Episode 24: Part 2: You Don't Need More Followers: What Actually Builds Trust on Social Media with Shannon Bokhoor

In Part 2 of my conversation with Shannon Bokhoor, founder of SocialRx, we’re getting into what actually makes content effective and how to build visibility without becoming obsessed with follower counts or trying to be everywhere.

We talk about why a smaller, loyal audience can be more valuable than a large following, the role of spontaneous and personal content, and how founders can stay involved in their content even when they outsource the heavy lifting. Shannon also shares practical ways to make content creation easier, from using trial reels and simple editing tools to creating a content bank from the questions, misconceptions, and conversations already happening in your business.

We also dive into the difference between creating content that simply sells and content that builds real authority. Shannon shares why having a strong point of view, challenging conventional thinking, and sharing what makes your approach different can help you stand out in a crowded industry. We talk about building visibility through your local community, engaging with other businesses, and using social media to create real relationships rather than just chasing reach.

And we end with one of my favorite takeaways from the conversation: the content you’re most afraid to share may be the content that makes the biggest impact. Sometimes the thing you’re hesitant to say is exactly what someone else has been waiting to hear.
