One of the things I love doing is designing marketing templates that enable service providers to create an organized workflow process for their business.

So excited to share this with you soon! 😍

In the meantime, can you guess what type of template I'm currently working on this week? 👇

Classy and Feminine vibe🍷

𝗠𝗼𝗼𝗱𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 are useful for establishing the aesthetic feel of your brand.

These are helpful for designers, coaches, and entrepreneurs because:

❣︎ they establish the basics of your style guide: color palettes, layout, image treatments, and typography
❣︎ it's easier to collaborate. Clients and designers save more time because there's a clear understanding of what direction the client is hoping for

Two of my fave tools in creating Moodboards for my clients are Pinterest and Coolors.co.

✨ 𝗣𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁 is our go-to site in creating moodboards where you can setup a folder and save a collection of your photos, ideas, and inspirations. ♡︎

✨ With 𝗖𝗼𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗿𝘀.𝗰𝗼, you can upload your photos, explore and select the perfect palette that matches your taste and personality.

Do you use moodboards? What are your thoughts on them? 👇

"How to increase my engagement on Facebook?"⁣⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣⁣
As a Social Media Manager, I get this question all the time, and my quick response is, "are you engaging with your followers yourself?"⁣⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⁣
You need to spend a few minutes each day to intentionally engage with your followers, new followers, and potential customers who are considered your ICA (aka your ideal client avatar)⁣. It is important to build and maintain relationships with your audience by liking and commenting on their posts if you would like them to do the same.
⁣
✅ Join relevant Facebook groups where your ICA are mostly hanging out
✅ Engage with at least 20 followers every morning or during peak hours⁣ (Note: Avoid sending direct messages from members of multiple Facebook groups because there are strict rules you need to follow and you could be kicked out!)
✅ Follow or Add new accounts (remember your ICA)⁣
✅ Once you added them, Slide into their DMs and start a genuine conversation (don't be salesy!)⁣
✅ Watch and react to their stories using emojis⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣⁣
Be authentic & genuine when you are engaging with your audience. Instead of worrying about the changes and issues with the algorithm (which we know is a bit frustrating!). Don't just say "Love this post!" Share your feedback, respond to their comments, and try to really build and sustain your relationship with them. ⁣
⁣
So remember, following or adding multiple accounts and liking a hundred photos do not equal to higher engagement. Follow the simple tips I've shared above and apply them on your daily engagement routine to see effective results! ♥︎⁣

Do you believe that whatever or wherever you focus your mind on are things you are attracting in your life?

[𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 2]
Last week, my and I are chatting about working on documentations, contracts, & media kits to improve our onboarding process with our clients.

Same day, I joined a contest on Instagram where they will be giving away their signature templates for their Client Experience and it included the media kit and other templates for onboarding and offboarding clients.

[𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 7]
All I did was share their giveaway promo and tag my friends, and voila!! come Monday (September 7), they announced 𝐦𝐞 as their 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫!! Yippie!!

I just realized that you don't just close your eyes and say, "come my way, come my way." And wish for something to happen. It doesn't happen like that.

It requires the energy to channel through your physical body and take you along the journey to really get what you want. Talk about what you want, share it with your friends, write it down, or simply tell the universe about your desires.

Everything that is coming my way is part of my manifestation. You should try some manifestation practices too and observe signs that have an impact on you and your decisions or choices in life.

Here are 7 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐀𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐖𝐚𝐧𝐭 that I read from Huffpost which are simple and easy to follow (you can read more about it online):

6️⃣ 𝐾𝑒𝑒𝑝 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑣𝑖𝑏𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 ℎ𝑖𝑔ℎ.

Begin looking at opportunities and saying yes, keeping an open mind, and flowing with positive energies. 💓

✌️ LITTLE GOAL SETTING TRICKS THAT CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN YOUR LIFE AND BIZ ✨

And just like that, it's August which means your girl's birthday is coming up!💃

Last weekend, I've written down my goals for my birthday just like what I always do every year. This year, it feels much more special because I'm more mature and I see things differently and clearly. 🤩

Probably most of us already know that it's important to write your goals down. 📝

The act of writing makes your goal not just visible but tangible. Once you write down your goal, you realize it goes from being just a thought or wish to a COMMITMENT.

Yes, it's a commitment babe. You have to be accountable in all your actions and activities to be able to put a ✅ on your list.

Saying, "I want to make a lot of money" is not a goal.

You have to be specific and describe it in complete detail.

“I want to make $3,000 monthly with my business by October 1st.”

Now that’s the goal.

Your goal should be specific, detailed, and cover everything you want, how you want it, when you want it and what you are willing to do to get it.

After writing down your goal, the next step is to make it visible! Save it as your phone or computer's wallpaper, write it on a sticky note or board, or put it in your wallet.

I believe that when you write it down and you surround yourself with as many reminders as possible, it helps you stay focused on your goals and it creates a clear image in your mind of what you really want to achieve. 🙏❤️✨

What's one goal you have that you can't wait to happen this month? 🎯 Share it below! 👇

Hey, online business coaches! Raise your hand 🙋🏻 if you haven't used a lead magnet to grow your coaching biz!

⚡Lead Magnets, Opt-ins, Freebies, Gifts, Content Upgrades (whatever you want to call them) are designed to lure in your audience or subscribers, so it goes without saying that they are free.

It takes one good lead magnet to grow your list. Check out my previous post on 30 lead magnet ideas if you're ready to create an irresistible lead magnet today 👌🏼 https://bit.ly/Types-of-Lead-Magnets

It's important to take note that although a lead magnet can be created in less time, it doesn't mean you can just think of something then offer it right away to your potential clients. It should have a specific purpose and a real solution to their problem/s. Moreover, it should be easy to digest and they can achieve a goal after consuming it.

Aside from your website, I've compiled here a list where you can promote your lead magnets to help you generate leads or subscribers every day!

I did it without a plan.

Or maybe I had one but it's just in my head.

I was focused on the big picture -- "𝘿𝙤 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚."

It's weird that after getting married, I felt a sense of freedom.

Freedom to do what I'm passionate about.

Freedom to go wherever my eyes and mind will take me.

However, it took me quite some time to figure out.

Some of you may be at a crossroads currently with regards to your job.

Perhaps you're feeling dissatisfied.

Perhaps you've been contemplating quitting.

I was in the same position a year ago.

But I was eager to pursue something different.

I've faced challenges and issues such as lack of financial security, low self-esteem, and less real life interactions with my friends and colleagues.

I felt lost, sad, and useless. Asked myself countless times, "𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘰 𝘐 𝘥𝘰 𝘯𝘰𝘸?"

𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗪𝗔𝗦 𝗔 𝗬𝗘𝗔𝗥 𝗔𝗚𝗢.

All of those things are in the past.

Now I have clarity about my purpose - helping business coaches in running their social media accounts and launching their online courses. I am extremely lucky and grateful to have this opportunity to support their growth every day.

I've also challenged myself to focus on my goals and make sure to achieve them. If I fall short, I'm bringing with me the learnings, resources, strategies, and connections I've gained along the way.

Think about what you want in your ideal career. What do you really want to do in the real world? How would you feel if you get the chance to do that?

Your dream job/career/business comes from knowing what you want first. Get clarity on your vision first as this will give you the sense of direction to work toward.

Even if you have no idea what to do right now, that's normal.
