EP 09: Instagram Is NOT A Reliable Sales Strategy

The Debbie Does Podcast

Are you someone that relies solely on Instagram to sell your offers? If you are, this episode is for you!

In this episode, Debbie explains why Instagram is not a reliable sales strategy and the importance of diversifying the social media platforms that you are showing up on. She shares a story about her previous client Melissa, who got hacked, lost access to all her social media accounts, but still had one of the most successful months in her business. She discusses how this was possible.

Spoiler alert: it involves having an engaged email list!
