EP 210 - Why Your Post Flopped (And It's Not the Algorithm's Fault)

I'm tackling the number one question I hear from my clients all the time: "Why isn't my post doing well?" Most of the time we want to blame the algorithm, say our audience is disengaged, or convince ourselves our offer isn't good enough. But the real issue? We're reacting emotionally instead of diagnosing our content like strategists.  What I cover in this episode: Why you need to stop treating underperforming posts as personal failure and start getting curious instead The ABC Funnel: every piece of content should either Attract, Build, or Convert — and why assigning one clear purpose to each post changes everything Attract = reach new people. I share a recent post where 70% of the viewers weren't even following me, and why I celebrated that Build = build authority, belief, and connection.  Convert = move someone toward an action (opt-in, DM, podcast listen, sales call) and why conversion doesn't just mean "sales" Why trying to make one post attract AND build AND convert all at once is setting yourself up for disappointment How to audit a post that flopped: reverse engineer the topic, the hook, and the creative Before your next post, ask yourself: is this meant to attract, build, or convert? Then measure it against that goal, not everything at once. Connect with me:  Website Join our email list!
