From Zero to 1,000 Followers - A Coach’s First Weeks Posting

Most people don’t struggle with social media because of algorithms.They struggle because they never start.In this episode, I talk to Jonathan - a coach who helps men reset after heartbreak, breakup, or divorce - who only started posting online a few weeks ago.No big audience.No viral moments.No complicated strategy.Just clarity, honesty, and the decision to show up.Already, over a thousand people are listening.This conversation isn’t about hacks, trends, or “going viral”.It’s about what actually happens when a normal person stops waiting to feel ready and finally starts creating.If you’ve been thinking about posting but haven’t pressed record yet — this episode is for you.⸻🎥 In this conversation we cover: • What nearly stopped him posting in the first place • What he actually shared in his early content • What surprised him once people started responding • Why confidence comes after you start, not before • Advice for anyone still sitting on the fenceGive Jonathan a follow too:https://www.instagram.com/reset2breakthrough/ If you want more help try Couch to Creator [https://couchtocreator.pro] or Join me in The Studio [https://brandvideo.pro] Follow me on instagram [https://instagram.com/thechrisgoor]

Stop Creating for Algorithms - Start Creating for People

This week I’m diving into a trap so many creators still fall into: building content for the algorithm instead of the audience. After seeing yet another creator start a new Instagram account because they believed they were “shadowbanned,” I break down why that mindset keeps people stuck — and why curating your grid or obsessing over trends won’t work in 2025. I share the simple shift that changed everything for me: 👉 Create from your client’s perspective, not your own. When you focus on helping them, your brand, your content, and your business grow naturally. I also talk about a new piece of tech I’m excited about — the DJI Neo 2 [https://geni.us/neo-2] — and why tools like this can help your videos stand out with ease. Finally… The Studio is officially open! From 19th–23rd November (unless we hit capacity), we’re welcoming 50 new coaches, consultants, and experts who want to create better video, build a personal brand, and grow a business that gives them more freedom. https://brandvideo.pro [https://brandvideo.pro] Message me on socials @thechrisgoor if you have any questions. Short one today, but an important one: Create content for people, not platforms. See you next week.

The 8 Fixes That Transform Your Reels and Build Your Personal Brand

In today’s episode of The Studio Sessions, I break down the 8 simple but powerful fixes that will instantly make your Reels — and your personal brand — stand out online. After spending the last year creating hundreds of videos and helping coaches and consultants show up with confidence, these are the things that make the biggest difference. Not trends. Not hacks. Just practical, repeatable upgrades to how you shoot, speak, and show up on camera. We’ll cover: * Why your clothing matters more than you think — and how it makes you describable * How your environment becomes a character in your content * The right way to use graphics and text hooks so people stick around * The caption style that makes your message instantly readable * Choosing music that supports your brand rather than distracting from it * How to simplify your language so anyone can understand your ideas * The five shot types that make your videos feel cinematic and intentional * And why frequency is the real driver of trust, reach, and brand connection If you’re trying to build a personal brand through short-form video — and want to actually stand out in a crowded feed — these fixes will help you create content people describe, remember, and talk about. 👉 Want to see how I create a full video in under 20 minutes (idea → filming → editing)? https://brand-video-pro.kit.com/20mins Questions?

Your Self-Worth Isn’t in Your Follower Count

When I first started creating content, even earning a few pounds online felt magical. But... I massively underpriced myself. In this episode, I talk about how my self-worth got tangled up with follower numbers, and how long it took to finally feel confident charging what my work is worth. After more than 750 videos and passing 100,000 followers, I’ve realised that real value doesn’t come from viral hits - it comes from showing up to help people over and over again. I’ll also break down: 🎯 Why you shouldn’t price low out of fear 🎯 The difference between performative marketing and genuine branding 🎯 How posting daily discovery content built the foundation for everything we’ve done Whether you’re just starting out or you’re stuck undervaluing your expertise — this episode is for you. 🎥 Join me inside The Studio, our community of creators, coaches, and consultants building brands that last. 👉 brandvideo.pro [https://brandvideo.pro]

Record a Podcast No One Listens To

Sounds ridiculous, right? But every coach or consultant should do exactly that. In this episode, I share how recording podcasts — even with zero listeners — can help you find your real voice, sharpen your thinking, and even train AI to write in your exact tone. I’ll tell you the story of how Christy and I were stuck writing a new landing page until I realised the best copy we’d ever written was already sitting in my podcast transcripts. 🎧 Give this a listen — and then go record something that no one else ever hears. You’ll be amazed at what it unlocks. 👉 Explore The Studio, where we help coaches and consultants create content that connects: https://brandvideo.pro [https://brandvideo.pro/]
