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.
