Okay, let's go get this party started.

I love having these flashfire business Q&A sessions.

As you're watching live, feel free to leave your questions so I can answer in real time.

I posted yesterday asking for a call of questions and these are you that made it to the top.

So I'm going to start with MJ Topia's question.

If you had to start all over again, what are the strategies that you would use to get your very first sale on Instagram?

And I would tell MJ the same thing I would tell anybody else who's willing to listen.

I would do the exact same things I'm doing now.

Because if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

So let's get into actually the strategies of selling on Instagram, on Facebook, on YouTube, on TikTok.

Any social platform, the methodology is the same.

What you want to do is first figure out.

Now, I'm speaking in the context of business.

I'm not speaking in the context of, you know, being an influencer.

I'm not speaking in the context of just wanting to build out your friends and family profile.

I'm really talking in the context of business when you use social media and you have a business.

It's not enough for you to say that my business deserves a sale without understanding what problem are you solving for.

If you're in business, you're a problem solver.

That's it.

If you're a baker, what problem do you solve?

Getting, making sure that people can commission desserts for an event or a party.

If you're a photographer, the problem you solve is making sure that people feel comfortable in front of the camera and are willing to invest.
