💡 Main Topic: What I Wish I Knew When I Started on Social Media
Helen reflects on key lessons learned along the way—perfect for anyone just starting or feeling stuck.
1. Start an Email List Early
Whether you have 20 or 2,000 followers, own your audience. Don’t rely solely on platforms like TikTok or Instagram.
Offer a lead magnet (e.g., free PDF, exclusive tips) to encourage signups.
2. Do What You Love Consistently
Create in a way that’s fun for you—whether that’s tutorials, voiceovers, or dancing.
Consistency + enjoyment = sustainability.
3. Stick to Your Niche (But Keep It Fun)
When Helen leaned into tutorials, she saw Growth.
Create content in your niche in the format you love most.
4. Always Include a Call to Action
CTA doesn’t have to be annoying—just add it at the end of your videos.
One viral video can change everything, so be ready.
5. Build Your Confidence
Everyone starts somewhere. Helen recalls her “teenage” creator years—soft-spoken and uncertain.
Own your voice and show up authentically. Confidence grows with practice.
