Social media is changing, there’s no getting around that! The pendulum swings, depending on consumer fatigue and algorithm changes. And right now it seems like the “everything is content” trend is Queen!In this episode, I want to share with you what I’m doing with video, B-roll content, and how creating content for Instagram using this approach, can be really, friggin' easy.TAKEAWAYS:It’s easy. Use content from throughout your week. In fact, I will batch videos so I have them done for the month.It’s not wildly popular (algortihm-wise), but gets a lot of good conversations going in the DMs. People engage more in my DMs because they feel more connected to me and I give them a call to action which gives me an opportunity to have a conversation with them.Shows my values, without me having to show up on Stories.Test the content first in Stories, when it gets engagement, then I turn it into a Reel.RESOURCES:To find the blog post that accompanies this episode click hereFollow @shinewithnatasha for Instagram helpCheck out an example of a “everything is content” Reel from Allison’s Instagram accountGrab a $7 trial for your first month in the Funnel of the Month ClubRegister for the Burn Your Launch Calendar and Never Look Back MasterclassCONNECT WITH ALLISON:Follow Allison on InstagramDID YOU HAVE AN 'AH-HA MOMENT' WHILE LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE?If you found value and are ready to take action from listening to this episode, head to Apple Podcasts and help us reach new audiences by giving the podcast a rating and a review.

With Summer Break quickly approaching, you might be wondering how your business is going to look this summer. The benefit of owning your own business is that you can shift and change it to make it work for you. I want to share some tips to help you make your business fit the type of Summer you want. TAKEAWAYS:Be proactive. Look ahead and see what things you can do in your business now so you don’t have to do them this summer. One way that I like to think ahead is to do bulk work. If you have something that you do weekly, maybe there is a way to do batches of work so it’s already ready or scheduled out for the summer.Figure out what the bare minimum is that you need to do to keep your business afloat. When you know your bare minimum, it actually helps you get clear on what things actually need to get done. If possible, invest in outsourcing some tasks. Prepare now by thinking of what types of things you can automate. How can you create your sales on autopilot? For example, maybe instead of doing a live webinar every week, create an automated webinar. RESOURCES:Check out the blog post that goes along with this episode for additional resourcesGrab a spot in the upcoming Sell on Autopilot MasterclassCONNECT WITH ALLISON:Follow Allison on InstagramDID YOU HAVE AN 'AH-HA MOMENT' WHILE LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE?If you found value and are ready to take action from listening to this episode, head to Apple Podcasts and help us reach new audiences by giving the podcast a rating and a review.

Everything works—all the tips, tricks, resources, and tools, as well as platforms like YouTube, TikTok, Pinterest, DMs, Instagram, email marketing, and more!The topic of feeling the pressure to do everything and to be everywhere in your business came up in a panel discussion at the Podcasting Moms Conference I recently spoke about. So in this week's episode I wanted to dig into this topic a bit more, so that you can know where to spend your time in your business.TAKEAWAYS:Get clarity on your goals. When we feel this pressure to do all the things in our business, we are feeling that pressure because we are not super clear on our goal. When you know what your goal is, figuring out how to get there can be done relatively quickly.  Change your mindset and do the internal work on why you have certain goals. There are usually 5 reasons why your perspective is cloudy or that you feel pulled in different directions. I share 5 things that might be clouding your perspective or making you feel pulled in different directions. RESOURCES:Visit the blog post that goes along with this episode for more resourcesDownload The $80,000 Email TemplateCONNECT WITH ALLISON:Follow Allison on InstagramDID YOU HAVE AN 'AH-HA MOMENT' WHILE LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE?If you found value and are ready to take action from listening to this episode, head to Apple Podcasts and help us reach new audiences by giving the podcast a rating and a review.

EP 375 | Keeping it simple featuring Holly Haynes

If you want to sell something in your business every single day, this episode of the 6-Figure Secrets Podcast is for you! I recently found a new Instagram strategy as a result of another strategy failure.I was listening to a podcast from Amy Porterfield in which she interviewed Nicole Burke from @gardenaryco. Nicole shared her Instagram strategy of posting three times a day and the results she was seeing from this work.I wanted to try something new to see if I could increase engagement and see a more direct ROI from my Instagram. I challenged myself to try this strategy for a month and then reevaluate.Over the course of that month, I was only able to post 3 times a day one time.Why?A total systems failure! But because of this failure, I was able to land on a new strategy that I'm sharing in today's episode, which has helped me to produce similar results to what Nicole was sharing! So in this week's 6-Figure Secrets Podcast, I'm walking you through how I landed on this strategy and sharing how you can implement this strategy too.TAKEAWAYS: Learn how to do a pinned post on Instagram. These are posts that sit at the top of your Instagram feed and can help you keep information and offers that you want your followers, or new followers, to see often. I have a link in the resources below to help you learn how to do this.Try Many Chat on Instagram to get more engagement. This has been such an awesome tool that automates engagement! Many Chat is a bot that is set up to where when a follower comments a keyword, and then it automatically DMs a link to the person who commented. The more engagement you get, the more your content is pushed to other people on Instagram. Make it work for you. There are so many different methods and tools out there to help you run your business. But you can’t do them all! It’s ok to try something and not have it work. So when this happens to you, use it an opportunity to try something else. Remember, be ruthless about the goal, but flexible in how you get there.RESOURCES:Visit the blog post that goes along with this episode for more resourcesGrab the Instagram Pinned Post training for only $7Listen to the Amy Porterfield’s podcast, Online Marketing Made Easy, where she interviews Nicole Burke of GardenaryCONNECT WITH ALLISON:Follow Allison on InstagramDID YOU HAVE AN 'AH-HA MOMENT' WHILE LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE?If you found value and are ready to take action from listening to this episode, head to Apple Podcasts and help us reach new audiences by giving the podcast a rating and a review.
