Is your social media showing what you do—or helping potential clients understand how you can help them?

In this Ask Brian episode, Brian Keane answers a personal trainer's question about growing their social media. He explains why your positioning matters, how client stories can demonstrate your coaching, and why attraction, nurture and conversion content serve different purposes. You'll hear Brian's Harry Potter and Gandalf comparison, his approach to choosing a core platform, and a practical way to assess whether your last ten posts offer value to somebody discovering you for the first time. Topics covered: 

  • Make your clients the heroes of the story.
  • Understand attraction, nurture and conversion content.
  • Give new visitors a reason to follow your page.
  • Show the problems you help people solve.
  • Build trust before asking people to work with you.
  • Choose a specific audience and focus your message.
