And good morning, good morning.
Today if you're watching this live is Saturday and it is day six of the challenge.
So woohoo, congratulations.
You've made it this far.
Some of you have been doing it consistently every day.
And do you know what that means?
That means that you have started.
You've got six days toward a brand new habit.
I've been saying all along, consistency creates, can you fill in the blank?
Consistency creates, can you fill it in?
Consistency creates momentum, momentum.
You know, it's like a snowball going down the hill, right?
And that consistency going, going, going, it gets going faster, faster, faster, starts
attracting more and more and more people.
Consistency creates momentum.
So we're on day six, congratulations.
Welcome, Earlene, I see you just joined.
Welcome, so excited.
I have just loved, loved the way that you have stretched yourself out of your comfort
zone.
Congratulations on that.
I love the way you've been consistent.
I love the way you're trying new things, bold new things.
So I want to personally congratulate you.
I'm having so much fun with this challenge, loving on you guys so much, seeing you guys
love on each other.
Don't want it to stop.
Don't be surprised, I might add a bonus day, that's what God's putting on my heart, might
add a bonus day or two.
Having so much fun with you guys.
So good morning, good morning, good morning.
All right, I am going to start us in prayer.
Today we're going to be talking about 15 ways, 15 ideas for your social media posts,
for connecting, for creating engagement.
Remember when we talked about Facebook, it's about engagement.
That's what Facebook's looking at and it's looking for quick engagement.
So you want to, when you post and you get engagement, you want to respond right back
and you want to get that conversation going.
That's why you want to be using open-ended questions and ways of getting the engagement,
the connecting, all right?
So I'm going to start us with prayer and hopefully you got some great, great value in the previous
days.
I know yesterday it was probably like drinking from a waterfall when I gave you all the ideas
for repurposing content.
But remember, I'm not asking you to do all of those right away.
You'll grow into them.
You can add one, you know, each week, each month, you just keep adding more and new ways.
You don't have to do it all at once.
My point of sharing it though was that it would open your mind to realize don't post
or write something that can only be used once.
Think about all the possible ways to share it.
So we're going to keep that conversation going today.
First I'm going to pray and then we'll jump right in.
Okay?
Father God, I thank you for every, okay.
Father God, I thank you for every person on this call, both live and recorded.
I thank you for the way that they have showed up with a desire to let you show out and show
through.
Father God, I pray you just fill them so full that they can't help but gush out everywhere
they go with your love, with your power, with your joy.
When everybody else is walking in fear, when everybody's walking in confusion, let them
be voices of hope.
Let them be voices of love.
Let them be voices of direction, Father God.
So I ask that you bless the effort that they have taken to show up every single morning.
Bless the effort that they have stretched out of their comfort zone.
Father God, I pray that you will multiply the results.
I pray that you will draw, even right now, at the sound of my voice from the north and
the south and the east and the west, I pray you will draw the men and women and children
that they are called to serve.
I pray for exponential growth.
I pray for an anointing of exponential growth that it'll not be addition, but it'll be multiplication.
I thank you, Lord. You're putting that on my heart. Thank you, Lord. Not addition.
I pray you'll change their mindset to be open to receive it, that it'll no longer be addition.
It'll be multiplication. Multiply their efforts, Father God. Multiply their results, Father God.
Multiply their resources. Multiply their connections. Multiply their joy. Multiply
their peace. Multiplication, Father God. Thank you for that word for today. We touch, we agree,
and we celebrate multiplication. In Jesus' name, amen. Well, that was a download. I wasn't
expecting that. I love it when we start praying and God shows up. So he's telling you,
open your mind to think big. Remember, expectation is huge. When you post faith,
you release your faith, and you have an attitude of expectation. You expect God to move. You expect
people to come. You expect divine appointments. You expect divine connections. And let me tell
you my experience of many years of just a wild Holy Spirit ride. I have learned that when we
show up, which is what this challenge is about, right, showing up and allowing God to show through,
it's often not what you think it is. God's going to take your seed, and he's going to multiply it.
He's going to grow it in ways that you do not expect. You know, just real life story. A couple
days ago, I was asked to speak for a fellowship chamber. I had a wonderful time going there,
but it was, you know, my first time out speaking to a group in a long time. And of course, they
were, you know, practicing safety and everything. But I just frankly, you know, haven't done that,
and a lot of people weren't ready. So I'll tell you that the crowd was small,
but it was mighty, and it was powerful. But things aren't always what you expect,
because what happened in being there, it was in a different location because of COVID. The
hotels weren't open, and so it was in a business. And being in this business, I met after the talk,
the owner of the building, a mighty man of God, a kingdom-minded man and woman of God that owned
that building. There was a connection. This is what we're talking about in this whole challenge,
right? It's about divine appointments and connection. So afterwards, this divine appointment,
I think I'm going just to speak at fellowship chamber. God reveals, no, it's more. It's more.
And so this connection with this man and woman that own this building, and they have a multi-million
dollar kingdom business, kingdom mindset, okay? Like attracts like. And so took me on a tour of
the whole facility, huge warehouse, manufacturing downstairs, and the Holy Spirit put on my mind,
Cindy. Those of you have met her on this challenge, right? And how her business is expanding after
coaching with me and the huge things that she's up to. So I said, Cindy ought to take a look at this.
Yesterday, Cindy went and met with them. I've yet to hear what happened. What's my point? It's not
just what appears on the surface. When you're doing a post and a few people respond, it may be
for those people, but you don't know what God's going to do through them. You do not know the
levels of connection, the doors that will open if you faithfully show up. You just don't know.
I remember when God asked us to send our nutritional product when I was founder of a
nutrition company, and he asked us to send it to some orphans in Tanzania. There was an orphanage,
the kids were dying of AIDS, the workers were dying of AIDS, and so we sent our immune system
product over there, and we donated to them every month. Well, the missionary who visited it there
was the one that told them about our product and our prime, and there was such amazing results.
God did so many miracles when he came back from being a missionary. He said, I want to be part of
what you're doing, this God move. As a result, there were so many miracles. We were praying and we said,
is there someone that can write? Do you know an author that could write?
all these miracles. And he said, well, my cousin is a many times New York Times best-selling author.
I could reach out to him. That led to a divine appointment, amazing divine appointment,
all right, which led to another divine appointment. He says, you know, I oversee many
churches. I'm a pastor to pastors. I want you to speak in this church, huge church in Atlanta,
Georgia. So my point is connections lead to connections, lead to connections, lead to
connection. That's not your job. That's God's job. He's in the business of divine appointments.
Your job is showing up. And that's what this challenge is about, showing up consistently,
even when you feel afraid, you do it. Even when you're, you know, self-judging and criticizing
yourself, you show up because you don't know how God's going to show through and who he's going
to touch and who that person is going to touch, what doors are going to open, what divine
appointments. So that word is for one of you listening, I know, because that was not in my
plans. God told me to share that. So just keep showing up, letting God show through. All right,
today I want to talk to you, 15 ideas. And by the way, thank you for your questions. Tomorrow,
make sure you're on 830 in the morning. Tomorrow, I'm going to be answering questions. Okay. So
there's still time for you to put your questions. You'll see where I gave a spot. It's written in
purple. It says, you know, put your questions. What do you want to know? So in that thread,
put your questions. So they're all in one place. I will be answering Q and A tomorrow,
and then I'm planning on a bonus day. So just stick around. I got some exciting things that
God is downloading. All right. Today, one of the questions that comes up is, what do I post?
You know, where do I come up? If I'm going to be consistently posting things all the time and
different things, what do I post? What do I make videos about? What do I talk about?
Okay. So I'm going to give you a starting point. And so this is 15 ideas.
One of my favorite quotes is, coincidence is a miracle in which God chooses to remain anonymous.
Me too, Ada. I love that quote. I love that quote. There are no coincidences. That's just where God
chooses to remain anonymous. Thank you for sharing that. That's awesome. Thank you for sharing that.
Okay. And that's a good quote to post. All right. So what are we going to make videos about? What
are we going to post? What are we going to talk about? Let me give you some ideas. And of course,
this will be your starting point. Combine that with yesterday, what I taught about repurposing,
you're going to have tons of content. And remember, you can do it in groups and schedule it
out. You don't have to show up every day to be posting every day. You schedule it. Okay. Facebook
has a scheduler. They all have a scheduler. Okay. Used to be you had to use another program to do
that. But now you can just do it right there. Okay. So first thing, the very best thing you
can share is personal stories or stories of people that you know. I'd like you to think about it. It's
interesting that God did this. This is God's timing. I did not plan this. I couldn't plan it
this good. This is just God's brilliance. Did you notice that I started with some stories?
And did you know how that holds your attention? So kind of feel that you wanted to know what
happened in the story. At least, I don't know, put yes. Is that true? I know when I hear stories,
sometimes I'm at the edge of my chair. I want to know what did God do? What happened? You know,
especially if you give it a little bit of curiosity and time to see where it goes.
So, you know, for those of you in sales, there's an old quote that says facts tell,
stories sell. Okay. Because people love stories. Jesus was a master storyteller. Okay. You want
to become a master storyteller. In fact, you want to keep a list. Okay. You guys are saying yes.
Yes. So you want to keep a list even of things that you could, you could tell a story about.
And I like to keep that where I can refer to when I get ready. Okay. To be able to write.
All right. So sharing stories is always a good post. Always a good video. All right. It's the
most engaging to read, to watch. And if you're sharing something that people can relate to,
if you're sharing a struggle or you're sharing a journey, if you're sharing how you're overcoming
or you're working through, or you're starting something new and people can relate to it,
you're going to get a lot of comments. You're going to get a lot of me too, or I know what you,
what you mean.
happened to me too. People love to connect with you that way. So number one
of 15 ideas for videos and posts, share a story, share your experience. Now right
along with sharing that experience, one of the best experiences is if you can
give people a glimpse into your life or if you can give people a glimpse into a
behind-the-scenes. What happens behind the scenes, okay? Or even how you're doing
something, all right? So what would be an example? My son has started a design
business for clothing. He's got a clothing line and he's been picking
up equipment, manufacturing equipment that he's using. And so you know he's
starting just from the ground and how many businesses have you seen? Including
something like Mary Kay, you know, or Creative Memories that started in a
kitchen table, started in a garage, started in a basement, you know. My father
made millions but I watched him start like that. So you can show your humble
beginnings. You do not have to start in a, you know, high-rising Madison Avenue.
Actually people can't relate to that. They love the underdog. They love seeing
that you're starting from a humble beginning. So you know I've continuously
told my son, hey get pictures of this, get behind the scenes, show excitement,
opening the boxes, showing the equipment when it arrives, showing you know what
you produce first, you know, showing the humble beginnings. It's gonna be
phenomenal as you grow. You have a one-year anniversary. You go back and you
go look how far we've come in a year. So you know if you're starting a business,
you're starting a venture, that's always fun. But it can be anything. It can be
teaching. So I'm teaching you right now. I'm sitting in my office. I'm actually
sitting in my comfortable chair here today and I could do, I could do a
behind-the-scenes, right? And I could turn the camera around and I could talk
about the lighting that I'm using. I've got this ring light that is holding the
camera. I've also got another lighting so that I have front lighting for videos
like I've taught you. So I could show you things that I'm doing and talking about
it. That would be a how-to and a behind the scenes, okay? If you're doing an event,
you know, show the preparation before. If you're having a photo shoot, you know,
don't just show the photos after they're all taken and doctored up. Show setting
up. Show the, you know, when I was building up for Women Like Me. I went to
the spot. I showed behind the scenes when it was being set up. What was happening?
What were we doing to get ready, okay? So sharing your experience, sharing a
behind-the-scenes glimpse into your life, your business, your venture. People love
backstories. They'll keep coming back to see your progress too. If you let them
know, I'm gonna keep you posted on my journey. I'll let you know how it goes.
Maybe you're celebrating your first sale, your first, you know, thousand dollar sale,
ten thousand dollar, whatever. It's a, and it's a wonderful archive for later. You'll
be able to build something really fun as you grow. When I first started our
nutritional network marketing, international network marketing business,
you know, it was a great story. We saved it. It was a collector's item. You know,
the boxes, we just bought plain white boxes. We didn't have printed boxes with
fancy logos, you know. The products came from the manufacturer. We were putting
the labels on it, you know. I made the brochures. I wrote all the brochures and
printed it on a card stock that I bought from Paper Direct. You know, this
went on to be a multi-million dollar company, but you show the humble
beginnings. People love that, right? So don't forget, do not get caught in the
trap of thinking you can only show things that are good or only things
after you arrive. Actually, people relate less to that. Those of you that are in
sales, they'll often relate more to your journey as you're growing than after
you've arrived. You know, in my 20s, I was in direct selling, network marketing, and
it's fascinating. You know, when I first started, I got my first check was like
$36. Okay, watch this how this works. Involving people in your journey. So I
got a check for $36 and I actually framed it. I was doing home
presentations, right? I'm 20-something years old and I, you know, I'm selling a
nutritional product in direct selling. I framed it and I had people look at it
and I said, I want you to watch because I'm gonna, there's gonna be three zeros
added to this.
So I'm creating expectation and excitement. I'm celebrating. You know the
Bible says despise not the small things. I'm celebrating. How many people would
just cash a $36 check and not think about it? I framed it and guess what the
next one was $254. I framed them side by side. I said if we keep multiplying at
this level and I had everybody you know feel part of it. Look what we've done.
And of course it went up and you know the next one was $828 but the people got
to be with the journey and at $800 at $1,200 when I was making $2,200 a month
people really related to me and something interesting happened around
$3,000 $5,000 when I started making $5,000 a month people of course you know
we're going back 30 years okay but people distinguished and started
separating like people do in their mind and go oh that's her I could never do
that and less people were responding to me. You had some people that were excited
they wanted to make that much but relatability and connectedness there
started to be a distinction in the mind. By the time I was making $10,000 a month
$12,000 a month $15,000 a month people were starting to make excuses in their
mind oh you can do this because I could never do it I I don't have this I don't
have that I have you know so it's interesting so allowing people right now
those of you that are getting started in your business people they love the
underdog they want to connect they want to see you succeed they want to do the
journey with you so number one share your experience number two share
behind-the-scenes glimpse into your life business or venture number three post a
selfie people love selfies okay it's another way of giving a glimpse into
your life what exciting adventure are you on what struggle are you facing did
you just plant a garden are you starting an exercise program are you learning to
cook vegan are you you know share your experience with some selfies and some
pics all right number four share something you're reading or learning you
know hopefully you're on a quest to continuously grow and learn talk about
that share what you're learning okay um whatever you're reading what you're
trying new as a result that's awesome okay and we can learn best by teaching
so very often if I'm reading a good book I'll share an excerpt or a quote number
four another great way for content number five a movie or a television
series you know well we're home right now a lot of people watching different
series and often a movie or a series that I'm watching gives me inspiration
for newsletters for blog posts for quotes I pull something about the movie
and I talk about it and then I relate it to here and and now so that's a great
thing answers to prayer spiritual insights okay very often when I'm
reading my Bible I'm praying I journal a lot one of the things I do for
journaling is I ask God questions I write the questions down and I ask God
to write the answers through me and a lot of times God is showing me things I
get a I get a revelation I get something that I hadn't thought about I get a
fresh perspective okay and I know as I'm praying that it's meant to be shared
that it's not just for me and so this is one of the things that I will often
share so much of the writing that you see you know was born in prayer it was
born as something that that God revealed to me all right number seven demonstrate
your product being used or give new ideas how it can be used okay so teach
people how to use your products let's say you have essential oils you might
use a different one and you might show us the different ways that you're using
the essential oils did you put some in with a carrier oil and and you know make
it make an oil that they can they can wear did you put it in and make some
kind of soaps did you put it in a vaporizer did you make a cleaning
solution from it the more you teach people how to use your products and show
it being in use the more sales you will have so if you have a product okay some
of you like Ada with your with your momentum planner okay actually show how
it can be used give examples you know show the page you know I see
right now, I don't know if any of you know who Marianne Williamson is, of course I think
she's running for president so you probably do know her, but she, A Course in Miracles
is kind of her claim to fame, she didn't write it but she did the workbooks and all of that
stuff and she wrote a book many years ago, this is talking about using your products
and not having them die, I think she wrote it in the 80s, it's called A Return to Love.
Every night during this quarantine I see her face pop up and alive and I'm curious what
is it, she's reading a chapter from A Course in Miracles that she wrote, or pages or whatever
she reads, right?
And so she reads from it, she holds it up, shows it to the camera, she reads from it,
talks about it a little bit, ends showing it again, alright?
So what have you created, what product do you have?
Demonstrate it, those of you, some of you are getting ready to write music, show us
the studio, show us how you're recording, show us what happened, how did you get inspired
to write it, give us the back story, let us hear part of it, okay?
There you go, using a movie, I was watching a series with my son on Netflix and it's about
a Puerto Rican singer and his song was not taking off, it was just not getting traction,
people didn't like it and I thought, oh, isn't this exactly what I'm teaching, thank you
Lord for reminding me.
So what does he do?
I mean, no one's listening, no one wants to buy it, it's not taking off, the songs that
he recorded.
He goes, he's in another country in this, he leaves Puerto Rico, he's in Colombia, he
goes to his favorite place, The View in Colombia and he has someone video him and he's standing
and he tells the back story, how Colombia changed his life, how this is the spot where
he got inspired and that's what led him to write and then he sings just a little bit,
you know, a little phrase from the song and the viewership went crazy and the song started
getting more popular.
So exactly what I'm talking about, I saw it last night, just reminded me.
Okay, so, you know, demonstrate your product being used, how it can be used, the back story,
the emotions, let people connect.
People are so longing to connect heart to heart, okay?
Show your humor or your fun side when you mess up or when you're laughing or let them
see a different side.
You know, you guys see my business side as I'm doing professional videos like this but
if you go through my Facebook page, you'll see a lot of personal side.
I show you when I'm just a mess with no makeup and I'm putting in a garden for the first
time.
I show you when my son gave me a hammock for my birthday present and so, you know, show
your real, your human side, your humor, your fun side.
All right, customer stories, customer testimonies, powerful things to be posting.
Sharing your blog post.
If you're writing a blog post, share it.
It's a great way to showcase your business and drive traffic to your website.
Interviews, interviews are powerful.
You can interview people that are using your product.
You can interview people that you learn from that will bless your audience.
You can interview your clients to help them or you can interview them and get the testimony.
So interviews are wonderful and remember I taught you yesterday, a good way for Facebook
Live to do interviews is an app called BeLive, B-E dot L-I-V-E, BeLive TV.
You can do a split screen instead of just seeing me if I was using BeLive right now,
you can do a split screen and so you can do an interview.
I gave you this assignment yesterday.
Go to my YouTube channel, like and subscribe.
How many of you did that?
And on there, you'll see me interviewing one of my clients about a course that she just
released, okay?
Which is Beyond Fear for children, okay?
So go in and see what that looks like and come up with ideas yourself.
You can interview people you respect and that blesses them and you tap into their audience
as well because they're going to be tagging you, so it opens new doors.
You can interview your clients or customers, that helps them and lifts them up.
So interviews are wonderful things that you can show, tips, tools, tricks, share things
that you've learned that will help other people, okay, tips, tools, tricks, reviews, okay?
You can always do...
a review. Did you read something? Do a review. Did you watch a movie? Do a review. Did you
attend a course? Do a review. Hey, do a review on prosper in all things. Have I helped you? Have I
blessed you? Do a review. That's a way of both giving, but you're showing yourself and your name
okay as well. So you can do reviews, talk about things all right. That also taps into the other
person's list when you're tagging them. Do it in a way that everybody wins. That builds. Don't
don't ever do things to use, but to lift up. Lists. Lists are always popular. Five things,
10 things, 15 things. I'm giving you 15 things today. It's a list. It's an example of a list.
Useful list. Top books to read this summer. Top books to read during the pandemic. You know,
top ways to grow your business. Top ways to show up on social media. Top ways to grow your garden.
Top ways to get exercise during the pandemic. Top ways to anything. Lists are great. People love that.
Okay, contests and giveaways. Who doesn't like a valuable free gift? I'm so excited. It'll probably
show up tomorrow. I'm having some things made for you. I'm going to be giving away some fun gifts.
So, if you haven't been doing the homework, jump in and get it done. So, contests, giveaways,
really fun. All right, last thing is just some extra growth engagement hacks. Okay,
change your profile picture and your cover often. People don't think about that. That's something
that Facebook shows to everybody. Okay, so change your profile picture and your profile cover. Change
it often. If you notice, especially on my personal page, I change it often. Okay, another thing that's
been popular for a couple years now is Throwback Thursday. So, scan some old pictures. People like
seeing then and now pictures. Throwback Thursday. Post some older pictures. Again, be human. People
are not looking for perfection. Show your human side. Be original. Be fun. Be fascinating. Post
when your fans are online. How do you know that? Get used to checking out insights. Facebook has a
section for you, Insights. It'll tell you who's viewing it so you know who's watching you, when
they're watching you. So, get used to Facebook Insights. Another little trick, when you jump on
Facebook and you look on Messenger, you'll see the little green lights, who's on. And when it looks
like it's really lit up, when you pop in there, it's a good time to post. You know, there's key times
you know, that different people say different times as far as when to post. And I really
think that depends on your tribe. So, I'm not going to give you key times. But you know, morning,
midday, and evening is usually when people do it. So, cross promote is popular. Okay, do things
collaboratively. Tomorrow, I'm going to be talking about collaboration. Powerful way to get to know
new people. When people invite you to collaborate, you know, give, give, give, give. You'll always be
blessed. You know, most of you know, I spoke on a wellness summit, right, last week. And so,
that was a powerful time to connect. And I reached out and connected with all the other speakers.
I direct messaged them, told them what I liked about their talks. And I invited them to receive
my emails, my newsletter. And I've had three of them that got onto my calendar and scheduled
a breakthrough strategy session with me as a result. So again, showing up, letting God show out.
All right, that is it today. 15 ideas that I just gave you. Okay, you can print this out. You can
keep it there. So, and you may have a whole bunch more ideas. Post it. Go under this. You may have
even better ideas. Share your ideas. Where do you come up with ideas for posting? Okay, you can also
do a series. That's another way so that you add just a little bit every day on something. All
right, so maybe same thoughts, same ideas. All right, I hope this has just blessed you. I hope
it's been helpful for you. Let me give you your assignment. Okay, your assignment for today is to
show up by video.
Guys, come on, do it all the way.
All right, the group is private, no one's seeing it,
but show up on video, okay,
in a different light than you've been showing up.
So if you've been inside, go outside.
If you've been dressed up, go casual.
Learn to walk and talk.
Sales-wise, movement is very, very powerful.
Taking people through a portal is very powerful.
You'll see a lot of advertising where they say,
hey, come, come with me, you might wanna practice this,
come with me, and you walk through a door together, okay?
That's not by accident.
Taking people through a portal
has a whole new level of connection.
So I want you to practice something different,
walking and talking.
If you've been inside, go outside.
If you've been outside, come inside.
But I want you to do a live video, okay?
And you can pick any of the ideas I gave you today,
what to talk about, I'm not so concerned what,
just want you getting the experience of doing it.
All right, lots of love, muah, we'll see you 8.30 tomorrow.
I'll be doing a Q&A, put your questions
underneath the purple post where I ask you for questions.
Ada's already put in a bunch of them,
thank you for those great questions.
Put in your questions, things you'd like me to talk about.
And you can put in there if you'd like me
to do a bonus day or two, if you want me to keep going,
I'm having so much fun.
Let me know, talk to me, this is your challenge,
this is for you.
Lots of love, see you tomorrow, God bless.
