspire you by tagging their work and acknowledging their ideas. You’ll not only produce valuable content but also foster connections and even gain followers from their audience, just like my student who got noticed by Brene Brown. This approach makes your content authentic and relatable, showcasing your growth and helping others in the process.

The Power of Community and Consistency

Business and personal growth are challenging, but they are more manageable with the right support system. Join communities like Creator Camp to access invaluable resources. Being part of a community helps normalize the entrepreneurial journey and provides examples that reinforce persistence and resilience. Community support can transform the daunting task of social media consistency into an exciting challenge. It is easier when you're surrounded by people who are on the same journey, sharing insights and encouragement.

Take the Leap: Start Today

If you’re contemplating when the best time to begin your social media journey is, let me assure you—it's now. Don’t fall for the trick your mind plays about future ease or readiness. Life is unpredictable, and waiting for a more convenient time might mean missing the current opportunity. In conclusion, remember that even the simplest, most obvious insights you share could be impactful to those who are just starting or need encouragement. It's time to provide value today, not tomorrow. By embracing this mindset, you will experience growth in your personal skills and audience reach.
