Resurrect Your Facebook Group with Video Magic

Michelle LaRose with Jamie Hayen, Video and Growth Coach

Summary

In this episode of the Feel Good Sales Podcast, I’m chatting with Jamie Hayen, a video and growth coach, who’s all about turning your Facebook group into a buzzing, engaged community. Jamie spills her best secrets for getting people to actually interact in your group, and guess what? It’s easier than you think. Going live just once a week and using video to connect with your audience can do wonders for your engagement (and sales!). We also dive into the fear of starting—you know, when you feel like you’re going to mess up—and Jamie’s got a great motto for it: “Start, suck, get better.” (Technically someone on LinkedIn said that, but we can’t remember who.) We’ve all been there, right?
Jamie reminds us that social media is just the start of the conversation—it’s all about sparking curiosity and making people want to learn more. The key? Ask questions and really engage with your audience. It’s not about perfection, it’s about connection. And don’t worry, if you’re nervous about going live, Jamie’s got tips to help you reframe that fear into excitement. We also chat about the importance of finding your people—those communities that support you and push you to grow.
