In Case You've Got Questions...

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I've tried to be consistent with Stories before and gave up. Will this be any different?
    This is different because we're focusing on a simple system that works with your energy.

    The 5-Minute method is all about making decisions upfront so you're not staring at a blank screen every day wondering what to post.

    That said, consistency takes practice. I'll give you the framework and remove the guesswork, but you'll need to implement it. The good news is, it really does only take 5 minutes a day!
  • I don't get many views on my Stories. Is it even worth posting?
    Great question! The people who view your Stories are often your most engaged audience members on the platform, the ones who are most likely to become clients or customers.

    Plus, Stories don't have to "perform" the same way feed posts do.

    They're about building connection, not going viral. This system helps you show up consistently without the pressure of metrics.
  • Do I need any special apps or tools?
    You can use the Instagram app and the free version of Buffer. While there are other fancy tools out there for Stories, this system works perfectly with these simple tools. No additional purchases required.
  • How long will I have access?
    You'll have lifetime access to the course materials, including any future updates I make to keep it current with Instagram's features.
  • What if I'm camera shy and want to create faceless Stories?
    I've got you covered!

    The system includes multiple approaches that don't require showing your face...from hands-only demos to text-based stories to behind-the-scenes process shots. You'll learn how to create engaging stories that feel comfortable for your personality.
  • What if I'm not tech-savvy?
    This system was designed with simplicity in mind. I break down the Instagram Stories features in clear, easy-to-follow steps. No tech expertise required! And if you get stuck, you can always reach out for support.
