5 Ways to RUIN Your DMs and Never Close Another Sale 😱

After coaching over 100,000 online marketers, I can tell you that a LOT of business is LOST in the DMs. 😳

Your content gets them there. Your DMs lose them. Stop making these mistakes… ⤵️

1️⃣ Copy & pasting the same script to everyone.
They can FEEL it. If your message sounds like it was sent to 47 other people that day, their guard goes up. People want a REAL conversation, not a pitch template.

2️⃣ Leading with your product or opportunity FIRST.
Nobody wakes up hoping a stranger will slide into their DMs and pitch them something. 😂 Ask questions. Be a human first. Show genuine interest in THEM before talking about what you sell.

3️⃣ Following up like a bill collector.
There’s a difference between follow-up and stalking someone’s inbox every 3 days with “just circling back!” 😬 If they didn’t respond, repeating yourself louder isn’t the answer. Engage with their content. Add value. THEN follow up when you have something relevant to say.

4️⃣ Writing a novel nobody asked for.
Six paragraphs. Your life story. Company history. Commission breakdown. Three links. 😵‍💫

They opened it, saw the wall of text and CLOSED IT. 😂

Keep your first message SHORT. Conversational. One question. One thought. Invite a reply, not a reading assignment.

5️⃣ Not DMing at ALL.
This might be the BIGGEST one. 👏

People post content all day long but never actually START conversations.

Your content opens the door.
The DM is where the conversation happens.
And the conversation is where the SALE happens. 💰

If people are engaging with your content and you’re never starting genuine conversations with them, you’re doing all the hard work and skipping one of the most important parts.

Your DMs are the closest thing you have to a face-to-face conversation on social media.

Treat them that way. 🫶

If this was helpful, SHARE it with your team or drop it in your group! 🩵

Hope it helps! 😎🙌

🚨 5 Ways to Use STORY LOOPS to Get More People Watching Your Stories 🔁👀

If you’re using Stories to grow your online business, STOP thinking about each slide as a separate post.

Think about creating a STORY people actually want to finish. 👏🏻

That’s where story loops come in.

A story loop creates an unanswered question or curiosity that gives someone a reason to keep tapping.

Here are 5 ways to use them… ⤵️

1️⃣ OPEN WITH CURIOSITY

Don’t give everything away on the first slide.

Instead of:

“Here are 3 things I learned about marketing.”

Try:

“I spent YEARS making this mistake in my online business without realizing it… 😳”

Now I want to know what the mistake was.

OPEN THE LOOP. 🔁

2️⃣ DON’T GIVE THE PAYOFF TOO QUICKLY

Take people on the journey.

What happened?
Why did it matter?
What did you learn?
What changed?

You’re not dragging it out for 27 slides 😂, but you ARE giving the story enough room to develop.

3️⃣ MAKE EACH SLIDE LEAD TO THE NEXT

Before posting a slide, ask:

“Why would someone want to tap to the next one?”

Try phrases like:

“BUT here’s where it gets interesting…”

“Then THIS happened… 😳”

“And this is the mistake most people make…”

Simple transitions can keep the story moving.

4️⃣ CLOSE THE LOOP

If you create curiosity, eventually PAY IT OFF. 👏🏻

Reveal the answer.

Show the result.

Share the lesson.

People will stop trusting your hooks if you constantly tease something and never actually deliver VALUE.

5️⃣ OPEN ANOTHER LOOP BEFORE YOU FINISH

Once you’ve answered one question, you can create another.

“Now here’s the part nobody talks about…”

That gives someone another reason to KEEP WATCHING. 👀

But don’t overdo it.

Every slide doesn’t need some dramatic cliffhanger. 😂

The goal is simply to make your Stories feel connected instead of looking like 15 completely random posts thrown together throughout the day.

Remember…

They’re called STORIES for a reason. 😉

HOOK ➡️ BUILD ➡️ PAYOFF

Stop thinking:

“What should I post on my Stories today?”

Start thinking:

“What STORY am I going to tell today?” 🔥🔁
