How to make a Linkedin or Instagram post convert fast into sales: (80% of people miss this & blame the algorithm)
You blame the algorithm when their Instagram or LinkedIn posts fail to generate leads or convert them into paying customers.
Yet, the truth is simpler – and more actionable.
If your posts are not converting, it’s not the algorithm’s fault. It’s your strategy.
Here’s a no-nonsense framework to fix it.
1. Identify their HELL
Start with the customer, not with yourself.
Who are they? What keeps them awake at night? What gaps are they desperate to close? Document the precise pain points of your ideal clients. Pain is the starting point of any viable sales conversation.
2. Clarify their HEAVEN
Next, map out the ‘heaven’ they’re striving for. Whether it’s more money, higher status, or simply the peace of mind of a better night’s sleep, people buy transformation, not transactions.
3. Speak to Their Pain, Not Your Success
Social media is FULL of fake and real success stories. Resist the temptation to join the chorus. Instead, create content that addresses the real concerns of your audience. Show them you understand, rather than showing them how well you’re doing.
4. Use the Three-Part Content Formula
A. Proof
Show, don’t just tell. Use examples and stories of how you have delivered results. Nothing signals trust like proof.
B. Education
Offer insights that reveal you understand the problem better than anyone else. When people trust you as a guide, sales follow.
C. Sales
Don’t hide your offer. Be explicit. Invite them to work with you. Posts that convert are clear about the next step.
5. Stop Posting. Start Selling
While content builds credibility, conversations close deals.
Send direct messages (I send 30 daily)
Automate outreach with tools like ManyChat
Convert Instagram followers into phone or Zoom conversations
Conversations turn content into cash.
