At the 40-ish minute mark, BH is discussing her anxiety and stress over the past year and acknowledges business has been down the past year. Her husband told her she didn't have to work, but she feels like it's a calling. Now she is reminding us that she doesn't have to do it but it's a calling. Oh boy. If it is your calling then for petes sake, out effort into it. Or let it go (my vote because it is so obvious she hates it)

“Jesus didn’t have an LLC.”
OMG! Suddenly she’s an expert on yet another thing.
I’m out. She did some “work” for a week and now she’s healed up. No thank you.
She thinks of customers who want certain products that she used to provide as “opposition”. She calls her customers opinions (that she doesn’t agree with) “negativity”. She says her business is a “burden”.
She doesn’t “have” to do this. La tee freakin’ dah. Neither do I. I’m done with this. I’m no longer a customer. I’m no longer watching her, even for the amusement value. No more posts.
I I already have a good life. I justst want some scrapbooking products.
Bye Felicia.

What the heck did I just listen to? That was the most bullsh*t podcast episode ever. You know it is when Becky Higgins flat out says, “I’m thankful for being emotionally stable.” Like bish, really??? Okay den.

Ok I’m confused. Project life isn’t going anywhere. But not enough people are buying the kits so it makes no sense to keep producing.
So which is it?

"you can look at any social media post to see how responsive I try to be, which is not something I even have to do" (my emphasis)
Good grief, she needs a filter (amongst other things). Just apologize for missing the question, maybe if you really feel you have to, remind people that you're busy, get a lot of comments, and that you're only human, but there's no need to get all bitchy and tell people you're going above and beyond by answering questions about your business on your business instagram! In what world is that "not something you even have to do"?

The app really is flourishing, there are several Facebook groups that are filled with people who use it (me included) and while we are glad it isn’t going anywhere, PL is woefully under marketed and supported.

In what world is that "not something you even have to do"? Honestly, if she were getting trolls regularly and doing her best, I could understand the snark and shit because it's got to get old having people bitch no matter how much you try and interact with people and address as much as possible without never leaving social media...but she's never been THAT way. She took snark free questions about wanting more product and replied with snark...therefore making people talk to her and post on her social media accounts with snark. People wouldn't be bitchy towards her if she weren't bitchy to them in the first place. I have the people and social skills of a rock, but man alive is she worse. You get what you give, Becky.

SM stats dropping like a rock off an AZ hiking path.... Your Documenting Guru @beckyhigginsllc Followers 84,202 Engagement Rate 1.28% AVG Likes 1,027.04 AVG Comments 48.68 For comparison: Shimelle Laine shimelleFollowers 17,278 Engagement Rate 4.29% AVG Likes 652.76 AVG Comments 89.24 So Shimelle has 1/4 of the followers, but 2x the comments. That is ENGAGEMENT! And all social media inside baseball reporting these days points to engagement and IGers who understand their audience. And that's not Becky "I don't even have to do this" Higgins, my friends.

A word of caution re: engagement rates. Free analysis tools do not reflect engagement rates accurately. They don't filter out comments that wouldn't count towards actual engagement. This type of data can't be taken at face value without some sort of deep dive. Just thought I'd point that out.
Also, the larger the account, the lesser the engagement rate in general. That doesn't necessarily reflect a bad investment (because the reach is much wider anyway). Hence the change in marketing and publicity of the past few years. Micro and nano influencers are on the rise in terms of consideration for brands (but they won't replace macro influencers).

My predictions: Next week's second half will be a commercial for the wellness retreat she attended. She will talk about how she has to focus on her health and family. She is attending some branding conference soon...which will lead to a big rebranding (which I think BP is already helping her with) and she will no longer "scrapbook" but "document" using PL but not actively putting out new physical products.

She dropped the second half today. They are hosting a whole week's event at Movara, the wellness resort, in November and are inviting their listeners to join them and they will teach a couple of lectures. They insist they are not making any money off of the event or their hosting. They are also recording a podcast with Heidi Swapp, who inspired BH to go Movara in the first place. Heidi is giving away a week's visit to Movara on her IG also.

Heidi is giving away a week's visit to Movara on her IG also. Lol So Becky crapped all over scrapbooking on NSD on the Internet, THEN publicly called out a customer for asking a question. Pretty much told her entire customer base to shut up & listen. Heidi put up a seemingly heartfelt post about scrapping/memory keeping during NSD, trying to smooth the waves & keep peace & contacted BH and told her ‘girl, go get your head straight if you want a business that’s not circling the drain - this wellness place might help’ And BH still ain’t changing her customer interaction, still hand slapping and being snide, still telling her customers what they should want. You tried Heidi, but some people just won’t change.

Her latest podcast delves into how an anxiety attack (brought on by the NSD incident) impacted her. It's divided into two parts so I don't know how it will end and I'm only 30 minutes in, but she's addressing her side of the incident (somewhat in a vague, not-taking-responsibility kind of way). And here I was wondering what I would listen to this afternoon. I hate to give her 'listens' but I bet this podcast will be a shit show. AND I AM HERE FOR IT.

I listened to the first 30 min this morning when I was getting ready for work and will finish later. She is OVERLY DRAMATIC, VAGUE and DELUSIONAL!!!

The thing is, people ARE buying cards & embellishments for pocket scrapping any where & everywhere, it seems rather popular on IG & other social media. It *should* be simple for the person who first launched pocket scrapping into the main stream to have a profitable line. Because so many other people are.
Communication isn’t a one way street - people are perfectly happy to ask for what they want.
Right now if I were a scrap business I’d be stalking her pages seeing where I could siphon away her customers since she refuses to listen.
I think someone did & the results are at scrapbook.com

Listening to part 2. SHE contacted HS. Not the other way around. She remembered Heidi talking about the resort and called her. Because I am her friend and she is my friend. At least that is how I understood it.

I just have to say this is a fascinating novel of a read for a boring afternoon, lol! The only thing I knew about Higgins was that her name was on some cards I had picked up from Tuesday Morning that looked cute for birthdays! Ahhh the drama that is papercrafting.

OK I am through part one. As someone who has struggled with anxiety and anxiety attacks, I find it HILARIOUS that Becky can have exactly one panic attack and then make such a recovery and come away so enlighten. Its been, what, a month since this started? And she's now an expert on getting through this? Well maybe she needs to teach my therapist her ways so I can finally learn my lesson so these attacks don't happen to me again. Holy batshit. She's crazy.

After listening to Part 2 I feel like Becky is like all the other women on instagram who lose a few pounds in a month and decide they are a 'fitness coach'. They have no real experience or have seen a longevity in her new mindset. Its been a month, Becky.
