4 tips for growing + monetizing your social media.

1 year ago, my client, Magdalena had 0 followers, 0 clients.

She had burnout from her corporate 9-to-5.

She just wanted to live a life of freedom and make money doing what she loved:

Holistic health coaching.

I knew she had huge potential, but we faced challenges:

  • She was starting with 0 LinkedIn followers.

  • She had just started her coaching business.

  • She was getting over burnout from her 9-to-5.

There was even a moment she considered quitting holistic coaching and becoming a ghostwriter…

But I told her "No, let's stay consistent with your coaching."

She trusted me and we tackled each challenge head on.

Here are the 4 things I helped her with to grow her following and attract clients:

Profile

A bad profile = Bad follower and client conversions.

So we started by optimizing her profile.

  1. Clear photo of her face.

  2. Calls out her target audience

  3. Solve pain and shows benefit.

  4. Showcases social proof.

  5. Call-to-action to free lead magnet.

  6. Professional-looking banner.

Content

Next, Magdalena needed people to know she existed.

So we had her:

  • Post 3-5x per week.

  • Get clear on her target audience's pain points + desires.

  • Create stories + actionable posts that spoke to those pains and desires.

Hooks

The first 2 lines of your post need to capture attention immediately.

Bad hooks = Bad impressions.

So we got her to use hooks that called out big pain points of her target audience.

This worked well because people pay attention to content that solve their problems

Leads

Within 3 months of working together, Magdalena was at 4000+ followers, but we needed to convert them to clients.

So we leaned into building her authority by:

  • Creating case studies of clients she helped in the past.

  • Doubling down on free workshops and lead magnets.

  • Sharing stories on how she overcame pain points her audience struggles with.

Since working together?

Magdalena has:

  • Quit her stressful 9-to-5.

  • Landed multiple $3K+ clients.

  • More LinkedIn followers than me (80,491)

Magdalena kicked ass because she showed up to every call, asked questions, and acted on our feedback.

Now she plans on moving to Bali and living life on her terms.

Hope this sparks some inspiration in y’all.

See ya around.
