Follow This Simple Advice To Get Ahead Of 99% Of Makers Growing An Audience On Social Media
How to get ahead of 99% of people:
Stop watching videos telling you how to get ahead of 99% of people.
Start doing the things you know you should be doing instead.
And if you’re trying to grow a Maker audience on social media, here’s what you should be doing:
Narrow your niche. The more narrow your niche, the more someone in it will immediately know your content is for them.
Pick your primary platform. You can have others as secondary, but put 80% of your focus into your primary.
Establish your posting frequency. Whether it’s once per day, per week, or per month, pick a frequency that is achievable with your schedule (which leads to…).
Post consistently. However few or many times you choose to post, stick to it no matter what.
Forget perfection. It doesn’t exist anyway and you’ll learn more by doing than by trying to make it perfect.
Create your system. As James Clear said in Atomic Habits, “You don’t rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your systems.”
Just do it. The best thing you can do is just get to it and start putting content out there in the next 24 hours (not next week when you “have more information” or “have everything in place).
These are all simple and straightforward.
The trick is to stop looking for quick hacks, and instead start putting in the reps.
