Ladies, Are you ready to unlock your Inner Superstar and finally step into your own Brilliance? There are far too many incredible women out there, YOU INCLUDED, who possess a HUGE gift and are destined to shape the world. But here's the thing: many of you aren't raking in the MONEY you truly deserve from your business. And guess what? If you're not earning the money, you're not having the impact! It's like jam without cream, or Batman without Robin – just not the same!! I see this pattern all too often…. YOU are totally in love with what you do, and you're eager to lend a hand to others. It's a match made in heaven! But hold the phone; it's not a Real Business if it's not buttering your bread enough. I just can’t take it anymore!! I’m meeting all these outrageously talented women who are basically giving away their services for free; it makes me want to scream – no, really, it does! Why is that? Because these same women are often their harshest critics. They're out there, constantly beating themselves up for not reaching their business goals. They think they need the latest shiny marketing strategy, or Facebook Ads, or maybe they need to network more. Don't get me wrong; these strategies might have their place. But the bottom line is this - all the strategies in the world won't work for you if you don't work on yourself first. People see you and think you've got it all figured out. You're the success story they all want to be. You’re ‘showing up on social media’ and you’re at ‘all the networking events’. Hell, maybe you’ve even won an award!! If they only knew that you're barely scraping by, that you're miles away from the fortune everyone thinks you're making, and some days you think about giving it all up! One day, you're on cloud nine (probably when you've just snagged a new client or realised you can pay all the bills this month); the next, you're spiralling into ‘I can't do this anymore’ territory. It's like a never-ending rollercoaster of emotions and financial struggles. Are you fed up with pretending that everything's A-OK when it's really not? You're at that point where you're shouting, "There HAS to be a better way!" And you're determined to find it. If you've been nodding along to this, and you’re ready to hit those £5k minimum months, consistently, then THRIVE is just for you! I'm here to introduce you to a different way, a way that combines simple business strategies with a hefty dose of deep personal growth. So, the real question is - are you ready? Because I am! DM me the word ‘THRIVE’ and let’s see if you’re a fit for this coaching group and we’re a match for each other. --------------------------------- I'm Dawn, your Zero BS, High Vibe AF Coach. 🦄 I strategise your BRAIN & your BUSINESS, so you can achieve your next 'Best Month Ever' 🔔 Ring my bell to see my content in your home feed 🎇 Come join our FREE Community - High Vibe Tribe - link is in my Featured Section

Never underestimate the value of community. Yesterday, I asked for your best advice on getting through creative blocks, and you showed up in a big, big way 🙏🏽⚡️ I'm still reading through each of your thoughtful comments—taking notes on all of your insights and amazing tips. But beyond the advice, I received something irreplaceable: The feeling of being *genuinely seen and supported* revitalized me in a way nothing else could. It gave me that feeling of *life-force energy* and made me realize that community is fuel. ⚡️ It's the spark that ignites passion ⚡️ The strength that lifts us when we're low ⚡️ And what we give back to when we're feeling full On Social Media, a community-centered approach isn't just a nice addition. It's a deliberate, impactful strategy that fuels ⚡️ Trust ⚡️ Growth ⚡️ And Resilience Each comment, like, and share builds momentum. It brings fresh perspectives, reminds us we're not alone, and gives us a sounding board for new ideas. A real community doesn't just push content; it listens, learns, and evolves, creating a feedback loop between you and your audience. THANK YOU to everyone who engaged with me yesterday + shared their wisdom and kindness. You've shown me again that a strong community is one of the most valuable resources we have 🥹🙏🏽💖 --- Hi, I'm Robyn Nissim 👋🏽 A Social Media-obsessed millennial who made a career for myself forcing global brands online 💁🏼♀️📲 🚀 I've built some of the largest Brand Channels on Social Media 👩🏫 And now I'm focused on teaching YOU how to do the same 🤝 Visit the link in my profile to secure your spot in one of my group training programs & learn from an industry expert 👩🏫📲

Knowledge is power, but sharing it is liberation. The world is saturated with information. People don’t need another self-proclaimed expert; they need a trusted guide to navigate the chaos. "True wisdom is knowing you know nothing." —Socrates. Expertise is limiting. It often leads to rigid thinking and a false sense of superiority. People don’t need another expert; they need someone who can walk alongside them. When you take the role of a guide, you become relatable and approachable. Guides illuminate paths. They don’t just point the way; they share experiences and insights. By drawing from your journey, you empower others to navigate their own challenges. This builds trust and fosters community. Think about it. Experts often preach from their podiums, while guides engage in meaningful conversations. You become a catalyst for change by encouraging others to explore and discover for themselves. Stop trying to accumulate accolades. Focus on sharing your journey. Offer support, encouragement, and wisdom. The goal isn’t to be right. It’s to help others find their way. When you guide, you transform lives—not just your own but those of everyone around you. So, be the guide they need. It’s not just about you anymore; it’s about the impact you create together.

Know WHO you want in your community and DON'T accept less. 🤚🚫🤚🚫🤚 You have a vision, and it's up to you to make that happen. We talk a lot about marketing to get people INTO a community, to attract them. But what about once they're in there? Some will join any free group that they think is vaguely useful to them and then NEVER engage. Some will join a low cost membership and do the same. People RARELY read anything properly. So here is the crux of the matter. Once in, are they behaving / doing / communicating in the way that will DRIVE their successes, support the community, and enable you to deliver the highest quality EXPERIENCE. If not, they shouldn't be there. It's not the right place fr them. I'm currently watching a friend manage her free FB group that feeds paid memberships. Reading her and her biz partners posts, you'd think they're really harsh. They actively tell people to leave. WHY? Because those people are there for the wrong reasons and with the wrong attitude. 😫They haven't read shit properly 😫They can't follow a simple instruction 😫They don't want to do the work 😫They're making excuses left, right and centre These are NOT the people they want to work with. There is a criteria. Being a community leader DOES NOT mean you signed up to babysit people. We are all adults who decide our own priorities. The marketing you do once people are IN your community determines whether they will stay or not. REINFORCE your criteria. 🤜Make sure they actually have a need for what you offer 🤜Work ethic and mindset - are they actually going to do what they say they want to? Working with people who then do nothing is SOUL DESTROYING. You give all of your energy and no action is taken Are they ready to make it happen? 🤜Code of conduct - I see some fucking dreadful behaviour on social media, from strangers and people I know! Nope. That's not how we roll; you're out. It affects the whole community when there are rotten apples in the barrel. AND being associated with that affects YOU. This one also rolls into: STATE your values. 🤜The IMPACT you want to have on those your work with and on your corner of the world. The ripple effect is real 🤜Inclusivity and diversity - we're back at that code of conduct 🤜What is integral to who you are and how you live your life Your marketing continues through the WHOLE experience of people discovering you and wanting to be closer and part of your community. If you need help with that... The Lead Gen Engine starts on 12th June. I'm showing you how to create all of your own mind-blowing, positioning, and impactful social media content. And turn it into a system that will consistently support you, represent you to the highest level, talk directly to those you want to be surrounded by, and free up your time. 10 spaces.

Hello, LinkedIn family! It's been a while since my last post—life truly happened, and I took a step back to navigate through it all. I often advise on the importance of authenticity and showing up as your true self on social media. Ironically, I've held back because I was hesitant to share too much or be too vulnerable. But here I am, ready to share my journey. Over the past month and a half, I finally took my first real vacation in nearly three years. I completely disconnected from work, and it was rejuvenating. It was a reminder that the world doesn’t stop if you take a break; in fact, it gave me a new energy returning to work. However, upon my return, life threw a few curveballs. My kids returned from a three-week sleepaway camp with lice, and soon, I had it too. Amid dealing with that, I leaned on my team more than ever. It was then that some gaps in our policies became apparent, affecting our performance for a client. Despite my efforts to rectify the situation, it was too late, and we lost the client. This was a blow, compounded by contracting COVID soon after. Being sidelined when my team needed me most was incredibly tough. This series of events led me to question everything: my role, my business, and my capabilities. But it also reignited my passion for what I do. I founded this business because I love social media and the incredible impact it can have on brands. I thrive on connecting with others and achieving results for our clients. Yes, I am meant to run this business, and yes, there are always new heights to reach in social media expertise. The key takeaway? It’s okay to rely on your team, but it’s also crucial to stay connected with your passion and the core of your business. I’m here to say that everyone makes mistakes, and it’s okay. It’s important to share not just the highs but also the lows. Going forward, I promise to show up authentically, sharing all facets of my professional journey. So here I am—imperfect, learning, and more committed than ever. Thank you for being part of my community.

Join us on May 15th for a webinar by Professor Dmitri Williams from USC Annenberg on "Social Value: A New Approach to Social Ties, Communities and Outcomes". We know intuitively that people affect each other, but it’s hard to say how much. What if we knew? Imagine we could pinpoint exactly who caused other people to do things, and how much–whether that was shopping, going to the doctor, voting, consuming media, or any other action. What if we also knew how much this happened in general, and how it varied from context to context? In this talk, Professor Williams will explain a new method for measuring the effects of interactions over time, which we call “Social Value.” Most of the solutions for this age-old challenge have been based on social media, where we infer influence from follower counts or reposts, but which aren’t tied to outcomes. They haven’t been falsifiable. Social Value solves for this, and gets us beyond guesswork. Although we are in the early days of the research, it’s also opening up theorizing and practice around why and how people lead and follow. In this talk, Professor Williams will discuss the general concept of Social Value, how we’ve tested and validated it, and what we’ve found, including connections to personality, race and social capital. Professor Williams will also cover the method’s potential for network research and use in social science more broadly.

This post was going to be a plea for help for one of our members. She woke up last week to half her connections GONE! She had been working so hard to build and serve her network here on LinkedIn. Our DIY Influence community was so upset for her - we don’t walk this road of thought leadership alone! Sanjukta Shams’s story, what happened next, and our ask - below! “Earlier this month, I reached out to my DIY Influence friends with a goal: to elevate my follower count to 2,000 before the year's close. At that time, I was at 1,600 followers and brimming with optimism. I soaked in their invaluable advice and dove headfirst into action—there's no room for delay in my book. Over 900 followers vanished like overnight! So, here I am, rekindling my introduction with renewed spirit. My name is Sanjukta, which, in Sanskrit, means "to connect." You can call me Shama. I am a writer, a storyteller, and a dedicated servant of the nonprofit sector. With pen and voice, I strive to amplify the stories of those whose voices are too often silenced. And I am resilient.” *** We’re THRILLED to report that her connections were restored! AND - our friend is now only 300 followers from reaching her big goal. In DIY Influence, we believe you shouldn’t wait for an invitation to create your version of success. It’s all possible, as we share learnings, leverage connections, ways to shortcut. 👉 Let’s help our friend reach her goal of 2K followers today! 1: 📣Comment below, “I’m In!” and what community means to you! 2: ♻️ Share this post to your network- let’s help Sanjukta reach her follower goal TODAY! Encourage folks to follow the bright, resilient, and amazing friend Sanjukta Shams!

Restricted But not Defeated. As I sat on the sidelines, watching my LinkedIn account remain restricted, I couldn't help but reflect on the journey that brought me here. I embarked on a challenge to share valuable content, connect with like-minded professionals, and grow alongside this incredible community. But life had other plans. The restriction taught me patience, resilience, and the importance of community support. I realized that even in the midst of uncertainty, our connections remain strong. Your messages, comments, and encouragement reminded me that this platform is more than just a professional network it's a family. As I dive back in, I want to share three key takeaways from my experience: 1. Authenticity is everything. In a world where anyone can curate a perfect online persona, authenticity stands out. Be true to yourself, your values, and your message. 2. Community is key. Your support, engagement, and encouragement carried me through the tough times. Nurture your relationships, and remember that every connection has value. 3. Resilience is a muscle. Life will throw curveballs, but it's how we respond that matters. Develop your resilience by embracing challenges, learning from setbacks, and adapting to change. So, what's next? We're picking up right where we left off sharing insights, exploring new topics, and growing together. I invite you to join me on this renewed journey, sharing your own stories, lessons, and experiences. Let's make the most of our time together! Share your thoughts: - What lessons have you learned from your own setbacks? - How do you prioritize authenticity in your professional life? - What role has the community played in your personal or professional growth? #LinkedInChallenge #365DayChallenge #BackAndBetter #CommunitySupport #Resilience
