The Challenge: Show Up Daily (It’s Easier Than You Think)
Let’s cut to the chase: Your challenge is simple.
Post to your Instagram Stories once a day for 10 days. No need for polished graphics, no deep planning—just you being you.
Stories are quick, raw, and real—perfect for building trust and sparking conversation. And the best part? They disappear in 24 hours, so there’s no pressure to be perfect.
“Perfection is the enemy of progress.” – Winston Churchill
Why Stories Work Like Magic
You might be thinking, “But will anyone even see them?” Oh yes. And here’s why this little tool packs a major punch:
🌟 Click-Through Made Easy
Unlike feed posts, Stories let you drop clickable links—no ‘link in bio’ detour required. It’s a straight shot from curiosity to conversion.
🌟 Viewers Stick Around
According to Social Insider, 81% of viewers watch all the way through four slides. That’s four times more exposure than a single static post.
🌟 Engagement on Steroids
Polls, questions, emoji sliders—these tools make Stories a two-way street. It’s not just broadcasting; it’s bonding.
🌟 Real Is Relatable
Authenticity sells. People don’t just buy services—they buy you. When they see your personality shine, they’re more likely to trust and book you.
💡 PRO TIP: Use the poll or quiz stickers to gauge what your audience wants—then give them more of it!

Chances are, the answer will be a resounding YES.
