Today’s episode of the podcast is all about the new social media platform that everyone is talking about - Threads! In this episode I share how to know whether to do something new, how to know when something has worked or not worked, and how to stay in your lane and keep your head down and get on with the things that you need to be getting on with. Are you on Threads yet? How are you finding it if you are? Drop me a DM on my socials and let me know, I'd love to hear from you! KEY TAKEAWAYS COVERED IN THE PODCAST Why the issues you face with social media isn't necessarily about the platform you're on The hockey stick effect of consistency The most valuable resource you have as a business owner LINKS TO RESOURCES MENTIONED IN TODAY’S EPISODE Happy Mind, Happy Life by Dr Rangan Chatterjeee Connect with Teresa on Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook or Twitter Transcript You are listening to your dream business podcast. And as always, I am your host, Teresa Heath Wareing. Welcome to this week's episode of the podcast. Now, I actually started to get a bit ahead of myself again, as you will know, if you're a regular listener, I have literally been recording these like days before they're due to come out, which is very unlike me. So I sat down the other day with all my team and we planned out the next, I don't know, six, seven episodes. And then the world, did something. And I thought, Oh no, I really need to talk about that. So we've moved episodes again, but that's fine because that's kind of one of the advantages of doing it as quick as I am doing it as it were. I mean, there's good and bad to batching and doing things on the fly. So at the moment doing it on the flight is helping because I wanted to address something that has happened, in the marketing space. So Threads have just come out. Instagram, Facebook Meta have released a new social media platform which is in, meant to be a competitive thing towards Twitter. And it's not that I want to sit and talk about Threads, because I really don't, and I'm not on it, so I don't know anything about it, so that's not going to be of any help, if that's what you're thinking this episode is. It's that I want to talk about around this subject of... How do you know whether to do something new? When do you know something has worked or not worked? And how to stay in your lane and keep your head down and get on with the things that you need to be getting on with and not get necessarily distracted and swayed by other stuff? So, It came out and suddenly my Instagram feed is full of here's my first Thread, here's what's on Threads, and then of course all the social media people are putting on there, well not even just social media people, marketing people, and someone made a joke about, you know, give two days and there'll be a course on how to use Threads. You know, everyone's commenting on it and I get it. If people are in that space, absolutely. They should be commenting on it.
