In this episode, I explore why audience growth is the lifeblood of scalable success. I illustrate this with the remarkable example of Alex Hormozi—whose “$100 M Money Models” launch drew over 1 million registrants and delivered tens of millions in revenue. From there, I introduce three powerful strategies—collaborations, summits, and bundles—and share actionable insights and real‑world examples to help you expand your impact quickly. Throughout the episode, my message is clear: you must be intentional and proactive in building your audience. By embracing strategic collaborations, leveraging the concentrated exposure of summits, and crafting high-value bundles, you'll put yourself in a strong position to grow purposefully and sustainably. Key Takeaways from the Episode Why Audience Growth Matters A substantial and engaged audience is the foundation for launching high-impact projects and scaling business revenue (e.g., Alex Hermozi's $100M launch). Strategy 1: Collaborations & Partnerships Join forces with complementary creators or businesses to tap into new audiences. Cross-promotion grows reach while lending authority. Partnering allows shared resources, content co-creation, and collaborative momentum. Strategy 2: Hosting & Joining Summits Summits provide concentrated exposure to highly engaged communities. Being a presenter or participant increases credibility and positions you as a thought leader. Offers opportunities for deeper engagement, follow-up funnels, and content repurposing. Strategy 3: Bundles Bundling courses, products, or services creates compelling offers that attract broader audiences. Strategic bundling enhances perceived value and promotes cross-selling. Bundles can also be promotional partnerships—pairing your offer with others for mutual growth. Overarching Principles Be strategic: Choose collaborations, summits, and bundles that align with your brand and audience. Be proactive: Don't wait for ideal partners—reach out, propose, and create opportunities. Be intentional: Plan each growth strategy with clear goals and execution pathways. If you enjoyed this episode then please feel free to go and share it on your social media or head over to Apple podcasts or Spotify and give me a review, I would be so very grateful.

If you've ever wanted to show up on Instagram but found yourself paralyzed by “what should I post today?”, you are not alone. Even seasoned creators get stuck in overthinking, comparison, or falling out of rhythm.You'll learn how to differentiate between internal intentions (like practicing being on camera, finding your voice, or building the habit of consistency) and external intentions (like growing your waitlist, deepening connections, or driving sales). Once you know what you want your content to do for you, posting becomes easier, measurable, and way less stressful.What You'll Learn in This Episode[04:48] The most common struggle creators face: “I don't know what to post.”[05:46] Why falling out of rhythm makes posting 10x harder (and how to reset)[06:44] The trap of overconsumption and comparison that kills creativity[07:44] The big truth: clarity doesn't come before action—it comes from doing[08:42] Why unclear intentions keep you spinning in circles[09:57] The difference between internal intentions vs. external intentions[13:18] Real examples of external goals (like building a waitlist or growing your email list)[15:32] A Hot Reels client story: why knowing your goal is everything[16:31] How to ask “what is my intention here?” before creating content[16:58] Why practicing, even if messy, is still successKey TakeawaysClarity doesn't come before action—clarity comes from doing.Without clear intentions, you can't measure success. Likes and views alone don't tell the whole story.Internal intentions (practice, building consistency, finding your voice) are just as valid as external intentions (sales, sign-ups, growth).Falling out of rhythm makes it harder to get started again—commit to showing up consistently.Resource mentioned:Get the Free Instagram Visibility Jumpstart Kit:CONNECT WITH YOUR HOST, ELIZABETH MARBERRY:WORK WITH ELIZABETH Apply for your FREE Instagram Breakthrough Session with Elizabeth Free guide to Monetize Your IG: Seven Simple and Proven Ways to Finally Make Money on Instagram Follow Elizabeth Marberry on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook Please be sure to rate, review and follow the show on Apple podcasts (or wherever you find your podcasts) so we can get this free value to other people who need it.

If you want to grow on Instagram or TikTok, your content has to be shareable, and that starts with better storytelling. Today I'm sitting down with Britney Crossan, queen of scroll-stopping, story-first content. Britney grew her following by over 57,000 people in less than a year using the exact storytelling techniques we talk about in this episode.We break down how to structure your short-form videos, what kinds of stories hook people immediately, how to move past perfectionism, and the #1 shift that makes content more likely to be saved and shared.If you've ever felt stuck staring at the “Add Caption” screen or wondering why your video isn't landing, this one's for you.What You'll Learn:[02:23] The surprising way Britney grew her account by over 57K followers in under a year [05:08] Why storytelling is the missing link for most short-form content [06:19] How to come up with story-driven content even if you think your life is boring [08:31] Britney's 3-part storytelling formula that hooks people instantly [10:44] A common myth that's keeping you from sharing personal stories [12:06] The mindset shift that changed how Britney showed up online [14:18] Why your content needs to connect emotionally, not just educate [17:05] Tips for creating consistently, even when you feel like you've “run out” of stories [20:20] The difference between a personal brand and just “being online a lot” [23:34] What Britney does when a post flops [25:57] Why storytelling builds trust faster than educational posts alone [29:14] How to batch storytelling content so it doesn't take over your lifeKey Takeaways:Your content isn't boring, your storytelling just needs structure. Use Britney's 3-part framework to shape your stories: start with the moment of tension, reflect back, and end with a human truth or learning.You don't need a dramatic story to be memorable. The “small” stuff like feeling awkward on a Zoom call or forgetting to hit record can connect deeply when shared authentically.Storytelling content builds emotional connection faster than educational content. People might forget your tips, but they'll remember your stories.The most shareable content is usually the most specific. Don't water down your stories, lean in. The more detailed and emotionally resonant, the more people will share.Batching storytelling content is possible (and freeing).Use prompts, keep a story bank, and repurpose stories across platforms with slight tweaks.Links + Resources Mentioned:Get on the Social Success 2026 waitlistGrab this free download, 7 Values of Social Media for Business OwnersCONNECT WITH YOUR HOST, ELIZABETH MARBERRY:WORK WITH ELIZABETH Apply for your FREE Instagram Breakthrough Session with Elizabeth Free guide to Monetize Your IG: Seven Simple and Proven Ways to Finally Make Money on Instagram Follow Elizabeth Marberry on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook Please be sure to rate, review and follow the show on Apple podcasts (or wherever you find your podcasts) so we can get this free value to other people who need it.

Today I'm calling out the single biggest mistake that's keeping your Instagram stuck: treating your account like a glossy portfolio instead of starting real conversations. I know this mistake well because I made it, too.Once I shifted my content to speak in the language of my dream client, everything changed, my reels popped off, my audience grew fast, and my content finally converted into leads and sales.What You'll Learn: [05:11] The #1 mistake that keeps your feed looking pretty but keeps engagement low [07:08] How to flip your mindset: speak in their language, not yours [08:03] Real example of a viral reel built around your ideal client's emotional reality [09:59] Why good content is always rooted in empathy (and how to do it) [10:28] The messaging bridge: connecting their struggles to your solution [11:56] The simple equation: relatable content → more shares → more visibility → more sales [12:24] Why content that meets people where they are beats promotional graphics every time [13:22] How real Hot Reels students used this shift to explode their following & revenue [14:12] How to join the Hot Reels waitlist (and why you want to get in early)Key Takeaways:Instagram isn't a portfolio, it's a conversation.

When your content mirrors their struggles, they feel seen and they'll stick around.Relatable, empathetic content gets shared. Shares boost visibility, which leads to followers and sales.Good messaging is the bridge between what your audience wants and what you offer. Build that bridge clearly.You don't need perfection, you need connection.Links + Resources Mentioned:Join the Hot Reels waitlist for early access & bonuses: DM HOT or visit ElizabethMarberry.com/hotCONNECT WITH YOUR HOST, ELIZABETH MARBERRY:WORK WITH ELIZABETH Apply for your FREE Instagram Breakthrough Session with Elizabeth Free guide to Monetize Your IG: Seven Simple and Proven Ways to Finally Make Money on Instagram Follow Elizabeth Marberry on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook Please be sure to rate, review and follow the show on Apple podcasts (or wherever you find your podcasts) so we can get this free value to other people who need it.
