🚨 Your website should do the heavy lifting in your sales process.

Here’s the deal: By the time someone gets on a sales call with you, they should already be sold.

Why? Because your website:
✅ Clearly communicated what you do.
✅ Showcased your expertise and credibility.
✅ Answered their questions before they even asked.

A good, strategic website is your silent salesperson - working 24/7 to filter out the wrong clients and prepare the right ones to say “yes” before the call even starts.

✨ Imagine showing up to a sales call fully confident, knowing your website already did most of the talking for you. That’s not just a dream - it’s what happens when your site is designed to SELL.

💡 If you’re still spending all your time convincing prospects on calls, it’s time to look at your website

🚨 The irony is real

Creators shout from the rooftops:

„You NEED a website because social media could disappear overnight!”

And then what do they recommend? SaaS platforms like:
❌ Shopify
❌ Wix
❌ Squarespace
❌ Showit
❌ Stan Store
❌ Beacons.ai

Let’s break this down:

On these platforms, you don’t own your website. You’re renting it. You have no control over:
🔹 How it runs.
🔹 What happens to your files.
🔹 Whether your site even exists tomorrow if the platform shuts down or changes its policies.

✨ We do things differently. That’s why we ONLY work with self-hosted WordPress (and WooCommerce for e-commerce).

Why? Because:
✅ You own it—your files, your data, your business.
✅ It’s scalable and customizable to grow with you.
✅ You’re not at the mercy of a platform deciding to change the rules.

Having a website is about freedom and security—not just ticking a box.

💡 Stop settling for “easy” solutions that leave your business vulnerable. Build a website that you own.

🚨 Stop inviting your friends and family to follow your business page

Here’s why:
Your friends and family aren’t your target audience. They love you, but they’re not buying from you. When they scroll past your posts without engaging (because let’s be honest - they will), it kills your reach.

❌ Algorithm thinks your content isn’t relevant.
❌ Fewer people in your actual audience will see your posts.
❌ Your engagement rate tanks.

It’s not about vanity metrics like followers - it’s about building an audience of people who actually need what you’re offering.

💡 Here’s the truth: A smaller, engaged audience is more powerful than a big, silent one. Your goal isn’t to collect followers - it’s to attract clients.

So, stop chasing numbers and focus on the people who matter. Build your business for the ones who’ll buy, not just the ones who’ll like out of obligation.

🔴 NEW VIDEO EDITING APP ANNOUNCED!

This Sunday seems sooooo long! With TikTok and CapCut banned in The US, new grid on Instagram and… TikTok’s comeback? We have another announcement!

Meta just announced that Edits app is available in AppStore for pre-order. It is supposed to be a Meta’s answer for CapCut as far as I understand but for now… it just doesn’t look promising.

They’ve published a few screenshots from the app in the AppStore and they don’t look promising. It seems in terms of functions, Edits will be far from what CapCupt has accustomed us to.

Let’s hope I’m wrong - we’ll see in a month! 😅

🔴 My grid is destroyed! 😭

How many times since yesterday have you heard or read that sentence?

My feed on Threads yesterday was FLOODED with such posts.

The truth is, experienced social media managers have seen it coming for a long time.

✅ 4:5 vertical posts were recommended over square ones
✅ Vertical content was winning on all social platforms
✅ Meta was testing that grid for months now with different groups of users

It is not an overnight idea.

It has been implemented and tested months ago.

Now it’s just dropped to everyone.

It is smart to follow us so you don’t miss such news the next time ✨

… and even smarter to hire us so you can get ahead of your competition 🚀
