Being Consistent Without the Stress

In this episode, Martine breaks down the essential aspects of successful social media marketing. Whatever you do, being consistent is the most important thing. With your busy life, posting all the time might seem too daunting. That's why Martine stresses that consistency is based on how you define it.

Whatever you decide to do, stick to it. If you want to post a video every Friday afternoon, then that's what you need to do. It's what your audience expects. By being the boss of your schedule, you won't get caught in the trap of feeling that you need to be showing up all day every day.

To be consistent without it taking over your life, Martine wants you to have clear goals. Commit to regularly sitting down and planning your goals. With your long-term and short-term goals established, you can work backward to plan out how your posts will get you there.

Building a Community Around Your Business

We all want to feel a sense of belonging. Being part of a community is something we all value. Martine explains how she centers her business around the community that she built. She explains how gathering the people you want to serve in one place lets you best provide them with what you have to offer.

To build a successful online community, Martine stresses the importance of quality over quantity. It's better to have a smaller number of engaged members than lots of unengaged ones. It's up to you to curate who's in there.

To keep your community engaged, make posts that foster conversations. People like to talk about themselves. Ask them questions that get them responding. This will provide helpful information that you can use to engage with individual members on a deeper level.
