Episode notes
Test Many Formats Not One Silver Bullet
- Test variety not a single silver-bullet content type when stuck under 1,000 followers.
- Millie advises rotating topics, delivery (talking head vs. voiceover) and formats to discover what resonates instead of repeating one idea.
Use Messy Action To Learn Faster
- Do messy action: publish imperfect work to get clarity and momentum.
- Millie gives examples like picking an idea, testing multiple pillars, or posting without perfect hashtags to learn faster.
Use 30 Posts Or Nine Videos As An Audit Window
- Audit short form after ~30 posts and long form after ~9 videos to know when to pivot.
- Millie uses 30 short posts or nine recent long videos (30 days of data) as audit windows to spot what needs changing.
