When buyers do not understand a service, explanation alone may not make its value tangible. A short live demonstration or sample coaching exchange lets viewers experience how the service works and judge the provider's ability directly.

Unfamiliar services require demonstration
A short test run lowers the audience's uncertainty
Visible advice showcases the provider's skill
Controlled demonstrations can precede spontaneous sessions

“people don't know what they want until they see it.”

“the way that you do that is giving them a test run is giving them a taste and showing them how great you are at…”

Business-First and Social-First Founders Need Different Messages

Jasmine contrasts established owners adding social media to an existing business with younger founders building from social media outward. Their resources, confidence, priorities, and pressure points differ, so one generic message cannot speak effectively to both.

Established owners may have teams and proven businesses
Younger founders may see social media as the easiest starting point
Each group experiences different constraints
Copy should reflect the chosen group's pressure points

“they come from a generation where it's leading with social and the business on the backend where the market that you're currently serving is leading…”
Jasmine Star · 05:15

“the way that you speak to the person changes differently based on their pressure points.”

Use Facebook, Google, and Instagram for Different Research Jobs

Different platforms reveal different kinds of customer evidence. Facebook groups support deep community observation, Google and Pinterest work for intentional known-item searches, and Instagram hashtags support exploratory discovery.

Use Facebook groups for depth and vernacular
Use Google when the search target is already known
Use Pinterest for search-based discovery
Use Instagram hashtags as exploratory guides

“Facebook groups are unparalleled.”
Jasmine Star · 20:15

“Google is intent. It's search based when you know exactly what you're looking for.”

Use Slides and Familiar Guests as Instagram Live Training Wheels

New live broadcasters can reduce anxiety by using simple slides as prompts and inviting a known past customer onto the broadcast. Starting with short, controlled sessions builds the confidence and regularity needed for more spontaneous coaching later.

Create prompt slides in Canva or Word Swag
Begin with a five- to eight-minute topic
Accept that few people may attend live initially
Invite a known past customer before accepting strangers
Republish the live so viewers can discover it later

“these slides are like, you know, they're a cane and they're are crushed. Like they really help keep you on track because it is intimidating.”
Jasmine Star · 36:51

“you have to be okay, talking to the one person before a hundred people show up”

Your Favorite Peers May Not Be Your Best Customers

Jasmine separates personal affinity from professional customer fit. The audience a founder enjoys socially may differ from the audience that most needs, values, and can pay for the service.

Choose a customer rather than claiming to serve everyone
Consider whom you genuinely want to help
Compare that desire with who already buys
Accept that personal and professional affinity can differ

“But my question to you is who do you want to serve?”
Jasmine Star · 03:45

“If you're coming to me and saying, I serve everybody, no you don't.”

Become the Solution by Naming the Customer's Pressure Point

A business becomes more relevant when its copy reflects the customer's actual situation and language. Specific pressure points make the path from problem to offered solution easier to recognize.

Describe the customer's current pressure clearly
Use the language associated with that situation
Guide the audience toward a specific solution
Change copy and offers when the target changes

“I want Brandy to be the solution.”
Jasmine Star · 06:37

“The way that you become the solution is if you speak to their language, highlighting the pressure point and guiding them towards the solution.”
Jasmine Star · 06:39
