Turning your Instagram Story DM's "OFF"

Welcome to this video blog post! 

The video is only 12-minutes long but and below you'll find the biggest takeaways.

(However, I highly recommend making yourself a lunch or nice beverage while you listen to the video 😃)

Problems I was experiencing

• Toxic thinking and behaviors from autopilot social media responses
• Getting through a high-stress month due to family, traveling, home maintenance, birthday plans, etc. 
• Struggling with balancing my direct messages with other notifications
• Thinking about client touch points that matter versus touch points don't matter
• Worrying that my high engaging content was not converting into sales effectively enough
• Having "fans" hinders productivity 

 And then *click*… I turned my DMs and IG notifications off, and that's when the magic started to happen. Immediate value was added into my life since making this decision:

• I got out of the being in the day-to-day of everyone's marketing streams/cycles
• I stopped having "fear driven ideas" (ideas that come from me reacting to something I saw on social media.) Instead, my ideas came from my clear head. 
• I started creating for myself versus creating for the potential reaction of "the audience"
• I was having way less conversations and initiating less conversations.
• My clients valued touch points in their designated container 
  • It is OK to not keep up individual events, but be present in their process. 
• I knew better on the things I needed to act on had the time to take that action
• I was watching my engagement went UP. My "fans" (that sounds weird saying but you know what I mean) went to my public posts to engage with me 

I also talk a little about using Instagram Reels & momentum to go viral as well as not allowing for discouragement to affect your desire to grow and expand your brand/business.
