We’re wrapping up the year with your most-downloaded episodes—the ones that helped you grow smarter, simplify faster, and work less without losing momentum.
Still relying on Instagram to bring in leads? You might be missing out on 65% of your potential clients. In 2025, most buyers start their search on Google—not social media. That means if you’re spending all your time posting and hoping the algorithm works in your favor, you’re leaving money on the table.
In today’s episode, I share:
- Why Instagram alone won’t cut it anymore (Hint: Your content disappears too fast!)
- How to make SEO, Pinterest, and YouTube do the heavy lifting
- How to use AI to streamline your content and get found faster
- Simple tweaks to rank on Google instead of fighting for engagement
