Instagram and Facebook DM Magic: How to Get Your DM’s Poppin’ with Ideal Clients and What to Say to Them EP203

Two easy ways to get ideal clients slidin’ into your DMs.

Did you guys know that I spend two hours every single day, seven days a week inside my DM’s answering your questions and getting to know all of you?

But it wasn’t always this way, when I started ProjectME about two years ago, I didn’t get any DM’s, well aside from the occasional 90 Day Fiancé guys (insert “you pretty lady”).

Your DM’s and messages are where many of your sales will take place, as that’s where you can build a more intimate relationship with your ideal client, versus your public comments.

Think of it as a cyber-networking, so for all of my fellow introverts out there, it’s incredible! You get to network with people all over the world, without talking live or shaking hands.

So how did I go from zero DM’s to around 45-60 per day without DMing strangers out of the blue (cuz that’s awkward AF).

Encourage people to DM you in your stories, videos and captions on repeat. This way people will feel more comfortable to DM you and not awkward, like they are bothering you.
Ask people a direct question in stories (using video) and encourage them to answer you via DM. Now you have a private conversation being started. But you BETTER REPLY BACK. If you don’t reply back in a short period of time, it will make the other people feel ignored and uncared for.
Do an IG or FB live and DM the people who attended, and reference something from your live, and give them a gift for attending (one of your freebies). This builds trust and rapport with your audience.
Use the poll and quiz features to ask questions, and you can DM direct responses to people who answered. Don’t try to sell them anything-just keep the conversation going and be of service.

Listen to this episode where I break down the details of exactly how I’ve made my DM’s blow up with ideal clients.

Ep 784 Money, Fear & Your Nervous System: What’s Really Controlling Your Income PART THREE: FREEZE RESPONSE

If you’ve been feeling stuck, unmotivated, or like you just can’t get yourself to sell or take action in your business… this episode will explain exactly why.

What most people label as procrastination or lack of discipline is often a nervous system response called freeze, and it quietly impacts your income more than you realize.

In this episode, I break down how the freeze response shows up specifically around money, sales, and visibility. You’ll understand why you can know exactly what to do and still not do it, how your brain is wired to avoid perceived financial risk, and why your income can stall even when you’re “doing all the right things.”

This is where neuroscience, psychology, and money behavior intersect.

Ep 783 Money, Fear & Your Nervous System: What’s Really Controlling Your Income PART TWO: FLIGHT RESPONSE

You tell yourself you’ll deal with it later.
You’ll check your numbers tomorrow. You’ll follow up next week. You’ll finally get clear on your money “when things calm down.”

But that moment never seems to come.
And instead… you stay busy doing everything else.

In this episode, we’re breaking down the flight response with money — the pattern that looks like procrastination, distraction, or “being busy,” but is actually your nervous system trying to avoid discomfort.

This is part of a special series on money, fear, and your nervous system, where we uncover how fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses shape your income, business decisions, and ability to receive more.

Because avoiding money doesn’t mean you don’t care about it.
It usually means, on a deeper level… it doesn’t feel safe.

Ep 782 Money, Fear & Your Nervous System: What’s Really Controlling Your Income PART ONE: FIGHT RESPONSE

You’ve been told your drive is the reason you’ll succeed.
So you push harder. You do more. You try to control every outcome.

But what if that “hustle” is actually a nervous system response to fear… and the very thing keeping money feeling stressful, inconsistent, or just out of reach?

In this episode, we’re breaking down the fight response with money — how it shows up, why it gets rewarded, and how it can quietly block your ability to receive more.

This is part of a special series on money, fear, and your nervous system, where we unpack how fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses impact your income, business growth, and financial patterns.

Because making more money isn’t just strategy. It’s about whether your body feels safe to hold it.
