104: You’ve Been Sold a Lie - Smarter Ways to Be Visible Without Social Media
Manage episode 510138645 series 3584590
In this episode, Jules White exposes one of the biggest myths small business owners face: that success depends on being on social media.
Jules explains why the promise of quick wins on platforms is misleading, and how the constant push to post every day drains time, energy, and creativity without reliably bringing in clients. Instead of chasing algorithms, she shares proven alternatives that put you back in control and help you build assets that last.
Key Takeaways:
- The Social Media Myth: Why being told you must show up daily to survive is a lie that leaves business owners feeling like they’re failing twice over.
- The Highlight Reel Problem: How comparing your reality to someone else’s curated, team-supported success story sets you up for frustration.
- The Impact of Algorithms: Why putting all your energy into social platforms leaves you vulnerable to sudden changes and disappearing reach.
- Stronger Alternatives: Explore the power of your website, Google Business Profile, email list, partnerships, and referrals for long-term growth.
- Visibility Without Burnout: Why visibility is essential, but social media is optional—and how to choose a marketing approach that actually feels sustainable.
If you’re ready to step off the social media hamster wheel, this episode will show you what to focus on instead.
