Not long ago, someone on Pinterest commented, âdo you think we can even grow a business without social media in 2025â. Just like that, my next blog post almost wrote itself. It reminded me that, sometimes your best content comes straight from your own audience. When you invite others to share their wins, struggles, or honest questions, things get way easier (and a lot more real). A recent research also found that 69% of people trust recommendations from creators, just like they trust advice from family and friends. Thatâs way more than any ad can do. If you run a business, adding creator voices to your content isnât just a nice touch, itâs the new must-have. You can partner with creators who fit your style (there are lots of platforms to help, check out this blog post for a list). Or, you can let your own audience fuel your OWN content: âĄď¸ Ask your readers for stories, questions, or even screenshots of their results. Itâs the simplest way to make your content feel real. âĄď¸ Use those stories in your next newsletter or blog (always get permission first). When youâre ready to take it further, you can feature your favorite submissions and give a friendly shoutout. âĄď¸ Try short interviews with followers or share behind-the-scenes feedback, including things that didnât work out. âĄď¸ Reward people who join in. Sometimes just seeing their name on your social media, website, or newsletter is enough to make their day. Your audience isnât just followers, theyâre your hidden strength. Let them help you grow. Stay curious, Minosh. PS: If you have a story or something that worked for you, just hit reply and tell me about it. â |
Helping you skip years of mistakes in online business with real tools and strategies that actually work.
You sit at your laptop, adjust the gaps, feel good, and press publish. Then someone checks it half asleep on a bus, holding on with one hand, with your whole content packed into a tiny phone screen. Most people do that now. Around 96% use the internet on their phones (Global Overview Report, DataReportal), even if they sometimes use a laptop or desktop (60%) too. Still, mobile is where most of the action happens. So if your content looks good only on your laptop but is hard to read on a...
Let me tell you a secret I wish I knew at the start: When youâre building something online, talking to âeveryoneâ is a waste. Like trying to light a fire with wet matches. No spark, no flame, just effort wasted. What I mean is, you put out content after content, post on almost every social media profile, create countless Pinterest pins, and feel like nobodyâs caring. Most people do this, and it feels safe for a while, but the truth is it just gets you nowhere. And finally, yes, you just give...
The first time I tried using AI to write a meta description for one of my blog posts, I thought I could just drop in a prompt and be done there. The result? It sounded⌠way too robotic, like something nobody would want to read. Maybe youâve felt the same. With all these tools around, itâs tempting to let AI do most of the work. But the truth is, and what almost everyone is not taking too seriously, is that you still have to be the boss. AI can write, but it canât think for you. The reason I...
