🫧 How I create content that converts readers into leads


The No Barrier Reef 🪸

Hey Reader,

Writing content that connects with readers is simpler than most people think.

Here's what nobody tells you about creating content that pulls in leads:

Most creators overcomplicate their work.

They write these long, sophisticated articles filled with industry terms.

They use big words to sound smart.

At best, people skim through their content. At worst, they bounce.

The solution? Write like you talk.

Share your stories.

Be vulnerable.

Talk about your failures and what you learned from them.

When I first started my business, I focused on sounding professional.

My articles read like academic papers.

Zero personality. Zero engagement.

Zero leads.

Then I changed my approach.

I started writing about real stuff.

Like that time I lost $10k because I didn't have a proper client onboarding process (still hurts).

Or how I messed up my first presentation by focusing on features instead of benefits.

Guess what happened?

My content started connecting with people.

They reached out through DMs, wanting to learn more.

Some became clients.

Here's what made the difference:

1. Raw honesty about mistakes and lessons learned

2. Simple language anyone can understand

3. Real examples from personal experience

4. Clear takeaways readers can use right away

The best part? This approach takes less time and effort than trying to sound sophisticated.

Want to test this out? Pick one challenge you've overcome in your business.

Write about it like you're telling a friend over coffee.

Try it and let me know how it goes.

When I was a little kid, I was fascinated with ants. I stared at them for hours. I would follow up on a single colony for week.s I read books about them (highly recommend Bernard Werber's books. Truly innovative) Do you know how to find a colony? You tap an ant. It panics and runs home. Back to where it's safest. People are the same. That's why we shout 'Mommy!' when we're scared.

The No Barrier Reef 🪸 The most important part of becoming a solopreneur is failing. If you don’t fail, you don’t learn. And there’s a lot to learn: What kind of work are you really good at? What is your ideal client profile? How much should you charge? What type of content should you write? How should you build your offer? All valid questions, requiring trial and error. The social media gurus love coloring things black & white. “Do this!” “Don’t do that!” “Here’s the simple path to success.”...
