    267. Content Trends: When to Use Them (and When to Ignore Them)

    I don’t mind a content trend.  I actually encourage my clients to use trend-based content. Inside Micro Messaging I run a monthly content planning session where I share content that’s working right now, so naturally there’s always a trend or 2 that makes the cut.  Because content trends can be fun and easy to create, algorithm-friendly and your audience understands them. But on the other hand, the problem with content trends is you can become over-reliant on creating them or you lose your unique voice because you’re trying to fit a trend to your brand.  So in today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, I want to talk about how I decide when a trend is worth using, when I leave it the f**k alone, and how you can take inspiration from what is working without creating the exact same post as everyone else.  Let’s begin. SIGN UP FOR GET SCRAPPY, GET WEIRD, GET PAID. Inside this 5-day challenge, I want to help you get better at creating from your own ideas, while still knowing how to use what is happening around you as inspiration. So yes, sometimes that might mean using a trend. Sometimes it might mean taking one little piece of inspiration and turning it into something completely different. And sometimes it might mean ignoring what everyone else is doing and following the weird little idea in your own brain. That is the skill I want you to build, because original marketing means knowing how to take what is around you, put it through your own perspective and turn it into something that actually feels like yours. If that’s exactly what your marketing needs right now, come and join me inside Get Scrappy, Get Weird, Get Paid. https://thesocialbolt.com.au/get-scrappy-get-weird-get-paid/  TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE content trends, how to use content trends, trend-based content strategy, when to use social media trends, Instagram content trends, content strategy for online business, social media content strategy, content ideas for coaches, creating original content on Instagram, algorithm-friendly content, standing out on social media, content that converts, content marketing for service businesses, losing your voice in content, original content ideas, social media trends for coaches, building a content strategy, when to ignore trends Background Music is Copyright Free.

    266. How I Come Up With Content Ideas

    One of the questions I get asked a lot is – “Tahryn how do you keep coming up with different, creative and fun content ideas?” And my response is usually something along the lines of – “Welcome to my brain!” Now as much as my brain is wired that way, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have a bit of a process for coming up with content ideas even if it happens kinda subconsciously at this point!  So in today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, I want to take you inside how I actually come up with content ideas, how I decide whether an idea is worth turning into content, and what I do with that idea once I have spotted it. Because if you can get better at this part, you stop needing someone else to constantly tell you what to post. SIGN UP FOR GET SCRAPPY, GET WEIRD, GET PAID. I’m going to help you get better at spotting the ideas already sitting inside your client work, your experiences, your opinions and the way you see things, then turn those ideas into marketing that people actually want to pay attention to. Because once you know how to find the good stuff, you do not need to keep chasing more prompts, more trends or more things to post. You can get scrappy with what you already have, get weird enough to follow your own perspective, and turn those ideas into marketing that helps people understand why they should choose you. If you’re ready to create marketing that feels more original, more memorable and more useful for your business, come and join me inside Get Scrappy, Get Weird, Get Paid. https://thesocialbolt.com.au/get-scrappy-get-weird-get-paid/  TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE content ideas, how to come up with content ideas, content ideas for business, never run out of content ideas, content ideas from client conversations, how to find content ideas, content creation process, original content ideas, content ideas without AI, content ideas without prompts, how to develop a content idea, authority content for service businesses, content strategy for online business, how to create content that sounds like you, content marketing for service providers Background Music is Copyright Free.

    265. How Ellie Swift Built a 7-Figure Mastermind Business Model

    One of the most underrated strategies when growing your online business has nothing to do with visibility, marketing, content or the AI tools you use. It’s actually being genuinely, undeniably good at what you do.  And when I think about someone who truly lives and embodies this – it’s today’s guest on the How I Do Content Podcast.  She’s someone very special to me and who I can hand on my Ned-loving heart say is really f*****g good at what she does. And that’s Ellie Swift. Ellie is the mastermind expert and business coach for 6 and 7-figure coaches, mentors and consultants. As an ex-corporate marketer turned CEO, Ellie has become the go-to for people starting and scaling their masterminds through her program, The Mastermind Model™.  She also runs her own mastermind, The Scalable Freedom™️ Mastermind, where she shares her 10 years of expertise in online business. Ellie has also been my coach for over 7 years and was the very first guest on the How I Do Content Podcast, all the way back in 2021.  So I thought it was time to get her back to talk about running a business in 2026 and what it actually takes to build a coaching business that lasts. Ellie is such a testament to that because she’s built a 7-figure business by keeping her eyes on her mission, even when the shiny things were calling.

    264. 3 Things Missing From Your Sales Content (That Explain Why Sales Feel Slow)

    There’s lots of conversations online about how hard it is to make money in your business right now. And while yes, there are things happening that are out of our control… I also believe a lot of the time business owners aren’t taking accountability for the role they play in sales feeling slow.  Yes, it does feel a little bit slower right now BUT it’s a reflection of the market you’re selling into. The standard you need to be at when marketing + selling your offers in 2026 is higher than ever before.  And yet, the people who complain about business being slow also haven’t changed how they market and sell their offers in years. They’re acting like it’s 2019 not 2026.  If you don’t make changes to meet the market and communicate what your ideal clients need to hear and see from you clearly and consistently – get used to business feeling hard.  But if you really want to make more sales and you’re ready to listen and apply some changes to your messaging and marketing – today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast is for you.  I’m about to share exactly what selling looks like in 2026 – and where you're getting it wrong.

    263. Why you’re not attracting more leads into your business

    Last week, I put the call out to my community and asked them – what’s your biggest challenge in business right now.  Now, not gonna lie – the answer did actually surprise me a little, but it also highlighted that you can never assume you know exactly what’s going on for your ideal client at all times.  And it also reinforced what I’m always banging on about – messaging isn’t something you do once and never again. It will continue to evolve as your ideal clients, the market and your business also evolve. Now my community has just told me that their biggest challenge currently is bringing in more leads to their business.   So in today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, I’m sharing exactly why you’re not attracting more leads into your business.  Let’s begin.

    262. Why Repeating Your Messaging Works: The Psychology Behind It

    So let me take you behind the scenes and play out a conversation that happens on repeat with my clients. They’ll say to me: “But Tahryn, I feel like I’m repeating myself and saying the same thing again and again and again.” My response: “Yeah, that’s kinda the point” And while I’d love to do a mic drop and make this the quickest episode in How I Do Content Podcast history… Obviously I’m going to explain myself and tell you why repeating your messaging isn’t a bad thing, in fact it’s actually essential if you want it to have the intended impact – attracting Beyonce-level clients on repeat.  So if you’re feeling like your messaging is getting a little repetitive and you’d rather cast The Cruciatus Curse than talk about your offer one more time – you need to keep listening.   WANT MORE?

    260. 10 Messaging Tweaks To Help You Make More Sales: Why Your Content Isn't Converting

    98% of business owners tell me they want to make more sales… But when I actually look at their messaging (and the by-product of this, their marketing) – it’s not optimised to help them make more sales or stand out in the current landscape filled with AI slop. And when you feel like you’re doing all the things you should be doing (showing up, talking about your offer, promoting it consistently) – it can feel frustrating when you’re not seeing that effort rewarded in your cash flow.  But that’s also the problem – you’re focusing on the wrong things. More content doesn’t mean more sales and more leads doesn’t mean more sales… Because ultimately what leads to more sales is messaging that moves your ideal client from first discovering you to deciding to buy from you.  So content creation and lead generation without good messaging is a big fat waste of time.  You’ll forever find yourself doing all the “right things” but never seeing it flow through to your bank account.  So how can you fix this? Well I’m glad you asked!  In today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, I’m sharing 10 messaging tweaks to help you make more sales.   What can I say?! I’m a wizard of the people, so I’m giving you what you want – more sales!  WANT MORE?
