Thanks for those comments and ideas. Agree with the eyeballs. Recent similar video posts this week brought in 1500 FB and 500 LinkedIn views, but only a few dozen visits to the web page and no sales yet (sad). But "Those are rookie numbers!" lol Need to get that up tenfold.
We're doing a few and I agree that the social media groups are great place to build a following for her. Of course she's not much into that, No Hive account, didn't even have a FB account before I created the store one for her. I'm working on her for that.. lol.
I took a look at your Ryze website the other day. You guys are on a great mission. We used to run a counseling practice, doing a lot of trauma work, addiction, and other similar issues to what you are helping others with. It's a very worthy mission and also feels great personally when you are able to help someone to that next level. Kudo's to you for that!
Thanks so much for looking at our site and your nice words about our mission. I appreciate it.
And it's the 100 for 1 rule. 100 eyeballs for 1 sale/comment/like/etc. So if you haven't reached out to 100 strangers or 100 people haven't seen the site/her work then that's why there haven't been any sales.

Want more clients? More comments? More viral hits? More... well... anything?
WELL, YOU CAN HAVE ALL YOU WANT, BUT YOU MUST RESPECT THE 100-FOR-1 RULE.
This rule states that if you want "one more X", you'll have to reach or interact with at least "100 Non-X."
Why? Because we live in a big, noisy, complicated world full of 8 billion human beings. And whatever goal you're aiming to hit, *99 people out of 100 won't be in a position to connect with it. *Perhaps they're a great fit, but they're busy having lunch & forget about it. Or they're depressed and not in a 'mental space' to engage with anyone. Or they're locked out of their account right now. Many of them will be apathetic, uninterested, or refuse to change their comfortable routines. And on, and on.
You've got to make peace with this. Stop expecting to shatter the laws of the economy when you first launch something.
So many people create something, share something, or offer something, then get discouraged. They'll say: "I only got 1 comment after 100 views! Can you believe it? Business is too hard!" or "I gave away 50 free samples, and didn't get a single customer today!"
It's like... yeah, of course that's how it went. It's 100-For-1.
And I get it. I've been there. I've expected the world to love my valuable stuff, received few comments, then given up. I felt bitter & jaded, thinking "the world just doesn't value my offerings."
But I was wrong, and I would've known better if someone taught me the 100-For-1 rule in school.
And this applies to nearly everything. Even Kim Kardashian understands and respects this rule. Think about this: Kim has 205 MILLION followers on Instagram. Do you know how many Likes she averages on a post? TWO million likes. Even more stunning is how many comments she gets. Care to guess? She averages 10,000 comments on a post. From 205 MILLION followers.
Why? The 100-For-1 Rule.
It applies to all of us. So the next time you want to 'get' something or achieve a goal, keep the rule in mind. Because unless you're reaching multiples of 100 people, 200 people, 300 people... you can't expect ANY results. You don't 'get' to feel down, or discouraged, or disappointed with your creation or society, unless you're reaching hundreds. And it also means that once you've made something, your job isn't done. You need to make sure it's being exposed to hundreds. Every successful person has gone through this. You can either embrace it, or try being some freakish rare exception.
(And there ARE exceptions. When you get good, sometimes it can be 50-for-1, but it's pretty rare, and not something for beginners to aim for.)
So are you following the 100-For-1 rule like the successful people in the business world? Or are you crying in your cornflakes 'cause no one likes your content?
Either way you best remember this rule if you want to succeed in business (or anything!)
I hope that helps.

Ayyy, you're off to a great start! 2000 views is more than a lot of people get, and you're on your way to ten-folding it!
Inspiring people to try new things is a very interesting experience... in my experience, lol. I wish you joy and success with it.
P.S. Thanks for the kind words about our site and mission, and kudos to you for helping others whether through counseling in your past or embroidery in your present! 🙏
Wish you the best as well. The best teachers are those that have experienced and walked the path.
Thanks! And whole-heartedly agreed! 🙂👍🙏
