It's time to sit down and make a plan for 2026! You might be thinking, "wow, this feels really early?" But truthfully, I think the best way to set yourself up for failure is to wait until the last moment to look ahead. I did this entire process during a travel day filled with delays. I promise, it's not as intense as it sounds! First, I want to reflect on the year you just had. What was your best month? What about your worst? When did you feel like your creative energy was flowing and how was that reflected in your revenue? What were your goals this year? Did you achieve them? After...

Because here's the thing: the average story view rate drops 20% with every tap. So if you want your stories to drive people to your DMs and drive sales, you need to be intentional. Your stories aren't a place to talk at your audience. Instead, you want to chat with them.

info_outlineYour marketing shouldn't be a surprise. Yet, most entrepreneurs wait until it's too late to evaluate what's not working.
As we approach a new quarter, it's the perfect time to reflect on your current marketing strategy and performance. Instead of waiting six months or even a year to assess what's working, successful entrepreneurs use a strategic quarterly review process to identify patterns, make adjustments, and double down on what's generating results.
The key to an effective marketing audit lies in asking the right questions: Has your audience grown? Did you take advantage of visibility opportunities? How did your launches perform? What was your capacity like during implementation?
By examining both the numbers and your experience, you can identify exactly what needs to change - whether it's your content schedule, platform strategy, or overall marketing approach.
In this episode, I break down my exact process for conducting a quarterly marketing audit, including how to analyze past performance, set realistic goals, and create a clear plan for the next 90 days. Whether you're feeling stuck with your current results or looking to build on recent success, you'll learn how to use data and reflection to create a marketing strategy that drives consistent growth.
In today's episode, we're chatting about:
• Why waiting six months to evaluate your marketing is costing you opportunities
• How to identify which marketing activities are actually driving results
• The crucial difference between sales metrics and marketing metrics
• Why your content frequency matters less than your strategic approach
• How to set realistic marketing goals for the next quarter
