Author: Michelle Thames August 31, 2026 Duration: 19:06
In this episode, Michelle Thames shares why she’s doing less in September and focusing instead on making her visibility, content, relationships, email, podcast, partnerships, and community work harder. It’s a practical conversation about leverage, intentional growth, and building a business that doesn’t require you to constantly do more.

Ever feel like the rules of social media are written in a language you don't quite speak? Social Media Decoded translates the noise into a clear plan. Michelle Thames, a marketing expert who understands the grind of building something from scratch, hosts these conversations. She moves past theory to focus on the practical moves that actually change things-how a piece of content can attract a dream client, or how to tweak a profile so it starts working for you. Each episode feels like a focused workshop, whether she's dissecting a platform's algorithm, walking through a content marketing funnel, or sharing a story from an entrepreneur who turned followers into a sustainable business. This isn't about viral moments; it's about building a visible and viable operation online. You'll find a direct, no-fluff approach here, designed for anyone ready to move from being just a user of these platforms to becoming a strategic builder on them. For actionable steps on monetization, audience growth, and crafting a brand that resonates, this podcast serves as an essential guide.
