The Bad Habits That Are Sabotaging Your Social Media Goals

Does social media feel daunting? Like a chore you just don’t want to do? My kiddo often says he doesn’t want to do things that he knows he SHOULD do because they’re boring. 

I don’t think social media is boring but I do think for many entrepreneurs it can feel like a chore, like they don’t get anything out of it. But with that attitude, of course, you’re going to feel that way.  If you’ve ever felt like your social media growth is stuck, you’re not alone. The reality? Many business owners unintentionally hold themselves back with habits that don’t serve their goals.

So, how can we shift our mindset and strategies to ensure we're showing up consistently and building quality engagement on social media? Tune into this week’s episode to learn about the biggest mistakes I see people make on social media—things like inconsistent posting, ignoring engagement, and chasing viral moments. Plus, I’ll give you simple, realistic ways to shift your strategy so you can actually start seeing results.

Episode Highlights:

• Why consistency is king (and how often you really need to post)
• The engagement mistake that kills your reach (and how to fix it in 10 minutes a day)
• Why going viral isn’t a marketing strategy—and what to focus on instead
• How analytics can make or break your growth (and what metrics actually matter)
