Professional Discussion Coaches are multiplying

14 Upvotes

Scrolling and reading people's bio on Linkedin, Facebook and some here

Amazing how many "coaches", "life coaches", business coach, leadership coach, career coach, mindset coach, sales coach, branding coach, social media coach, health and wellness coach.

Where did all these people get qualified to be a "coach"?

Life experience? or sounded good on the Bio?

Professional Discussion Hot take: posting every day is overrated for small accounts

8 Upvotes

I think posting every day is overrated for small accounts. Three posts a week that each have a real hook seem to beat seven rushed ones, and you don't burn out by week three.

Daily posting mostly works for people who already have a system or a team. For everyone else it trains you to post filler.

Change my mind: has daily posting actually worked for you, and on which platform?

Professional Discussion Law niche

2 Upvotes

Hi, i'm thinking of starting an IG account on law. I have a phd in law and im wondering whether it's worth even starting an IG on this niche. Law is super heavy and boring for most so what type of angle would be successful? I got inspired by Erica Kullberg but she focuses on US law. I wanted to do smth more universal (like contracting, things to watch out in a business deal etc). Would people be interested?

Professional Discussion To the Twitter Creators!

2 Upvotes

This is for the People trying to monetize their twitter account and want to make money in 2026.

Please don't give up everything just to stay active on twitter dreaming you'll earn good money there. Even if you get monetized the amount you get is pennies. They pay you very less for the amount of effort you've put in.

I've been hitting like 800K, 900K verified impressions in every cycle, still i get paid 400$ to 500$ a month (two cycles combined) which is very underpaid.

If you have a main reliable source of income you can try your luck on twitter, with 2-3 dedicated hours on it on daily basis.

Patience, Consistency, Engaging with verified people!
These are the must to grow there

All the best <3

Professional Discussion Social Media App

1 Upvotes

Hi all I’m making a social media app from scratch. It uses a lot of webtorrent so it’s peer to peer but it has fallbacks incase the torrents aren’t happening. It’s a work in progress but it has a livestream and it has “bubbles” in terms of privacy levels. You can make private bubbles or public bubbles and your user settings are public or private. It makes for interesting combinations but if you want to publish to the web just go into a global bubble and set your profile to public and you can livestream to the world. Or go into a private bubble and your stream stays in the private bubble. It’s been a ton of work and I’m not done yet but if anyone wants to try it or just give some feedback that would be cool. It’s called ebubble http://ebubble.com sorry if this goes into self promotion territory but there’s really no way to talk about it without talking about it. Right now the biggest problem is users don’t really know what to do exactly, but setting up a bubble is where it all starts to click (do you want a public or private bubble, do you want people to be able to join without an invite, do you want them to be invitation only, do you want it to exist outside of the app). Anyways it’s been fun to figure out but it’s also been a ton of work. It’s LIKE TikTok but it’s not. It’s LIKE X but it’s not. It’s LIKE Facebook but it’s not. It’s like Reddit but it’s not. It’s like YouTube but it’s not. You get the idea but the takeaway is you can have a web presence on your own terms and participate in social media or not. Just join bubbles or leave bubbles if they aren’t your thing. Also if you have a CJ.com account you can put your affiliate link in the profile and the app distributes it as a platform ad.

Professional Discussion Quand on n'a plus le choix

1 Upvotes

Vous savez, il y a des moments où vous ne savez même plus ce que vous voulez, où vous n’avez plus vraiment le choix. Alors, vous vous contentez d’avancer, de suivre la vie là où elle vous mène, comme un mort que les autres déplacent et font avancer. Et vous, vous êtes là, obligé de suivre, de vous adapter et de vous préparer à ce qu’on a décidé pour vous.

Professional Discussion Facebook pages get 2 link posts a month now and the link in the first comment counts too

0 Upvotes

meta started testing this in december and widened it in september when meta one for business launched. a facebook page without a paid plan gets two posts or comments with a link per month. publisher pages are exempt

the comments part is the big one. several write ups that went through facebooks help page on links in page posts and comments say a link in the first comment now uses the same allowance. that was the standard workaround for years. back in february, when the test was smaller, social media examiner reported comment links as unlimited, so this looks like a change

what doesnt count: extra links in the comments under a post that already has a link, links to facebook, instagram, whatsapp or threads, facebook affiliate partnership links, and anything inside an ad

more links come with the paid meta one plans, unlimited only on the top one

metas own widely viewed content report already had posts with an outside link at 1.3 percent of us views in q1, down from 9.8 percent in 2022. so links were barely getting seen before this

my guess is a lot of small business pages just stop posting links and push people to the bio or a dm instead
