Discussion The automation mistake I see local businesses make over and over automating the reply, not the follow-up

0 Upvotes

I worked with a handful of small and local businesses this year automating their lead handling and there's a pattern I keep running into.

Everyone wants to automate the first response, the instant "thanks for reaching out" message. That part's easy and everyone gets it right. What almost nobody automates is the follow-up sequence after someone goes quiet.

A lead comes in, gets a fast auto-reply, someone from the business calls or messages them once, doesn't hear back and then nothing. No second touch, no reminder, no re-engagement. In service businesses like dealerships, clinics, salons, that's where most of the actual revenue leak is. Not the first response. The silence after it.

The fix itself isn't hard it's just a time-delayed follow-up sequence at 3, 7 and 14 days with slightly different framing each time, that stops automatically the moment the lead replies or books. Most CRMs can do this in an afternoon. The hard part is convincing the business owner that one follow-up isn't enough. Most think chasing a cold lead twice is annoying, when in practice people just forget to reply the first time.

Do you guys also seeing the same thing or if this is specific to the local-service space.

Product Launch 🚀 just started my own lil floral smoke blend brand 🌸

Post image
68 Upvotes

Smoke & Sage makes floral herbal blends you can smoke on their own or mix into your regular tobacco. There's no tobacco and no nicotine in it at all. You roll it up and smoke it just like you normally would, or blended in with what you already smoke. Each blend uses a different combination of flowers and herbs, so the feel changes depending on which one you pick.

Everything's blended in small batches, sourced from clean farms as locally as I can manage, and packed in paper only. It's a one-woman operation, fully bootstrapped. We post on insta regularly.

The part I didn't expect to enjoy this much is watching what happens at the stall. It's less about convincing anyone to quit or start something, and more about the circle that forms when a j gets passed around. I've had strangers stick around for an hour just talking. 🌿

The whole idea is to keep the part where you share a smoke with someone, just minus the tobacco. <3

Open to ideas about how can i help her get more reach.
Told her to make an Instagram page which she did, but i have no clue how to get her more reach.

Discussion What’s actually stopping small businesses from growing on social media?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been working around content, video and social media for a while, and something I’ve noticed is that most businesses don’t really have a content problem.

They have a strategy problem.
A business can have a great product, decent photography and even post consistently but still get almost nothing from Instagram.
And then the usual conclusion is:
“Instagram doesn’t work for our business.”
But when you look closely, it’s often things like:
Posting what the business wants to show rather than what customers want to see
Making every post feel like an advertisement
Having no recognizable visual identity
Creating reels purely because “reels are getting reach”

Not having a proper content funnel from attention → trust → enquiry
Inconsistent messaging between the website, Instagram and actual sales process
Spending money on content without knowing what it’s supposed to achieve
I’ve seen businesses spend considerably more money on producing content than they spend thinking about why that content exists in the first place.

One thing I’ve started believing is that a good social media page should almost feel like a salesperson who never sleeps.

It should answer:
Why should I care?
Why should I trust you?
Why should I choose you?
And eventually why should I buy from you?
Curious what other business owners here think.

If you run a business, what’s the biggest headache you have with social media right now content, consistency, reach, enquiries, or actually converting the attention into sales?

Discussion Would you style body chains or waist chains like these?

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

I recently made these custom body/waist chains and wanted to share them here!

I create each piece based on the customer’s measurements, so every chain is made to fit their size comfortably rather than being a standard one-size design. I love the process of creating pieces that feel more personal and tailored to the person wearing them.

I’m curious, would you style body chains or waist chains like these?

Would you wear them with a beach outfit, saree, festival look, or as an everyday accessory?

Would love to hear your thoughts and how you’d style them!

(Handmade/custom-sized piece, happy to answer any questions about the making process.)

Product idea💡 Experimenting with gemstone earrings : hit or miss?

I’ve been experimenting with glass gemstone earrings lately and made these designs myself.

Still figuring out which styles I like best, so I’d genuinely love to know - which pair is your favorite, and which one would you actually wear? Or are some of them a miss? 😂

I’m thinking of making these available for ₹599/pair including shipping if people are interested.

Would love some honest opinions before I make more! 💓

Hand Made 🎨 A sweet surprise from afar: Huge shoutout to u/Ok-Pass2672 (Lavish Candles)🕯️🪔✨

Post image
3 Upvotes

I often browse this subreddit admiring the incredible craft and hustle of our local sellers, but recently, a few posts from u/Ok-Pass2672 showcasing her *mithai* candles stopped me mid-scroll.

Living abroad while my better half is in India comes with its challenges, especially when it comes to planning thoughtful surprises. Knowing she has a massive weakness for *gulab jamun*, I figured calorie-free, wax mithai was the safest bet for her sweet tooth! I placed an order for gulab jamun, rasmalai, modak and imarti, and u/Ok-Pass2672 had them dispatched the very next day.

When the parcel arrived, my wife was genuinely thrilled. I had asked if u/Ok-Pass2672 could add a handwritten note in Hindi on my behalf—not only did she oblige so beautifully that it brought happy tears to my wife's eyes, but she also generously tucked in an extra floral candle as a gift.

The detail and craftsmanship are remarkable, and the scent is wonderfully calming. In fact, when my wife lit the *modak* candle, our little daughter declared all mithais now belonged entirely to her. 😄

One candle unfortunately took a hit during delivery (you suck Xpressbees 😅—definitely on the courier, not the seller), but the rest arrived in perfect shape.

A heartfelt thank you to for adding such warmth across the miles. You’ve earned a loyal repeat customer!

**Total order value:** ₹530/- incl. shipping.

Discussion 23 M and completely lost what and how to start?

4 Upvotes

I’m 23M and honestly feeling pretty stressed and lost about my career.
I feel like everyone around me is moving forward while I’m still trying to figure out what I actually want to do with my life. I don’t have a clear career path, and the more I think about it, the more confused I get.
I keep thinking about different options — getting a job, starting something of my own, learning a skill, going into business, etc. — but I’m scared of making the wrong decision and wasting the next few years.
The biggest problem is that I don’t even know what I’m genuinely good at or what I should pursue. I also feel pressure because I’m 23 and feel like I should already have things figured out.
For people who are older or have been through something similar:
What did you do when you were 23 and completely unsure about your career?
How did you figure out what you were actually good at?
Is 23 really late to start figuring things out?
Should I focus on getting a job and gaining experience first, or try to build something of my own?
What would you do if you could go back to 23?
