GROWTH TIPS

Stop chasing linear results, start creating leverage

Most people think success means working more. It doesn’t.

Success comes from building clarity and leverage.

Here’s how to start.

1. Don’t look for your niche, create it

Stop trying to “find” your niche before you post. You’ll waste months thinking instead of creating.

Start publishing and commenting on three things:

  • What you’re curious about

  • What you’ve learned the hard way

  • What you’re currently figuring out

Watch what people react to. Which posts bring replies, saves, or DMs? That’s your signal. Double down there. Your niche will form naturally through volume and feedback.

By the way, this is exactly how Keith Sakata grew from 0 to over 10K followers in less than 6 months (this year!) 👇

2. Build leverage with content

Your posts can be tiny salespeople that never sleep. Treat them like assets, not diary entries.

Batch your ideas. Repurpose the best ones across formats.

Turn a short tweet into a carousel or video script. Expand a thread into an email or blog post. Use tools like Hypefury to extract the maximum value from every piece of content you create.

You don’t need to post everywhere. Just make every post work in multiple ways.

3. Audit your week to buy back time

Every creator hits a ceiling when they do everything themselves. Start small:

  • Use automation tools like Hypefury, Zapier, or Notion templates for recurring tasks

  • Batch content days to avoid context switching

  • Ask yourself every Friday: What did I do this week that I never want to do again? Then find a way to automate or delegate it next week.

That’s how small creators scale without burning out.
