Here’s the 4-piece stack I recommend: 1) ATTRACT - 2 evergreen hooks you can post anytime - 1 weekly social proof post (testimonial or behind-the-scenes) 2) CAPTURE - Comment keyword → auto DM → email opt-in (manychat is a great tool to use for this automation - you can use my affiliate link at no extra cost to you to get yourself set up) 3) NURTURE - A short 5-email “warm up” sequence - 2 story posts per week (FAQs, price myths, travel tips) 4) CONVERT - One simple booking page - 2 friendly CTA DMs (book a call / reserve a spot) Where are you at in this process?

...is waiting until they ‘feel ready.’ Truth: you’ll never feel ready. Action creates clarity. What’s one small step you could take today?

Ever wonder why some people’s posts instantly get comments, shares, and DMs… while others just fall flat? It’s not luck — it’s a structure. Here’s the simple 3-step formula you can steal for your travel biz posts: 1️⃣ Hook Start with something that grabs attention in the first 3 seconds. Examples: ✨ “Did you know you can travel for free if you bring 10 friends with you?” ✨ “Here’s why most new travel businesses fail in their first year…” 2️⃣ Value Give them a quick insight, tip, or resource they can use. Something that helps them right now. Ex: Break down one simple way to price a tour, or share a secret for finding your first clients. 3️⃣ CTA (Call-to-Action) Tell them exactly what to do next. Ex: “Drop a 🌍 if you’d love to lead your own group trip someday” or “DM me the word ‘TRAVEL’ and I’ll send you my free starter guide.” -------------- Let me know in the comments how you might revamp this to your own posts and business. ( See what I did there? Notice how this very post followed the same exact formula: Hook → Value → CTA?)

Most new travel businesses fail for one reason: 👉 They stay in the “planning” stage forever. They tweak their logo. They change their colors. They redo their bio 12 times. But they never talk to a single potential traveler. I did this for ages! I think it was a stalling tactic out of fear of launching and getting crickets. But once I finally said okay just do it, start and tweak later, I got my first client within a couple days! I posted, and someone replied to me on Facebook and asked about Jordan, We planned something amazing and custom to her and she booked! It was my first $600 but it felt like $6 million. It was so exciting and definitely a confidence booster. After that it grew into something magical. Your business grows through conversations — not Canva. Most of my business actually comes from conversations in Social Media, connecting with people and really hearing what they need then providing that for them. Sure, aesthetic matters, BUT... They dont care what the colour of your title on your website is more than they care about the confidence in who they book with based on the conversation they have with you and the experience they know they will get. This is also how you learn. Learn what people really want or need and how to meet that need. What’s ONE thing you’ve been “planning” but not acting on?
