Have you ever spent 20 minutes writing the perfect social media post, hit "Publish," and then… silence?

Maybe you get one or two likes (usually from your mom or your best friend), but otherwise, it feels like you are talking to an empty room.

It’s frustrating. But the truth is, it’s not your fault. It’s the algorithm.

Social media platforms (especially LinkedIn) use computer programs to decide who sees your content. If you don't get likes and comments right away, the computer assumes your post is boring and hides it.

But what if you had a team ready to prove the computer wrong?

What is a "Posting Party"?

A Social Posting Party is simple: It is a "power hour" where a group of us meet on Zoom to work together.

Instead of posting alone, we all post at the exact same time. Then, we spend 15 minutes liking, commenting, and sharing each other's content immediately.

Why is this a great idea?

1. We Wake Up the Algorithm When a post gets 10 or 20 comments in the first hour, the social media platform thinks, "Wow, this must be important news!" As a result, it pushes your post into the feeds of strangers, potential clients, and industry leaders. We create a "viral" effect, together.

2. It Builds Real Connections This isn't just about bots or fake clicks. You are connecting with real people. By reading and commenting on your teammates' posts, you learn about their businesses, and they learn about yours. It is networking that actually pays off.

3. It Keeps You Consistent The hardest part of social media is actually showing up. When you know you have a meeting every Tuesday, you are forced to have your content ready. It’s an appointment for your own success.

You Are Invited!

You don't need to be a tech wizard to join us. We provide step-by-step instructions, and we help everyone get set up. All you need is a computer and something to say.

Stop posting into the void. Come join the party and let’s make some noise together.

📅 When: Every Tuesday ⏰ Time: 5:30 PM CST 📍 Where: Zoom

Career and Business Coaching Frequently Asked Questions

What services does CoreTactic provide it's clients?

CoreTactic offers advanced professional coaching in career development, business growth, leadership, and entrepreneurship. Our goal is to help individuals and companies achieve clarity, strategy, and measurable results. With 25+ years of consulting and 2,500+ clients served, we specialize in actionable plans that create real success.

Why is coaching important for professionals and businesses?

Coaching provides structure, accountability, and outside perspective. Whether you’re looking to transition into a new career, expand your business, or strengthen your leadership skills, the right coaching program accelerates progress and helps you avoid costly mistakes. CoreTactic combines proven methods with personalized guidance.

How does CoreTactic’s approach stand out?

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Each client receives a customized plan built around their strengths, goals, and challenges. Our coaching blends strategic business insights with practical career development, helping professionals and companies scale with confidence.

How can I get started?

Getting started is simple. Schedule a free discovery call at call.coretactic.net. We’ll discuss your goals, outline a plan, and help you decide the best next step. Most clients see clarity and results within the first few sessions.

How can CoreTactic help me build a resume that passes Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS)?

We guide you to create resumes that are both human-friendly and ATS-compliant. That means optimizing with relevant keywords, using clean formatting, structuring sections for easy parsing, and tailoring each resume version for the job you’re applying to. Clients often see better recruiter response rates within weeks.

What is life coaching, and how is it different from career or business coaching?

Life coaching focuses on your overall well-being, values, and fulfillment—not just work or income. Career coaching zeroes in on your job path and professional identity, while business coaching concentrates on growth and strategy. Life coaching integrates mindset, relationships, and purpose with your career and business path for lasting success.

If I already have a business idea, how does CoreTactic help me validate it before launching?

We reduce risk by guiding you through market research, hypothesis testing, minimum viable product (MVP) design, financial modeling, and customer feedback loops. This process prevents wasted effort and ensures your business launches with data-driven confidence.

What kinds of results can I expect from career coaching with CoreTactic, and in what timeframe?

Results often include clearer direction, improved resumes and LinkedIn profiles, more interviews, stronger offers, and faster transitions. Many clients see tangible progress in 4–8 weeks, with momentum building significantly over 3–6 months.

How does business coaching with CoreTactic differ for a startup vs. an established company?

For startups, we focus on idea validation, lean marketing, and MVP development. For established companies, we emphasize scaling, leadership, team building, and process optimization. Every coaching plan is tailored to your stage and challenges.

What if I’m uncertain about what career or business I want to pursue? Can you help me find clarity?

Yes. We use assessments, reflection exercises, and structured exploration to uncover strengths, patterns, and passions. From there, we identify practical, viable directions that align with your goals and lifestyle. You don’t need to have the answers when you start—just openness to explore.

How much time should I expect to invest per week while working with a coach?

Typically 1 coaching session per week (60–90 minutes) and 2–4 hours of focused work or reflection. This structure ensures steady progress without overwhelming your schedule, and we adapt to your availability and goals.

How do you measure the success of a coaching engagement?

We establish key performance indicators (KPIs) such as job interviews, salary improvements, revenue growth, or milestone achievements. We also track qualitative shifts like confidence and clarity. Progress is reviewed regularly and plans adjusted to ensure measurable impact.

Can I combine business coaching and career coaching services?

Yes. Many clients pursue both career and business goals simultaneously. For example, an executive might launch a side business while advancing in their corporate role. We adapt coaching focus as your priorities evolve.

What type of clients do you typically work with, and who is best suited for CoreTactic coaching?

We partner with mid-career professionals, entrepreneurs, executives, and individuals seeking holistic success. If you’re ready to invest time, take consistent action, and want measurable results, you’ll find CoreTactic a strong fit. Transformation requires commitment, and we walk with you every step.
