Here’s Why This Matters:
• Referrals don’t work if your socials suck.
A partner says “Check them out” and sends someone to your profile. If it’s a mess? You just lost money.
• AI is watching.
Google’s AI, ChatGPT, Perplexity—they’re all scraping your bios. If they’re mismatched, confusing, or non-existent, you're invisible.
• You’ll regret not claiming your handle.
Especially when you launch something new and @YourBrand is now owned by a 13-year-old who posts memes.
The Setup (Use This Checklist or Delegate It to Your VA):
You need:
• A clean brand kit (headshot, logo, banners)
• A 150-character bio:
“I help [who] get [what] without [pain]. 📥 Free cheat sheet ↓”
• A Link-in-Bio page (Beacons, Stand.Store)
• 1Password or LastPass to store logins + backups
Then go platform by platform and stop half-assing it:
Facebook (Personal + Business)
• New banner + headshot
• Updated bio + link
• First post: selfie + poll → “Do you get more biz from ads 🤑 or referrals 🤝?”
• Business page: "Book Now" button goes to Calendly. Done.
Instagram
• Paste bio, add link, switch to Pro account
• Highlight folder: “Start Here” (drop your freebie)
• First post: 15-sec B-roll reel — “Building a 30-Day Referral Engine”
LinkedIn
• Custom URL + clean banner
• Headline formula: Avatar ✅ Result ✅ Proof
• Creator Mode on + first truth-bomb post: “DM ‘Engine’ for the blueprint”
X/Threads
• Paste same assets
• First post: “Chasing cold leads is so 2015. Warm intros or bust.”
• Pin that thing.
TikTok (Do it even if you hate it)
• 80-char version of your bio
• First video: B-roll + VO — “30 days from zero to referral machine”
YouTube
• Upload banner + logo
• Add long-form About section (750 chars)
• Link all your other socials
• First post: cheat-sheet drop + clean B-roll
Google Business Profile (non-negotiable)
• Visit business.google.com
• Use exact NAP (Name-Address-Phone)
• Upload logo, cover, 5 behind-the-scenes photos
• Write your bio + call-to-action
• Request verification
• First post: Truth-bomb + image + lead magnet link
Pinterest (because AI scrapes this too)
• Convert to biz account
• Create boards: Referral Tips, Real Estate Scripts, VA Productivity
• Pin 3 pieces of content that link back to your quiz or freebie
• Schedule pins with auto poster (3/week, hands off)
Lock It Down:
• Turn on 2FA
• Store every login and backup code in your vault
• Screenshot every profile in incognito
• Make a Canva collage of all of them and file it under: Proof I’m Not Playing Around
How I Learned This:
I used to throw up random bios, upload the wrong headshot, forget to add a link… it looked like a middle schooler ran my brand.
Then one day, I got serious.
Same bio. Same pic. Same link. Everywhere.
Took my VA one afternoon. We screenshotted everything and archived it.
Now when someone checks me out, I don’t lose credibility—I gain it.
✅ Done When You’ve Got:
✔️ Consistent branding across Facebook, Insta, LinkedIn, Google
✔️ All links work
✔️ First post live on every platform
✔️ Your VA has everything stored, secured, and screenshot
✔️ Collage created for your “I’m everywhere” post tomorrow
