Today we’re kicking things off with two simple but powerful activities—one to help your business stand out, and one to show your pet some love.
1. Share Your Story
Sharing your story is one of the most powerful ways to connect with your audience and humanize your brand. People don’t just want to know what you do—they want to understand the why behind it. What inspired you to start your business? What obstacles have you overcome? What are your passions, values, and the moments that shaped your journey? Whether it’s a written post, a video, or a series of Instagram Stories, opening up about your experiences helps people relate to you on a deeper level. Your story is unique, and sharing it allows you to create emotional connections with your audience, making them feel like they’re a part of your journey.
Being transparent and authentic in your storytelling builds trust, which is essential in any business. People are more likely to support a brand when they understand the real person behind it. Don’t be afraid to share your successes and your challenges. It’s often the struggles and imperfections that resonate the most with people, showing that you’re human and that you’re continuously evolving. Vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness, when it comes to building relationships with your audience.
Tip: If you’re camera-shy or unsure of where to start, try using a photo that represents a key moment in your journey, whether it’s from your early days in business or a milestone achievement. Then, write a short caption with a few important points about why you started your business, what motivates you, or how you’ve grown. Even simple, heartfelt storytelling can have a big impact, and it’s a great way to dip your toes into sharing more personal content. As you get more comfortable, you can experiment with live videos, detailed blog posts, or even podcast interviews to share your story on multiple platforms.
2. Give Your Pet a Treat
Now for the fun part—time to spoil your pet! Whether it’s their favorite store-bought treat or a homemade snack, show them a little extra love today. 🐾 While you’re at it, snap a picture or video of your pet enjoying their treat and share it online!
Remember, you can complete any of the suggested daily activities or choose your own from the Bingo card. Post a picture of your completed Bingo card on any of our Bingo Challenge Facebook or Instagram posts, or bring it with you to the Being Visual in Your Business book launch party Friday. Don’t forget to RSVP.
And of course, there are some fantastic prizes up for grabs, including a signed copy of my book, a fun mug, a private photo session (Florida residents only), 11×14 photo of your pet (Florida residents only), a month in my Create Monthly membership, and a one-hour coaching session! 🎁

What a fun way to kick off the Bingo Challenge! I loved reading your story about how you and your furry friend bonded over treats. It’s amazing how our pets become such a big part of our lives, and this challenge is a great reminder to spoil them a little extra. I can already imagine all the tails wagging and purrs of happiness. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work—your posts always bring a smile to my face! (I miss seeing you on Zoom calls!)

I started my kitten’s Instagram when I got him. But that has sorely been neglected with everything going on.

This is such a unique way to get your story out to others and also add fun with you dog!
