With me, it’s as easy as an evening glass of sangria on the back porch with the love of your life. Those same words written to trigger joy might sound like: When your honeymoon plans are *so* good, you’re almost as excited about it as your weddi

There are a whole lot of things you could be posting on social media for travel planning services. But here’s the thing: Posting about hotels, generic facts about destinations, and wishing everyone a “Happy National Sunglasses Day” isn’t working anymore — I’m not even sure it ever did work.   What you want to post instead is content that highlights your ideal client’s pain points and how you’re uniquely positioned to help them, content that shows your expertise and services in action, and content that ultimately sells people on the incredible value of working with you.
