Now speak confidently in meetings and give exponentially better advice to clients

When I began this program, I'd gone through some major setbacks in my career with my business. I was really feeling kind of low, and after watching the Social Media Summit (live at 2am EST I might add), went out on a limb and invested money that I really didn't have at the time to take the Social Media Mastery course. What it has given me is not only the confidence to create my own posts and to start to get over the fear of being on camera and having my voice heard and putting myself out there. It has made me so much more capable of being there as a social media manager for my clients. I can now speak confidently in meetings. I can give exponentially better advice to my clients on how to not just spend money and hope for results, but to create meaningful, authentic, and relatable content that resonates with their prospective clients. It builds trust, increases their image on social media, and in many cases can grow their businesses without spending money for paid advertisements, just by posting thoughtfully created organic content that resonates with people. I had literally not taken any form of continuing education since completing my art degree in the early 1990s. After being in my profession for over 35 years and running my own business for nearly 25 years, I decided that continuing on a path of self-teaching was not good enough when it came to social media. It's too broad. It's too ever-changing. I can admit that, at my age, it was something that I needed to have a different perspective on. It wasn't just something that I felt comfortable spending countless hours online watching YouTube or reading blogs to learn effectively. What we got in this program was personal access to the literal best of the best, the most highly respected and highly successful masters of each of their domains when it comes to social media. From crafting a story to using the proper equipment to understanding how to grab people's attention and keep their attention and to exponentially grow our abilities through the use of AI as a tool and as an aid, but not as the end-all-be-all to create artificial content just for the sake of posting. We learned to use the incredible tools available to create meaningful, thoughtful, authentic content that captures attention, builds trust, and earns respect. Although I am glad to get an hour to two hours of my work day back twice a week, I will definitely miss this course, miss these classes, and miss seeing the inquisitive minds of my cohort on my screen twice a week. Thank you to Mindvalley. Thank you to Vishen. Thank you to Iliana and Hazel for all the care and effort that went into putting this together.
