If your social media gets likes but not consults, this episode is for you. Sylvia Garibaldi explains why influencer-style content often falls flat in high-stakes professional services—and what actually builds trust when people are deciding who to hire.

This episode offers a clear, practical way to rethink your content so it supports real decisions, real referrals, and real growth.
