Send us a textHave you ever found yourself following some online trend for your brand, because everyone else is doing it, and you're worried that if you don't, you'll miss out on some new followers or engagement or whatever everyone else is getting from doing it?In this episode, I'm joined again by brand strategist and friend Bec Hughes, and we're chatting all things Fast Content (as she has coined these trends), including the pitfalls, plus the performative nature of trend-driven marketing. We revisit the Barbie AI trend and dissect what it revealed about how brands approach social media visibility, pressure to perform, and the true meaning behind engagement.We explore the ways marketers and creatives can break free from the content hamster wheel by focusing on meaningful brand storytelling and developing a strong, ownable point of view. Bec shares why having a clear brand perspective is one of the most powerful tools in your content strategy, and how it allows you to leverage trends in a smarter, more strategic way.If you've ever felt like you're creating content just to stay relevant, this episode will help you reframe your approach and give you practical tools to start creating with purpose.What We Cover in This Episode:Why fast content rarely converts into actual leadsThe pressure to “be everywhere” on social mediaHow trend-chasing dilutes brand messagingThe illusion of engagement and vanity metricsWhat thoughtful content actually looks likeThe importance of brand perspective and finding your “TED Talk”Ways to critically assess your content before postingKey Takeaways:Posting more doesn't automatically mean more impact.Trendy content may get likes, but that doesn't mean it's working.The most powerful brands are those with a strong, recognisable point of view.Your brand should offer something deeper than just fun or aesthetic value.Resources & Links:Bec Hughes on Instagram: @bechughesbrandingWebsite: www.bechughes.comDOWNLOAD MY CONTENT PLANNER - https://becchappell.com.au/content-planner/Instagram @bec_chappellLinkedIn – Bec Chappell If you're ready to work together, I'm ready to work with you and your team.How to work with me:1.

If selling and promoting your services on social media makes you feel icky and spammy, you're not alone.It's totally normal. We aren't born sales people.But instead of working on the skills of selling and the mindset around selling, I see a lot of people either (1) avoid it totally or (2) secretively sell (aka disguise they're actually trying to sell something)I've been guilty of both.  This is why I've worked so much on my own beliefs around selling. Feeling salesy isn't fun, but running a business without selling is really hard too.

I recently received a beautiful message from a client who said she admires how well I manage my relationship with social media. She added that she loves the “recaps” I do if I've been offline for a while. The truth is, this hasn't always been the case. At times, I've had a pretty unhealthy relationship with my socials and there have been some key mindset and strategic shifts that have had to occur to improve this aspect of my business (and more than halved the time I actually spend on social in the process). In this episode I cover:The #1 belief that changed the way I relate to my business and social mediaHow my undefined centres in human design affect my relationship to social mediaThe strategy shifts I made (and you can, too) that helped me disconnect from socials more and still be able to convert clients (and spoiler - if your business is reliant on social media to make sales then ask yourself whether that is sustainable!)LINKS:Find out more about NeonBuilt For ScaleBuilt for Scale - Get the roadmap to go from 50k to multiple 6-figures (without burning out, breaking your brain or adding even more products or problems to your business)

When you learn about the Instagram algorithm, it can help you get more views... but views don't always translate to sales. So what actually DOES lead to more sales from all the time we spend on social media?
