Nicole Thompkins is a Certified Solution-Focused and Accountability Life Coach and is owner/CEO of Total Accountability Life Coaching.

She was born and raised in Washington, DC, attended Florida A&M University for a couple of years and finished her bachelor’s degree in Information Technology from the University of Phoenix where she also received her MBA. While working full-time, she became a rape advocate and survivor coach at the DC Rape Crisis Center.

Coach Nicole blogs and uses her experiences with infertility, divorce, and spiritual awareness to help her clients move through life’s obstacles and put them on the path to achieve their goals and their ultimate life’s purpose. She helps others move towards their purpose, goals and live a more fulfilling and meaningful life by sharing her personal life experiences, trials, tribulations, successes and fails. She noticed that as life happens to people we tend to become less and less accountable to our goals because other things become more “important”. Marriage, raising children, climbing the corporate ladder, career etc. So much so that we lose focus of ourselves, our personal goals, purpose. Whether that is to start a business, lose weight, any form of personal development. It’s also so easy to blame others for our shortcomings and not be accountable for the role that we play in the predicaments we find ourselves in.

Total Accountability Life Coaching works to help people create a vision, formulate goals based on that vision, create a goal attainment action plan, and then create commitment to execute the action plan to build towards their ultimate goal.

In this episode of Go Be Great with Coach Karena, we’re diving deep into why more content doesn't always lead to more engagement or sales, and how being strategic with your content is the key to increasing visibility.

If you're feeling frustrated by posting daily with little to no engagement or struggling to turn followers into paying clients, you’re not alone. Coach Karena breaks down a simple but powerful visibility formula that can help you finally get the attention and results you’ve been working so hard for.

By the end of this episode, you'll know how to position yourself for success, engage with your audience in a way that builds relationships, and create consistent content that truly resonates. Plus, we’ll tackle some of the most common visibility myths that are keeping you stuck!

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

1. The Visibility Formula: A simple 3-part framework for creating content that works:
2. Positioning: Clarify your message so your audience knows exactly what you do.
3. Engagement-Based Content: Move away from broadcasting to engaging in conversations.
4. Consistency Over Volume: Focus on quality over quantity when posting content.

1. Myth 1: "I have to post every day to stay relevant." – False! Consistent, engaging content is what matters, not the quantity.
2. Myth 2: "The algorithm is against me." – The algorithm prioritizes engagement, not frequency.
3. Myth 3: "More followers = more sales." – It's not about numbers; it's about the relationships you build with your audience.

1. What to do when you're posting but not getting engagement.
2. How to know what your audience really wants.
3. Whether you should be on every platform (spoiler: no!).

Resources Mentioned:

1. Free Resource: Grab your Visibility Checklist to help you take immediate action to improve your visibility.
2. Watch More on YouTube: For a deeper look into Coach Karena’s journey and breakthrough moments, check out her video on YouTube.

Key Takeaways:

1. Visibility is about strategy, not hustle: Posting more content won’t help if it’s not strategic. Focus on quality over quantity and create content that sparks engagement.
2. Positioning is everything: Be crystal clear about your message and who you serve. Make it easy for your ideal audience to find you.
3. Engagement is a two-way street: If you want engagement, you need to engage. Respond to comments, DMs, and even engage with your competitors' content.

Next Steps:

1. Take Action: DM me ‘visibility’ and I’ll send you my Visibility Checklist to help you start working smarter, not harder.
2. Share the Episode: If you found this episode helpful, share it with a fellow content creator who needs to hear it!
