Today we’d like to introduce you to Jocelyne Shults.
Hi Jocelyne, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstories with our readers?
It all started in 2016 when I moved to Indiana to try new things in life. I was working at a Jewelry store at the time from 9-5 and from 6-11 pm I was working on my side hustle. My dream was to work full-time online but didn’t know-how. So, I started with a blog which led me to find @themrspedersen on Instagram where she taught me all things social media marketing.
From there, I went on a journey to serve others and teach people how to monetize their social media presence. And that’s how Social Savvi Co got started. This was a small agency for business coaches and creative entrepreneurs.
It wasn’t until the beginning of 2017 when I went full time with my online business and boy I was so glad!! This was no longer a dream… it was a reality. It led me to work with some incredible people. To say that a few of those have been featured in @forbes, @medium, and other well-known platforms.
I’m grateful for my journey and currently have an online course that teaches creatives how to grow their brand so they can easily magnetize dreamy clients with an Instagram funnel that converts.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Now, I wish I could say this journey was easy peasy… But the truth is it wasn’t. There were lots of tears, doubts, and times I wanted to quit all of it. I definitely struggled to keep up with algorithm changes, social media trends, and updates. Plus, there was all of this information I had to learn while working my 9-5. I spent a lot of late nights studying, testing, and tweaking things.
And of course, there were clients that just weren’t aligned with my mission. It took some time to realize it was time to let them go. Sometimes letting go can be so hard because you fully rely on this income especially if you’re brand new to this space.
That was probably the biggest thing I had to learn over the past 3+ years.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
Social Savvi Co. is a small agency for coaches and creative entrepreneurs. As a strategist, I share a pretty good understanding of new social media algorithms and help you increase reach and engagement so that it brings in more traffic and revenue to your business.
I provide my clients with accountability. This usually leads to a mindset shift where they actually become the digital CEO of their own company/business.
I also teach my students how to use Instagram in a way that feels aligned for them. Meaning, I bring solutions that help them feel more confident and clear with the work they’re meant to be sharing.
If we knew you growing up, how would we have described you?
I was very quiet and shy all throughout my younger years. It wasn’t until after high school that I was introduced to Network Marketing. While trying this industry out… I got obsessed with entrepreneurship and decided that I was going to go all IN! And I sure did!
