LAUNCH PHASE I POST 4: Social Media Basics
Quote of the Day:
“The only way to have a friend is to be one.”
–Ralph Waldo Emerson
LESSON:
Social media is the biggest way to reach more people in your coaching business. For now, here is what we want to do on your social media page:
- Launch your business. This is your coaching business' Grand Opening month, so make sure people know you're open for business! Post a picture of yourself announcing you're a Team Beachbody Coach and what you do.
- Share your journey. Regardless of your fitness level right now, share pictures of yourself after your workouts, some healthy recipes you're going to try, or pictures of your Shakeology. Sharing your journey will not only increase awareness of you as a Coach, it will increase your followers and open up opportunities for conversations and help you connect with more people.
- Try and post at least three times a day. Share things about your family and other elements of your life that will help others connect and relate with you and not just Beachbody. Include posts that provide value to your followers: recipe ideas, workout tips, and creative ways to manage your time, as that will engage people in positive ways and help you add more followers to expand the reach of your coaching business.
For additional tips on how to get the most out of your social media posts, check out the 8 Social Media Do's and Don'ts. And don't get discouraged if people don't respond right away—they're watching your posts, and every post is another seed you're planting in their mind.
Also, social media is highly visual, so to improve your posts, there are some easy-to-use apps on your phone that will take your pictures to a whole new level. The apps I recommend are: WordSwag, Over, iWatermark, and Snapped.
