Ep#82: One Platform, One Offer, One Traffic Source Will Change Your Business Forever

• Kristen Werner & Mia Steel

Share episode

Ever feel like you're spinning your wheels in business, constantly creating new offers but not seeing the growth you want? You're not alone. As two neurodivergent entrepreneurs who've built a six-figure business, we've discovered that success isn't about doing more—it's about focused execution on fewer things.

This year, we chose "focus" as our word of the year, and just three months in, it's completely transformed our approach. We've learned that constantly pivoting after success (rather than doubling down on what works) was causing our results to fluctuate wildly. The solution? One platform, one funnel, one offer.

When we analyzed our numbers, the pattern became clear. Each time we launched successfully and then quickly moved on to something new, our results dipped. But when we committed to refining and repeating what worked, our business flourished. This episode breaks down exactly how we're implementing this focused approach and why it's generating more consistent results.

We explore the three primary ways to build your audience—organic content (building), paid advertising (buying), or leveraging other people's platforms (borrowing)—and why mastering one approach before expanding is critical. For most creators, User-Generated Content (UGC) offers the perfect solution: you can generate income while honing your content skills and building confidence.

Whether you're struggling with shiny object syndrome or simply overwhelmed by too many business ideas, this episode will help you identify your core offer and create a simplified strategy that actually converts. Ready to turn your content into serious income?

Are you ready to master the art of creating content that converts? Hey, I'm Mia, a mum of two who went from being a burnt out ambo to six-figure content creator in less than a year, all while navigating a late ADHD diagnosis. And I'm Kristen, also a mum of two and a former corporate branding queen turned entrepreneur. My dyslexic brain sees marketing very differently, and that's my superpower, and together we're showing women like you how to master video marketing and create content that generates income. Whether you're just starting out or ready to scale, we are breaking down everything from landing brand deals to building your own empire. Welcome to I Am that Content Creator podcast, where we turn scroll stopping content into serious income. No filters, no fluff, just real strategies from two neurodivergent mums who get it. So let's turn your phone into a video marketing machine and let's go. Let's go, guys, be professional guys, let's go. Okay, there's that intro done. That's so grand.

Speaker 1:

Welcome to the I Am that content creator podcast. We're coming through the noise to show exactly how to create scroll stopping content, land premium brand deals and build a thriving online business. No bullshit, just proven strategies that can help you scale. I just had to emphasize bullshit, so if there's kids listening, I'm sorry moms. I'm Kristen, the co-host of the podcast, and Mia is also here with me and uh, what up, mia? Basically what up? We always do that when we're doing our slack dms, like, are you kids around? Whoops, I just said cunt, I know. Yeah, sometimes they're pretty loud. I'm like I really hope by now we're smart enough to know that it should not be played on the car speaker. It should have only been in headphones, because we are going to drop cunts and fuck and stuff everywhere. So we probably should put some kind of like maybe the stars episode. I'll be like just letting you know there's a few words. If you're offended by that, we do apologize, but also that is just us, like we're just rogue. We're wonderful, fun loving folks that like to drop a swear bomb. So today we want to revisit, revisit.

Speaker 1:

Every year we do a word of the year. Now, if you haven't heard that podcast episode, if I remember, I'm going to drop it in the show notes and you can go and listen to it. Now we do a word of the year because it's something that I have personally done for I don't know five years or so, and then when Mia and I started the business together, I said to her we should do it and we've done it and they've been really good. But this year I feel like Mia and I have absolutely used this word in the most powerful way possible and we want to talk about it because, even though it is only March, it feels like November. It's only March. We've lived a life since January Fucking hell. So I suppose for those of you new to the podcast apologies for the start You're all so welcome.

Speaker 1:

Mia and myself, I am a manifesting generator and that means that I pivot quickly. My human design is meant to do a lot of things very well all at once, very fast, skip the steps, just do the damn thing. Now. That obviously sets me up for some incredible things, but can also be a cheeky little downfall. And Mia is a generator and she just generates shit and she can pump stuff out and focus and hyper-focus. And when we pivot, both of us have had the ability to pivot quickly, make fast decisions, hard decisions and go for it Never been a downfall and a failure, but what we have done with the word of the year, which this year, was focus.

Speaker 1:

And we said to ourselves when we decided this word at any point we want to pivot. We need to say okay, focus, does this sit in our word of the year, yes or no? And then that's going to bring us back. It's meant to be your word of the year, is meant to be an anchor to kind of pull you back, and focus has been that, hasn't it, mia? We've said it a few times this year. There's even some some of our slack chats start with okay, now I know this isn't focus, but I just wanted to get this out of my system and then at the end it's ended with like okay, so anyway, we're gonna focus. We'll put that there for later.

Speaker 1:

I've built the heart, built bloody the whole thing, and it's just like oh yeah, stop building, stop building shit. Like focus and like, if you're an entrepreneur, a lot of us have, you know, the same kind of brain. We're problem solvers, we get excited, we want the dopamine hits. You know we've got a lot of stuff going on and sometimes we focus on the wrong things and get distracted, and I have done that basically my whole entrepreneurial life. But having this word as focus has really reined it in and it's almost like the universe has been dropping things on us to remind us to focus, as hard and difficult and boring, as our brains find this, it's where we're going to get success, and it's been dropping clues like yeah, like anything.

Speaker 1:

And we wanted to talk about it on the podcast because, even though it might not be your word of the year, what has come up for us are incredible lessons that we want to share with you, because you may see yourself in some of these lessons, or you may. They may be moments that you just needed to hear today to be like oh, that's me, okay. So I suppose the first thing that we'll kind of talk about is Mia and I have built an incredible business Hive Hub Collective and we have incredible members that have come along with us, and what's been beautiful about it is we have been able to test a few things in this process and and you know, we've had some incredible launches that have have really outdone our expectations. We go, wow, that's amazing. And then we've gone and we've kind of pivoted not completely, but a little bit and then we've had dips and that. Why is that happening? I don't understand it. And now we've actually pulled back a bit and looked at the numbers, and if you are not looking at the numbers in your business, that is a problem, and so we'll kind of touch on the numbers that maybe you need to think about, or the numbers that you should be looking at, just so that you're aware of it. We're not going to go too deep and overwhelm you.

Speaker 1:

This is more of a podcast episode. That is a reminder to simplify things. It's a reminder to if something is working, there is a reason why it's working. Double down on that. As boring as it may be, if you're an entrepreneur with ADHD and manifesting degenerative and all the things, find a way to make it fun. And that's kind of where we're at now. So I suppose, mia, do you want to? Kind of should we talk about where we've seen those spikes, where they've worked, maybe then where we took a little pivot and now how we've come back to things. Yeah, so it's been a bit of a pattern for us.

Speaker 1:

We'll do a launch on a topic and do really well and we're like, wow, that was great. And instead of repeating that exact same process and doing it again, we ah, cool, what else can we do? Because we hear, like entrepreneurs and people that have had hugely successful businesses say, you know, you do a launch, it's amazing. Then, if you go out, you tweak one thing and they're like fuck it, we'll tweak the whole goddamn thing. And then, when it like, does a dive bump. But then when it's not as successful, we're like, and then you don't have the metrics to actually tell you why it wasn't successful or what you could tweak. So we, like me and I, if nothing else, we are transparent enough to let you know that we are in this for real and we will tell you what works, because those people that are telling you like, if you just do this, you you'll have like a $20,000 million launch, that's a crush to it, because you need a lot of things that are going to make those things work. So what we want to do today is just show you now how we're changing one thing or how we're doubling down on one thing and allowing the rest of this beautiful creative entrepreneurial process. Just sit over there for a minute, because right now we need to do this. So, yeah, sorry, may, for interrupting you, but I just wanted to make that.

Speaker 1:

It's the small tweaks that seem so boring, but now we know they're so important. Yeah, and I mean it took us a little while to, you know, not figure this out, but realize what was happening with us. We would do another launch, it'd go really well, and then we'd do something else and pivot and get, you know, caught up in busy things or shiny objects and then wonder why the sales dipped. And then, okay, well, we'll do another launch again and got great results. And then we're like, oh, that was really great. And then we'd do it again. We'd, you know, pivot onto something else or get caught up in the busy work and we started to realize, like what we've been doing is working and we just need to do it again and again and again Rinse, repeat, refine, rinse, repeat, refine.

Speaker 1:

And you know, instead of diluting yourself across lots of different projects and maybe you've got a few different offers and things going on instead of diluting that, just get really, really good at doing one thing and doing it over and over and over again. One platform, one funnel, one offer, one traffic source. Because, at the end of the day, no-transcript, because only a percentage of people are going to convert into customers. So therefore, your only job is to get more people inside that funnel. And if the funnel is leaky, then that's where you're refining it, because you're doing it again and again and you're patching up all the holes, so the funnel isn't as leaky.

Speaker 1:

And when you get sidetracked on something else, or you want to put another offer in your stand store or you want to start creating content about something else because you're bored, that's when it starts to get a bit diluted and your results aren't as um, I was going to say it's that word where it's just like concentrated, I guess, because you're diluting yourself and you're getting caught up in all these other things. And I've done it multiple, multiple times. But if I look back on my, you know, last three years at least, when I have focused on one topic, on one platform, promoting one thing, that's where I've got a lot of my success. And what we've kind of, I suppose, had to realize as well as implement is the fact that I think we were trying to, on the outside, change and pivot and help as many people as we could, instead of focusing on how we were getting the success with our members inside our community, how we were teaching them what was working. And then once, once they're in there, then we can explore and have fun and share and show what's possible. Once they're in there, where from the?

Speaker 1:

You know, if you look at a funnel, if, at the top of the funnel, I think what we were trying to do is is be everything to everybody, which we know isn't the right thing to do. This isn't our first rodeo, but we're also human designers, built like it is and we know what's possible. But what we need to do is get people into our community so that we can show them what's possible for them, and now that's what we now can see happening is, all of a sudden, now it's attracting that person that we know we can help, that might have four or five different things that they need help with, but right now we want to help you get paid for creating content so that you can then fund the business of your dreams, build the personal brand. You want, not have to go back to work, retire. Our point and our passion and our purpose is to help women especially, get paid for content so that they can either do that forever through what's called UGC and landing brand deals and just stick on that path and that becomes their business, or they go amazing. I can get paid for that. I learn better content, I create better content, I've got a community around me and I can build a digital product that I absolutely fucking love, and it's funded by, potentially, ugc and now I can make my own ads because I've learned this skill set and that happens in the community, and I think that's where we got tripped up a little bit.

Speaker 1:

Potentially, and that's what we want to share with you today is if you have one offer like if we asked you right now, think of that one offer that you've got. That, you know, is a transformation for somebody. I don't want you to think, oh, I've got that and that and that, just one one right now. And if you don't have it, that is okay. But if you've got, if you've got four which Mare and I know well and I'm the queen of it I want you to think, yeah, I've got four, but what's a huge transformation? What is a transformation? I know somebody and you don't have to have helped everybody, but one person said to you oh my God, that was so helpful. Because if somebody said that is helpful, that is a transformation.

Speaker 1:

Double down on that, focus on that, focus on that and build on that, build on the content around that to bring people into your community so that then, once they're in there, then you get to take them on an incredible adventure with you, but you've got to get that focus to create that conversion in the first place. Yeah, and you've got to meet your audience where they're at and take them on that journey. And you know, you might not have a community or a membership, it might just be a one-off course. But the whole idea is, you know, getting people inside your world with one message, one problem that you're trying to solve, and down the track you can help them. You can upsell, you can do a few different things, but nailing that one thing first and you know you might just be a UGC creator at this point.

Speaker 1:

Well, focus on that. Don't worry about the stand store, don't worry about anything else. Your sole focus is to get really good at that, really good at the content, really good at, you know, finding these jobs. And until you've nailed that, until you're comfortable with that and you're ready to move to the next stage, then do it. Don't dilute yourself and get sidetracked and overwhelmed and all these shiny objects, you know. Just focus on that one thing and it's also the busyness of it that gets you overwhelmed and looking at different places, like you know, the continuous need to feed and fuel social media, I think, is what dilutes the focus in the first place Because, especially if you're an entrepreneur that's just trying to find out where you fit and how to get people into my funnel, you're continuously testing new ideas, testing this, testing that, getting out there, trying this, or maybe I'll do that that didn't work in one reel, so I'll change it, or that didn't work in, like if you've got an offer that has worked for somebody.

Speaker 1:

It's about doubling down on that message understanding that ideal customer, understanding what they want, how you can help them, and bringing them into your world, usually through a freebie, something that's free, that they can give you their email address and then, once they're in your world, that's when you can create content that is larger content, that is, emails, a blog, a podcast, a voice note or whatever it is that talks to them further, that takes them further down that funnel to the point where they may purchase from you hopefully. So it's. I think social media is that tricky one. It's, yes, it's such a beautiful, powerful, free tool, but it does dilute that focus in terms of you know, you constantly thinking you've got to feed the beast, which you constantly trying to be creative to feed it, which then kind of takes away your point and purpose of what you're actually trying to get people in for. Do you know what I mean? And you over consume and you see other people doing this and that and you go oh, maybe I should do that and getting all confused. And or maybe you're trying to be on too many platforms at once.

Speaker 1:

In the beginning, just focus on one, just one. And that's what I did just on TikTok. You know, my sales started to drop and I started to get overwhelmed and all these shiny objects with starting a blog or trying to make the website perfect and all these different things, when it was taking away from the time that was actually making me money in the first place, which is creating content with the same message to the same person over and over and over and over again. And you know you can build an audience, pay for an audience or borrow an audience. You know, get good at one of those and stick to it for a long period of time before you start bringing in all these other things, and we don't do that one thing forever and that's all you can do. But when you do, look at the big rigs who have been in this game for a very long time. They've got that one offer. They've got that one traffic source, you know, and they've just been doing that for years and years and years. And so do we want to just go over those three Bs I think it was, was it three Bs or was it two Bs in a different letter? Well, you can build an audience, so that's yeah.

Speaker 1:

I was just going to say let's like talk people through that because you may be now curious, and then I thought we could just touch on kind of how we're doing it, to show people what we've decided to do and where this focus comes into it. But let's go on the whole build an audience Like what does that mean? So for most people? This is where you're going to start. What does that mean? So for most people, this is where you're going to start. You're going to build an audience online. So this is organic social media. You're going to post content directed to your ideal customer and you're going to get better and better and better at it. Refine it, refine your message, look at your analytics, and you choose one platform I know we're the queens of it all but one platform and do it. Well, then repurpose. But I would just do one platform. Well, build there, and that's what I did just TikTok. It was just TikTok, you know, and it will take time, like I think we. Let's be really frank. Organic takes time, there's nothing wrong with that, but it does take time, and that is okay. Yeah, yeah, and that's. You know.

Speaker 1:

I always say to people don't start running ads until you've kind of mastered the organic content, because ads are very risky and if your content isn't good, if the creative isn't good, you're going to lose a bunch of money, which is a game, while we have our free masterclass, the double dip method, because you can learn how to do this while you're getting paid from a brand that's also then going to show you how to do it organically or paid, so that's in the show notes. Go and get it, watch it, because that's how you're going to get paid, so that you can do this organic stuff slowly, because there is income coming in. You're not just building, you're also getting paid and you're learning, yeah and yeah. So building that audience is going to take a bit of time, or you can buy your audience, so paid ads. If you're already really good at content and you don't have an audience, maybe you might just jump into paid ads. You know it's a quicker way to sell your stuff because you're paying money to get your stuff in front of people and you can kind of sit back and you're not on that constant content hamster wheel. You've got an ad running, you're watching the numbers, you're getting really good at running paid ads, so that's how you can get another source of traffic. Or you can borrow an audience which is, you know, getting on other people's podcasts or you know, having an affiliate program. So you're putting yourself in front of other people's audiences.

Speaker 1:

And again, that can't. I would build an organic audience first before you start looking at that, unless you're really good at getting on other people's podcasts or whatnot, or you know you're really good at affiliate, managing affiliates and that sort of thing. And I mean, for us we sort of do all three, but we have, you know, our main source at the moment is the organic content. I would say probably 60% and then maybe it's 30% on our ads and then 10% for affiliates. Yeah, and so in the beginning I would recommend building that organic audience first and yes, it will take time and that's why we teach our students UGC, because you get that cashflow coming in, your content's getting better and your confidence is getting better as well, coming in, your content's getting better and your confidence is getting better as well.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and I think that's the thing is, if those things are working, then you know, sometimes the biggest thing that stops us creating more content organically is because you're not seeing the return on your investment, the return on your time. You're not getting paid for it. You know you're in the 200 views jar, whatever that looks like, where that's like me said why we have UGC as part of our communities, because if you can get paid by a brand to create content, you're learning how to create better content. You're getting paid for the content you're creating so that you can kind of take a little bit of a breather and be like, oh okay, I can now work on building my course, building my digital product, whatever that looks like, whatever you're building, to kind of fund that for you so that you can have some more fun creating content organically anyway. And so you know, in terms of paid ads and things like that, we probably wouldn't recommend that unless you've got a um, a product that's actually working. Like you, you've tried, you've tested, it's working. It might be a digital product, it might be a digital course, it might be something like that that's working and so you can start running ads to that, or if it's a membership or something like that. But it's got to be a community or something that's working for you, so that you are paying for the right leads, I suppose and that comes again with time and things like that.

Speaker 1:

But if you're in the boat that you're really looking at that organic content, then it's just about creating more of it and seeing how it works, testing it, but sticking to one platform. So if TikTok isn't your thing, don't do TikTok. If Reels has been your thing and you've been on Instagram for a while, you're like I get it, I understand, I'm comfortable there, stay there. Don't think you have to do something different because somebody told you to you know, stick to the one that you enjoy, because if you enjoy it, you're going to do more of it, and that's the most important part. Yeah, and once you get good at it, then you can bring in a podcast, then you can bring in some other things I just want to touch on.

Speaker 1:

You might be thinking, okay, I've got this course and it's not really selling that well, and I've got shiny objects syndrome and you're telling me to focus, but then we're saying, go and do some UGC. Well, that's not focusing. The main reason why we teach UGC and why we think it's amazing is because if you're trying to sell something or do something online and it is not working properly, it's nine times out of ten it's a content problem. And if you keep ignoring that and you keep throwing spaghetti at the wall and you've got no cash flow coming in, your confidence is low, your content's not converting. You need to do something about it. And UGC is that one thing that you can focus on for a little while. It doesn't have to be your main goal, your main anything, but it's almost like that have your cake and eat it too, type of thing, where you're fixing all the problems and getting paid for it so that when you are building your dream business, you can focus on that solely. But you've learned these skills that are just going to propel it forward.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and, for example, we've got Christina, who came into our world with her membership and she came to us like oh, could you guys help me? Like I'm building a digital course and a membership. I really want to learn more, yep. So she came into the community, loved being in the community and then was like what's this UGC? And her membership and course is around video editing and she's incredible with video editing. And she was like what's this UGC? I'm like you'd be amazing at UGC, like your editing skills are incredible. So she started doing UGC and all of a sudden just kind of said to us didn't know, this was even a thing. Now she's got brands coming to her, she's had paid brand deals, she started a podcast around UGC in the UK. Like all these things came from that desire of wanting to bring more people into her community and build her course and things like that and then discover this. So she didn't lose focus. But she gained the ability to get paid so that she was then able to focus on building her membership or at least getting paid, so that when she's doing her membership, she's enjoying and loving speaking to those members and sharing with them, but knowing there's an income coming into her family through UGC.

Speaker 1:

So it's not losing focus at all. All it is is giving you confidence, clarity, cash flow all the things that are needed to stay in this online world, because it's it's a big place and if you can stay here because you've got cash flow, you're going to build that confidence, your content's going to get better, the things are going to be amazing, it's going to work and you're leveraging something that's going to help you in your business long term. If you've got to go to a nine to five to fund your business, that's losing focus because you're fucking spending 80, I was going to say 80, 38 hours a week at a job when you could be, you know, creating content and getting better at content at home and getting paid for that and that's going to be. You can leverage that in any business, doesn't matter what you're selling. Yeah, so in terms of kind of where this conversation started around having the word of the year, so if you haven't got a word of the year and you're curious, go and listen to that podcast episode. You could start now. Or if you have got a word of the year and you feel like you're a bit detached from it, maybe revisit it, see what it means to you.

Speaker 1:

But for us, we just wanted to share this lesson with you because what we did do is saw the numbers moving and changing. Every time we had a win. We kind of did a bit of a pivot. We changed too many things in the process and we went, oh, we'll need to do this, this, this, and then we saw a decline and then we went hang on a minute way back there. We'll go back there Still with the same intention, still with the same kind of overall focus, where now we're at a stage where we've tightened the funnel so tight.

Speaker 1:

We have one. We have two offers. One is a free masterclass which you can come into at any time and watch it and understand what we're about, and one is a lower ticket UGC beginner course, like really beginner stuff, where you can just get understanding, learning and then, if and when you need more support, the community is going to be there and we have an open close. You can come into the community and find out more with us. But it's it's more about, there's it's just all funneling to the same thing. So when we create content, it's going to the funnel, it's it's one, it's not. Oh, we've got that freebie and that freebie and that freebie and that's on the standstill and that's over there. Maybe we should promote that.

Speaker 1:

It's before we were doing that and it was still all kind of going to the same place, but it was too overwhelming. It was overwhelming for our affiliates. We could see that we said to them sorry guys, guys, we fucked up. We've tightened the ship for you, um, and since we did that, they've now seen success, because they're like, oh, now I can just send my community to do this one thing. I'm like, oh, sorry guys, we didn't mean to confuse you. So even that is exciting for us because finally we're giving them what we always wanted to. But we just, you know, we got overwhelmed, aware, the first to say, fuck, it happens, it's okay, yeah, and it's all. You know. We got overwhelmed and we're the first to say fuck, it happens, it's okay, yeah. And it's all learning, you know, and it's a really big lesson on meeting your audience where they are at, yeah, not getting too ahead of the game and talking about a million different things and overwhelming them. Meet them where they're at at this point in time, yeah, yeah. So that is our podcast for today.

Speaker 1:

If you've got a word of the year, please let us know in the DMs what it is. And if you're having trouble and you've slipped away from it and you want to come back to it, even better, we will help celebrate you on that one. Do we have a little love? Don't love for today, mia, by any chance. Oh okay, my love this week is TikTok again. Oh my God, like I love again. Oh my god, like I love tiktok.

Speaker 1:

This is stupid. It has diagnosed basically every single problem I have had with my body. I I have never been able to burp right, just never been able to burp. I can't, all right. I was like this is weird. Like everyone can burp and I can't burp. It's weird. Saw a tiktok last night and she's like I just figured out why I can't burp. It's called I don't know what it's called. It's called RPCD or something and I'm like what?

Speaker 1:

This is a condition, Deep dive into TikTok, into this, whatever it's called. Yeah, it's a thing. It's a condition where, like, something in your trachea is too tight so you can't let air out. You can let air in but it can't come back out and you can get Botox injected into your neck. Okay, good, all these people are cured because you get so bloated and like you can't, you know, release yourself and you get Botox in the neck.

Yeah, okay, all right, tiktok, diagnose me. I'm like, there you go, there you go. So if you can't burp, I need to write down what the name is. It's some weird name, but it's an actual thing.

Our listeners just know too much about us. I know right, come to our podcast, hear about our ailments. Jesus Christ Sounds like such an old word. My ailments, I know, but you know like do you get that point when you hang around your folks and stuff like that and you find that their chat just goes to like what pills they're on and what doctor's appointment they had this week. You're like, oh my God, that's happening. That's just not okay.

Speaker 1:

You get to an age like my stepdad has had a few falls over the years. You get to that point where you don't fall over, you have a fall. Yeah, I didn't trip down the stairs, I had a fall today. That's so true. Shit, shit. What's that's so true? What's your love this week? Um, my love this week is um. So I had a friend's 40th and it was just.

I was like just, thank you for like accepting me, like I'm a lot and I just, I, just, I just well, he was like on the dance floor too. He's pretty good like that. But at one point he was pretty he was getting tired because his feet hurt and I was like, dude, you're wearing flat shoes. Like I knew I was like there's a lot of partners and husbands that'd be like she's a bit embarrassing, she's a lot this guy's like whatever. So I also love him for that. So that's pretty good. So I don't really have a don't love, other than I must admit the one thing that I don't love is sticking to the party theme.

When I used to work corporate and stuff like that, I used to wear a lot of high heels. Like I love a high heel that matches my outfit, like it's my jam, dressing up as we know, dress handy, feel it's my thing, and high heels. Now and I we can't be friends like we're. Really I didn't realize that it actually happens. Like you actually get to an age where it fucking hurts and I wore boots and that was fine and they were high, but by the end of the night, like the next day, I was like, mate, you know what the balls of your feet feel like? They're small, it's like a little ice pack.
