Hello everyone, at the start of this year I created a telegram group where I shared analysis for sport (mostly MMA but others too) and posted bets for people to follow.
My USP was full transparency, tracking everything/not hiding or lying about when I lose and also trying to teach people the skill after doing it for fun for years making no money and then making an income from it after I reached out to some professionals who were kind enough to reply to my messages and school me which sent me on this journey.
I was making a living from my profits but decided that this business had potential as the industry is quite murky so I built a small following of people who appreciated the honesty as well as me explaining what is realistic/what isn't.
I noticed that I needed to invest in the business to grow it so got myself a good 9-5 sales job in tech while I build the business. 8 weeks ago I started a subscription service which is going ok but my growth has slowed down significantly.
Online I make posts on twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn (as I have a large following on there compared with the others) and also have begun making YouTube videos but still the growth seems to have ground to a halt.
I've now spent a lot of time trying to learn social media marketing online but am finding it difficult to get results and my free group of 155 is only adding new members at a very slow rate so I wanted to ask what resources I should look at to learn this skill as maybe the content that I'm finding is outdated or not so relevant to my niche.
Any advice would be massively appreciated as I am considered hiring someone to help with the marketing strategy but I would rather learn the skill myself first.
Thanks everyone
