One Insight
Opportunity favors those who are visible.
One great appearance is not enough about seven thoughtful touches make the real difference. Consistency builds credibility.
One Story
When I launched new programs, I stopped hoping for a “big splash.”
Instead, I designed a series of seven light, meaningful interactions:
1️⃣ A short insight post
2️⃣ A mini case study
3️⃣ A personal note to key supporters
4️⃣ A helpful introduction or resource
5️⃣ A quick 90-second demo video
6️⃣ A Q&A or live session
7️⃣ A short recap with a clear next step
By the time I reached the seventh touch, doors began to open.
It wasn’t luck, it was math.
One Tool: The 7-Touch Plan
Here’s how to apply it:
Insight Post – share one valuable idea.
One-Slide Case – show a quick, real result.
Direct Note – reach out to three champions.
Helpful Intro/Resource – offer value without selling.
90-Second Demo – give a short, engaging preview.
Live Q&A or Office Hours – connect in real time.
Recap + Call to Action – summarize and guide the next step.
💡 Tip: Track touches per person, not just per channel. Relationships grow from repetition, not reach.
Make it Stick
Block 30 minutes each week to plan or send your next touch.
Add it to your calendar like a meeting with your future success.
Consistency compounds, it turns visibility into trust.
Try it This Week
Pick one project or initiative. Write down your seven touches. Send Touch #1 today and schedule the next six.
Remember: visibility isn’t vanity.
It’s service to the people who need what you do.
Et Voilà!
