🚨 CLIENT ATTRACTION CHALLENGE — DAY 1 IS LIVE 🚨
*apologies for the delay! I had to fly out of state for a family emergency. Day 2 should be posted at the scheduled time.* Today’s focus: 👉 optimizing your profile so it actually attracts clients. Before someone works with you… they check your page. And if your profile is unclear, inconsistent, or doesn’t immediately communicate what you do — you’re losing opportunities before conversations even start. That’s why we’re starting here. Inside today’s lesson, we’re breaking down: - how to audit your profile - what your bio should actually say - how to position yourself clearly - and how to make your profile feel more trustworthy + intentional 📂 Today’s resources include: ✅ DIY Instagram Audit ✅ Profile Optimization Checklist ✅ AI / GPT Prompts for Writing Better Bios 📝 TODAY’S HOMEWORK: 1. Audit your current profile 2. Update your bio/profile using today’s lesson + resources 3. Drop a screenshot of your updated profile in the community 👇

LIVE Postponed! Now Monday, June 29th
I came down with the flu over the weekend and I am not in any shape to show up and give you the quality LIVE you deserve today. I'm so sorry for the last minute notice — I know a lot of you were looking forward to this one and so was I. We're rescheduling to Monday, June 29th at 10AM CST and I promise it will be worth the wait. We're going deep on the full client workflow and I want to be at 100% when we do it. In the meantime — let's get the conversation started early. Drop your answers below 👇 🔄 Do you currently have a client workflow or are you figuring it out as you go? ❓ What's the part of your workflow that feels the most chaotic or unclear right now? 💭 What's one question you want me to answer on the LIVE? I'll be reading every single comment from my couch 🛋️ and it'll help me make sure next Monday's LIVE is exactly what you need. See you on the 29th. 💙

🚨 CLIENT ATTRACTION CHALLENGE — DAY 3 IS LIVE 🚨
Today is where things start getting REAL 👀 We’re officially building the content that potential clients will see when they land on your page. Because here’s the truth: Most people try to pitch clients before they have anything to show. And when someone checks their profile… - there’s no direction - no authority - no proof - no clear messaging …they lose trust immediately. That’s why we’re focusing on this BEFORE outreach. Inside today’s lesson, we’re breaking down the: 👉 3 pinned post framework These are the 3 posts every social media manager should have on their page: 1️⃣ Intro / Authority 2️⃣ Value / Education 3️⃣ Proof / Conversion These posts work together to: - build trust - communicate your value - and help potential clients understand how you can help them Reminder: Your profile should support your outreach. When someone lands on your page, they should quickly understand: - who you are - what you do - and why they should trust you 📝 TODAY’S HOMEWORK: Create + post your FIRST pinned post today 👇 Start with: - Intro / Authority OR - Value / Education Then: ✅ post it ✅ pin it to your profile ✅ drop a screenshot in the community And pleaseeee don’t overthink this. You do NOT need: - perfect branding - a perfect feed - a viral post You need: - clarity - proof - momentum This is the beginning of building real authority online 🚀
