You Keep Posting. Is It Building the Business?
You have been told to post consistently. You manage it for two or three weeks. Then you disappear. Facebook reports that you published fewer posts and received less engagement. You say you were busy. Then you admit what was really happening. The content strategy felt soul-sucking, and you hated it. That does not necessarily mean posting regularly is useless. People still need some way to encounter the business, understand what it does, and remember it when they need something. But post consistently does not tell you how often, where, or what the content needs to accomplish. It does not distinguish between having no ideas, having too many ideas, finishing the material but never distributing it, or publishing regularly without helping anyone understand the business.

If every sale begins with you posting, emailing, or starting another conversation, the business slows down whenever your capacity does. OfferLab allows creators to list offers so affiliates can help carry promotion and sales. It also allows someone to participate as an affiliate without creating products, managing funnels, or handling fulfillment. If OfferLab would help but setup will die on the to-do list, I’ve got you.
