selling is flirty: the strategy + tactics behind my FIRST minimind launch ($20K in sales + sold out group program)

The Inspired Media Podcast

11/21/24 • 29 min

DONT BE ALARMED!!! this isn't some "make an extra $10K in 10 minutes" scheme BAHHAHAH no thanks. we talk A TON about a human-first POV to content and the same thing goes with selling. my first big launch of 2024 was a digital course, SOCIAL STAND OUT 2.0, and because of that launch, i hit my highest sales month YET: $60K. we luv a "passive income" moment but WE EXTRA LUV "live-time" collaboration. the YOU-CODED minimind was an offer i've been sitting on for 1 year and i finally brought it to life in 2024 aka THE BEST GIRL GROUP EVERRRRRR <3. something about sales gives slimy car salesmen, not to mention the endless scams online, so in this episode i'm breaking down the strategies + tactics + mental notes i used to:

sell out my first minimind ever on mainly IG stories
launch WITHOUT a formal launch plan or overly "selling on feed"
sell WITHOUT any ads
have the most fun, "light-weight", vibeyyyy launch ever that brought $20K in sales

BUT WAIT...there's MORE! LOL i'm no sales expert BUT i'm linking my episode with Natasha Zork, business mentor and sales queeneeeen, so you can get her expert take on selling without the ick (the perfect step 2 after tuning into this one!)

things i did right to make multi 6-figures in my business as a 20 something

The Inspired Media Podcast

07/17/24 • 28 min

who would've thought a failed wanna be actress would then grow into a social media manager who built a multi 6-figure social media agency, is getting booking out of 1:1's months in advance, booking dream, long-term partnerships, and working with the MOST INSPIRING, AMAZING, IT GIRL ENERGY creators and entrepreneurs (i definitely didn't, but what i did know is: i would be a terrible employee LOL bc i hate when ppl tell me what to do (BIGGG ENNEAGRAM 3 ENERGY), i NEEDED a job where i could be creative, and i wanted to not only make money, but be in control of the money i make.) i could make a WHOLE OTHER EPISODE on the things i did wrong and the things i'm still learning, but for today, i made a list of everything i've done right as a twenty something that is building a business, and now with the goal to make 1/2 a million dollars in 2024. i'm excited for you to tune in and please let me know what you think, if anything shocked you, what really hit with you on IG DM's <3

ways successful creators move differently

The Inspired Media Podcast

06/26/24 • 23 min

it's SUMMER TIMMMEEE aka the time of year where social media slows down, people are on vacations, reach isn't the same, engagement dips, and THIS IS NORMAL, BUT that doesn't mean there's nothing we can do about it and after working with with some super successful creators (yes imma brag about my clients hehehehe), here are the ways they just move differently that make them so successful✨

they got out a FILM (yes even in public): they don't SIT on an idea for too long, they TAKE ACTION
they cut the fluff (uh's, um's, ar's,) it's second nature to them cut that out
they embrace experimentation and LEAN IN even though it can feel uncomfy/they don't know if it's gonna work BUT it also excites them to create new content
they see socials as a PART (yes, a large part), but a PART of their brand, not their end all be all. they have goals OUTSIDE of "getting followers": collabs, starting a business, in-person events, etc.
cringeyness = clarity: they REFINE their content without overwatering themselves down + show up with CONFIDENCE
they're annoying (LOL okay no) but they understand the VALUE is repeating yourself in order to be memorable instead of getting trapped in shiny object syndrome
they create content that aligns with the brands they wanna work with (EVEN IF it's not always gonna get them a ton of views). they make it EASY for brands to come on their page and say "yes she gets it, our brand fits perfectly here".
they outsource out of service to their brand, not shame (working with me, VA's, editor's, etc.). they invest in their brand/their content/their business bc even if they CAN do it all themselves or CAN do some of those tasks, they don't NEED to, and know they will get to where they want to be smoother with support and some they trust!

let me know which one really hit home today by dm'ing me on IG/TT @inspiredmediaco <333

things to LEAVE BEHIND in 2024 (and the MUCH BETTER alternatives) to set your brand up for SUCCESS

The Inspired Media Podcast

01/01/25 • 24 min

say it with me: in 2025 we are ONLY ACCEPTING IT GIRL BEHAVIOR💅. buuuuut we cannot build that up without TAKING OUT THE TRASH so in this episode we’re going through the main social media “practices, habits, tips” (and some lifestyle as well) that DID NOT make the cut on the IT GIRL AGENDA as well as the farrrrr better alternatives🤌✨✨

my verse of the year to you:

Psalm 65:11

11 You crown the year with a bountiful harvest;

even the hard pathways overflow with abundance.

i hope this year is so nourishing, fun, exciting, and progressively challenging for you. 2025 is ours and as always i’m so happy you’re here <3
