In this episode of "The Best Coach Ever Podcast," we tackle the hot debate: Should online coaches focus their social media efforts on TikTok or Instagram? We have a no-nonsense discussion of these two powerhouse platforms. Does TikTok have explosive follower growth? Absolutely! But don't be fooled—those followers don't always translate into quality leads. TikTok users are often younger, hungry for entertainment, and not exactly ready to splurge on high-ticket coaching services. Meanwhile, Instagram users are more serious, more engaged, and way more likely to become paying clients.

Next, we don’t hold back on the importance of understanding platform-specific behaviors. On TikTok, it's all about that influencer vibe—think lifestyle and personal branding content. But if you're aiming for direct client acquisition, Instagram's your best bet with targeted marketing strategies that hit the mark. The verdict? You’ll just have to listen! 

Get ready to revamp your social media game with these savvy insights. This episode arms you with the strategies to dominate both platforms, attract top-notch leads, and skyrocket your revenue. Time to level up your coaching business and find your client magnet social media strategy!
