i wasnt able to finish these tasks within each day and kind of worked on it for around 3 days. this is bc i had a limit to how many dms i could send the first day, and i also struggled a bit to tailor my feed to match my audience (which i did thru finding more popular creators w similar niche as me, then just following back the people who followed me, and engaging with their content thru stories which got the most replies). once my feed consistently showed ppl that matched the type of clients i was trying to find (preferably with less likes and followers), i simply just left a comment of what i thought (mostly encouraging or asking a question), followed them, then DMed them something i was genuinely curious about. im not gonna lie sending like 20 DMs at once kinda feels like im just liek superficially interacting with them, but im not sure how else to grow my client base yet...
for me creating reels has been more "fun" and feels more fitting for me, so far one reel has hit over 100 likes!!
yesterday i sent like 5 dms and got 3 responses! right now im trying to keep a convo going keeping interest in their glow up journey and what they like and finding the spot where i can help them out.
one person directly asked me if im running a coaching business which i was surprised to receive, and i hope i can get them hooked on a call soon (for day 6)
so far im feeling good but also still fearful of liek putting myself out there (other ppl who might know me from irl)
