CONTENT MANAGER FOR PERSONAL BRANDS

YOUR INSTAGRAM MEETS YOUR CLIENTS BEFORE YOU DO.

You're better at your job than your profile suggests.

So let's make it brilliant at introductions: the right things, to the right people, while you go and do literally anything else.

For coaches, therapists, consultants and creatives who know what they stand for, and know people check their profile first.

WHY IT MATTERS

People check your Instagram before they get in touch.

Someone recommended you this week. Then they checked your Instagram. Your profile is where people check up on you, and what they find there decides who gets the message: you, or the other name on the list.

THE PROFILE THAT STOPPED
@jesscarterphotoLast post: 34 weeks ago

Hey Jessica! Are you taking on new clients? You haven't posted in a while...

Seen

A last post from spring. Or a lovely feed that gives no clue what you actually do. They know what the profile tells them, and it isn't telling them much.

THE PROFILE THAT'S ON MESSAGE
@jesscarterphotoPosted 2 days ago

Hi Jess! Saw your post about camera-shy clients. That's exactly me. Are you taking anyone on in the spring?


Just now · typing BOOKED

The name field says what you do. The pinned post answers their question. Four posts in, they message you. You didn't write a word of it. You were with a client.

MESSAGING, NOT METRICS

I don't make you viral.
I make you make sense.

Your business already works. You don't need a crowd. You need the people who hear about you, and the right ones who haven't yet, to look at your profile and get it straight away.

GOING VIRALBrings strangers who were never going to hire you. (Lovely for them. Useless for you.)CLEAR MESSAGINGBrings the people who already need what you do.
A LEAD MACHINEFills your inbox with people who aren't a fit.A PROFILE THAT EXPLAINS YOUThe wrong people rule themselves out. The right ones arrive half-sold.
FOLLOWER COUNTSLook great. Pay nothing. 4,000 new followers sounds amazing for a Bristol hairstylist, until they're mostly bald men in Bulgaria.THE MOMENT THAT MATTERSSomeone hears your name, checks your profile, and decides.
GROWTH HACKSWork until the algorithm changes.SAYING IT EVERY WEEKBuilds a reputation that works while you're busy with clients.

Fifty thousand followers who'll never book you is just a very big waiting room.

Is this you?

BUILT FOR YOU IF Your business is you, and it's been going a good few years. You know exactly what you stand for. Your Instagram doesn't say it yet. You know your profile is the new website. People check it to see what working with you is like. You want it done, not explained to you. nodding at all four? hi.
NOT FOR YOU IF You want ten thousand followers by Friday. Different sport, and I don't own the kit. You decide what to post the morning you post it. I plan a month out. You'd rather stay behind a logo. Faceless brands need a different kind of help.

IT'S NOT THAT YOU CAN'T DO IT.

It's that you don't want to.

Clients to look after. Invoices to send. A business to run.

Then, apparently, a reel to cut and a caption to write. On a Sunday. You know you should, but you realllllly don't want to.

You'd rather not. I'd rather do nothing else.

WHAT YOU GET

Here's the deal.

Your profile is where people check up on you. My job is making sure it backs up what they've already heard. I write it, design it and post it. You approve it.

01The Four LinesOne call where we pin down what you stand for, who it's for, and the four things your profile should keep saying.
02Your profile, fixed firstName field, bio and pinned posts rewritten so a stranger gets it in six seconds.
03Twelve posts a monthCarousels, text posts, talking heads. Written, designed, edited and posted.
04Two approval roundsThe ideas and words first, the finished posts second. About ten minutes of your month. Less time than choosing a Netflix show.
05A shot listExactly what to point your phone at, and for how long. You film. I do everything else.
06A monthly look at what's landingWhat people saved, sent and asked about, and what we say more of next month.

Three ways in.

THE WHOLE THING The full profile Everything above. Twelve posts a month: carousels, photo posts and talking-head reels. Instagram, plus one more platform if you want it. For profiles that need to say a lot, and say it on camera. Tell me more →
Kept current Eight posts a month, Instagram only. Carousels and photo posts, no reels. Same Four Lines, same approvals, less filming (none, in fact). For profiles that just need to look current and right. Tell me more →
Done with you I plan it. You make it. Same Four Lines, a monthly calendar with hooks, captions and a shot list, and a monthly check-in. You do the designing and posting. For people who don't mind making it. They just don't want to decide what it is. Tell me more →
All three: three months to start, then month to month.
Apply to work with me →
HOW I START · AN EXAMPLE BUSINESS

Four lines in. A profile out.

The Four Lines are the four things your profile should never stop saying: who it's for, what you believe, what's really going on, and what you're not. We find them on one call. Then every post says one of them, until people say them back to you. (See: Mr Brightside. Nobody's bored of it yet.)

WHAT HANNAH GAVE ME, ONE CALL
1 · WHO IT'S FORCouples therapist in Bristol. Couples who aren't in crisis, just not really talking any more.
2 · WHAT SHE BELIEVESYou don't need to be on the edge of divorce. You'd go to the dentist for a niggle.
3 · WHAT'S REALLY GOING ONNobody's right. It's what's under the argument about the dishwasher.
4 · WHAT SHE ISN'TIt's not an hour of being told off. I don't take sides.

THE ONES EVERYONE ASKS

Quick answers

Will it sound like me?

Yes. I write from what you'd say on a first call, and you approve everything twice before it's posted. Two yeses, or it stays in the drafts.

How much of my time does this take?

Two approvals a month and one filming session. Same weeks every month, so they go in the diary once.

What happens in the first month?

The first month is the busy one. I spend two weeks going through everything that exists about you and your business: your website, blog, old posts, emails you're happy to share, reviews, what other people say about you, and any photos and footage you've got. From that, I work out the four things your profile needs to keep saying.

Then I plan your second month. Posting starts there.

Do I have to be on camera?

Some of the time, yes. You're the brand, so your face is what people are buying. (Talking, not dancing. Nobody's pointing at text.)

Will this bring me more clients?

Some will. I won't promise a number, because anyone who does is guessing. I'll promise the people who look you up get it, and remember you.

Can you make me go viral?

No. Viral is a lottery ticket. This is more of a pension.

I've outsourced this before and it sounded like a marketer.

I know. It's the most common reason people are nervous, and it's fair. I start from what you'd say, not from a template, and you see every word first.

What if I've got a launch?

Tell me four weeks ahead and I'll plan around it. Launch posts replace regular ones that month, so your total stays the same.

What if I want to stop?

You stop. After three months it's month to month. The posts stay up and the profile stays yours.

1. "The dishwasher isn't about the dishwasher."SAY The small argument you keep having is usually standing in for a bigger one.
2. "You don't need to be on the brink to come to therapy."SAY Most couples wait two years. Noticing you've stopped really talking is reason enough.
3. "Here's what actually happens in a first session."SAY Walk them through the hour, and the two things you'll never do in it.
